ChapterMasters.com is getting closer to having a ChapterMaster. Here of some photo’s of the Metal Calgar model I’ve been repainting. I found this model on ebay with a basic paint job and thought I could give it some love. Unfortunately I didn’t spot the missing sword so may end up selling it and buying another one.
I’ve tried some false reflections on the armour. The golds and cape are not finished.
Captain Jackson
It’s officially here, in an almost surprising, but completely unheard of move. Games workshop have dropped a new compendium and a stack of flyer bundles on to the website for direct order only.
Most of the bundles consist of sets of 2 or 3 flyers for each race, these bundles cost between £55 and £90 GBP each. The Space marines get an extra bundle with a Storm Raven Dreadnought and Tactical Squad for £101. Imperial Guard only get one bundle consisting of 2 Valkyries and 2 Storm Trooper squads priced at £133.
The GW website states there are “new bestiary and army list entries for the following codexes: Black Templars, Blood Angels, Dark Eldar, Grey Knights, Imperial Guard, Necrons, Orks and Space Marines”
For now we can only wonder what the changes will be for the codex’s which already have the units listed, such as the Storm Raven in the Grey Knights codex, storm talons perhaps?
Death from the skys is only available in English. Death from the skys is not limited edition.
Let the dakka dakka continue.

Ben is still on rumour strike. It’s been more than a week since the rumours section has been updated. I don’t think this one can be ignored though. So I’m going to force you to read it. No I am, open your eyes and read! ok I’ll stop writing this dross and get on with it.
Could we really be on the verge of the summer of flyers before the winter is done?
from Kroothawk posted on Faeit
“A new 40k supplement book will be released on 16th February:
“Death from the Skies” (26€, mail order only, chance of being in English only).
More when I know more. But it certainly sounds like a flyer supplement.”
Ben had predicted through patten we would see a Dark Angel campaign book at this point? Death from the skys. You could take that either way, still there are other rumours indicating this if for flyers though.
from DarkWarrior1981 on Warseer
“This is not as exciting as people may think. I saw the advert for the book at a local store; It contains only rules for fliers still on sale or with a codex entry (the Dark Eldar bomber is in), some fliers have their rules updated to 6th edition (whatever this means exactly). The only thing actually new is, that the Stormraven is now available to Codex Space Marines and Black Templars as well. Also you will find the flier rules from Crusade of Fire and new missions. The book will be on sale (no pre-order) from 16th of February, is direct only (so not from your FLGS), english language only and will not be limited stock.”
The shocking news (if true) is that the Strom Raven is going to be available to Codex marines and Black Templers. So it’s only Space Wolves that are forced to look to Forge world for a flyer (Dark Angels if they want a flying transport). Does this indicates the wolves may have something else in development??? or just are not imbracing the new technology in keep with their background. Is the Codex Storm Raven more shocking than the lack of new flyers in this supplement nar prephaps that does take the carrot. Ok there may be a new Dark Eldar Bomber. So one book for one flyer??? I also wonder what 6th edition updated rules look like, Hull points???
If you are not a Dark Eldar player, you might have stopped reading by now, but don’t discard this as an meaningless release. The one sure good thing about this, is that your not going to need to take what is probably a very tatty looking White Dwarf along to games. I for one also have faith in the boys at the studio to put out a fantastic book full of lovely pictures and warm and fuzzy background.
Jon signing off.
Below the menu for the ever popular Ultramarines page above, you will find a selection of Games Workshop Captain models with designs dating from 1990 to 2012. (or you can press here http://chaptermasters.com/ultramarine/todays-pictures-ultramarine-captains-gallary/ ) I think my favourite is still the 3rd edition model with the jump pack. Which one is yours?
Veteran Sergeant Centurius
The Legion of the damned are not believed to have any formal chapter organisation. One figure has on occasion been witnessed to direct other squads and be accompanied by what some consider a body guard. Veteran Sergeant Centurius is believed to be the only Veteran Sergeant within the ranks of the Legion of the Damned. He carries an artefact that bears striking resemblance to the Animus Malorum, which belonged to ChapterMaster Stibor Lazaerek of the Fire Hawks Chapter. Some quote this as evidence that the Legion of the Damned is in fact all that is left of the Fire Hawks Chapter, some speculate that the Centurius found the artefact in the warp, other believe he came across it by far more sinister means.
Unofficial Rules for Sergeant Centuries based on the original rules from White Dwarf 195 can be found here Sergeant Centurius 2013 . These rules do not have Games Workshop approval so please check with your opponent before using them. These rules are in the spirit of the original, they are not a carbon copy with updated points values.
