GW won't sell conversion bits, they scrapped their spare bits service years ago which left a void for companies like Chapterhouse to fill.

Fantasy Flight would be more than a little ticked off if GW majorly screws around with the Guard considering the Only War RPG came out only a few months back.

It's all pretty rumour-y.

The information my cursory search is likely to be mainly bollocks.

TBH I feel it'll just be more of GW's "they're still there but good luck getting models for 'em" approach that they've taken up until now.

It's a bit of a shame that the heyday of the different regiments is basically well and truly gone.

When the fuck was that, anyway?

Mid nineties to early two-thousands, with 2nd and 3rd?

And the fact that people still use the models is possibly a bit of a missed opportunity for GW. But then I don't know the sales numbers and shit - maybe they aren't selling enough for it to make a lot of sense to even keep the making the models or have book space devoted to models they're not selling. Let alone designing new models.

Alright, I have the bits I need to build up two of my projects:

A unit of 5 'gunslinger' vanguard veterans with jump packs and dual grav pistols for lolz, and a group of 10 bolter armed death company, also with jump packs! The death company will also have a power fist and a power sword in the unit for more awesomeness. I can't wait to get these guys all built up and prettified.

Bolter armed death co. FTW. I've got 10 myself, although mine don't have the jump packs.

Well, I'm starting up an Only War campaign for some friends, who should primary enemy be?

If you liked that they killed Cyrene, though, you have no heart.

It's a shame about Cyrene but Xaphen's death made me very happy.

Well, he wasn't very nice, but I didn't hate him, either. I think he provided a good insight into Chaplains in general.

I hated him nearly from the start. I was hoping he'd die for quite a while...

In fealty of Max Barry, our undying lord, and by the grace of the Golden Computer Chair, I declare threadlock upon the nationstates thread of The Warhammer 40k/Fantasy discussion thread. I hereby sign the death warrant of an entire thread, and consign a million posts to oblivion.

May Barryan justice account in all balance. Max Barry protects.

It is nationstates'er nature to seek culpability in a time of threadlock. It is a sign of strength to cry out against the 500 page limit, rather than to bow one's head and succumb. Inevitably, many shall fault the hands upon the banhammer that felled the thread: the NS moderators. But the moderation team merely performs the duty of its office. To further fear them is redundant. To hate them, a warnable offence. Those more sensible will place responsibility with those who forced the hands of the moderators. With some fortune, they may foster this hatred into purpose, and further rule their own posts by coming to Max Barry's service.

Yet ultimately, it was Samuraikoku who set these events into motion, with a single blow from his button, Post New Thread.

Disclaimer: I am not actually trying to imply that hating the mods is a warnable offence. : p

Great post man, 10/10 would quote again.

So I let my party build their regiment for this Only War game...

I find that several of the Traitor Legions have quite good reasons to turn against the Imperium - the Iron Warriors and Word Bearers, for instance. The Emperor isn't really the brightest parent, and that's before we start about Magnus...

As Lorgar wisely says, the Emperor is incapable of trust.
