| Oh my god. That Sanguinus is insane. Also... the Fratricide at Istvan III.... I can't exactly tell who it is.... Obviously a Luna Wolf and a Death Guard...but who?
Also, I realize it looks awesome, but I just couldn't get excited about that Tau model that got a silver. I don't know what it was... | |

| That Sanguinus is uttery fantastic! Could the Luna Wolf possibly be Garviel Loken? | |

| See...that's what I was thinking / hoping, but I could've sworn good ole' Garviel had hair...? Not to mention I really can't remember any epic battle between he and a Death Guard on Isstvan III. Hmmm... | |

| ok seriously, all this pre-heresy is getting annoying. Are we playing Warhammer 30,000? I mean the models are sweet, but that's all the rage right now. Annoying! yes...I need some cheese with my wine! | |

| It's a World Eater not a Luna Wolf. Fighting a Deathguard marine. By the time Istvaan III rolled around they were the Sons of Horus anyway. - Quote :
- Annoying!
Is it really that upsetting? | |

| blarg! It is annoying! They should just release a Warhammer 30K supplement. And then make Space marines 5x their current size! | |

Oh, you're right. I see the mouth on the kneecap now. I still like to think of the loyalists as Luna Wolves... | |

| My big beef is all these good figures and somebody can't get good lighting on them for photos. Really bad shadows on a lot of the figures.
PreHeresy stuff is OK but I realy don't get the "True Scale" marines. What a lot of effort to have your figure be 4mm taller. Totally unrecongnizable on the table.
I mean, I have old RT marines that are considerably smaller compared side by side but 2 ft away they all look the same. |

I was going to do the "True Scale" marine silliness with the space wolves. Then I got into it, and saw all the work that goes into it. It was like "WTF? Seriously?" Then I got one 80% done. Put him on the table...at the 4' rule, I could barely tell the difference. So I scrapped the project and did what no-one else is doing anymore....regular space marines! Just not worth the effort...and since I don't paint to GD level, it seemed a little silly! | |

| Not a big deal, some players just do it because they like the look. Luckily it has no effect on anyone else, and some of the results are fantastic imo.
Same goes for the Pre-Heresy stuff.
@Witt: Don't the Sons of Horus wear green armor? Not sure but i thought it was different from the white/grey of the luna wolves.
Also the blue shoulders and backpack are a dead give away that he is a world eater without the mouth on the leg. | |

| "I think the Sons of Horus wear what...a pale green Armor with gold Eye of Horus on it?"
In "False Gods" there's a passage on page 37 where Loken refers to his newly repainted armor with a greenish sheen.
Yeah, after looking a little closer at the fig, you can see the world inside the jaws on his knee pad. Also the number 8 on the back of the jet pack, Worldeaters for sure. | |
