Tyranids:
New Biovoire model. Spiky, looks like its a very stable firing platform, spore mines stored in the back. Anyways, makes sense for for them to release the artillary unit with city of the damned.
New "Named" Lictor. Now, the designers said they wanted to make the tyranids less unique, so they took out old one eye and the red terror, so this makes no sense to release a named lictor. Anyways, rumored to be a lictor that's been cut off form his hive fleet for a long time now, stalks the city for prey.

I heard there will be new modular cityfight terrain, which will be what the mega-battle table at GD will be on.
Those models are sweet, Luong.

All right new shiny pictures. Customisable buildings for the new Cities of the Dead, and first pic of the new guard to be released with the book, the Vostroyans. I believe it is their command unit known as the "firstborn" As a side note, if you want to see the actual buildings in person, just be nice to the guys at the Battle Bunker and they'll probably show you if you ask a lot of questions ;D

I figure it would come in a huge box of all the stuff, probably about $50-70.

The hugh box is around $90 I believe. For each set you can make big buildings or smaller ones and get more. So the $90 set might have enough to cover a regular board, atleast that's what I have been told.

Well from what was from portent they said they could no longer do the costs so the head dude ended it. But a bunch of the underling people started up warseer. Well that is what i read when i stumbled upon some page saying portent wasn't around anymore.
YEAH!!!! I get to see someone play dark eldar really poorly like the time they were facing Necrons in one of the other battle reports.

Matt you talking about dark eldar? I think there only two worthless units, hellions and Grotesques (they were half way decent in the last edition, I still didn't take any). I mean they could use some more diversity based on one of the GW stories they are older than the craftworld eldar. So I mean it would be nice if they were as diverse as the eldar and based on these new codexs they are comin out with if they come out with a dark eldar codex it might be half way decent. Hey matt I think you would love this story it is on the UK site uk.games-workshop.com/darkeldar/torturer/ Told me more about the dark eldar than all the stories in the codex combined and info on my favorite character go VECT!!!!

The Eldar always were before the Dark Eldar, much like Space Marines before Chaos Space Marines. Both fell from the same cause: Chaos. Except in the case of the Eldar, they formed Slaanesh. Dirty rotten pieces of pointy eared ecstasy! What he talks about in his story is when he was an original Eldar, he still thinks he is...just different. Much like in the Eisenhorn trilogy, he starts as a puritan and goes radical, but doesn't "feel" the change simply because of everything.
I like fluff. Especially when it contradicts itself. Link me the story that you mention, so I can add it to my collection of idiocies of GW. Although, fluff-wise, there aren't many that I've found, which is impressive. I guess it's the one good thing GW can do, ha.

I would have to agree with you. They damn need more diversity since they are eldar, but EVIL. Wouldn't they create even more powerful combinations just to torture and kill everyone? I think they would have as much if not more than Eldar. Should be interesting to see what they do with them.
