Tämmöistä tietoa yleensä harrastuksesta :
Yesterday i was at the Italian Gamesday.
During the seminar, beside the 2nd wave of 40K orks, Alessio Cavatore showed some pics of the new Dark Elves characters to be released in january 2009: the dreadlord with great weapon (the one we have already seen in the new army book), a new female dreadlord with additional hand weapon, another new hero with a sea dragon cloak and a mounted character on dark steed.
After the seminar I talked to Alessio who confirmed the next releases in the pipeline: Lizardmen for Warhammer, Imperial guard for 40K and a secret Lord of the Rings project he could not talk about.
He told me he recently developed a new game called Shuuro for his own game company describing it as a blend of chess and a wargame like Warhammer 40000. I found the idea rather interesting.
He also confirmed that he won't be the author of the new Skaven army book...
EDIT - a few other bits i forgot to mention earlier:
- Dark elves shields for spearmen/crossbowmen with various symbols sculpted on them to be released january 2009 along with the new characters. I dunno if they will be mail oreder only.
- Jes Goodwin confirmed the death of the Squats (he claimed to be the one behind their demise). I know it's 40k-related but it's worth mentioning.
- Jes stated that Chaos Dwarves won't disappear, they will be developed when GW will have more time and resources. Oh, and no more big hats on models.
