Are Sartosan Vampires Going to be Next?

August 25, 2011 by beerogre

If anyone is lucky enough to have the latest White Dwarf, you'll notice that the last page has a new teaser page instead of the typical coming soon.

The picture is of a Vampiric Pirate captain... but what does this mean?

It the return of Man-O-War or could it be the finecast release of the Sartosa Vampire and crew?

The link to the Sartosa is still live on the GW website... who can say... it's a nautical mystery!

Maybe it is Dogs of War? Would be pretty awesome to see that old line bought back to life.

doesnt much look like a vampire pirate, more like a frilly collar generic gothic vamire. the zombie pirate is neat though

Im beginning to dislike the look of GWs miniatures more and more.. which is good because they dont deserve any more of my cash than absolutely necessary 😛

This is a fairly old model in terms of GW stuff I think actually. But it would be interesting to see what they could do with the new spat of movement they have worked into their models.

I think DoW would be way too much to wish for. But if it was, it might give me the kick in need to play fantasy again!

But i wouldn’t have thought WD would have the Vampire Pirate on the backpage if it wasn’t related to something big in the next issue.

I got the impression it was some sort of naval game, perhaps a revamp of man ‘o War as per the Space Hulk a couple of years ago.

I always likes the rules for that game, so its probably wishful thinking.

I don’t think it’s got anything to do with Man O’War, because;
1. I can’t see the connection between 28mm and 1:1200(-ish) ships
2. There were no undead in Man O’War

Connection between 28mm models and 1:1200 ships that is …

Besides, the last thing GW wants right now is a game distracting buyers from Fantasy. So I think DoW are more likely.

it will be a ship game

Dogs of War has been a dead line for about 7 years now, no rules support, minimal amount of figures

I am hoping that it is cool pirate ships and maybe some monsters and a rewrite of man o war

so we can spend the winter going YAAAARRGGHHHHHH

Wheres me bottle of rum and thinking we are Capt Jack Sparrow, 🙂

You are all wrong… It’s obviously gonna be a pirate themed Mordheim set in the city of Sartosa 😀
