Im not a fan! Forgeworld just seem to be churning out a lot of very meh stuff over the past while, basically variations on a theme to be honest. Is there really anything new to this pack? In my opinion no! Considering that there is so much in both the 40K universe and the fantasy world that forgeworld could be producing this really is a bit of a let down.

The flamer tank looks half done, like there’s supposed to be something supporting it but they forgot, and you don’t even get the wire/rod for the vox antenna, plus the kit actually costs more than the models it converts- an £18 kit to tart up a £15.50 set of models. The only good thing is the plasma and melta squads, at £12 they’re at least a tiny bit cheaper than the metal ones that frankly don’t look right, are often miscast as packed one of each in a blister, but even that is still a conversion pack even though its… Read more »
