The book is very high quality and the gloss pictures are very helpfull. For the most part I give it a thumbs up worth the cost of admission.
Why did you get your copy already? I want mine, and I preordered it!
But Uriel its always been that way matey, IA and the likes, as they are large glossy books of new smell goodness, they arnt going to sell many so the price increases :(
Could always wait till someone scans it into the comp and puts it on a torrent site ;) haha you'd get the tank goodness but not the smell :(
Darkstar
2) Is the part on tools and equipment useful for international customers, like in Switzerland we don't get that Klear stuff? In other words, are the descriptions detailed enough that I can go and hunt for a similar product in our stores if I can't get the exact brand of something?
2). I believe they explained it clearly enough that no matter where you are you can get something that will work the same way. They show you a large two page spread of the items they used, and the picture is clear enough you can read the descriptions on the respective bottles. While this may sound a bit tedious, you can figure out what they are, and what you can substitute for that if you don't have access to that particular brand. Be wary though, just because it has the same name doesnt always mean it will work the same exact way. As bigred always says caveat empor.

Maybe they are big/flat enough to look like rivets.
Now! Count the number of Heavy Support! I mean it! This could be VERY important!
LAND RAIDERS HAVE ALWAYS COUNTED TOWARDS THE HEAVY SUPPORT EVEN IF THEY'RE A DEDICATED TRANSPORT!
or have I missed something.
*sigh*
Can I just ask how you found out?
"one terminator squad in the army may select a land raider of any type as a dedicated transport. (see Heavy Support fot points costs)."
also
"one terminator assualt squad in the army may select a land raider of any type as a dedicated transport. (see Heavy Support fot points costs)."
Just to clear up where it comes from.
The last codex was vague on this issue. It also did not specify whether Crusaders can be taken, which is weird because they are built even more so for carrying units.
I like that they state that we can select a land raider of "any type".
For the crusader I never really saw the point in having transport 16 seeing as youcan't take 2 squads.
And by the end of Shelley's book, you just love the big lug.
That big lug will not be welcome to my beer, (neither will most Brits barring Ultra and Nurglespuss) etc. I'd guess that we are just arguing semantics, but I thought I should make myself clear... ;)
I'm up to being rated a zero. I guess some folks might be warming to me! Have no fear, Ultra, I'm sure to find someone to piss off in a week or so. I shall return to the land of negative ratings soon enough!!!!
If they did count towards Heavy Support, there would never be a reason to take them as a dedicated transport (or to have that option in the books), since a HS LR wouldn't have the limitations on which squads it could transport that a DT one would...
Dedicated transports always count as part of the same FOC 'slot' formation as the unit they're taken for. A Rhino taken for a Tac. Squad is a Troops unit, a Land Raider taken for a Term. Squad is an Elites unit, etc.
Anything extra you have to do for paint adhesion?
Order delivery seem to be pretty quick.
Ordered this book, a Cobra II and some other stuff to get to the free shipping point; ordered on a Thursday AM. At my house 3+ days later on a Monday afternoon.
Kleer is a floor polish varnish and its acrylic and mixes well with inks tho not tried it with new washes. It dries quickly and leaves shiney finish. Yes you can paint over it with no problem. Kleer is made by the Johnson & Johnson Group here in the UK.
To clean resin i always use a fine cleaning powder like Ajax, an old tooth brush plenty of water and like it suggests in the book sanding blocks. Also when cleaning resin with sanding blocks and files etc always wear a mask resin dust is nasty stuff.
This should remove the releasing agent and leave fine scoring on the resin which gives undercoat a surface key. Also allow undercoat good 24hrs to dry before you start painting model.
