Forge World Newsletter #184


really nice Epic airfield...

++++ MESSAGE BEGINS ++++

Hello Again,

Hot on the heels of Monday`s preview, I have another newsletter for you with info on what Forge World will be doing at Games day UK, and even more new stuff to show you. Meanwhile here at Forge World the preparations for the day continues at a feverish pace (a little too feverish perhaps, as last newsletter’s PDF experimental rules can attest! These have now been sorted out, sorry for any confusion).

Thanks
Alan Bligh

Forge World At Games Day UK 07

First up I have some more details for you about what Forge World will be doing at Games Day UK. You will be able to find our usual sales stand and about as much stock as we can cram in the back of a large articulated truck, by the entrance door F1 in the Forum Hall (where we were last year). Also present will be our entire studio team who have their own stand nearby and will be happy to answer questions as well as show our new models. They have also created a fantastic Siege of Vraks and Aeronautica Imperialis air base display boards which will be on show. You also be able to see some of our ‘work in progress’ designs, among which you will find one very large model indeed….

We will also be running participation games of Aeronautica Imperialis in 40K scale in a special gaming area near our sales stand. This idea which we first introduced at out Open Day earlier in the year has proved very popular, so if you want a chance to do battle in the skies with some big planes, big bases and big dice do come and sign up for a game early on.

Tactica Aeronautica

First previewed a few newsletter ago, Tactica Aeronautica the first expansion book for Aeronautica Imperialis is now available for pre-order here for release on the week commencing the 8th of October and the first 500 copies will be signed, and I can confirm we should have some copies for sale at Games Day UK. Tactica is a brand new 128 page colour hardback that expands the game and features new aircraft, scenarios, rules and lots of hobby material as well as a brand new campaign narrative the Typha-IV conflict, depicting a desperate air war fought between the Imperium and the Tau Empire, and a variant campaign system allowing you to re-create conflict and determine the victor for yourselves.

You can find pictures of the cover and some sample page spreads Here

New Show Only Model! Ogryn Berserker with Death Korps Victim

As well as this year`s other Games Day special models, the Imperial Thunderbolt Pilot and the Ork Skwadron Commander, we have another new special model for sale at Games Day UK, a Renegade Ogryn Berserker with Death Korps Victim which you can see Here. This great model designed by Mark Bedford really does have so much character and drama to it, as well as brutally brings home just how big and nasty those renegade Ogryns are!

This model will only be available at shows only, in limited numbers, and may not be separately reserved.

Aeronautica Air Base Models



Also available to pre-order for release the week commencing the 8th of October, is our fantastic new Aeronautica Imperialis Air Base designed by Phil Stutchinskas. As you can see from the picture Here, these models have a fantastic level of detail on them, and of course are perfect for your games of Epic 40,000 as well as Aeronautic Imperialis, and are also tailor-made for use with the new campaign in Tactica Aeronautica.

The Air Base is available in the following component parts:

Imperial Landing Pad -Small
Imperial Landing Pad -Large
Airbase Control Tower
Airbase Accessories
