I just got home from holiday and had a nice little parcel waiting for me.

yes, it was a squad of death corps shouting "PAINT ME!!!" with a deafening roar.
I just hope that I do them justice, they look fantastic :D

If I don't murder them with really bad painting I will try to get some pics up
please dont give me an idea for a new army because I will probably start collecting it
my 40k stuff including Tau, Dark Eldar, Harlequins, and Black Templar... oh and it looks like Eldar as well now and a lucky escape from White Scars ;)

Finally made my order.

72 guys. six infantry squads and two heavy weapons teams. (las and bolter)

I'm impatient and can't wait for forge world to release the storm troops and command squad so I'll make my own.  I bet will be released after the holiday season anyways. or tomarrow because i just ordered them.

Might have wanted to hold off on that. They are releasing more Infantry squads. Though if you're overflowing with money that shouldn't be a problem.

Aye, they're saying at least two more Infanty Squad sets as part of the other stuff we know, also according to the latest newsletter a transport option, cant think of its name off hand now and my email servers down :P

EDIT: Its gonna be called the Centaur, also talk of towed artillery and of course the Storm Troopers and Death Riders we already know about. ;D

Last week I ordered a squad along with the bits I need to start my armoured company (and to bring the total up to £100 for the free delivery).  Assuming I like the DKK models "in person" I will be ordering a bunch in December (to get the free delivery still) regardless of what has or has not been released.  12% off beats a small bit of variety, though I hope they bring something good out by then (command squad or vehicle upgrade parts would be my favourite).

Well since imperial armor 5 will be released around this time next year forgeworld probably won't release much more until at least January. they have to save something or most of it for the months leading up to the release.

My infantry squads arrived this morning and they realy are lovely models, very few bubbles, moldlines and little warping on the sprues though I did have a gun sprue with some damage but FW being FW I've just got off the phone to em and a replacement sprue is on the way.  :)

They look really nice all in all, if anyone had any doubt dont doubt lol, just get some!  ;)

As for releases yeah no doubt the releases will be staggered over the course of the next 12months, you can bet they'll have something more out for christmas if nothing else though.

A Centaur.....Now that's a name I haven't heard in a LONG LONG Time.  ;)

I'm not 100% sure but I thought that GW once did stats for a Centaur back around WD 100. I'll have to dig thru my Archives and see if they are there. They might be there but for Epic. Either way it sounds cool, can't wait to see what they put out.

Has it been confirmed that IAV5 won't be out till Fall 07"? That's a long time for anything coming from GW or FW. I thought it was more around Spring 07"

Well I ordered mine from the HQ on Saturday the 14th so its take 10 days to get here, of that postage would be about 2-3 days, if they send yours by airmail I'd assume maybe an extra 3-4 days on my experiences of it, if its done by surface mail could be an added week or two by my best guess.

I'm short on money unfortunately.  I think I'll wait until IA5 comes out and buy that to see what they are like.  But, good luck Kross with your Korp.  Post pics when your done!

Forge World has released a new infantry squad for the Death Korps. These ones are in firing poses and also come with a Grenade launcher.

Wow those certianly look neat. Can't say i didn't see that coming though. The lascannon squad of my order arrived on monday. Since the rest of my order is out of stock and I have to call forgeworld to send ask them to send a replacement sprue for lascannon energy pack for the lascannon advancing team, as they sent me a double of one of the firing teams, I'll probably ask if they haven't sent the rest of my order yet to switch a couple of the squads to those firing ones.

I wonder what 'pose' the third squad will take on, since we've got advancing and firing now, maybe assaulting? I dont know  ???

My guess would be Entrenched. Something along the lines of being in standing firing pose, or shooting from the ground pose, to maybe being at ease or looking out with their weapons on their backs. Since I hear there is a new entrenchment set coming out too.

Yes, I saw I picture of the entrenchment terrain somewhere.  It looks sick.  I can't wait to see what else the come up for the Death Korp.  Excellent work so far by the boys at Forge World!

These are just simply amazing. I was getting back into guard with Cadians. I've already a large Steel Legion force (which doesn't even compare now to these). Christmas is right around the corner, however.

I'll guess Entrenched as well, more of the crouching positions we all love. Thing is, which special weapon?

My guess would be they will do two more squads, one with melta, one with plasma.  I reckon melta will come next, but only because everyone will want plasma more ;)  What I want to know is will there be any more releases before the free delivery ends?
