...does anyone else feel like that's a waste of money?

Seriously...they look so boring...

Yeah, I agree Harrison. The same respirator helmet and a new backpack.

They need to make more Elysians instead of all these half-assed Cadian add on packs.

I second that.  ;)
All the Emperor requires of us guardsmen is that we stand the line and we die fighting. It is what we do best. We die standing.

I like the new cadian conversion sets. They would make great looking Vets w/Carapace conversions if your looking to run your vets like that. The Special weapons are the same ones as the ones from Taros, except for the hose running into the helmet. These are nice sculpts and new Malcador is hot! I like the big flame cannon that's really cool. :)

That's what I was thinkin', they would make nice Grenadiers. Painted with a diffierent scheme and they'll be my Snowtroopers. Oh look, they got three plasmaguns, how nice!

Admittedly, it still doesn't look all that impressive, though. Especially since it looks as though you can't change the head's angle...

But hey, Imperial technology, huh? Attach a backpack unit to your chest armour, and you'll be warm on Hoth =)

I think the new Cadians are ok - not great but ok.

I think there will be more IG stuff. Something that will be more specialized for cold weather conditions. :)

Looks like we got a few more kits along with the new hostile troop squads....

Plasma SWS

Melta SWS

Tank Crew

Cadian Army Command Squad

The new SWS Squads look cool, the tankers seem like a rehash of previous older kits....the new command squad look cool with the rebreather mask.

More Cadian releases. I can already hear the Xenos players baying for blood.  :D

But they are still the same models...just with rebreathers... I mean is anyone else outraged by this? I certainly am.

I agree. The only really interesting model in the Cadian squad is the officer. That is it. Not bad models but nothing remarkable that would make me purchase these figures. Maybe for a new guard collector, but folks with plenty of bits laying around really don't benefit form this addition (in my humble opinion).

The officer from the command squad looks good, but I can't see anything else particularly brilliant there.

The already make rebreathers for Cadian troopers, so these models aren't really that different to models they already have, apart from the backpacks and slight tweaks to the armour.

I can't say I like them, but then again I'm more of a DKoK man myself.

I've always wanted to do a snow-themed army, but I hesitated because, how do the soldiers keep warm? How would they look like, if they didn't use fur coats like the Valhallans do?

I think that's what I like about these Cadians, I can do a snow-themed army, now that this question has been answered. I'm not in a hurry to snap them up, but it's good to take note of, should I start that project.

Looks like FW is throwing us a bone today! We got a new heavy transport that fills the gap between a Chimera and the Gorgon! I like the look of it, and being fully enclosed makes it look better then the open topped Gorgon! :)

Shock Therapy time troopers.....The new Rapier Laser Destroyer is out on the FW site! The new rules are very cool....I have posted the PDF on the FW Gear post and here. Time to go into my armory and dig out my old Laser Destroyers....Maybe even get one of these new factory models....

Every Guard variant with the exception of the Elysian and D-99 list has access to this baby! Oh well, maybe next time Droptroops.....

Who don't want more macharius pattern. I just love it so much... It looks so much better than a baneblade. (The one with dual battle cannon).

It reminds me of a pig snout. That said, it looks dangerous.. Real Dangerous. Something about it looking like plasma artillery....

Oh, it's only $130. Fantastic. Why do you make such pretty, unattainable models Forge World? Why! *sob

Victory- a delicious recipe of timing, confidence, audacity, intelligence... and having more warm bodies than the other guy.
