What an amazing set of reveals it has been for the Horus Heresy game over the past day, and indeed weeks! Got to say that I am impressed by the variety and extent of the releases that are being planned. Long rumoured, the shift to plastic for a wide variety of the Forge World components is impressive. Top of my shopping list though will be the rules set and these pair of books.
I think this is a relatively fair way of doing things and not entirely unexpected. Although I may have preferred one source book for the Astartes, this does look very good and will bring together the 9 volumes of the previous source materials from the black books under a pair of releases which is a good move. I am pondering if I should conduct a "Phase 2" or "Version 2" review of all the new units or not? Thoughts welcome - it would be a grand undertaking over a long period of time and may not end up dramatically different to previous reviews, so I need to think it over.
The new Kratos tank in plastic is also interesting to see. So whatever happens I believe that there will be a need for players out there to at least have a set of review materials for that in one place, and with depth.
Genuinely looking forward to seeing what this new edition will bring with it!
