I'm actually quite happy to see the new minis and perhaps a look to recapture a bit of the old 'undead' feel that first ensnared me some 18 years ago.

The models are cool, but I don't get the reasoning behind the horrible illustration on the cover.

Yeah, I figured after a while... They've been doing it with the new codices as well. I don't see the point, though. It might bring up nostalgia in some old players, but isn't the idea to attract, like... new players?

Vegetarians should eat bacon though. Not because I'm trying to force them to give up their pointless struggle against the true omnivorous way, but because bacon is made of win and awesome. -TOF-

Cover looks like shit! They might as well replace the title with "Goosebumps: The Strategy Game".

Cuz that's the army that really needed updating. Not Wood Elves. Nor Brets. Vampire Counts.

Oh well, now they can reduce Skeletons to 2 points a model to go along with the 10 model, $25 boxes.


On the upside, I do like the new war machines, and plastic Black Knights=win!

Prices make people play elite armies.  Smiley

Also agree about the cover, and the latest WD too...  Why does the Vampire need huge horns coming out of his back?!

Patsy's arguments never fail to give me an erection.

Anything on new units?

The new ordinary knights are good though.

I'm not liking this elaborate war machine kick GW is on.  Some of these things are just too big or too much.

It's turning into WHFB: Apocalypse.

But Undead is what I started with all those years ago, so I'm curious to see what this army will be like.
