Mine, as compared to http://www.games-workshop.com/gws/catalog/productDetail.jsp?catId=cat440004a&prodId=prod1530030a mine has more init, more weaponskill, but moves slower (but it flys) and theres has armor piercing. mine do a "mini stomp" (d3) and mine are rare choices whereas theres are special. mine also cause terror rather than fear. THOSE WERE MY IDEA FIRST!!! I HAVE DATES AND TIME TO PROVE IT!!! DAMMIT!!! and also btw, did anyone notice... VALTENS BACK BI^@#$!!! Edited by Mathusala0, 31st March 2012 - 04:22 AM.

I'm thinking somewhat the same thing, but instead of usurping that master engineer's pistol for my chieftain. It looks sufficiently rugged enough to be modded for a Skaven. |

Valten's back? VALTEN'S BACK? WTF? So Sniktch DIDN'T kill him? Oh god....Who wrote this new Empire book BTW? Maybe he is just a special character available for games but still "dead" in the timeline if you get what I mean. I dearly hope so. I have a sneaky feeling he has been written back to life. |

WHAT?! Cheeky man-things! Snikch or Deathmaster Mik killed him good. I have a sneaking suspicion they are resetting the timeline for SoC Mk II. So far they've brushed over several details in the timelines and I believe in SoM they even hinted that a great storm of chaos was coming... ![]() As much as I would like us to make another large bomb, mutate giants, and kill saints, we've already done that!

I HATE IT it's not skaven it's not ogres and its not skaven in fact it's not even furry it's not that I completely hate empire because thats where brettonia sits but it doesn't change the fact that after 3 whole months of waiting I found out that it's not an army anyone I know collects so I dont even get to try and smash it on the battle field

Its all up on the GW sight (the UK one) I like what I see, I just think that there are other races that deserve the update, like, say, Brettonia. |

IT isn't the first time GW has placed a special char in the books that according to the fluff has already died. I mean Vlad or Azagh for one are dead as a mice, but still playable. Flem, |

Cool, so now GW can "justify" selling a army book for $69.... When I first started they were $30. Plus those new models are hideous, especially that giant roided up turkey |

The Valten _models_ are back. Nothing says he's in the book. @Hannanibal - Author Is Robin "Your Army is Doomed Now, Ha Ha Ha Muther Effer" Cruddace. First TK. Now Empire. If he redoes Skaven, that will be the trifecta of him killing all my favorite armies. |

I had always imagined that the leeway given to army book authors was extremely limited. GW is all about synergy, so they write the books in order to sell the models. Even though the stats may initially come from the author, I had thought that they went through substantial testing and working things out in groups before the books actually go to press. If stats are inflated, or too low, I would imagine that it's not necessarily the fault of the listed author. GW just doesn't strike me as the kind of company that gives anyone much autonomy any more. Of course, I've never worked for GW, or even talked to top people except briefly at US Games Day, so I don't really know. Maybe they do let Robin Cruddace do whatever he wants. |

I imagine it's a little of both. No design team in their right mind would give all creative control to a single individual, though that individual may be a creative lead and have the "tiebreaker" involved in making group decisions. Singling out the author as the source of the problem is no different to pointing out a government figurehead for an entire government's failure. |

Why are people surprised Valten is back? He was killed after Storm Of Chaos, the timeline of the army books all end BEFORE Storm Of Chaos, all the stuff that happened during that campaign hasn't, yet. Anyway, more rumors. These are all from Warseer from one guy sop take with a massive pinch of salt
