Looks like we have new Plastic Horus Heresy news about the name and contents – this time from one of the community’s oldest members:
Today’s news of a name for the Horus Heresy game comes from Warseer long-time moderator Wintermute, who chimed into the conversation with this:
As its called:
‘Horus Heresy: Battle for Ultramar’
Yet another reader chimes in anonymously to note that:
“All Ultramarines & Word Bearers Models are being pulled from Warhammer World; for photography; not by Forge World.”
And that info coming from two different people today lends another bit of credibility to the recent Lords of War side of things:
Lords of War (facebook) comes out or retirement to say:
“Oh, you think it’s going to be Battle of Phall? How cute…It will have it’s own rules created by GW, but everyone will use for FW and they should. 30k is vastly better than 40k.It will be two legions that hate each other. Any guesses? Looks like we have a winner!” (regarding a reader guessing: Ultramarines and Word Bearers)
That’s another member of the community putting up info that flies in the face of Dakka’s Whisper of Truth who has been putting forward this version of the product:
