New nid model teased?

[hivemind03]

My area has always drawn the line for wysiwyg at weapons. If its some fiddly bit like Adrenal Glands, grenades, or misrecordia, nobody cares..

I would never go into a league or tournament with specific wysiwyg rules hoping not to get caught. A fair number of people I play know the difference between a devourer and a deathspitter. Even if nobody is mean enough to DQ me I would likely be asked not to do that again.

For casual games, sure, its whatever. As long as it's not confusing.

I might also just be afraid of commitment.

For those that are lazy like me to work on magnetizing troops, you can bluetack the weapon on.

It looks silly, but if you're more into competitive options and less into rule of cool, bluetack is completely feasbile and I'd just paint the main option and leave the others based until required.

I don't think magnetising warriors is that bad. I use 3mm so it fits right in the socket and then chop off a bit of the shoulder and put another magnet there.
Sure I lose a bit of detail on the arm but it looks fine.
Never mind the cost, it saves me painting time too. I would never have painted about 9 dual warriors and melee only. Removing from sprue/ removing mould lines is probably my least favourite hobby activity. That said i won't be doing it for gsc, they're just too small and fiddly.

If you’re worried about the number of magnets then use sheet metal. That’s just four magnets per warrior.

Magnetizing is far more a question of time and patience than money, N52 3x1mm and 5x1mm magnets are cheap on E-bay if you buy in bulk (100+). I could magnetize all weapons on a trio of warriors for roughly £1.

It's the only sane way if you also want to magnetize bases.

Let's just hope that the teased model is a multi unit kit so those that want to magnetise can and those that don't can buy another copy.

I'd like to see a Lictor/Deathleaper kit for sure... but it would also be nice if we could get a duel kit for Biovore and Pyrovore. A box of 3 similar to Venomthropes/Zoanthrope would be nice.

[infornography]

Lictor/Deathleaper and Bio/Pyrovore plastic kits have been on just about everybody's short list for a LONG time.
I would also like to see Shrikes return with a Parasite of Mortrex option.
And a mobile transport for genestealers, gants/gaunts, and maybe warriors, ideally with open topped rules, that we can take would fill a gap we have always had as Nids.
Also we have been begging for a plastic LoW option for a LONG time. Honestly I don't even care if it is unfieldably bad at this point, I just want a huge nid critter that isn't made of resin and costs as much as a cheap used car.

The teased bit though looks most like a Lictor to me, but we shall see.

Not interested on any of the old models getting remakes. Gimme new shjet like'em necrons got!

[dranzyl]

I dont know... Getting new sh!t and then waiting 2-3 editions for even one of them to see play (looking at you toxicrene, maleceptor, haruspex) was kind of disapointing.

A plastic (and powerful) LoW would be cool though.

Or we could get remakes and new models like necrons...

I do not want models. I want rules. Both are also acceptable.
