Imperial Guard Rumor Roundup

[Veteran Sergeant]

Catachans are just a casualty of being the first multi-part plastic IG troops. The models are quite old and therefore less detailed and more ridiculously proportioned than what we're used to today. I bet if they redid the line with their new CAD techniques, they'd look fantastic and sell like hotcakes. Have you ever met someone who claims to not like Predator?

The old metal figs were awful too.

The whole aesthetic of the army is what sucks.

Hrm, the new command squad kit they came out with in the last book didn't make them look much better. They feel very odd in the 40k atmosphere, having these super 1980's 'murican looking dudes amongst the European Gothic aura of the 40k universe.

See, I like that, m'self. 40K needs more variety. Goffik, goffik, goffik all the time makes for a boring, limited universe.

Because The White Scars and the Attilan Rough Ridders and the Space Sharks totally don't exist...

you need to read more fluff if you think that 40K is just "European Gothic".

Catachans are the best regiment, a whole army of Rambos with one guy who is so Rambo that he is Super Rambo.

They also are so hilariously over muscled and the heads are all shouting or wearing shades, its hilarious.

Whats not to like?

[phil035]

got to agree with save they look like that because they are meant to look like that yes they might need a new sculp but read the fluff thats what they look like

With Catachans you get to always be yelling GET TO DA VALKYRIE!

For reals. If you have Catachans on the table and don't have an Arnold Schwarzenegger soundboard going off in your head you're doing it wrong. His body of work covers every 40k scenario, including failing the dangerous terrain test. [url]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dln0i11GEP4[/url]

Latest news in the sad story of the bloke who got laid off at GW who was in charge of "Naming thing properly" is that there are apparently going to be... wait for it... wait for it...
