GW News 24 Nov 05
Specialist Games end of lines
From the Specialist Games site, the announcement of a large number of model withdrawals:
"The following models will be on sale until the 10th of December.
Blood Bowl: The Marauders (old human team), Blood Bowl Ogre Team.
Necromunda: old metal Orlocks, old metal Goliaths, old metal Scavvies, old metal Ratskins, The Caller, the Redeemer, Kal Jericho and Scabs, Rapier, Necromunda Farseer and Fire Dragons.
Warmaster: Kislev range, Alt Empire Knights, Storm of Chaos Characters, Teutogen Guard, Chaos Wizards, Chaos Spawn, Winged Daemon Prince, Old Slann Mage Priest, Undead Giant Scorpion, Alt High Elf units, Alt Dwarf units.
Inquisitor: Simeon 38X, Techpriest Tezla, Damian Bloodhound, Fabian, Yanvan Yastobaal, Bravus, Karshak, Servo Skulls, Chaos Henchman, Imperial Guards, Kroot Mercenary, Weapon Boosters, Talon, Toothpick Murke, Genestealer and Magus, Unbound Daemonhost, Sister Repentia, Tau Watercaste, Inquisitor Scarn, Crimelord, Citizens.
Mordheim: Freelancer, Ogre bodyguard, Johann the Knife, Halfling Cook, Merchant, Town Cryer, Stagecoach, Highway Man, Road Warden, Halfling Thief, Plague Cart, Averlanders, Ostlanders, Kisvelites, Elf Mage, Pit Fighter Ogre."
That's most of the (not particularly well populated) Inquisitor line then. But then, later the same day, it turns out that the Inquisitor stuff is really just a rationalisation of the line:
"Simeon 38X, Damien Bloodhound, Mutant Emissary Fabian, and Lucrezia Bravus have all been added into the original boxes that they are made from giving the customer the option of doing Damian 1472 or Simeon 38X for example. The Chaos henchmen have just been renamed as Chaos Henchman Conversion Pack. The Kroot mercenary has had the contents changed to contain a complete normal kroot. Not the merc with the funny hands and helmet. The weapons booster and servo skulls will be only available loose."
Still some withdrawals though, in fact a fair old number. It turns out that the UK has released its Specialist Games guide this week, while the US one (the one to buy, folks, if you can) is now on advance order for December. So this seems to be associated with the catalogue sort-out. Presumably the Mordheim withdrawals are mostly the groups and the Ostlander youngbloods (for example) are still available separately.
