Venter Posted December 15, 2014 Report Share Posted December 15, 2014 Wow... I need this box set! I have a question though, there's no mention of a preorder and you can add the product to your basket. Was the release date mentioned in the newsletter? Also, Except for the direct link provided here, there is nothing on the website announcing it nor on the facbook page. Is it ok to spread the word by sharing this direct link? Yes, you might not have noticed it across the previous posts, but the shipping date is January 28th. The link comes from the newsletter, I don't think there are any issues with it, but I'll remove it if asked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BRB Posted December 15, 2014 Report Share Posted December 15, 2014 They seem like pretty cool models, and I hope I'll be able to get my hands on that portal, but I'd rather have seen some of the ships for which we've had the stats for half a year now, but which haven't been released, yet. Just feels like V1, when we had stats and previews for models that were never released and everything moved on to V2... Frans 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quiet01 Posted December 15, 2014 Report Share Posted December 15, 2014 Really glad to see the two games tied together with a compelling story line. I've been eyeing both factions recently and this seals the deal what direction I am going. ahmadan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FailTruck Posted December 15, 2014 Report Share Posted December 15, 2014 Return of the Overseers? Who are they? Im thinking the ship thingy that is pictured with the FRIGGEN AWESOME warp gate could be an overseer. Awaiting to get laser blatted as soon as it arrives.

zaknafn Posted December 15, 2014 Report Share Posted December 15, 2014 If you go to Z'ha'dum you will die... So basically, once again , the humans go to an ancient planet and awaken unspeakable evil. (we never learn...) I'll paint their ship as a shadowy glowy black thing that absorbs all light and psychically screams when its attacked.

zaknafn Posted December 15, 2014 Report Share Posted December 15, 2014 I keep thinking Third Space and not the Shadows, Zak. After rereading Reds post I think you're hundred percent right. All the way down to the ancient evil and fear thing. Third space aliens it is. And that would make the Aquans the Minbari...

zaknafn Posted December 15, 2014 Report Share Posted December 15, 2014 There's no proof the aquans are unbearable holders of the magical gluteal broomstick ya know No, they just have great big blue organic ships that fire blue and green death beams in every direction and different castes of workers B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoP Posted December 15, 2014 Report Share Posted December 15, 2014 Return of the Overseers? Who are they? That's easy. The "Overseers" are a Class of Directorate Carrier vessels. Obviously some have been reactivated and/or reassigned to front duty to support the invasion. Hence "the Return". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

klarg1 Posted December 15, 2014 Report Share Posted December 15, 2014 I keep thinking Third Space and not the Shadows, Zak. "Third Space" is not a happy memory for me. How about Star Gate instead? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reddwarf Posted December 15, 2014 Report Share Posted December 15, 2014 I'd forgotten about the Tarakian fluff about them fleeing some great evil from another galaxy. That could tie in too. Though this seems more related to something pre-existing in Aquan space--boy would the Tarakians feel stupid if they fled the other place only to end up moving in next door to an outpost of the same civilization they were fleeing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zaknafn Posted December 15, 2014 Report Share Posted December 15, 2014 "Third Space" is not a happy memory for me. How about Star Gate instead? The fight scenes were cool... But I think the previous poster was correct. This is soooo third space aliens. A giant space Stargate from which a creeping terror that causes fear in the mind emerges. Something tells me Cthulhu comes from the watery depths... Zak ahmadan and northerndragons 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zak would be a fun way to reintroduce the Pathogen... would have a Flood vibe... ancient menace locked away on a secret celestial body... only to be woken up by the futile conflicts of two clashing factions. fits the bill just about right.

klarg1 Posted December 15, 2014 Report Share Posted December 15, 2014 Yeah but he is Aquan. That would certainly put a different spin on "The Mind", and whence comes its deep, eldritch knowledge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
