The death of hope is all around us (Horus Heresy)

      Ja, Horus Heresy war wohl der unbestrittene Höhepunkt des Gamesday.

      Die haben sich aber auch mächtig ins Zeug gelegt.
      Der 40k-Chaosrelease hinterlässt leider einen bitteren Nachgeschmack, mit dem riesigen Finecastwahnsinn. Wahrscheinlich sollten sie die Produktion von Charaktermodellen auch an FW outsourcen dann gibts wenigstens mal einen guten Abbadon, Ahriman und Kharn... der Preisunterschied ist seit Finecast eh schon marginal
