"The Storm Raven is here and it's not looking quite as ugly as we first thought."
-- Space Wolves Blog
No, sir, it's still ugly, they just added some landing gear and a couple new weapons.
Listen, I'm not going to tell my thoughts on how the Storm Raven looks, I've already been over that in an earlier post, so bashing on it again is blatantly idiotic. Look, if you like it fine, if you don't just use a Valkyrie like any sane person who doesn't want to pay sixty bucks for a hunk of plastic.
Anyway, the other two things coming in the second wave are the Blood Angels Battleforce and the Furioso Dreadnought.
The Battleforce first. Look, just buy a regular marines Battleforce and you'll get the same result, the only thing here of interest is the death company, but chances are any good Blood Angels player will have bought two boxes of them already so they don't need them. I'm surprised (or unsurprised) that GW took so long to put together a battle force that is nearly a complete copy of the Marine one. Whatever, if you want to pay $100 for a Battleforce, I won't stop you.
The Furioso Dreadnought. Ok, this is actually pretty cool. I've always liked the look of dreadnoughts, and here we have three potential variants in one box. Now, this is still the same basic layout for a dreadnought, but just the amount of extra bits and pieces offered in it really appeal to me. The three variants are the regular Furioso, the librarian dreadnought and the death company dreadnought, all have their own bit that contribute. Out of all the second wave, this is the one I would pick up.
Cheers,
