Corvus Tomorrow. Not according to Forge World


Hello All

Having made a prediction a long time ago that Corvus will be at the open day, I have to let you know that this will apparently not be the case according to FW Customer services. Indeed not one Primarch will be at the event as it is not a dedicated FW event (something that I did not believe was an issue before). 

There is a Seminar. Hopefully we will see Corvus previewed for release at the HH Weekender (apparently not before Xmas if the FW statement is anything to go on). 

Well. This is sad news for me. Does this throw the schedule up in the air again?  

Corvus at HH Weekender 2016 and Slpharius Previewed?
Alpharius at FW openday 2016 and Dorn or Russ previewed / book 7 previewed?
Book7 and Russ / Dorn released HH Weekender 2017?
Etc. . . . 

Two events a year throw everything up in the air. . . Maybe another event is afoot? Or maybe it is a curve ball and we will see him tomorrow?!

  1. Wasn't the model more or less finished, besides the jump-pack? Would be pretty surprised if we don't see him tomorrow tbh :/

  2. I think he will be shown (actually or digitally) but I don't think there will be any models available for presale

    1. I agree.

      It seems to take Simon 6 months per Primarch and we got Guilliman in may so...

  3. No presale is not a big deal, but Corax is the reason I am so excited about this Open Day.
    I'm sure they will show some preview, keep the faith brothers! :^D

  4. I remember being told that x wouldn't be available before but certainly was on the day. That was only a few days before the event. I'll stake some cookies on the fact he or someone else will be available.

    1. We had already seen Guilliman at this point prior to the FW Openday. I dont think we will be seeing a Primarch tomorrow.

    1. I reckon you're right, those xmas dollars are too strong of a pull.

    2. I would agree but the chap at the end of the phone has sewn seeds of doubt.

  7. I think the most optimistic what we'll see about Corax just picture preview as for Guilliman before.

  8. The prospect of a new Primarch being revealed/leaked/whatever makes me giddy! I'm happy for my resident Raven Guard player, or soon to be, rather. Knowing him, Corax will be his first addition.

    And then I got my friend over in Massachusetts asking "Magnus when".

    1. My best estimate currently is:
      Corax Xmas 2015.
      Alpharius HH Weekender 2016.
      Dorn FW Openday 2016.
      Leman previewed a year from now, HH weekender 2017 released, possibly alongside Magnus. Wouldn't be shocked if they didn't release them at the same time.
      Jonson Openday 2017
      Sanguinius Xmas 2017
      Khan HH Weekender 2018
      Emperor Openday 2018??? Would need to be done soon.

      In between all them a second posed Primarch may appear here or there. Obviously if this "one at each FW event" thing is true and it is 2 a year by that reckoning you can imagine it slide back to almost 2020!

    2. No way they will drop it to 2 a year. I reckon 1-2 more before the end of the year.

  10. I think FW and BL must be sensing that they need to step it up in terms of releases, that some of the players of the missing factions are getting frustrated. I think we'll have all the primarchs before 2018, that just seems so far away!!
