Oh my dad will LOVE it if I brought one of them home for him :P

Could be a part of those rumoured creature/war machine design rules in the Rulebook tho :(

where the dwarf steam tank? i see the thing with the huge boling tank but im pretty sure that was a piece of terrain featured in an old white dwarf. im hoping for a zeppelin, so many conversion opportunities :D

The Tank at the bottom right is probably the Beer Wagon that was featured in WD, and the Zeppelin looks like a scratch build, but it'd be pretty awesome if it was something upcoming!

The Zeppelin does in fact have rules in the new 8th Edition Rulebook (Hardcover)

It has 5 Organ Guns on it!

It is part of a section talking about "Legendary Battles" which is about 3-4 pages long...it looks to be hinting at a Warhammer Fantasy version of Apocalypse...

*The model isn't pictured in close up, so I believe it may be a scratch build...but you know how GW likes to hide things in its pictures :) There are also some interesting shots of Dwarven Scenery that may become kits...who knows?

mmmm! spirit of Grungi(sp? not quite awake yet for reasons of monster hunter) anyone? can we finally recreate Gotrek and felix go to the chaos wastes(oft confused with Asterix and Obelix fight the vikings)? cos that would be awsome, maybe have to get a read of the rulebook methinks;)

I think it is a scratch build, but I would love to be proven wrong. WFB superheavies ftw.

40k got big flying things. Well okay they are still skimmers but still, that may open the door for a dwarf zeplin which would be so awesome.:D

Having read some of the book tonight I can confirm the rules for it are in there. Its called a Dwarf Thunderbarge.

It has a crew of ten, Magic resistance two, can move and fire, can hover, Large target. It is armed with 5 organ guns and bombs. You can fire one organ gun per 2 crew.

No points value is mentioned.

Forge World used to make dwarf zepplin models, but I dont think that is one of them.

They dont look like Multi part sprues from a unit box, not enough options. They do have a starter box set look to them, Island of Blood?

An updated version of Warhammer Siege would be awesome.

Kicking off a Map Campaign in August and sieges will definitely be prominent. I hate the old rules tho.

Heavily out dated.

Just popped over to Daka, these are NOT GW. They are from a company called Mantic Games.

Close but no cigar indeed. Mantic may be based in Nottingham but they're not a sub division of GW :P
