Thats a wierd change of pace, IG are now "Nameless heroes who fight to ensure the survival of the Imperium" and not just cannon fodder weilding flashlights.

I don't like this "kiddyhammer" version of Warhammer 40,000.

nice find!

and dravenguild; the guard have always been the force that keeps the imperium from falling into anarchy... the space marines may be the poster boys, but there's far too few of them to protect the imperium as a whole - that's the guard's job!
the idea of them being nothing more than 'the emperor's holy meatshield' is simply gamer's humor... (okay, so yes the penal battalions are pretty much fodder! but that's only one minor aspect of the guard!)

cheers!

I realize that however in all the rulebooks I own Guard are never mentioned as "heroes", I like it to be Dystopian and gritty, not optimistic and nurturing!

@Dravenguild: You know, if any of this actually happened *crosses fingers*, you would be considered a soldier of the imperial guard. Normal people would serve in the guard. It's kinda depressin to refer to people on the same level as yourself cannon fodder.

Anyways, loving the pictures, and can't wait for 5th Ed to release!

My Death Korps are nameless heroes, but I dont really like the Death Korps illustration, seems a bit antiquated especially since thay have models now. It all looks pretty cool though.

I would like it noted that Baron Spikey posted these up first, on May 19th at Heresy Online (5th Edition Rulebook Art and Pages - Heresy-Online - Warhammer 40k Forums)... Please cite and credit your sources correctly. Failure to do so is plagiarism.

Just giving credit where credit is due.

It has been also been brought to my attention that this is the case and unless you can provide proof that you took these pictures you need to give Baron Spikey credit so the guys at Heresy will leave us alone.

Thanks,

I really am loving this artwork! It reminds me of the bright and colorful 80's renditions, while at the same time still dystopian and gritty!

+1 to Mikeel and Wargamenation

Some great artwork in there. Hope every race has a nice couple of background pages, a la Dark Eldar there. It'd be an improvement on the current ed, especially for we fluff nuts.

The picture of the Emperor seems weird though, after all of those renditions of the battle between him and Horus.
