Karl Franz dies

,

his son is (briefly) Emperor and at one point the leader of the Halfling Moot gets elected Emperor

I really respect GW for finally adding to the narrative,but....
haha, is this for real? I don't know about everyone else but, I would rather the WFB storyline NOT take a turn down lame road. A halfling emperor ....seriously?

The context is that every other Elector is dead, so yes.

Also, remember that the halflings are famously resistant to the corruption of Chaos, to the point that it's been mentioned that they were possibly a last-ditch attempt by the Old Slann to counteract the effect of the Chaos energy flowing out of their ruined warp gates. If the Empire is overrun by the daemonic forces of Chaos, perhaps choosing the Elector least likely to be corrupted is a good idea.

this is turning into a fluff discussion, so I started a thread about this in the fiction forum.

Sorry, was that a Dwarf joke? If so it went right over my head.

There's no need to get all short-tempered about it.

new empire chocobo rider....er, i mean, demigryph rider.

interestingly, twas sculpted by none other than Kev White. I'm assuming its the same one from Hasselfree. There couldnt possibly be more than one Kev White in the miniature sculpting business, could there? If it is him, then good on him. This kinda thing should be good for business, no?

And he seems pretty tough to boot!
I dont play empire, though at 36 pounds for a monster, rider and infantry model its not bad (for Forge World).

From what I read on Frothers, a fair few people have done stuff for Forge World. I think they've stopped gettng outside sculptors to do stuff, though.

as of when, though? Isnt this chap a brand spanking new guy? I know they get sculpted aeons in advance, but how many aeons, I wonder?

[AndrewGPaul]

Well, it was on show at Games Day last August. So, at least seven months.
