GW France has the latest base size chart out

http://www.games-workshop.com/MEDIA_CustomProductCatalog/m2480001_feuille_ref_WFB_PU-Socles-Type.pdf

It’s in French of course, but I was pleased to see Chaos Dwarfs (Nains du Chaos) still listed on it.

wow Im surprised it has 50x50 for great taurus and lammassu.... did you see the assassin I wonder what that is, maybe sneaky gits.

BilboBaggins:

Now if they can get the English Speaking sites on the ball. :smiley:

clam:

Thanks, Wallacer

Glad to see that we are still in there.

And finally we see some offical standings about dragons and their base sizes

That is what it was on the English base size chart a while back.

Taedae:

i think assassin is sneaky gits. its still nice to see we still matter.

Xander:

Nice stuff. Good find. :slight_smile:

Henroth:

Chaos Dwarfs, Dog of Wars and Kislev have a point with sign… what to represent ?

wallacer:

Can any of our French-speaking members translate the Skaven section for me? (there’s a pile of slaves in it for you…)

The reason I ask is because I suspect that the Skaven section has listings for figures from the new Skaven army book.

For example, i’m guessing that “Pontife de la Peste sur Chaudron des Mille Véroles” may mean “Plague Priest on Cauldron of a Thousand Poxes”?

BilboBaggins:

According to my internet translator it says.

Pontiff of Plague on Caldron of the Thousand Poxes

Thommy H:

Yeah, that’s what it says. Also, Grey Seer on Screaming Bell is the thing before it. I think the 20x20 guys are all existing troops types (Slave, Clanrats, Giant Rats, Night Runners, Stormvermin, Poison Wind Globadiers, Plague Censer Bearers, Plague Monks), but there’s also “Plague Novice”? Something like that? Is that the Plague Monk Champion? Also what seems to be “pus sac” and “mad rat”. I don’t know enough about Skaven to comment on that.

Now, the 40x40 section has Rat Ogres, “Lunatic Rat Ogre” (Champion?), “cloud of rats” and…uh…“pestilent kid”? I have no idea what that could be.

Nothing else seems to be new.

According to Babelfish:
Armies and located figurines of a point (�?�) are not usable any more within the framework of the Great Warhammer Tournament. They are given only to title code, for submission to the organizers of other tournaments which would like to continue to authorize them, or of the players who would like to continue to play them.

In other words, I guess it is just denoting the armies that can't be used in Official GW tournaments?  (surely there must be someone here who speaks French...)
Also what seems to be "pus sac" and "mad rat". I don't know enough about Skaven to comment on that.

Thommy H
The Clan Pestilens list in the Lustria book had guys called "Pus Bags" I believe. Basically just horribly infected slaves who lost a certain number of guys every turn.

Hopefully this is a sign that some of the Pestilens stuff from the Lustria book is going to be incorporated into the new Skaven book.

Thommy H:

I just realised that “cloud of rats” is a rat swarm. Obviously.

BilboBaggins:

Now, the 40x40 section has Rat Ogres, "Lunatic Rat Ogre" (Champion?), "cloud of rats" and..uh..."pestilent kid"? I have no idea what that could be.

Thommy H
I'm assuming Rat Swarm and Poisoned Rat Swarm.

wallacer:

Now, the 40x40 section has Rat Ogres, "Lunatic Rat Ogre"

Thommy H
There have been rumours on Warseer for a while now about frenzied Rat Ogres.  Lunatic Rat Ogre sounds like it could be that.

Kera foehunter:

yea i can’t wait to see if the ogre rat are diffrent

cornixt:

So war machines will have proper bases sizes now by the look of it. Most of them seem to be based on the size of the model. All of ours are 50mm square

I love the French name for the Earthshaker: Trembleterre

Firehammer:

Just for the record:

This version of the sheet was published April 2009 and known since then, although some poster at Warseer today also claimed it to be new.

BTW, clearing your cookies, going to the GW website and chose French language, and you can see all French unit names without bothering bablefish.

So “Cloche Hurlante” is Screaming Bell, “Prophète Gris” = Grey Seer, “Canon à Malefoudre” = Warp cannon, “Mitrailleuse Ratling” Ratling gun, "Nuées de Rats " rat swarm, “Lance-Feu Skaven” flame thrower, “personnage à pied” foot soldiers, “esclave” slave, “Rats Géants” Giant Rats, “Coureurs Nocturnes /d’�?gout” Night/gutter runners, “Vermines de Choc” Storm Vermin, “Encenseurs à Peste” censer bearer, “maîtres de meutes” pack master, “Moines de la Peste” Plague Monk.
