     I guess they were around on Monday, but I didn't go into GWEdinburgh
     until last night. As this is the week White Dwarf is unleashed in the
     UK (today in fact), the new releases started this week. To the
     point... (excuse the names if I mis-spell)
     
     All prices in UK pounds (again, they're from memory). If you want a
     price conversion, use the following:
     
     4 pounds = Marine Dreadnoughts
     5 pounds = Marine Predators
     6 pounds = Big Imperial Guard War Machine (Baneblade?)
     7 pounds = Thunderhawk
     
     Supreme Commander Blister (4 pounds):
     Avatar (small dude this time), Falcon, Vyper with Fighting Platform
     and Farseer!
     
     Doomweaver (the Monofilament thrower) (5 pounds)
     2 x modified Falcons with big mono-throwers on them
     
     Fire Prism (5 pounds):
     3 x modified Falcons with Fire Prism attachments
     
     Dreadnoughts (4 pounds):
     4 of them
     
     War Walkers (4 pounds):
     4 of them with funny vane things
     
     Scorpion (6 pounds):
     War Engine base with BIG gun
     
     The other War Engine (6 pounds):
     War Engine base with a different BIG gun
     
     Small Aircraft (5 pounds)
     3 x the small one
     
     Medium Aircraft (5 pounds)
     2 x the medium one
     
     BIG aircraft (7 pounds)
     1 x the BIG one
     
     Vypers (4 pounds)
     4 x Vypers
     
     
     I think that's all of them, no Titans as yet, but as I get White Dwarf
     on Saturday... The Aircraft remind of Original Star Trek Romulans for
     some reason: flat, straight lines and a hex-pattern. (I know the
     Romulans probably didn't have hex patterns, but I just said it
     *reminded* me ;)
     
     They are sticking in some of the new flyer stands to - there are now
     four heights available and two base sizes (although you only get the
     standard 'small' base size in these blisters).
     
     If this helps I'd be surprised!

     p.s. I saw Gorkamorka being played by seven people last night. Looks
     like it might be a laugh ...
