I took a wealth of photographs at GamesDay 2005. There were many games on display including some very nice Warhammer Historical games of which these Samurai Cavalry game looked very nice. The painting was excellent and very inspiring.

Not sure if they were just scenery or involved in the game!

The Landraider is the single most destructive weapon in the Adeptus Astartes’ arsenal. Protected by bonded ceramite and adamantium armour, the Landraider is impervious to all bar the most destructive weaponry. Equally impressive are its armaments – four lascannon and twin-linked heavy bolters allow the Land Raider to deliver punishing support fire capable of decimating enemy infantry and tanks alike.

Those of us old enough know that this model of the Land Raider is now how it has always been… This is the MkIII Land Raider there as both a MkI and a MkII.
Originally the Space Marine Land Raider looked like this. This is from the Rogue Trader era and used the concept of symmetrical parts to reduce the number of sprues that needed to be cast. Compare that to today where we have plastic Stompa kits and virtually everything that Games Workshop now sell is in plastic.

This (I believe) is the three-up version for the Epic version of the Land Raider.
With the release of Epic 40000 a new version of the Land Raider was envisaged which because of the time did not need to worry about number of sprues.

This is very similar to the current version and the MkIII is derived from this model. Of course it will be familiar to those gamers who know about the Forge World MkIIb Land Raider model as that Forge World model is a version of the Epic model.
These models were on display at GamesDay 2005.

A Dwarf Lord from the display cabinets at GamesDay 2005.
When battle is joined it is the Lords and Thanes, with their finely crafted armour and rune-inscribed weapons who seek out the enemy’s most powerful combatants, matching bestial fury or dark magic with courage, honour and honest steel.

Dwarf Master Runelord Thorek Ironbrow and the Anvil of Doom in the display cabinets at GamesDay 2005.
Thorek is the Master Runelord of Karak Azulans, some say, the greatest runelord alive. He is the only Runelord that has the knowledge to make use of the Rune of Doom, the very rune that gave the Anvils their name.

Dwarf High King Thorgrim Grudgebearer and the Throne of Power in the display cabinets at GamesDay 2005.
Thorgrim is the descendant of the most ancient and noble of all Dwarf lords. The very blood of Grugni flows in his veins and the wisdow of Valaya sits upon his beetling brow.
