This is the Ork Kil Krusha Tank on display at Warhammer World.
The model is a realisation of the many different concept images that Forge World produced for Ork tanks.
I have one myself, but it has been on the workbench for a while….

Chaos Brass Scorpion of Khorne
On display at the Warhammer World was the Chaos Brass Scorpion of Khorne.
This is one of my all time favourite models from Forge World. I seem to be in the minority as I really quite like this model, and if you read this blog I am not a fan of Chaos one bit!
The Brass Scorpion is a terrifying daemonic engine of destruction dedicated to the Chaos God Khorne, Lord of Slaughter. This nightmarish construct, as much hell-spawned beast as war machine, it storms across the battlefield like a monstrous predator hunting and killing. Its huge claws are capable of shredding armour with ease and its firepower laying waste to swathes of enemy infantry. Even in destruction the foes of Chaos have learned to fear this unholy war machine, as its infernally-charged reactor erupts to scorch the battlefield with the fury of its death-throws.
The Brass Scorpion of Khorne is a fantastically impressive resin model designed by Daren Parrwood and this model was painted by Mark Bedford. I love the paint job on this model, the combination of glossy red and brass details really makes this model both impressive and threatening.

Imperial Knights
Some of the Imperial Knights at Warhammer World.
I always thought the concept of Imperial Knights was interesting when I played Epic, but never actually bought any or used them in games.
Amazing Scorpion Type II Heavy Grav Tank
This incredible Eldar Scorpion Type II Heavy Grav Tank was on display at Warhammer World.
The skill (and patience) required to paint that extraordinary planet theme is inspirational. How they managed to keep the planets in perspective on that curved hull is beyond me.
Mars Pattern Warhound Titan
This is a Mars Pattern Warhound Titan on display at Warhammer World.
One of the things I like about Warhammer World are being able to see Forge World model in the flesh as it were. You really get a feel for the size and mass of the model, which isn’t always apparent from seeing it on the website.
Attacking the T’au
There are a range of huge dioramas in Warhammer World in Nottingham. One of them involved Imperial Titans attacking a T’au base.
Including the powerful Warlord Titan armed with Mars Pattern Warlord Titan Apocalypse Missile Launchers
The Apocalypse Missile Launcher is a Titan-class support weapon capable of firing volleys of missiles to saturate a wide target area. The superior elevation and mobility of a Battle Titan as a firing platform makes the Apocalypse launcher a surpassingly flexible weapon. When mounted in pairs on the Mars pattern Warlord Titan, the Apocalypse launcher becomes even more deadly.
Supporting the titans was a Mechanicum Ordinatus Ulator.
A rare and truly arcane weapon system of staggering power, the Mechanicum Ordinatus Ulator is of the smaller classes of Ordinatus, but nevertheless is one of the most potent war machines at the Imperium’s disposal.
The Ordinatus Ulator carries a trio of Volkite Culverins as its secondary armaments, but its primary weapon is the Ulator class Sonic Destructor. A terrifying weapon whose origins lie in the shadows of the Age of Strife, the Sonic Destructor generates a wave of annihilation that wreaks havoc across the battlefield.
Attack on the Titan
There are a range of huge dioramas in Warhammer World in Nottingham. One of them involved Imperial Titans attacking a T’au base.
The Reaver Titan was marching forward despite being repeatedly attacked by T’au forces.
T’au battlesuits flew over the attacking forces attempting to stop them.
It was an impressive display and included a huge T’au Manta as well. The scenery is excellent representing a T’au base or colony.
The Battle For Angelus Prime at Warhammer World
One of the huge displays at Warhammer World is The Battle For Angelus Prime.
This enormous diorama is full of models; with space marines, tanks, flyers and titans.
The moody lighting made photography difficult, but I did like how the walkway around went up so you could see right into the heart of the diorama.
Imperial Knight attacking against T’au forces
There was a huge display of Tau forces defending themselves against an attacking force of Imperial Knights.
The Imperial Knights did appear to be significantly outnumbered, but were holding their own. I really like the Imperial Knight models and nice to see them in big scale compared to the Epic ones I have somewhere…
Fighting for the T’au was the KV128 Stormsurge.
An absolute colossus of a machine, piloted by graduates of the Ves’oni’Vash, the KV128 Stormsurge is designed as an extreme heavy-weapons platform. Not as manoeuvrable as a Riptide, instead relying on thick armour and devastating loadouts, these hulking, squat ballistic suits are capable of changing the course of a battle in seconds with a decisive volley of astonishing firepower. Fitted with thrusters to counter recoil, bristling with pulse weaponry and missile pods, the Stormsurge is the T’au Empire’s Titan-killer.
