andy Posted July 17, 2017 Report Share Posted July 17, 2017 I picked up the 3-model minibox for S&Gs... just wanted to see the bigger marine models in person. I was surprised to see that they're keyworded "Adeptus Astartes" and "Ultramarines" but not "<CHAPTER>". I imagine this is fluff-driven, right? Also, the "Reivers" spelling is going to drive me nuts. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a rare case of GW actually spelling something correctly. Unlike "Primaris," which I think they meant to be "prīmāriīs," but that's the dative masculine plural of the word... Nomiative masculine plural would be "prīmāriī." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holy carp, you're right... that's a valid ye olde tyme spelling. Of course, it's still annoying but what're you gonna do? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ish Posted July 17, 2017 Report Share Posted July 17, 2017 It's not that "olde tyme," I mean it's not even Old English! (Editor's Note: Ish was a history major. Ish considers anything that happened after 1776 to be "current events." Ish is kind of an idiot.) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I deeply respect history and linguistics (Not sure if this is meaningful to you, but Ars Magica is my favorite game ever). I'm just really frikken' easy to annoy. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
