Yes, and it's complete madness in my opinion.  Things like this should just stay in Epic where they belong, and not be a part of 40K.  It's a very nice drawing though :).

Real world cost: ££££££
In-Game cost: xxxxx points

In-Game special rule: YOU WIN!!!111!!

If your opponent has one too, then you have to throw both of your resin lumps in the air.  Whichever one lands face up on the ground wins!

If both land face up, continue throwing your models into the air until one of you has a nervous breakdown.

Yeah, don't quite understand why anyone would want to "play" a game of 40k with something like that? Pushes it firmly into model railway/diorama territory for me - which is fine by the way!

40k ceased to be a game a long time ago...
I really would love to buy some Warmaster Kislev, Araby, Bretonnia, Vampire Counts, Chaos demons ...

Well I stopped playing 40k in the 2nd edition so I have no idea what game purpose should model this collosal both in size and power do  ;) My gues it's for the Apocalypse... Epic in the 40k scale. Which is a stupid concept IMO.

It was bad when Apocalypse games were a thing. It's worse now, because there's not even the 'apocalypse' distinction anymore. Want to turn up with a Warhound and a few Knights in a regular game? Now you can! (and it is, in fact, encouraged).

40k and Warhammer have both died. Long live Epic and Warmaster!

More on topic, I like the sketch and wouldn't mind seeing it in Epic (the older versions look pretty dated).
