Dracothjay Posted May 12, 2018 Share Posted May 12, 2018 Here we are guys. A leak of a new nighthaunt model. Could be infantry, could be a new hero, but it’s looking like July and the rumours could be true !!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DGH875 Posted May 12, 2018 Share Posted May 12, 2018 Hopefully it’s a new battle line unit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dracothjay Posted May 12, 2018 Author Share Posted May 12, 2018 Hoping so too. Battleline with some spooky amazing shenanigans Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silverline Posted May 12, 2018 Share Posted May 12, 2018 That looks sweet, and I too think it may well be part of a new battleline unit. It doesn't really "feel" like an independent character model. Of course, the other option is that it's a Shadespire miniature, though I'm being optimistic and hoping not Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dracothjay Posted May 12, 2018 Author Share Posted May 12, 2018 Well, seeming as it’s been released from portent content, and there’s also a new SCE model, I’m gonna say it’s gonna be part of a unit. Along with (hopefully a tome and other units) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sception Posted May 12, 2018 Share Posted May 12, 2018 The new black coach looks amazing A great model, though I don't like how much it hangs off its base. If I end up getting one of these, I might have to swap its base out for one of the bigger knight titan oval bases, as I did for my mortis engine. plus a bunch of stuff from the warhammer fest coverage (link) Spoiler So in addition to the black coach, we've got some new heroes (mounted knight of shrouds, noose guy, padlocks guy), a new 5 model multipart dual kit that makes either cairn wraiths (same overall design as the old model, but rushing forward with a more aggressive pose) or anew semi-bestial wraith unit with spiney backs and... horse skulls for heads, I guess? Kind of silly, but still pretty cool. EDIT: two separate kits, not a dual kit. And then what is clearly a new battleline infantry unit of infantry ghosties. I love the champion/banner/whatever with the candelabra. Plus I think there were new banshees shown somewhere? and maybe some other new cavalry This is at least two or three more new kits than I had personally expected from this release, so I'm one happy camper. Plus, there is a better-than-zero chance that the starter box of the new edition will be stormcasts vs nighthaunt, and if that actually happens then it should be easy to get a bunch of the new infantry together to quickly start or expand a ghosty army. I love all the models, but my favorite so far is definitely the mounted knight of shrouds. The model jut looks freaking fantastic, I absolutely love it. I've been a bit bummed out about AoS ever since the Warhammer Legends announcement, which essentially means that oldhammer armies, including my tomb kings, are going to be functionally removed from the game via the removal of their points values. But between the bits we're hearing about the new edition (heroes other than your general can use command abilities, which gives a new lease on life to units like wight kings and, relevantly, knights of shrouds; no shooting out of combat; expanded magic rules; etc) and the nighthaunt announcement I'm definitely feeling excited again.

Dracothjay Posted May 12, 2018 Author Share Posted May 12, 2018 100% agree. I’m seriously tempted to sell all my death stuff now to fund the new nighthaunt stuff!! I’m so pumped! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spiny Norman Posted May 12, 2018 Share Posted May 12, 2018 I like the knight on the steed. At least, it looks like the army is a fairly quick paint up. Hope you can ally a terrorgheist in :-). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pocktio Posted May 12, 2018 Share Posted May 12, 2018 I got into death via the Knight of Shrouds and Nighthaunt. Finished a tormented spirits and nearly done a Blades of the Bloodqueen box. Was wondering what to expand into next....guess they just decided for me. Maximum hype. They also have two new ghost themed technical paints, as if spooky bois werent easy enough already Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dracothjay Posted May 12, 2018 Author Share Posted May 12, 2018 Don’t get me wrong, I freaking love death, but I’m really considering selling my lot and funding big into NH. It’s got the aesthetic, no doubt will be synergy plenty and are just super fun to play!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spiny Norman Posted May 12, 2018 Share Posted May 12, 2018 2nd time mention, so you`re really desperate for someone to make the decision for you, right? I`d say don`t do it,,,never change, change is always bad! Ah and they`re stressing the ghost theme too much,,,,I mean a few ghostly units; sure,,,, but a whole army,,,,,,,too much Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Avatar Rage Posted May 12, 2018 Share Posted May 12, 2018 I was thinking earlier of how to boost my Nighthaunts. I was also thinking of starting a new army. Good of thing this was announced before I committed to either idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S133arcanite Posted May 12, 2018 Share Posted May 12, 2018 Also, it has been suggested that the banshee unit I mentioned is actually a Shadespire Warband: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KoalaSnok Posted May 12, 2018 Share Posted May 12, 2018 I dont think they look individually distuingishable enough to be a shadespire warband. They are all pretty much the same with different poses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoffeeGrunt Posted May 12, 2018 Share Posted May 12, 2018 If you look in the trailer, there's two Banshee unit types. Ones the traditional banshee style, with skull, long hair and roses in their hair, the other is the Lady in White style above wearing long veils. I reckon it's a dual kit.
