AAL

I'm with you. This looks like something out of Death to me maybe a collar for a vampire or other death lord.

I would guess a rebasing and reboxing

I think that means its time we started our own wild rumors. Next up vulture people who are the new death faction. They follow other death hordes as a constant food source.

Tie beards together* dwarves dont hold hands

So you could say its eyes are hidden in the shadows... I will see myself out but only after I squeal a little more in excitement over a potential Aelf release. My first army will finally be updated!

No mention of it yet but rumors that it should be expected in summer.

I hope so and i am ready for them to come up from the depths and be super High fantasy. I have always been an aelf player but I really love the looks of this new dwarven faction. I am a person who likes it when sci-fi and fantasy blend as that's when i feel hey are at their strongest personally. I cannot wait to have an order faction made up of sky dwarves and aelves from the deep

Could this be a way to introduce flying monsters that look a lot like sea monsters? I have wanted sea monsters more like the Karybdis model but thats hard to do without any sea tables etc.

I don't know if its relevant at all but have aelves always had solid eyes and such a non flesh tone skin color? Is this a new direction that GW plan on taking the aesthetic or does this seem specifically for this model. It almost looks like a grey goblin or a seraphon.

The most recent Tzeentch book was well written but fairly short and I feel all the GW books are a bit pricey. I still bought it and enjoyed it. The last book was written from the viewpoint of a human in the city guard which was nice. I think there is also one written from a skaven POV but I have not read it.

I feel like shadowkin aelves and slaneesh will get a side by side release but I am not sold that they will be allies. THe old story lends itself either way but I don't think GW will keep too much of the old story. I don't think they will pit the aelves against each other in difference factions.

Hmm was hoping to hear something free guild as well. Alas still so much to choose from.

Do we havce a vague timeline of what is rumored for this year? I know I want to start a 1000 pt army project but so many exciting options down the road!

The main strong points for dark aelves/ shadowkin in old WHFB were the witches, the crossbows, executioners and later on the scourge privateers had a seemingly separate but still thematically strong place. I wouldn't be surprised to the daughters of khaine get the initial bulk release with someone like Morathi and some redone models for darkling covens. I also wouldn't be surprised to see order serpentis lumped into another subfaction like scourge privateers.

Currently my mantra for this and the cadia release
