Rogue Explorator Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 I really like this one, Chaos being all Chaosy (needs more mutation though) and I really like how the common Skeleton hordes and elite of the Deathrattlewhere put into contrast with each other. I particularly like how the Wights where dressed up all snazz and shine, as suits remnants from the age of Myth. Gives me some hope we might get away from the "all of Death runs with rotten decayed equipment" GW so seems to love eventually. 54 minutes ago, Antonio Rodrigues said: Khorne looks really pissed off...

The Golem Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 A new story is up: https://malignportents.com/story/lightning-in-a-bottle/ Spoiler It seems that Nagash has found a way to prevent stormcast souls to return to Azyr... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rogue Explorator Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 Spoiler We already knew that Nagash could do that, but before he needed some serious structures and mojo for that, now it is done with a gesture and an item carried by a nameless follower. Bad news for everyone but Death. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kaleb Daark Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 my money is still on the knight of shrouds character being one of these ex-stormcast. We're told that they are individuals who have betrayed or been cowardly but as we've found out, these tales are written from a perspective, so in Nagash's eyes they are cowardly betrayers, as their souls should have gone back to him. We'll see, I'm really looking forward to them getting fleshed out - maybe in the nighthaunts book or whatever it is that's coming next. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The knight of shrouds is not an ex-stormcast going by the malign portent entry in the supplement. Knights of shrouds are denied a place in sigmar's heavenly host or being claimed by chaos. They are humans that have betrayed a cause to serve nagash. They are humans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah but all entries in the timeline section of malign portents has them as humans, one used to be a king with a gauntlet. Keldrek was also a normal human. I suspect those who refuse to become stormcast might also become knights of shrouds because Josh reynolds has said we will find out what happens to someone who refuses sigmar to undergo the reforging. Those who also accept a calling from the knights of shrouds or an emissary of nagash are also denied the right to become stormcast by the mark of nekroscene.

Turgol Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 Be it as it may, I think these four things are almost certain to happen: -New Nighthaunt (or completely new spectral faction) whose central theme is manipulation of stormcast souls. -Knight of Shrouds is part of that faction -Their entrance opens a new age in the Age of Sigmar, followed with Sacro-sanct or Ruination opened to counter them. Lord Ordinator part of them. -Since Knight of Shrouds and Ordinator DID point to next death and SCE released factions, Darkoath and Moonclan seem to be a thing. Timing (2019? 2020?) is the only question. Which shows how AoS has already years if not decades of released planned. Just to name the thing that are certainly coming at some point: -Lightkin -Shadowkin -Moonclan -Darkoath -Sacronsanct -New Nighthaunt -Ruination -KO and FS expansion (hinted several times by GW). And then you have things like Skygrots, Malerion's shadow failures (the Malerion equivalent of Idoneth talked about in the DoK book), Grugni's direct faction, Freepeoples, Devoted of Sigmar, etc., that have some hints at development but are less certain.

Just to name the thing that are certainly coming at some point: (...) Well ! I agree 100% with what you said here but we should maybe discuss it in the News thread. I'll just say that at launch (2015), Lady Atia reported Jervis Johnson saying they'll had like already 5 years planned. In the AOS main book, you had hints for Fyreslayers, Ironjawzs, Sylvaneth, Silver Tower (!), Teclis, Tyrion, Malerion, Archaon, Kharadron and Daughter of Khaine / Aelves of Malerion! Now I cannot find armies evoked in the book that aren't out - except Slaanesh but we know s/he isn't far away now. Today's MP story gives also credit to the Nighhaunt rumor, BTW !

Up to this point I had basically seen the Seraphon "dreamed in to existence" lore as a way to keep a relatively new model line on the shelf, but not really have to fit it into a new setting. Maybe there's hope for Lizardmen to live on in the Realms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turgol Posted March 27, 2018 Share Posted March 27, 2018 LOL just posted the same thing on Rumour Thread. Interesting to know that the aelves are again separately aiming for world dominion and fouling Sigmar into thinking them (at least Malekith) an ally.

sandlemad Posted March 27, 2018 Share Posted March 27, 2018 Damn, that's a good one. Good portrayal of Malerion and Morathi, says a lot about their relationship in a short space. A lot of implications too! - ‘He still thinks the Gladitorium a fine and noble tribute, not realising its true purpose. Besides, the sight of his gilded cretins slaughtering one another is a little gift to myself that will never tarnish.’ That's... a thing. - 'The Luminous One has no love for Sigmar. Not since that barbarian fool wasted Teclis’ kingly gift on his own short-sighted agenda'. Also a Thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DantePQ Posted March 27, 2018 Share Posted March 27, 2018 I wonder what was Teclis gift Malekith was always like that, I love how they changed him in ET and I like his character now much more then before. So it confirms that Elves in AoS are more like Eldar in Wh40k all about themselves which I actually love. Would love to read more fluff about them.
