I don't want him to die at all. I want him to finally have his plans work out, build a new black pyramid, and turn the world into ancient Nehekhara.

I want Nagash to be a serious player in the fate of the Moral Realms. He seems like an after thought right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S133arcanite Posted December 30, 2017 Share Posted December 30, 2017 My guess is that theres this super secretive coven of deathmages and the like summoning all the portents, waiting for the right time to strike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HorticulusTGA Posted December 30, 2017 Share Posted December 30, 2017 The two short stories in January White Dwarf are amazing ! https://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/2040/723873.page I love the details on the page (the Morghast heads) ; and it's great to have a White Dwarf with background again. Really, 2018 start is awesome, it's a bit like the excitement I felt for the End Times back in 2015, with ET : Nagash, and ET : Glottkin (like we have now Maggotking and Malign Portents, Heralds, etc. in February-March) ! EDIT : the Death article in the last White dwarf explain clearly one of the portents we got (the Asylum) ; the triangles on the walls are INVERTED BLACK PYRAMIDS, floating above Nagashizzar rebuild in Shyish, where Nagash is preparing his latest great work............ (That remind me the end of "Undying King", the last Realmgate Wars novel, hm?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sete Posted December 30, 2017 Share Posted December 30, 2017 One of the teaser was a whole lot of gold. Please don't put the Custodes and Death in the same month. My wallet weeps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinncinnatus Posted December 31, 2017 Share Posted December 31, 2017 Anyone else wonder what GW hopes to accomplish with Malign Portents? I don't think it could be a global campaign with Death as the antagonists. Too few Death players means the result would be a forgone conclusion. And I doubt it would be another campaign like Firestorm given the hype surrounding it. I wonder if it will be a narrative device they use to justify removing more older models from their line to make way for newer products. Nagash unleashes his Death A-Bomb and now all of faction X are gone forever. I think this would mean a new Death release as well to fill some of that gap.

Inqy Posted December 31, 2017 Share Posted December 31, 2017 Probably a Realmgate Wars style series of campaign and fiction releases, timed to coincide with the release of new Death stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, not every campaign has to be a big global report the outcome thing. New models, new lore, and probably one or two interesting curveballs that the community can yell at each other over; as is tradition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NurglesFirstChosen Posted December 31, 2017 Share Posted December 31, 2017 Based on what gw have done with nurgle, I expect the purpose of malign portents (apart from narrative and a campaign) is to build hype before some major death releases. Gonna start a second army second quarter of 2018 I think Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wayniac Posted December 31, 2017 Share Posted December 31, 2017 I'm really, really hoping this lives up to the hype. GW has been so vague with these 5 second teasers that don't tell anything worthwhile, and the two stories in White Dwarf that are cool but again, don't actually say anything, that I am getting a bad feeling this might not live up to the hype people are thinking and it will cause massive disappointments. I really hope I'm wrong, and it's a new campaign, new Death battletome/updated models, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rogue Explorator Posted December 31, 2017 Share Posted December 31, 2017 Yeah, there is nothing to interpret about the valley. Propably the only noteworthy bit is that it is a zombies hand. So far we have only been shown Skeletons and ghostly spooky things with Malign Portents Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xelotath Posted December 31, 2017 Share Posted December 31, 2017 Maybe it's just building up to the reveal of a new death army coming Q2 or something. With all the mention of Black Pyramids I half expect the next Death army to have floating black pyramids as models spawning skeletons, much like 40k's Necron Monoliths Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bsharitt Posted December 31, 2017 Share Posted December 31, 2017 So if the wishful extrapolations of the ship meant we're getting death pirates and the statues means we're getting deathcasts, this one obviously means we're getting a new zombie army.
