Lets Chat: Idoneth Deepkin

Daughters of Khaine book has revealed some interesting snippets on something called the Idoneth Deepkin. Now, normally this would just be another lore snippet, but they're also listed as Allies to the #DoK! Could this be a new Aelf faction?! #ageofsigmar

 

Games Workshop guy with perks has just posted this on twitter: Sea Aelves rumour confirmed

Lets not forget about mistweaver Saih, she's pretty distinctive too, and may fit into all this

Im going out on a limb and I will say that they will likely roll the scourge privateers (corsair + kharybdiss at least) into this book like they did with the DoK and add a couple units + one big one (arrrgh, a ship matey!). They already are spikey and sea themed and we know they are reboxing some old kits.  Plus despite being featured heavily in the Anvilguard box they did not receive any special rules in the GHB2017.

Well it does say she is a mistweaver and that story chunk says they emerge from the mists.....so theres that =P

also what are the kraith? Are they ANOTHER new order faction?  Or, if they are doing things right, a new Destruction faction (whom I could see occasionally teaming up with Alariele)

The Kraith are a DoK sub-faction, I think they call them temples in the new book?  Basically the same as the Kharadron port cities, or Stormhosts but for DoK.

well that certainly makes more sense! I was worried they would go a bit overboard on the new stuff! Im an order guy but I'd love for my opponents to get some love. Blood for the (Aelven) Blood God! Hearts for the Hearth Throne!

The legendary "Fishmen" are going to be a reality?

 

Also maybe will be a faction for the Merwyrm? I loved that model!

 

 

I'm nearly finished painting up a Carmine Dragon, please dont give me a reason to get another big monster started right away!

 

Edit:  Please give me a reason to paint another big monster though.

I wouldn't be sure about that: they made the Scourge Privateers and the Idoneth Deepkin distinct allied factions in the lists of allies available to the Daughters of Khaine.

whoops! I didn't even catch that! well its good to know they have a whole new army ready to go! I don't think my wallet can handle this. But I do feel for all the Aelven mini factions like White Lions, Order Draconis, and Scourge that will get left in the dust.

I'm super interested to see what the Idoneth Deepkin turn out to be.

Can't wait for the Open day this weekend (presumably they'll be revealed there given that's when the Daughters of Khaine will hit the public). I'm looking for the AoS army that 'clicks' with me as opposed to just doing old stuff, and while I have some ideas on how to make an interesting Daughters of Khaine army, I'm excited to see what the Deepkin are going to look like.

I guess perhaps similarly to the Daughters, I'm kinda hoping that we see some Aelf stuff as well as deep sea creature monsters (I think it'd be cool to see something similar to the male Naga's from WoW as part of the faction).

For sure we will get something, it's AoS day if they don't have new releases in store they would push DoK month later also they teased "Fishmen" during Las Vegas and then releases that wreckage video. Do we have any list of unsolved rumor engines that could fit with Deepkin ?

I'll be very disappointed if they don't, considering we've already got the whole DoK release figured out. Hoping for a strong preview of this faction. 

Not so sure. Since that is the weekend DoK hit the shelves you would want all your marketing focus on them. Why would you want to distract potential customers with a future release?

Its more likely the reveal will be at Adepticon 22nd March - By then everything will be out for Daughters of Khaine - And I will have no money left :D

There are third fresh army for AoS after SCE and KO they won't have any factions folded into them. 

My wild guess about release (back up by AoS releases) 

Named big character/multi kit 

2-3 leaders 

Mistweaver 

One kit to assemble different models 

Battleline (maybe with option to assemble to different unit rumored - Acolytes mixed with TRevs) 

Elite unit (rumored cavalery on seahorses possible two warscroll entries) 

Some kind of Monster/monsters multi kit. 

Army was rumored to be hero/big models centric so I wouldnt expect much more. It would be very KO alike.
