Dammaz Posted August 3, 2019 Share Posted August 3, 2019 Sadly mate, that's probably just gone... No repack, no redesign. Made to order most of the time means last chance before dumping... And aye, my Dammaz Kron is ready. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Max Baumann Posted August 3, 2019 Share Posted August 3, 2019 (edited) Guys, I think you need to stop panicking and prematurely selling off your collections. The Cannon and Organ Gun is "last chance to buy", but were recently added into a mercenary company in GHB19. In my opinion this means they are only getting reboxed to be sold in stores too, since they were only available in the white mail order packaging. The same goes for Quarrelers / Thunderers and Warriors - they still have their old WFB packaging. High Elves / Sky Wardens have the identical issue, not sure if they will be kept around or discontinued for the sake of the new hinted Hyish "light elves". Last chance to buy could mean they are emptying their stock of the old 16 man (duardin) boxes. Could also mean we finally get 20 modell boxes for those. Many of the discontinued Empire character models are resin, they probably will throw those out for newer character models with a more AoS-style appearance (like the new announced Ogre Tyrant). The Unforged however could very well be retired without a new replacement, since the Slayer guys got their own entire Army and can be allied into certain cities anyway. As some wrote previously, lets wait and see what we get. If they are gone for good, we can still grumble then.

Charlo Posted August 3, 2019 Share Posted August 3, 2019 The language they use is that the models are explicitly going forever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair GHB2019 also has Greenskinz Matched Play Points Who were discontinued in January? And they didn't even bother with Last Chance, it was one sudden swoop of removal.

I get your point but GW don't even sell that box anymore. I bought it from my local indipendent store owner. It was his. I don’t get what you are getting at, at that time a month ago Warriors, thunderers, unforged, and cannon were still viable as far as everything was concerned. The only unit not was the miners. At the very least it just cost me $15. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bladedwind Posted August 3, 2019 Share Posted August 3, 2019 They got rid of a lot more then I was expecting. The jerks also doubled the price of a lot of the stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Furuzzolo Posted August 3, 2019 Share Posted August 3, 2019 The fact that the cannon is in a legal matched-play merc company make it possible that's going to be replaced by a new sculpt. IMHO. But again what's the point in this premature rage/speculation? Lets wait a couple of days. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dammaz Posted August 3, 2019 Share Posted August 3, 2019 Probably because there is a lot of love, time and money spent for our plastics minis. Things can get personnal in that case. But that's true, let's wait a little bit more and see what might happen... 2 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's your Last Chance to Buy these classic Aelf, Duardin and Free Peoples models! If you've always dreamed of owning these miniatures, this is your final opportunity to secure yours – they're going fast and not coming back.

The Cranky Dwarf Posted August 3, 2019 Share Posted August 3, 2019 Well the unforged was kind of expected, he never really fit in aos. But the cannons loss is mighty odd. Quarrelers and thunderers I grudgingly accept were redundant and had severely outdated models in a combined force. Still I'm sad to see them go. I forsee it being only a matter of time before the end of the dispossessed however as this does not bode well. I hope I'm wrong but I'm not very confident in that.

Ragnar Alpaca Posted August 3, 2019 Share Posted August 3, 2019 This doesn’t look great lads. I’m very disappointed, I held out hope that we would get our own tome right until I seen the CoS tome, and even after that I held out hope that we would be able to play a pure dwarf force. This is just awful though, I expected the quarellers and thunderers, but the cannon, organ gun, unforged, and warriors!? That’s most of my force of dwarfs and I guess they’re all just useless now. That’s really sad and I hope GW know that they’ve upset a lot of people by doing this. With saying that this is going in the book, and will not be taken out until we get new models. So most likely never. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ironbreaker Posted August 3, 2019 Share Posted August 3, 2019 I don’t know about you guys, but I’m shopping around for a new army now. What really sucks is most of the stuff is just too outlandish. I want something more grounded. Nothing really appeals to my tastes. Order is basically GA: Stormcasts and Aelves at this point. Dispossessed had that comfy “hearth and home” feel to them that’s is sadly missing is the other armies. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Dispossessed sell well there is still a potential expansion in the future IMO. GW is first and foremost a business. The pruning opens up room for new, more fantastical kits. I expected the warriors to go for some time. They showed their age and you don’t need 3 different options of duardin on foot with either great weapons or weapon/shields. Thought thunderers were 50/50, and I agree that the Unforged felt out of place. I also feel that Dispossessed are really strongly integrated into the setting narrative, more so than other legacy non-humans. I don’t expect an expansion any time soon and the demand needs to be there, but strangely I am now more likely to start a Dispossessed force that I’ve been flirting with the last couple of years.

WatcherintheWater Posted August 3, 2019 Share Posted August 3, 2019 Wonder if we are going to see some of the similar warscrolls across races consolidated and made non race specific. Like Thunderers and free guild hand gunner merge under a new scroll called Free cities hand gunners which can be any race. The same could happen with Quarrelers and free guild crossbows and a bunch more. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Cranky Dwarf Posted August 3, 2019 Share Posted August 3, 2019 In part I wonder if this is a effort to downsize factions to match most of the new ones. For example most army's ( Slayers/ ko .ect only have 3-5 units and then a few hero's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've got Gloomspite gitz I cn play with, to be honest I've been enjoying the middle earth game a lot more and at least I know those models are timeless.

the_master288 Posted August 3, 2019 Share Posted August 3, 2019 (edited) That feel when GW still doesn’t understand what people want. Gutting almost, if not all classic Aelf factions and Dispossessed models, really goes to show the GW and the AoS are so out of touch with the fan base.

Double Misfire Posted August 3, 2019 Share Posted August 3, 2019 Unless your army had a lot of Thunderers and Quarrellers in it, in which case my heart goes out to you, everyone kicking off about the Dispossessed kits being axed needs to calm their ****** and count the positives. You can continue to use Warrior (and Miner for that matter) minis as Longbeards (hopefully getting a new name in the new book, as the current plastic Longbeards' beards really aren't that long... 🙄), and the Unforged as an allied Grimwrath Berzerker. If anything they both got rules upgrades. 1 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
