Icegoat Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 Both new troggoths kits contain ruins that are clearly duardin dispossessed in origin. Clearly old world lookin dwarven ruins are held by the rock guts and the dankhold. The dwarves of old I think are ready to reclaim there holds from the foul rats and the gitz. Probably this year even. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ollie Grimwood Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 It’s certainly Duardin, it’s not necessarily Dispossessed though could as easily be Fireslayer. Though I do think there’s a strong chance that newer dispossessed models will find their way into new factions. Irondrakes seem made for AoS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Furuzzolo Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 Yeah, we discussed this in the Dispossessed post... And it's safe to say we painted a good number of those heads 😂 Def irondrakes and longbeards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jetengine Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 I suspect the Trolls were designed along time ago and GW were looking for the right release time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sleboda Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 I think it's a subtle message saying all the dispossessed have been turned to stone and killed by trolls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They all follow the same gods so the statues may be of those rather than units. But like I said the later Dwarf releases seemed like they had AoS in mind so I wouldn’t’t be surprised seeing them in AoS faction updates soon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KO are kinda "deists" ( gods exists (obviously) but they don't give a ****** about us). Dispossesed follow Grungi. So no, they do not follow same gods.

Where does it say Dispoessed exclusively follow Grungi? And I bet even though they are Grimnir obsessed the Fyreslayers still know that Grungi is a God Also the three (currently) Duardin factions come form the the same Ancestors and they only became distinct separate cultures following the coming of Chaos. Crikey those bits of stone my have even come from Age of Legends era Holds predating them all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They could, yea. That's an Helm, the statue represent a warrior, not a god.

The Dispossessed are the Duardin that made it to Azyr and Sigmar had purged that realm of nasties. So those ruins are from whatever was left behind from the Duardin civilisation that existed before the the split into KO, Fyreslayers and Dispossessed Of course they may be from somerhing they haven’t mentioned yet that utilises some of the exiting models. Which would match what we’ve seen so far from AoS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ironbreaker Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 Here are all the pieces for reference. The head held above the stone troll's head could be fyreslayer in origin, but I am still not convinced as there is not really a sign of a broken mohawk. The head on the squig is most definitely a Longbeard head. The banner looks similar to designs seen on Dispossessed banners. Finally, the head being used as a hammer looks similar to an Irondrake head, but with a much more bulbous cranium. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Furuzzolo Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 In the bottom right the helm does have a GEM engraved between the eyes, Hammerers do have gems like that one on the helmet...good lord i've painted a "couple" of those gems 😂 Upper left, yes, could be fyreslayers!

Skreech Verminking Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 I’m not sure if this is the right place to ask this, but wouldn’t a mega campaign, where the dwarfs (dispossesseds) want there home back and follow a mighty warrior king (dwarf king) into the depths of the mountains in chamon, to fight the gobbos and undervermin, sound cool?🤔 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The new Carrion Empire box set takes place in Chamon also. If there are anymore releases soon with Chamon mentioned, I would start taking notice. Same thing happened in 40k with the planet Vigilus. It kept appearing in releases and recently was reveled as a campaign. Mortal Realms are not as numerous as planets though so repeated references should be taken with a grain of salt since there are only twelve realms.

Deepkin Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 We did once hear rumors of a Grungni model, did we not? It was before the Kharadron release, so could've been a false alarm (or a misinterpreted Brokk Grungsson model?) but considering the Dispossessed figure fairly prominently in a lot of the background and have some rather recent model kits with an aesthetic distinct from their older stuff (the Ironbreakers/Hammerers and their dual kits), I wouldn't be surprised.

If we could get some new Dwarf Rangers in the same style as their Total War models I would die. That would be my one wish out of a release.
