The World Tree Posted April 22, 2019 Share Posted April 22, 2019 I bet it is the boobworm lord, in the same way that the Fatemaster got its name and the Harbinger of Decay. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TBH nothing about it screams "Bladebringer" to me. It will rather be Mirror of Decadence or something. Ok, now I think about it, you could be right, maybe it's not a mirror but a portal that, literally, brings blades for Hedonites. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never heard of a Bladebringer before.

michu Posted April 22, 2019 Share Posted April 22, 2019 I don't think so @shinros. As other (and me) already said, it could be just new name for old unit, maybe it's Chaos Lord of Slaanesh on foot or on the steed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elfhead Posted April 22, 2019 Share Posted April 22, 2019 I'd like to reserve judgement until we are absolutely certain there isn't going to be more releases in the coming weeks. But for now I'm somewhat disappointed. I have never liked the aesthetic of the plastic daemonettes and I'm not thrilled they have expanded the look with these new models. I absolutely hate the plastic steeds of slaanesh (the tail is too short and the legs too thick) and I'm really not a fan of the ' boots of skin with feet attached' look. that's why is don't like the new keeper, because the boots make up almost half of the model. The torso and head are beautifull though. But I really hoped for a keeper more similar to the artwork I use as my avatar... Like most of you I was really hoping for some mortals or even slaangor. We've had a chaos release every Christmas for the last couple of years. When we didn't see Slaanesh last christmas I thought they might be holding out for an even bigger event with the story arc of captured Slaanesh. And now it seems it is a regular one or two week release? BUT one of the hosts is still called ' seekers'. Which makes me think Slaanesh is still captured and we might see more for Slaanesh when/if he gets released? That might still be something to get excited about. I also don't like they keep pointing out you can use all these releases in 40k. If one of the Warcry warbands looks like Slaanesh mortals (even though they all are undivided) than I'll be happy. As I'm only in it for the holy I'll only need one unit of mortals. I guess I'll just get Sys'Lex and cut off the daemonette on top of him by her weird clunky feet.

Overread Posted April 22, 2019 Share Posted April 22, 2019 Just a point - we know there will be a second wave. It's 100% confirmed its jsut very unlikely to be the week after. The new fiends and harpist are both still only sold in the duel box of Wrath and Rapture. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They don't need to release a new book to release a new model - heck they are already saying new rules for the 40K side of these models are going in the boxes as opposed to in a new demons book for them.

zamerion Posted April 22, 2019 Share Posted April 22, 2019 This makes larger models with multiple Wounds, like the Keeper of Secrets and Bladebringer, Herald on Exalted Chariot extremely useful.

And I can guarantee all of you it's just a normal Herald on Exalted chariot with a new name, like "Skullmaster, Herald of Khorne" (not a new unit nor a named unit like Skull Taker). EDIT : or the Herald of Nurgle now called : Poxbringer, Herald of Nurgle. Edited April 22, 2019 by HorticulusTGA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Malin Posted April 22, 2019 Share Posted April 22, 2019 Allied Beasts of Chaos. This makes.me interested more in this battletome. After total disappointment, which was Blade of Khorne battletome, which showed no love to gors and their friends this will be nice change. Bring it on! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chord Posted April 22, 2019 Share Posted April 22, 2019 Maybe the story line is not ready for slaanesh mortals. For instance if slaanesh's prison isn't broken open yet just weakened enough for the demons. Then in a year or so the story could be slanesh being totally free and corrupting mortals Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
relic456 Posted April 22, 2019 Share Posted April 22, 2019 Toss my hat in the pile of "super bummed Slaanesh didn't get its own mortals". Such a great design space left empty. For rumors, did anyone else notice this? Why do they specify CHAOS Slaanesh models? I don't think the other Chaos god tomes ever make that distinction (correct me if I'm wrong!). A hint at the next elf release having ORDER Slaanesh? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Overread Posted April 22, 2019 Share Posted April 22, 2019 Actually most mortals never ever interact with the Chaos Gods They interact with Greater Demons and demons of Chaos instead. Even the Skaven mostly interact with Verminlords not the Great Horned one. So the god being imprisoned won't have stopped the Greater Demons tempting and twisting mortals. Heck the Infernal Enwraptress has her own mortal harp to play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mayple Posted April 22, 2019 Share Posted April 22, 2019 Rules look great, but I'm not keen on playing a horde of daemons At this rate it looks like aelves might get their release before Slaanesh gets their mortals, so I'll probably end up going that direction instead. Which is fine. I've been waiting for that a lot longer than I've been waiting for Slaanesh anyway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would they ever make a non-chaos Slaanesh faction if you wouldn't be able to play them together? It makes more sense to make them a related but ultimately distinct faction like the Daughters of Khaine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
