Thiagoma Posted May 16, 2019 Share Posted May 16, 2019 (edited) Look a bit Elvish. The "h" looking rune is La´Coi (Might,Glory, Fear of Death) Edited May 16, 2019 by Thiagoma 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is anyone here familiar with the letters of any of GW's imaginary languages? Could it be Dwarven, Elvish, or Chaos runes? I think the closest match is the scribbling on Stormcast and terrain. Now, so far I think we've only seen it on Azyrite stuff, but I think it might actually be a sort of common tongue rune system dating back to the Age of Myth. In that case Death would use it as well (while Chaos and Destruction wouldn't, both still ousing their own dating back to the World-That-Was). So we have the possibilities of it being censure by Sigmar or Shyishian. I lean towards the later since it looks a bit less stylised than the Azyrite stuff, but that might just be my perception or the low resolution of the image.

As an aside, they also said that the non-Chaos factions (so Gloomspite, Stormcast, etc) would receive War Cry-specific models eventually. Just not at initial release Well, they said ‘who knows what the future holds for them’. They didn’t actually say they would be getting them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoseman Posted May 16, 2019 Share Posted May 16, 2019 So will forbidden powers book clearly say who it is??? We are asuming that the "great and ancient evil trapped on the shores of Lake Lethis" is that guy behind Oly and Prime but maybe is just an endles spell or Nagash playing with a puppet , and that ancient evil is not a guy and is a soul eater sword that ate his boss one or I don't know, just Sauron's ring. So... will the book say clearly WHY and WHERE are they fighting and WHO or WHAT is that great and ancient evil?? I wanna know!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EccentricCircle Posted May 16, 2019 Share Posted May 16, 2019 Page 1066! anyone got any rumours pertaining to historical wargaming to commemorate the event? I agree that the runes look like the azyrite text on the various scenery kits. The chaos runes have a much more angular look, with a few exceptions. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JackStreicher Posted May 16, 2019 Share Posted May 16, 2019 I've played a little with the contrast (pun intended). The Runes are way more recognizable now: But wait, there is more on its hand (and was even before using Contrast) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
