If you take the picture as your guide it'd be gut busters, stormcast, soulblight, tzneetch and/or nurgle. There used to be another version of this with blades of khorne though.

FlatTooth Posted May 13, 2019 Share Posted May 13, 2019 The Order, Death and Destruction images are literally the icons for the GAs in the big core book so I’m not looking to them for any indication other than “we think these images represent the GAs”. The Chaos symbol is a representation of the big 4 and the rats so arguably more neutral than the Khorne image they use in the book. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pseudonyme Posted May 13, 2019 Share Posted May 13, 2019 My only problem concerning the "Soulblight is just an icon, you should not read anything behind", is as it is 'oy a proper faction since the beginning of AoS, why didn' t they put Nagash or Arkhan ? That would be so much more relevant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5kaven5lave Posted May 13, 2019 Share Posted May 13, 2019 Haven’t we already seen that exact image last year? It looks very familiar to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maier666 Posted May 13, 2019 Share Posted May 13, 2019 Do I read the preview correct that all the Dominion of Sigmar Scenery is also in Forbidden Power? 'In addition to loads of new rules and background, the expansion includes a new piece of modular scenery – a Penumbral Engine – and four new endless spells in the form of a Soulscream Bridge, Horrorghast, Shards of Valagharr and Lauchon the Soulseeker. The set also includes warscroll cards for each of the endless spells as well as the Penumbral Engine and all of the new terrain kits from the new Dominion of Sigmar scenery range. Speaking of which…' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fact it suggests that the terrain has warscrolls rather htan just rules. Of course being terrain you can use it with or without the dedicated warscrolls. It's part of GW's move to not have as much generic terrain and instead have more specific terrain features with dedicated warscroll rules.

Or that you got totally distracted all day by the contrast paint? - note just read your bit in the contrast thread and saw the mini you painted. For a non-painter like myself that looks darn impressive for what was basically a "slap it on in 5 mins before its all over" type of model. I agree there's still the detailing and some more highlighting would improve it, but it provides a fantastic base to work from. What will really be interesting is mixing it with other colours and washes and the like. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In short yes 😭 I've yet to write up a review, but this year I found the structure of the event was far too tight (combined with some not great organisation in places), which resulted in me having hardly any time to talk to many of the staff. I nearly always do feedback to the events team so will likely try and construct something again (disclaimer - it was still a great event). I'm actually quite excited by the potential opportunities of the contrast paint, can see there being some really off-tangent applications once people start playing with it. It also very much emphasises the argument that there's no excuse to play with an unpainted army! Don't get me wrong, we're still going to see some pieces that would fit into a Stephen King novel, but as you say, that really solid base is often all people need to start hitting the next level. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Overread Posted May 13, 2019 Share Posted May 13, 2019 I think the quick good result is going to be a big thing; giving highlights and shades in one go along with the layer colour is going to boost the confidence of many to get stuck in with painting. Plus its a step away from the "ok so you need 3 or 4 layers of paint per colour and two coats of each colour so that's 6 to 8 layers and you've got, what 5 or 6 colours so that --- -- "" etc approach. Which works well, but can appear really complicated and is even more so if you don't spend time working out the order to paint it all up in. Whichis the approach that the paint app suggests since most of those colours are indeed made up of several layers. The contrast paint is very much - you want red get the red paint pot and slap it on - done. Coupled to metallic paints and the paints like red gore and the weathering paints and painting its really establishing a powerful toolkit.

alghero81 Posted May 13, 2019 Share Posted May 13, 2019 A new Death faction would have me super excited cause aside the Nighthaunt the rest of the models are quite ancient and anything new would need to have more models and replacing the existing ones. I only hope they will be less generous with the new models because you don’t really need all those present in the Nighthaunt release... For all speaking about Tomb Kings, how can that not be a brand new faction anyway?? They surely are not going to recycle the old miniatures even if they were coming back, so new for new all factions are up for the grabs. But I would see Deathrattle in front of Soulblight because of the Shadespire warband. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I imagine it would be Deathrattle or Soulblight (either linked to whichever of Nagash’s allies has been locked up by Sigmar). I’d love to see Soulblight but with Aelven and Dwarven vampires too. Now all the races are living together it would be odd that Death is still only human. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We never had confirmation of elf or dwarf (or halfling!) vampires existing in WFB, so it would be a bit of a curveball. Other races' skeletons again would be great though!

Twisted Firaun Posted May 13, 2019 Share Posted May 13, 2019 I've done some research on the end times(before my coming to the hobby) it is said that Khalida decided to join Nagash instead of having her bones scattered across the desert like Settra, so there's a possibility.

angrycontra Posted May 13, 2019 Share Posted May 13, 2019 For death, I believe there is ongoing rumour that death is going to receive new legions of nagash tome to replace the old one (and seperate nighthaunt completely from LoN) with new models added. Doesn't sound unbelievable to me, considering that only 1 and half year ago they released chaos space marines codex with no new models and only recently they released abaddon and friends to supplement that codex and soon it has been 1 and half years from LoN release. Most likely will be tied to this stormvault thingy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mostly just points values that need amending imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lobeau Posted May 13, 2019 Share Posted May 13, 2019 I suppose the cursed company were only undead dwarves, skaven, lizardmen, and such. It wouldn't be too much of a stretch to make them vampires. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spoiler It's revealed that she was never made a vampire, but that Nagash being resurrected as an Incarnate had caused her to become the reincarnation of/new elven goddess of death. Eldyra and the von Carstiens only thought she was a vampire long enough for Lileath to turn up and reveal this.
