They hyped the release and content of the book, then had to announce that it was delayed. They are likely sticking to their planned release schedule despite the fact that they might not be able to release things on time, which is probably for the best - though it's definitely going to cut into their ability to do business if this persists over a longer time period.

Whether it actually comes out on time is another matter... edit- looks like they are publishing points updates for free as an online download, so we won't have to wait for those! Very handy if the bulk of the book gets delayed by shipping issues. it said it next weeks preorder judging by the tab logo on the home page Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No they didn’t. They showed stuff from it when they said it was delayed, but all they’d told us about before that was Looncurse. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GW has explicitly told us that the models in Looncurse will be made available individually. I can't recall but they probably said the same about Carrion Empire as well. Until GW comes out and has a release date for them, it's all just talk. I'm want to see them actually release them. They still have lots to release, including models from the 1st edition box set, so, the wait and see approach doesn't seem to be doing GW any favors. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
novakai Posted June 9, 2019 Share Posted June 9, 2019 hmm doesn't look like any new army got allegiance abilities outside the remaining seven that got them last year. I hope at least the ones that had existing ones get updated and refined like Freeguild, Dispossessed, Darkling Coven, and Ironjawz 2 minutes ago, the_master288 said: Until GW comes out and has a release date for them, it's all just talk.

I think those models are forever going to be released as part of their respective starter set just like you can't buy Carnisaur outside of the Seraphon starter box Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shankelton Posted June 9, 2019 Share Posted June 9, 2019 Looks like allegiance abilities for some factions. Good news for some of the armies contemplating their futures for sure! Also, correct me if I'm wrong. But any army getting abilities is unlikely to get a book on the immediate future right? If so, certainly narrows it down.

The option is available on the website. You'd have to be an moron to do that though, because the Carnosaur is 85$ and the SC is 90. You're thinking of the Magmadroth which you can't buy because it's MORE expensive than the SC and abusive as GW are, they're not THAT abusive.

Anyone who missed out due to them not making enough won't ever get that cool stuff. It's more than just a few models. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gutbusters battletome confirmed keep in mind those where the same armies that had Allegiance abilities last year, but they didn't get an update between GHB releases, it could just be a copy paste from last year with minor tweaks. also, like someone said BoC got a Battletome 2 months later despite having a brayherd entry in GHB 2018 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ogregut Posted June 9, 2019 Share Posted June 9, 2019 Looking forward to seeing the darkling covens new abilities, my sorceress may leave her tower to lead an army! I would love them to combine a few fractured armies into one, like putting the shadowblades into the darkling covers, would make the army a bit more playable 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Overread Posted June 9, 2019 Share Posted June 9, 2019 Ironjawz, Seraphon, Wanderers, Darkling Covens, Free Peoples, Slaves to Darkness and Dispossessed Interesting selection of armies! Slaves to Darkness is a shock as one would have thought them getting a release close to Warcry. Meanwhile both Darklings and Wanderers are getting their own rules once again rather than under Aelves. If we assume those armies listed are a longish way off getting a new Battletome (and thus making it worth including) then we might be able to guess some possible nearish battletomes from this list Aelves - whilst two aelf forces are mentioned there's still the chance another might get added. Kharadron Overlords Tzeentch - read mixed views on if their tome is "old" or "new" as such. If it counts as old then they are on the cards Everchosen - Slaves to Darkness and Everchosen are duel listed on the site, so it might be that they are both to be rolled into one - could be a new Battletome/army name so Slaves to Darkness remained in the GHB as a legacy option; or might be that Everchosen will get beefed up to a full army. Very hard to say. Still surprised Slaves are in the book at all as one would have thought this wing of Chaos would have had updates to coincide with Warcry Beastclaws Gutbusters - both these and Beastclaw Raiders are a higher chance now of getting a new tome - likely Ogors tome after the survey which combined the two into one listingBonesplitterz - again like Slaves could be that the combined tome will make Ironjawz into a legacy army form; otherwise could be that the orruk forces will remain split. Even if we only got a few of them that would easily take us up to near Christmas, baring in mind the "new tome per grand alliance still to come" comment which means that there's likely still a Death Battletome to come (though it could even be a Grand Alliance Death battletome so no new army as such). 6 months or so would make it worth adding to the GHB to cover that wait period. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aloth_Corfiser Posted June 9, 2019 Share Posted June 9, 2019 Am I just delusional or do the 6 small Icons for the command points seem to correspond with the six factions mentioned in the article? I can see the helmet matching Dispossessed and the spiral pattern matching Wanderers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sorokyl Posted June 9, 2019 Share Posted June 9, 2019 4 hours ago, Austin said: GW is struggling hard with logistics and/or knowing what their customers want. I am not sure why, but to say they aren't ignores clear evidence. I don't even know if it is hurting them that much since they continue to make massive profits lately. I do know that everyone who says the Looncurse fiasco isn't a big deal because of course GW will release the new models separately is totally ignoring that you STILL after three years cannot buy a Lord-Relictor from the initial starter set. If you want a mounted Knight of Shrouds- better buy that full box. Or more recently the Skaven box is a warning sign. You guys don't understand how GW works. They can only produce so much plastic a week. They need to expand their factories. That is not easy fast or cheap. This is why most releases this year are terrain/spells. They don't have to make minis. As far as complaints about Lord Relictor, Island of Blood, again you have to understand the reality. Lord relictor is on a sprue with other minis. It will never be sold alone unless it is redesigned from scratch. Same for any mini that shares a sprue with other minis. 3 hours ago, Mungrun said: Gutbusters absence makes me think that their battletome is near (this year) Dont read into it.
