Given there have now been quite a few Aelven rumour engines do you reckon that release is close? And looking at michu’s post above... more Hyshian mystery! Close, I'm not sure. Just give me some new models and a combined high elf book and I'll be happy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah but that's all we have - the word of one person that "they are coming" in some form. Which is nice, but its just one source. We've no additional sources of such a rumour and no photos or any other documentation to back it up. Right now TK or an army that uses their models/theme/style is basically still only in the legacy of the game and in the dreams of gamers.

CJPT Posted July 5, 2019 Share Posted July 5, 2019 Elixia shows up in the early Realmgate Wars novels, I believe, and there's a silver banshee who aids the Stormcast. I think the important part is 'breathtaking and lifelike silver statuary' which is (a) new and (b) fits with rumours of a construct-based new Death faction. The next big thing is clearly coming from Chamon, one way or another. Everything revolved around Shyish in the long run-up to AoS 2.0, and something similar has been happening with the Realm of Metal all year - Carrion Empire and Looncurse are both set there, and it's constantly coming up in White Dwarf. Happy I've spent a year and a half building a 6'x4' Chamon board! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prices are going up in Germany too. Info is in the newsletter for retailers. If this regards the trees I don't know, so far I know that some of the 40 tanks and the Blood Bowl stuff is getting an almost 25% price increase. Now, I don't have an intention to start talk about the prices again - everybody who's been watching with open eyes can see, that we're almost back at 8th edition with the market behaivement. Thanks to GHB armies grow in sizes (30+ regiments) and people think it's a must with certain point values. Bigger armies = more revenue and the same goes for a higher price tag on more effective units. Pretty simple pay to win principle...if that is what is important to you.

I actually wanted to write the same story but you were faster. The part with "breathtaking and lifelike silver statuary" isn't even that new because the Silver Maiden (or Celemnis the Swordmaiden of the Argent Sisterhood, like she was called back then) was doused with silver in the age of Chaos turning her into a lifelike silver statue (I basicly read the story weeks ago). But it was really nice that Elixia was mentioned again in the generals Handbook 2019 @DinoTitanedition My comment you quoted was about the Citadel woods, not the prices. I know that the pricerising will happen in germany too. 5 minutes ago, DinoTitanedition said: Now, I don't have an intention to start talk about the prices again - everybody who's been watching with open eyes can see, that we're almost back at 8th edition with the market behaivement.

The diffence is, that in AoS we have also playstyles for smaller games, and units with a size of 10 or 20 can do stuff too, where in WHFB you would simply lose to the passive bonus of a unit.

DinoTitanedition Posted July 5, 2019 Share Posted July 5, 2019 @EMMachine I don't know if it's like that in the UK too, but in my region "Narrative Play" has nearly died out since the introduction of the GHB. Skirmish went the same fate with the release of the WD rules. If it's smaller scale it usually means, it's rather a boxed game than AoS. But I'd be happy to see pointless games with smaller sizes make a return. I actually really liked the Skirmish supplement too. It worked, with what was in there. 2 hours ago, EMMachine said: units with a size of 10 or 20 can do stuff too, where in WHFB you would simply lose to the passive bonus of a unit That's why I wrote "almost". Though the smaller the unit gets, the more the trend leans toward a "monstrous" unit. Something that is modelwise big and pricewise costs the same as a unit with more small minis. There is still some great boxes out there though - I believe the Rockgut Troggoths are awesome for a multitude of systems beyond AoS. I use them for Blood Bowl for example, as you can make three from the box. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The GHB killed off narrative mostly because the addition of matched play drew back the players who lack social skills to set up fun balanced narrative games. I'm hoping the WD skirmish rules get releases as a pdf download 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

amysrevenge Posted July 5, 2019 Share Posted July 5, 2019 It has sure been a content desert for AoS on the Community page lately.

Nothing so far, just that it comes out at some time at the beginning of this month. although knowing Gw it could also be at the end of this month, as long as it is still in July Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
