Baron Klatz Posted February 8, 2020 Share Posted February 8, 2020 (edited) True, plus the champions could just refer to the commanders who got overwhelmed fighting a bloody demigod. Them getting away to fight another day could attest to that. Just now, Gecktron said: So, if I remember right, the last Lumineth lowdown was monday, the 27th. So chances are we are getting a new article on monday? They said 2 weeks after the first Lumineth lore article so that should be the case.

OkayestDM Posted February 9, 2020 Share Posted February 9, 2020 Veering slightly from the current conversation track, but what if all the imminent and rumored Aelven releases are because the next big lore event is going to be Slaanesh escaping captivity? Wrath of the Everchosen hung a lantern on the Dark Prince, who hasn't gotten a lot of lore publicity since the HoS release. Not really conclusive proof, but coupled with the Aelves, it might be leading in that direction? 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koradrel of Chrace Posted February 9, 2020 Share Posted February 9, 2020 @OkayestDM Ha! I just asked pretty much the same thing in the Lumineth thread! With the added caveat of wondering Malarion's response to these events as well! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baron Klatz Posted February 9, 2020 Share Posted February 9, 2020 (edited) I'm just glad the aelven gods were hinted at moving it. Bloody prison was right next to the city soul of Shadespire. If Slaanesh broke free there then all those souls contained in Shadeglass would become daemon rock candy.

Dr Ben Posted February 9, 2020 Share Posted February 9, 2020 12 hours ago, Baron Klatz said: Warmachines semi-confirmed then. Stormcast/Knights Excelsior had giant ballistaes in Excelsis a year before Sacrosanct released so it can just be fluff decoration(for now). Interesting bit is "finest champions". After this crushing defeat it's possible the Realmlord's release is Teclis reforming their army with new troops, creatures and powers because of how inefficient they were against the Varanguard. As confirmed as cannons in greywater fastness? 😜 It is another bit of lore connecting both Teclis and tyrion to the lumineth. So it does seem to strengthen the suggestion Tyrion might be coming in the lumineth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they are following a sort of Psychic Awakening style of development of the plot and the range of models, I think we will see that in 2021. Wrath of the Everchosen - Attack on Excelsis (Fall 2020) - Fight for Slaanesh (Spring 2021) (With possible Malerion's aelf's joining the fight, as suggested by @Koradrel of Chrace) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That sounds about right to me, especially given the timeframe for current releases. I've been hoping for a Destruction Ascendant story arch, but in all honesty Slaanesh would be a bigger shakeup and makes more sense as an event overshadowing Nagash's recent skullduggery.

Twisted Firaun Posted February 9, 2020 Share Posted February 9, 2020 Much as I’d love to make jokes about the possible Slaaneshi upgrade kit(probably some Daemonettes “playing” with each head) I’m going to suggest the possibility of plastic chaos dwarfs once again. Wrath of the Everchosen gave us some lore hints that the OBR killed more then a few “corrupted duardin” kingdoms before attacking Eightpoints plus the recent S2D battletome mentioned that certain chaos warriors and lords get rune covered armour from the “Furnace Kings of Azgorh” who were mentioned all the way back in the Realmgate Wars! Finally we have the Spire Tyrants and Iron Golems warbands from Warcry, both having a(from what I’ve seen) beloved plastic chaos dwarf. of course, I could be looking too much into simple fan pandering and callbacks from GW lore writers and modelers, but one of the things that got me into the hobby(besides the cyborgs of the mechanics in 40k) was the awesome idea of magic using dwarves who worshipped an evil Bull and built actual murder trains. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both! Haha look how that turned out. I fully agree. That whole trouble with things being defendable in court always applied to the more generic factions. but the way you described chaos dwarfs is so unique. They are a shoe in for a aos army. Just don’t know how they sold in the old world and if that hurts the chances of a release. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only thing I could think of that could explain this, is if they get new models sometime soon so GW is waiting for that to release the cards (or they just forgot to put them in the preview) Or GW is just GW and does whatever it wants Edited February 9, 2020 by Matrindur 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fyreslayers were included, which unless GW just forgot to mention them in the article makes their absence bizarre. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
