Sance Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 We will see Scion of Flames at adepticon i think 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madmac Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 Scions of the Flame or not, we're definitely due some Warcry news soon. They've released all the second wave cards, the new monsters, ect. I imagine at some point we'll get another monsters and mercenaries book to beef up the roster of heroes and monsters available, Scions eventually, and probably a new starter this summer.

GeneralZero Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 (edited) For now, we only have 6 lumineth reveals: 3 HQ, riders, infantry, archers. Is it a little half or a big half of this army? Comparing to the last 100% new army, OBR, we are far from done here: OBR = 6+1 HQ (with the horse double kit) , 2 war machines, one elite double kit and even a second double kit one but already existing (morghasts), riders, infantry, 1 decor and 3 ES...and last but not least : 2 big daddys already exsiting: nagash and arkhan that give many more options. Writing this, I'm worrying that we are far from an OBR size like army. Maybe if GW includes some of the existing minis/units/HQ.

Overread Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 It's really impossible to know. Remembering that GW doesn't play the short game with releases - a smaller release now might just mean that there's an equally sized release a few months down the line. Drops like Sisters of Battle are exceptional in how many kits they released in such a short span of time. Typically GW doesn't release "too" many all in one go because if you release far too much at once you basically oversaturate that market segment. Which means you might be releasing models that gamers haven't got the budget for. That said AoS does work with a lot of very small armies, so they could go either way. I still think there's a good few things still to come and a good few we won't see until the big reveal event/news. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DantePQ Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 Yeah judging by OBR/Deepkin release we still should get minimum : - 3 more clampack heroes - mounted hero/named charcter dual kit (might be Tyrion) - elite infantry dual kit - 2 kits out of 3 possible - warmachine, monster, bigger infantry/cavalery.

You're limited when the model must be ETB and all models must fit on 2 hero sized sprues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charleston Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 It is funny how people feel discomfort about the Lumineth-Bows, but noone around seems to find the Sauna-hats weird. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beastmaster Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 My association went more in the direction of Korean medieval helmets. Now I wonder what associations people would have if the old high elf models came out in this day and age 😄😄 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neverchosen Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 (edited) I absolutely love the new mage and the Daughters of Khaine Underworlds set. However, I am sad about no Warcy news and the archers are thus far my least favourite Lumineth models (I actually don't mind the hats, they simply feel to static to me). Oh and I am totally converting those Necromunda 'Death-maidens' into Warqueens for my chaos army! 😃 So going in with no expectations, I am actually overall quite happy with these reveals.

Overread Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 Hey its not that bad - phyrr cats (which were at one point shown as models) have vanished into the ether so far that Ecsher even has some new cat-lizard things which have appeared before the Phyrr cats are remade and released!

I hate their „helmets“. The worst part about them is that they don‘t look like helmets ^^ The Lumineth have been a downward spiral for me. I loved the riders and Elthsrion, was somewhat okay with the clunky Spearmen helmets, was absolutely against Teclis that does his artwork no justice at all. Simply dislike the Mage for his stupid helmet and hate the Archers for their stupid bows, bad helmet design and utterly oversized quivers. As my brother pointed out „the designers tried desperately to make them look Asian while not knowing how to properly do that so they mixed and dismatched everything remotely Asian and oversized those parts to stupidity“ maybe I am too old and have studied design for too long to be able to like bad design when I see it. Btw the longer you look at something ugly, the more you like it, so I am not surprised people who first disliked Trclis are now okay with it, it‘s how humans work. Yet is the product really worth it if you have to force yourself to like it I wonder 🤔 (that‘s more of a question to myself since I want to like them...)

Beastmaster Posted March 11, 2020 Share Posted March 11, 2020 (edited) Not everyone will like the same army. That’s good, helps diversity. And fun killing models you hate. 😁 Edited March 11, 2020 by Beastmaster 4 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On a philosophical level. No it makes no difference if you had to force yourself to like it, as long as you don’t keep forcing yourself. On a more practical level it does seem like a waste doesn’t it 😅 my mind instantly went to coffee as a comparison. Most people don’t like the first taste of it. But after ‘forcing’ themselves to like it, genuinely love it.

Looks like internet memes spoiled so many miniature poses. As I don't know where that "T-pose" meme come from or what does it mean, I see Teclis' pose as partially "Bask in my glory!" and "Run mortal or feel my wrath". And it's beautifully executed. I think I can see sunlight (or moonlight) coming from behind him. Edited March 11, 2020 by michu 6 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
