The Soulbound book mentions the council of Glymmsforge stemming the tide of the growing Ossiarch Empire. Ah thanks, so does Soulbound specifically mention Katakros or just the Ossiarch?

It got to be such a joke in the community that GW would let leaks of it coming out constantly, references would appear around new edition releases or army books. It got to be such a common joke a fan army book was made for them. the actual army of course was never released. Grotbag's seem to be turning into asimilar habit all sorta like the Hrud and space skaven for 40k Edited June 23, 2020 by Evangelist of Cinders 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maddpainting Posted June 24, 2020 Share Posted June 24, 2020 WHFB also had water battles, I remember those "rumors" only when new missions for them came out in the WD's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is not much about Katakros in Soulbound - it says that the OBR are what Order is concerned most about among the Undead forces, and the OBR are constantly expanding their empire. And that he is trying to seize Eightpoints. That's about it if I remember correctly. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skreech Verminking Posted June 24, 2020 Share Posted June 24, 2020 (edited) Edit: So I was wondering, has there been any rumors, about the next ghb coming out or, has there been lately any mention of new miniatures for the desperate skaven race?

Neverchosen Posted June 24, 2020 Share Posted June 24, 2020 @Skreech Verminking The Skaven would be in the Chaos narrative, overlooked until the final moments. In the end Nagash will realize that while he was focused on taking the Eight Points the Skaven have completely overrun Shyish. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of solid effort has been made to flesh out Nagash's character and philosophy but we always have the skaven to remind us that deep down, he's a Saturday morning cartoon villain getting his schemes ruined by literal rats.

Also the arm and sword image, part of me is saying Soulblight rather than aelf. Still I am going to hold out hope that we get an Idoneth vs DoK army box with updates and models for both. I‘d love a new Medusa and female heavy DoK Cavalry For Idoneth : At least a kraken pls! Or fish swarms? 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Overread Posted June 24, 2020 Share Posted June 24, 2020 It's somewhat amusing how many hydra appear in the "Show us your DoK" army on the GW Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/pg/GWWarhammerAgeofSigmar/posts/?ref=page_internal That said I guess it didn't appear because the infantry behind it were male not female; however its very easy to swap them over for some witch aelves. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Kraken should definitely be a part of them, hey the Sons of Behemat have a Kraken Eater...maybe the tentacle is a Rumour Engine in disguise!! Seriosuly though they should have a Kraken and Giant Crabs. 1 hour ago, Neverchosen said: I feel that what I want as an Idoneth Player is an Ogre/Troll sized unit.

The beasthandlers are a guy and a gal, as it happens, but they're definitely more styled like corsairs than DoK. I guess part of it was they'd already split the kits out into smaller keyworded factions? I don't mind DoK not having a big monster piece, they're a religious cult, not animal handlers, but the hydra certainly wouldn't look out of place. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KingBrodd Posted June 24, 2020 Share Posted June 24, 2020 I'm just clamouring for some new lore, cannot wait till everyone gets their hands on the Lumineth Battletome this weekend and we can find out more about the Realm Lords and perhaps a hint at where Tyrion has been. We may even get out first official mention of the Sons of Behemat in there. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has been more than 2 months now since they previewed anything AoS related and we still have the Warhammer Fest preview to be shown.

It does suck at the moment because AOS is getting 2 New Factions and they're getting outshone by 40Ks new edition. Are we sure they havent shown anything for Warhammerfest? If not what could be shown for AOS? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They said they split Adepticon roughly in 4 sessions and they gave us 3 previews, the last one being one week after when Warhammer Fest would have happened, so it’s safe to assume they had more to show us but it has all been delayed. About what, that is the key question. No offence on Lumineth or Sons but they are quite “old” now so would be good to see what’s after.

Beastmaster Posted June 25, 2020 Share Posted June 25, 2020 (edited) More and more I begin to think that this whole Hype thing is just overrated. Sure, with the first pictures everyone (me included) thinks „New! Shiny!“, but does that generate sales? Until the new miniatures are available, that first hype is long gone, and anyone not completely new to miniatures knows that building an army is a long-term project anyway. So, maybe for most the decision for or against an army is more of a long-term process, too. Guided by a comparison of all the armies available, and it doesn’t matter so much how old or new they are.

No, it's because the balloons fly them to the highest tiers. I don't think other armies fly as high as Kharadron. Except for flying Gloomspite, but it's a different high. 1 1 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
