The Rumour Thread

Well look at these guys!? Who are they!?

They're Kurnothi. The quote is attributed to one of their warband and he has the same orange hair/tail. The armour design is admittedly different though.

Those Order/Chaos Underworlds dice are tacky as hell.

The lack of specific-dice and sleeves for the two new warbands surprises me though. I had been planning to buy the themed sleeves to put the corebox warbands in, but hopefully they're coming later down the line - might be that being done by a third party the supply chain had a breakdown somewhere.

A new Kurnothi Warband perhaps? Is that one of the Silent Ones being used as armour?

What if the Silent People are a parasitic race of Chitin armors, taking hold progressively of its host ?

Looks like the "armor" is growing on that poor Kurnothi (on each cards form right to left - it's the same Blightking dying in each card).

The text from the first card (and what can be read in the last one) seems to support this theory,

It would be really interesting if thats the case and we got a warband of them with 3~6 models each from a different races taken by them! The armor could even be related to the Beastgrave itself, something that capture warriors traped inside and turn them, making them help the mountain feed on what is left of their warband.

On the cards itself the sequence seens to be the left one, them the right one and the middle one at the end (judging by the amount of flesh/armor that appear on each art).

If the Silent People range is a death army composed entirely of Woodelf models possessed by bone armour I oddly know one person that  would be extremely happy. He exclusively plays death but loves Wood Elves so this would make his day! However, I do not think the other cards all showcase Kurnothi warbands. 

Although I think as @novakai points out it is likely the case of it being an effect and not necessarily reflective of the models themselves.

quarry and hunter must be new mechanics for this season, maybe there stuff that turns warband members against each other

Hunter and quarry were introduced last season, they’re basically just keywords that interact with different effects on cards (e.g ‘score this immediately when a friendly Hunter takes an enemy Quarry out of action’)

Hoping to see the AoS stats of the Slaanesh warband to get a vague idea of what the new units will do when the proper release comes around. Of course, most abilities aren't replicated, but the attacks are usually similar (tend to be slightly worse on the underworld's side) and we may get ideas of wounds on the Slaangor etc.

Primacy and Hunger are the new rules for this season (as per the original preview where they showed the new warbands off). Hunter and Quarry are from Beastgrave.
