Underworlds does have some quirky familiars / companions in a lot of warbands, so this could be a weird bat-creature accompanying it’s vampire masters. Might be linked to the fell bat advent rumour engine. 27 minutes ago, Neverchosen said: I think I might make her into a Darkoath Warqueen. Maybe pair her up with the Splintered Fang... Awesome idea, she’d look great with the greenish silver armour they wear. Could also kitbash with some Melusai parts for added chaotic mutations. Now that Bonesplittaz are confirmed, a reasonable guess is that these could be the related rumour engines. Spoiler 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glad to see GW still have it after their recent efforts, I.e. stormcast and darkoath . Agreed. Proper bad@ss female vamp warrior. Looks like she means business! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To me, the silhouette one looks like its holding a two-handed weapon above its head, like a giant spear or something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might be linked to the fell bat advent rumour engine. I'd almost bet money on the warband having some sort of creature. It would allow the unit to have more models without taking away from the "elite" status of vampires. So I figure 2-3 vamps and then 1-2 creatures of some sort.

Based on that front protrusion it looks to me like they're swinging a huge bone in an overhead chop but could well be a spear.

To be honest, with GW release dates being a bit out of wack, these guys could be 4+ months off - plenty of time to finish painting Slaanesh mortals. And while everyone's minds are on vampires at the moment, I am wondering when we'll hear more about Slaanesh. They seem to be a little forgotten about at the moment despite their release allegedly being very close. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grim Beasties Posted January 20, 2021 Share Posted January 20, 2021 Finally new bonesplitterz for AoS, excited to see what the warband will look like and if it's any indication of what else we could see for them in future. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love Slaanesh too much to drop mortals, but the witch hunters won't be going anywhere any time soon, so I'll just do a second project if and when they're released.

shinros Posted January 20, 2021 Share Posted January 20, 2021 So, what do all of you think the "new thing" for vampires will be? Because I doubt it will just be the vampires we all know and love, so what do you think of the possibility of werewolves? Considering the poster and the rumour engine? This was mentioned on the last few pages. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll be happy if Vampire Coast is a playable army in TOW in five years, but given its popularity with Total War, it wouldn't have belonged to AOS .... .... Then watch the Warhammer Quest / Board game take place in a sunken pirate ship AoS have the Wraithfleet too. And let's be honest, giant bats with zombies full of bombs, vampires riding giant zombie crabs and ship-colossus thing with a gatling gun instead of an arm seems to fit perfectly for AoS. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, the Wraithfleet would have been more of a Nighhaunt-pirate theme, right ? And it was more like a one-page reference in 2017, never referenced in AOS2. But I agree with your description of wackyness, alas as of now it is wayyyy to much linked to the existing WFB franchise (Vampire Coast in 6th and in Total War, Dreadfleet in 8th) to fit as an identical, whole faction in AOS. That's my problem with it (in AOS, not per se). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BaylorCorvette Posted January 20, 2021 Share Posted January 20, 2021 My dream vampire faction would be Vampire foot soldiers, Vampire archers, new Blood Knights, Gargoyle type of flying beast, keep the Vampire Lord on Zombie Dragon but update the warscroll a little bit and give it mount traits, update the Coven Throne's warscroll and then some other really cool center piece model. I think foot soldiers / archers like those from Underworld: Rise of Lycans would be nice 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We already know that the leader is a vampir (Varkos Varaktyr) and the troops were just a GA:Death. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, but precisely : with Ghost ships and normal Death troops on top, so nothing really similar to the very defined identity of the Vampire Coast in WFB. That's why it couldn't come like this to AOS. 5 minutes ago, novakai said: new BR fiction is out is about Skargrott and his gitz gTaKcfJQAAiilFPY.pdf (warhammer-community.com) Thank you !
