Well of Eternity Posted April 27, 2017 Share Posted April 27, 2017 Old Araloth (?) repack for sure but still - i have no information when they are planning this repack. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VonRunestorm Posted April 27, 2017 Share Posted April 27, 2017 Looks like a repack like the Skeleton Warriors got recently, I think this one was done along with some other Alt Warhammer Quest Heroes. Seems like a good few are slipping through so we know what Factions will be expanded in the future. -VonRunestorm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaleb Daark Posted April 27, 2017 Share Posted April 27, 2017 News just in on miniwars about the 40K8th Starter set, with release set to be 17th June with pre-orders up on the 3rd. Comments claim that GHB2 will not be far behind - take the dates with a pinch of salt of course until we have firm evidence. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sal4m4nd3r Posted April 28, 2017 Share Posted April 28, 2017 I don't mind paying for units in blocks.. but it bugs me that there are battalions that give incentives for taking units in multiples of ruinous powers sacred numbers.. and having to pay for models I'm not using just so I can pay for the battalion.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James McPherson Posted April 28, 2017 Share Posted April 28, 2017 I think the new 40k starter box might be death guard/nurgle vs space marines. Epidemius has been marked as sold out for a while now on the web store, and the rumour pic a while ago looked a bit nurgley. It's all pointing towards a dual AOS & 40k Nurgle month (hopefully). if it's not i'll eat my hat 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sandlemad Posted April 28, 2017 Share Posted April 28, 2017 14 hours ago, Well of Eternity said: I have not seen this before. Huh, along with the skeleton repackage. Could we perhaps be seeing a handful of round-base AoS repackages without any accompanying battletome? Maybe to tide us over during the early days of the new 40k 8th ed release.

Mortarch Posted April 28, 2017 Share Posted April 28, 2017 I'd imagine we will start seeing a few more repackages like the Skeleton and the Wanderer. They were always going to run out of existing stock eventually, and there was bound to be cases where that happened before any repackaging was planned in line with a faction refresh. So if that's the case do they keep printing the old boxes or just put them in the new packaging that's planned anyway at the existing price point. In the knowledge that they were models being kept regardless. I think we will see more of this no fanfare Reboxing. This is refresh of existing product rather than a new product like the new box of more Liberators was a new product at a new price point. I wouldn't preclude a larger skeleton horde box when the Deathrattle faction is addressed. M 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liath Posted April 28, 2017 Share Posted April 28, 2017 Dare we hope it's part of a "free peoples" or maybe even an aelf update? I'm going to assume repackage so I don't get my hopes up... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair this does bode well for Wood Aelves (Wanderers) getting their own release seperate from Sylvaneth, something that didn't look too likely for a while. It kind of felt like they'd renamed everything just for the sake of it, but perhaps they do have genuine plans to re-introduce all the Factions in their own right as time goes on 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Requizen Posted April 28, 2017 Share Posted April 28, 2017 I would expect July, putting the update at exactly one year.Same. If we're still looking at yearly updates, it would make sense to be consistent. Going forward it could be June 40k/July AoS, which seems reasonable.

It still might be the case for some(I'm pretty sure Kharadron and Fyreslayers are the future of Dwarfs in AoS), but there might be some home for Wanderers.

Turragor Posted April 28, 2017 Share Posted April 28, 2017 Even when there are no concrete plans for those models in future, if those models are easily reproduced (plastics) and selling GW may as well just repackage them when needed. I mean they can't just reproduce the product as it was - in Warhammer Fantasy Battle clothing. It needs a new box. Makes more sense than not producing new stock for a product that's actually being depleted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I imagine they won't get much, probably the Seraphon treatment//if they're lucky the Khorne/FEC treatment (new battletome, rebox etc) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jamopower Posted April 29, 2017 Share Posted April 29, 2017 As there is whole May to still cover with releases, if 40k comes in June, it could be that AoS Nurgle will come first? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fungrim Posted April 29, 2017 Share Posted April 29, 2017 Nurgle got a lot in End Times and have a fairly established Daemons range. Can't see them getting much on the new side for AoS. Think it'll be largely 40k to be honest. There's loads of other armies I can see them doing before revisiting Nurgle in the realms Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Khorne is a starterbox force though, the main bad guys for the first few years of AoS. Who had fairly few minis before, that weren't Mortals. Just figured they'd address Death and Aelves before going back to Nurgle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
