Captain Marius Posted June 19, 2017 Share Posted June 19, 2017 Hmm does the PtG book suggest these rules wont be in the GHB anymore... i'm starting to think maybe itll turn into a matched play only resource? Similarly this could suggest theyre done with putting PtG in the battletomes - what id give to have those 10 pages in Blades of Khorne given over to more fluff! Ill be waiting for reviews on this, as I felt a bit burned by the Skirmish release, not least for seeing it all in the WD released 4 days ago when we'd already tried it, broken it and moved on two weeks prior! On a more positive note i do appreciate they keep trying these new things! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bsharitt Posted June 19, 2017 Share Posted June 19, 2017 If/when new Nurgle stuff comes out, I wonder if they'll combine the Daemons of Nurgle with the Rotbringers into a new book similar to Blades of Khorne. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malin Posted June 19, 2017 Share Posted June 19, 2017 This pattern is too strong to not be followed. Think it will be the same for Slaanesh whenever they will find him/her. So Rotters of Nurgle and Pleasurers of Slaanesh where are you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The rule that's causing the issue is the one below but, as it's on Khul's warscroll, it surely wouldn't apply if you didn't take him in your army. The beauty of AoS is that you don't need books and rules from all over the place. If someone has the Bloodbound book but hasn't downloaded the Khul scroll they wouldn't know about this bolt-on rule. GW setting a precedent of scrolls which force you to play other scrolls in different ways would get very messy indeed. Granted, it's not 100% clear, however. If you'd like to continue the discussion further, could someone please open a thread in the chaos section of the forum. Thanks. I don't know. Summoning spells exist even if you don't have the scrolls they appear in in your army. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arguably if you have Korghos in the Goretide couldn't you get Aqshy's Bane twice and do two pile in and attacks in your hero phase? I mean, Korghos is still a/the "mighty lord of khorne" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
someone2040 Posted June 20, 2017 Share Posted June 20, 2017 What has me most excited about Path to Glory is mentioning Brayherd Gors as being part of "Beasts of Chaos'. This to me, indicates a re-merger of stuff like Brayherds, Warherds and Monsters of Chaos in future. Probably not merged into a single faction with all the good synergies, but makes sense with the move to combined tomes for linked factions. It makes me interested what other factions they might combine into common groupings in future. The thing is, there's a huge difference between Stormcast Eternals or Khorne Bloodbound and a faction like Fyreslayers or Ironjawz or Freeguilds, just due to the sheer amount of different options Stormcast Eternals and Bloodbound have. So will they combine more related factions, or will they split say Stormcast into more themed warbands (Say Lord Aquillor, Palladors, Vanguard-Hunters, Vanguard-Raptors, Prosecutors). Could be an interesting release to shed some light on things to come. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is why I was interested to see the reboxing of the Duardin units, and still labelled 'Dispossessed' and 'Ironweld Arsenal' - the latter being a faction completely in-operable in of itself. Points toward a more intuitive army composition system in GHB2 perhaps? Certain factions able to tack on to other factions (almost like 40k detachments?) It's that, or we have another few years of useless factions that only have a place in mixed allegiance lists. I can't imagine there's an Ironweld Arsenal battletome on it's way any time soon... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elfhead Posted June 20, 2017 Share Posted June 20, 2017 Is it to be expected we'llsee a kit for poxwalkers that could also be used in AoS? The poxwalkers in the new 40k box are a little to techy, but I could see a kit that works for both systems. Plague-zombies were a thing way back in Warhammer fantasy...

Nurgly is coming fast.. 1. So far it would appear that some of those maggot things spotted in 40k art could be new beasts of Nurgle. 2. Pox walkers would provide the Nurgle version of Kairic Acolytes and Blood Reavers. 3. in The new Plague Garden by Josh Reynolds we are introduced to Nurgle Beastmen. Could that be GW telling us that Pestigors might be on their way as a Tzaangor alternative. 4. In the Blood Bowl Deathzone season 1 the Nurgle team is included so we know that they remain official and has been updated with new positions too. 5.. After releasing 40k it makes perfect sense to start on Nurgly as the alternative Tzaanuary in two short weeks. The SEVENTH month in the year 201SEVENteen. Ladies and gentlemen you may put on your tinfoil hats.. Edited June 20, 2017 by Greasygeek 14 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I completely agree with what you've said, but would say to be cautious when looking at anything in Blood Bowl as GW have confirmed that it's set in the old world and they're aiming to replicate all of the old teams for the updated version. At Fest GW said that they've probably 3 or 4 months' worth of releases for 40k during which the AoS releases will be lighter - not saying we won't get Nurgle, but not entirely sure it'll be next month (but we can keep our pus-ridden fingers crossed) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Guillermo del Toro style hybrid of organic and manufactured material.

EvDJ Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 I'm thinking the front of a vehicle, if you imagine it as the prow on the front of a ship, or a metal ram on the front of an ork vehicle maybe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mayple Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 Taking a second look at it, could it be knee/elbowpad sort of thing? With the knee/elbow bent? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sleboda Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 I am also thinking bent knee. Something crouching or going all Crane Style. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Durant Posted June 22, 2017 Share Posted June 22, 2017 It can be just one part of the model, like shoulder pad without the arm. The GW stuff is messing with us (in a good way) with the rumor engine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fungrim Posted June 22, 2017 Share Posted June 22, 2017 Tagline: 'We’re riveted by the latest rumour engine' Looks like a small bit to be honest, not so much a head/vehicle, more a shoulder pad (as suggested above). Pair of tusks bolted to a shoulder pad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
