Which is what I've though before, but this shores up my thoughts on the matter. BUT! It states in french 'Le Generals Handbook présente des nouveaux styles de jeux..." Which means, "The Generals Handbook present the new wayS/styles of playing..." which would hint at more than just points. That said, I don't think the image looks very official. The weird white backlighting, the image that the book is superimposed upon is not very flattering etc etc. Doesn't really look like the right design that GW has been using lately. EDIT: Ah, just saw all the posts after the one I was answering as well as the one linking to an english version to the same image. The whole picture looks very official, and text says what I just listed, just ignore my post. I'll creep back into the shadows in shame.....

Jamopower Posted June 26, 2017 Share Posted June 26, 2017 https://www.warhammer-community.com/2017/06/26/generals-handbook-2017-june26gw-homepage-post-3/ Quote Perhaps most excitingly of all are the new Allegiance Abilities. These are much expanded from those four Grand Alliance army-traits from the previous General’s Handbook. The new book will cover Allegiance Abilities for the likes of Fyreslayers, seraphon, Slaaneshi hosts, Nighthaunts and over a dozen others. !!!! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Locien83 Posted June 28, 2017 Share Posted June 28, 2017 (edited) Lots of items are no longer available on the GW site, do you think this is just reboxing or is there more to it than that?

Captain Marius Posted June 28, 2017 Share Posted June 28, 2017 Hopefully its a big reboxing project for the factions getting allegiance abilities in the new GHB, plus Nurgle who should be in for a book after the 40k Death Guard and daemon releases.

Sete Posted June 28, 2017 Share Posted June 28, 2017 Sigmar maybe? I think another SC hero besides him would just be a bit too much. But we have Nagash, and Everqueen and Archeon. Sigmar needs to take to the field. With a Big Ass Sword. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(grots, dispossesd, hexwraiths, graveguard, slaanesh, plaguebearers) Some make sense that it is a reboxing. Such as ironbreakers. They were still on squares. But for the Slaanesh daemons... they have been on rounds since they launched AoS. A bit weird. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikester1487 Posted June 28, 2017 Share Posted June 28, 2017 Unit champions for Dracoths have that symbol on their armor barding as well though that doesn't look wide enough. Would be be a mount or person? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinncinnatus Posted June 28, 2017 Share Posted June 28, 2017 That is virtually the exact same sculpt that is used on Vandus Hammerhand's dracoth. https://www.games-workshop.com/en-US/Stormcast-Eternals-Vandus-Hammerhand If this isn't something to do with Stormcast then this is just a copy and paste from that model onto another faction. If it is Stormcast, then this is just a copy and paste from that model onto another Stormcast... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aeryenn Posted June 28, 2017 Share Posted June 28, 2017 If it is another stormcast release in place of much anticipated aelves, sc become my hated faction and i would be let down for the first time by GW. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Requizen Posted June 28, 2017 Share Posted June 28, 2017 Though the Anvil there may mean something else. Dwarves are pretty close allies of the Stormcast, they might share some Heraldry or some sort of mixed icon? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the bloodletters got repacked to have only 25mm rounds and then repacked again to have 32mm rounds which seem to be what they are using for all the lesser demons. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
