HorticulusTGA Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 6 hours ago, BrownDog said: Hey all, let's temper expectations a little. For all we know the preview will be further Gravelord models and another Broken Realms book. I've seen angry disappointment too many times on the forum during previews. Well, yeah. I have to say that IF we "only" get to see the end of the Soulblight range (aka Demi Drake Vampire Lady and Dire Wolves) and Kragnos, I'll be pretty disappointed. Also if we get news about years-ahead TOW and nothing for AOS 3.... Getting Idoneth for WHU is also a probable option, but not much to add to that "AOS" sum.. (also if we don't get any news for WHQuest or Wacry....). BUT we are in May, at big event Warhammer Quest, with tons of rumors and leaks and a AOSified Ghal Maraz collectible coin, so I still have hope ! If it isn't shown Monday, it will be Saturday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neverchosen Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 (edited) "All of these characters have a part to play in the final chapter of the Broken Realms saga, and given the intensity of the first three books, this one’s going to be huge." Now I am shifting from confident about 3.0 being revealed next week to pretty damn certain. Also who would win: some floaty Gods and a big ol' centaur man, or a father and daughter duo just making their way in the realms?

Maogrim Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 Okay, now I don't know if anyone feels me, but ... what if there is no Malerion faction, and there won't be one? Up until now we didn't really get a glimpse of Shadow Aelves except maybe Khainite Shadowstalkers. Morathi and her Melusai use the Lore of Shadows. The shadowy, winged agent who freed Van Brecht turned out to be one of Be'lakor's agents. We know that Malerion wasn't too fond of his mother in the beginning, but he didn't excactly stop her though he must have been aware. What if Malerion came too admire her cunning, proactive ways once again, as he did in the World that Was? There will be a Malerion model, but I think he might come as part of a Broken Realms volume, and then be attached to Daughters of Khaine, maybe even renaming the faction to Umbraneth Shadowkin or something like that. Similar to what they did with Be'lakor in StD. He might even bring one or two units, but I don't know if there's enough for a whole new faction, considering that Order is already quite overblown.

And I'm less confident, if they spend whole monday on Kragnos and saturday on vamps... Please please let me be wrong and saturday be 3.0 day. I'm so done with this edition already. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jagged Red Lines Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 I'm very sceptical that Saturday is 3.0. Otherwise it would say AoS on the calendar for Saturday too. Think its probably something else - Epic 30k or maybe Old World. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure, but it's also the final day, and generally they've always saved what they consider best or 'biggest' for last when announcing these things 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they said AoS on Saturday which is both the weekend and the last day it would feel like something big was going to be reveal for AoS at this point. leaving a mystery mark at least keeps some mystique to the reveal 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Krungharr Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 Didn't realize that the Stormcast had been parrtially cut off from Azyr. That's pretty huge, and reminds me of the big giant warp storm in 40k splitting the Imperium. All that led to 8th edition in 40k. Yep, does seem like version 3.0 is coming soon. Really wish Morghur would start mutating everything already! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wayniac Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 (edited) It's interesting that this is going to be the final broken realms because that would mean several factions are not getting anything before 3.0. They did say it would affect every army but apparently it seems like half the factions are being ignored Edited May 1, 2021 by wayniac Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gravelord are a new army for the most part and LoN is probably going out the door so they are probably excluded from BR as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Considering what has happened so far, Id say every faction has been affected from a narrative point so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there a growing possible he's BoC after all? Destruction appears to be getting a new starter set, so maybe they don't need a new centerpiece / god character now - I would assume more might be on the way for them in the months ahead if they're in the starter as we expected. It really only leaves Skaven, Khorne, and BoC. And I hate to say it - but at least Skaven technically DID something in Belakor. BoC and Khorne have literally not been mentioned as far as I know....? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's surprising because I thought they would have at least compiled some of the White Dwarf bonus rules in a book (like the Troggherd stuff). From the line-up we see for Kragnos it's too crowded with all-star demigods to fit Gordrakk and friends. It's not like we are being forgotten about since there are the recent Underworlds warbands and all the fluff, but omission from the books is odd. Not even the shiny new toys like the Megagargants get stuff. I wonder if AoS 3.0 is going to get an early campaign supplement with bonus rules for Grots/Orruks/Ogors, like what everyone else got during Broken Realms. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My current assumption is that Kragnos is Beasts of Chaos. The face we see in one teaser pictures looks like a fancy Gor face. My guess is that he is some sort of god of Ur-Centaurs/Bull-Centaurs that built that ruined city he overlooks. They lost a war or something leading to Kragnos being sealed away, and he woke up to his people being snuffed out by the forces of Order. In a rage or searching for the closest thing to his children he takes command of the Beasts of Chaos. I don't think he is destruction anymore, since the Kragnos book character line-up seems very focused on "Order vs Chaos." From what we have seen of the Broken Realms so far, Destruction isn't a factor and him being destruction would compete for attention with whatever Gordrakk is doing in the background.

So Kragnos is like Heralding destruction for the new edition 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
