Nah, nobody would do that. It's more the race itself that's disappointing, since unless all of them are individually very varied that much will change between them. Like I said, I'm sure the models will still be good, I'd just have preferred something that wasn't Half-Orc/Half-Goblin. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like I said, I'm sure the models will still be good, I'd just have preferred something that wasn't Half-Orc/Half-Goblin. The main rumor was "taller than goblins and shorter than orcs". Half orc/Half goblin is just exactly what I had in mind. 2 minutes ago, Whitefang said: Skinny?

Shearl Posted May 22, 2021 Share Posted May 22, 2021 I'm pretty happy with the short glimpse of our new green friends that we received today. As a staunch follower of our seer @Whitefang I've been expecting something similar to this. Just like the rumors said we're getting greenskins between an orc and a gobbo, with crude spikey gear, and look similar to Tolkien orcs. I feel kinda bad for my fellow Fimir lovers who were convinced we'd be getting some attention, or those who convinced themselves it was skaven or beastmen. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OH SNAP YOU'RE RIGHT I DIDN'T NOTICE THAT that does make me bit more interested in this faction as i'm not a fan of steppe hobgoblins ngl, but i still don't know about that headdress 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoseman Posted May 22, 2021 Share Posted May 22, 2021 Ok. Maybe they are skinny, but we could know that... I'm curious about the army. If this is something like skaven or kharadron with a lot of artifacts and crazy engines like the doomwheel, gunhauler, the old boltthrowers or goblin catapults, guns and pistols.. it would be a different and very cool army. We need crazy armored goblinorks!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love Pathfinder Goblins' lore, but I reject their stupid oval, almost noseless heads. I hope that if there are goblins they have the same nose as their dank brothers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I am on the same page with you here, it looks like a lot of time and love went into this project but I will probably now watch a single one. I doubt even something tailored to my specific hobby or lore interests would change that, but still a neat idea. I also do not really think that the style of animation in any of these projects really match my personal tastes, even though some are pretty nice. Still I was really happy to see AOS getting some love, even if it was a rather minor visual presence within the preview. In summation, I am happy about the project and for the fans but I am not likely to follow it directly. This is coming from a person who studied animation and the industry for years.

Acrozatarim Posted May 22, 2021 Share Posted May 22, 2021 If they're going in with Warclans, as suggested, then I suspect they're all gonna fall under the Orruk header. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think "a race between an Orc and Goblin" were exactly being clamoured for, at least outside of a Chaos Dwarf army anyway. I'm sure the models will look good, but if that's what we're getting... ehh, I'd have preferred Flmir. 23 minutes ago, Clan's Cynic said: It's more the race itself that's disappointing, since unless all of them are individually very varied that much will change between them. Like I said, I'm sure the models will still be good, I'd just have preferred something that wasn't Half-Orc/Half-Goblin. These seem to be our "hobgoblins". They're orruks, goblins have big ears and pointed noses, old hobgoblins had big bulbous noses and big "elf" ears, orruks have smushed up noses and small "elf" ears. Both of these guys have orruk faces, they're just leaner than current aos orruks, which isn't that surprising considering how jacked ironjawz and bonesplitterz are. I kind of guessed our leaker wasn't a greenskin connoiseur when they said hobgoblins since the faces/heads are so distinct.

novakai Posted May 22, 2021 Share Posted May 22, 2021 It look distinctly different from both variant of Greenskinz honestly taller to be grots but too skinny and short to be proper Orruks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snorri Nelriksson Posted May 22, 2021 Share Posted May 22, 2021 (edited) I'd say i'm not much fan of the nose though. Seems strange,not enough orky but completely different from grots,too "flat". Still it does remind me those orcs of the 5th edition(see pic) in plastic that had a similar face, so i think they're not the hobgoblins. Perhaps "lesser orruks" and not "big goblins" like the hobgoblins? Edited May 22, 2021 by Snorri Nelriksson 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
