Clan's Cynic Posted May 30, 2021 Share Posted May 30, 2021 The Ossiarch Underworlds warband hasn't been out for two days and already the next one's up for pre-order in a week? I guess that all but confirms Season 5 will be in September if they're rushing them out the door. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah they really rushed this season, prob it will be tied with new starting forces in Dominion and get back on usual schedule for WU Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'll probably be shown a new road map soon, showing what's coming. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've got plenty of Stormcast already. But I would be mostly ok with this as the new armour looks so much better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HorticulusTGA Posted May 30, 2021 Share Posted May 30, 2021 (edited) Well, a 1 hour 30 min long show ? Didn't expect that ! As @Overread said, the Kruleboyz Orruks are a fantastic design mix of Oldhammer Orcs, 80's LOTR artworks and modern AOS plastic technology. Glad they take the Greenskinz slot in the wider Orruk Warclans, they fit that niche very well with their new spin. I really like the Hobgobs look. Interesting racial feature (Orange Greenskinz ??) and great armor design. Another nod at Chaos Duardin makes me think they clearly will be the new Chaos army for 3rd Edition. Remember Chaos Duardin were present in many places in AOS 2 (Core Book with artwork of their naval fortress in Shyish and lore, Warcry with two models, STD and SOB Battletomes with lore, and BL background even before their squatting by FW). The Thunderstrike Stormcast are everything I wanted. Everything. As our Hype prophet hinted, I hope we'll get more redesigns (mostly new DRAKES!!!) this summer. And as @Chikout pointed out, I'm also very glad we'll apparently see new Azyrite Scenery that are NOT Age of Myths ruins (if those aren't 3d Printed like the OBR bone fortress.....). NB : the first SCE Vindictor shown isn't in Dominion, I guess he'll come with a White Dwarf or an ETB kit (sculpted base and all that).....

KriticalKhan Posted May 30, 2021 Share Posted May 30, 2021 If we're still talking about Kragnos, looking at his sprue, a lot of his little chain and armor plates are almost completely separate from his body. It would be really, really easy to replace them with the Kruleboyz shield and armor bits (or parts from any other Destruction faction) to give him some really easy visual tie-ins with whatever faction you're running him with. I was already planning on doing that with all the spare Gutplates I have lying around and it looks like it just got a whole lot easier. I don't mind the idea of a big random monster leading Destruction armies-- they care about strength more than anything --it's just the lack of design consistency that throws me off. Honestly, I'm surprised GW didn't do something like it for his kit: just having a couple options for ogres, orcs, goblins, etc. that you can build him with and say that whatever armies he travels with adorn him with their own iconography as a way to represent how they all worship him in slightly different ways. Now the only thing I have to get over is that price-tag.... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On 5/29/2021 at 1:38 PM, RexHavoc said: I get annoyed at the rumour engine type reveals, its not really my sort of thing, but this I totally love. I know I am a little bit late to the Party but I just wanted to say thanks to all becaus to be honest I havent really played a single warhammer game in my life i just collected and rubbishly painted some miniatures of the old fantasy edition when I was a KId, but I quite never lost the Interest in the Hobby (the Grim Warhammer Setting was always my Favourite.) and I always found the Community nice because of the Creativity and the Social Aspect of the Hobby so I am happy to get such a warm Welcome and now I have even found the Perfect Faction for me to Start. Which brings me to the Point that now you can me refer to me as one of the Kruelboyz. I love these guys. Okay I have properly hyped myself up until this Preview but these new Kruelboyz have blown me out of the Window I mean: an overhaul Creepy and Grim aesthethic with a mystical clerical caster ( as Clerical an Orruk can get, I am referring to the Swampcalla Shaman and his Religious Iconographie ) and then you have also some Medieval looking fantasy aesthetic nods in form of the Helmets of the Boltboyz which also bring Crossbows to the Table of things I love. And then you have the Gnashtoof and the Mirebrute Troggoth which bring in my opinion some of the best looking beasts in the Mix ( Beasts are every Time a good Idea ) and then all the flayed Skin, the detailled grotesque Faces and the beheading which is really Grim but they also have their Mini Me Grots by their side which feels like a "bring your Kid to Work day" kind of thing which I also Absolutely Love. So to come to a Conclusion before I Ramble even more I have found my Boyz and now I just have to get this Dominion Box and some brushes + Paint to Start properly in the Age of Kruelboyz. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ManlyMuppet88 Posted May 30, 2021 Share Posted May 30, 2021 I wonder if we will get a unit of Grot's with the Kruleboyz? Non-hob ones. Kinda on the fence about it actually. On balance I think I would prefer just the odd Grot here and there in Kruleboyz and full units stay part of Gloomspite. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we will see more hobgob units whilst standard grots will continue to be used as familiar-like characters and base decorations. I wouldn't mind more troggoths to be part of the faction.

More monsters in general would be good. A bunch of swamp monsters always improves things. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silverstu Posted May 30, 2021 Share Posted May 30, 2021 Well that was interesting - love how they have pushed the designs forward for these factions- the Orruks have loads of oldschool references which I like plus a touch of The Hobbit Orcs as well. My favourite thing was the Troggoth -looks excellent and the Stormcast wizard lady with the mask looks awesome. Neither faction is my thing but it looks like a great set and really pleased to read all the enthusiasm for the new models. Very interesting with the hints of the Chaos Dwarfs - though we don't speak of our fallen cousins they would make. a nice counter balance to Grungni's return [hopefully with a new/refeshed dwarf faction]. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fallen? Fallen? they never fell. They saw hashuts embrace and look at what they’ve achieved. Not for them abandoned dwarf hold plagued by rats and goblins. if in doubt, torch it out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Krungharr Posted May 30, 2021 Share Posted May 30, 2021 Do we really think Battletome Battalions are going away? Or are we just getting those Core Battalions in addition to our tomes' options? I am fearful my Bullgors and Khorne models won't get to play together if we lose the tome battalions. My Ogors don't care as much, though losing the Goremand and Eurlbad would kinda suck.

I like Stormground and Underworlds, but an actual real-time strategy like DOW would be amazing. an AOS dungeon crawler would fit really well too, if they tied it into SOULBOUND to explain why your character(s) can respawn without being Stormcast I would be over the dang moon!!

TimeToWaste85 Posted May 30, 2021 Share Posted May 30, 2021 I mean, we have ChaosBane which is like Diablo at 50%...still fun, just not as deep. Old world though, I believe. Not AoS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nagash42 Posted May 31, 2021 Share Posted May 31, 2021 (edited) Grimdark live talked about hob-gob wolf riders coming for kruelboyz. They also talk about Chaos Dwarves coming!

If it’s true that Chaos Dwarfs will come along eventually I really hope they more like the AoS model they released and less like the Forgeworld ones. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
