KriticalKhan Posted July 31, 2021 Share Posted July 31, 2021 Can I be naively optimistic and hope that all the previewed stuff will be out within a 1-ish month timeframe from when the pre-orders start? How long did it take for all the post-Indomitus Necron and Space Marine stuff to drop? I NEED that giant vulture Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think there's a good chance we see it all within a month. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just hoping the video they usually post would be up early so we'd know 😛 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chikout Posted July 31, 2021 Share Posted July 31, 2021 An announcement tomorrow would mean a pre-order on August 7th. The 7th, 14th, and 21st will be the Grey Knights box, Kill Team and the battletomes but what order they will come in is anybody's guess.

PrimeElectrid Posted July 31, 2021 Share Posted July 31, 2021 (edited) For what it’s worth my money is on August 7th preorder. In the past GW have never published faction & allegiance rule previews until after something has already had the preorder announcement (not the preorder itself). This itself suggests the release is imminent. I don’t follow 40k closely but as far as I can tell we haven’t seen similar rules articles for Thousand Sons or Grey Knights yet (only the sorcerer, not faction/allegiance stuff or whatever the 40k equivalent is). On the other hand, they have been pushing Kill Team hard in the last week. They may slip this in between this weeks AoS terrain and the new battletomes the following week. That being said, Stormcast and Kruleboyz previews were before the Kill Team one, which suggests that they come first in the running order. If the AoS preorder is next weekend this also leaves one more new miniature Monday slot for SCE dragon cavalry before preorders start. Whitefang has hinted at this heavily but I don’t think we’ve had any rumours of further Kruleboyz releases. If it’s not next weekend then the week after 💯 Edited July 31, 2021 by PrimeElectrid 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Acrozatarim Posted July 31, 2021 Share Posted July 31, 2021 I suspect we'll see preorders later in the month, possibly even the last weekend of August - GW said the battletomes would be up for pre-order in the month, not that they'd be released during August, after all. And I think we're pretty likely to see more Kruleboy/Warclan releases. If nothing else, I can't believe they'd release the battletome without a set of Warclan endless spells.

Qrow Posted July 31, 2021 Share Posted July 31, 2021 They said that the new app would be available before the new battetomes, so I'm waiting for that to be announced. The tomes will probably be up for preorder the same week the app goes live 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would hope that Warclans and indeed every Faction that doesnt have some, either get a Terrain Piece or Endless Spell this Edition. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still find it so confusing how about half the available terrain seems like it is designed aesthetically for Stormcast yet they do not have any faction specific terrain. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's because all terrain is faction specific terrain for Stormcast. The other factions just don't know it yet. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nezzhil Posted July 31, 2021 Share Posted July 31, 2021 I don't expect the release date before Warhammer+ is launched, so pre-order the August 21th is the best date to me. You must remember that all the new battletomes are gonna include a code to the new App that is gonna be launched with Warhammer+ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subscriber SunStorm Posted July 31, 2021 Subscriber Share Posted July 31, 2021 Can anybody remember back to the Necron\SM releases, did everything for them arrive in 1 weekend? Or do you think they'll split the Warclans\SCE book and the kits of a couple of weekends? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could be even longer, the heavy intercessors were available as there own box only last May, a good 7 months after the codex. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now there's no ETA, it's "soon(TM)". I very much doubt they're going to hold up the release of their battletomes for the app. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Acrozatarim Posted July 31, 2021 Share Posted July 31, 2021 Good point about the Warhammer Plus timing. Even if it ends up delayed, they'll likely have scheduled the battletome release date around the planned Warhammer Plus date. So I guess we'll see preorders on the weekend of the 14th/15th (to release the battletomes just before the Warhammer Plus release) or the weekend of the 21st/22nd (so the battletomes reach peoples' hands a few days after the Plus releease).

This post feels like the super off topic thread. Or well, sometimes there is rumors or discussions about Warhammer news. Did gw say when the new AoS app will release?
