KingBrodd Posted August 1, 2021 Share Posted August 1, 2021 1 hour ago, Snorri Nelriksson said: Considering we are getting 2 medium to big releases(orruks and stormcasts) i'd say that the chaos tome will be one with not too much models....so Maggotkin or Khorne. Both could just get a pair of units and hero and be still fine (Khorne more so), Furnace Kings would need a whole new army so considering the 40k BT and Orks timeframe i'd say it will be too much crowded. Still they both lack Beastmen so i'd love some canine faced Khorngors or classic pestigors,paving the way to the "1st big wave" of BoC made in Aos. The real question is....what will get Death after that considering that is the only GA left for the beginning of 3rd edition? Big wave for FeC?(they need badly new units and some new kits for things that have not a proper kit but are just makeshift from different ones) Or just Nighthaunt battletome?@NosThat rumor got both wrong the GK vs TS box and the lack of Krule cavalry, the correct rumor was another though. Death will either be FEC or Nighthaunt and my monies on FEC. There are a few Rumour Engines that scream FEC to me and will probably be a new Hero model such as Ushoran the Carrion King. That could be the hero in a new Duel Box with another Faction such as the Maggotkin. 15 minutes ago, Chikout said: As expected is Grey Knights and Thousand Sons next week with no preview. https://www.warhammer-community.com/2021/08/01/sunday-preview-thousand-sons-and-grey-knights-galore/ Hoping for a little something on Monday. Damnit!! Fingers crossed for next week then I suppose. 6 minutes ago, novakai said: it should put to bed the rumor that Battleboxes where going to have all refresh models on for one side of the forces i didn't think GW where all of a sudden changing from the usual each side gets one new model and everything else is old kits format for these boxes also i didn't really believe that Bullgors of all thing needed a new plastic model when they are plastic to begin with. Bullgors are probably the least in need of an update, I just know I personally dont like them too much and prefer the older metal Minotaurs. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am slightly tempted to expand into a monogod faction when I am done my Ogors and SCE -- but only after. My cousin plays death and he is really looking to expand into FEC but again only when he is done his Soulblight. This would probably press both our hands as we don't have terrible impulse control but are both terrible at peer pressuring each other with this hobby. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aesthetic aside, not really compare to other stuff, the are a functioning modern plastic kit and i am not seeing why GW would needs to update them over other stuff. they just need a Plastic Doombull to replace the resin one 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do really want new Bullgors as they are my least favourite plastics in the BoC line but they are not the worst offenders in plastic. If any plastic kit needs an update it is Night Runners: https://www.games-workshop.com/en-CA/Skaven-Night-Runners But overall my top hopes for updates for Beasts are plastic Centigors and the Shaggoth. I also feel like we might see the Jabberslythe, Cockatrice and Razorgor get retired in favour of some new chaotic monsters*. I think they will do it in a way that gives old fans the ability to use their resin kits but maybe giving them new identities and updated sculpts in plastic. *Also I am still confused as to how the Chimera fits into the faction now. I feel like it is maybe going to become more of a general pick for Chaos factions with ties to Warcry.

Even if the rumour isn't true, don't forget Malarion was in the Core book for AoS launch and still hasn't got an army and it took Lumineth until last year to appear. So long time lags for armies and races hinted or outright said in the lore is a given thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PrimeElectrid Posted August 1, 2021 Share Posted August 1, 2021 (edited) Well, my optimism was misplaced. Back to my cynical guess that preorders start last week in August so that GW can still claim “available to order in August!” while actually releasing in September.

Just imagine a Mega Gargant sized Dragon Ogor? Hell I may even pick one up for conversions it would be monumental. I'd truly love for BOC to be updated, alongside Skaven and Seraphon they're the armies in most need of updates.* *And Mawtribes. 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KriticalKhan Posted August 1, 2021 Share Posted August 1, 2021 I don't know how many more times we're going to have to see that 4chan rumor debunked for people to stop bringing it up. Half of what it's said has been wrong, and that's for the immediate releases. The only stuff left to it are army releases multiple years out that anyone could guess. Grimdark Live never substantiated it, nor did they say it came from a source they trusted. They were only repeated what was being said by others. It has absolutely no merit worth discussing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sadly most forums and other warhammer community sites are full of this. More common than anyone cares to admit. We should all be patient & inclusive.
