The Rumour Thread

Hey so I wanted to post this here since it seems like nobody is talking about it and the folks in the Warcry discord have been going bananas over the fact that GW quietly announced the first step in Cross-Compatibility between Underworlds and Warcry. It hasn't been a thing in this thread but we've been speculating about it since Bladeborn got previewed way way way back in March this year. 

Basically, Bladeborn is on sale in Germany-only but will be available worldwide soon. German Bladeborn ships with Warcry matched play and narrative play rules for 6 Underworlds warbands. I have a video elaborating on my utub channel if anyone wants to pm me for the link but I don't want to post it here bc that would be crass. 

The gross speculation is that we'll get the rules for all the rest of the UW warbands in this year's Tome of Champions that comes out every January. It could totally revolutionize the game as far as budget conscious players are concerned, bc some of the Underworlds warbands go for $25 without the cards and any two Underworlds warbands that share a Grand Alliance can be combined to make a Warcry crew. 

Anyway I wanted to post it in a mainstream channel since the Warcry community has been way more hyped about this than we were about the Red Harvest trailer, and it was odd to see nobody "on the outside" talking about it.

oh wow that would be really cool! does that mean even season 1 warbands will be orderable through GW direct?

No Idea! And that's the exciting part. So far the Underworlds warbands we have Warcry rules for are Khagra's Ravagers, the Godsworn Hunt, The Eyes of the Nine, The Dread Pageant, Garrek's Reavers, and Grashrak's Despoilers.

Back due to fan demand:

I'd love it if they expanded on this concept. There were so many cool ideas introduced with Silver Tower and it's odd that they never expanded on more than the chaos bits. Spiderfang grots on foot like this would be a wonderfully weird addition to GSG, and really help to make it like more of a warclans style book with 3 more fleshed out factions.

This is awesome news, I have had my eyes on Bladeborn since it was announced as I love Warcry and I am looking to add some of the Underworlds models to my Slaves to Darkness army. I am hoping this will give me enough points to run an infantry based 2000 point army for AOS. But it also gives me the opportunity to learn the basics of Underworlds and give Hrothgorn some more playability for my Ogors. I still may opt out for budgetary reasons especially with a proper new Warcry set on the horizon...

Its Monday again which means we have another shot at a model reveal. 

40Ks Black Templars have all been shown off as has the SCE and Kruelboyz UW Warbands so today could we see either a Specialist 40K game mini or could we see yet another peak at a new Underworlds or Warcry mini?

The Black Templars haven’t all been shown off, just the launch box. I’m not sure I expect them today after just getting the launch box shown, but there is more coming for the Templars.

Could you possibly keep pictures of actual spiders out of the thread please? Some of us have pretty severe arachnophobia!

Yeah was really suprised to see that there are warcry rules in this game and ordered it immediately  (in germany) from thalia.
(They got currently some 'toy sale days' so you get the thing for ~ 38€. Including two warbands, warcry dice and a gamesystem seems like a good deal).

Will be interesting to see what 'Red harvest' will bring us, hopefully also something for AoS. I mean they mention the Varanguard directly in the teaser video, so give us thus dudes on foot!

[Perturbato]

I see Red i see KHORNE !!!! 

 

Anyway, strong feeling for Chaos Duardins are they work for the Iron Golems (sometimes they fight)

I hope u are onto something here. I just hope it isnt a single random beast spider model release like the Sphiranx and the Fomoroid. I am saying this because the trailer could be a reference to Shelob when Gollum sings a similar song. Any spider for GG would be a win though XD.

I noticed that all free Warscrolls vanished from GWs website, so not only no free Warscrolls going forward but also all old Warscrolls gone

That's a shame, one thing I liked about AoS was the free core rules and warscrolls, does the new app have free rules/warscrolls or is it paid subscription only?

We don't know yet, and GW is not giving a straight answer. I hope warscrolls will be free on the app, but I expect the worst.

At the moment nobody knows. The assumption is that it will follow the 40K model, so if you subscribe you have access to the warscrolls but will need the digital codes from the books to see the rules for an army. All old stuff is viewable. 

Please use the following link to give some feedback about the app and how you would like to see the warscrolls without subscribing. Be polite but it may work if enough people ask about it!

Oh damn. I agree though they wouldnt do back to back Previews.

I really hope it's something for Spiderfang and not something for Chaos. I wouldnt be too dissapointed at a Chaotic Spider if it's a single monster like a Fomoroid Crusher but I dont want Factions to have their identity swapped between Armies. It would be weird for example if Destruction started having a bunch of Dinosaurs in their armies and Seraphon didnt get updated.

My wallet disagrees with you. I've a complete Spiderfang army 😅

[angrycontra]

While I do want to see new spiderfang units in the future, I really, really hope this is not some spiderfang faction. I've been wanting some kind of insectoid race in warhammer since the original warhammer fantasy and if this supposed spider race is that, then I'm all for it.

U just made my day, thank u.

Seems like they removed all warscrolls from the warscroll builder too.

Welp, time to get into OnePageRules!

In all seriousness, removing the free warscrolls frustrates the heck out of me. A big part of the games I choose to play is accessibility and ease of entry for other new players, since getting new people on board is one of my favorite parts of any hobby - and that in turn ensures you'll always have someone to play with. The free warscrolls were the reason I got back into Warhammer through Age of Sigmar!

or if destruction had a beast of chaos, just a random example

@Gaz Taylor Thanks Gaz, I've submitted my feedback.

What units are left to release for Stormcast and the Orruks? Just the boltboyz for the Orruks?
