Great interested about the deadwalker one, sadly considering what GW said is just "an idea" explored with no aos waves linked to it...(but considering soulblight already got their share it makes senses and i doubt gw will expand other undead like deadwalkers and deathrattles).

I actually think that a mad scientist necromancer and his creature are perfect for a one-off. Feels like exactly the kind of concept where you'd just have one guy like that running around, not a whole army.

I agree it seems like a great one off unit with ties to a particular literary character, whose name escapes me at the moment:
 

Also I was looking into some Underworlds info and just learned Blade Born has been released? I cannot find it listed at any stores in the Chaos Wastes aka Canada... as a Slaves to Darkness player and Warcry fan I was really interested in this release

You're right....still deadwalker as a faction could still get expanded if we go by the lore of their "kingdoms" and nobility(flesh colossi and other undead creation).

Honestly if GW wanted they could easily double or triple the size of SBGL. Vampire Infantry, Vampire Riding a mount somewhere between a Zombie Dragon and Horse. Skeleton Archers, Skeletons of a larger creature, Flesh golems, other creatures / animals in zombie form, etc. So many possibilities.

I really like your idea, but I feel the names need to be more unique. I'm just making these up as I write, I'm just WIP brainstorming, so bear with me. Humm...

Flesh golems...maybe call them...Ushabti? Larger creature...maybe a Tomb Scorpion? A Warsphinx? And a serpentine undead...I know! Sepulchral Stalker! And maybe a giant bone catapult carrying the name of 'Screaming Skull Catapult', so cool!

Don't worry, checked GW's webpage, they aren't using these names for anything currently.

Are the Warcry rules/fighter cards online anywhere yet?

Also, any indication that we'll get Warcry rules for other Underworlds warbands? That would be... pretty awesome and fun, hopefully GW follows through here, as it would in theory drive demand for models for both games but... 🤷‍♂️

Nice! Sounds like fun releases ahead!

The preorders are up and Skaeths Wild Hunt and other war bands are up apparently.. 

Technically the Kurnothi get a release!

for kruleboyz and thunderstrike yes, those are up on warcom!

as for WHU in Warcry, there was a sliver of a rumor. it'd be cool to have them as unique units in Warcry too though I hope it doesn't come at the cost of other Warcry specific warbands

If this is true I might just have to buy every warband this year...good thing I play Underworlds too!

Also a Frankenstein-esque zombie would make perfect sense as the nature of underworlds warbands is that there always needs to be a "bruiser" in more of a "horde" warband.

Loving the new Profile Picture mate 😉

Thank you, it is important to remind folks about the important things in this hobby... namely Pirate Ogors!

It will one day return to chaos, maybe I will split the difference and use a Shaggoth profile pic!

Quick question reguarding FAQs. I don't exactly follow Stormcast and Orks that closely, but are there any major issue in their books that need clarification?

The big thing is Translocate not having the wording preventing you from moving after teleporting. I mean there's stuff like dragons being stupidly undercosted but that's not something they're going to fix in an initial FAQ anyway.

The Marshcralla Sloggoth is currently missing the Kruleboyz keyword which is something we expect to be fixed or clarified as intended.
