novakai Posted November 8, 2021 Share Posted November 8, 2021 (edited) The last article was for kill Team and they tease the new Darkstrider model at the end there for 40K so technically it is a model reveal for a main game system.

Neverchosen Posted November 8, 2021 Share Posted November 8, 2021 Honestly, no matter how much people gripe about specialist games I think that one of my favourite aspects of modern GW is the emphasis on making these models playable in their flagship games. Am I shilling, no... Am I biased because I want to make a cat army, Maybe! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nighthaunt Noob Posted November 8, 2021 Share Posted November 8, 2021 4 hours ago, edmc78 said: The boxed / specialist games product pipe seems to be a bit quicker than 40K and AOS. I assume this is as much around product development in terms of points, rules and balance in the big multi-tied games as it is actual model design and tooling. Or perhaps the specialist stuff has all been sitting in warehouses ready to go because 40k and AOS gets priority for schedule, and these things have been kicked back to keep the big systems on track as much as possible. Warcry, for example, went almost a full year without any releases, so I wouldn't be surprised if the initial plan was to release Red Harvest much sooner. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I'm not suprised in the slightest. But then again I'm one of the 'bad' TGA members anyway, with liking Aelves and not thirsting for any tidbit on Chaos Dwarves.. 😅 But I'm happy for anyone who gets something out of this. 😊 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I made the Spell Cards on the Chaos Dwarf forum that practically everyone was using for the Tamurkhan Chaos Dwarfs. I think with the direction that Games Workshop is moving Slaves to Darkness (via Warcry) means that worshiping a god beyond the traditional pantheon would not preclude them from the army. I do think it means they likely will not have access to Marks. Chaos Undivided incorporates different forms of God Worship not exclusively the Four Powers. Namely it has been established that the Warcry Warbands are not certain of the nature, or names of the Chaos Gods and may worship their own version of the Gods. Archaon and Be'Lakor both have cults dedicated to their worship. So in other words, I do not consider the worship of Hashut, Morghur, Malal or any other named or unnamed god a way to preclude inclusion in Slaves to Darkness. If anything I think it has more to do with following Archaon's ongoing wild ride so I can imagine him contracting the worshipers of Hashut into his service. This is why I can also imagine BoC entering the S2D soup... however, I feel both Chaos Dwarves and BoC would be too much likely leading to a larger number of Wascrolls than Cities of Sigmar or SCE. Edited November 9, 2021 by Neverchosen Had a long and silly addendum about the chaos gods and my army creating a false Cosmology based on their worship. I thought it was best to remain focused on rumours. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do not consider this canon lore but rather unreliable theological understandings within my Chaos Forces. In my mind it is a pantheon designed by Be'Lakor to place himself as an equal of the Gods but also to help place mortal agents that worship him into Archaon's legions. Archaon will not be seen as a God but an Avatar and nexus of the Gods. I am open to changing some of these out or rearranging the position of the Gods but I will keep the opposing gods in opposite cardinal directions. I am thinking that Morghur will be a separate primordial force treated as an unknowable god outside of the Pantheon an embodiment of Chaos. I will note this is a very background part of my army's lore, but it helps me develop background for my characters having more varied beliefs creating rivalries and alternate lists based around different marks. Also feel free to steal for your own crazy chaotic cosmology! I also know that having a 'clean cosmology' is not very Chaotic but I really like the idea of Chaos being a contradiction with Mortal Followers attempting and failing to make sense of the dreams of demons. The most accurate thing here is Slaanesh, whom we all know prefers bottom. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd agree with that. I'm seeing slaves becoming a faction where the chaos gods might as well the rumbling volcano in the distance that just spews it's displeasure once in a while. they aren't there to serve the gods and their whims per se, rather that chaos is just a factor in their lives, no different to rain, fire and water giving or destroying, and those that do mark are merely identifying with the power that serves them best at a given point. Novels like Wulfric, and some of the warcry literature illustrates this very well, as does Red Feast as it happens. The discussions on the marauder tribes in Liber Chaotica is amazing at explaining this. I really hope we get a reprint of it. Mortals who serve chaos because fo the lands they inhabit and the lives they lead, so are born into it by default rather than chase service to it, and to them why would not the city dwellers of the civilised lands not appear weak, and in Arky we see a figurehead that reflects the ultimate exaltation of their way of life and belief, after all, to the barbarians of the wastes Archaon has made gods kneel before him as he has no master but all want his favour. And I think this is where GW wants the distinction to come vs the god aligned armies who are all about their patron god body and soul, and who in turn shape their followers better to reflect their own image. 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
