Jamopower Posted January 13, 2018 Share Posted January 13, 2018 (edited) Well some hellenic chaos Warriors with sleek armour, along the lines of the characters and hellstriders would certainly fit the bill and would sort of be required to tie in teh hellstriders to the overall Theme. Also some robed cultists would fit the bill. Though I don't believe we'll see Slaanesh until next year.

The only reason I can think of the allegiance being in this book so soon after GHB (especially with Nighthaunt and FEC not being included), is that is has received some sort of change. Yes, and by change, I hope we mean new models With this strange inclusion in the LoN book, there is another two hints this could happen : 1. On the WHTV about Malign Portents, Phil Kelly said to look at the Shyish Innerland Marshes map for new release hints. The only location with a faction described is the Necros Island, where a vampire army has defeated the Khorne invaders. 2. In the last Malign portents video, the female voice could belong to Neferata, and the "my children" part could refer to the vampire from her bloodline (she is the first vampire of the realms with Mannfred). Also, Vampire are sometimes called "children of the night". But then, with the new rumor about Aelves, and the probability the voice in the video belong to Morathi, we really can't say....

I mostly want to be Morathi because it NOT being neferata doesn't really decrease the chances of getting a death release but it being Morathi pretty much guarantees shadow aelves Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamopower Posted January 13, 2018 Share Posted January 13, 2018 New models for soulblight would not be too farfetched as they are either ancient or a very expensive finecast kit. There would also be a lot of opportunities for new units in the Theme. I'm particularly wishing for a Foot unit of Vampire thralls (as I have a lot of semi-useless Foot vampires), but not holding my breath for that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, everyone's talking Morathi and Aelves, but I think vampires makes a heck of a lot more sense. I know there is an Aelf rumor from a source that's been reliable in the past, but given the broader context of Malign Portents and new Soulblight rules in the LoN battletome, I would be willing to put my money on vampires getting an update.

CJPT Posted January 13, 2018 Share Posted January 13, 2018 Thought it might be worth pointing out that Neferata has featured pretty heavily in the recent books, as have her 'daughters' - elite vampire warrior women. That could easily be one of the new additions for Death, and it'd fit with the video. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't mind a plastic set for an female vampire unit on foot, throw in a plastic Blood Dragon kit, a plastic vampire character or 2 and a new zombie kit and a possible Death release would be for me a succes.

SirPergrin Posted January 13, 2018 Share Posted January 13, 2018 Just saw the email from GW with the new pre-orders (next wave of Nurgle), and I noticed the new Malign Portents Video called "The Visitor". I think the female Voice it's Morathi, and the description underneath point towards Dark Elves. "From the shadows, a new foe emerges. An ancient nemesis is returning to the world of warhammer, and the mystery of the Malign Portents deepens. Watch the epilogue and prepare for the reign of shadow..." 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just bought one and it says Deathlords on the box. So it might be because of that. Add Legions of Nagash or something like that instead.

skool Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 (edited) So I was thinking about the Legion of shadows "typo" from the Legions of Nagash announcement, and this new email that whent out talking about an an ancient nemesis. Now what if Legion of Night is the soul blight rules with our boy Manny And Legion of Shadows is Vlad reborn with a new on foot model. So new Grand Alliance death, Legion of Shadows, Legion of Night, Legion of Sacrament, Legion of Blood would be the 6 Allegiances. It would make sense that Nagash would want another General more suited for war. Or someone actually made a typo.

Ar-Pharazôn Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 Quick lore question. Didn't Nagash himself state that Vlad was the greatest vampire or at least the best Carstein? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what nagash thought during whfb, Vlad himself and Arkhan disagree with that fact during the end times. Both Arkhan and Vlad agree manny is the best von carstein. Vlad is dead and gone the only other Mortarch that has been hinted so far in AOS is Krell. Even then in the stream Phil Kelly states mannfred is trying to rebuild something similar to sylvania, named carsetinia.(not sure how it's spelt) Edited January 14, 2018 by shinros 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
