It is surprising how many kits from WHFB we still have around. I doubt we will get rid of all of them in this ed:

Did u already remove Bonesplitterz from Orruk Warclans?

Its quite interesting that Orruk Warclans a 100% AoS army after removal of BS. 

The other thing i noticed are most of the daemons kits are still from whfb. The rumoured update of the chaos daemons would make sense for armies that need updating.

Also noticed Order is by far the most updated Grand Alliance.

Bloodthirster too, it was the first in a series of updated greater daemons, the rest of which released in aos

The Treelord kit is also from end times right? I think that one is staying for a while too.

That checks out for order. 

New daemons would be great, I'd really love to see some new unit types for them, it's been ages since they got anything brand new outside of characters I think, it'll be interesting if they do it a god at a time(aos release) or all 4 together (40k release)

you also have the nu-greater demon design form the 9th edition codex. Would make a cool alternative build

I Feel Like Not Whole Lot Of People Know Of Or Seen This,, 54% OFF

i myself would be a sucker if they ever update the Bloodthirster the current 8th edition one doesn't do it for me unlike the others. Maybe it the posing or derpy alternative head but it doesn't hit as good as Kabanda or the original. Skarbrand is still cool tho

Good Bloodthirster proxy or too big? : r/WorldEaters40k

40Years Minis 16 Bloodthirster

Plastic exalted greater daemons like those pieces of art would be incredible

I could be Wrong, but that Art Work looks like it Represent the Dark God Themselves rather than Greater Daemons. 
 

But I agree, New Daemons, Exalted, named, ascended or With Titles and Deeds, IDC, just gimme 😂. I’d also like to see the Original ForgeWorld Greater Daemons Return, the Blood Thirster in particular is such an Iconic Warhammer Miniature.

A hearty 'yes please' to that! I'm still kicking myself that I never got around to buying the Keeper of Secrets when I could.

If we’re doing unit wishlists for bigger factions then put me down for hoping the Ruination Chamber cavalry are those large horned bull-drake things we saw in the Phoenicium art. 🐮 

image.jpeg.a0885a99a79bf5fee1b72b7dcf5b2258.jpeg

Would fit the Reclusian’s bulkier Paladin forms for heavy mounts.

Match-up with both Hallowed Knights having heavy Ghyran connections & the “shadow over Phoenicium” plotline.

And could lead to some nice lore that they’re ornery monsters that need looong times of bonding with someone to allow them to mount. Which Reclusians could’ve been doing as their monastery hobby to help get over their traumas by having a bond-beast to fill the void in their souls.

Edit: on the cavalry/monster spectrum I can see it as:

Draconiths- powerful generalist units, costly but good at anything.

Dracoths- versatile anti-hordes with their Storm breath attacks.

Palladors- fast light cavalry that can teleport

stormstrike chariot- potent line-breaker warmachine

bull-drake- plodding armored objective pushers, probably anti-monster.

The interesting thing is that the memorians and the cover star confirm that there are models in the box which weren't in the video. We're definitely getting some more heroes for each side. The big question is whether we're getting another unit for Skaven. I'm pretty confident there won't be 40 clan rats. Recent boxes have aimed for variety. It wouldn't surprise me if we see a unit of stormvermin or acolytes. The other option is a larger rat ogre unit with pack masters similar to the reclusians.

Both Dominion and Leviathan had 8 unit entry (though Dominion double dip as there were 20 hobgrot and 10 vindictors which was technically 2 squads of them so they had seven different units compare to leviathan).

Skaven probably gets the wolfrat leader, 3 foot heroes (probably a foot melee hero, a spellcaster, and a specialist hero) 20 Clan rat, Jezzails squad, and rat Ogors (and maybe another unit depending on the clanrats)

So i wondering what name character are we going to getting soon

like we have a relative idea with SG warhound rumors with Nu-Queek & New Warlock Irkit please

r/skaven - So what everyone thoughts on the Skaven rumors + leak from SG Warhound

on the Stormcast  all we got is Poster guy but that more on the speculation side whether or not he character or just a unique hero unit

I think we might get a new Hallowed Knight character possibly their own Lord Commander? 

That'd be Queek Headtaker my dude. Just hope he's as cool looking as his Total War design.

This is not me but I found this and found it absolutely stunning I wanted to share. 

I believe the artist is @bolloxs_painting. If I got that wrong then apologies.

That's some extrarodinary work. For some reason it just screams Edgar Allan Poe to me.

Interesting insight.
Would you consider chucking it on sheets and sharing so that we can do some different analyses and what not?

Yeah Im pretty sure there is only the Tyrant, Bloodpelt Hunter, Gorgers and Mawpot.

Unless we are counting Underworlds Warbands as well. 

3 Editions of AOS and Ogors have had 2 Hero models and a Terrain piece for mainline AOS.

Yes. Everything that is disappearing is already gone. That's why Stormcast or Skavens feels so small, for example. And I did it by opening the web. Stuff that is only in Vanguards or big boxes (like Darkoaths) and it is not sold separately has been put as separate items as well.
