Johann Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 (edited) Easy... keys are for locking away secrets. Who has lots of secrets? ->The keeper of secrets...

Its weird, the keys themselves are kind of ambiguous, like one of them looks very fire-slayers, but the cog one is very adeptus. Not sure what to make of this, unfortunately I think it is 40k and not some sweet skeleton or Duardin, but as a Skaven player its just more bits for conversion for me. Can you post it?

I'm guessing its a prosthetic or a fantasy sort of servo-arm for Steamhead Duardin. Keys are a bit of a theme for the Fyreslayers, so...

Dez Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 Could be Necron.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hobgoblinclub Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 I'm really not sure how. I'm not even sure it's an arm any more. The keys look like they're attached to far along to be held in fingers. The 'arm' looks necron but the keys look AoS. Great puzzler! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the key rings for the sleeping sheriff who sits outside the old-timey jail cell. Have you never seen a cartoon?! The prisoner gets a broom and slips the key ring off the guard (which in this case might be a Mechanicum adept or undead) and breaks out of jail. DUH!!

This is a Necron arm: I don't think they're similar at all. If it's 40k, it's Mechanicum, but I really don't think it's 40k. It looks like fantasy-tech to me.

bottle Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 I think it's Mechanicum because of the cog-key. My friend offered a very interesting guess for the "Steamhead Duardin" leak. What if it's actually for a Blood Bowl Death Roller? 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rogue Explorator Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 If 40k, with the agents book around the corner, dare I say, Inquisition? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Veterannoob Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 Perhaps, but there are no new models with the TL and Imp Ag codex release. But in 2017 (so far away, I know! )...well... we'll see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its to dainty and delecate. Sounds stupid but i cant imagine an elf holding a set of keys like that let alone a duaradin. If its for AOS my money would be on Tzeentch. If its for 40k . . . . could still be tzeentch but part of a further crossover option. I dont think that key is a cog i think its just exotic looking key . . . . .

I also agree that most duardin stuff looks like a dwarf with a bulky aesthetic so this would be different. My only theory is that its a swiss army knife style army. Many different machines with different functions with a few dwarves as masters. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RuneBrush Posted December 1, 2016 Share Posted December 1, 2016 One thing I will say is that AoS had quite a decent run of releases at the beginning of the year until August time - when we had Seeds of Hope and they promised the results would change the game world. Since then though we've not had many brand new AoS releases we have had a lot of coverage from the community team - in fact most of the streamed events have been AoS and there are quite a few blog posts too. I'm not trying to justify it or derail the Rumour thread but it's easy to forget things that happened the beginning of the year (and one of them was the Generals Handbook!) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RuneBrush Posted December 1, 2016 Share Posted December 1, 2016 My punt on the rumour pic - something completely new. A Steamhead Duardin construct (I'm thinking the Dwemer Constructs in Skyrim) that is part of a new artillery piece or similar. I can't see it fitting into Ad Mech as it currently stands, however there have been rumours of new units coming out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dez Posted December 1, 2016 Share Posted December 1, 2016 It does look Admech (I was being hopeful before). I've built a ton of it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CyderPirate Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 Its definitely Ad-mech, the bionic arm matches their style completely. So....maybe Dark Mechanicum? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Changer Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 So I've just picked up my Tzaangors and I'm surprised that there are no instructions on how to assemble the sword and shield versions, or any of the AoS options (banner, horn, huge sword and huge axe). That says to me that there will be an AoS version of the Tzaangors box at some point, maybe without the 40k sprue. Also, due to the number of the special weapons you get per box, looks like they'll be 1 per 5 which is quite nice. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barimbino Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 @Changer Maybe Tzeentch got a hold of the instructions and burned them. I mean who doesn't want a head coming out of a leg socket. Or an arm coming out of a banner? 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barimbino Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 Guessing the AOS box will have the instructions and have the warscroll and rules to run them. Nice that they put the sprues in with the 40k box so if you want them you don't have to wait for the new release. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
polarbear Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 I wonder if there was a change of schedule behind the scenes and the AoS Tzeentch stuff wasn't ready to go yet in its entirety, so they moved the 40k Tzeentch up, hence the big AoS release gap and strange reappearance of Tzaangors. Who knows though. I saw on another forum that the battleforces are going to be limited? Ugh! Tough decisions ahead... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
