bsharitt Posted January 29, 2019 Share Posted January 29, 2019 Guys, can we stop talking about these rumors and get this thread back to idle speculation, wish listing and talking about things already announced? 1 6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For those who want rumours just to tall about something, credibility might be irrelevant. But if it about anticipating what will actually come, judging both inner credibility and source accuracy is being minimally rational. Yes, god forbid you were irrational about speculation concerning toy soldiers on the internet. 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, the classic aelf factions only need a decent battletome and maybe a few endless spells and they would sell like hot cakes. Squatting them would be a big waste of potential and money. There are many people, myself included, who are waiting to see what GW will do with the aelfs before buying them. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You talk about rumours: "Waah! 😭 This internet hearsay might not be 100% accurate!" Who gives a gobbo's behind?!? It's fun and interesting and keeps us talking, it matters not one fething jot whether the rumours are accurate or not because we're talking about plastic toys. Honestly. I will just leave this here.

Overread Posted January 29, 2019 Share Posted January 29, 2019 I tend to view the UK site as the definitive line when it comes to stock. That is if its going out of production or being repackaged en mess I'd check the GW store for the one to be showing those signs first. Overseas might just have a lack of stock because a boat hasn't landed with fresh supplies from the central production site. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes im with you,i started to play to aos two years ago and i wanted elfs,but as you i wanted wait. I started with the cheap stormcast boxes and i bougth the dragonlord because i couldnt avoid it. I really really wanted white lions,phoenyx, dragon blades etc.but the square base gives me bad bives so i only got the dragonlord. I dont need a battletome,if gw put alegiance of elfs in gh and change the kits to oval bases i gonna insta buy it. That is the reason that i bougth one year ago a full new dispossesed army,i dont mind if they are competitive or not,also havent batletome. But have new bases and alegiance so i feel "safe" buying them 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Icegoat Posted January 29, 2019 Share Posted January 29, 2019 Think about how many hydras, how many units of bleak shards are being sold daily? Monthly? Does anyone know anyone right now who is starting a brand new eldritch Council army? A darling coven army? They are very small fry. And GW have plans for the elves no doubt but the new concept do not fit the old armies at all. Like AT ALL. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Couchatron Posted January 29, 2019 Share Posted January 29, 2019 Some great rumors here! Thanks @Ndabreaker !!! Any rumors on any big human releases? Free Peoples? Devoted of Sigmar?! I would LOVE to see a human zealot army rampaging across the table in the name of Sigmar. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course Ironjawz would be one of the old tomes that need an update so possibly one of the weekly releases expect greenskinz rolled in Do you know if they're planning to update Beastclaw and unite them with Gutbusters?

Like AT ALL. well to be honest I think Eldritch council is probably an army that I think will get phased out because of what up with the plastic Swordmasters being in the spire of dawn box and all. the Archmage on dragon would probably ended up with Order Draconis if the kit survives 13 minutes ago, xking said: Maybe if they make a battletome for them, they would sell. A battletome did wonders for the beastmen, All the darling covens need is a battletome. that said I think what help BoC was the fact that they had the new Tzaangors in them, even then I doubt it was a selling like hotcake situation.

Hell, they didn't even get a Shadespire warband, which has been a solid (but not guaranteed) factor in a new/updated army. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shankelton Posted January 29, 2019 Share Posted January 29, 2019 Thanks again @Ndabreaker for all the rumors! Been an interesting read, and fun speculation! Seen a screen shot floating around as well confirming Greenskinz are history, so might not see them roll into Ironjawz, or at least only choice units. Have seen people ask about death, with no info. To be a tad more specific, has your source heard anything regarding soulblight or vampires? I suspect no, but has been a range within LoN who could use it!

bsharitt Posted January 29, 2019 Share Posted January 29, 2019 A totally combined Duardin book seems a bit far fetched. Overlords are reportedly selling well and have their own identity. Fyreslayers are seemingly not selling as well, but do have their own identity and a separate Slayer army was a long time coming(occasionally showing up to various degrees in the old world). The most likely combination would seem to be ironweld dwarfs getting a dispossesed keyword again(which in the lore I think they are dispossesed that joined the Ironweld?) . Also on the speculation train as it ties to recent rumors and news, Skaven kits are going no longer available. The clanrats on the US store and the metal warlord on the UK store. Based on the plastic troop kits GW has seen fit to keep (zombies and grots), I can't see clanrats getting a new kits, so perhaps reboxing before a book release? I could see the old warlord getting dropped in favor of the existing plastic warlord or even a wholly new kit depending how now big they do a skaven release. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going by the army grouping when AoS 2.0 came out, I think any army that had a battletome previously probably won't get merge but get a stormcast expansion treatment except for maybe Clan Pestilens and Everchosen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rollcage Posted January 29, 2019 Share Posted January 29, 2019 I don't think duardin are getting a combined book, Fyreslayers should get their own updated tome soon. Although I think the success of Legions of Nagash and Beast of Chaos as compared to newer armies like Idoneth and Daughters are changing the future of army books, so I wouldn't rule it out. I'm surprised that Spiderfang grots got thrown in the Gloomspite gitz tome and I think this was because of the Legions of Nagash success. I still think Darkoath are slaanesh's mortal followers. No other mortals have come up as yet. Rotbringers/bloodbound/Arcanites have already come as mortals of their respective gods. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deepkin Posted January 29, 2019 Share Posted January 29, 2019 The Darkoath in Warqueen worship Tzeentch. The Darkoath in Scourge of Fate are Undivided worshippers. They are the new Marauders, so will probably be able to be marked for any god I bet. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Soul wars novel had a tanned barbarian that was a Slaanesh worshiper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheer up. By passive-aggressive do you mean responding directly to that person and telling them what my issues are? If so, then yes that is what I am doing (but I don't think that is what passive-aggressive means). And I think you and I are talking past one another, because when I said discussing the rumor I meant discussing the actual rumor as in the source and validity of that rumor. I think that's a thing, you don't I suppose. Cheer up is a bit odd. I've enjoyed discussing these rumors or whatever they are with other people today.

Shankelton Posted January 30, 2019 Share Posted January 30, 2019 I'd give you another reaction @Ndabreaker, but I'm out for the day! haha Thanks for the compiled list. Real interesting that Gutbusters might be getting a few new models! Certainly more then I expected, but hype if true! Also will be great if Dispossessed rumor is spot on. Knew we wouldn't get a book for sometime, but allowing us to take artillery without wasting ally points is a great way to toss us a bone well we wait!

Wazzuli Posted January 30, 2019 Share Posted January 30, 2019 Just to stop a wildfire the WD article I posted is from an old issue like 2017ish old. Saw on another forum someone say it was in next months WD. Unless they reprint it ITS OLD lol. Gutbusters would be really awesome I'm hoping they add Man-eaters back in to them as well.
