I just hope the FEC get some new models. They really need to flesh-out that range some. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know if it's been covered before but this was an idea I had re flesheaters. Seeing as the fluff says how they are delusional and think they are chivalrous knights, introduce some ghoul cavalry of some sort. Then allow all bretonian models to be flesh eater courts (no conversion required). If you use bretonian models, that represents how they see themselves, if you use the ghoulish models that's how the world sees them. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you use bretonian models, that represents how they see themselves, if you use the ghoulish models that's how the world sees them. Yeah, I had this thought too. I think it would be realistic if they implemented Morathi-like dual-model units in certain places. Like, they could sell a noble regent model: an optional upgrade which is your Ghoul King when first deployed, having rules representing their enchanting presence (simulating how their enemies can't help but fall under the madness), with a mechanic for transformation after they're damaged. You'd probably have a foot version and then a pegasus monarch to represent the mounted ghoul king. I think this would make a great two-piece terrain kit. One half is the 'Royal Marquee', a regal tent outpost for a lord's hunting party with wealthy amenities. Then you have its true form: a 'Carrion Cave' where the ghouls pile up the bones of victims. The opportunities for fun mechanics there goes without saying. I hope they run with the delusion idea, it's one of AoS's better lore additions. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Overread Posted February 2, 2019 Share Posted February 2, 2019 In the past one edition of fantasy had heroes with separate mount profiles. The idea being that your hero or its mount could be a separate target and if the mount died the hero would then go on foot. I don't think it lasted long enough to generate many duel kit mounted and unmounted models (I think High Elves got some but otherwise not many others). Of course some armies made up for it by having quite a wide variety of lords on foot and then one on a mount so you could just use two models. It was a neat idea though I don't know if it lasted much beyond one edition of the rules. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m sorry I just have about 30 of them and want to know when I should begin rebasing. All we really know is that those of us who applied for the GW game designer job had to work up alligiance abilities for gutbusters as the assessment exercise. The implication was that it wasn't a faction that the design studio had done much with, but whoever got that job could well have run with whatever they came up with. So i wouldn't expect it very soob, given their usual turnaround, but could well happen on a medium timescale (whatever that may be...)

3nondatur Posted February 2, 2019 Share Posted February 2, 2019 Hi all, I am new here and this is my first post, so I hope I am posting in the right place. I have been following this thread for quite some time now and I wanted to point out something I find stunning. During the ET (did not read the books, only some summaries) Lileath sends Araloth into a pocket dimension she created for him to become the new Asuryan and start the Warhammer cycle anew. However things take a bad turn and it remains unclear what happens with this place. Well recently I discovered this blog: https://www.strengthhammer.net/2018/05/tin-foil-hat-hysh-and-haven-of-lileath.html The author argues that Lileath's hidden world might indeed have survived and became the base for Hysh. Adding to that there recently was the following conversation on FB : I do not know how to embed this in here, but the staff answered quote "Well, we haven't revealed all just yet..." The more I think about this theory the more likely it seems to me. Hope you found that bit interesting. Regards 6 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every harbringer of the malign portents was an indication of a faction update with an underworld warband. Ordinator= new stormcast with two chambers opening. Knight of Shrouds= new ghosts. Fungoid = moonclan gits. Darkoath queen = an upcoming release. I really think that will be all the new models you can expect because of the warbands. Besides no underworld warband from an existing faction has meant new models besides the warband itself. But we’ll see 😁 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But we’ll see 😁 The thing that makes it a possibility in my eyes is that, as far as I'm aware, all the models for Underworlds represent existing units in AoS, or units that will exist at least (Though this was more true for Shadespire than it is for Nightvault, where Mollog is a distinct type of Dankhold Troggoth, and the Briar Queen is a wholly unique character). But in any case it looks like the Sylvaneth warband are going to include some kind of revenant with a bow, which could certainly just be a standalone thing for Underworlds, but to me suggests the possibility of an expansion for the Sylvaneth range to match.

Elmir Posted February 3, 2019 Share Posted February 3, 2019 Does anybody have any idea when the next big event is that could have more AoS related reveals? I've not found a nice overview of 2019 yet with all the major events like nova, adepticon,... where they usually do these types of reveal seminars.

At this point it is 110% spéculation, but concerning Tzeentch, I could see demonic terrain release along the rumoured Kill team Inquisition expansion. Concerning the Malign portents follow-up, do you think à campaign book could be released along with the upcoming generic endless spells ?
