Veterannoob Posted December 26, 2016 Share Posted December 26, 2016 At least 40K stated they aren't blowing up the universe so that's exciting times for both flagship games 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dez Posted December 26, 2016 Share Posted December 26, 2016 Do you think they are brave enough to make Duardin a crossover release? Let's break the Squat Clock! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rogue Explorator Posted December 26, 2016 Share Posted December 26, 2016 2 hours ago, Ollie Grimwood said: When Rob and Eddie were dicussimg the Tzeentch release they definitely talked about how the Narrative had moved on from the Realm Gate wars and that the Seeds of Hope cities from the Seasonof War were established cities now. Cities that Tzeentch had formed cults in an Enemy within fashion. Sound to me like the Mortal Realms will be getting some civilisation. Oh and no squats they were pants the first time round ? One really has to wonder about the timescale AoS moves at. From some of the developements, especially the establishment of major cities and their impressive descriptions, it must be at the very least over a decade from the start of the Realmgate Wars to the end of Seasons of War, if not much longer. It would be nice to get a rough accounting of the time past, it might have well been a mortal lifespan in the realms since the release of AoS. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be nice to get a rough accounting of the time past, it might have well been a mortal lifespan in the realms since the release of AoS. Interesting point. The thing is that so far, we have mostly seen releases of immortal/near-immortal/deathless species. Stormcast "live" until "killed" and then are presently "born" again. Ghouls probably live and die on a mortal timeline, but everything else in that army is long-lived thanks to vampire blood or is a vampire. Fyreslayers are Dwarves Duardin and have very lengthy lifespans. Sylvaneth are immortal tree spirits. I Orks Orruks live until killed. Really, we haven't seen any releases that include creatures who live and die on a normal human timescale. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carnelian Posted December 26, 2016 Share Posted December 26, 2016 To confuddle mattees, time can move at different speeds in different (parts of the) realms. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like a plot device to get the most interesting events and/or fights happening and to fast forward past the "boring" stuff (like civic development and other not war). I expect a "gap" between all major battles or campaigns, that will be long enough to make the setup for the next thing sound plausible (or what passes for that in Warhammer fluff, I think GW could do with at east one less zero on all their stated time spans).

WSDdeloach Posted December 27, 2016 Share Posted December 27, 2016 Duardin are coming after this Tzeentch release 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buffalozap Posted December 27, 2016 Share Posted December 27, 2016 1 hour ago, WSDdeloach said: Duardin are coming after this Tzeentch release this looks like baseless wishful thinking. Anything to back this up? The blood bowl dwarf model shoulder pad teaser pic doesn't seem to point to a dwarf release. The pic from the tzeentch book (?) where dwarf iron breakers and gyro copters are depicted being killed doesn't seem to confirm anything either. I could be wrong but I don't think there is anything solid that actually would lead a person to take seriously steam punk dwarves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dez Posted December 27, 2016 Share Posted December 27, 2016 Well he said he has seen the models earlier. It's been talked/rumored about since before the end of WFB. It's also a rumor thread, not a fact thread 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WSDdeloach Posted December 27, 2016 Share Posted December 27, 2016 Honestly... I'd photo up my source. But, he's a friend and likes his job. So, I can't. But I'm very confident things are close with that faction. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ollie Grimwood Posted December 27, 2016 Share Posted December 27, 2016 A lot of the Dwarf plastics are relatively new so I wouldn't be surprised if they get repackaged fairly soon. The Dwarf warrior set might not make it though they're venerable even by Dwarf standards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What I saw showed armored up Duardin with rifles, a hero on a jump balloon and a zeppelin like trooper carrier. The rumor mill image from 11/16 came from this zeppelin type model 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shadowheart Posted December 27, 2016 Share Posted December 27, 2016 Its going to be an expensive start to the year methinks, Dwarfs & Tzeench, 2 armies I've been playing a fair bit recently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Malakithe Posted December 28, 2016 Share Posted December 28, 2016 Man oh man...I will jumping head first into Tzeench or Steamhead. Depends on how close they are to eachother. If pics get released for the Steamhead that might help my decision Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
