AdHocGames Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 Just now, Turgol said: That is indeed great news but weird considered the Atia rumour that Kharn and Deatwatch were on the September issue. Although if from the very beginning it is moving to a review of the past months, it does make sense: August (and no September) would see the launch of the 40k line (Deathwatch, Kharn and chaos supplement, maybe WZ: Fenris II). If it so, then I guess September would be Tzeentch and not Duardin. From how my rep described the new format, it's still possible that Kharn and Deathwatch will be out in september. WD will apparently be discussing the previous months releases. I'll also clarify that i haven't been told the exact contents, only that the first issue will come with a miniature and will have rules for existing games. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Based on the price, it is likely to be one of those large boxes like the Ghoulish Host. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dez Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 That's what I was thinking, but was hoping for more details (box contents). I had stashed some Bonesplittaz money aside for a box like this...perhaps I'll go with this instead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PraetorDragoon Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 No idea what is in it. Those boxes are allowed to include Finecast models, so they might have Sabretusks or Yethees. Mournfangs and Stonehorns are a given though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was resolved. Settra told the Chaos Gods were to stick it and went off killing a Greater Chaos Daemon to save Nagash to spite them.

I suspect what will happen is the Maligants aka nighthaunts will fold into death lords along with the mortarch's. The soul blight book will have dead walkers and death mages fold into the faction(With mannfred and neferata as characters). While Death rattle will be it's own thing(with Arkhan and krell since he is mentioned in the grand alliance death book). Of course with a few new models to go with it. Since as it stands now the death factions don't have enough stuff to be turned into it's own faction. Hell the flesh eaters got the beasts of the grave merged into them with their own special rules. It also helped that the crypt horror kit could be used in many ways also. I suspect the same will happen to the other factions since the deadwalkers are mentioned to be mainly used as foot soldiers for soul blight and death mages are too small to be their own thing. The necromancers are always the "igor's" to the vampires. Edited July 25, 2016 by shinros 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But take it with a lot of salt! Very dubious of thus. They just put it in the start collecting box. I suppose it could be an extra gorechosen model. . . . Actually writing this has pursuaded me it might be true. I am still hoping for something completely new though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bowlzee Posted July 26, 2016 Share Posted July 26, 2016 One would hope that general units like Skeletons can be given keywords like the Chaos Warriors can be given keywords of their god Allegiance. This would help greatly in giving Battleline units to more Death Factions. After all in the fluff many Undead Characters are able to summon Skeletons/Black Knights Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since as I said death as it is is too small to be turned into their own faction's. Ghouls got beasts of the grave and they are lucky the horror kit can be used in so many different ways. The other Death factions are not so lucky. Maybe heroes can choose a certain mastery like bone, spirit, flesh to make certain units battle line for them along with what's in the book.

AdHocGames Posted July 26, 2016 Share Posted July 26, 2016 (edited) Helpfully the trade letter only told me that there are 14 miniatures in the Icewind Assault box, not what those miniatures are, and the RRP of £135. White Dwarf should arrive tomorrow morning so if it's not been posted before then i'll let you know whats inside it. As for the WD miniature, i still can't say what it is outright because i'm posting under my stores name, so it limits what i can and can't say. But a previous poster is correct in what the miniature is. Edited July 26, 2016 by AdHocGames 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
