The Jabber Tzeentch Posted July 27, 2016 Author Share Posted July 27, 2016 I have been hearing September. Yep I have September also, but I would certainly expect before Christmas. Sometimes the rumours for the release schedule get a bit mixed around. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chikout Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 (edited) I was initially dubious of the September steampunk Duardin rumour but if what adhoc says is true(and I think it is) then the 40k stuff will come in August, leaving a space in September for a big aos release. I imagine the next horus game will follow in October. That would have Tzeentch coming at the end of the year. Sad panda mentioned that this was a possible timeframe for a new Lord of change to come out. Somewhere in the midst of all that bloodbowl will come out. I wonder if this week's Wd has a hint in it. It is the last weekly white dwarf so it may not. Edited July 27, 2016 by Chikout Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just a quick note - Blood Bowl, Adeptus Titanicus etc are all being done by the new Specialist Games studio, so may or may not overlap with main studio productions, so there release windows are a bit less certain. Anyway, come on September!!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just had my stock delivered. It doesn't have a hint but it does have a page about the new WD and some of it's contents. There's Planet Warhammer, which is the new news section. A Tale of Four Warlords, which sounds like another Tale of Four Gamers series of articles. The Free Gift is described as the most spectacular gift ever, which given what it is, i'd have to agree, an £18 miniature is certainly more than they've offered before. Battle Reports are noted as coming back, the first being Stormcast vs Chaos in a castle. Subscriptions are £50/US$80 at the moment, with the magazine itself being £5.99/$9 an issue. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sleboda Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 On the subscription price - Subscribe and get 3 issues for free. Not bad considering the old GW norm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would definitely recommend picking up the first issue though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AdHocGames Posted July 28, 2016 Share Posted July 28, 2016 I've done a quick review of the new 32mm and 25mm Shattered Dominion bases coming out this weekend. In short, the designs are excellent but completely let down by the material it's cast in. It's the same terrible plastic used in the Warhammer 40k bases and things like the Plasma Obliterator. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mirbeau Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 Lady Atia says a 'new' paint range and hobby supplies range is coming in August. Not again... I still haven't got over the loss of boltgun metal, the entire foundation range, dark flesh and a couple of the old greys. My fingers are crossed it's just a redesign and a reintroduction of some of the above. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Re-organizing the paints, putting back the "direct only" paints like Dark Reaper onto shelves, adding the Edge paints to normal stock etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

New sales rack is coming to retailers that can hold tons more paint (including all the air and other new stuff). Direct only paints are going back into stores. Could be wrong though, but that's what I heard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dez Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 (edited) Deathwatch vs Eldar, looks more like a campaign though. Yup I guess this is a boxed game after all. I'm excited for when they revamp the messy 40K universe, much happier playing AoS. Edited August 1, 2016 by Dez 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An AoS style reset for 40k might actually get me back into that game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WoollyMammoth Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 @FullMetalRPG Well its easy with your daemon models lol. I think a reboot would heavily change the culture which is what it really needs. I think they are afraid to lose an important fanbase but with the continued success of AoS, I think a 40k reboot is inevitable. There are a lot of cool 40k models that almost nobody touches because of the state of the rules. I would love to paint a ton of them but its not worth it with the current climate of 40k. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dez Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 You nailed it Woolly. I play Orks (they suck) CSM (they suck) and Necrons (they suck...next to Eldar and Superfriends :)) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrstimpson38 Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 I think some of the best things to take away from aos is all points in one book, adopting the aos waracroll/point system (units are pointed out in groups with weapon loadouts already considered into the points), the rules ground down to the bare essentials (death to the USR!), and a total overhaul of unit rules to tie it all together. I think these things would really help 40k to be more appealing to a wider audience, and it has the potential to allow both games to mix in open play if done right. That seems beneficial to everyone.
