MechaBriZilla Posted August 18, 2016 Share Posted August 18, 2016 (edited) 10 minutes ago, The Jabber Tzeentch said: There is a rumour of death getting a release sometime in the future but it's very non specific I saw that, but it doesn't give me a ton of hope. I mean it's nice to see a 2016 date attached to it, but it's so non-specific as to resemble a guess. Not trying to be whiny, but it's frustrating looking at these lists of yet more Order and Chaos Releases, which likely contain new models, while Death has had one battletome, that was a re-pack special. Bad enough we lost variety in our Alliance with the loss of Tomb Kings, but the lack of attention since AoS dropped, is very disappointing. My only hope is that the long lead up to a real Death update means major items in the development pipe. But when that new Battletome finally does drop, I'll be very disappointing if it isn't magnificent.

Nico Posted August 18, 2016 Share Posted August 18, 2016 I just hope they do a book of allegiance packs for "settled" armies Flesh Eaters, TK (I beg), Fyreslayers, Seraphon (possibly release these as electronic things individually on the app) sooner rather than later. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RuneBrush Posted August 18, 2016 Share Posted August 18, 2016 I can see where you're coming from - brother is a huge TK fan/collector so I hear similar comments from him. The season/age that we've been in was very much Order & Chaos driven but this is now done and ultimately re-established Order as the guys currently at the top of the tree. I actually think Death is being saved up for something special. Chaos has received a bit of a kicking and Destruction only just emerging as a force. Likely Nagash has been waiting in the wings to see what happens and has some devious machination to twist things to his own ends - which would be very thematic! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nico Posted August 18, 2016 Share Posted August 18, 2016 3 weeks without an AoS release and the withdrawal symptoms are killing us. I'm almost at the point of buying Fyreslayers.... I need help. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I remember of the current fluff nagash is building his power up. But the next story arc is meant to be focused on tzeentch Slaanesh and Shadowkin so might not see any death until that arc has finished. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As mentioned, I believe the next focus is on Tzeentch. But maybe, as in the case of the Stormcast getting released along with Bloodbound, Tzeentch will need someone to be opposing. Maybe Death will be in there. I feel like that wouldn't be a bad spot. Two factions best known for powerful casters... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dez Posted August 18, 2016 Share Posted August 18, 2016 Check this out, via Faeit 212: http://natfka.blogspot.com/2016/08/how-is-age-of-sigmar-doing.html via very solid sources on Faeit 212 AoS makes 35% or GWs Sales. Comparing to Fantasy ? Before it was squatted WFB was ~5% (and therefore lower than paints & tools) 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sadysaneto Posted August 18, 2016 Share Posted August 18, 2016 I guess tzeench next is a given. But if i had to bet, it would be something order vs tzeench. new dorfs vs silver tower repack would be sweet. but who am i kidding, it will be sylvaneth vs nurgles. Because GW.

DamonRafael Posted August 19, 2016 Share Posted August 19, 2016 I do think next will be Slaanesh vs Aelf. There are a lot of open questions here, and they already made a Sylvaneth-Nurgle plot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daedalus81 Posted August 19, 2016 Share Posted August 19, 2016 It'd probably make sense for Nagash to go after Free Peoples to stick it to Sigmar giving us more Death and long awaited mortals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nagash v free people makes sense. Maybe it will be duardin v tzeentch? And orruks against everyone?

James McPherson Posted August 20, 2016 Share Posted August 20, 2016 I hope September will see updates for all the existing factions allegiance abilities. I read that was rumoured somewhere for September in the form of a big book called 'Allegiances of the Realms' or something around the time when the GHB came out, maybe it's too good to be true, would be really nice though. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blueraven84 Posted August 21, 2016 Share Posted August 21, 2016 Aos rumour draught is so bad I bought small army of Ironjawz. Hopefully next week something other than yet another power armour release. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully next week something other than yet another power armour release. Doubtful. The first monthly White Dwarf is said to contain stuff about Kharn and some Chaos stuff for 40k. As the White Dwarf would now seem to be a retrospective look on the past month, I think it'd be safe to assume that it'll be a 40k pre order again next week and no significant AoS release until September. From that, and with the details of the free model on the White Dwarf, it's likely that the first release could actually be the Gorechosen box set too, as the free model isn't in that box (IIRC).
