Melcavuk Posted May 10, 2018 Share Posted May 10, 2018 Definately having that big red handed "not hulk" at the back for an Ogor conversion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elfhead Posted May 10, 2018 Share Posted May 10, 2018 A lot of opportunities for some AoS conversions. Those rogue traders make for some great free people with some weapon swap and removing some techy bits. And the nurgly mutants are great too, especially the big ones.

Mandzak-Miniatures Posted May 10, 2018 Share Posted May 10, 2018 I am excited for absolutely none of this. GW is on this Nurgle ride that has passed its stop several times. Some models look good, but I am very over it lol. At this point I feel like it's pandering, with a little bit of patronizing haha. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ungface Posted May 10, 2018 Share Posted May 10, 2018 (edited) They wont be available outside of the box, much like the grot scuttlings etc. So theres no reason to be either unexcited or excited about it from an AoS perspective.

HorticulusTGA Posted May 10, 2018 Share Posted May 10, 2018 Well I was worried that Rogue Trader game would come next month and obscure the AOS news but it's for late 2018 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It means that Warhammer Fest could reveal news for the rest of 2018. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barkanaut Posted May 11, 2018 Share Posted May 11, 2018 I love rogue trader so I hope we see it expanded into its own army, but first we need Kroot. That way rogue trader can remake guardians of the galaxy lol. I am Kroot. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There’s no need for bitterness, the lord of all welcomes any new followers, if youd only embrace the cycle of life, death and rebirth ??

mhsellwood Posted May 11, 2018 Share Posted May 11, 2018 11 hours ago, Arkiham said: its 40k. but its still nurgle. new nurgle units? the 2 wound variety like Tzaangor Looks really cool (puts 40K hat on for a mo) up the front is clearly poxwalkers but... mechanised, same with the nurglings, and the grotesques up the back ring with a combination of both nurgle, slaanesh, khorne and technology. The unusual imperial models, perhaps inquisition... but not clearly as such (hope those lasgun equipped models get a larger release). Is this a 40K expansion like Masque of Death or is this a board game like Silver Tower? Very interesting. From an AoS point of view, I can see some very easy conversions - all the Choas stuff basically looks like it could be put straight in with no work necessary bar maybe some conversion work to reduce the mechanical aspect. The imperial stuff will be harder as there are quite a few guns et al, but a few weapon swaps, some shields and voila you have a nice AoS28 collection. For Age of Sigmar, I have the following predictions for Warhammer Fest: Decent reveal on a new magic supplement, the next step of the Malign Portents storyline some more concrete reveals on the Soul War box set - maybe just a 30 second or so tiny thing, but enough to start the engines Very small reveal on the next army (I reckon Soul War will be Malignants/Nighthaunts vs Stomcast and Freeguild, so the one after that) - I feel that Slaanesh is the go here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RuneBrush Posted May 11, 2018 Share Posted May 11, 2018 Well my current plan is to attend the new models seminar tomorrow and will shove things up onto Twitter & Instagram with a proper report on Monday. Generally there's a good mixture across all systems so I'm sure AoS will get something. I do think that Rogue Trader has highlighted is that GW still can surprise us - so there could be something completely unseen for us One additional prediction I can see tomorrow is the next step in Warhammer Underworlds. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AthlorianStoners Posted May 11, 2018 Share Posted May 11, 2018 The ticks and flies could easily jump over to AoS. I can also see th bug thing at the back being a Nurgle Daemon Prince. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gecktron Posted May 11, 2018 Share Posted May 11, 2018 I liked this story. A city from the first season of war campaign, alarielle and the Ironweld Arsenal, whats not to like? Also some of these descriptions made me thing we will see them as units sooner or later. For example: "surveyors in hook-nosed masks strode through the murk upon mechanical striders" "Like the others, she wore a panelled overcoat of mustard-yellow and crimson, over thick breeches and leather gloves. " Plus the mention of a Cog-hauler and the fact that this is the second story that has a Cog-fort as its center. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
