Likely alongside or just before a Sylvanath Battletome (complete with endless spells and maybe terrain) I though that it was more a rumor, not yet confirmed... BTW, seeing what is already in the SC! Sylvaneth, I'm curious about what they will fiil this box with (except for a new hero of course) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grimrock Posted April 19, 2019 Share Posted April 19, 2019 3 hours ago, Overread said: Don't forget the terrain and endless spells won't jump over to 40K and Slaanesh is in as much need in 40K as in AoS for updates. Minor point, but the khorne terrain is jumping over to 40k and I believe the gnarlmaw did as well. I'd actually be pretty surprised if the slaanesh terrain was AoS only. I'd expect fulgrim and some noise marines, but I wouldn't be surprised if we saw mortal cultists in AoS become 40k cultists with a different weapon sprue, just like they did with tzaangors. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blightzkrieg Posted April 19, 2019 Share Posted April 19, 2019 There was a teaser but we dont 100% know it's a goblin vs sylvaneth box. It's extremely likely however. I'd say like 90%. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
novakai Posted April 19, 2019 Share Posted April 19, 2019 Well it is not confirm but general assumption that it is a Gloomspite vs Sylvaneath box set since it was describe as Fungus vs tree at adepticon 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeneralZero Posted April 19, 2019 Share Posted April 19, 2019 As I can see it, it seems to be Gloomspite (squig oriented army) VS something that contain a bug. To me, we are far from sylvaneth even if they are good contenders. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To me, we are far from sylvaneth even if they are good contenders. The bug looks like a Sylvaneth spite though and the description they gave was "fungus vs flora". Flora meaning plants, so unless they're making a new plant-based faction, it'll be Sylvaneth. It's also worth noting that the new Sylvaneth warband has bugs in the models that look similar in style to the one in the Looncurse teaser. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riavan Posted April 19, 2019 Share Posted April 19, 2019 Gloomspite vs nurgle Forrest faries. I want more nurgle than stormcast releases. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ManlyMuppet88 Posted April 19, 2019 Share Posted April 19, 2019 Sylvaneth and Gloomspite seems likely but there is no evidence at all that it’s a box set. Could be a board game. All we’ve got is a 30 second animated video with a squig hopper and a bug - could be anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Minis by Night Posted April 19, 2019 Share Posted April 19, 2019 (edited) Although my first guess is also that it's Sylvaneth VS Gloomspite dual box, I have to say that I find it strange that they would do that with an army that just got released. A dual box is pretty much the biggest discount we can expect from GW (apart from the Battleforces) and most of the time we have to wait a good long year just for a start collecting box. I would definitely not consider that a confirmed rumour. Also, dual box usually contain one new hero per army, and we saw the weird flying earwig thingy in the trailer, that can be linked to a few rumour engines, and I very much doubt that's a hero. Maybe they changed the dual box formula? Maybe it's a new type of box? ...and maybe it's a phone game and the marketing at GW is evil! Who knows?

GeneralZero Posted April 20, 2019 Share Posted April 20, 2019 My bet: gloomspite didn't sell well enough : a dual army box with gloomspite is a second chance to launch the sale of this army. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
novakai Posted April 20, 2019 Share Posted April 20, 2019 Well since Looncurse was advertise and tease by GW themselves I would think it not a mobile games but in the realm of what they usually releases. (miniatures and board games) usually games are advertised by the company that GW licensed to makes them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The opposite is more likely. Gloomspite sold so well they want to pair them in another skew with Sylvaneth who are getting an update. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They did a similar thing with that second chamber of stormcast. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Incineroar87 Posted April 20, 2019 Share Posted April 20, 2019 Do we have an idea or data of what AOS armies have sold very well vs what hasn't ? I'd imagine they would have a sold a lot of boxes of stabbas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That sounds like data GW wouldn't want to be available for your average joe to look at so my guess is no. The only indication I can see is how much an army is still talked about after the initial hype has died down but even then it's not accurate.

Chikout Posted April 20, 2019 Share Posted April 20, 2019 I think people are forgetting the production schedule on these boxes. Gloomspite only came out 3 months ago. The Looncurse box was probably planned at least a year ago. White dwarf magazine always used to be written three months in advance. Any products they covered in the magazine would already be designed and manufactured before that. 4 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
