Kaleb Daark Posted October 30, 2021 Share Posted October 30, 2021 Darkoath barbarians and fly face made it for me. i reckon that there’s more nurgle to come as the battletome nears. But yes, we live the new marauders… now, about that war mammoth they obviously ride on… 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandyRyan Posted October 30, 2021 Share Posted October 30, 2021 Ooh yes. Chunky barbarians and Pirate Ogre will be joining me for Christmas I hope! Even if I agree some of the female marauders' faces do look odd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Memorable reveal as the information that Sisters of Silence would be rolled into Custodes and mentioned to not be strategically viable as SoS only army caused my phone to blow up from messages from a friend who belongs to the extremely small but fanatically loyal secret society only spoken about in revered tones. You might have heard their name whispered in awe and fear, for their madness and dedication knows no bounds - for they are Sisters of Silence mains. *waves in happy thoughtmark* Im actually really happy about armybooks with just one mini tbh. Its not the best thing obviously but the alternative is no army book at all, remember releases are driven entirely by model development not by what books need revising right now. So if there are no Nurgle minis coming down the pipe, no book. They used to save things up for a larger release, and single heroes are relatively quick to design, develop and release (and are often side, or passion projects from the sculptors rather than commissioned exactly) so they make a new army book considerably more plausible. Which is usually good! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kronos Posted October 31, 2021 Share Posted October 31, 2021 (edited) So I’ve noticed today’s preview was rather Human. Yes, there were variances from xenos to spider xenos and an ogor. But generally everything we saw was rather human in aspect. No tanks, vehicles, or weird creatures from any system, big or small -again the warband is just 4 supporting models. Rather odd no large model kits were previewed, not counting the Khan. Edited October 31, 2021 by Kronos Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scurvydog Posted October 31, 2021 Share Posted October 31, 2021 Thinking this could have been a new marauder kit to std bul will just be another cultist warscroll with 1 attack on 4+/4+ makes me so sad... But darn it they are cool. You could remove the AoS name and replace with with Conan and nobody would have thought twice. I'm already scared of the new nurgle, disease and permanent debuffs and Dot's sounds nasty! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holy_Diver Posted October 31, 2021 Share Posted October 31, 2021 I would like to reflect on a question, without going too far OT: now that warcry will be relaunched by the new expansion, do you think it will gain the popularity it deserves? I hope so, because it is one of the funniest rules written by GW and I don't understand why it doesn't have its own circuit 😐 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder whether a new edition will actually do good, because it also creates a divide between people happy with the last edition and people that get in now. As for Bladeborn: Happy to see that Theddra's powermetal band gets a new lease on life. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess you could give them some 1W mortal infantry, but then the question becomes what role they could play that plaguebearers or the various STD options don't. More broadly, I think it's fine if new battletomes don't necessarily come with new models. Especially if that gets them out faster after an edition change. I'll repeat my broken record about how they really just need to admit it's 2021 and move to a digital rules distribution system that isn't tied to releasing a physical book every 3-4 years, but if they're truly committed to this antiquated method of delivering rules, they need to be prioritizing updating the rules on an edition shift, not holding back books in order to pair them with miniature releases. probably just plastic nurgle toads. also I agree with the second point. paper only books are pain. GW is just greedy and clueless carried by the best sculpts and lore in the "game" 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ian0delond Posted October 31, 2021 Share Posted October 31, 2021 Having a store group pay an exclusivity deal is good way to make sure they try to push your product. And those products are meant for capturing more casual TT customers who never go to their stores in the first place. Putting those in the usual stores isn't an objectif and if the usual customers really want it they can always find a way to get one (even though it can be expensive in a market without any of those exclusivity deals).

The last significant releases for Warcry was last year with Catecombs and the GA books Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noserenda Posted October 31, 2021 Share Posted October 31, 2021 The other big problem with Warcry is that they made all the non warcry specific warbands better than the warcry ones (like, significantly better) so people either used existing minis or bought AoS stuff that couldnt be identified by GW as for use with Warcry. So suddenly warcry has poor sales... It is in fact the best skirmish game id played in years, but i think they really need some more non chaos warbands to broaden the appeal. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the contrary, I would only allow chaos warbands, is like complaining that Necromunda doesn’t feature xenos bands… I think that it would be good for the game, not only from the balance perspective but also for the flavour and the uniqueness of the setting. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really? Because Necromunda does have a xenos gang... More seriously, the eightpoints is literally the hub of AoS, thats why its so important and constantly being fought over by everyone, with two recent/ongoing large scale invasions to boot. Anyone can get there and everyone has some good reasons to do so. Limiting your range to just chaos cultists is super limiting and its inevitably going to hurt the game from a lack of variety. Plus we get a series of interesting warbands for various races that showcase something interesting, like underworlds but better essentially.

I thought They where doing well when they introduced the Shadowstalkers. I am surprise they didn’t keep making warbands for different armies not just for S2D 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
