I love the Knight models and would love to see my Sons expanded but I think it's still too soon, granted itll be 2 years in April since the Sons were supposed to be released, having been delayed into October.

The Mancrusher could definitely use an update and a 2nd Mega kit covering a Shaman or the Matriarch of a Stomp would be perfect. Also of course that makes room for King Brodd!!

I could also see Half-Gargants making an appearance. Seeing as how an Ogor is halfway to a Gargant in size anyway and that some Ogor Tyrants wrestle Mancrushers for fun, perhaps we could see an Ogor Gargant mix!?

I would love a Shaman/Matriarch kit for the line. And new Mancrusher kit that can be built as male or female gargants.

I think out of the 4 armies that need major range refresh, Seraphon is probably the one that is most likely to happen soon. I felt that Kroak being release in BR was not likely to been a stand-alone model release and that he was design with a batch of other stuff by the model team.

plus they have gotten a lot of narrative development lately.

Yeeees, this! How come you don't work for the GW dev team? Or were you just... never chosen??

I would love to, but I think that creating a pirate subfaction for each army and pushing Critters and Keys for the Specialist games would not get me through the interview, making your joke even more apt 😭

 things that are interesting. Is that the Kruleboyz don’t like the Seraphon in Ghur because they are realmscaping the jungles and the Kruleboyz want to turn the land into tainted swamps. 
 

the Era of the beast have also cause the Seraphon to go wild because of their primal nature and the Slaans have to expand more magic to keep them in check. However the  Koatl’s claw constellation is embracing their savage nature

This could be a good sign for Seraphon range update!! What better way to update the models then have them going more feral lorewise, bigger badder Saurus and even bigger and badderer(?) Kroxigors!!

That would be fantastic! I think it could also result in some cool rules changes for Coalesced vs Starborne regarding the use of generals. Namely they may actually try and make taking a Saurus general for Coalesced have more dynamic rules changes for the army if they become more savage when the Slann is not present. I know it isn't the best rule but maybe if they fail battleshock the Seraphon will cause mortal wounds as they flee if there is not a Slann general present in a Coalesced army.

I for one welcome our new pirate Tyranid overlords

That rule actually sounds amazing mate!! I love thematic rules even though I dont game.

Destruction can have Kragnos, but they should trade the Fimir back to Chaos.

the Fomoroid Crusher is basically a new Fimir

but GW doesn’t like making more of things, still waiting for more Ogroids

Do we think destruction will get a new army at the end of this era of the beast or an updated army like gravelords? Im hoping for new ogors or spiderfang. I will keep on dreaming about new gitmob grots/snotlings for now.

I believe so. Personally I'm hoping for Ogors to get a range update this Edition, if they were to be expanded upon I think Firebellys would be the way to do it.

I revised the /tg rumours (NHvsLumineth, Sylvaneth and Warcry 2.0) and they were posted one day before the first Darkoath was shown so I believe him.

We have a rumor about Malerion Aelves coming in the next Underworlds box in Q2 2022.

Whether it will by synced with a release for AoS or not, time will tell.

The release pattern during 2nd edition was Legions of Nagash just prior to the edition change, Nighthaunt at launch, followed by FEC, then OBR about a year and a half in, then Gravelords at the end. No guarantee that GW will stick to a similar pattern this time around, but if they do, I would predict something like this:

  • Orruk Warclans to start
  • Gitz as the 5th tome with minimal new units (probably just a hero).
  • New destruction faction some time during year 2.
  • Ogors get an update with new models near the end.
  • Sons don't get anything.

I completely agree.

Warclans had their update and the next Tome for Destruction will be Gloomspite with a Hero update and hopefully another unit for Spiderfang.

Ogor Mawtribes will hopefully get the major update for Destruction this Edition with a range wide update with all new units, updated models and actual heroes.

Sons of Behemat will just be a Battletome update but seeing as they came out not too long before 3.0 they may even miss the Tome update this Edition.
