If a new skaven revamp added skaven subs I would be sold so fast on skaven. I already love stormfiends and the rest of clan skyre I just do not want to deal with either metal kits or 3d printing/converting a bunch of models Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why not all of the above. All of the clans have a lot of metal or just super old and ugly kits. I'm hoping for a Soulblight gravelords type release with a bunch of resculpts and only a couple of completely new units. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skryre and pestilens could be solved with a kit or two each. Plague monks and censors could easily by the same body with different build options. The skryre weapon teams (excluding the doom flayer) + jezzails could all be the same basic 2 skaven with some kind of weapon that you just change some bits to make each option. Honestly pestilens has 1 until less than moulder does, it could use something new as well. The only clan that could go with nothing new, just kits updates to plastic, is skryre. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magnusaur Posted January 8, 2022 Share Posted January 8, 2022 I would prefer that they first 'cover the bases', updating the core of shared units between Skaven clans while teasing the different directions the range can/will move in the future. Similarly to Gravelords, really. I'm more partial to the Skryre/Moulder clans, but I'd hate to see an update were all the weird gizmo-techno-rats look great but the "humble" dates back to a previous millennia. Incidentally, GW updating the basic Ork, Chaos Space Marine, Eldar Guardian, and Necron Warrior within just a few years of each other brings me great joy. Troops/battleline updates and additions is where it's at! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neverchosen Posted January 8, 2022 Share Posted January 8, 2022 I am confused, is Blade Born releasing this week? It says we can get it already in Canada, but I have never once seen it here and it also claims to be at Barnes and Noble, which I believe is just an American store. I have tried Indigo/Chapters to no avail and I think that I will likely never get my grubby mitts on this set.https://www.warhammer-community.com/2022/01/08/this-weeks-pre-orders-include-a-double-decker-codex-drop/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maogrim Posted January 8, 2022 Share Posted January 8, 2022 So I hope all Chaos-affiliated Ratmen fans on these splendid forums are looking forward to the next Skaven battletome which will bring a brand new Pestilens War Abbot OR a fresh Rat Ogre handler hero and absolutely nothing else. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Troops/battleline updates and additions is where it's at! Troop/Battleine updates are what we most want!! If they updated Gluttons to be dynamic I would literally buy 5 boxes immediately even if the price were raised by £5.* *Please dont raise the price GW. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neverchosen Posted January 8, 2022 Share Posted January 8, 2022 (edited) So with all the hype around Skaven submarines it would be pretty cool to get an update of Dreadfleet/Man o War that no one will purchase except for us! AoS is much more suited for this type of play where tech is more tied to High Fantasy concepts of magical engineering: Flocks of Dragons, Fleets of Kharadaron lead by Khrundhal-class Battleships, Large Kraken Eaters wading through the sea, Black Arks, Man Eater Pirate Ships, Ancient Leviadons and larger Idoneth creatures, Flying Bloodthisters and Lords of Change, Skaven Submarines, Darkoath Longships, Ghostly Galleons, Grotbag Skyships, and of Course Vampirates. Of course we can get large Godbeasts in this scale. Edited January 8, 2022 by Neverchosen 1 1 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The price would go up much more than £5 on updated Gluttons. No way you’re getting 6 Ogor sized models for £35 when 10 or even sometimes 5 infantry models are that price or damn close already.

It's hard to swallow sometimes that a 5 model squad of Alarith Stoneguard are 45€ / 36.5£ with just the heads of the hammers as interchangeable options. Fortunately nobody has to pay full price for GW models. And they are amazing sculpts and I love them deeply. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kronos Posted January 8, 2022 Share Posted January 8, 2022 Dreadfleet at the scale of Titanicus would be so so cool. The details would be fascinating. *Sitting contently in my own imaginary hobby dreamworld, just like the Chaos Dwarf lot* 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noserenda Posted January 9, 2022 Share Posted January 9, 2022 (edited) Yeah I think the Skaven range is wide and old enough they couldn't fix it in one pass, so triage really needed to get the clan battle lines cleared up and bring back/replace the lost Eshin stuff as they seem the worst off, might be biased ofc Edited January 9, 2022 by Noserenda 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
