Edit: he probably right that the next tome is Skaven though, it being more then just a standard book release is ? Same thought and hope. but as long as they bring in a doomwheel commander, that unlocks doomwheels as battleline, that book is going to be awesome 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think they are any more trustworthy than any other reasonably informed community members... the Skaven in the summer thing just seems to be a process of elimination on who has books / tome celestial already. I'm nor sure what there think but I definitely wouldn't be getting excited about a range refresh for Skaven in the summer, what with Eldar refresh and new Heresy stuff and new Squats later in the year. I might be wrong though (I'd be very happy to be wrong to be clear). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neverchosen Posted April 10, 2022 Share Posted April 10, 2022 I feel like skaven are a given but the extent and range of the release is what is in question. Lots of rumours are for an Eshin focus which is desperately needed, but overall I feel like it needs a mass range refresh! Especially because if any single side of Skaven is refreshed the parts that are not will look really dated. It isn't simple like Eldar were all the troops needed updating but the mechs and fliers looked good enough to wait. Even Seraphon can get away with updating the Saurous and resin kits and leave the skinks and monsters for the time being. But if we up date ninja rats then the other rats will look much worse in comparison... True there are some more modern models and the monsters and warmachines look great still but I feel like updating skaven doesn't really work piecemeal. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rachmani Posted April 10, 2022 Share Posted April 10, 2022 Given the realm we fight in and the narrative context we have, anything else than Clan Moulder would surprise me. What‘d be more fitting, than a Clan that catches, breeds and mutates monsters? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Augusto Posted April 10, 2022 Share Posted April 10, 2022 We have Whitefang rat picture, shadow rats coming to underworlds, the mischief clue, meaning a group of rats. I doubt it will be a range refresh tho, but a couple of new hero and units ala NH 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which makes me think that it wont be a major release, probably Nighthaunt 3.0 level. I think if they're going to refresh the entire range it would come alongside some major narrative push such as 4.0 or a Broken Realms type thing. Skaven are one of Warhammers most iconic Factions and it's sad to see them languish with no major update in so long, but I have a feeling that it is definitely coming. 2 minutes ago, Augusto said: We have Whitefang rat picture, shadow rats coming to underworlds, the mischief clue, meaning a group of rats.

Noserenda Posted April 10, 2022 Share Posted April 10, 2022 I mean, they have already been updating Skaven in waves since the 90's, which is why some of the range is so dated and some of it is holding up fine. A lot of stuff got updated just before WFB died so its in ranked up poses but they dont actually look awful in a mass of ratties unlike Ogres. Eshin has some of the oldest kits in the range, and hasnt had any real development in a loooong time, then Skyre has its acolytes costing an insane amount for very dated minis and the various weapon teams needing a plastic update. So in a perfect (ha) world: Eshin Sorceror hero Skyre Warlock Engineer hero Nightrunners unit Skyre Acolytes unit, maybe some new options included, crosses over with... Skyre Weapon teams box (kinda like the Imperial guard heavy weapons) Gutter Runners Warcry Warband Triad underworlds band Isnt toooo unreasonable but i guess we shall see. 3 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Consider them dynamic alternate models, and just add aether rifles, pistols and other stuff and you have an easy unit doubler. You can glue handeggs to the backs for a semblance of backpacks. Less interesting after the price hike. I think Blood bowl fits the flavour better than grimderp stuff. It's playing with toy soldiers, it shouldn't pretend to be too serious. Also, the Snotling team isn't even bothered with playing the game, they are just vibing and an awesome flex of the designer's creativity. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noserenda Posted April 11, 2022 Share Posted April 11, 2022 Yeah, hate to break it to you that blood bowl is a separate game made by a separate team that has zero impact on AoS releases. So you just look bad. 8 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's fine that you don't like it. I don't either especially. But I disagree that it's just a waste of resources. Some folks out there probably think the same in reverse... Why focus on AoS when bloodbowl could be a main game? I'm glad they make lots of different things. Some i like, some I don't, but it broadens tje appeal of the hobby as a whole, and gives more people than ever an avenue to play. 16 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
