BY SOTEK YES! This is the single most exciting rumour engine I have ever witnessed. It belongs to seraphon, no doubts. I love it, it seems to be integrating more of the 'ancient civilization from space' thing, which is very prominent in lore, but not yet in models. I don't think it could be a single hero, the spear doesn't seem ornate enough for that. Warcry warband is a possibility, especially since I remember during the preview online they put emphasis on how the meteors fell and how the jungle are really important for this season/edition of warcry. I'd obviously love it to be a whole range refresh, but tbh I'll take anything that's more than 1 model. Hell, I'll even take the 1 model if that's all. Anyway, now I wonder if through the potential warcry warband they'd  introduce a new unit or refresh an existing one. If the latter is true, I can see it being for a Cold one rider or a basic saurus warrior. Either way, I'm hypeeeeeed!

Buzzing for ya mate!! I used to have a massive Lizardmen army in WHFB and if they update the Saurus I would be hard pressed to not start them again!!

Hello,

 

On another note regarding upcoming Battletomes, for the Chaos one, don't you think it could be Tzeentch? With the classic "battle tome + one character" scheme, I thought back to this rumor engine:

If we take into account the White Dwarf's celestial tomes, they and Khorne remain as potential candidates (if I remember correctly) for coming out this fall.

A small recap with all the Rumour Engines (sorry if I forget of any). I ordered them by thematic.
Left side -> AoS
Right side -> 40k
Middle -> I'm not sure

We had rumours of Tzeentch, Seraphon, Lumineth, Gitz, Gargant, Beast (or Scenary), Cursed City Ghoul and a Hunter.

Pretty sure the Seraphon Rumor Engine is for a Warcry warband. The setting and theme of the new Warcry set coming out seems like a perfect fit for Seraphon. Dense forest/jungle near Mekitospar and things crashing into Ghur? Hopefully the Warcry warband is just a new multikit Saurus/Guard kit that has enough customization to make sense as a warband.

Which honestly at this point I think might be my preferred choice? I'd love to be able to just buy ONE box and have a fully playable Seraphon set. Gives us time to get used to painting and building the new designs too :)

I have seen the warscroll, it’s legit

 

wont post here cause it’s against the rules

 

Different from the one posted 4 pages ago, with the incorrect labeling for a modern Champion entry (doesn't identify the Krone as a champion) on the old format from a previous edition for a Warscroll?

So, we see more and more clearly for the short-term aos's future :

  • Summer : Sylvaneth / Skavens 
  • Autumn : Lumineth / Tzeench / Destruction tome (Sons of Behemat with special character/super-mega gargant kit according with some rumour engine pics ?) / Destruction tome (personnal guess : Gloomspite Gitz)
  • Winter : Slaves to Darkness
  • 2023 : Cities of Sigmar revamped before 3rd edition's end (I hope sooooo much !!)
  • LOVE IT! 1

Extremely funny someone used a different screen to take a picture of their screen, to make this look more 'legit'

Yup.  

If it ends up somehow being legit, its going to be a really sad example of something that has issues being compliant with 3E in general due to unit champion issue.

But for now, unless I see a picture of the page in the book, I'm thinking fake.

Gentle remind folks.  Firstly we do have a no potato picture policy on TGA, we have been fairly chilled on it recently for a few bits.  Secondly, please try to avoid putting up fakes - get's people's hopes up and we spend far too long debating something that isn't real!

Just for everyone's information, the fake Blood Stalker warscroll is already making the rounds in my local FB group. 

Admittedly the "NotWhiteFang" name cracked me up, but these do more harm than good. 

Now excuse me while I go breakup multiple fights between some DoK, NH, and HoS players.

With the reuse of assets like cover art, I wouldn't be surprised if they reuse flavor text this edition.

I mean, the changes to Avatars - including addressing their horrid reliability and their gaining of a unique 'un-monster' monster rule (which gives them both limited access to rampages AND immunity to them - get wreckt GUO!) - gives me a lot of hope they didn't just zero effort the DoK book.  Very encouraged.
