Gitzdee Posted July 14, 2022 Share Posted July 14, 2022 (edited) I love some speculation about possible new Warcry models. What i love more is a new hint/picture for the next boxed set for AoS, starting to think u forgot about us @Whitefang XD.

I have a sneaking suspicion we won't get much of an update to goblins and ogres. Instead we will get a new army somehow tied to Kragnos, and those weird 3-fingered models we keep seeing in the rumor threads. I think with Destruction unless we get a new Faction we have been relegated ti single release minis for Ogors, Sons* and Gitz. Which is a damn shame for an Edition centred on Destruction and Era of the Beast because if we dont get updates now, when? 10 hours ago, Jetlife said: I can’t remember but did Warcry produce any new non chaos models outside of the khanate shadow stalkers?? I know they have other army kits but isn’t it just old models mixed in?!! I know the setting was in chaos lands but with this new edition in ghur I was hoping they would just have all destruction warbands. The fact that it starts with similar chaos style warbands to the original version has me skeptical that we will actually see new stuff outside of chaos. I hope this isn’t true because the lore they have set for this “season” is very immersive. I truly hope that the Destruction Warbands are at least all brand new. I swear to Behemat if we get repackaged boxes and Chaos keeps getting new Warbands... *Sons getting a single model is perfect for the Faction.

I think Mortek archers could feasibly be an arm swap, although some of the poses would be awkward. Mortek Guard are all modelled in an advancing pose, so maybe as long as an archer upgrade doesn't try to have them actually firing their bows it could work? It kinda did for Tomb Kings. Although I have to say, I would much rather see an upgrade sprue for Stalkers/Immortis guard to turn them into big boy archers. I think that would be much more fun. Soulblight Skeletons could potentially receive an archer upgrade sprue in the same way. However, I think it's more likely that we will see mortal thrills or something Vyrkos related for Warcry. I don't think Cities of Sigmar will see an upgrade sprue. They already announced their intent to completely redo the humans of the realms after all. We have some rumour engines that hint at human pioneers, so I suspect that will be it for CoS Warcry. What could Destruction related upgrade sprues look like? A Troggoth wizard? A make your own maneater kit on the basis of... Ironguts? I don't see anything that really makes sense for Spiderfang, and I sure hope Bonesplitters get new models rather than an upgrade. Chaos might be the best target for upgrade sprues, since their stuff already looks good and is generally pretty new. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd love an upgrade sprue for the IJ brutes, with sheilds, helmets, (even bulkier) armour. Chances are slim to zero, but we have to wish right? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As much as I would love to see the new war cry box drop this weekend, odds are we're gonna be getting the Chaos Space Marine expansions this week (Possesed, Cultists, Chosen, Warpsmith, etc).

Yeah, I would have thought so too, but they've done a warcry article every day this week and nothing for Chaos. Nothing else from the preview is being promoted this much. The only reason to do it is to prepare for an imminent release. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing else from the preview is being promoted this much. The only reason to do it is to prepare for an imminent release. I think it's clear something has gone wrong behind the scenes when it comes to the CSM releases. GW have historically always tied new miniature release waves to their Codex/Army Book/Battletome. There's been rumblings that GW is having product issues again, which may be why nothing but the Codex and peripherals have released yet, as well as a lot of the plastic 30k kits they've had unveiled for months now still being missing. Pretty much every new 30k box that's not the big boxset are Temporarily Unavailable Online as soon as they go back in stock. My guess is they'll want to get the CSM stuff out of the door ASAP and if that means a giant 'double booked' week they'll probably bite the bullet and do it just so the rest of the schedule doesn't go completely out of whack.

I would expect Kruleboyz to fill the "new destruction army", but a update to a existing one is still possible. If the symbols in the map turn to be true we can expect at least a warband for Ironjawz (I assume that is the Ironjawz symbol rather than a generic orruk one), Gitz and Ogors, which basically mean a extra unit for each. I doubt Orruks will get much more has they got a 3 edition book alredy. Gitz is one of the big armies of the game model/warscroll wise, so I doubt they will get much more than the warband + a hero if they get featured in a double box. Giants is kind hard to expand on if they want to keep the low model count monster army, so a upgrade sprue or a single kit would be the max I would expect. Mawtribes is the one that would need a update as it has some pretty dated kits, so I would say they are the most probable to get something big between the destruction factions.

Bit of a shame that one of the few AoS games is closing (sever issues apparently) - if anything, the animations were really nice. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps. Night haunt was the launch death army of 2.0. Was an extension of previous ghosts similar to how Kruleboyz are for Orcs. So if we follow that pattern which GW does keep at times, Death got the other 2 armies. 3.0 being about destruction would tend to lead us towards one brand new faction and another revamp. Following in the OBR and SBG format. The real question is what would the brand new destruction faction be? I for one will continue with this silent people talk!!! but I also feel like Kragnos needs his own army Edited July 14, 2022 by Jetlife 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remade yehtis, gorgers, and whatever else they wanted to come up with. Could be a really nice army to pair with Kragnos Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
