Just starting now and I am happy that Ash quickly covers that map with all the icons that we have been speculating about endlessly!

Thanks for sharing 😁

Oh does he detail which Warbands the icons belong to?

At 4:05 Ash very quickly goes over the map and mentions each icon and the associated army. He does clarify that the ornamented skull is Cities related but does not get into much detail and clearly doesn't know or imply that they will by tied to any future releases... but it is still cool to get a little more clarification on the map. 😊

From Sprues and Brews:

"The central cache known as Talaxis (named after the Azyrite explorer that first discovered it) is home to treasure and technological wonders that have incredible power such as the ability to return life to the dead, alter time or even change reality itself."

So Ven Talax is probably the name of that explorer, and Ven Talax path is probably named after them.

Theres pics of four creatures at the 4:00 mark that makes me wonder if they'll get models like the murder chickens and imps from season 1.

He even seems to skim past these pages with a quikness. 

Is the bottom right a Magmadroth? Could Fyreslayers get some love?

Watch GW just release a wild Magmadroth with no Fyreslayer keywords.

I don't remember a date in the article initially so I think the Miniature of the month article has been updated. I think we were mostly assuming it'd be first Saturday. One week extra wait for the free swamp dude:

"people who make their way into their local store from Saturday the 13th of August will earn themselves a sweet model taken from the Warcry: Heart of Ghur box set. Just walk into your nearest Warhammer and ask staff how to claim yours!"

The bit about asking how to claim is a bit of a worry. The start of the article still mentions it's free but looks like now there'll be some strings attached.

Does the Warhammer Community site do a specific thing for each day of the week? I know that preorder articles are for Sunday, and Horus Heresy is for Thursday, is there a specific day for other things like killteam, warcry, AoS etc?

Monday is usually New Model (Monday), which has typically been a FW Specialist Game reveal for Blood Bowl or Necromunda, though we've had other systems in the past (like Arcane Cataclysm).

Thursday usually gets a Leagues of Votann article, which can be lore, a new model or both.

Wednesday is shilling whatever they're putting onto W+ that week.

It's probably the same as the old one, that is it differs on a store to store basis. I've heard some stores will let you just walk in the door and walk out with it, some expect you to assemble it at a table, some have it pre-assembled and expect you to paint it at a table

Squinting at the various influencer videos, there's a particular emphasis on Ogor Butchers. That makes me think we'll see at least one warband themed around them. @KingBrodd

In addition, there's a lot of not-very-subtle hints that the Chorfs are coming, specifically that the Horns are their vanguard (we knew that already) and "Hashut's power is unquestionably on the rise".

Plus, the Duardin legions are already on their way to Thondia and the Horns are terrified they won't have the Gnarlwood flattened before they arrive.

The reference to Daemon-Engines in particular gets me excited as we've not really seen those in AoS yet outside of the Soul Grinder being carried over from Fantasy and would definitely give the Chorfs a unique niche compared to the other Chaos (and Dawi) factions.

It also appears 'Savage Seraphon' have replaced Furies and Raptoryxes.

New model monday is used for every system though and lately was used for Votann(we saw warriors,exo armors and the vehicle)-
Thursday is used mostly for HH with the "Heresy thursday article".
Considering the articles about Cthonian guilds i think this monday we'll see the Votann berserkers (the article mentioned we'll see soon "their most augmented members").

Thus "which has typically" Not every Monday is BB/Necromunda, but the vast majority of them have been, presumably because they don't need to save one-off resin Star Players and Hired Guns for big events.

The Votann reveals have been a mix of Monday (for models) and Thursday.

New Ogors, Seraphon pulling a Jurassic Park, and Chaos Dwarfs inbound…… this is HUGE NEWS!!! I don’t know how GW will be able to top these reveals next week at Gen-Con, but you know it’s going to be huge.

I'm curious if they could be doing these beasts as a way to give us new salamanders/razordons or new style of hunting packs for Seraphon?

Last year they announced quite a lot. Underworlds Harrowdeep, a kill team box, a bloodbowl team, black templars, a necromunda warband and teased warcry red Harvest. It was at the end of September last year which might make a difference.

Sweet Behemat I had forgotten!! Even if we get half that, thats still quite a reveal. Probably the last Underworlds Warband and another Warcry band at least?

Oh, Black Templars was GenCon?

Does make me wonder if we might see the Votann army box, or at least the next few Battletomes.

I guess we'll see the leaked Khorne warband for Underworlds now the Witch Hunters have been revealed. Amazons still aren't out for BB so probably nothing on that front. The next Adeptus Titanicus splat book maybe since it's been a while.
