cyrus Posted September 14, 2022 Share Posted September 14, 2022 1 hour ago, Chikout said: There's a little too much doom and gloom about next year. Since when did a new edition release mean a year dominated by that faction. 40k has 3 books left before 10th edition which will probably launch in July. We could easily get Slaves plus two more large releases next year before 10th hits. We can expect two or three months dominated by 40k then there will be plenty of room for another couple of big AoS releases. 40k got Orks and Black templars after AoS launched last year. If AoS has a quiet year next year it's because they don't have product ready not because of anything to do with 40k. Yes , I do agree completely. There is enough room for big releases for AoS in 2023. My personal guesses : Ossiarch : new hero + new archer unit Khorne: new sculpts for Valkia and Lord on juggernaut Soulblight : new hero + new grave guard unit Gloompspite : new scuttle boss on giant spider/new mad cap shaman/new loonboss with cave squig. FEC : new hero Carrion king , new ghouls unit , new varghulf Seraphon : full refresh of old minis Kharadron : new hero Slaanesh : new herald BoC : new Morghur , full refresh of old minis New Cities/dawnbriger crusades : Armybox set + 2nd wave 1 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Overread Posted September 14, 2022 Share Posted September 14, 2022 Right now it looks like almost all of Slaves to Darkness will be updated save for the enigma that is the on foot Marauders which I'm still utterly baffled that GW hasn't had them updated through Warcry Also speaking of Warcry did GW say they were pulling them from sale? Cause a LOT of the warbands on both Warcry and their regular AoS boxed sets are gone from the webstore (sold out). I don't quite recall GW saying they were going to sell out/remove/range rotate warcry stuff. I know they did it for Underworlds semi-recently. Otherwise we are approaching a time where Chaos will have all 4 core Chaos Gods with fleshed out human and demon forces; Slaves to Darkness fleshed out. Leaving Skaven and Beastmen. The updating and additions are a steady grind with AoS, there's just a lot to get through between small armies needing more and big armies needing range updates. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If GW does not change its way, 4th edition should be released in July 2024 (which is too late for me if the Cities of Sigmar are released just before ^^). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think next year or at least this Edition, that BOC will recieve a large range update with Skaven in 4.0. That brings an entire Alliance up to scratch in terms of minis. 13 minutes ago, Nezzhil said: My fault, I wanted to write "next year".

And truth be told, sticking a totally generic (ok, they colored him blue/gold) Undivided warrior on a disc is the last thing I want. We got Tzaangors, a Fatemaster (that dude should be a bit more buff like the Curseling and you got your cool armored disc-rider) and a Magister to scratch that particular itch. But a Tzeentchian mortal elite should be as distinct as the ones from the other gods... And due to Tzaangors, i personally believe they should not be on discs. A scrappy Undivided warrior with tears in his cape and holes in his boot stuck to a disc? That's cheap and beneath us. 😎 They just need to pump out a unit that leans into the Curseling style (minus the tretchlet), maybe with totally sexy sorcerer robes and we're finally were we need to be! I see an AoS kit similar to the Exalted sorcerers personally with lots of bits as the best inspiration for the overall feel personally.

RyantheFett Posted September 14, 2022 Share Posted September 14, 2022 (edited) Changes seem fun so far. Looks like they really trying to give the units a stronger identity and give us more options then just spearmen and archers in every list. WIndchargers now being assassins/missiles seems fun. And it will be interesting to see how far they push the cows into the tanky objective holders.

Because it’s a spell and not easy to get off. look at where bone splitters is and they have it armywide on their arguably best subfaction. And they are balance by their lack of rend so it only there to boost their measly damage by not getting negated. this is on a unit that not tied to a subfaction and can be brought in mass who are also not chump in the actual shooting game. Not saying it strong or overpower, but they are clearly putting them on better units as time is going on.
