Overread Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 The global shipping is going to take years to settle down and that assumes no further major upheavals. That's going to keep having knock on effects for firms like GW outside of any internal politics/issues that arise for them. Still they are still releasing a massive amount of stuff, even if its a bit out of order. Heck I suspect that they'd love to just do a massive dump of stuff one month and just flood the market to catch up with their plans. Its' got to be so painful for staff to see stuff that they know is finished and ready just held back and held back because so much is trying to get out the door at once. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the thing with 3 year Edition cycles, eventually there is going to be a flood of AOS releases and next year the dam is bursting. I think Jan-July next year is going to be insane for AOS as we habe had mostly single mini releases for Factions and with only 10 Factions left to update for 3.0 and 40K 10th Edition next year I belieeve we will be seeing a lot of larger releases for AOS. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ogregut Posted September 19, 2022 Share Posted September 19, 2022 I wouldn't expect new model Monday or the big AoS reveal today as I'm guessing GW won't be publishing any articles due to the Queen's funeral. 1 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hate it but gotta agree that “big reveal” is probably a very minor reveal about mega gargants, unfortunately. Still, maybe we find out about a range refresh. A man can dream.

Since the themes of tzeentch generally focus around magic and fire you probably won't see melee units as top tier (it has happened in previous books, tzaangors in first edition for example, but gw seemed to realize the mistake they made giving a ranged army incredibly solid melee infantry and those units were nerfed into oblivion). Kairic acolytes could have been an option but they kind of wrote themselves into a corner making them cheap useless chaff, so you're pretty much left with making either horrors or flamers. We've all seen the trainwreck that happens when horrors are good, so then you're left with just flamers.

A unit buff could be in preparation for the release of a newly sculpted flamer unit. Between 40K demons codex and Tzeench codex, there's certainly the possibility of a new sculpt. Though I wouldn't bet on it (unless I had a pile of fate dice that is 😎). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean the terminology name doesn’t matter but naturally and as time goes on, the expectation shouldn’t be that they will always keep selling a kit forever nor is every kit that goes OOP is expected to be redone. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Overread Posted September 19, 2022 Share Posted September 19, 2022 I think one thing about flamers for Tzeentch is simply showing that the pure demonic parts of demon armies are actually very small. The updates all 4 gods have had over the past few years since AoS have focused mostly on the leaders and mortals. Actual demonic models are either updated or the same as they've been for a considerable time. I see it a symptom of the fact that demon armies were generally originally designed to work together. That's why Khorne has the artillery because you didn't need 4 artillery models; you'd just bring Khorne in your Chaos Demons army. Now that they stand alone there's room in each one for more demonic units that have simply not had design/production slots to come through. With most having fairly complete human and leader roles and fairly modern plastics in most slots I think the field is ripe that the next time AoS demons come into the light for updates we might well see new demonic monsters. Perhaps new fliers, new monsters, new artillery, new creatures and more. Heck knows the lore has more than enough room for each god to have a whole host of variety in those slots. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
