Chikout Posted October 12, 2022 Share Posted October 12, 2022 Ok. After looking at the rumour engines, I'm calling it now. Next year we are getting fairly sizable updates, as in at least Sylvaneth sized, for Seraphon and FEC. This year has been a bit of a dud minis wise to the extent that I've put my money into non gw minis for the first time in a long time. Next year, however, is looking a lot more promising even if it is a 40k new edition year. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, there are some possible FEC rumour engines that have been around since before the original Cursed City release. Plus the whole faction is, like, 5 kits. If they were to redo the basic ghouls and crypt guys, that could shake up the look of the faction a lot. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But they are spread around by some of the most high level rumormongers in the entire warhammer community. Btw, they can still miss the mark, but that's why they talk about rumors and not facts.

Im also hoping for a range refresh for BOC in 2024 and a Gloomspite Wave 2 next year. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not completely set in stone that 10th edition is next year but it would be a major surprise if it wasn't. GW also just announced their new 40k campaign series which looks just like psychic awakening and Broken Realms. Personally I think they should move everything to a 4 year cycle but I don't see that happening any time soon. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warcomm are now saying “later this month”. That’s probably October 31st. More than 120 days since the last scroll when they are meant to be quarterly. Also means that the next quarter will be less than 90 days. Does the next scroll have a short life span? Will there be one at all? Will we abandon the quarterly schedule and just push one out sometime between 80-120 days after the last one?

Answers on a postcard Personal feeling is that next "battlescroll" is just the end of the year points update. So the schedule would look like: GHB (summer) - battlescroll (autumn) - point updates (winter) - battlescroll (spring). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the upcoming Battlescroll will be mainly points adjustments, but I believe they are now also giving themselves the option to adjust rules as well. So we might still see some tweaks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
novakai Posted October 12, 2022 Share Posted October 12, 2022 (edited) I mean we always hype about the battlesroll only to end up disappointed in the end. Even if they are aware of the problem historically they have not made any sweeping changes for underpowered army for them to really be fixed. And some point you just need you new book Edited October 12, 2022 by novakai 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, though I do feel the votann nerf was both premature and heavy handed. Also I dislike that a handful German TO had such power to force that change before the actual release happen. though my comparisons would be between Gitz and Imperial guard where at some point all the online update can’t really fix you and you need a total overhaul to play in the edition.

HorticulusTGA Posted October 12, 2022 Share Posted October 12, 2022 Well I for one was pretty disappointed with the Warcry Monday reveal, but at least we learned : Chamelons Skinks are not "wild beasts" like Furies and Raptoryx but a true, new Warband (probably with a Kroxigor or Saurus looking at current Rumor engines). There will apparently be new Gnarlwood terrain in the box (and not a reprint of the - admittedly very nice - exact same terrain like Kill team got + an accessory sprue). I still wish we got more news but I guess it'll come closer to the "End November" release slot... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

madmac Posted October 12, 2022 Share Posted October 12, 2022 GW is cranking out the Underworlds previews this week, which means it's very likely that's the next thing to go on pre-order. Warcry is probably about a month out so they're going to milk it slowly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It does confirm there's a Battletome for Ogors in the release schedule (last paragraph of article) . I know we've speculated about it here a lot, but this is the first positive confirmation I think I've seen from GW. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I've been following the Votann chat on Bolter and Chainsword and it does seem pre nerf the Space Dwarves had rules which meant certain units could dish out tonnes of unblockable mortal wounds. The feeling seemed to be it was broken rather than just super over powdered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
