Ganigumo Posted December 2, 2022 Share Posted December 2, 2022 1 hour ago, Clan's Cynic said: Miniature Of The Year voting. Obviously the Avatar is going to win, but maybe Brodd can beat out the Daemon Prince for place. Seeing all the model releases in a list reminds me of how little aos got this year. We got crossboos, a couple sylvaneth kits, a mega gargant upgrade sprue and the STD box set. Thats like 6 kits outside of the heroes. 1 hour ago, KarrWolves said: Interesting take from the Miniature of the Year vote: Grinkrakka’s Looncourt is included, meaning they'll be released by the end of the year. That wasn't confirmed until now I believe? They were confirmed for december with the roadmap we got a while back. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RyantheFett Posted December 2, 2022 Share Posted December 2, 2022 2 hours ago, Draznak said: I wonder if GW is not going to make several waves of releases (much like Battle Sisters, Lumineth and soon Leagues of Votann). First wave : everything that is human. Second and third wave : Aelves then Duardins (or vice versa). Eventually the CoS battletome will only contain "made in" AoS sculptures. We can always dream but I think it's a hypothesis that has its chances (even if it may take years if it is true). This would really be a cool idea and I would be 100% for it. Would fix a lot of problems with Cities and allow people to run their normal Dwarf, Human, Elf, or Dark Elf armies solo or mixed. ................. I can also see GW not telling anybody this and when the Human stuff comes out and 3/4 of the other races get removed the reaction will not be good lol.

I chose the Chaos Accursed, which are nice to paint and very well designed. Elucidian Starstriders was released like 4 years ago (2018), they along with the Gellarpox infected were just rereleased this year after such a long time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I for one damn hope you get them in some capacity!! Maybe youll get the double whammy of Chaos Duardin Unicorns, out with the bulls in with the ponies!! They just feel like such an important part of fantasy and world mythology. I think that the best use of Unicorns would actually be either as an incarnate or as a mount for Tyrion but I doubt that will be the case. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snorri Nelriksson Posted December 2, 2022 Share Posted December 2, 2022 (edited) What if the "Dawnbringer crusades" allegiance is a mean to take other order armies troops like KO or Dok? Considering the lore in those crusades participates also other order forces like DOK and Fyreslayers as they are a joint effort to reclaim the realms.

The only way to be sure on GW's website is to zoom in on the sprues and see if they have dates on them. The URL date refers to when the current boxing was done I think.

novakai Posted December 2, 2022 Share Posted December 2, 2022 (edited) Depends, the rule writers have been less inclined to make coalition units and any units outside your pitch battle profile worth any mention of fielding in this edition. what Legion of the First Prince got is probably the best representation of their use of coalition units in this edition (very limiting) Edited December 2, 2022 by novakai 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baron Klatz Posted December 2, 2022 Share Posted December 2, 2022 (edited) Tough choice on voting. Really appreciate the package deals though like if you vote for the Flamekeeper then his Deepkin counterpart also gets it. That’s a nice way to take some pressure off and support the AoS side with bigger batches of votes. Certainly made giving the Thondia set/Krondspine or Lady of Vines & Gossamids more approachable. Also liking how many naval themed units we got between the Ogor captain, Boat ghost and Drekki Flynt. Stormy sailing this year with hopefully better tides(of releases) next year. For me it was Really hard deciding because I did love a lot of this year’s models. Everything Sylvaneth and finally getting the Lady of Vines and those amazing flying archers, crossboos with death note ghost and more. I finally narrowed it down between Awlrach and Drekki. I’ve been on a huge Elden Ring hype kick all year to where after that finally dried out I dug out my old copy of Dark Souls 2 In it’s original packaging and started playing that this month- (been having a lot of fun making a Stormcast “Rustcast” character advance to a shining Hallowed Knight-Questor on his journey to save a Ghyran kingdom transported to Shyish: ) So it was with a heavy heart I finally gave the vote to Drekki Flynt instead. Both are insanely amazing, have all that over-the-top I love on my AoS designs but Flynt edged ahead with his fantastic novel and just in general me wanting to give support to more Kharadron, AoS high technology steampunk/dieselpunk and more high flying adventures in the infinite Aethers! 🍻 ✈️ Edit: on the Dawncrusade allegiance idea I still go with my theory that it’ll be based on 7 major city-fortresses that the Core Book noted are launching the crusades in each Realm so you get coalitions there.(Aqshy/Ghyran Hammerhal-Fyreslayers & Sylvaneth((already can ally)), Excelsis-Seraphon, Misthavn-DoK, Vindicarum-Kharadron, Lethis-Deepkin, Settlers Gain-Lumineth) Edited December 2, 2022 by Baron Klatz 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baron Klatz Posted December 2, 2022 Share Posted December 2, 2022 (edited) Could also be them finally covering the End Times part of their adventure again and connecting them to the Realmslayer audio put to paper. Or hilariously the red herring take and it’s the Ironbreaker and a Karak stuck in stasis and were transported to the Realms. Or just Dispossessed shenanigans in general. Though the salt from Felix showing up as an Hammer of Anvilgard stormcast(reforged dead that talk in archaic languages) would be lovely.

Eh, Gotrek said that quote though so it could be anything from getting a whiff of Felix’s spirit to just indulging in his memories with new companions. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gothmaug Posted December 2, 2022 Share Posted December 2, 2022 6 hours ago, silverstu said: I'd definitely love a classic dwarf force that was its own thing outside CoS, I love a strong dwarf identity and Kharadrons are fantastic I'd love toes what the designers could do for classic dwarfs in the AoS setting - their redo of Soulblight is amazing. Kurnothi are another faction id love to see, i'd hope they would go for "wild elves " as I love the war band and made a few extra deer centaurs from the wild rider kit and they look so good. Happy to see coS get a good revamp and keep their mixed factions though- should be exciting to see what regular humans get in the AoS setting. I also would like to see a kurnothi expansion, but perhaps not as its own standing faction. Perhaps as an addition to add some variety to sylvaneth. Then again im more of a lumper than a splitter when it comes to army forces. I'd rather have large armies with lots of options (subfaction) to mix and match, then 30 separate factions. Makes me wish that the old "Grand Alliance" concept was fleshed out a bit better. I feel GW dropped it early on in AOS and now its just a placeholder index to help sort the armies on its website.

The Red King Posted December 2, 2022 Share Posted December 2, 2022 Completely random thought and I cant remember any indications so far that it would be but what if the crazy stormcast hes been traveling with has been Felix all along? He does like singing even if that's not quite poetry. I don't remember anything else that would support or deny it. Just a random thought.

By old world I meant Warhammer Fantasy, not THE OLD WORLD(tm) Oh, then that’s already there. It’s hard to find since they tucked it away on the site as a tiny tab but Warhammer Chronicles does have the majority of their stories already. https://www.blacklibrary.com/series/warhammer-chronicles-series/Gotrek-and-Felix-The-Fifth-Omnibus-2020.html All that’s missing is their End Times stuff. Being that’s his Fyreslayer axe on the cover it’s likely just a new story altogether. Giving stuff he hasn’t tussled with yet and the Brexit hardships UK is going through now, my guess is Avatar-Gotrek vs Ossiarchs in “Titheslayer”.
