Vasshpit Posted February 21, 2023 Share Posted February 21, 2023 (edited) Iirc when the OBR Underworlds band was released the article stated it wouldnt be the last time we see one of those new big fellas with the ax. As thats only one of a few designs I've ever liked for the entire range I hope thats it. It would be a fun painting project. (Edit) it just says "This is the first time we've seen" my bad.

Im just glad AOS is back in the spotlight. 7 minutes ago, Vasshpit said: Iirc when the OBR Underworlds band was released the articled stated it wouldnt be the last time we see one of those new big fellas with the ax.

The Axe Bloke and Archer are 2 new unit options that could be expanded upon in Ossiarchs and Ill be all for it!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if they are delayed because price hike in march and they forgot to postpone video tutorial 🤔. Also they are on scenic bases. they've just posted a new WHU article on community https://www.warhammer-community.com/2023/02/21/nick-conquers-the-grey-mountain-by-painting-one-warhammer-underworlds-warband-every-week/ with the classic "will be up for preorder very soon". So I'll guess they'll be announced this sunday? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vasshpit Posted February 21, 2023 Share Posted February 21, 2023 (edited) I've never played or know anyone who does so im curious here. Is Underworlds actually doing well and popular or is just the "new models" for folks? I remember reading it had minimal participation at LVO or some other recent big official event. Just curious and not hating. Edited February 21, 2023 by Vasshpit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not 100% because I'm not super involved in its gaming scene but I believe it has a decent and steady player base that are enjoying the variety of formats available now. It might be bigger here in the UK because of market differences, or because that top level of play isn't drawing much interest right now it might have had a smaller turn out at LVO. 2 hours ago, Matrindur said: Over on Bolter & Chainsword there is a new person leaking about 10th edition right now but the interesting bit for us is that he also said there will be a new Ossiarch Bonereapers character previewed on one of the next Mondays.

Someravella Posted February 21, 2023 Share Posted February 21, 2023 I believe thay next warcry warband will be Stormcast vs Kruleboyz, similar to the treatment necrons receives this edition (Basic box plus two KTs, I think).

Vasshpit Posted February 21, 2023 Share Posted February 21, 2023 @Someravella Late to the party but salute your enthusiasm. Geedubs stated that all warbands for warcry would be new and not upgrade sprues as well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is Underworlds actually doing well and popular or is just the "new models" for folks? I remember reading it had minimal participation at LVO or some other recent big official event. Just curious and not hating. It was doing well pre-Covid, at least around my neck of the woods. It had garnered a reputation was an affordable, fun to play, well-balanced (for GW) competitive game with Beastgrave. Then the pandemic happened, which kind of killed a lot of the momentum, during which time the new warbands and next edition saw pretty hefty price rises. When the warbands were around £15 and the seasonal boxes were £30 people were happy to give it a try. Now they're floating around £26/£60, it started tanking and has never really pulled itself out of the muck 'post'-pandemic. It didn't help that Kill Team '21 has seemingly stolen it's thunder with GW-only skirmish fans, particularly those after something competitive with 'Warhammer' branding. Like anything non-40k though, it really does come down to your local scene. Some places it'll be thriving, others it's been dead since release.

Just curious and not hating. Imho its more like a boardgame with minis than a tabletop wargame. What i mean with this is that the target audience or playerbase is very different. I bought a few warbands because i like the minis but i have no interest in the game itself. AoS, Warcry and 40k got this covered so far. Just my thoughts on this. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just curious and not hating. I cannot comment on how popular it is more widely, but we used to play it on lunch break at work, as it could easily be unpacked, setup and played in less than an hour in a meeting room. Some people who weren't into the full AoS/40k games found it enjoyable. But, as pointed out by Clan, COVID and working from home killed it off for us. If we start being back in the office more often it might make a come back. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably not. They had similar White Dwarf art for the Open Day last year - might even have been the same pieces - and that didn't amount to anything. Might be they show off new Warhammer World exclusives, since I think it's been a while since they released new ones.

Just curious and not hating. I’d second @Clan's Cynic’s comment, that was more or less the trajectory it’s had in my experience. I’d add though that it did see some popularity with ‘board game people’. I found a lot of interest and willingness to play WHU among friends and family that would be completely absent for main AoS or even more conventional skirmish games. Partially that was the game structure but also the fact that it came off as more affordable and approachable than other GW stuff. Tighter rules too. As discussed, increased prices seems to have put a serious dampner on that interest, sadly, and this was already from a more casual crowd that wasn’t chasing the latest release. A shame, it’s a good game. Edited February 21, 2023 by sandlemad 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CommissarRotke Posted February 21, 2023 Share Posted February 21, 2023 (edited) I could never get the hang of deckbuilding in any game, so for as much as I wanted to like WHU I couldn't buy in fully. Now that the Rivals decks are out I may try again, but on the other hand I have everything I need already for Warcry without having to buy more. @sandlemad nailed it--WHU is hit hardest by these price increases. 56 minutes ago, SunStorm said: I've just received an email to say they'll be refunding the price of the tickets I'd paid for. Nice little surprise for today to find out I'm getting money back from GW. Seems like they made the entry price Free for this event... kinda smells of trying to win back goodwill after the price increase, to the effect of having people spend that ticket $$ on merch inside the event.

Asbestress Posted February 21, 2023 Share Posted February 21, 2023 A new reveal event, a new chance to not see Dawnbringers 😛 Jokes aside, I think we are most likely getting some event minis, or if we are lucky some Spring BT reveals. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
