SilentSentinel Posted August 19, 2023 Share Posted August 19, 2023 The wait for Nova feels like an eternity. I imagine we'll see all of the new destruction stuff revealed if they're set to release mid-late September. Beyond that, I'm hoping we get something for FEC as well, at least a teaser of some kind. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SilentSentinel Posted August 19, 2023 Share Posted August 19, 2023 Looks like GWs Nova preview is actually on the 30th rather than 1st or 2nd of September according to the Nova website, which means slightly less time to go! 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chikout Posted August 19, 2023 Share Posted August 19, 2023 My expectations for Nova are the Ironjawz for AoS, the marines for 40k, the scouts Vs scorpions kill team box and at least a tease of the next Underworlds starter. Maybe the new assault marines for Heresy. Something for Legions Imperialis (possibly a primarch) and small chance of seeing some Kurnothi or Ogors for Warcry. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because is an Orruk Warclans Vanguard and we have a lot of Vanguards that have 0 synergies or very weak, and of course, It is the box for the whole book like the Gloomspite Vanguard. That type of boxes tries to be a point to start a faction but they are bad to build an army buying multiple of them. Vanguards have a different phylosophy than Start Collecting boxes.

Yeah, for all intents and purposes they are still 3 separate armies, just forced together into one battletome. Especially with this recent Ironjawz push, where they're specifically labeling the models as part of Ironjawz instead of Orruk Warclans.

Even with the new scrolls they don't crack the top 5 in terms of size. If anything I expect GW to introduce more soup times over time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they don't change the Ironjawz rules and most of the old warscroll we are gonna see more the new units on BW than on Ironjawz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah but with mixed Vanguard, you create a box that has 0 synergy and mostly is a very bad start for players. Like for example the Slaanesh Vanguard is 100% mortals and it's not mixed demons/mortals... With a mixed subfaction Vanguard, what will beginner Warclans players play ? Big Waaagh ? If they want to expand into IJ/KB, they'll have to pay up front for the kits. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grunbag Posted August 19, 2023 Share Posted August 19, 2023 (edited) We already had a box for orruk warclans that had only kruleboyz units . So a box of orruk warclan full of ironjawz is possible . but if they are going to give a mixed sub faction I hope for Wurrgog or hedkrakka for bonesplitterz , ardboyz and gore grunta for ironjawz and sloggoth for kruleboyz .

Plus the fact that there seems to be a completely Ironjawz focused expansion incoming, indicates that they're at least seeing them as a separate army still.

AzarFreymann Posted August 19, 2023 Share Posted August 19, 2023 (edited) Yup, a mix OW vanguard would be a missed opportunities for GW to make money I think. Like another one said, the Daemon Patrol for Daemons of Chao is only a Khorne box, and it make sense. My bet for the Vanguard 10 Ardboyz 3 Gruntas 5 brutes/weirdbrutes Warchanter/Megaboss/Big boss Ardboy OR 10 Arbdoyz 3 Gruntas/5 brutes/weirddbrutes 1 Maw Grunta But I hope we'll still have choice to play one of the 3 subfactions and a Big Waaagh! I hope some of our rules/warscrolls will be improved (better save/bravery, some wards, tc.) Edited August 19, 2023 by AzarFreymann 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that orruk wzrclan are different from any other army . They are listed as separated armies in the meta watch . In the same metawatch , Gloomspite gitz for exemple aren’t listed as goblin / troggoth / spider separately so they can be unified in a army box . I am not sure we can do the same for orruk warclan .
