The Rumour Thread

First Book we got 4 harbinger for each GA and almost every harbinger point out a character.

Destruction: Rabble-Rowza -> King Troggth.
Choas: Harbinger of decay -> Ruin Queen.
Death: Marrowscroll -> Summerking.
Order: Grimhold Exile -> unknow.

And second Book came with King Troggth as cover with a lot of rule for destruction.

then we can expect one book for Ruin Queen, one book for Summerking,

so there should be fifth book for unknow character from order GA.

Wouldn't Kurnoth fit for Order? 

I mean. I would love a big centerpiece "Magma Matron" for Fyreslayers but the rumors seem to point towards Kurnoth.

I think these new character not 100% same faction as harbinger, but it's same GA.

for example: according first book and narrative preview video, the Ruin Queen looks like more close with Varanguard/Darkoath then Maggotkin, so she maybe belong to STD.

so perhaps Kurnoth has chance.

Not to be too pedantic but concept art can be done through rendering in 3d too, the whole thing involves exploring and building off a variety of ideas and some of that is done in 3d, especially in later concept stages with cgi shows and films to help capture the look and feel. With GW, where a lot of their modern models are designed digitally first, there's also going to be a lot of existing 3d assets that could be used to help with concept work so it makes sense to lean on that too.

That‘d be a mockup. Usually concept art is not at the level of detail of that rendering. The whole reason concepts are made is to avoid wasting resources (like modeling a high fidelity interior with bolts, screws etc.) by setting the design beforehand. 🙂

That‘s at least the way we used it for Animations (and it’s the textbook example of how it’s used)

 

cheers

I dont know why rumour or people will like dawnbringer book V, so many models and behemoths, make me feel 3.0 will be the final version. And dont know why we have to spend more 2 years to wait more models for V4.

[lele]

Well, i think there some hints in Fyreslayers, and Orruk for AOS 4.0, thats about eggs, pets, and guardians. Dont you thinks there could be pets for each heroes and void things for each factions ???

why it would be final version? you can compare end of 2.0,

broken realem boxes

slaanesh and soulblight gravelord overhaul

Kragnos, Lord Kroak, Slaanesh Twin, Belakor, Warsong

looks bigger then current situation for me.

Having a 5th book in dawnbringers wouldnt push the next edition by a year. In fact it wouldn't push it at all.

New edition is in summer so the 5th book will be very placeable in 2024 q1...they could even throw in a new army in between(if fec comes in winter).

Maybe the the Grimhold Exile is not the dawnbringer for a new book but for the new edition army box.

So new dwarf army as starter army for AoS4 !

Yes , I think 5th dawnbringers book is very likely and there is enough room if we say :

November 2023: Dawnbringers book 3

December 2023 : Xmas boxes (Belakor legions,Seraphon,Soulblight, Ossiarch)

Januray 2024 : FEC armyset

February 2024 : Dawnbringers book 4

March 2024 : FEC Full release

April 2024: Dawnbringers book 5

June/July 2024 : 4th edition launch box 

 

I am sure at the Warhammer day October 14th they will show updated roadmap

How can you think that if we don't know the story between 2 and 4? I mean, models can be linked to this type of books, sometimes with just one hero, sometimes with a full second wave, but the focus of this books is the story.

Imho, the first book wasn't needed because GW could write all the lore in it in the second book without too much problem.

He is expressing his happiness at the bright future of the Dawnbringers books by this emoji. With this in mind, I take it as a "yes, there is more than 4 Dawnbringers book".

According to the Whitefang translation database this is what it means.

We know Sylvaneths (Kurnothi) are coming but lack of emojis we are getting from WF is disturbing. I really hope they are in next book 🤔

I got the laughing emoji from whitefang when I asked if kurnoth was returning. 

[bethebee]

ive been gone from the TGA for a few weeks and im happy to see everyone is still psychoanalyzing whitefang's smiley face usage.  i for one believe the laughing emoji here represents the repressed desires of his Id.

Leave him some time to react... Dude can't be on TGA everyday to look at rumours and the myriad questions we ask him.

Another Nurgle named character ? That's cool, don't get me wrong, but Nurgle already has a lot of them. She'd need to be really unique to stand out from the other named cast of the BT.
