The Borumancer Posted October 11, 2023 Share Posted October 11, 2023 One of the beetles has a symbol that resembles Alarielle/Lady of Vines but what about the other? It has a similar symbol but with "horns"... If I have to bet about the Sylvaneth preview, I would do it for a new Kurnoth Hunter heroe as aspect of Kurnoth or some kind of champion/herald of him. As such Lady of Vines is the daughter of Alarielle and her right-hand, this new Kurnoth champion could be a mirroring heroe for Kurnoth and Kurnothi aspect of the faction. Also, this character could lead a new Army of Renown with a Kurnothi theme, with rules for Kurnoth Hunters, Arch-Revenant and Treelords. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fits both the Era of the Beast that the forest spirits would manifest more hunters to take down the beasts & rampaging incarnates with a “brother” to the Lady of Vines demigoddess and be a great narrative boon for the Dawners in Ghyran having supernatural trackers like that to aid them pushing Order into enemy territory. It’d be cool if we’d also get smaller hunter spirit-hybrids based on the Kurnoth Hunters to help round out the other Revenants with a halfway between the stoic tree-revenants & crazy spite-revenants. There’s a lot of creative art commissions for other varieties of Soulbound Sylvaneth and more Ghur-flavored exotic tree people could really be great going forward with the Excelsis Dawner narratives Cubicle7 are working on. 4 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chocobos, tonberrys, bombs, moogles etc. Final fantasy tactics on a tabletop. Cant wait to see what they have in store for this reveal. Besides Kurnothi i dont have a clue. Hoping for an updated roadmap at least. Would live to know how many books we are getting. Also, when would they announce 4th edition?

Leylines getting smashed by Thrugg could be a point of interest for them as they need to "mend" the realms. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tonhel Posted October 12, 2023 Share Posted October 12, 2023 I hope that if there is a Sylvaneth / Kurnoth release that it will build more on the aesthetics that Skaeth's Wild Hunt introduced. I would be a bit disappointing if it is indeed somekind of treeman or tree/aelf hybrid in a box with Kurnoth hunters. A pure Wood Elf theme with some AoS flavour would also be nice. New Wanderers, but I guess that's just wishlisting. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I understand that Kurnothi is essentially just a religion so any kind of Sylvaneth can be Kurnothi. I perfectly happy for a new Kurnothi subfaction to include Kurnoth Hunters and other existing minis but what does that mean for new minis? These previews almost never talk about rules so there is definitely at least one new mini on the way. Does this mean that new Kurnothi will have nothing that sets them apart aesthetically? Right now there are three varieties of Sylvaneth. Tree people (Treemen, Kurnoth Hunters, Dryads etc), Tree/Aelf hybrids (Alarielle, tree revenants, gossamid archers etc), and outcasts (Drycha and spite revenants). I was hoping we would see the new Kurnothi minis add a fourth aesthetic that tiptoes the range back towards its wood elf origins. Even if they don't do that, I hope whatever comes for Kurnothi does do something interesting with the aesthetics of the range. I think the bugs on the promo pic and whitefangs trophy emoji on the comment re more bugs could probably lead to the theory that we will see something like a giant bug in the same vein as the giant pig or even a hero on bug. Could be a herald of Kurnoth as a redesigned Wild rider? 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Based on the Book 2 lore I would expect something from the Tree/Aelf group that you mentioned. I think Kurnoth/ Kurnothi have the same problem that Valkya lately. Too much mentions leading to expectations that won't be met. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jagged Red Lines Posted October 12, 2023 Share Posted October 12, 2023 Lol imagine after all the rumours and nudges toward kurnothi we just end up with some insects or terrain. Kurnothi are the new 'bretonnian stormcast'. Expectations of the community miles away from the reality. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems it could just be a tree character with loads of Kurnoth Hunters in a box. That's not what I call a Kurnothi release like we thought that would happen when the Underworlds Skaeth the Wild Hunt was released. ;-). Than it is just an extra character for Sylvaneth.
