The Rumour Thread

[Goatforce]

Yeah that rumour seems off to me. I mean for a start there are 6 RoR boxes (guess they may be "unknowns"), and the fact that the last book doesn't seem to be fully Chaos focussed given the upcoming and previous 2 books bringing releases for a single allegience, as well as having a massive release for Cities?

Yeah doesn't add up, plus Whitefang of course

[ScionOfOssia]

Yeah, it’s safely debunkable simply because it has too many discrepancies- First, there will be 6 Regiments of Renown. This implies only 3. Next, there’s no Khul, and his ascension has been set up to be the next big thing post DB4. Finally, the Skaven already have a bloody Warlock Engineer, and it’s one of their less ancient models.

Odd but not unexpected

[zamerion]

We’re off to hang our stockings and finish all of our last-minute preparations, but you won’t be without articles to read on Warhammer Community in the gap between Christmas and New Year. Tune in tomorrow for a huge reveal, followed by something special on Boxing Day. Throughout the week, there will be teases for what’s coming in 2024, as well as the result of this year’s Miniature of the Year vote.

New "rumour list" from Reddit:

  Reveal hidden contents

Greetings r/ageofsigmar!

I bring some early Christmas gifts today. Believing any of it IS up to you though.

Book 4

What already has been revealed.

Ossiarch

• Morghast Sunwarden

  • Big Morghast with kopesh style blades and elaborate head, ruined architecture base with corpses, huge blue orb in chest radiating energy

  • 〜80-90mm base

 

Nighthaunt

• Apothecarian Harridan

  • Alchemist/doctor hero (option for mask/skull head) flanked by two assisstants with various bottles/dangerously sharp surgeon’s tools

  • 〜28.5-32mm base

 

 

Dawnbringer boxes for:

• Ossiarch Bonereapers (Claws of Nagash)

  • Morghast Sunwarden

  • 2X Morghasts

• Nighthaunt (Doctor Wickeron’s Mournful Menagerie)

  • Apothecarian Harridan

  • Dreadscythe Harridans

  • Myrnmourn Banshees

  • Chainrasp Horde

 

 

Book 5: Rise and Fall

Nurgle

• Foetid Malignarch

  • Skinny mortal support hero with small Plaguebearer aide

  • 〜32-40mm base

 

Slaves to Darkness

• Kharys, Exalted Spear of The Unnamed Circle

  • Even fancier Varanguard lord on grotesque horse thing

  • 〜100mm round base

 

Skaven

• Arch-Warlock

  • Steel frame around Warlock hidden by cloth, lot of cabling and metal

  • Larger than other Skaven (〜 40mm base)

Cities

• Freeguild Marshal on Realmstrider-Gargoylian

  • Cross between Cavalier-Marshal and big mascot Gargoylian

  • Winged snake-griffon-lizard with heavy fancy armoured commander in saddle

  • 〜80-100mm base

 

• Ironwright Engineer

  • Ironweld support character

  • Light armour, carries a lot of iron and esoteric tools

  • 〜25-28.5mm base

 

• Pontiff-Martial and Sanctifyer-Acolyte

  • Devoted backline robed priest with armoured bodyguard

  • 〜28.5-32mm and 32-40mm base

 

• Callis and Toll

  • Similar(ish) to Warhammer+

  • 〜25-28.5mm bases

 

• Flagellants

  • Lightly armoured, injured civilians/Freeguild with cudgels, maces, improvised shields etc. squad of 6-10

  • Options for:

    • Champion (Aqua-Tender Prophet/Pyre Prophet), which can be equipped with an Unberogen Great-Cleanser, which takes 4 other models and puts them together on a single base carrying a big vat/barrel of liquid or flaming pyre

    • Cult Herald, with big tapestry on cloth on big poles strung around their waist showing a battle between Sigmar and a daemon

  • 〜25-28.5mm bases + 40-50mm base

    • Arch-Warlock

    • 2X Stormfiends

  • Slaves to Darkness (Warhost of Ruin)

    • Varanguard

    • Chosen

  • Cities of Sigmar (Hammerhal Sanctification Throng)

    • Callis and Toll

    • 2X Flagellants

    • Freeguild Command Corps

Seems believable, although the Death boxes are a bit suspect (more ROR that are not Mortarchs?), and it's a bit "safe", I guess (and no Vandus vs Khul?). Would be happy with that Cities wave though!

And at least everything having a name makes this one pretty easy to confirm/debunk by the time we get our next reveal.

I might finally get enough morghast between this and the spearhead box I'm hopefully getting tomorrow if it's trye

Kind of surprised it's Battle for Macragge and not Island of Blood and/or Battle for Skull Pass, considering we're not meant to be far from TOW.

I was thinking it would be doable until I reached the CoS bit. A wishlist imo. I cannot see such a big wave with Dawnbringers.

As it is two videos it would be 1 for the boxing day mini and the other one for the 2024 leaks. So it would be very likely one of the two long time leaked minis for the boxing day. The stormcast or the krule.
