We also have to wait for another Dawnbringer book and potentially another one. I think they will start talking about 4th shortly after to generate hype. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucentia Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 Mm, I'm not anticipating a surprise faction launch at this point, if there are still (probably) at least 2 dawnbringers books to release, potentially more, they'll want to space those releases out, plus the FEC stuff. And then they'll likely want to commit 2-3 months towards the pre-release build up for AoS 4th, slow rules snippets and faction focus articles and etc. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gitzdee Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 We also still have some Underworlds and Warcry stuff awaiting a release. I also expect Dark Angels to get some attention for a few weeks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's why almost every new edition release has a crunch beforehand, all those new unit boxes, battletomes etc that were designed for one edition are not going to get "delayed" into the next edition, they will be pushed out instead. That said, again, there doesn't seem to be anything pointing to chorfs or some other new army coming out in the next few months. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HorticulusTGA Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 I'm absolutely sure Chaos Dwarfs will come in AOS4, maybe not in 2024, but soonish : we have, like Kharadron Overlords since the first AOS rulebook in 2015, too many hints in the background and models like Warcry or Hobgrots. Regarding Beasts of Chaos, they do 100% belong in TOW (both the WFB setting and the current TOW narrative), that's for sure. For AOS, the God-ification would be an elegant solution (PESTIGORS, GW), instead of pure squatting (well I also think Bonespliterz are prime candidates to go back to TOW but with COS, GW showed the squatting could be quite erratic, with then squatted kits reappearing in TOW). But with pure AOS models (Endless Spells, Faction Scenery, Underworlds*, new Heroes, Warcry appearances, etc.) being released for BoC, I don't see them squatted anyway. * Like Gitmob and Bonespliterz you could say ...

Ejecutor Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 1 hour ago, Tonhel said: I wonder why you are thinking it will be a couple of years before TOW will get new Beastmen mini's. We have no idea what their plans are. It's rumoured that each 6 months two core factions get an Arcane Journal + mini's. This summer it seems to be dwarfs vs O&G, than Empire Civil war or maybe Wood Elves vs Beastmen and so on. Who knows, but at latest all core factions will have their Bretonnian / TK update in less than two years. Maybe they will do a HH releases schedule between the big updates, which also includes regular single resin mini releases. We have no idea. But saying that it will takes years for new Beastmen for TOW seems just guessing and more like telling yourself in the mirror that TOW doesn't exist and that AoS is the only GW fantasy game. . That ship has sailed. We have 4 possible boxes pending. Elf vs Chaos, Orcos vs Duardin, Empire vs Empire and Woodies vs Beats. If we get their supposed schedule of 6 months between boxes, the latest one would have to wait 2 years indeed. I guess that's where it is coming from. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But on the other hand, if I were GW I wouldn't be planning too far ahead for TOW. It's a big gamble. God knows if that game is still around in five years time. So I'm really not sure they would have already made plans beyond what's been already anounced. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EonChao Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 1 hour ago, EntMan said: Have we run out of time for an end of edition new army? In theory no, we have 5 months to squeeze a large release into and that’s more than enough time to do so, especially considering FEC should be out before the end of February and we’ve at most only two Dawnbringer books left. But we don’t have any rumours of it, and 40K has a packed spring with rumours of both Dark Angels and T’au getting substantial releases that could easily fill up those months. At the moment it’s better just to be pleasantly surprised if we do get something Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingBrodd Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 +++MOD HAT ON+++ Thats about all I can take with the bickering. Its starting to get nasty. We dont tolerate that here so cut it out. There are other threads dedicated to TOW so take those discussions there and out of the Rumour Thread. 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matrindur Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 (edited) I think its pretty likely there was a new army planned originally since we haven't actually gotten a new one this edition, while Kruleboyz could basically count as one they are still a subfaction after all. Other than that we got many big faction wide refreshes but no new faction. And while AoS has quite a few factions already there is still space for a few more. So I think its likely that there was a new one planned but due to all the delays it would likely be pushed too close/into 4th so they just completely moved it into 4th.

I think It is more good for you if you expect a revamp of the unit design and expect only Arachnaroks as the mounts. This is just speculation, right? I want to make clear, because the way that @The Brotherhood of Necros asked you it seemed like they consider you to have a source. And I remember the last time I asked if something you said was speculation or a tease, you replied "both, always both." (That was that Dawnbringers faction releases would be rounded out to thirteen via: Khorne, StD, OBR, CoS, DoK and Skaven.) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They've been my favorite army since I discovered them! I still have fond memories of mutilating the entire Battle for Skull Pass box as a teen in an attempt to ape some of the conversions I saw on the Chaos Dwarfs Online forum Got some Azgorh infantry, Hobgrots, and Horns of Hashut lined up in anticipation: I've been holding off on tracking down any warmachines in hopes that the CD's full blown AoS army (the first full plastic army the faction has ever had btw) has some real cool new stuff. The Horns sort of ballooned into a whole themed S2D army in the meantime, lol Really hoping its true that they're going to appear in AoS: I'd much rather see them causing problems across multiple realms instead of living in the margins of the Old World 5 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wiuld make senses as they had an outpost in Ulgu and probably 4th edition will see that realm in focus imho. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
