Makes total sense they'd update clanrats even if the models look ok because of course the clanrats would have to be in the launch box - and they're not going to put old models in the launch box! Yeah, you'd assume that they'd want them as new push fit models in the box at the very least. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thorgrim laid the grudge smackdown on him in End Times (honestly one of the few good moments of End Times was seeing the Dwarfs open the vaults and reliquaries, get stacked with runic weapons and take the Skaven to poundtown). However, a spiritual successor to Queek in AoS, like a new Skaven warlord who's actually not a coward... Also thank the Horned Rat new Stormvermin seem to be a thing. I hope they redo the Plague Monks and Clanrats also. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jator Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 Have they really reincarnated Queek? Don't get me wrong, I love the guy, but seems rather unoriginal. Besides, he should be already the top verminlord warbringer and spend his time hunting the souls of dwarfs and goblins for fun. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silverstu Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 Yeah I'd say Queek is definitely a WFB character, this sounds similar but will be more AOS styling which should be cool. I was thinking about the returning TOW factions and how much I missed them which made me see just how distinctive AOS has made the factions. Intrigued to see Skaven get their turn! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, it would be weird to have him coming back, Queek's death is one of the few deaths in End Times that isn't (very) polemic He's like the second most iconic skaven ever known just behind Thanquol, but in the skavendom we're most expectant of Ikit Claw's return. Unless the "new warlock" bit means him, I guess. Edited January 15 by Garrac 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neil Arthur Hotep Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 Personally, I am very much against bringing back more and more random Fantasy characters. What we have now is fine. A few important people became gods, some demons are still around and Nagash brought back a bunch of his pals. For everyone else, just invent cool new guys. Especially if the old characters were just, like, a powerful warlord or something. 21 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is not a normal human, also she leading part of the plot. Has all the chances to get a mini (if she survives xD) 1 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed, people point to kragnos as a reason to use old characters instead of new ones but we've gotten so many great new characters for aos, lots more creative design space than just cashing in on nostalgia. 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe it's just because I have limited knowledge and nostalgia for WHFB lore, but I absolutely do not care about random fantasy C-listers (get out of here with your Egrimms von Horstmanns). To me, when they return, it's like that Star Wars "here is the story of Han Solo's iconic vest" thing. It makes the universe feel super small. 9 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Completely agree except for the suggestion of Queek being generic, bro had a personality, a narrative arc, a friend (a skaven friend!) and all. All that was explored on his novel, but Im totally 100% ok with him staying dead. His story has already been told, while Ikit Claw has more things to explore now that he's on AoS. (in fact, he's the only skaven in AoS that has actually got some character development on the whole setting, lol) 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lmao, that is such a “focused on the tree and missed the forest” strawman(straw-taur?) moment. ”Oh, this new smashy god of Destruction isn’t very fleshed out yet, all warhammer characters have to come out fleshed out & interesting from the get-go with no years of build up. I’ll just ignore the dozen more interesting characters that sprung up around him like the dragon prince brothers with opposing methods & attitudes but united in saving their lost race or the Mouth of Mork with a very unique skill to speak any language which he uses to manipulate both a confused ancient god with a dead language and his own people acting as a translator so he gains all the power over both. But nah, smashy destro warhammer god #45, so AoS has no interesting characters. I won’t bother looking further for my judgement.” Edited January 15 by Baron Klatz 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gutsu17 Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 I personally dont see it as literally Queek, as Queek only has a single unnaturaly obidient bodyguard, not a regiment of them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hollow Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 Not having enough "AoS-Specific" Characters is a real problem for the game and setting IMO. Each of the factions should have a character of note for each of the 8 realms at least. It would help flesh out each of the realms and it would also be great fodder for more Black Library AoS novels, of which there is a severe lack IMO. I really liked how the CoS touched on each of the realms within their Battletome and would like to see something similar in other faction battletomes, not only detailing significant settlements, but characters making an impact there. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Man, every time I look at the CoS warhulk or the gorger mawpack I do get excited to see how their glow up turns out. I'm all for the standard base size of an ogor being a 50mm. 🤘 Throw in some lady ogors for good measure. If it turns out well I'm here for it. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jagged Red Lines Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 2 hours ago, Neil Arthur Hotep said: Personally, I am very much against bringing back more and more random Fantasy characters I like the narrative progression. Look at Eltharion for instance, such an amazing re-imagining of a tragic old world hero. If it was just a new character, it would in no way be as evocative. Would love to see Queek return as some sort of rat daemon prince. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
