01rtb01 Posted March 27 Share Posted March 27 Work, family, university work and the fact I haven't bought a copy yet. Sorry if my schedule doesn't fit everyone else's but it's not much to ask for. It is a rumour thread, not a spoiler thread. 1 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could definitely see Chaos Duardin, Skaven and Ogors being the big releases for this Edition. Alongside Wave 2s for Idoneth, Fyreslayers, Ossiarch, Kruelboyz, Kharadron and Cities. Wave 3 for Lumineth as well. Theres plenty of space and time for all that to happen. Malerion? I think he'll be the big bad in 5.0 with his Aelves joining DOK. Random thought because of laughing whitefang. What if Chorfs are the "Dawnbringers" army like CoS and Malerion is going to be the one to stop them. Edit: ofc we know Sigmar and Nagash cant stop the Skaven and the Greenskinz will be here to save the day. Not because they want to save everyone, but because 1 rat pissed of Skragrott.

GloomkingWortwazi Posted March 27 Share Posted March 27 So, who do we think is the next contender for Official™ Dark God™ of The Ruinous Powers™? Maybe another reason Hashut is up next is to be a kind of mirror to the GHR. 4 minutes ago, Gitzdee said: Random thought because of laughing whitefang.

Danaork Posted March 27 Share Posted March 27 Can we use the Malerion description in the BR Chronicles to make an IA work ? I'm really curious to see what we got. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GloomkingWortwazi Posted March 27 Share Posted March 27 I was just reorganising my Underworlds sets (I know, no one plays it, UnderWHO?, etc.) and it got me thinking... Are we going to lose a bunch of them from the indices (i.e. a good time to drop older ones that aren't purchasable) or will we maybe get some old ones added back into the armies they go with (Grymwatch for example) and update them like they just did with Rivals of the Mirrored City? RotMC was kind of two fold, making them available again so AoS players could get them and new Underworlds players could get them, but also updating them for the current season of Underworlds.

I doubt we will see them. They are updating decks for older warbands with not full faction decks so only s1 and s2. Beastgrave onwards all got legal decks and they are still competitive with new stuff, especially grymwatch 😁 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's annoying having on again off again support for them. I would much rather they commit, or just remove them - but I'm thinking it will just end up like it is now where some are supported with warscrolls (Hexbane's, Rippa's, etc.) and some aren't (Grymwatch), especially if the upcoming Skinnerkin get/maintain support in the index.

You got the Whitefang haha react, you know what that means : happy times ahead the factions you mentioned. And tbf I get why. We already know Skaven and Chorfs are coming. LRL need their river mage and spirit to go with their new unit, and the teased chariots and scouts. CoS has to still get rid of a lot of WFB models. The rest is just educated guesses but like, very educated. (Yeah Idoneth has such a cool concept but is so underexploited right now).

Sometimes I feel I picked the worst realm for my army I think that Chamon is one of the bests realms. Sadly, we need a Soulbound expansion to see a fully developed realm of metal (The Great Patch is awesome, thanks Cubicle7). But we already have awesome hooks like Gholemkin and the ancient ruins of the Khazalid Empire waiting to be developed. I'm still reading Ghosts of Barak-Minoz (a few pages to finish the book), and I must say that it's awesome. One of my favorite AoS books and it reminds me about Josh Reynold's AoS books. It explains a bit how the realmspheres work (hysh/ulgu rotations, there is even an explanation about how Kharadron's count time and space), the death air and the perimeter inimical, but seen from Drekki's crew eyes, that alone makes all the realms a bit more grounded and understandable for the reader. Btw, the Kharadron Overlords longbeards are called oldbeards (because KOs trim a bit their beards). I demand a new elite unit!!

I don't think putting stuff into Legends and bringing it back is healthy for the game. If the Grymwatch comes back some people could complain about the Cursed City heroes, for example, that are newer than the Grymwatch and their "evil" equivalents are being used. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously stores will do it in a way they can get away with that is in the spirit of the campaign whilst promoting engagement. Like if I were running a store I might say built and primed is half a point, painted is the other half, and then if people are struggling with painting emphasis games to get them engaged. But the staffers will know how best to do that 7 hours ago, GloomkingWortwazi said: Regarding the in-store event, my local posted the below a few days back: And they have been doing a daily worldbuilding thing to determine the details of the city, like the realm, location in the realm, description of the terrain, etc. while they build an in store board to match it.

I dont believe theyre going ti be squatted but Im also not sure this is their Edition to be refreshed. Im guessing the single model treatment for them for 4.0 then their refresh in 5.0 alongside Wave 2 for Nurgle and Tzeentch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pitzok Posted March 27 Share Posted March 27 11 hours ago, Ejecutor said: What about Verdigris failing, but her succumbing to her Ghyranite powers in the last defense and appearing later on as a Sylvaneth character? I think that would be a nice plot twist and a cool way to give an army a name with some lore behind it. I'd prefer her to stay a CoS character, orna Sylvaneth/CoS hybrid, she could sacrifice herself to become a tree and enshroud Verdigris in a bubble of magical wood that keeps out the invaders. And when they finally get through wittled down by the life manifestation (Abraxia would probably have to cut through it with her spear, corrupting it) it withers and Thorian becomes immobile, becoming like a literal tree in the middle of the city, being worshipped as a saint and saviour. Maybe she could then spit out a sylvaneth-esque avatar of herself from the tree and we could get a miniature of that (I really want a mini of her) 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

New Sacrosanct in 5.0. For sure! That would be far to much to update for Stormcast this edition, a sacrosanct character or two would be cool to see where they take the chamber going forward.

With them showing off the game for people to play in May, we should be getting bits of rules over April as well as faction focuses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
