EntMan Posted April 8 Share Posted April 8 Aleguzzler/mancrusher/chaos Gargants are a cross GA kit. Hobgrots could be a kit that represents different units in different GAs. Maybe a Chorf auxiliaries upgrade sprue? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GloomkingWortwazi Posted April 8 Share Posted April 8 (edited) Maybe they will just end up being hirelings or lackeys like the stab grots and pot grots? Like a... cannon hobgrot or a hobgrot bodyguard duo to a chorf boss... that kind of thing? Probably fairly visually distinct, better armour instead of scrap stuff or something like that?

Someravella Posted April 8 Share Posted April 8 What if KB become a standalone army and then chorfs are a subfaction with their own aesthetic? How would you feel about that, hum? Do not touch our hobgrotz. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luperci Posted April 8 Share Posted April 8 3 hours ago, The Lost Sigmarite said: (Huffs hopium) Y’know, they could have resurrected renegades and heretics in 40k, they released kits that would actually fit the faction as it was in the Eye of Terror campaign, like for example the new cultists (normal and possessed), dark commune, traitor guard, chaos beastmen… but instead they lumped them together in CSM. Now, STD is a bit like the AoS version of CSM as the Chaos undivided faction, so maybe they’ll lump beastmen in STD instead of resurrecting BoC just how they lumped corrupted humans in CSM instead of resurrecting R&H. It's probably fair to think that a R&H faction won't sell amazingly from their perspective tbf, from what I know, GSC is already one of their least played/popular factions and R&H are very similar to GSC in a lot of ways Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Totally, very popular range for kitbashing. However, I think their sales dip is more to do with their cost to point ratio and model count. They're one of the fairly obnoxious/cost prohibitive armies to players. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaz Taylor Posted April 8 Share Posted April 8 5 minutes ago, Clan's Cynic said: Behold, a rat(s)! Very pleased. I was hoping they would do a refinement and not complete redesign on what it is to be a Skaven and they have done a great job. Think this will be the first AOS set where I want to paint up both sides rather than just one. Now if only GW would send an advance copy to a moderator of a certain forum to paint up in advance (note - chances of painting are slim) 5 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kagutabby Posted April 8 Share Posted April 8 (edited) They're so scabby and mangy, I love them! Also I appreciate them really selling the non-uniform, ragged horde thing. Really great sculpting. Edited April 8 by Kagutabby Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There also the rat swarm pets around them that such a little detail i like since we kind of know they're gone Much better then the nu-liberator and this coming from a sigmarine apologist Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
