They keep making me want them. I need to resist because I know they are going to be solo releases later but urgh... this box calls to me. My wallet holds me back.

If you are going to get them in the solo box, then better pick this one for the savings.

I’m really excited for these Darkoath kits. I also think GW have been on a hot streak of ‘guy on really tired horse’ models:

Pestilence, Conquest & War. All you need to add it the Knight of shroud and you got the 4 horseman of the apocalypse

Ha! I was exactly looking for that!

I think it is this bit here from the Darkoaths on foot:

I would love to but they decided to come out before payday. Hopefully get my fix with Gunnar's Oathbound

 

Edit:Part of why I hope some go in to a spearhead eventually

Anyone notice this from yesterday's painting video? Pretty cool looking map.

If we think about it, the April Fools joke wouldn't be such a joke but a little easter egg instead. Warps tone jewels? Warstone as a hint for Mordheim and Hellcrown to tell you where it is going to be!

that would be a great subversion of the April Fool's Joke, maybe too good!

Yeah the april fools icon of Hel Crown @Ejecutor right

A warcry setting of a former Khorne bastion turn free city in the admist of Vermindoom would be a good setting. Check off all the mordheim vibes

If we get some of the surviving citizens trying to fight for their slowly crumbling city (on terrain based off that) to go with that, I'm a 100% in.

And any setting at this point will be better than Gnarlwood for the 1000th time :D

I guess that's the main point... but it is kinda funny to witness this change of approach. Not very long ago SCE were "totally not SM" and I would bet that any suggestion they should get Ecclesiarchy-like companions would be promptly stomped into ground. Now, with Reclusians revealed, most people are suddenly fine with "fantasy Space Marines".

again I think the main problem is that GW already cornered themselves in 40k for "baroque, gothic hero", which sadly means when they actually use it for fantasy... it's hard not to think of 40k. We'll have to see more of the new kits to get a better idea of whether this is a bigger move back towards SM or if it's only the Ruination Chamber aesthetic that will feel like this :/

We're laughing now, but the AoS Horus may already be walking the Mortal Realms. 

BeLakor? None of the Stormcast fit, which is part of the point of how they're chosen.

let Death or Chaos have their own schism war.

The idea of a full SCE army with just two or three ordinary humans tagging along, though? I can't help but think they'll look a bit out of place.

this is why i'm thinking/hoping 4e will allow COS and Stormcast to army soup a little bit as a treat!

edit: no book souping

Let's join the two biggest order factions together! What could go wrong?

Full on "everything goes" soup would be pretty bloat-y and a nightmare to balance.

A less restricted way to include Cities units in SCE and Stormcast in CoS that isn't just the base Allies system, with thematic rules? Still interesting in terms of balance, but it would be pretty cool.

Don't fret @KingBrodd, I will purchase and post pictures of the completed kit so that you may focus on the Prince/Princess of All Gargants.

These kits are so good it making me (almost) want to abandon LONG LOST NEHEKHARA!!! to focus solely on my Tzeentch+Slaanesh chaos horde.

I know that feeling :P I bought Fangs of the Blood Queen then when the Darkoath were announced I returned the box right away to start towards Darkoath funds.

Go for it. I was just having fun based on the previous edit we had with Abraxia.
