Ok, its been quite some time since I last checked this thread. Has there been any particular interesting news or rumours?

It has been a quiet time recently:

- Big box previewed in a couple of weeks and selling on June 29th (preorder on the 15th).
- Based on the Adepticon videos and a recent article seems we will have terrain and a matt and some extra printed content on the launch box.
- Whitefang Jr mentioned Cogfort, but we don't know if it was a joke or a leak about the upcoming CoS range.

As we are discussing potential Azyrite Scenery in the Launch box, I just wanted to share this video of all Realms Of Ruin cut scenes. I do not play video game and saw mostly "meh" online comments on gameplay, but by Sigmar does the worldbuilding looks good in those animations !

The story is fine, the actors' voices are great (both Stormcast and Kruleboyz, also that twin-souled Magister). I feel the developpers really got the setting (AOS & Ghur) right, e.g. they add little objective markers like KB Realmstone mining site. Great inspiration for conversions and such.

Also, Harkanibus really looks like to be directly inspired by the Gallet / Intact CoS unrealized buildings, and that makes me sad :(

I‘d love that.

There are still a lot of discussions, but for me something is clear. If it is not the launch box, the starter set will have the scenery and the Aqshy/Ghyran matt they mentioned.

If you want to see the whole set of buildings check this:
 



I took screenshots of all of them to have inspiration for scratch-building.

Whitefang back me up mentioned already on February about “ new destroyed buildings along rats and storm cast in the starter set “ and he was serious about Cogfort ! 😉

Yeah. I think they were posted here, from 4chan, and the majority of us thought it was fake as even the same rumour was very contradictive in other bits. It is the same one that said warcry will disappear and be replaced with something Mordheim like.

Uhhh. I totally forgot about this. The key is he mentioned Starter, so IMO this brings more power to the idea that GW cannot distinguish between Launch and Starter and it is messing around the community by saying the launch box will have terrain and a cardboard matt.

They always come from ToW/Fantasy/AoS haters subreddits, content creators or 4chan. They are always claiming that it is for be substituted for a warbands game related to Fantasy world. But it always fail that Underworlds is related to the Main Studio.

So if I had to guess with the 29th as the release date, I think the schedule for 4th would look something like that:

- May 7th to June 7th: factions focus (1/day)
- June 9th: Sunday preview
- June 10th-14th: Core rules + modules pdfs
- June 15th: preorder
- June 17th to 20th: indexes pdfs (1 day per grand Alliance)
- June 21st: points values
- June 25th: spearhead rules pdf
- June 29th: box release

I think in 40k we got the indexes after the box was released.

- June 2nd: Core rules
- June 10th: pre order
- June 12th to 15th: indexes
- June 16th: point values

- June 24th: leviathan release

I've never played 40k but I've done my homework 😁
