Thalassic Monstrosity Posted May 15, 2021 Share Posted May 15, 2021 I don't like to anticipate anything until I've seen it myself but I have to admit I have a powerful interest in Silent People as a faction and will be so disappointed it they aren't it. Having said that, twisted LOTR-style goblins do appeal to me as well. So I feel like I could get behind that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damosane Posted May 15, 2021 Share Posted May 15, 2021 Grimdark live also claimed Brettonian Stormcast and we got an angel, a terminator with a tiny head and a Greco-Roman phalanx so I have my doubts with anything they say to be honest. To claim something Is brettonianesque surely implies horses and heraldry 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shankelton Posted May 15, 2021 Share Posted May 15, 2021 If cruel boyz are true, it's exactly what I'm looking for in an army, theme wise. Greasy, shifty green skins in rusted and jagged armor. Swamps and Mires, which just happens to fit so snugly in with my Ogor army lore as well. Lanky and bigger then moonclan grots. I was a little worried that they would be very similar to the rippa's warband, which I didn't completely love the aesthetic of. Even if the interest was still there. The lore connection to Chaos Dwarves is just icing on the cake. Gives them a grounded, more civilized setting to spin little mercenary and trade stories with. LOTR sized goblinoid orcs, with that armor style from Mines of Moria, is so on my level. I can't wait. Please god let me be able to find a launch box of this. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FFJump Posted May 15, 2021 Share Posted May 15, 2021 (edited) Whitefang specifically mentioned the Hobbit when it came to the new faction. So to me this just sounds like just double-confirmation on that idea. Though having actual hobgobs in the army? Hmm... I still don't know about that, but really hope so. Even if just more mentions in lore, having more Chaos Dwarfs in the background at least keeps the dream alive of new plastic Chaos Dwarfs one day. Edit: Hashut worshipping dwarfs I mean. Not the Warcry ones like the Iron Golem and StD one . If I could get an update to my LoA army in plastic with a real battletome and not a PDF that'd be perfect.

Seemed to spring up at the same time. I found it hard to pay attention to their first video to be honest because one guy kept excitedly yelling over the guy trying to give the information so it's possible I was mistaken Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everything else is what most people were guessing. Well, unless they stole the info from Whitefang, what they're saying now is pretty much what he's been saying the whole time and he's always been right. Just has a name now and a direct callout to" Hobgobs". Seems oddly specific enough that's it probably true. It's not vague references or descriptors but direct names now which is usually what we get the closer to a release/reveal we are. They're putting their names on it too, so we'd know in the future not to trust their sources if they're wrong. Still my guess is the army name is not Cruel Boyz but perhaps the name of a unit. Seems weirdly generic for a name in AoS lol. Edited May 15, 2021 by FFJump Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even when we have the models in hand there may be people who say they look like hobgoblins and others who don't. A piece of info like charge reactions is much easier to describe and share than the aesthetics of an army. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
