Celestantpants Posted August 22, 2021 Share Posted August 22, 2021 Nos, the thing is, if the battletome where coming out for pre order next week they would have announced them today. They didn't, as far as i can tell. Their preview of what to expect for next weekend didn't have it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the first time I can think of GW missing a pre-order date without any explanation. Did we all dream that they said pre-orders in August? App is delayed - I suspect. Mad tying in a digital and phyiscal release like this. My guess is Kill Team and the tomes were swapped out for each other, due to this delay. Pure guesswork tho.

KingBrodd Posted August 22, 2021 Share Posted August 22, 2021 Damn GW dropping the ball it would seem. You cant say an item is up for Pre Order in August if you mean it will be Previewed to be Pre Ordered in August. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So the earliest possible pre-order date for the new battletomes is September 4th. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This time they directly mentioned “greenskin goodness” so it looks like we’ll be seeing Warclans terrain and endless spells. Then, it’s a definitely gonna be a pre order for next week, and not a moment too soon. Sometimes you really gotta wonder whatever they were thinking in leaving a literal 3 month gap. "More Greenskins goodness" just means stuff related to Warclans. Given how they stretch these things out, it's as likely to be a snippet of text from the BT saying that not all Kruleboyz live in swamps or something equally as fascinating I'd love some Endless Spells- Foot of Gork plz- but since Teclis sealed the Necroquake I've sorted taken that as the macguffin that means its not going to be as much of a thing.

The battletomes have a code in then to unlock rules in the app. Almost certain they are delaying the book until the app is ready. And probably the same company doing wh+ app and aos app, so ones gotta wait. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scurvydog Posted August 22, 2021 Share Posted August 22, 2021 This is becoming a joke. So incredibly frustrating... will be impossible to get done in time for October event I signed up with Stormcast... Who in their right mind would have believed the battletome would not be out in time for that... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
