It is completely missing so far in Mawtribes, but there is still the Sky-Titan Cannon and Scatter Pistol which points in this direction. If i remember correctly they were only dumb in fantasy due to inbreeding. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kench1 Posted November 20, 2019 Share Posted November 20, 2019 IF GW bring out a Giant Faction I think they will be usable by all 4 Grand alliances, with different upgrades. The Current Giant fits Ogors O&G and Chaos, so adding Order is easy. Death a bit trickier, maybe a Zombie head, Bone club etc. But what I think would be really cool, and ties in with hysh more, would be a Teclis faction of Giants. Morathi made the Khinerai and Melusai with Slaanesh Souls, Teclis messed up the Deepkin with these corrupted souls, what if Teclis decides that the only safe way to resurrect Aelven souls is to place them in Penumbral War Engines. Clockwork War Constructs powered by the Souls of dead Aelves, might I suggest trapping these Souls in a Gem Stone. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeneralZero Posted November 20, 2019 Share Posted November 20, 2019 I was super disapointed not seeing the (actual) giants in the mawtribes battletome. They sould have been there. They fit superbly. But no. GW decided they don't fit. Weird choice. They'd have been magnificent, especially if they benefit from synergies. I hope the same for the chaos giants (same kit) in the upcoming StD tome. But I'm pretty sure that i'll be disapointed once again.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always assumed it was the clockwork constructs that mine sigmarite as the rumor was it was an order army but it could be Aelves.

michu Posted November 20, 2019 Share Posted November 20, 2019 (edited) Maybe GW finally decided to inform people about their plans beforehand as after Old World announcement they posted what they are planning to do with 30k.

Kronos Posted November 20, 2019 Share Posted November 20, 2019 Just a heads up for those of you claiming and spreading rumours about a Gargant Faction. Please take into account that I’m a sensitive soul, gullible, but more-so prone to grudges. Thanks. also thats a tasty looking Rumour engine. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
willange Posted November 20, 2019 Share Posted November 20, 2019 I really don't agree with the (seeming) concensus that there will a Gargant faction coming up. I mean, yes, they did say some "giant" was coming, but I just don't see it happening soon. I guess it's more of a gut feeling than anything concrete. Also that last little "hysh-hysh" line is just another example of the GW dad-puns. That one almost definitely means nothing which is funny since Hysh Aelves would've been a likely new army in my opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Precisely They announced the release of the stand alone Iron Golem, Untamed Beasts and Chaotic beasts kits, of scenery from the starter (also its future discontinuation), showed the Tome of champion 2019, and previewed the monsters and the spire tyrants.

Blueraven84 Posted November 20, 2019 Share Posted November 20, 2019 They have been teasing light aelves from the start and now suddenly its light gargants, what is going on? Seraphon, KO and Tzeentch were on the rumour list for next books, I really hope they update those armies before making some shiny gargants Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alghero81 Posted November 20, 2019 Share Posted November 20, 2019 We have rumours of KO, Tzeentch and Seraphon all completed before March. A new army in this period is unlikely but the Ossiarchs (new army) did come together with Ogors and a month before and after 3 other battletomes, so all it's possible when the release is just book and maybe endless spells.. Can anyone distinguish all kits from Mortal Realms? I can't see really well the scenery and the Stormcasts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Overread Posted November 20, 2019 Share Posted November 20, 2019 And now the formal release of the Mortal Realms magazine https://www.warhammer-community.com/2019/11/20/enter-the-mortal-realms-in-2020 Basically you get brushes, paints, some free stuff and also a full Stormcast and Nighthaunt army and terrain. Note Currently it seems to be limited to UK and Spain as release countries. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackStreicher Posted November 20, 2019 Share Posted November 20, 2019 I am really getting upset now (https://www.warhammer-community.com/2019/11/20/enter-the-mortal-realms-in-2020/). Everytime there is some subscription model like this it is restricted to Spain, the UK and America. WTF!? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alghero81 Posted November 20, 2019 Share Posted November 20, 2019 I just noticed that there is part of the Garden of Morr in the Mortal Realms subscription. What is that? 5th rebrand and repackaging for it? 😂 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's because GW isn't doing this, they are doing it through a 3rd party company who handle the magazines and distribution. GW just provides the models for packing. The magazine company has restricted regions that they work in which explains why this isn't a global release. GW might also be limiting it because of expected volume of production and GW's own capacity to produce for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Overread Posted November 20, 2019 Share Posted November 20, 2019 I didn't keep an eye on it; it might be that other regions require translation and different releases and that the whole system is staggered to ease production pressure.
