Between Stormcast and Bonereapers, I feel like Darksiders (video game) has come to life on the table top, and I love it! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlo Posted October 15, 2019 Share Posted October 15, 2019 19 hours ago, Sandor said: Just wanted to share an image of the entire model range i've stitched together. Base sizes are just my own personal guesses for the most part, so if you dislike my guesses, please ignore them. Hope you enjoy and get a good overview of the entire unit range of the army (of what we know). I know people don't like the mortek guard being on a 25mm base, but this was confirmed at the Nova Open as they were on display. Haven't seen it all laid out like this before! VERY cool! Any closeups of the Mortisan Boneshaper bottom? Google isn't bringing up a thing?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Undeadly Posted October 15, 2019 Share Posted October 15, 2019 After getting the Iron Golems warband from Warcry, I can confirm that they do use a 28mm base, which is bigger them.a 25mm but smaller than 32mm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Overread Posted October 15, 2019 Share Posted October 15, 2019 @Charlo the best we've had is from the leak here https://war-of-sigmar.herokuapp.com/bloggings/4134 About half way through the photos. It's not a clear nor big picture of it, but thus far from the leak that and the terrain feature are the only things we've not officially seen in GW photos.

Indecisive Posted October 15, 2019 Share Posted October 15, 2019 (edited) Paint scheme variety would go a long way, sometimes you can't tell how good something is or whether you want something until you've seen a non-box scheme that resonates with you. For example, non Hammers-SCE is something that people like. Edited October 15, 2019 by Indecisive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michu Posted October 15, 2019 Share Posted October 15, 2019 Wasn't Mortek Guard on 25 mm a mistake that was quickly disproved? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look at @Sandor’s pictures again. You can clearly see the size of the Mortek base compared to the Stalkers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t remember ever seeing that, but those NOVA photos clearly show a character on a 32mm next to them and they have smaller bases. Also we have a side by side comparison from official photos earlier in the thread that shows pretty clearly they’re on 25mm. Maybe they’re 28mm if the stalkers are on a 60mm base. But definitely not 32s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nasnad Posted October 16, 2019 Share Posted October 16, 2019 Anyone think there are any units or builds we have yet too see? Was really hoping for a ranged unit. Either the cavalry or the Mortek Guard crossbows would have been awesome. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tronhammer NZ Posted October 16, 2019 Share Posted October 16, 2019 I was hoping so. One of the leaked images from the book apparantly shows the Kavalos guys have a command ability that adds 1 attack in the shooting phase. Wondering if that's just for the Crawler, or if any of the currently revealed units have non-modelled missile options like gazes or breath attacks?

Sception Posted October 16, 2019 Share Posted October 16, 2019 (edited) Is anyone else surpeised that the soulmason is a generic hero? To me, with the elevated throne, fancy hat, extra arms, confident smirk, and passive pose, the model just feels too special not to be a special character. And imo the hero lineup would have made more sense, as we'd have fighty hero (cavalry), support hero (coffin), offensive mage (scythe), and support mage (boneshaper). Then there'd be three special characters, matching the nighthaunts, with a faction leader, a fighty special character, and a casty special character, one combining offensive and support magic. I love the soulmason, but making it a generic hero really throws off the balance, imo. Plus, while I love the model singularly, I can hardly imagine running multiples of it.

Overread Posted October 16, 2019 Share Posted October 16, 2019 He might well have started life as a character and then become generic later. As for running more than one its really hard to say at present since we don't know the rules nor points. At present we only know that he might well be good for supporting the artillery which suggests you might well only need one of him in a supporting role.

Obviously the Battleline unit as well. I think I'd pretty much skip completely on the cavalry though. Oh and another must have would be lots of proper skulls, a hobby knife and greenstuff...
