We'll give them the classic models then ! All of them !" "But sir, even the metal ones ?" "I said all of them !"

Public Universal Duardin Posted April 30, 2023 Share Posted April 30, 2023 3 minutes ago, Twisted Firaun said: Congratulations @Public Universal Duardin for your army of choice (besides the obvious one) being reborn with a great hero/commander leading the charge. Inshallah one day we shall have the demonic engines of doom leading the charge in both TOW and AOS, but until then we can convert the Dawnbringer an into new knights of Bretonnia….. To be a Chorf fan is one of patience and scouring ebay listings 🙏 But Bretonnians were my original love whose litanies of heroism included battles against cannons of dwarfs, chariots of Nehekhara and hordes of goblins (that is, the armies my brothers and friends owned). In the golden days of yore when the floor became a meadow of clover, styrofoam pieces walls the cowardly enemies of the Lady cowered behind and overturned Coke cans towers for heroes to duel on top. So seeing a new knight is, well, absolutely fantastic 😁 The Dawnbringer knights do open up some really interesting conversion ideas 👀 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gotz Posted April 30, 2023 Share Posted April 30, 2023 So... They say that they'll focus on armies that are active during the period and the geographic area, but existing 8th ed armies will have rules support, so... What we can expect in each category? Supported - Empire / Kislev - Bretonnia - Tomb Kings - All chaos flavours - Vampire Counts - Orcs and Goblins - Dwarves - Wood Elves Not Supported - Dark Elves - High Elves - Ogre Kingdoms - Lizardmen I'm not sure... Looks like except Lizardman all 8th ed factions could be supported... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm pretty sure I saw a High Elf emblem on the map shown in the stream, they could probably represent local enclaves/merchant district elves. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marcvs Posted April 30, 2023 Share Posted April 30, 2023 Oh https://twitter.com/PrinceofBielTan/status/1652670382250373127 "In the Q&A they have said for now there will be no starter set. This game is assumed not to be your first wargame and as such it will not have the same style of launch as the Horus Heresy." 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jefferson Skarsnik Posted April 30, 2023 Share Posted April 30, 2023 (edited) Hmm that's interesting. I probably wouldn't have bought a Brets vs Tomb KIngs starter set just to have sell most of the models on Ebay anyway, but I'd have been interested in one that was basically a big Empire army box, especially if it came with some Old World terrain. If they're making the rules and the models available then sure whatever that'll do Edited April 30, 2023 by Jefferson Skarsnik Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Brotherhood of Necros Posted April 30, 2023 Share Posted April 30, 2023 I heard that the small 20mm squares were going up to 25mm squares but was there any info on bases sizes beyond that? I’m specifically asking after saurus warriors and slann. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blueraven84 Posted April 30, 2023 Share Posted April 30, 2023 Anything about lizardmen? I can see no starter box if they go heavy with resin models as those have never been inside starters? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just that every 8th ed army will get rules for TOW, Bretonnians and Tomb Kings are just the first to get new stuff and the Old World itself will be the focus to begin with for new kits. And honestly part of me is kind of fine there's no starter. They mentioned start collecting/vanguard boxes so that gives a little more flexibility in what I buy for it Edited April 30, 2023 by EonChao Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's because most people interested in TOW already have (sometimes quite big) collections from the days of WHFB. Following that logic, GW has decided a starter set would be superfluous since who would buy a starter when so many people already have minis ? This will make the game hard to access imo. Which I feel like the WHFB fans would like. You don't even need to gatekeep on the internet and in clubs now that you can't pass via a starter to start playing the game ! 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
