Aloth_Corfiser 333 Posted January 23, 2020 Also a Tolkien Fan here I always liked the different cultures of Elves in the Silmarillion - the difference between the Noldor and the Sindar for example. In the Noldor you have groups with more advanced armour and smithing compared to the other Elven People like the Elves of Middle Earth or even the Teleri. The whole story of the migrating Noldor and Feanors rise and fall are probably my favourite part of it all. In my mind many archetypes of "your typical High Elves" were created here. Passionate and driven the Noldor saw themselves as protectors of the People of Middle-Earth in the fight against Morgoth - as hopeless as it was, their military prowess and stubborness kept them afloat for awhile. Their Pride and the Oath led to infighting amongst the Elves themselves - the whole tragic Dimension is interwoven in this set of tropes that make "High Elves" unique, atleast for me: -sort of militaristic - but off putting to others -loyal - but with fatal consequences for that loyalty -pride and prowess - that lead to their downfall 1 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Azamar 427 Posted January 23, 2020 I wouldn’t rule out Tyrion being part of the faction yet- if Teclis is there he surely can’t be far behind. really looking forward to seeing what these guys look like! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah, a lot of data that's currently buzzing around are just guesses. I'm not ruling out anything and rather enjoy the suspense, before the curtain is rolled up.

Koradrel of Chrace 473 Posted January 23, 2020 Ugh, that'll be midnight for me, which is usually past my bedtime, since I am an old man. Better put on some coffee. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Koradrel of Chrace 473 Posted January 24, 2020 What time zone are you in? The reveal is 9pm Pacific Standard Time. That's midnight here for Eastern Standard time. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tiberius501 350 Posted January 24, 2020 (edited) Australia time zone for me. 9pm for us is 4pm today apparently so 1 and a half hours left to go. I’m a little concerned that they’ll just be showing off Teclis and we’ll have to wait for the full reveals at a later date. But I’m hoping I’m wrong.

I would be conservative with my hopes; just look at other reveals like ossiarch and sisters, the first few announcements didn't show much solid Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Koradrel of Chrace 473 Posted January 24, 2020 Honestly, after this suspenseful of a build up, and after us desperately talking our wishlists to death, I'll be happy with anything concrete. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Athrawes 538 Posted January 24, 2020 I expect a teaser video, of artwork, maybe a handful of new models in the video. A full reveal of the Teclis miniature, and of course a reveal of the faction name. I also expect this faction to be Teclis only, no Tyrion. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Koradrel of Chrace 473 Posted January 24, 2020 @Athrawes bite your tongue! I'll keep hoping for Tyrion until the Battletome is in my hands proving we aren't getting him! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Koradrel of Chrace 473 Posted January 24, 2020 So I am naturally going to buy Teclis and paint the ****** out of him....and then I will take a picture of him, tape it to a popsicle stick, and put that on a base. Because that model scares me with the very idea of transporting it! 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Casandora Yellow 38 Posted January 24, 2020 So generally how long do factions get released after they are announced? A few months I presume? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Because that model scares me with the very idea of transporting it! Look, I think it’s time We as a hobby group invested in special magnets to make models float. That’s the only way I could imagine playing Teclis on that base. the only critique I have is teclis’s face. It looks a little alien to me, but maybe that’s the point? i love the light of eltharion, and I am so interested in seeing how that grim ****** came back. And I am interested to see how the Calvary does in game. Their horses don’t look like they have the powerful jaws of a drake or an eel, so I wonder how much weight the rider’s lance will pull.
