MarauderSquig Posted October 4, 2020 Share Posted October 4, 2020 It's odd they showed off nine warscroll cards, perhaps eight if they always have a duplicate display one. I don't recall these things being a stock image so surely that confirms 8-9 warscrolls? There are four warscrolls we know of in SoB and then three mercenary warscrolls. I'm guessing Mancrushers get one or two. It's a bit odd to see Brutes on the cover. Perhaps they're just for scale purposes but I think that hints at some hidden ally mechanics for them and perhaps other Destruction races. I wonder if it's lowkey a Dogs of War Destruction army of sorts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edit: It could be a weapon option for Mancrushers. Edited October 4, 2020 by Dankboss Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if it's lowkey a Dogs of War Destruction army of sorts. i think each mercenary gets it own scroll (judging by Bundo Whalebiter getting his own) and then the vanilla mega gargants get one as well. So it be Bundo, Drog, Grunnock, are three separate ones Krakeneater, Warstomper, Gatebreaker Mancrushers: 1 or two so that seven to eight warscroll right there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moogypies Posted October 4, 2020 Share Posted October 4, 2020 (edited) As I said previously, we also got mystic shield on those tokens. Im hoping we have a preview of something like a "build a warlord" kind of thing, where we can make the leader tankier, a mage or something along those lines instead of relics/warlord traits. Cause otherwise those tokens seem kind of weird placed in the set. But i'm buying all of it, LE tome another tome to use in tournaments etc. Need a gargant community event with like 20-30 megas a side on a big ol' WHWorld Table Edited October 4, 2020 by Moogypies 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only question are Triumphs in form of tokens. I assume we will have similar Battle Trait as KO or LrL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

a74xhx Posted October 5, 2020 Share Posted October 5, 2020 Thoughts: No special dice! I suspect the mystical shield is just because it's the standard AOS set of tokens, and there is nothing else to fill the set. Not expecting a wizard. I wonder if the extra warscroll cards are all our allegiance abilities (which would be awesome). Could also just be duplicated cards just for the photo. Not expecting any extra warscroll profiles other than what was in the GHB2020 plus 3 mercenaries. Two Mancrushers in a box? GW really wants us to buy 3x2 of them. Boxes of 3 would have made more sense. Not ideal for anyone wanting 3 or 9. Anyone think we might get a Christmas battleforce box? Three Mancrushers and a Mega Gargant. 1000pts done. There's going to have to be lots of fluff in that battletome to pad it out. That Imperial Knights codex had a lot of heraldry colour schemes (from what I remember). Expecting lots of artwork and photos and expanded painting guides. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

a74xhx Posted October 5, 2020 Share Posted October 5, 2020 The last Sylvaneth set had 3x4 ones, but most factions seem to get 4x5. Probably just because we don't have that many abilities. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sigmarusvult Posted October 5, 2020 Share Posted October 5, 2020 Found on facebook. Take it with the usual pinch of salt although the prices for the non gargants items seem legit, we might just assume that... I have to say my excitement for the big lads has dropped significantly, hopefully the rules will pull it back up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks to me like the shoulderplate and the tusks from a thundertusk. If that is a gutplate, the gargant wouldn't be much bigger than an average ogor. And "trophies from the weak" is a funny side note regarding the current state of the thundertusk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
