Just now, El Syf said:
Technically it is and has always been described as such, so yeah a bit weird that it looked quite fleshy in the video. Unless it's something else that just happens to borrow most of its aesthetic from it, which would be a bit odd.
Actually its first appearance in FW book : Mounstrous Arcanum showed him with the same skin color we can see in the trailer.
And its description was the following :
QuoteThen their cadavers are warped and twisted into inhuman proportions, and they become something neither Ghost nor revenant, a terrifying mockery of life, a monstrous, razor-thin shadow of cold, dead flesh and frostbite-cracked bone, with a gaping maw of needle-teeth and a cavernous stomach that hangs open like a dreadful wound.
So I guess that it's just that since they are Nighthaunts in AoS we tend to think they are, whereas they were not in the world that was

Bit of speculation on my part but they might not have been ready to ship, as I believe this release following so quickly behind the actual box was partially due to the leak. Like I said though, pure tin-foil hat theory.
Which leak? IIRC they were present in warhammer community article presenting october WD so just in time isn't it?
I'm a bit of a compulsive collectioner, I hope we'll get those sleeves one day ?
-
Am-I the only one surprised that based on retailers' listing for this week, the two new warbands does not appear to come with associated sleeves (whereas dice are present) ?
-
According to french rumourmonger FrenchWargameStudio in yesterday's live (which has been very accurate so far regarding 40K and AoS), Fyreslayers will have a new battletome in the coming months.
No information regarding new miniatures though.

Will Seraphon get new models? The saurus and skinks look like they were designed 15+ years ago.
You do realize that's actually literally the case? ?
Many thanks to to all who came here to give some hints regarding what they heard, regardless of the apparently delayed release schedule

That's perfect because those are the books which really need some love. I do hope that Sylvaneth will get something too. Exciting times as always!

I've got september's WD and no mention of beastmen.
I guess we'll have to wait for at least october to see them

Regarding the NOVA Open convention, do you know when is the GW seminar happening?
Thanks for the answer

@Ghark @Enoby If they'll will stick to 4 battleforces for AoS and 4 for 40k they will omit DoK in favour of Nighthaunt. Personally I'm interested in Idoneth, DoK and Nighthaunt boxes. Might take them all. Yeah, really smart since I still haven't opened my Kharadron battleforce and sc, AoS 2 box and blood coven forAoS. Wonder when will my painting catch up with my purchases.
Not necessarily, last year Death Guard and Marines didn't have a box even if they were in the new starter set
That's why I didn't really expect Nighhaunt. But I'll gladly be wrong since I'm a Death player!

These seem to be things that they have been hinting at from the very start but will never reveal which I am fine with. So far some likely Old World characters in the Stormcast faction are Vlad von Carnstein, Valten and Karl Franz.
Why could Vlad be a Stormcast?
I mean regarding what the mortarchs are, it's pretty a safe bet to assume that Nagash could easily "recreate" the missing ones (Krell, Vlad and so one) based on his memories and reflecting one part of his personality.
I mean yes, Vlad was a very cool character during EoT but I guess his soul is too linked to Nagash to be used by anyone else. But maybe I've skipped some fluff elements!

Can't wait for Battleforces 2018 announcement. Wonder wich factions will they choose. If the formula is the same as 2017 i will end up with two or three of those boxes.
Just some wild speculation but I'm counting on :
- Idoneth
- Rotbringers
- Daughters of Khaine
- Some sort of Stormcasts

Warhammer Age of Sigmar: A New Endless Spell
It’s been a great year for Warhammer Age of Sigmar so far, with new armies, a new edition and loads of content for fans to get stuck into. There’s still more on the way in the next few months, and we’ve had our first look at what we can expect in the fall with a sneak preview of a new endless spell:
But who could this strange sorcery be for? We’ll have to wait and see… -

Thanks everyone, for your input regarding DoK and their 'failing', I was kind of astonished when I read that since IMHO the range is great and I've seen many people succomb for the army :p

I've been waiting for it for years, to quote good old Harry "BRING IT ON"

I'm sorry but I keep reading in this page that DoK are considered as a failure.
Maybe I missed something but why do you say that?

A lot of people who hear genuine rumours know people who work at gw in various different positions with knowledge of different stages of the process. Projects start development two or more years in advance and release schedules get decided a few months in advance. There have been some rumours that kill team got moved up in the schedule. This could have had the effect of moving Moonclan into next year. Adeptus Titanicus was originally planned for a launch in spring last year but the switch to plastic caused it to be delayed to August this year. This would move pre August releases up a little but delay those after August, especially when you factor in all the post launch releases for Titanicus which also need to be fitted in this autumn. The rumour engine from the upcoming rogue trader was shown in February last year, so those minis have been sitting in a completed state waiting for a release for well over a year.
There is no way to know which rumour is the most recent and hence most accurate even if we assume no one is making anything up.
Gw said at adepticon in March that there would be new destruction stuff in 2019, but who knows what has changed since then.
Yup, you're right. I guess that after 15 years in the hobby I'm still not used to this way of having a really changing schedule.
Things were easier when we had Hastings and Harry feeding us with some genuine information ?

I'm really puzzled regarding those last news.
Another reliable source here is thebiggesthat who specifically told us about slaanesh and moonclan in late 2018.
Now we have really contradictory information...

I did speak to the rules team about skirmish at the Open Day and the impression I got was that skirmish wasn't on their radar currently because of the amount of work they'd done on the new rules. But we did put across that it was a system we all enjoyed and they seemed quite receptive so it's possible we may at least get a points update. Longer term - who knows. It wouldn't surprise me to see something be done, but I'd not hold your breath.
Thanks for the heads up.
Do you plan on doing a summary of what you learned at the Open Day, like the awesome one you did for the last one ? (again, many thanks for that!)

So 2018 is
J- nurgle
F- custodes
M- daughters

M- Deepkin
J- starter, nighthaunt, Stormcast
J- Knights
A- Titanicus and Killteam

N- rogue trader and Shadespire
D- Slaanesh or khorne. 40k focus
Or something like that with lots of little specialist games stuff scattered throughout and a few miniless 40k codexes.
Space wolves are dued for end of August according to some french rumormongers who have been accurate so far. I'll put SW in septembre and orks in october/november. Appart from that yup, sounds like a good sum up !

Actually Faeit released a price list for those :

Wanderers and swifthawk agents don’t really have a father.
Yeah but the later do have a lot of feathers!... Sorry
On a more serious note, now that the IDK are about to be released and appart from the supposed starter set / aos 2.0 it's the first time in a while that we don't have solid rumors on what next (though I believe Hastings hinted at Skaven some years ago).

Ok I got another translation
1 is ability - re-roll 1 to hit and +1 Damage on the Spear when you charge, heals D3wounds after charging and can charge even after retreat,
2 ability - re-roll of 1 to wounds for ID within 9''
Yup that's it.
And the last one is at every combat phase, you can choose a hero with a wound characteristic lesser than 3 and at less than 3" of the model. This hero and -1 to hit for this combat phase.

And some additional pictures :
You can translate the token as : "Inspiring presence", "High tide", "Low tide", "Ritual of Weathering "Ritual of tempest", "Lord of the Tides".
According to the poster, the BT, the dice and the warscrolls are in preorders the 14th of April and out the 21th. I believe the models will be in two or three waves around those two dates.

The Rumour Thread
in Age of Sigmar Discussions
Posted
They were apparently believed to be released in september but the schedule changed.
And IIRC we currently do not have any precise date for the release of the battletome and the new minis.
