  1. I’m hoping they make it a reference to the old spell! Even if it’s not, makes for a great count as!

    my only criticism is that they could have made it not so wildly disproportionate. It’s chest is a little too big and close to the ground lol

    I strongly disagree.  Pre-painted would be the worst thing to happen to this hobby. 

    I know a number of kids who are under 10 who paint or who started painting then and have developed a love for toy soldiers.

    Don't under estimate these young peeps.

    Hey now, repainting Dreamblade minis before they released unpainted packs was fun for a change lol.

    Okay, okay I'm not trying to be mean about how you guys feel right now. Something has touched a nerve and you've every right to express it.

    BUT

    I mean, "angry that kids get something" is a classic way to seem a bit spoiled. Thinking that kids deserve more respect is different (and  you do express this if I trim away your angry wordy words:

    I get that. I liked the universe when young too because it was a bit different. I was also a bit weird mind you. Aiming at my age group, then, more broadly would have (potentially) attracted a greater audience.

    Some kids might like what we didn't and kids like us might have more hobby buddies to play with.

    People can have opinions about things that are different than yours. Just because an opinion is expressed in contrast to yours doesn't mean everyone is 'rage mode' about it. Way to group everyone together with dangerous assumptions. Lets cool it and get back to the rumors, which is about: reaction to the rumors at hand and not reaction to people having reactions about the rumors.

     

    I am eager to see what lists/ rules have been updated in the new GHB. Hoping the factions without their own book get a little bit of love to hold them over and keep them relevant.

    Hello there guys! Long time reading this post, fresh comment in light of recent events. :) These are awesome times to be an AOS player! Have a question for @LLV: are the new flying mounts you mentioned previously coming with the new wave of SCE this June, or maybe at some other date? Additionally any chance we might see Flying Gryph Chargers as illustrated on the dice box?

    Sigmar's gotta eat, and he loves hot wings. Which is why they are all wingless now.

  5. With more and more SCE releases and them riding larger and larger mounts, I am not sure how they can make free people significant lol

    Also kinda weird how the deepkin have been waaaay over shadowed by all this.

  6. This is all very exciting.

    I cannot wait to get my hands on these new sets. While I am  initially less enthusiastic about the amount of SCE being released (having figured it would be just some heroes and a wizard group), the video of Sigmar button smashing has gotten me excited lol.

    Elemental magics look awesome, curious to see what some of them are! This definitely opens up great conversion possibilities to further theme out an army.

    There’s no need for bitterness, the lord of all welcomes any new followers, if youd only embrace  the cycle of life, death and rebirth ??

    No bitterness, please don't project.

    It is okay, people can be tired of factions constantly getting release after release. Like Stormcast. They could have chosen something other than a nurgle inspired enemy to fight, but didn't because they are pandering to the masses with it lol. It's low hanging fruit.

  8. I am excited for absolutely none of this.

    GW is on this Nurgle ride that has passed its stop several times. Some models look good, but I am very over it lol. At this point I feel like it's pandering, with a little bit of patronizing haha.

  9. Not entirely model related, or a whole lot to look at right now.. Here is a WIP shot of my studio.  In this picture its currently primed. I literally just got done with my first coat of paint, but no images will be up until after tomorrow when the painting is done. Anyone want to take a crack on what color it will be?

    Other WIP parts can be seen in my blog (which was started to keep me motivated).

    So what's interesting to me, is I believe we were told that we haven't seen the entire Idoneth Deepkin range at the Adepticon reveals. Except every picture we've seen so far has basically not shown us anything new. This including the fact that apparently the White Dwarf only mentions 14 warscrolls makes me wonder if they mis-reported this at Adepticon.

    The other thing is that not a single picture has been shown with Mistweaver Saih or Tenebrael Shard, 2 models that already exist. So I think it's almost confirmed that neither of them will be a part of the Idoneth Deepkin. There would be no reason not to show either of them with the Deepkin if they were going to be a part of this range.

    Overall, the battletome can't come soon enough! Looking forward to some of the early reviews popping up in the next few weeks, as this is an army I'm definitely considering as my first 'AoS' army (And by that, I mean army with a new range of models).

    Perhaps they are waiting to make an even larger surprise, doubtful as it may be. Could help explain why no pre-order info on miniatures yet?

    I still thinking Teclis will appear. In the last picture of the text its said they are the children of Mathlann and Teclis took them to Hysh and build a city for teaching magic and good manners.

    I don't know almost anything about lore and don't know who's Mathlann, I think I read it was an ancient god and that the surfer guy is Mathlann's Avatar. That sounds great but if Teclis was truly who created the idoneth, doesn't matter if he passed away and went creating high elves next because now as the text says he reclaimed that souls and took them to be his teacher, and if he took so much effort on searching for light inside those souls I think he would not let them away for second time. 

    And remember Teclis is angry so maybe he likes that darkness now and can twist it in something he likes so... I have the hope to see a Teclis miniature

    I dont think we will get a Teclis or Tyrion model for the same reason we dont havea Sigmar one
