I think these releases are starting to show poor concept. This release is one dimensional “by design”. But when will we see the other elements get attention?
I think they should have split these boxes between two elements as alternate builds at least. While the rate of releases have been crazy, there are so many factions that could use a redesign that haven’t(cities, seraphon) or need another wave (idk). I don’t foresee how they could split this into 3 more releases and people still care about the hammer cows, and their own roles in said faction being replaced by water tridents or wind falchion units
the endless spells are particularly bland, big missed opportunity to make some elemental magic creatures.

By the recent disappointment in terrain pieces, endless spells or lack there of.. I would say it looks like more thought and care is being poured into the old world again lol.
though to be fair neither of the above have ever been great. However, more so recently there seems to be controversy over the design of said terrain and spells being missed opportunities or weak.

I’ve been waiting and wanting a larger humanoid body for a particular conversion for awhile. So I am very excited for this.
Shouldn’t be a problem to remove a lot of that junk and resculpt it bare.
-
I am not so sure about the mage. I can see it with different elemental bases, helmet options and staff tops akin to the old HE mage kit
The archers are different, not the parachute pants I wanted.. but should make light work into some Araby units. Not sure I like the unrefined three string top of the bow.. hoping for an alternative
also hoping for some sick elementals for endless spells
**edit: archers have less than desired A-symmetrical thigh armor/ shield built in

I really like the crusher. Just wish he was a bit more bare (no wraps on his arms). His large form would have been excellent for some versions.
alternatively I like the backstory to the crushers. Wish we could have a more variety of them
-
I’d really like a monster unit (think hydra or Phoenix) that is an elemental force
-
I’m still confused why BoC don’t have raiders or ungors in their warband.
sad to see no Krox in the Seraphon, but understandable due to old models
-
I have been saying it for a long time and wanting it. I hope this is the army that introduces elementals

Pretty lackluster reveal and release.
Hope there are also some new spells/ terrain coming with the books

My hopes for a cheaper celestant prime have been crushed lol
-
Sweet, I hope the Celestant Prime went down again!

Squigs don’t have arms.

Well I’m curious how the support for the system will play out. HH was big at first and saw many releases, it didn’t take long before things just started to trickle.. I hope this means we get to see other parts of the old world less traveled.. c’mon Araby!

Angels traditionally also never had wings. Because artwork was used for the illiterate, wings were used to show that these other humanoids or divine beings had flight or came from the sky.

I’m not involved with playing so I’m not sure if this is a trend or not.
I was clipping some Thralls I was going to model for apart of my cities project and noticed that it would seem most new things are put on 32mm bases. Seems odd that new IDK models are on 32 where things like all the old selves, humans dwarves are all on 25s.
not sure if it’s because they are smaller in scale or what. But thought it was something.

Hopefully we’ll know sooner, GW has done a good job of doing previews when things are “leaked”

I figure most of the Slaves release new models are Warcry models. At least for this wave. One day they'll likely update others like marauder horsemen and chaos warriors and the like.
Oh yeah I agree, I’m just curious about what’s included. I’m sure it will be set up similar to how CoS book is.
id like them to just open up other options with kits that missed on with CoS like general on Demigryph, which could be made with the kit.. just add in an effortless wars roll lol
Things like general on warshrine etc.

I’m excited to see what else comes from the StD release, if it’s real. They have a lot of potential units that span several books.
I also like to see new endless spells since they are quite versatile for modeling purposes.

Perhaps it’s a brush to keep those bones nice and clean

The old high elf archers are great for making middle eastern style troops.
I have a lot from a much older iteration of the project.
I would currently need to find some alternative that’s a better match the scale & style of the direction I would like to take them.
Though I am currently in a weird place of not feeling good about using Hallowheart.

Flying eels seem reasonable to me. A leg chair is just absurd.
I agree, why doesn’t he just make himself have giant legs?
The bone construct thing is interesting because they all have different looks and theoretically they can construct whatever they want.
But there seems to be no real reason why everything isn’t just 1) giant 2) have more arms.

So maybe Big Bois next week? Would love to get on past the blown out Lumineth.
