  1. Tell me about it. I've puttied some cloaks onto Clanrats but I'm still pretty sad the 4chan "leak" was a big bag of 4chan.
  2. Agreed! I had very low expectations so every reveal just sent me further and further over the moon, haha!
  3. Me: "Okay, GW. All I want is Tree-Revenant archers. That's all I'm asking for." GW: "Best I can do is Tree-Revenant archers, but with those bug jetpacks you love so much." Me: "I- what?" GW: "Plus dragonfly cavalry. And the Lady of Vines gets a model." Seriously though, this was an amazing reveal and I'm so thrilled!
  4. I don't want to sound desperate or anything, but I'd give a kidney for this to be true. I'm sure I have one around here somewhere...
  5. How funny would it be if this was exactly what it was and you were just leaking it? I'd laugh my face off and immediately buy like, three kits.
  6. This is the truth. My only regret is that I have only one reaction to give. Like asexual, hyperaggressive muscular fungi is just a thing but "they" is strange? Pfft. Okay. I don't want to get this thread derailed or have a mod get involved, but for Pete's sake I think we can all agree that the Mortal Realms is a huge, fantastic tapestry made so that we can paint our stories onto no matter what they can be.
  7. Well I guess I count as an oldhammer grognard but by-and-large I like seeing the weird stuff AoS comes up with. I can hardly wait for the reveals this week!
  8. I believe him. He has a good track record. I have a feeling there won't be much if anything for Skaven based on their near-absence in the Rumour Engines, but if I'm wrong I'll be quite happy. They definitely need some updated models!
  9. That's a spite on top, yeah? Maybe one on the side? I wonder if Verdant Blessing won't become a Rampage ability?
  10. I suppose we'll see soon enough what we'll get.
  11. Mortal Slaanesh models had a number of Rumour Engines prior to their release. How many hints of any kind have we had for new Sylvaneth things? All I can think of is a bug leg that may not even be a Sylvaneth model. I'd be shocked if we got more than a hero model in a dual box. Pleasantly shocked to be sure, but that's the way the Wyldwood crumbles. Edit: I hope I'm wrong, of course!
  12. That would certainly be nice. Personally I'm still waiting for Tree-Revenants with bows like Ahnslaine. It's like come on, Alarielle, you have these woof elf souls and you're not gonna give them bows?
  13. It was the same with the Idoneth book. Bloodthirsty Shiver was revealed and the sea was falling. It's natural to look at a reveal and say "I feel a certain way about this" - "calling it as it is", I think someone said - but we can't forget that what we're looking at is an incredibly small fraction of the big picture. Maybe the crossbows are literally their profile, a 5+ ethereal save and that's it. Maybe they're more. I'm rather excited to find out, truth be told. Now my theory: What if Kurdoss' faction gives them a bonus to range like Underguts or Big Yellers? I don't know if that'd help them but it seems like a possible (and common) subfaction ability.
  14. I've actually been considering Mor'phann for lists ever since, well, ever since Idoneth released! Extra value for maybe my favorite model in the range absolutely had my attention. Truthfully I may wind up getting some more Thralls just so I can truly play the heck out of some Mor'phann.
  15. Sooo.... A list based around Namarti Reavers and sharks... and Soulrenders... is it possible? Asking for a friend, which is me.
  16. I'm glad Thralls are good. If only I wasn't using mine as Mandrakes...
  17. How long is the turn-around on boxes from reveal to release, usually?
  18. Aye. There's something nice about hitting a meta army in the liver with and army they didn't expect that warms me cockles. There's something about being an underdog that makes me want to dig my heels in.
  19. I've said this before but I was surprised we had an article. "We asked an actual goat..." I love Beastmen. They hit a thematic point in my heart: the unknown terror of the dark woods. Of the unknown. There is a demoniac imagery in their shape that mirrors the goatmen in Diablo I loved so much. My gamer handle for years has been "Gharbad the Weak". But sometimes I think beastmen should have remained a chaff unit for Chaos. Better than this goofy half-life of a faction.
  20. I mean, if GW had someone who was good with Beasts write the article and their advice was actually useful that would have been far more surprising than what we got. The article today was pretty much exactly as suspected.
