The novel has been delayed to March, so i would say that given that we have two "slots" of releases per month, the first in March will be for Drukhari and the second for BR and the new Lumineth wave.

So I expected BR: Teclis and a whole new range of Lumineth miniatures (Windchargers, Lord regent in dual kit, Fox spirit and "wind/cloud mages") but seeing those blademasters in the video...The mere possibility of bringing the glory of Hoeth back to the tabletop makes my wallet tremble.

Could it be that we are getting a new "Mordheim" type of game instead of WH Quest?

So no Warcry reveals, but I guess that the "mistery box" is going to be the Warhammer Quest game?

Dead: vampires, Divine: Lumineth + possibly Custodes/SoB codex in April?

Seraphon Underworlds warband + Lumineth (Celennar) + Death (Shyish) coming soon?

Sorry for the slight off-topic in regards to the best sculpts, but I remembered that the new Lumineth novel is scheduled for February, which could tie with a new Broken Realms book and the "Wind-temple" miniatures. We are also getting a Stormcast novel soon, so perhaps the anniversary model could actually be one of them. https://www.warhammer-community.com/blacklibrarycomingsoon/

https://www.warhammer-community.com/blacklibrarycomingsoon/ Stormcast novel in January, Lumineth in February. Previous BL novels aligned almost perfectly with releases, so...Broken Realms: Teclis in Feb? (Alongside some sweet Blademasters of definitely not Hoeth?).

It can be my bias, but I think (and I love) that these mortals of Slaanesh look like the dark side of the Lumineth. This guy has a helmet that could easily fit with the Alarith... In any case, stunning miniaiture. Can't wait to see the rest of the range!

Yup. She is also holding what looks like a "runic stone" in those cards, and somebody noted that it looks like one of the Aelementiri discs that Teclis has on his belt, so it looks like a "loreseeker"-"loremaster" (Champion of the new "swordmasters of hoeth?") is the way to go with her.

New article on Wh community raises some questions about the swordmaster. She seems to be able to "channel the wind" and "channel the river" (The wizard "channels the zenith"). Wonder if Aelementiri can belong to two temples at the same time?

https://www.warhammer-community.com/2020/12/02/watch-jakkob-bugmansson-spread-holiday-cheer-and-holiday-aethershot/ Found this video oddly cute. Made me think of "Klaus", but with more weapons. I don't think that there are any hints of future releases here, but I found strange that the Lumineth warrior gets what looks like a Leviadon (and a chariot?) and that the Fyreslayer gets a KO ship.

The text from the first card (and what can be read in the last one) seems to support this theory,

Amongst the "character cloths" that GW is selling for Christmas there is one for Neferata. Unless there has been something related to her that I am not aware of, could this be a further nod to a vampire army next year?

I really love this part of the hobby. The speculation, the wishes and the predictions before the next "big event"...Almost as fun as the process of actually building your army, tbh. As for my predictions, I broadly agree with you, but with some twists: Broken Realms: Morathi Broken Realms: Gordrakk -> Miniatures for Orruks and Ogors. Siege and fall of Excelsis. Broken Realms: Alarielle -> Miniatures for Sylvaneth, Nurgle and...Skaven? As somebody has said before. Fight in the realm of life. Broken Realms: Teclis -> Mounted hero/new unit for Lumineth in fight across realms to prevent return of Slaanesh. Broken Realms: Mannfred -> New Army, reinforcements in the 8 points against Archaon? Broken Realms: Slaanesh -> Breaking free and leading to the release of Third Edition, where Malerion appears. So looking forward to read the lore in Morathi.

I would love this to be a part of a new Maneaters kit. They are a really cool "idea of unit" with no matching rules, so new miniatures, possibilities of conversion and possibly a revamped warscroll in a future Broken Realms book would be fantastic.

Page 46 of that index shows a big spoiler, I would say Edited as I saw that there is a third act after that. Looks very promising! I am seriously considering to buy it.

According to the webstie (https://ageofsigmar.com/broken-realms/) we are getting rules for DoK, Idoneth, Stormcast, Cities of Sigmar and Slaves to Darkness. Very curious to see how this story goes. Expanding on this, it seems like: -Rules for Morathi with both forms at the same time. -Two new CoS with...more focus on old dark elves? -New batallions for Stormcast -Batallion and allegiance abilities for StD -Idoneth Batallion + new warscrolls for allopexes, leviadon and eidolons

I would love to have Broken Realms for the first week of November, but I have been looking at the Black Library releases and my prediction is that this weekend we are going to get the Deatwatch Supplement (as it would align with their novel, on pre-order for the 31st of October) and probably some of the missing Marines units from the codex (praying for some bladeguard veterans). Then, I would not be surprised if next week is Broken Realms, then Codex again and finally Blood Bowl with the battleforces.

More than another faction, I think that Tyrion will probably come as an "expansion" for the Lumineth, like the chambers of the Stormcast.

Loving the rules. I especially like the idea of placing my pikemen as a proper phalanx, and those sunmetal weapons are looking really good. It is sad (From the answer of Wh community posted above and the fact that the two sub-factions that they have previewed are both Teclian) that it seems that this release is going to be exclusively Teclis-based. However, this phrase at the end of the article gives me hopes: We’ve just scratched the surface of what a Lumineth Realm-lords army can do – just wait until you factor in a vast suite of artefacts, unusual and powerful warscrolls, allied choices and more! I think that it is very plausible that we will be able to ally with, at least, all of the old High Elves miniatures (Phoenix Temple, Sisters of the Watch and Shadow warriors, if i recall correctly?) and possibly with other aelven factions to give more versatility to the army. I would love to have a batallion of "Sons of Teclis" with shining phalanxes holding the line and Caledor princes turned into Eels' riders acting as the hammer. Let's see.

So, as it was said, with the WD coming out on the 26th/27th, the fact that almost everything from the reveals (except specialist games and Pariah) is already out and that we haven't had any AoS news in weeks...do we re-start the wheel of hope for this weekend or do I finally give up and buy some Idoneth Deepkin to make this long wait easier 😛 ?

An alternative (and optimistic) point of view: they have previewed everything revealed at LVO and most of the things from the first online preview. With, theoretically, 4 weeks to go before the preorder of 9th edition, there should be a slot for Pariah (next PA book) and then what is left from the previews: Lumineth, Blood Bowl and Scions of the Flame. My bet is on next week.

This is really interesting. I have been thinking that, perhaps, some of those champions can act not only as leaders of their units, but as hero options on their own. For example, with the Sanguinary Guard in WH40K, you can turn one of the 5 miniatures into an "ancient", which is a character, and not part of the unit. This would solve the problem of few warscrolls and allow for some cool conversions of said champions to make them look as characters, instead of leaders of their units. However, given that unit sizes in AoS are less flexible than in 40K (So if you take 1 warden out of your unit of 10 you are effectively handicapping yourself without any reduction in points) , I don't think that this is going to be the case, but would love to see it.

What I can't understand is the complete lack of articles/information not only on the Lumineth, but on AoS in general. I play 40k, and I love it, but even though you are releasing the new edition soon, shouldn't they, at least, save a couple of the 15/16 articles they upload per week to give something to players from their other main game?
