Twisted Firaun

Build and paint my soulblight force, finish my night lord army, and find the bits needed to convert the Mouth of Mork into an avatar of a Tomb King god.

Spikey Beard Jaws?! *Summons the legions of LONG LOST NEHEKHARA!!!* IT IS WAR! DEATH TO THE SONS OF DESTRUCTION!!!

Jokes aside I’m happy we’re getting the another season of Archer. Last time they left us after he pointed out how horrible everyone was acting after he came back(and blaming it on him).

If that happens your Swoleness, I may have to fight you to get multiple boxes. And i don’t what to fight you @KingBrodd.

Here’s hoping there’s a preview as well(I need my Chaos Dwarf fix and @KingBrodd needs some ogres).

https://www.warhammer-community.com/2021/07/30/what-do-you-get-if-you-cross-a-phoenix-with-a-sorcerer-this-stunning-thousand-sons-army/ judging by this community post I’m guessing TKsons and Grey Knights are next week’s preorders. Also, can we all appreciate that daemon prince conversion? Inspirational that’s what that is.

Nope, instead we are left with the worst thing for a group of imaginative guys and gals: speculation.

All we ask is that you leave the bones of anyone you kill alone. Nagash’s medieval mafia wannabes are being a pain in our non-existent posterior.

No elgi though, they have plenty of models at the moment.

Expand the Beastclaw Raiders with new forms of calvary(and perhaps a snow daemon or two(who says Chais gets to have all the fun?)), and if they raise the Furebelly from a hero into a full faction? I would not complain.

@Public Universal Duardin, if that is the case I’ll rally up the skeletal legions of LONG LOST NEHEKARA!!! And if we’re willing to take the losses in gold and slaves we can probably get @KingBrodd and @Neverchosen’s hordes to back us up in a siege of GW.

But then what will all the unhappy trolls on Facebook and the fan sites complain about all day?

As awesome as both of those sound, odds are GW would never do such a thing: why sell two battletomes when you can sell four?

IN THE NAME OF LONG LOST NEHEKHARA AND HASHUT I WILL DECLARE WAR IF THAT IS THE CASE!!! all jokes aside, I would be rather disappointed if GW doesn’t actually release chorfs after all of this build up.

@Neverchosen good sir, you’ve forgotten the glorious Loch Ness Monster, Megalodon, and the samebito(shark demons!).

I would hope so, after all they’ve been teasing chorfs for Almost 3-4 years now.

The power of green stuff and a good hobby knife.

You’re asking for a grudge mate. I mean, I understand the temptation, but all out rejecting our great bullheaded overlord? Shameful.

Chaos Dragon conversions inbound!

@Neverchosen, I admittedly haven’t done as much reading as I should have on the Islamic Golden Age, but from what I do know it is a fascinating time period. The main problem I see is the religious aspect, do GW make Araby worship the old nehekharan pantheon, or stick with Djinn worship like they did in later editions? Cause I’m fairly certain if they try to use Islam as a base for a fantasy faction, someone is gonna do something stupid. Bear wise I’m planning on basing my Kislev army(when it comes out) on the Ainu culture. I learned about the Ainu from Golden Kamuy(weeb that I am) and find them fascinating. Plus it’s okay lore wise cause the Ainu worship bears as a god(though they also tended to sacrifice them…. I’ll work on it). The fact that they’re also Mongolian/polish as well as Tsar Russian is just icing on the cake. I also play Chaos for the same reason as you. My favorite Black Library stories are ones that involve faith and no one quite expresses its complexities like the Chaos factions. The fact that viewing their “God” often breaks the worshipper’s sanity makes a twisted kind of sense if you have a cursory knowledge of most faith’s views on the gods, who often took on different guises to avoid outright killing their worshippers(heck in the Quran, Allah disintegrated a mountain just by showing his face), and angels were typically just as horrifying as demons. as for Chaos dwarfs, whether they are a full faction or a sub group of Slaves to Darkness makes no difference to me. So long as they have good rules, models, and still worship Hashut I’m all for them.

I agree with both @Whitefangand @Neverchosen on some of their views, and I would like to explain my reasoning. My love for Tomb Kings shouldn't really need an explanation given my profile name and pic, but the gist of it is that I am an Egyptian-American who really loved The Mummy franchise with Brendan Fraser(the Tom Cruise movie DID NOT HAPPEN), so of course I'm going to get hooked on a faction of mummies and stone monsters. The lore was just a bonus. My love for Kislev is admittedly just for the bear mounts, I was born in Iowa City but my father and his family have deep ties to Chicago(and I have lived in that city and it's suburbs for more than half my life at this point in time), and I want to paint an army in Bears colors. The fact that they(GW and CA) have seemingly gone and created a brand spanking new army with great models is just a bonus. The armies I really want to see though, are Araby, Chaos Dwarfs, and Vampire Coast. I think the last two speak for themselves, so I'm just going to focus on Araby. As I have stated earlier I am an Egyptian-American, and I am also a Muslim, so I really want to see how GW handles this faction. I know that in the past they kept the Araby lore intentionally vague(and slightly racist), but I really want them to go all out with an Arabian Nights/Ottoman Empire look. Janisary riflemen, learned magi summoning various djinn to fight alongside them, and Mamluks rocking all sorts of enchanted gear.

you typed this like it was a bad thing.

Not even Tyrone Biggums could find a rumor right now, even if he was high on that crack. Sorry @KingBrodd, we're all dry unless GW busts out their potato cam.

I’m a Tomb Kings fan, all of my faves are “alive” and well.

I'd kill for GW if they brought back the 8th edition Tomb Kings models they made(Tomb Guard, Necropolis Knights/Sepulchral Stalkers, and of The Necrospinx).
