This, this right here @Neverchosen, speaks to my soul. In unrelated rumors/news, Grand Cathay Lore!!! https://www.totalwar.com/blog/total-war-warhammer-3-grand-cathay-lore/ And Now GW has joined the fun!!! https://www.warhammer-community.com/2021/09/21/read-the-official-background-for-total-war-warhammer-iiis-most-deadly-units/

Sorry @MitGas, the age of the multiple elf release is over, that is clearly a Chaos Dwarf! All jokes aside I don’t actually think it’s either faction, odds are it’s something death or sylvaneth related.

Least my gods weren’t secretly elves.

The last “rumors” we had for AOS are as follows: 1. Revamped Beasts of Chaos. 2. Spiderfang update. 3. The Dawnbringer Crusades. 4. Actual Chaos Dwarfs (either named Furnace Kings or Oath-Takers). With the Warcry teaser we have exactly…… Ditka.

WHO DARES MOCK THE TOMB KINGS OF LONG LOST NEHEKHARA?!?!?!

Do you guys think GW noticed they forgot to release the Boltboyz?

Rant time! Okay, what we know from this video is that we have the beloved 8 legged monsters coming to the varanspire. The so called “Red Harvest” seems to be set underground, in the various mines/forges that fuel Archaon’s wars. Now some people are pointing out that it seems like Spiderfang are getting shafted. However, in an relatively old White Dwarf article covering Spiderfang it’s mentioned that The Spider God is worshipped as The Scuttling Queen by assassins. In conclusion, it looks like we might be getting chaos spider bois vs Chorfs/Iron Golems.

Roughly 2 hours until the big reveal(s) tonight. What do people expect on the Warcry and Necromunda side of things? I’m not putting 40K because it’s all but confirmed to be Black Templars.

Honestly GW seems like it tried and failed to rip off Lovecraft when it comes to the chaos gods sometimes. It doesn’t help that for the most part the depictions and art of the 4 all make them seem somewhat humanoid. Josh Reynolds really made the Chaos Gods seem like primordial beings of madness by using astronomical terms to describe them. My favorite example is his description of Slaanesh in the second Fabius Bile book: a being whose smile is made up of galaxies and tears in the fabric of the universe. Doesn’t that sound horrifying?

I do t think we were supposed to see them tonight, if you go back to the homepage the link is gone.

Any hint on what the previews might specifically cover for each game?

Would it have killed GW to post a schedule for their previews? They used to do it all the time, why is now any different?

Agreed, they made it seem like we’d be getting a preview of some sort every day of Gen Con. Instead we get a preorder notice and some action figures. I don’t often jump on the GW hate train, but I’m about to if we don’t get something soon.

I love The Transformers, G.I. Joe, TMNT, and Gundam (Ironblooded Orphans in particular) in addition to this hobby. The plastic addiction is a bigger threat then any drug epidemic. If I’m correct today is Necromunda, Bloodbowl, 40K “and more!” Which I am taking to mean Horus Heresy swag incoming. If I’m right about the last one I think it will be something involving the White Scars, because their terminator unit is no longer available on Forgeworld.

On it! Though I wish it wasn’t primaris action figures being shown first…..

I honestly want Warcry to become the fantasy chaos version of Necromunda. multiple smaller factions, upgrade kits, special characters, the whole shebang.

What do you guys think GW will preview tomorrow? My money is on Necromunda and Warcry, with a possible hint of Horus Heresy.

Yes, but for the life of me I can't find that link to double check. Can somebody repost it?

I gotta agree with you two, these are some gonna be some great conversions!

I understand, it's like me bringing up LONG LOST NEHEKHARA!!! or randomly mentioning Transformers. Speaking of which: Also, Dwarf-bros for life.

Better say sike real fast.

*Tattered Sails Shanty intensifies* If such a thing occurs, the real question is what age of piracy will they pull their army from?

Well at @PJetski got a laugh from @Whitefang, who knows what will happen?
