  1. Your stuff is awesome and I'm glad @Double Misfire had bringed it to my attention. Keep at it! 👌🏻
  2. Agreed. They look cool and have a strong theme going on. I'd even say they could be perfectly expanded into their own faction, like the Witch Elves did. It won't happen of course; GW already has an aelven army tied to the sea (even if it's a very different take), but at the very least they should survive ( and maybe updated) within CoS.
  3. If AoS gets ride of some units it's because they no longer fit their vision and want to sell a new unit in it's place. The TOW team can benefit from this, but I doubt they hold that much power when it comes to GW making decisions.
  4. I always trusted you, @Whitefang back me up!
  5. The problem with Hobgrots it's that they don't have ranged or mounted units, and if uyou use other units as proxies you will have a disparring aesthetic for your count-as hobgoblins. You can make it work saying they're different races enslaved by the chaos dwarfs, but I'd personally prefer a more unified look. Regular goblins from TOW are a good option as they have archers and wolf riders too. It should be obvious to everyone what they represent since CD can no longer deploy goblins.
  6. I re-read Skavenslayer not that long ago and, for me, still holds up well. That being said, it does leans more towards humor than the previous book (which still had plenty of it on some chapters, mind you) and that might not be for everyone, specially if you aren't used to skaven. As others have said, thou, Demonslayer is the place to know about Malakai Makaisson. You don't even need to read the whole book, the beginning should do.
  7. Following the theory about the shields on the rulebook cover it should be Beastmen and WE. It could be HE and Warriors of Chaos too, or course, but somehow WoC feels like the right choice for the last evil army as the main bad guys of the setting.
  8. Funny you mentioned Zoats. I have my fingers crossed for fimirs to be included in a Norscan Army of Infamy. Having a precedent on Total War makes that seems plausible and not totally copium on my part, I think. I haven't thought about the zoats, but of course I'll be all for it, and more tempted by wood elves if that finally happens.
  9. I think Orion and Alarielle are the most obvious candidates when it comes to Wood Elves. But they'll need new miniatures to dothem justice if they're getting rules, so if the TOW team couldn't put the resources for that then they won't appear. Finubar, the future Phoenix King, is also travelling the world and making contact with the Wood Elves, if I remember correctly. Great job with the thread, btw!.
  10. Digging more and more the Troll Horde. I have like nine trolls from the Skull Pass box, and was looking to buy some of the old Stone trolls anyway. Should have a good starting point for it!
  11. I'm sure Slaneesh is pretty understanding about the whole thing.
  12. Nah, he was working on it, but had to postpone it to give Katakros a proper beating.
  13. I'm not so sure about a Slayer Army of Infamy anymore. The lack of plastic suicidal stunties may have forced the designers to think about other options (norses and engineers?). I know that wasn't a problem back in the Storm of Chaos, but it would be nowadays.
  14. Yeah, that's my favourite from the whole Adepticon. Also a surprise, since I expected Thorgrim, not him!. But overall I think all the new dwarfs look great.
  15. Apparently they're showing some rules from the Arcane Journal on X/Twitter. This one from the Lore of the Troll Hags.
  16. Yeah, I think the Troll Horde is going to be absurdly popular. Maybe not to the levels of Exiled Bretonians, which seems to be the default Bretonian list nowadays, but close enough (also way less competitive, but that won't stop many o&g players).
  17. I know I mentioned this in the main thread, but I'm really curious about what armies of infamy we will get. Karak-Kadrin seems a given, but they can surprise us with the second one. I also expect to see Thorgrim as a prince, having adventures around the (old) world, most likely in resin. And of course the King on Shield, something that at this point will surprise no one. Dwarfs are one of those factions that I love but I don't see myself collecting, but I'm always ready to be seduced by those beardy ****** if they present me a fun army of infamy and some cool models.
  18. Enough about humies, stunties and pointy ears...This is the thread to talk about Da Boyz, the Orc and Goblin tribes, from the nomadic Waaaghs to the Troll Hordes. Here we can have a nuanced debate about how to give a proper krumping, plus any other topic greenskin-related. Let the Waaagh begin!
  19. What's everyone expecting for Adepticon? I mean, dwarfs is what all of us assume, but besides the awaited King on shield which else could we expect? Is plastic slayers too much to hope for?
  20. I have to disagree about gnomes being a safe guess. We should always be cautious about rumour mongers, of course, but I think Whitefang the Second has earned some credit.
  21. https://www.warhammer-community.com/2021/04/30/broken-realms-fiction-sacrifice/ Just sharing this, as I think might be relevant to the latest Withefang's revelation.
  22. Or maybe Nagash took control of that chamber.
  23. They totally can reasure costumers that BoC will stay, there's no reason for them not to deny it and let people get discouraged from buying more miniatures...unless doing so will make them look bad when the culling/"reinvention" happens, specially if it's in short term.
  24. Maybe it's my confirmation bias, but i find telling that they didn't outright deny it, which i think it's the usual move on these situations.
