Hmm I think they answer a question of why Firebellies was 1 unit army last May when they where doing Faction focuses, it probably take me forever to find the exact post on facebook. it was mention on the Faction focus-pointless speculation thread, Though now that I think about it, the Facebook response may have been little vague when answering. I pray for a Plastic Wurzog Prophet to lead the warband

I mean I can see a possibility of the Moonclan battle tome having a mixed battalion like Beasthammer or Shadowhammer where you could field spiderfang, but I feel like the Moonclan release is going to be a single army release like DoK/ Nighthaunt and not a "Grot soup book" like LoN and BoC given how iconic Night goblins where in WHF and I don't think GW would merge the two armies together under a Moonclan umbrella given how much they have establish different identity for the two armies (which is the reason GW gave on facebook as to why Firebellies are a thing and they have plans for them) I ok if I am wrong on this, but I feel like is a missed opportunity to release more new stuff in the end to diversify Destruction.

look like Gandalf became a Stormcast (or Donald Sutherland)

I am not sure about that it looks like Moonclan are more about shroom, squigs, and trolls than insects atm TBH I am in camp of that Moonclan and Spiderfang should be their own things even if it take a while for a spiderfang battletome to come out. especially since in the lore they worship two different things and the fact that they had two distinct Portent stories.

my pick would be Bonesplitterz or Spiderfang grot though this spear design is really common amongst the old Greenskins range

It good that they repack them to 6 ogor so it matches their min unit size instead of 4 I wonder if their a reason they separated the Gnoblars into another unit though edit: also judging by the NZ listing, the price actually stay the same to 40 dollar which is awesome if correct. also for some reason Ungor raiders are now part of the Gutbuster store page which is probably an error

you could do it in a mixed destruction army thought since they are destruction battleline units

You know all these minuses to armor sound amazing until you think about Nighthaunt (or at least I do since I play a lot of games against them that I don't even call out my rends anymore)

I guess all we can hope for this year is that Orktober isn't totally all 40k stuff and there stuff for fantasy Orc but that just wishful thinkin at best I feel. it really bad on GW parts playing favorite and making Destruction players wait until 2019 for any Battletome considering the lack of GHB updates.

Skaven Warpstone Gas Bomb, KO smoke bomb

Which weapon loadout do people suggest for the Spider riders? reading the warscroll I think bows are actually ok on them

there was a hint of something coming in Adepticon by the GW spokemen there, unknown if it was specifically for Ironjawz or Destruction in general

I heard a rumor that more Stormcast are on the way

If they do I hope they redo the shooting profile on those Artillery chariots while they are at it

the Scraplancher/ Ironblasters is gone too I notice

I think 2019 is going to have a 40k campaign since they hinted at one in Nova, Also their is a chance Slaanesh may not actually escape its when the battletome get release. also Lorewise we haven't resolve the big Nagash problem right now.

There hasn't been any rumors of more Aelves though, the things that have been hinted to be in the work is Kharadron Overlords and Destruction/ Ironjawz models.

Technically the necroquake was the result of Skaven messing around Nagaash's pyramid. Though if his plan did went off without a hitch he probably would have made a big impact on the realm anyway

Do the beastmen have any Plastic hero other then the shaman? because if they don't that hampers their chances of getting a start collecting box just like why Bonesplitterz never got one. the Shaman could have work but he has his leg pined into a square base like the Savage Big boss so I don't think they would use him for a SC box either.

Well at least that Nightvault warband are coming out soon but I have no idea how that unit of a Troggoth, Squig, and potentially few gobbos would work on the TT, I have a feeling this time around they are not going to be cohesive unit . I do hope the other warband are as cool as the Nighthaunt and potentially what the Moonclan one is going to be I am in the camp where I feel like people overemphasis the sexual nature of Slaaneshi and not actually the dark princes other aspect I am excited for Speed freak, just have not a big paint Vehicle type of guy, but gives me a good excuse to learn. As an Ork fan I hope some of the new model they release is morel HQ choice and a new Ghazghul. I think 9th edition may come after SoB launches and be out for awhile, Probably exactly three years from the release of 8th (like how AoS 2.0 came three year after AoS was actually release)

on the production issue part, they said in Nova that it should be resolved soon after this year and they can crank up more models in the beginning of 2019

I don't think the problem is one over the other, it probably the fact that Destruction may not get a single release this year, haven't gotten one for almost 2 years now, got very terrible GHB updates, and never really given good lore coverage. that and worst case scenario is waiting until next year for the release really feel like being neglected even further by GW.

the rumor box set are probably going to be all Daemons though since its set in the realm of chaos and compatible with 40k, so definitely no mortal units (god specific gors still count since they exist in both universe). also pretty sure their also going to be at least a unit of daemonette on Slaaneshi's side judging by the teaser.

probably Plastic Flesh hound vs. Plastic Fiends If we are really luck maybe Khorngors vs Slaangors.

Well they said "really soon" so I think it not half a year
