I mean it quite possible that Black library is just bankrolled by their space marine and Horus heresy novel and none of the AoS novels have ever been big hits to begin with. (Moderate success at best)

Campaign demo coming soon https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/1844380/view/3738606975166981547

Still something to considered. the only reason AoS had late battletome releases like Soulblight and Deepkin before an edition change was because those battletomes where still valid going into the next edition. It may not be so if they do a reset of the system and any new battletomes would just be invalidated in less then two months of validity

I mean if they are indexing the edition for 4th and resetting the game, there probably not another battletome after FeC. FeC may get snuff like world eaters did in 40K where their book was active for like 5 months before 10th happen

Grotbag scuttlers at least keeps getting push in the lore and Black library novels at least then you have stuff like Chaos Duradin and Malerion aelf that feel like it will happen eventually

Livestream event

It probably an oversight, their graphic team has been off lately with putting wrong logos on their preview historically GW Winter is Q1 of the year (Jan Feb and early March) and they rarely release anything big in December because they go on a two week holiday during Christmas (maybe a underworld warband like Grinkrak Looncourt or a small MESG release at the beginning of the month)

Lord Gloam

Probably they will look similar to Skaeth Wild hunt so an infantry squad of Satyr Aelfs melee/ and bow version cav squad of Centaur Aelfs. Orion like Kurnoth model the Malkyn beast pack Assortment of generic heroes but it’s all conjecture until it happens

I mean it’s subjective but your probably ann easy to paint if you can spray a base coat of one color and just paint the detail with a few colors pots here and there. yes there are some armies that can be as easy to paint as Stormcast and space marines. But it’s also equally nonsense to think CoS or Lumineth are in that conversation either

Exodites haven’t come out yet that and anytime he uses a Faeit212 rumor which are just clickbait rumors and often not true to begin with

The story seem to mostly focus on both the Dawnbringer crusade progress, and/or anything happening the Hammerhal Asha/ Ghyra. Not sure if they will explore any more then that.

TBF for 40K, Chaos and chaos space marines are sort of lightweights compare to other factions in the game. They are not the most inevitable force to take over the galaxy because Tyranids, Orks, and Necrons exist. but yeah the whole premise of 40K which was probably base on WHF was that the setting was always on the eleventh hour before bad stuff hit the fan. Which also restricts the narrative and how the story can move foward. edit: where it leads to moment where you can’t have the bad guys wining to hard all the time. Like if the Blood angel world of Bael is being swift by Tyranids who are supposedly the most unstoppable force in the galaxy. You have write in that a Khorne daemon prince appear out the warp to defeat the Tyranids and saves the Blood angels because he still has an honorable beef with Sanguinius.

All thing point to them separating their games setting more then any unifications at least between their mainline games and Specialist games. what happen in 40K where they basically legends all the Horus heresy is probably the indication of what they will do going forward with AoS and Old world

They do have like 2 more chambers to open in the future. I also guess they can keep making different armor type to fit whatever the narrative or new mechanic they are introducing in each edition

Gobsprakk was in a boxset last year as well

I rather they focus on the narrative a bit more during the whole edition instead of sidelining it until almost the end of the edition. at least with 40K they release crusade packs regularly during their codex release even if some of those narrative very inconsequential to the greater galaxy.

It was King Brodd by the way

sounds like Khorne, Sylvaneth, and Skaven are going to be active in the next book. Maybe doubling back on either Nurgle or Fyreslayers

But they still do what they want to do over what most people want/think/ assume they to do, we would have digital rule set, less battletome releases, no paywall apps, and less ambiguous rules on their fans RTS what people are asking of city is beyond the bounds and parity they set up between other armies, most armies won’t get to at much support or expansions out of its core identity and Cities is not some golden goose exception to their design philosophy
