Leviathan lasted like 6 hours was probably the Pinnacle of how high demand is vs how much they could feasible produce to meet that demand.

Yeah, even the Seraphon and S2D boxes didn’t sold out during preorders either (you can still buy the those boxes from online retailers here and there) it really been only a 40K problems with both their bundles like the Lion or Killteam boxes that have been outsold during the preorder window

Well keep in mind it looks like they took away the charge ability from basic units so only heroes and certain units have them in their latest build. it be interesting if people can adjust using range units as you are suppose to set them up with their arc of fire over the traditional RTS method of attack move order.

I mean beside Stormcast and Marines being big and easy to paint they are also design their model that can be primed one color and be good to go (spray retributor gold or Maccragge Blue) I not saying The community is overestimating the popular appeal of Cities but like the Lumineath situation, they probably ended up in the middling tier of army popularity like where most army end up in. I also doubt GW will move on from Stormcast, they just continue them to be the face of AoS judging by their commitment to their marketing.

Lol the free city is called Harkanibus ( Har Kanibus ) so it does sound like Our Cannabis

Spoiler if you want to experience the game first hand but here is early campaign footage and story elements Voice acting and cinematic are pretty stellar

has to hexwraith, they have the scythe

Awlrich the Drowner is an actual character in the game by the look of it (not a reskin unique character like Lady of Ash in stoneground)

Nighthaunt confirm to be the third race in realms of ruin

Steam page just updated with release date of November 17 Plus editon tiers and looks like cosmetic dlc and hero dlc

What are we internet stalkers or something?

For those who are interested when they will livestream the new content

The dominion and leviathan boxes are probably the best of both worlds for newbies and veterans, they have everything you need for a newbie and their friends to start AoS and all rules to start the new edition for veterans. The boxes are however like you said are tied to the starter set as models from the box are often available for the starter set. they have release vs boxes in the past with loads of brand new models on both side but they have mainly been in 40K, and those boxes have obvious downside as your buying a box with half of the model you may not want and would need to split with someone.

They didn’t get anything this edition (except the standard foot hero)

Yeah but some have yet to bear anything i thing Snarlfang is an example of yes they can exist but it only lead to an auxiliary unit in gloomspite Gitz, if concept don’t prove to be popular it just may lead to hedrakka mob being a random Orruk warband and Bonesplitterz just existing without much purpose in their army. Bonesplitterz and spiderfang are both in a weirder place than those examples as they have been not treated as a full army for sometime now and more like the city stuff that may be also squated in the future. or course they could just replace Bonesplitterz with beastsnagga Ironjawz and start to shadow that army into something similar to Orks in 40K

I mean the two armies are not equivalent here, Bonesplitterz have been relegated to a side army like wanderers or Phoenix temple, BoC has at least been a full army on release and kept being their own thing and also old world has been stated to be its own thing separated from AoS, what happens in that game has nothing to do with AoS in the end. not saying it mean squating but they alway been in this unhealthy place what’s the point of them in the game?

I don’t think underworld warbands carry much weight, thoose push to fit models seem like product they can simple discontinued/ range rotate out of existence if they wanted too. it really the trend on how they have treated Bonesplitterz and other old model ranges vs newer models sometimes, almost like they purposely make them weak or hard to collect. If your not going to do anything for them what is the purpose of keeping them around to lavish and if your made in a state that no one plays or collect them what point would you have ever refreshing them? (they are also very marmite and niche design, thematically it’s no some big seller product) of course, I would like all three armies to be separated into their own battletome and each get their respective releases every edition, but TGA is in the mindset of not upping the battletome numbers too much or less new armies more expansion as of now

Double post

It more like Ironjawz are Brutal by kunnnin (Gork ) Kruleboyz are Kunnin but Brutal (Mork) Bonesplitterz are pure beastal WAAGH energy since Gorkamorka is the incarnate of the Beast (something unique to AoS version of Gorkamorka being more of an actual deity)

That and the Warclanz PTG is more gear to seperate clans and not Big WAAGH they even allow you to use Big WAAGH rules along with the seperate Orruk allegiances making using BW even less incentivizing to use unless you really want to mix stuff

I rather they just split out the Warclanz book and just get rid of Big WAAGH ( mainly because GW is really bad at soup that they even being going away with mixing stuff up as a play design) even if this may cause the end of Bonesplitterz the problem with continuing souping is that the Warclanz units all occupy a lot of the same role and many infantry units would just be redundant. It just be cherry pick the best options. also at least between Ironjawz and Kruleboyz, there no uniformity between the two ranges they basically should have be two seperate army to have begin with. If they where split it also be better from a model release stand point because at least your one obligatory foot hero per edition is actually is part of the army you like.

Reminder that daemon of chaos combat patrol was all Khorne daemon for 40K

Well I really not giving any army the Bonesplitterz treatment, ultimately it’s really what GW wants or schedule to do and all these things you listed are probably thing I except to happen either way. I have not really felt that the two system differ that much from a macro system perspective. It not like a regular edition change doesn’t also cause the same problem because they probably do change a lot of the mechanics that also cause problems within the existing battletome lor create weird janky situation like OBR last edition

I mean if they where to implement some of the changes that people like from 40K 10th edition like heroes being part of units or something AoS player been wanting like reducing MW in the game as a whole, I can see them resetting every army into index form so warscrolls and allegiance abilities are all fresh at the beginning with these new mechanics and restraints in mind but of course this is just my hypothesis.
