How much more Pointy ear trash can there be?!? 😰

Hasn’t most of the US been caught in a massive snowstorm? They were saying on warhammer weekly that a local store hadn’t got any of the the new releases due to the weather messing the shipment up. Weird hair = soulblight gravelords. I’m totally fine with this over the chrome dome boys.

I've always found him surprisingly good; I run a very dodgy grand host list (see below) with him and Vhodrai in. Always good fun if not consistent wins!

I'm guessing Knight of Shrouds size? Look similar from photos at any rate,

I have Kemmler in Failcast and to be fair he still holds up well!

Kind of hoping Soulblight Gravelords releases after third edition. Even though I'm only getting older 😅

If i'm going to be honest apart from the New Varghulf thing nothing on the hostile side in the Warhammer Quest box really interests me. I've never liked zombies and prefer the old skegs over the new ones, maybe they'll grow on me. The Wight King though! Classic updated and perfect imo. Disappointed no Abhorash or further actual soulblight gravelords reveal, the whole Lumineth thing really bored me to death. How big is that army going to be?

So the person that set fire to their high elves can at least be happy!

FFS Enough with pointy ears! How big is Lumineth range going to be?!?

If this turns out to be more pointy eared nonsense I’ll full on rage quit! if however it’s vamps as it should be; good times

The hype train has left the station!

Here's hoping, there was an interesting note on the community site with Sigvald being the best swordsman in the mortal realms or so he thinks... I'd buy 3 of Abhorash for sure; one to keep in the box, one to tarnish with my poor skills and one to have someone paint nicely. Please GW please!

Form filled in. It's a weird one, I stopped buying in store years ago as the staff members I knew all left to work at GW HQ. I buy direct from GW (online) apart from if it's a big model and/or a model I want painted better than my skill will allow, then I'm on ebay or dedicated model painting sites.

Is that actually Vince from warhammer weekly?!

If they can't be negated why bother having a rend value?

Double turn in lotr worked pretty well imo. Although I’m a massive fan boy for that game system.

I don't think they'll be on "normal" horses if we do. I'm so pumped for Soulblight Gravelords and that underworlds warband!

They are different teams that deal with 40k and AoS though aren't they? With the current situation here in the UK there's no telling how many staff are furloughed etc. GW will always priortise 40k over anything else.

Well at least bar the Apocalypse the Underworlds warband is coming out this year and some of the Warhammer Quest stuff too hopefully. One thing I joked about earlier but now has actually got me quite torn; do I rebase everything onto rounds now? I only really play games against my brother and we don't particularly mind if (mostly in my case) most of our models being on squares. I also am reluctant to rebase since The Old World was announced, he however has no interest in going back to that. If Soulblight Gravelords get a lot of new kits for battleline and everything else, I'm almost contemplating starting afresh. If the current skeleton kit remains and Grave Guard/Black Knights remain I'd be less inclined to do so. Love the waiting game lolz.

New rumour engine appears to be Tyranid The Rumour Engine – 26th January 2021 - Warhammer Community (warhammer-community.com) EDIT: Apologies didn't see this was posted a while back.

That's an inverted Black Pyramid... NEVER TRUST AELVES!

I've squeezed a few games last year and my complaints are the same as they have been since AoS 1. Morghasts are too expensive for what they do and in Bonereapers unless you like the models too much (like I do), most people will just play Stalkers instead. I'm quite resigned to the fact this will most likely never change.

It wasn’t until 7th Ed that all vampires had armour; in 6th it was only Blood Dragons and all the others were much more comfortably dressed. They did explain in 7th that they were showing vampires tooled up for war and not at high society banquets. I guess this is just following on from that thought process. The 6th Ed vamps for the different bloodlines were pretty cool

Personally I'd be happy if it was a Halloween release especially if that meant a deluge of new models. Plus it gives me plenty of time to save for all this hotness. Even though I have plenty of vampires in various guises, I'm contemplating of retiring them all and using the underworlds ones. They're so nice and have enough oldwolrd with enough AoS, round bases here I come...

I missed the part of the show where it was announced but apparently OBR are getting at least a new battalion in br teclis!
