  1. Very nice! I would also like to plug Hanskrampf on dakkadakka, he's designed beautiful custom cards for almost every faction in the game (including LoN), they have battle traits, command traits, command abilities, artefacts, spells and skills. Basically everything you would want, he also has special files for printing. So check them out as well and pick the one you prefer: https://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/724491.page
  2. This is the News & Rumours thread, the thread title should really be changed.
  3. Which armies use that kind of pattern on their weapon grips? Only GSC? edit: AdMech as well
  4. Im a bit sad that the female Stormcast look so much better than the male ones. They have less ridiculous shoulder pads and their masks are a lot nicer. Even the armour looks better with the slighter build and subtler details. And I’m sad because I would so collect Stormcast if the males looked as cool as the females.
  5. So the floor should be open now shouldn’t it? Haven’t heard anything.
  6. I think most people did... was pretty obviously a Nurgling with that horn and the Beast sneak peek we'd already had.
  7. There's nothing in the new WD except Mortarion and the Death Guard codex.
  8. I stopped listening to Garagehammer so I haven't Heard those episodes, but I would recomment the excellent Mortal Realms podcasts which has an entire episode for each of the campaign books and also the novels. Brilliant episodes that go through these books basically chapter by chapter in an engaging way.
  9. $400 is quite a lot for a "start" to an army!
  10. From what I understand, your allies don't gain anything from your main faction and vice versa. The point of the allies system is to make it possible to mix different factions without losing the allegiance abilities of your main faction. I doubt that there will be any sort of keyword sharing, battleline sharing or anything that gives you additional advantages. Simply being able to take allies is enough of an advantage.
  11. No Elf alliegance abilities at all except Darkling Covens? Really?
  12. ...and then cast in resin for box shots etc before the plastic mounds are ready. The 'eavy metal painters said as much on Warhammer TV, so you're wrong there, and the rumour photos in resin are most likely pre-production plastic kits.
  13. 25mm square instead of 32mm round is a huge advantage as you can attack with two ranks instead of one, meaning double the number of attacks. That's the only case where base size makes such a big difference though that I know of. edit: oh yeah cavalry going to big ovals, that's probably the biggest issue since the 25mm<32mm can easily be houseruled to 25mm=1".
  14. Is a one-week, book only release. If Death got a book and no new models people would be furious. Come on guys, it's extremely likely Death will get a huge release with tons of new models, a new aesthetic and a new faction with matching fluff. It's not something you can squeeze in between 40k releases, they will need a full month.
  15. My hope is that they will have powerful but very short range guns, to take advantage of their flying mobility. I don't like gun lines.
  16. Flyers in AoS could be very cool since they would lack the biggest problems with flyers in 40k: 1) They are too fast to be on the battlefield for any significant amount of time 2) They fly too high and thus have to be very hard to hit Flyers in AoS could be slow, lumbering warmachines that move closer to the ground, making them more like behemoths and feeling a lot less shoehorned in than in 40k. An airship for example could have dwarfs with long pikes poking at people on the ground. Would be very cool
  17. It's basically already confirmed to be happening from the Heelanhammer podcast.
  18. Well they sort of shut down some rumour monger by giving them free stuff and making them promise not to reveal until preorders...
  19. Allowing "Dogs of War" would defeat the whole purpose of having alligeance abilities in the first place...
  20. Uhm, how long are Twitch archives stored? I can't find any Warhammer TV broadcasts earlier than december, I though they were stored forever? Yes, I'm a subscriber. Also, why does Twitch suck so much for archived content in general? No making your own playlists, no easy way to see what you've already watched, everything is just a jumbled mess...
  21. What it means is that they have a library of CAD elements for Tzeentch that they reuse and modify for different models. So the new Tzeentch head is most likely based on the same template as the Archaon head, modified slightly. It doesn't indicate they're doing any other greater demons, and in the case of Nurgle we know that the Glottkin was supposed to be a GUO at first. So I don't think we'll see a new one anytime soon.
  22. He is a Warhammer World exclusive and not on general sale, I would equate him to a Forge World model, none of which are in the GW books. Hopefully GW will clear this up and I'm hoping they will disallow any old stuff in matched play. Otherwise what's the point or doing an update? Leaving things out is as much of a design choice as putting new stuff in.
