    Because every other old battletome being redone for 2.0 was released no more then 2 weeks from the reveal. 

    Need was probably the wrong word but we were told about the sylvaneth delay why not this one. 

    Nearly out of patients. Should have been 1 of the first 2.0 books. The book was ready to go 2 years 

    I don't think that's true at all. They showed off Orruk Warclans and the new Ogor Tyrant in July during the open day and Warclans didn't get released til October and Mawtribes got released November. 

  2. I've been using this as my newbie starter list for a bit, any thoughts on where to go from here? I'm not super competitive but interested to see where the list can improve and what new stuff I should buy. In addition to these I have a Khorgorath, Mighty Lord of Khorne, Gorebeast Chariot, a Bloodstoker, and 6 more Chaos Warriors. 

    Should I be aiming for a Skull Altar and some Daemons for summoning? Been eyeing the Khorne half of the Wrath and Rapture box too.

    He looks better in the video. GW tends to make stuff look worse when taking pictures for some reason. 

    100% this lol, the video makes the model look epic (though I still don't quite like Teclis' face) but the picture they chose makes the model look really, really awkward

    Someone in the rumor thread made a good point that neither of these forces have battleline in box, which is unusual for these. This makes me think we may get some ways to have Skyfires or Enlightened as Battleline, maybe with the new character? 

    Not a bad bet since it would make sense for the KO hero in the box to make the Endrinriggers battleline 

  5. Looking at the box we're getting 

    1 Endrinmaster with Dirigible Suit (?)
    6 Endrinriggers/Skywardens ($80)
    1 Gunhauler ($50)
    1 Magister on Disc of Tzeentch (?)
    3 Screamers ($35)
    6 Skyfires/Enlightened ($80)

    Depending on the prices of the new heroes, I think that's one of the more evenly-priced boxes we've gotten. If the new heroes are in the $35-$40 range, the box seems to be about the same value as Feast of Bones (assuming it keeps its $195 price point) 

  6. Damn January! That’s really soon, but most of us definitely expected these updates at some point in 2020 though and now it’s just Seraphon remaining. Really interested in taking a look at Tzeentch. 
     

    Also there was a KO fan here who was adamant KO were getting left in the dust and not gonna get updated. Well looks like a mini Christmas miracle for them!

    Is Alarielle back!? Point changes seem nice. Any changes to rules? 

    I believe just a clarification on Glades on warscrolls that already have Glades, but I'm not 100% sure if that change is specific to a different translation

    They said they're doing FAQ and points changes twice a year leading up to the GHB2019?

    Right, but that's NOT the same thing with the issues we're seeing right now. The issues we're seeing right now are front-end website issues, which they haven't had before despite updating multiple documents at the same time. It's clear that the issues we're seeing are unintentional.

    like it's an absolute mess for GW saying this is what they'll be doing from now on, and consistently taking in high profit margins by year.

    Who's suggesting that this is how GW is doing it from now on? You really think that they're expecting people to look through the 40k section for AoS FAQs and erratas? 

    Considering in the past they've updated these before without issue, it's probably just a bug or some wires got crossed in this specific update. A mistake.

    My guess is, since they haven't announced any of this stuff officially yet, is that none of this was meant to be seen until it was all up.

    Yeah that's almost assuredly the case. It's certainly a weird way of them getting ready to release them, but they're not ACTUALLY expecting everyone to scrounge through different languages to find the updates

  11. Points changes I pulled from the app (didn't check Batallions/Judgements) 

     

    Skull Cannons: 140 -> 130
    Bloodsecrator: 140 -> 120
    Skarr: 120 -> 100
    Valkia: 120 -> 140
    Insensate Rage: 280 -> 270
    Unfettered Fury: 300 -> 270
    Skarbrand: 400 -> 380
    Wrath of Khorne: 320 -> 300
    Bloodcrushers: 140 -> 120
    Mighty Skullcrushers: 180 -> 160

    EDIT: I compared to my copy of the GHB, missed that some of these changes had already happened

    Hey can someone give me a quick clarification. Is the mark of chaos khorne mark different from the khorne keyword that bloodbound have? Aka will my bloodsecrators work on my chaos warriors?

    Yep when you Mark, those units act as if they have the Khorne keyword so things like the Bloodsecrator abilities will work on them

    Why? Khorne doesn't have that much ranged weaponry so what changed for you? Even Warshrine's own attacks are better. Do you mean the changes to Protection of the Dark Gods ability? Or that its boons doesn't work on non-S2D Khorne units? 

    Yeah the Protection and Favours only work on STD mortals now, no non-STD units which is a bummer.
