Well there are DoW 1 & 2 devs on the team, but considering the game is cross-platform I'm not expecting a traditional rts game. I highly suspect it's going to be turn-based.
I don t care if its real time or turn based ,i hope to khaine it will have TWw levels of diversity(aka many distinct factions/races)and its fun.By Asuryans crispy nuggets i will have my cow elves even if i have to challenge Gotrek himself to a drinking contest!

I just can't wait for the Kurnothi ! I'm waiting for an updated miniature worthy of Orion. A part of Kurnoth was awakened.
"A shard of Kurnoth has indeed been woken and hunts in the swamps of the Ghoul Mere but by self-admission is not yet at the level of a god."
Yawn,Kurnoth is just a angry pointy eared hippy with a axe,wake me up when morathi slips and drops the iron heart in a coldren and we can get back the true big hitter of the old elves,your all to soft under tirion/teclis/molerion.

Aelves and Gargants unite!!
I think it's either Idoneth or the Vampire Pirates. Leaning more towards Idoneth.
Id prefer idoneth to have more ,''graceful'' and fast creatures. A big angry crab could be fun but it dosen t scream Idoneth to me.

Unfortunatly, according to "inside GW contact", the reveals of tomorrow have been lightened due to change in the GW grand scheme (schedule). There will be some news to keep the major promises but not the biggest of the biggest as planed initially. Take care guys and enjoy your family time 😛

Don't forget most of what we've seen for the Luminoth has been core troops. The core line infantry, cavalry and ranged component of their army. The bread and butter of their forces. The more extreme is clearly in their more elite and leader units. A mage balancing on a tower of rock (its the old style of a mage balancing act, but with way more underneath); a hovering hero with a massive pet sphinx; a living suit of armour. There's clearly room for even more unique and crazy ideas within their army.
That be true, Teclis being the more zen part with the core infantry,and Tyrion to bring the umff with big stuff.What I m hoping for is for the army to have Tyrion/Teclis dynamic that they had in the old word,Teclis a mage with moon motif and Tyrion warrior sun/dragon motif.There both gods and imbody the same ''light'' with different aspects,the light of the moon and the light of the sun.But I m not holding my breath.

Hey if you've been under a rock that long have a look at all the wraith models! Plastic waithwarriors and guard; and lords and knights! All modern plastics too.
Also Maugan isn't fat - he's just big-boned!

In my experience wargamers in general - both fantasy and 40K - take their lore "seriously" for "their armies" no matter what game system. However interestingly only a small percentage will take it further than the rulebook and battletome/codex level. Ergo far fewer will read books by Black Library.
That said I'd also say that BL has some bias built into it - for Old World and very much for AoS there's no real "central" faction that takes the full lions share of releases. As a result you get a lot of stories on everyone. In 40K there's a far heavier bias toward the Imperium factions. Even big and old races like Eldar have far fewer stories about them - although I get a feeling that (Horus Heresy stuff aside) this is slowly changing.
Still dreaming of the day of plastic Asurmen and Plastic Dier Avengers.

Welp now after seeing that Louise Sugden model I'm now gonna have to learn to paint bright colours and get myself pastel colour paints because boy does that seem exactly the sort of style of colour I'd love painting!
Looks like that dark elder covens project I was about to start is gonna get loud and pastel!

They propoably simply have a better understanding of color due to their background ^^. But nice story
Edit: NVM I just reread the study! Females can see more colors than males. (Which means more shades of a color)
now I am a sad panda 🥺
Don t be sad m8.At least we have simpler time buying clothes.If its a red shirt it goes with ma red shoes.Don t have to get my brain in a twist to make the shades to match.

Because Morathi doesn't deserve nice things.
For what she did to Malus in the End Times she deserves a good ars ass whooping. When I fix my pc(I m using my old work laptop now) I m gonna crank up TWW2 with its new dlc, get tzar'kans influence to 0 and go full scourge of khaine on Ghrond and purge her sorceress kabal and the cults of slaanesh.

And why men can't be beautiful?( or handsome?)
The sea elves are all ugly and bald.
In my opinion they should gave gone full dark cthulu,with fin ears and gills.And as for the sisters of battle ,in all honesty,they have a pass because there a lot of face types,plus wen it comes to Impirial units I prefer them helmeted.And for the beauty,exept for the saints I don t think they need to very ''sexy'',but some of those faces can easly go on a space marine marine or a catachan jungle fighter and no one will see the difference.

zilberfrid-'' No need to continue accepting sexism''
Got actual facts to back up that heavy statement ?
If I remember clearly back in the old days we had a more male centric products/models/style because they were majority buyers+the cultural tendency back then,not that companies had in for the women costumers who usually come from the low pool of ''geek girls''(wich didn t increase much it only became louder).
''GW to make a few sets with ONLY human females, to compensate 30 years of not making any (or hardly any)''
I get what you wan t to say.Correct me if I m wrong or if I offend but sounds like you wan t Gw to ''morally compensate'' for the lack of female model diversity to absolve themselves of there ''sexist'' past.Wich makes me think that even you have a pair of ''rose tinted glasses'' with wich you see the 80.This is wat I assume from you're text,if I m wrong then then let Khaine be my judge.

My issue is that GW has sort of started forcing "diversity" into both 40k and AoS in the last few years. To me it doesn't feel like it's been handled in a natural and realistic way. It can come across as their being a quota. In particular the fact that the majority of the stormcast exclusive models have been named female characters. It seems like they really want to show off their diversity.
It feels like Warhammer, rather than being the sort of harder fantasy world, has beant it's own rules to ensure a certain level of gender representation.
With all the culture wars stuff going on sometimes you just want fantasy to be fantasy in the traditional vein.
It honestly isn't a big thing or something I think about much. It's just another thing to sort of roll my eyes about when I see these exclusive stormcast models.
I have absolutely no issue with women, I love my partner, the women in my family and I respect my female colleagues. But warhammer has always been a "boys and their toys" space and it doesn't need to be liberalised or diversified.
I hope you can see where I'm coming from even if you don't agree.
Anyway didn't mean to go so off topic. To end I would have preferred a cool and gender neutral exclusive nighthaunt model.
Meh to be honest I don t mind diversity where it can be applied with out a lot of mental gymnastics and lore recctoning.And the number of female characters/models that gw added don t feel so forced as other fantasy/sci fi ip .Heck I would say they do a better job then other ips.What I would like to see is more female special characters/generals then army units. The few girls that we have in our shop that play 40k(they don t like aos unfortunately) went full howling banshee wen they saw the new sisters of battle.
Ok I got baited of topic a little.As for the subject at hand I wouldn t mind a ''gargant'' army.But the would need to be closer to the old sky titans from fantasy.4-6 ''Gargant'' units with a lot of weapon options with a fully armored leader and some small army support of cultist/slaves/servence would be kind of cool.

Stormcast and Nighthaunt were a given - they've got all the pushfit and marketing behind both armies to be starter forces. For the whole of 2.0 that's going to be the case for both those forces. Now when 3.0 drops GW might well change it up and use two totally different armies as the marketing focus for the edition. Or at the very least drop Nighthaunt and focus on another army.
It was no surprise to me that it was SC and Nighthaunt for this product; remember whilst established gamers will jump all over it; its core target market is beginners who might have very few to no model resources. A magazine subscription that gives them paints and tools and models and terrain - basically all in one.They can even split it with a friend - one half taking SC and the other Nighthaunt (split between two the monthy costs go way down on the subscription)
I know what its for and why we get them,dosen t mean I like it.As a Eldar/Aeldar player in 40k every time I see space marine pattern I go''arghhh''.What I am waiting for is the shadow aelves.The light ones would be cool to see because I wanna see how Gw does there theme ,but I have no interest in them ,especially when its Tyrion Mc'' cuck my king and give the ever child the curse of khaine because I couldn t keep my tunic closed for a fraking year''is leading them...And after reading the idoneth lore it seems that his twin dumbass has not learned from his past as well.I was hoping for Finubars return as ''The lord of the deep'' and becoming Mathlann avatar/reincarnation and sinking those to numbskulls to the dark deep with Morathi to if we are at it.
