Finally, I always knew I was doing it right. Vindication lol

Really hoping we see an updated map of the realm of fire after the rataclysm. Would love to have a before/ after print to go with my one from cubicle 7. Also, still now pure lore books on the horizon that arnt novels? My literal kingdom for a remake of Uniforms & Heraldry of the Skaven. Where are my ****** lore encyclopedias to collect

I personally hope we dont see a Grot chariot, but that is just me. I hate chariots, leave them for the old world xD. Im fine if they stay souped, but like you said i'd want to see a rebranding of the battletome, it cant be gloomspite gitz if you want to have what, 4 (3 not including troggs) major factions inside it. Just make sure they have a nice roster like ironjawz to build a force out of, without having to lean into troops from moonclan. What chaffs me most is honestly, is Kruleboyz have the exact kinda aesthetic that would have worked for grots but they made them orks haha. In another timeline, they downsized just a tad, made them hobgrots, and im playing that army no questions

This is how I feel too. I love soup, but I feel like Moonclan is such a powerful aesthetic that having gitmob smashed into it. They completely overshadow it, and I cant help but fear that if I committed to trying to run a gitmob army, I'd just be forced into a few goblins, with moonclan and troggs. Which is fine if you like that. But I love my faction have more to them then just "they exist as a minor faction for the main guys". I think that's why despite wanting gitmob more then anything, Skaven is more appealing because at least I'm invested in a full faction.

Khull: I ascend. None stand against the might of Khorne. ???:

I cannot wait. I love Moulder and Skyre, Already got my scheme mostly settled. Now I just want to see Vince do some speed painting guides to try and get them looking good before I die of old age

Incredible teaser trailer. Just the vibe I wanted for Skaven Bring it on baby, im all in

Agreed. Slot in perfectly to the STD book, and really turn the faction up to 11. Its hard not to love Slaves now. They have everything, everything is nice and fresh, and on top of that you can look forward to releases for all 4 primary gods to augment/ add more flavor to your collection

I need the Gitmob rumors now. I've been afflicted. Anything, just a crumb, like your feeding a goldfish

Dont do this to be @Whitefang Dont give me hope

Gitmob, you took to long. I'll always love my goblins being soldiers. But im a rat boy now. Skyre update, and hopefully some moulder is all I wanted in skaven. Now to learn how to decently speedpaint the tide.

Skyre and Moulder are life All hail Rat Jank

Man I really wish they'd release some thematic Black Library encyclopedias for AoS. I'm craving some leather bound tomes for the bookshelf and novels just dont do it for me Redo Libre Chaotica for AoS

Love this if its the case. What Skaven need in a relaunch is a core identity of models that people can confidently purchase and begin collecting. Lots of cool flavor like Plague rats and ninja rats can come with new waves! Consider me on cloud 9 if this comes true

Im honestly interested! Never really followed it, but seeing the confrontation between the emperor and horus in context will be cool!

Absolutely. I'm really pulling for a full refresh, anything else will be pretty painful haha. Or rather, at least enough of a refresh that the core of the army can be collected without worrying about new stuff replacing it. That's where i'm at with skaven right now. Attached as my army now, since militant grots isn't in the cards. Have a box of stormfiends to find my colour scheme, but until the refresh I just can't get anything responsibly lol

Im calling skaven for 4th. No chaos on the warcry docket, so I'm feeling the starter set has to be them. Get a double whammy of a warcry unit, which accompanies their range reset.

Ive thought about the novels. But honestly I prefer my lore to come kinda like an encyclopedia, or some kind of written work where I can really get excited about a special edition/ bookshelf piece to help me get immersed into the world. I find a lot of the time warhammer novel's can kinda turn into "bolter ******" for lack of a better word xD. I've already got the core book but I was really looking for things like Libra Chaotica. Might have to look at some of the old world stuff if I can find it not costing the equivalent of a car payment

Appreciate it! On one hand its nice to not have "missed" anything. I look at some of those old Warhammer Fantasy lore books that fit when Im looking for, and I have to cringe at the price xD. But sad that we haven't seen anything like it yet. Hope that changes. Soulbound seems interesting, so long as they dont invalidate it like i've seen them do with some of those 3rd party TTRPG books. Thanks @Baron Klatz for the info! I'll have to look and see what I can try to pick up. I'd always shied away from some of the supplements or battletomes. As I don't really care for the rules clutter, and just want some good, solid lore books that double as a decoration as much as a source of information for the lore. Will see what I can find!

Cross posted from the reddit as well! Thought the formatting would go away, seems not! haha

Im looking for more in universe, cool bookshelf lore tomes for AoS in particular. Does anyone know of any good products that have a lot of both in universe tomes? Something in the vein of Libre Chaotica (Which I hate that I missed the run of), where there are no table top rules but just more information on the Geography, Realms, Customs, Currencies, peoples, ect of the mortal realms. Bonus points for cool, collectors sets that have an interesting finish that might look cool on a bookshelf. Really looking for more of these so I can begin to develop/ pioneer some world building/ Fun narrative campaigns to get me a bit more attached to AoS. If you don't know of any, would things of this nature interest you too? Novels are great, but for me nothing beats a fun history book that lives in the world so to speak... and they are terribly hard to come by it seems!

Been away a while, and im sure its come up. But Valrak, that 40k viewer and rumormonger, has mentioned twice that a big Skaven vs Stormcast release is coming next year. Any other notable rumors floating around?

You know what, I'll take it! THose gorgers are sweet looking!

Oh sweet god. Ardboyz being derpy was always what made me skip over Ironjawz. This is so dangerous. They are beyond stunning

Woof. When every destruction factions gets a highlight for Book 2, and not a peep about ogres xD.
