Feed me destruction rumors. I'm hangry.

Yeah, I think your right. Ogors need it in a big way I'm more then happy to wait for my jawz. Looking forward to the waugh spells and some new units though eventually xD.

Agreed with your thoughts @Overread. Though I still have no idea where the rumor for an orruk combined tome comes from. I just cannot see it. Bloodsplitta lore is predicated on the fact they are tripping so hard on Waugh juice that their too deranged to even fit into what you could even call society for orruks. Much more likely they are kept separate. With Bone's getting a small release of hopefully the spells, terrain, and a centre piece. With ironjawz getting a larger one assume the role of the major orruk faction in the vacuum greenskinz left behind. In a perfect world they all get fleshed out, but if there is a combo tome coming it's for sure for Ogors. Just hope they maintain the Everwinter flavor

There is confirmed at least 1 destruction tome this year. Anyones guess which faction it will be though!

Ironjawz here. Have a small smattering of dissposessed, gutbusters, slaves, and BCR on the shelves.

Same here. Chaos warriors hooked me on this hobby. Personally I'm hoping the STD update brings new Chosen in all their glory. Not much for the conan aesthetic, but it's good enough that I'll deal with it so long as my commanders keep that look. I just cant wait for archeon to come back into the story. I dig his lore in a big way, and chaos undivided in general. Let me look like Sauron, bowing to a bigger Sauron, or let me die.

Agreed. Just looking at their view page combined with troggoths, they are one of the most discussed armies on here. The opposite is more likely. Gloomspite sold so well they want to pair them in another skew with Sylvaneth who are getting an update.

Yeah, people seem to have combined tome fever lately. Ogors combining, Ironjawz and Bonesplittaz combining, dwarfs combining. Honestly, I cannot see Orruks combining. The themes are unique and strong, you have bone for your unhinged primal orruks, and Ironjawz for your more intellegent (relatively), larger orruks in armor. Given the fact we've seen orruks as basing material on stormcast and Ironjawz was a brand new range, I'd put my money on new sculpts coming for Ironjawz. Especially now that greenskinz are gone. All that remains of the old, butt stuck out, Orc line are ardboyz. They have all this free room to create something new for an iconic faction, and we've seen the modelers incorporating some into other models. An Orc refresh is due, and this sets the scene perfectly.

It would really dilute the heavy winter theme for BCR honestly. I'd much prefer them to stay separate and Gutbusters to get a fleshed out tome to be the ogor's who populate the realms at large. With the BCR being the cursed, niche tribes so GW can really focus on the winter theme/ upgrade yeti and other winter beasties. Buuuut, If the fluff was written right and I wouldn't be against combining the ranges again. THey fit well together, but it would likely mean losing the heavy, heavy winter theme. As most Gutbuster units don't fit it at all without conversions. Would have to see BCR become Gutbusters, not the other way around.

Could honestly just do one big, fat ogor and have some flavorful grots scuttling around him. Ala the troggoth warband!

Honestly, I'd be happy with just that basic treatment for Ironjawz. A book, terrain piece and spells would do a lot to spice things up for the limited, but quite functional, range. Destruction in general seems quite in theme with the idea of a terrain piece. Where some of the more recent ideas coming out don't make a ton of sense to pop up on the battlefield (ie; the FEC Throne or FS Forge), destruction doesn't build things. I'm fairly confident what we will get will be something that makes sense to move with the Waaghs, given the transient nature of orruks. Not to mention spells will be a good send. Big issue I have thematically is seeing things like the death magic that is so out of theme with the orruk army... Doesn't make a whole let of sense to use, ect. More then anything... just bring on the lore. I feel like destruction in general just has no place at the table. They get used as a token third party to complicate things for the other big three... never any fleshing out of them as a people. Ogor, Orruk and grot alike.

I doubt they'd give away everything for AoS in a teaser before the panel. 40k just had a new release so its unlikely there will be another huge preroder so fast. Expect Sisters of battle teases and such. Slaneesh is for sure the big model event, and it doubly goes for my first point since the demon releases are for both 40k and AoS. Very likely we see more battle-tomes and such in addition to the slaneesh goodies. As well as probably Warcry, Forbidden power taste, and of course more boxed game stuff.

Going to just say, everyone who is screaming elves must be coming... Temper your expectations a bit haha. The idea that Teclis and Malareon will ride out to meet a weakening in Slaneesh is mostly, from what i've seen, a community idea. We've got next to nothing to support elves are coming out. Sure, they absolutely are coming at some point, but all we know is Slaanesh release is up to bat. Elves could be later this year.... they could be next year... or the year after. Tons of excitement is great, but just be careful about drawing it as a definite conclusion. Seen so many people saying a Teclis release is gospel because of this trailer.

Well this is likely tied very closely to Forbidden power, and its surely a very large release. Rumors have been out for a while, with pages of people pointing out foreshadowing that Nagash would inadvertantly shatter the bonds on Slaanesh. Feels sufficiently big to me!

Beat my by THAT much @AaronWIlson But yeah.... awesome teaser. But WOW. Chaos Overload on releases confirmed I guess

Man I'm excited for tonight! Can't wait for the Warhammer weekly post show to (hopefully) gush over some new AoS stuff Please destruction, come on GW you know you want too!

Have there been Ironjawz rumors? I think they might be one of the few early tome armies not to have some rumored release/ update!

Truth. The machine must be fed.

Bit off topic, but has there been any peeps for Ironjawz at all? Seems things have been pretty quite for destruction's poster boys. Being an early tome we might see a shake up tome for them this year honestly.

Its all subjective really. My issue with the Yeti kit is the fur. It looks like something i'd be able to do pushing a tool into greenstuff, and when you compare that to the rest of the range, it looks terrible. That, and of course being Finecast. I actively try to avoid factions with it.

Bring on the buff warrior grandmas. Cool sculpt, fine with the occasional stormcast hero release and she's a great model. aaaaand of course a destruction army is base terrain. As is tradition lol

Less a new announcement, But i'd adore some kind of rumor or teaser to chew on Bit sparse on those atm, since the forbidden power one didn't give much of anything! Other then a rush of adrenaline for Tomb Kings Anonymous

Anyone have any tips or tricks for spicing up Ogor pants? Painting my lot up and decided on blues and reds, but they seem a tad plain! Skin I plan to do a few tattoos, or at least try too. But Im at a bit of a loss for the britches. Don't really like the old style of pin stripes. Bit too old world for me!

100% agree. Those yeti are one of the ugliest models that GW has ever put out, on top of being resin. When measured up to other allegiance abilities the Everwinter table is not only bad, but horribly boring. Really doesn't translate the theme to the tabletop like Blood tithe, the cycle of corruption, ect. I think what I want to see most is a change to dirty snowball. Its not Op, but it just feels awful to play against. Would much prefer it to me something that deals with hordes then a massive snipe. Also, perhaps, the option to make them *slightly* less elite. 4-5 models is a bit too elite for me, and primarily why I swapped over to guts. Also, give Guts Allegiance abilities already. They are one of the few factions that literally have nothing. No lore, No Allegiance ability. Least they can do is throw them a bone lol.

Skaven, Flesheater, and Khorne all really came out of nowhere. So I wouldn't lose hope entirely. From what I heard from the forums and online the Beastclaw sets sold fairly well, so I imagine they are on a whiteboard to do list somewhere lol. Enjoy the hobby side of it!
