    Yes, correct.
    My point was that the planning for Factory 4 was/is to wrangle some of the items that make up the core products back into onshore production and realign each factory for project costing, logistics and taxation purposes.

    This was rumored to include mainline rules related books and media and offshore plastic. We likely won't see this payoff for some time, especially due to the setbacks they have had with getting Factory 4 happening. This wasn't a "now" kind of speculation, but a "planned for now and executed later" kind of speculation. A ground up rewrite seems like the time to prepare for what they plan on doing with these offshore plastic kits and may indicate to us if production is planned to continue onshore for them partial or at all.

    I doubt they will move all these products to the UK. They were Made in China because of the low cost and the not hurry to be "In Stock". It is more possible that they will make them irrelevant for the new edition before the process of moving all the equipment to the UK

    For now, yeah. I believe the intent is for this to change with the resolution of the Factory 4 planning.

    Who knows, the rumours said that books are gonna be printed in the UK and they are still printed in China

    Yeah that was why.
    I do remember hearing a rumour a while back that they were looking at getting the tooling pulled and shipped to them though? Not sure on the validity of that though.

    Either way, if they're no longer fabing it in China, or if they refab in GB, they need to decide to keep or toss them from the rules eventually. Wondering if this might be a catalyst for swinging one way or another.

    They are still made in China.

    Correct me if I’m wrong but didn’t GW produce the endless spells in China instead of Lenton ? And that’s the reason they stopped releasing new ones at the end of 2nd edition ?

    Yes, and maybe. We don't know exactly why they reduce the priority of endless during second half of that edition.

    The question now is what changes we are gonna get, because endless and terrain faction will suffer big changes.

    Thank you for sharing but this is meaningless without context.  Maybe all endless spells are rubbish now, or wizards points will go up to reflect their ability to cast endless spells, or each army will only be able to choose one, or one of the modular rules packs will add points later.
    As for weapon choices it makes sense with no weapon ranges in melee. (Incidentally what about long range weapons?) There is sometimes minimal differences between weapons. This is one hits on threes and wounds on fours but the other one does the opposite. Combining them both doesn’t make a massive difference to the result of combatbut would save a lot of time in the game. When there is a bigger difference will we be having more warscrolls like the Kurnoth hunters?

    If endless spells are normal faction spell lore and require a spell slot like others is easy to understand why are free now.

    They literally don't have spiders in ToW Orcs and Goblin army list and Lizardmen are a legacy faction, I dunno what you're looking at. 

    Spider riders, Araknarok, Goblin Hero Spider rider, night goblins (except heroes) and savage orcs are in army lists but not shown in photos.

  7. I only want to say something:

    - The old cycle was that Kurnothi was gonna receive a big bunch of kits.
    - The new cycle is that Orruk Warclans is going to be splitted.

    Please, repeating too many times something in this forum don't become taht thing in a rumour or a possibility. Mind calm.

    I don’t even think that’s likely- Darkoath don’t fill the same niche, and there’s really not many ranges left to update to AoS: 

    CoS (Assuming Dwarfs and Elves stay) need those done, but that could be handled by a 2nd Wave.

    Bonesplittaz, who I could see going along with the end of Big Waaagh! since it seems likely Kruleboyz and Ironjawz get their own Vanguards and Battletomes.

    Skaven, who are getting theirs in a few months.

    Ogors, who it would shock me if they were more than 2 years out from theirs.

    Beasts, who are the only ones rumored to vanish, but have faction terrain, endless spells, and could probably be AoSified fairly easily by leaning into mutation and wild monsters. 

    The only reason they would be going would be that the TOW team had enough influence to make it so, or GW wants to further bloat the second largest battletome in the game. 

    The actual Orruk Warclans Vanguard is gonna be the Orruk Warclans Spearhead.

    The moment they remove Pestilens and Eshin armies for dumbification issues I stop any atempt of playing AoS at all and leave this forum forever

    If they remove Pestilens and Eshin is because all the clans would be unified.

    It seems that there will be a lot more changes:

    I'm excited to see this new iteration of AoS, to be honest,  I'm not a fan of all the stuff introduced in 3.0 . Let's hope for the best with 4th edition.

    So, about rules, Matt, Phil and Ben talked about the USR and is seems that there will be only a few (some examples where common weapon abilities, champion, music and stanrard bearer), let's see what happens with all the crazy AOS abilities. Another point is that the rule's team worked on all the warscroll with their miniatures in mind, trying to adjust the rules with what you see on the table.

    My main issue is the discrepancies that AoS has, everything needs to be designed within the same structure. And I hope that we don't lose any flavour in the process.

    If you require a reset as a designer is because there are not gonna be changes, it is a new system and you can expect new things coming. AoS 4.0 doesn't exist it is NEW AoS

    I have a question for those of you who know more about dates, guys.

    I check every day a second-hand site and today I found this:

    image.png.b6a5bbffd17e6172b21c4cce68c6d61a.png

    I clicked in the CoS out of curiosity and he is saying that it would be released on April 20th.

    image.png.e940b599fb64bcbff65980df2e039ee9.png

    Is it even possible for someone to know already that release date?

    It is because Wyrdhollow was released last April week past year.

    My source has been wrong in the past, so we'll see - I'm not 100% confident with my date and your timeline makes a lot of sense as I've heard that GW has been trying to make the biggest new thing to be released on the first Saturday of each month, but it hasn't always been possible lately.

    Your source is right but he is expecting one week preorder

    The launch box will be released on the 29th of June. We will see all contents of the box during a preview in May, but I guess they will start showing some single models earlier like last year with 40k.

     

    I heard preorder is 22th and It will come first July week after two preorder weeks.

    Yes, it almost look like goblin ears to me.

    In general goblinish, ot how GW depicts them.. but more how I do ( avatar profile for example.) and I often have made 2 goblins piggybacking but wearing one dress concepts.. wich this reminds me of.

    Maybe it is the perspective, but the arma don't look like CoS human arms, they are really strange looking

    I think Chaos Dwarfs are coming soon. Lost Kingdom miniatures received a letter from GW to remove their Magmhorin dwarfs. Especially the Lamussa,Taurus and bul-thaurs. It's a shame 😞, these have been on their store for years and now GW is coming after them.

    They are coming!
