How would people feel about alternating phases instead of turns? Like the winner of the battle round roll takes their hero phase first, then the opponent takes their hero phase...continue through movement, shooting, etc. My biggest issue with the double turn is having one person just sitting and waiting for half an hour or more.

Oh my comment wasnt on Hearthguard, it was the Armor Stacking. Something tells me you're not suppose to have 2+ Armor Save fyreslayers!
Unless you are and every army should have 2-3 battlesmiths all hugging each other! Naked Slayers being tankier than Ironbreakers sure sounds weird.
People like to say they're just "naked dwarfs," but to be fair, they do have magical god-metal infused into their bodies. But I do think that rule will get changed.

Let's allow the faction be out for a couple months before crying "OP." People are smart and find counters to things, that's what's going on with Gristlegore and Skaven right now. New rules need time to breath on the tables. So maybe we all calm down and enjoy the wash of excitement that we'll have yet another dope army to play with/against.

They could probably re-tool the Avatar on foot to work more like a terrain piece, perhaps, it has some similar design elements.
It would be nice if they made the Avatar on foot decent.

The artwork is stunning. I wonder if the flying creatures or (what look to be) smaller magmadroths down by the river will be released in years to come. Wishful thinking perhaps, but more firey beasts would get me on board with starting an army.
The army could stand to have some of those winged droths tearing around the battlefield.

I would be all in on the inevitable DoK terrain feature if it was just a big sword.

Hey, has anyone tried converting 40k Wyches into DoK WE/SoS? They cost half of a DoK box, so for $60 you'd get 20 ladies. I'm just wondering if the sprues are conducive to easy conversions.

Really loving the new Fyreslayer Art.
Warhammer Community always showing off dope artwork that's not quite large enough to be a wallpaper. *Shakes fist* Give me higher resolution images!

I think if we get a brand-new faction this year it'll be something we have no inkling of.
As a side note about Fyreslayers: now that the munchkins are 2 wounds each, does that mean we'll see a Vulkite minimum unit size drop? Is there precedent for minimum 10-man, 2-wound units? Anyone think this might mean less of a focus on hordes? -

Sure, but realistically getting more than 2, maaaybe 3 units in 3" at a time is pretty unlikely, especially with a random "move characteristic". So 2-4 MW on average, 6MW on a "good" position, still nothing special.
If it was like all units within 6" or 12", then maybe it'd be better, but 3" bubble is quite small.
Agreed. The random movement really kills it, and you'll never know how far it's going to get to move. We've seen something like this spell before with Mork's Mushroom, but that one does mortals on 5's, and targets individual models, and ranges at 6D6.
I doubt anyone is going to take these very often unless they're at most 50 points or below.-

Since they just got so much new stuff, and have so many warscrolls, if anything i would expect an old hero to get a new plastic sculpt. Candidates (imo) include:
Madcap shaman
Scuttleboss
Loonboss on Giant Cave Squig
or maybe an alternate sculpt for normal Loonboss...
I feel somewhat confident that they will not release a new unit immediately after releasing a new battletome + warscroll cards... that would be very poor planning.Well the preview showed a squig hopper, so I doubt it has to do with the spiderfang. I don't think it'll be new shaman or foot Loonboss sculpts, we already have a dozen and one ways to get those models. I'd bet a big handful of dosh on the box including a new Loonboss on GCS. No need to change the warscroll and we get an updated sculpt for a model that desperately needed it (and that plenty of people are using for their squig armies).
For me, the box would be an instant buy if it included any Rockguts. Doubt it will though. -

GW have said that Malal will never come back - at least under the same name for "reasons" (i.e. they don't own the rights to it).
He's the god of anarchy, they could theoretically bring him back with whatever name they want and it'd still fit. I don't expect it to happen, but it would still be cool.
-
After reading about how Malal is a renegade Chaos god of anarchy, how dope would it be for him to come back as a new Destruction force? And maybe he brings some Fimir with him...hmmmm?

sucks in the corner
It's not my fault GW refuses to put Skaven into 40k.

As an aside, I'm sort of surprised they haven't yet invented a 5th Chaos god (Horned Rat doesn't count), if only so they can double-dip on the AoS+40k action.

I don't think Slaanesh will get any mortals, if you count the enrapturess, fiends, KoS, masque, Xerxes, mirror buddies, endless spells and scenery piece that's 8 new boxes.
I believe one of the guys at WarhammerWeekly said during the reveal the GW guys said what they were showing "wasn't everything." Someone correct me if I'm wrong. I believe we'll get some Slaanesh mortals. After all, we know at least some are coming to Warcry.

So much for the "year for destruction" i guess.
It's only March. There's more time for the year to happen.

I think it was silly for people to expect whole new units for the Fyreslayers update. Look at Skaven, FEC, and BoC. All got new tomes, spells, and terrain. That's about it. Skaven and FEC each got one new hero, but I wouldn't consider those game-changers. Old armies are mostly just getting rules updates so they can compete with other factions. Doesn't mean they won't get new models in the future, but right now we're in the "Elevator Arc." Gotta get everyone on the same level before we start doing anything truly crazy with them.

Maybe, it's a bit expensive for just an artefact tbh. You're passing up potentially another 5 Boingrots, 12 Squig Herd, a Loonboss on Giant Cave Squig.
What list are you thinking of and what's the two artefacts you feel like you need?
Still experimenting, but this has been what I usually run.
Trogboss as general with loonskin.
Fungoid (or Madcap) Shaman
Loonboss
Troggoth Hag
10 Boingrots
40 Grots
3 Fellwaters
3 Rockguts
6 Squigs
5 LoonsmashasI recently came into possession of 40 more grots, so those are a possibility now. I've also been thinking of adding Skragrot in some fashion. But without Skragrot, I could use the second artifact to give a Gryph-Feather to the hag and the Mommet to a madcap shaman.
-
So I run a mixed force of some grots, troggs, and squigs. Without any real battalion to grab, would it be worth it to take the Squig Stampede battalion with only 10 bounderz, simply to get the extra Artifact?

Turn the Horn 90 degrees = Shadow Aelves confirmed? ^^
Seriously, I would loooove some attention towards Wanderers or Hysh-Aelves. Glad to see so many people speculating about Wanderers. However my first mental Image was some kind of Instrument for the supposed "Light-Aelves" - whatever they may look like
Where is that symbol description from?

Remember folks, don't believe everything as soon as it's posted. Wait at least 10 minutes.

No. It's not. Ignorance does not need to be accepted.
Also, now I'm 3 hours into my WW experience. Less thrilled. There is a level of ego that is off putting.
Bummer
Love the content. Really.
But, issues with the personalities and grammar.
Really, I'm not going for "a hole" on this.
For f's sake, it's AMAZING that folks like Vince are putting out fun content. Hellz yes, bring it.
I'm just saying that my very fussy (based on career in marketing and sales and love of grammar) views make me have super high standards for what I watch.
Sounds like you might be putting too much pressure on yourself and others for perfection. But to each his own. I'm a copy editor and I couldn't give a darn how other people pronounce their P's and Q's, as long as I'm not hired to fix it. Warhammer Weekly is the piece of media I look forward to most every week.
The latest bit about Tom's "5th dimensional chess" conspiracy theories killed me.-

I'm curious what rumor engines are left that haven't been 40k. Really thought these two would be from Darkoath.
