Yes. This was also the only way to get most of the Swifthawk that wasn’t available anywhere else, and a cheap way to get a whole lotta Clanrats

There’s no such thing as ‘The Old World’. This is your new reality now.

This month’s Pledge: Paint a model 😅 I didn’t get anything painted for AoS last month. I spent the first weekend at the office, the second weekend helping my in-laws move, and during the third week we found out that the wife is pregnant with twins, so I’ve been going through my Magic cards to find things to sell (and then promptly had a payment issue with the company I was trying to sell to).

They just had Ylthari, which looks nothing like the cover, which looks more like a Branchwych, which looks nothing like the Beastgrave elves. i can’t help but wonder if the rumor that the creative teams don’t always talk to each other is true.

Only 3 and a half hours until I get my notification email!

I don't know what to think when most of the High Elf stuff is gone, but the StD Godsworn Warband is still available. Chariots, Loremaster, Unforged and all of the metal Elves are what remain. Also, it's worse than just this for High Elf players. Minus Phoenix Guard, Phoenixes, Shadow Warriors, and Sisters of the Watch, they've lost everything. Swifthawk Agents haven't had most of their things available for years.

Horses that have been axed by GW since the start of AoS: Most Empire Knights, Silver Helms, Glade Riders, and all of those Bretonnia Knights New models that have had Horses: Varanguard Not to mention that horses don't scream the same kind of Fantasy world that AoS has built from the beginning.

Everything can be summed into: Metal/Finecast Mounted/Unmounted Two Heroes kits (GW have already committed a number of horse-cides in the past, so this is likely standard-fare) Old-Fashioned Dwarfs (Those not covered head to toe in metal) High Elves that didn't have Phoenix in it (I hate to pile on, but you can't buy anything for Swifthawk Agents other than Shadow Warriors now either) War Altar of Sigmar (I assume it's because of the equines) Glade Guard (Assume its because theyre a box of 16, but we still have Dryads) I really like the XBows/HGuns idea. Now I have to ask why GW didn't think of doing that.

Because that hasn't ever happened. Plenty of things received a rebox without going last chance. Minus the Warhammer Legends, Last Chance has meant Last Chance. I'm still waiting for a reprint of Ushabti to pick up a box.

ETA: Edited another person's screenshot, still looks meh

SIlver lining, but the Phoenix Temple stuff is still there.

Some AoS players are annoyed that anything from WFB still exists.

Araloth/Nomad Prince is still there.

Glade Guard, Dispossessed Warriors, Quarrelers, and Thunderers might be gone because of the 16 unit size instead of 10, but it's weird to see the first two considering they got repackaged (and recently too) I feel for the High Elf players though, they have to be livid that their collection just got nuked from orbit.

Too big. Thinking Fanatics and Trolls.

I rolled a natural 1 on my deduction check and this still checks out.

Is there anyone else like myself who just tries to collect a nice chunk of every army? I'm at roughly 63,000 total points (not including scenery). Stormcast and Skaven are the only two over 4,000 points, sitting at 4801 and 4393 respectively. Although, if everything for Free Cities stays, that army will probably exist somewhere over 10,000 points. I have weird stigmas for what I purchase too. So little of what I have is big models, and so much is just a combination of what comes in the two-Army battleboxes, Start Collecting boxes, and Holiday Battleforces. I only sometimes buy a kit more than once, and usually only if it is a Battleline unit, or builds a completely different model/unit (as opposed to a different weapon loadout).

Everything is bigger in Texas. Everything.

Probably the same way that fatso Festus killed the great King Louen Leoncoeur: Let him kill a GUO, then jump him while he's wounded. To be fair, Horticulous is one of Nurgle's first children, so he's probably more powerful than he looks.

It strikes me that the people who really want a few of these boxes to disappear are the same people who wanted Tomb Kings and Bretonnia removed from the GHB. I look forward to their disappointment.

Here’s a list for you. All of these Order models are metal or resin: Spellweaver Swordmasters Waystrider Waywatcher Warrior Priest Witch Hunter These kits only build 1 thing: Black Ark Corsairs Demigryph Knights Dragon Blades Drakespawn Knights Dwarf Warriors Flagellants Freeguild Archers Freeguild Greatswords Phoenix Guard White Lions Corsairs and P Guard fit into two of the Free Cities (Anvilgard and Phoenicium) without issue, so I don’t think that’s an indication of getting cut.

Here’s some rampant speculation: Everything here is safe.

I’ve got the tailgate tent up next to the mailbox and plenty of beer in the cooler for the next three days.

Its nothing. One of the pictures for the Cities release has Wildwood Rangers and Wild Riders. The models most likely to disappear are those that are metal, resin, or are attached to out of print sets. Swordmasters are the first thing to pop into my head.
