  1. That would be disappointing, but is likely. IDK are fairly set as an army, new stuff would flesh out the army (whether they embrace ‘Elves’ or ‘Seafood’ is up to GW) but they don’t need more stuff. Fyreslayers need units. There are four units with little visual diversity and lacking in utility. A boring hero would not solve the biggest issues, and the army is probably dead for another edition without a whole faction (Adding KO would not solve this, it would just make KO worse) The Kill Team boxes have been decent, but overpriced. Shadow Throne and the new Chaos/Eldar Box severely lack in the number of models department (300 points per side). The Battleforces were exquisite, but I fear our new box will be lacking. Box Contents Guess: FS hero (new sculpt), 2x Hearthguard, IDK new Namarti Hero, 10 Namarti, 3 eels. Box Contents Wishlist: 10 Vulkites, 3 man new mounted FS unit, Mounted FS Hero, 10 Namarti, 5 man new Namarti Elite unit, New Namarti Hero
  2. And Happy Holidays to the rest of you. May your hobby motivation be renewed and good blessings be upon you.
  3. A lot of the missing realism got solved by having more wounds on models.
  4. With mention of expansions too. Unfortunately, I think the Bandwagon/Boardgamers Ship may have already sailed away
  5. First Half: Soulblight Gravelords Second Half: Anyone but Sons of Behemat
  6. Khorne could smell the foul stench of the sorcery on the wind. Skulls he sensed, but no fury, no righteous anger, or burning rage, No Blood. For Tzeentch, many of the threads that weaved the fabric of the future turned brittle and then crumbled into dust. A dystopia of order, predictability, and stasis Slaanesh, steeped in the excess and megalomania of Nagash's spell, but then realized there was no joy, no excess, no desires. It would be... dull. Nurgle enjoyed the death the spell brought, but not the lack of life. There was no true rebirth, only a horrible stasis with no respect for entropy The Horned Rat saw a rival. Only he could stand toe to toe with the other Chaos Gods. That was his rightful place, yes-yes. Besides that, if someone was going to ruin the cosmos, it was going to be him.
  7. I like how the spiritual format we already have is mostly hated by the community:
  8. Pricewise all fall in the 290-320 range. So guessing anywhere from $200-225 (usd)
  9. Nice. But no mention of insured printing worries me.
  10. Get your final bets in for Battleforces: New Stormcast Duders Kruleboyz Slaanesh (But only the old daemons, not new stuff) Gloomspite Gitz (Sneaky Snufflers, Rockgut Trolls, and zero shootas or Stabbas) (Yes, I am salty at the lack of new armies among last years battleforces)
  11. The lack of package deals with Fyreslayers has 100% the reason my army isn’t larger than the Start Collecting. It’s literally the Bretonnian/Tomb King Death Spiral all over again.
  12. You’re right. I was thinking this was in £ instead of €.
  13. You’re right. I was thinking this was in £ instead of €.
  14. Ah good, it’s more expensive than the 40K boxes. I was worried GW inflation wasn’t a thing.
  15. The most accurate thing here is Slaanesh, whom we all know prefers bottom.
  16. Are we getting Battleforces this year, or is SpikeyEyeCancer right?
  17. I don't want to sound too insulting for all the work you've probably done as a TO. Only a little This whole comment makes you sound bitter and jaded. It's a compliment. Take the gaddumb complement. Don't assume they thought your comb-over is creepy and disrespected everything else you did because they didn't say anything about it. They had fun and they'll probably be back. My obligation is the entry fee(s), following the tournament rules, being a civilized human being, and keeping myself alive. I have no other responsibilities beyond that. It is literally no concern of mine, nor of anyone else's, despite what the Twitter-stasi would have you believe (They are seriously terrible people. Get off that platform). If you make hundreds-thousands on it, good on you. If you have to reverse mortgage your house to do it, I personally think you're making a mistake, but I'm not gonna stop you. The biggest concern is whether I think I'm getting my money's worth to play at the tournament. $20 entry fee, I'd assume 2D terrain (a la warmahordes). $250, and you better be paying my hotel room (not sure if custom for tournaments, but if using a hotel conference room, you can usually book a block of rooms for visitors so they can make their own arrangements at a slightly discount rate, which I would assume the tournament would offer because there's no charge outside of calling to tell them to close the block a month before). I don't need food if there's a Subway in the same shopping center or across the street, but would expect a catering truck outside if the nearest restaurant is 10+ minutes away and we have five minutes between rounds. By the way, whatever catering you hire is probably operating on extreme profit margins as well. I don't know why you have a cost spot for tables and chairs, because that should be something your venue should have bundled in the rental cost. Maybe I'm wrong, but I just get this feeling that you're working harder, when you should also be working smarter.
  18. My guess is that GW Legal hired a new person and someone just told them to send a YouTuber an NDA, and they sent the New Employee NDA instead of the YouTuber NDA.
  19. My measure of “good model” comes down to “Can I use plastic cement, or do I have to use superglue?” I hate superglue.
  20. Hobgrots are in the Starter Boxes. No sight of Boltboyz. As much as everyone is ragging you, because buying multiples is the way of life, this is correct in regards to Dominion. They didn't expect you to buy multiples of Dominion, because they expected it to have sold out already.
