To all the people who doubt that the Fyreslayers box won't have a magmadroth... have you guys seen the other boxes?

Every box except possibly one exception has 2 units of troops, a hero, and an elite. That's the format.

I can't see this box not having the magmadroth kit. It would have nothing that looked remotely interesting otherwise, just a bunch of naked dwarves with no centerpiece model.

I mean, one of the boxes has the morghast kit in it? pestilens has a screaming bell, aaannnnd warp lightning cannon? I think we will see the magmadroth kit price drop, and i think it is more than likely we will have a droth in this SC

The forsaken expedition (an offshoot of my army, the steel pilgrims), just getting started on them! A small expedition of scouts led by a sorcerer (Andrus) into an ancient Aelf temple came upon a sacred crown of writhing gold. After dispatching its spectral guardians, Andrus placed it on his brow whereupon it fused to his skin and twisted his mind and body to mirror its own insanity. While Andrus was able to mitigate the crown's worst effects, his companions were mutated into hideous caricatures of their former selves by the insane aura of the relic.

From left to right - Madman, Stilts, Andrus the Twisted, The Triplets, and Bird-boy.

the artwork for this game plus the addition of TK units in GHB2 seem to point to something... or maybe its just me being overly hopeful

They aren't bringing back tomb kings something for death i'm sure, but they're looking forward, not backward.

So Hastings called the Deathguard release including the extra models. It would seem his sources are still good.

Where are you guys reading updates on this/?

Any speculation as to what the new specialty game is? They teased that it would have new miniatures!!! Also, thoughts on the new starter set? Personally I think the coloured plastic is an excellent idea. I love the box doubling as a building.

People shouldn't treat the smaller factions as though they are intended to be played on their own. The intention is that you would not play a 100% spiderfang grots army... they only have 3 models. I guess you could, but it would be very boring to paint. Smaller forces are intended to function as groups in larger armies.

Glass cannon? 6 wounds and only dies on a 1. Each time a wound that would kill him is dealt he has a 16.7% chance of death (the same odds of passing his 6+save). A 33.3% chance of recovery. And a 50% of wound negation... you underestimate his survivability because of the low save. Plus his wise council buff is legendary.

Fair game. But man, that is a dumb choice for a grombrindal mini... yuck.

[The Rumour Thread]

Why is everbody assuming that it is the unforged repackaged? Why are others so confident that it will be the slaughterpriest? Thb, i doubt that either the unforged or the slaughterpriest will be the model. It will be a grombrindal likely given that his teaser links to the subscription. It wont be one theve released before, seeing as they said as much in the leadup. And i really doubt they would just release an old slayer model and call it grombrindal, that would be ridiculous, they dont look anything alike.
