Anyone got tips on how to paint any of the internal glowing effects, really like the blue and green glow?
Kelly said this in the interview:
Prime wraithbone -> contast paint orange/red -> drybrush black

I'm probably going for the Petrifex Elite or the Crematorians. Likely the Crematorians. However with my own colour scheme of course. They look great but I have already decided on a colour scheme. ^^
-
The fact that there's also a SC box for StD listed in that leak suggests that there won't really be new models unfortunately.
At least they are getting Endless Spells I guess.

There is a big long part in the middle about how not buying led to the game going away. So I guess yes I read it differently than you?
That's where context is important. The two parts are related. You can't just read one and ignore the other.

I do not see the do more part. I just read the ‘do not tell them to vote with your wallet’. The reads to me more as a don’t do this, do that instead.
Really now? o_O

Post photoshops of changes you'd like to see and discuss conversions that can be done to fix the parts you don't like. Even if you're still not going to collect and play the army yourself, it's very easy to inspire somebody else who might've thought differently and might love the paint schemes/conversions you have. Doing that sort of thing is how you improve the game, not by ignoring what's in it.

Gnoblars are absolute winners. Love the little guys.
In fact the whole Ogor BB team is the first I've liked in quite a while. Too bad I don't really play that game.
The Warcry models are great, especially the chaos dwarf and the female with the mace.

I don't get this at all. I like the Bonereapers, for the most part, but this sort of thought is so strange to me. The "buy the models even if you don't like them" may be one of the least rational parts of the wargame community.
He didn't say to buy the models even if you don't like them though. He just said if you don't like them do more than just not buying them. Talk about what you don't like about them. Raise awareness. Otherwise nobody (aka GW) knows what the issue is with them for sure.

Hey how did you edit the photo for color scheme ideas?
In photoshop you can adjust the hue of pictures. If you cut out specific parts and put them on a separate layer you can change the hue of just those parts.
There's also the colour replacement tool in photoshop too.

They already said that you can take Arkhan and Nagash as part of a Bonereaper army. Not as ally, but as a proper part of it.
The "can take" and the fact that Bonereapers already have their own Mortarch implies that neither will be part of them by default. It's just an option.
-
I'm confident, that GW simply doesn't care. It's a nice gimmick to new releases and if they happen to be useable then good but if not then they have the excuse that they are just something to collect so who cares.
I'm lucky that my Blood Angels dice are useable as well as that they look great. Something that unfortunately can't be said for some of the other faction's dice.

“Truly there is indeed a silent unseen majority who agree with me”. You know, this rings hollow pretty much everywhere, from the makeup of political parties to the opinions on board games
He didn't say anything about majority and neither did he say anything about he himself leaning into the one or the other direction. All he said is that people who are happy with something are less likely to go and post about it online, which is a fact. Like it or not.

i expect that it will be a summoning rather than healing mechanic, earning points for nearby casualties, and spending points to summon new units from a list. That's just guess work, though.
They already said that Bonereapers won't have any summoning mechanic. Just healing and resurrecting.

Weird when you hit the "gnoblar" link in the Community article it takes you to the store to an obvious WHFB box and really bad looking Goblins with weird noses that look like cartoon bird beaks or something. So far from the quality of the Gloomspites. Hope there are rules for the new Underworld Wolf Riders to be used in a Mawtribe army.
How dare you call them bad looking Goblins. Their huge noses and ears is what make Gnoblars look so much better than any Goblin lol

- You can take a Gnoblar Horde via the Junkmob battalion. It's a battalion of only Gnoblars that makes them kinda good (not specified how).
Tempting, but I won't fall for that madness again this time. I had a Gnoblar army with the White Dwarf rules back in WHFB 7e and it had more models at 1000p than literally any other army at 2000p.

See I don't think this is actually good advice. Carrion Empire came out like 8 months ago and there's no sight of the Archregent or Bombardier being released soon. Looncurse came out five months ago and the only Arch-revenants on eBay are selling for hundreds of dollars. These are clutch models for all three armies and if you're looking to get in to them you're basically SOL. By the time the meta has sorted out whether or not the unique models in the dual box are competitively viable, they've been unavailable for months and unlikely to be available anytime soon.
So you're stuck with the proposition of either:
- dropping money now to get models you potentially don't want and will potentially be poor competitively
- holding off and hoping that the models aren't necessary for competitive builds or that this time GW will do things differently and release the unique models in a reasonable amount of time (I doubt it).
Which is all made even more frustrating because it appears to be purely a business decision, since releasing the unique models individually would likely cannibalize the ****** out of the dual box sales.
Damned if you do, damned if you don't 😔Can't say I can confirm that. Pretty much all boxset character models are available on ebay for reasonable prices so if you really think you need them after the boxset sold out you can likely get them from there still.
Also there's always the option for kitbashes/conversions. If you can't get your hands on a particular model, build one that looks the part yourself. If I end up thinking I really really want this Bonereaper character in my army because his rules fit so well or whatever then I'm definitely going to build my own version because he's easily my least favourite Bonereaper model they've shown so far.

For all we know the figure in the artwork was just some abstract soul-like form that's now put inside a bonecrafted body.
That being said Katakros must be one hell of an impressive guy considering what Kelly said in the interview. When Nagash was about to destroy his city Katakros went to Nagash and offered to work for him ... and instead of dismissing/smiting/eating/whatever the foolish mortal, Nagash actually looked into his achievements and went "Yup, you are the real deal. Be the Mortarch of my pet project legion".

The whole 'they're collector's items' thing just sounds like making excuses for GW.
Why can't they have form and function?
Some do, some don't. It's just how it is.

Im trying to come up with a paint scheme that makes the army look more like the tomb kings. What do you think? Any suggestions are more than welcome.
Haha I was doing something similar, however not necessarily with the aim to make them look more like actual Tomb Kings in general, just to make them please my personal aesthetic preferences and the red colour as homage to my old TK army.
I definitely didn't get the gold right though but it's good enough as a mockup I'd say.

I don't think they'll phase out zombies etc.
If they'd do Death would kinda lack the mindless horde aspect as neither FEC nor Nighthaunt nor Bonereapers would fill that role. Vampires and Skeletons I could see since Bonereapers do have some of the "individual and autonomous" aspect of Vampires and are also bone-boys, but only if we ignore that Vampires are still regularly featured in novels.So really only Skeletons maybe as they kinda overlap with what zombies would be (cheap horde-ish infantry you can keep resurrecting easily) and with Bonereapers for obvious reasons.

I think I am missing something here (still quite new to the hobby), but I thought that reroll failed saves was, well, save rolls that you didn't make. Im starting to think I have been playing wrong and my Sequitors aren't as beefy as I first thought.
Let's see if I can get this myself:
Basically it means that if an attack has -1 rend and I have a 4+ save (so need a 5+ on the roll), I can't re-roll the 4, because I technically "pass" because my save is 4+? So I can only ever re-roll anything 3 or less (if my save doesn't get buffed /debuffed etc)?
If that is the case then I have defffffinitely been playing wrong. The group that got me into it basically simplified it that rend basically changes your save characteristic, and doesn't change the actual roll (leaving your save characteristic untouched).
That's because re-rolls happen before modifier. Before modifier you technically passed your 4+ save so the re-roll doesn't apply. After modifier you failed your save but you are past the point where you could have re-rolled it.

That Arch-Kavalos is on a round base, right? Certainly not a 90 oval.
Definitely round and yeah 90mm sounds about right when the regular infantry is 25mm.

I love everything you said. People always complain about OP armies and then list like 6 OP armies. 6 competitive armies ain't bad for a list of T1s! Then everything else with a 2.0 tome is T2? Great! Most games can only hope for that level of balance across that much material. This game does a fantastic job considering the sheer number of armies with unique mechanics that there are to balance as well as the decent variety in scenario types. Balance can be hard to achieve with games that only have 3-4 armies and a single objective (i.e. starcraft). And yeah, things could be better and we should push for more balance of course, but you have to temper that with realistic expectations (given the amount of stuff there is to balance) and an appreciation for the state we're currently in. Criticism is only helpful when it's true and balanced.
Yeah 6 T1 armies is pretty much the best competetive warhammer has ever been as far as I can tell. ^^

The Harvester is definitely not small. Just not gigantic. More like Dreadnought sized for the 40k players amongst us.

Heck GW straight out said they got told by the playtesters that the Iron Hands rules would be too powerful but they wanted to see how the community will react first. 😅

Love the Endless Spells. Finally more than just mortal wound spam and the one that does spam mortal wound is a bit more interesting compared to other Endless Spells due the Soul-Linked thing where the Caster keeps control but can't cast other spells as easily anymore.
