Solid list here! I'd add kitbashing and/or diorama videos alongside the contest idea; but these being cooperative or more demonstrative than competitive. They definitely need to credit all their artists and voice actors ASAP, it is a huge shame this wasn't done in the credits or episode description itself...

Ogors being in every Grand Alliance makes sense, but I agree that it's super weird to get Order ogors before Beastclaw and Gutbusters get anything new? Especially when BCR were made for AOS. They could use some new infantry.

there IS that book RE that we're still waiting on! I was really hoping it would be AOS

And all two sentences that they let him say about his City... great models though, good to see he expanded into dwarves

came here to say the RE is probably upside down since you wouldn't hold a sheathed axe... of course it's from a 40k model already released 😅

The literal lynchpin lore of Stormcast is that they are mortal souls that got saved to be reforged into Stormcast... like it's actual soul magic mate... not even worth responding to the rest of your post.

The big Russian WHF Larp has like a battalion of Skaven cosplayer iirc. I wouldn't be surprised if they've build a Horned Rat or Verminlord effigy photos too big to share, here's a link https://www.belloflostsouls.net/2016/09/this-massive-warhammer-larp-is-amazing.html

they're still not marines and BL book quality is always dependent on how restrictive GW is with the author

I love that you can say one word and send us all into shambles...

Forgot the T in there whoops! But thank you for the more accurate translation. This is extremely interesting news 👀

Bone Monaseries of the Askurgan? I am guessing "Askurgan" is a whole AOS word to itself? 😮

I know GW teases can be pretty opaque but there is no way that teaser is not a new knight kit!! I think the only debate is what creature said knight will be lancing from

It's probably the reason all of the naming is... Like That yeah. Final signoff for production would've needed some kind of IP guarantee. I'm not so sure we should peg the entire design process on it though, since the reimaginings are a better standout against WHF, DND, Tolkien, etc etc--there was certainly a core design idea to make AOS uniquely high fantasy.

Not at all what I said or meant You know as well as I do that GW doesn't tell us jack. Which is another reason to not be surprised by this rumor. The older a model is, the more chance it has to become a proxy instead of a current model. This was happening even in WHF when people would bring older elf and human models instead of buying the refreshed/new plastic versions. If your new book has warscrolls that older models can slide into even as WYSIWYG, you can still use those older models for as long as you want. The only GW rule against models is no non-GW models at tournaments. The now-COS models were all old, no one really knew what was happening with them aside from the Legends Warscrolls. When COS got announced as a way to ACTUALLY use those legends units in AOS, it was more about GW giving older armies a legitimate play book and providing another mortal army based on the new Order cities' lore. There was never any guarantee the old models would stay, only that you would be able to use those models via proxy.

Is it really *actively* stopping people though? When COS was first announced it felt like the people who wanted to play it had a general understanding that they could proxy most/all of their old stuff with the warscrolls provided? For example, it didn't include High Elf spears or archers, yet you could easily count them as Eternal Guard and Crossbowmen respectively. Like I understand the frustration but also this should've been expected, and proxying has always existed with wargaming.

Was there ever an announcement about the Narrative event winners and what that meant for the current AOS/40k narrative??

Do you have Dominion? It fits perfectly, and buying both means the only Thunderstrike models you're missing are Bastian, Knight Judicator, and the chariot I love it!! Got mine at an LGS so a little cheaper and it helps keep a local store alive.

Stormkeep could probably be an entire campaign unto itself too iirc descriptions from @Baron Klatz

sky ships, water ships, any kind of megastructures like cathedrals, ossuaries, indoor markets, transport station, etc!! There's so many places!

I agree, there's so much more than open battlefields in (high) fantasy settings... would absolutely love to see a proper 500-1000 point game for AOS.

It can replace current sculpts: judging from all the preview pics, you can make 5 blowgun and 5 melee chameleons. They come in 5s on tabletop so the 5 blowgun sculpts you can fit right in.

Yeah it's...preeeeeetty bad it is easier to mass-order things from the UK to ship here now

Either one would be fine tbh, though I hope it's not too much Lizard stuff or i won't have room ;_;

in pounds or for the rest of us?
