Honestly, as other people have said, GW needs to give up on points updates in books.
The time from completion to actually being released is large, making it so the points updates are the problems of 9 months ago. Slaanesh for instance getting whacked again because the points were made in mind from a pre-pandemic meta seemingly. It does not address the concerns of the new Slaanesh tome because the GHB was probably off to printers went the new tome actually released this year. -
relieved they nerfed slaangors, what an oppressive unit that was

oooh
so uh, anyone got the book and can educate us on these potential new units -
now that rule book talking is apparently sanctioned by gw, anyone reveal new models in the rule book yet?

Hang on, Bob at war of sigmar says that leak fits some things he knows.
Guess we wait on the Whitefang test.-

So someone on 4chan who "leaked" the reinforcement rule also "leaked" this release schedule for aos 3rd.
2021/2022
Maggotkin, Gitz, Ogors and BoC as the first 4 books after SCE and Orruks. Large releases for Ogors and BoC.
2022
Dawnbringer Crusades (rebooted cities)
Umbraneth and River Temple Lumineth
2023
Chorfs
If this is true I'm quitting aos in protest at Idoneth not getting a new book or models for 4 to 5 years.
It's not uncommon to yoink rumours from somewhere else that hold validity and mix them in with yours when people are making things up. Like some of the earlier rumours where people took Grimdark stuff and mixed in made-up stuff.

Reading this Reinforcement business.
Literally why. I honestly don't see why I should bother with that in any sort of friendly game.
It just seems annoying. The example I saw touted somewhere was Anvils + 12 man Raptor blobs and I'm just like, sounds like the problem in that case is Raptor unit size or the CA, not meriting everyone else's listbuilding to get weird because of it. -
It's fun to banter about factions but overdone and it gets obnoxious.

Anyone else thinking we might see more of the "uber-leaders" for factions come out in 3e?
Most armies have a structure where there's a smaller force that players can fluff out as "their's" that's beholden to a larger organization comprised of many of the smaller ones. I'm talking stuff like Stormcast Chambers to Stormhosts, Flesh Eater Kingdoms to Empires, BoC Beasterds to Greatfrays, etc.
In the case of the Flesh Eaters, we already have an example of this, with (get this) Ghoul Kings leading Kingdoms that are subservient to the Empires of Archregents.
In the case of Ogres, we have Tyrants (who have a model) that lead armies that are under the wider command of Overtyrants (who don't). Stormcast have Lord-Celestants, Aquilors, etc. who lead Chambers that are parts of the wider Stormhosts, headed by Lord-Commanders, who have no table-top presence.
Given that we have examples of this with Archregents and plenty of god-level characters on the field already, I can't see a legitimate reason other armies don't have access to these leaders who exist in the lore, and the whole system seems like an easy way for GW to squeeze out a bit of extra dosh from players with armies that aren't likely to see real releases for a while. Great potential for alternate builds as named characters, too.
That'd be nice.
Some people dislike named characters, but I do like factions having some sort of fieldable bigshot. Gives you something for you to really rally behind and follow their narrative threads. Without such a character you sort of feel like you are on the sidelines.If your faction is all nameless, they tend to not do much in narrative.
Ogors need something. As do Beasts. FEC has their guy, the deadbeat just needs to turn up someday.-

Hadn't seen anything - was Atia or Bob saying anything? The rumours have been around for a while and I think they have weight.

anything on the rumour front with regards to upcoming soup?
atia website comments has people discussing rumoured upcoming soup of dwarves together and wood elves together, no idea if that is a rumour worth any weight -
sure feels like movement trays, formations, and all things square are on the upswing
I gotta say, I do kind of like it, units of large models count are obnoxious to play with/against sometimes due to skirmish style positioning and movement of them. At least now all those rats or whatever will be plonked onto something and pile-in is quicker-

If the 25mm model is on the end in a chain it’s still within 1 inch of two models. An inch is roughly 25.4 mm and so the 1 inch range covers the model directly next to it and the one on the opposite side.
the most powerful base size

well, a lot of units shaping up to be ****** looking at you blood knights with your big bases and 1'' weapons
unit of 5 or bust
cavalry is going to get real weird
edit: the c word that rhymes with trap is censored? that's funny -
Hang on, I just realized that units of 6 should be fine (dracolines bought as 6 for example)
Do the grouping at the ends, once you take one casualty you'll lose coherency but you will have a unit of 5 at this point so your coherency rules change. -

Except for the ends even 10 ogors in a line will be within 2 others, you will just have to have a "triangle" in each end, not the end of the world.
Until you take 1 casualty and then...

Assuming Annihilators are bought in 3s, looks like they might as well have the minimum and maximum unit size the same at 3.

For comparison, Kboyz so far
Dominion
Killaboss Gnashtooth
Shaman
Killaboss
Murknob
Boltboyz
Gutrippaz
Slittaz
Separate
Killbow
Breakaboss
The cavalry of some sort from Grimdark seems really likely, but I won't quite place it yet. -
Indomitus box
Overlord
Warden
Plasmancer
Thralls
Skor Lord
Skor Destroyers
Plasmacyte
Reanimator
Swarms
Warriors
Separate
Chronomancer
Psychomancer
Flayed Ones
Hexmark
Void Dragon
Lokhust Destroyer
Ophy Destroyers
Szaraekh
Doomstalker
Terrain
Szeras excluded due to being a Psychic Awakening thing.
Necrons being the non-posterboy faction analogous to Kboyz.
Judging from the list, if this edition release cycle is anywhere the size of last year's, there are a fair few more things to come.

I think that's beast snaggas
2020-10-27, 2020-12-10, 2021-05-11
(spear, hand nailed, beast trophy) I think remain unsolved and possibly Kruel -
talon is pretty unreliable, 3+ to hit and 4+ to wound means 4 attacks gives 4/3 wounds, I'm assuming you don't roll save and only negate with FNP
generally you might roll 1 die then and it's a 1/6 chance then of actually doing something (the insta-kill), add in FNPs and almost no chance

Maybe an alternate build for Vindictors multipart box. Lets guess... Stormcast with big swords!
Vanguard rename? I dunno.
They can't be new ranged guys, look at the cost of Judicators compared to them. Either the Judicators got a massive buff or the Vanquishers are awful at shooting if they are shooting guys.
