Coherency is now half an inch. It’s going to be so friggin annoying moving models with bits that overhand bases now, boingrot bounders and all of the Night haunt are going to be a nightmare.

They look great, wonderfully grim and positively dark. Now they've shown a remake for the stormcast and Skaven, and today a new unit for the lightning fellas, so next week we might see either official model reveal of the Ratling canon. But I am left wondering what niche these Reclusians will fill, for at a glance I am not so sure what they will be able to do that the Praetors and Annihilators can't already do. The lore snippet makes them sound tanky and immune to most inhospitable effects, but can GW make them standout enough though?

The way you write these messages kinda reminds me of Q-Anon.

GW might have corporate spies here. Let's not do too much of the dirty work for them.

Upper Left corner of the completed mini. Is that an address I spy?

The BoC vanguard box is also in the picture in the bottom left corner...

I just had a thought, what if all these cullings are GW's way of preparing for AoS: Old Realms? In 10 years a new game system will come out, a spinoff of AoS that allows players to use all their old miniatures that were a part of the first 10 years of AoS, and play them using round bases (in AoS 6.0 they switch to hexagon bases).

That is the smartest thing to do in my opinion too, the previous method of tying rules to a subfaction soft-railroaded people into painting their armies a certain way. I've had conversations with a person who were worried that people wouldn't play with them if their flamer-heavy SM army wasn't painted like the salamanders. Or another person who thought they couldn't play their Seraphon army like the coalesced if they did a starborne color scheme. Usually, newer people have this worry, and the only people whom I've ever interacted with who were strongly in favor of the previous system are all hardcore spacemarine players anyway.

Good to have official confirmation that all of these parts of the game will stay, no need to act like 4.0 will be just like the latest edition of 40k. And the manifestation lore sounds to me like the lore of endless spells and incarnates.

"Monkey paw curls" Warcry preorder announced, but they're skipping pyre and flood and going straight to the next box instead.

Guess GW don't want to put too much effort into the marketing of the new and revamped rules before Dawnbringers 6 launches. Launching a rulebook supplement while you're showcasing a new rules set might cause a bit of whiplash from a consumer perspective.

I like them and hope they stay and get expanded upon, but GW's previous actions regarding CoS seem to imply that their inclusion is on borrowed time. I think that the only reason the Privateers weren't cut from the latest tome is that the Malarion Aelves are still quite far away from a release day, but as we come closer to it, the remaining Aelves will disappear from the CoS army.

Sounds difficult to balance. perhaps they changed the rules to something along the lines of each player only being allowed one Endless spell per game.

It's a false mirror. The diorama invokes the sense of a water reflection, but the entire diorama has just been rebuilt upside down.

Definitely one of the greatest Slayer-Sword winning pieces I've ever seen, at least in my top 5. Amazing idea and fantastic execution.
