This weekend is gonna be exciting, looking forward to what people say about the warscrolls in the box. That of course assumes people are getting this ahead of time to review/have a look at of course.
-
The cursed city box is definitely acting as a "Soulblight starter" for me tbh. Even if the warscrolls for the characters aren't great you can still use them as the generic characters instead. Radukar as a vamp lord, Gorslav as a necromancer, etc. And between the bats, skeletons and zombies it seems like a great start to me.
As an aside, there are 42 'villian' models in the box, and counting the picture on the website that would mean there are at least 6 batswarm models and 6 rat swarm models in the box? Or am I miscounting- 2

10th April - ad mech codex + Blood Bowl Spike + Blood Bowl Death Zone.
17th April - broken realms Belakor + Kroak + Gardus + Nighthaunt Hero
24th April - underworld vamps + Soulblight Gravelords
1st May - Sister of Battle
Is this based on anything or further blood rituals and scrying?

@Gothmaug I dont believe they are. The CC ones are easy to build.
They other have more options, a little less flowing robe, and what looks like a different champion.
This Is my guess on the new skellies
• Box of 10-20. Hoping 20
• spear or sword option
•2 champion weapon options. One appears to be a mace and the other a halberd.
•banner carrier bits
•probably enough heads for full armored or just skull.
That's my guess.
I really really hope you're right on the 20 models. The last unit we saw at 20 was the mortek guard? If neither Skeletons or Zombies are at 20 this might be a real expensive battleline/army

So in today's Crimson Court preview we have this:
"The Crimson Court embodies the contradictory aspects of the Soulblight vampires – they are superhuman, highly skilled, refined, and after their own way.* However, they are also bloodthirsty and driven by their hunger to feast on the living. Each of the vampires could succumb to this bloodlust at any time, erupting in an excess of violence that would make a Blood Warrior wince."
Relevant text in bold, it's capitalized in the article and everything, hopefully the name of vamp foot troops? Am I reading too much into it? -
That's a bit weird as they call them bat swarms in the description. Huh, guess we'll have to see when the game comes
-
Honestly that's about what I expected, given the amount of models in the box. Just glad it wasn't more

Seeing as the zombie ogors only come in a pair inside the Cursed City boxed set, i am starting to think maybe they will get a combined warcscroll with Radukar the wolf like some of the Warhammer Underworlds warbands, where they need to be fielded together. The zombie ogors are said to be his personal guard, so it kind of makes sense to have them together with their vampire lord, i think they would be awkward as a unit of 2 models on their own.
I didn't think of this, but it would make absolute sense if they don't get their own kit outside cursed city. Two is a weird number for a unit of things, and I can't imagine them being a single model unit either. Being paired with a character would be cool.

Yay! FINALLY. Now to wait for price leaks, I really hope it's somewhat reasonable XD

Time to hold thumbs, perform rituals and speculate on release announcements for tonight. REALLY hoping we get Cursed City this week. It's been so long GW, please ;-;

Just now, Gothmaug said:
so any speculation on the AOS warscroll for the Underworld Vampire warband? One 4-man unit of brawlers? A leader and three bodyguards ala the Briar queen, or four separate heroes that are independent of one another? Or just one terrible warscroll that no one will use, and just proxy the individual models for Vampire lords? I feel there's a lot of potential for this warband coinciding with the release of Soulblight gravelords, but GW's track record with AOS warscrolls for Underworlds warbands is pretty lackluster.
Goddess I hope they're good. WHU warbands are some of the best models in the range, and the Crimson Court is no exception. The fact that so many of them are completely stuffed in AOS is a travesty

GW seems to still be on the 2 week release rota
Except they just released Drukhari stuff + Lumineth stuff week after week. So I'm not entirely certain. I really hope with the painting videos it's coming sooner rather than later.

So do people think the Cursed City box may be coming with the Lumineth Preorders next week? I'm really itching for it now.

The VLoZD is pretty close to the new Blood Knight design so not necessarily. Plus it's still in use for FEC.
I'm more curious about those spears in the back. The tease video last time showed what looked to be some very long spears/pikes that were out of focus and them popping up on the cover art probably isn't a coincidence.
Apparently the skeletons can be equipped with either spears or swords so it's possibly just a lot more deathrattle
-
God between Cursed City and the crimson court they look more like Soulblight starters at this point XD
-
GOD I hope this box is up for pre-order next week. This just feels mean at this point

Damnation looks like it’s gonna be the Gravelords, but idk about faith. Maybe something to do with 40K?
Likely Admech and Sisters, both are quite faithful to their particular doctrines.

Aw RIP, with Element games doing their previews I was *really* hoping it'd be soon. But looks like it's not to be.

New Vampire model! I love it personally :3

Apparently not. But they did just announce Broken Realms: Belakor so uuuuuh so much for the Aelven gods stuff O_O
-
What's the over/under of Cursed City pre-orders being announced today? I for one really hope they are.

Is that all of them together? Do they need to be taken together?
Also if those are the final points I really hope the battleline units come in 20's. Very unlikely the skeleton box is gonna stay as low as it is right now given GW's prices atm.
