That's a pretty brutal looking axe
I think it's safe to say I'm going to have a lot of fun with this faction.

If this is the look for the Cruel Boyz than I'm pretty excited. It kinda reminds me of the Weird Nob shaman, gangly with weird totems and jagged weapons and armor, can't wait to see more.

In main setting Greenskinz don’t have genders
But in bizarre parallel world such as bloodbowl female orc is a thing
They are called “The Waaaghs (Wifes AAAnd GHerlfriendS)“ and generally larger and stronger than male orcs
I used The Waaaghs for some Anvil of Apotheosis characters, great models honestly

I will beg GW for female Dwarf models until they day I die at this rate.
Where's my badass Runemothers or Female Admiral?Something I really enjoyed about the recent WD Wanderer stories was some of the badass Dwarf ladies. The story of the bar owner was a personal favorite.

so grimdark live says the name of the new box is called Dominion.
the goblinoid army is called the cruel boys/z?
they look like LOTR orcs so all mangled looking and such.
They have a unit called hobgobs who apparently trade to get weapons and armor from Chaos Dwarves!
Warboss is on a weird squig/wolf/bear critter
Shame with a black pot being stirred by a snotling.
I don't even care if it's not true, this sounds awesome

Creepers
excerpt from the last page of the Behemat tome:
"Olag sat deep in his cave, slow thoughts sliding like icebergs in the dark waters of his mind.
He closed his good eye for a moment and listened hard, his forearms on his knees and his back flat against the wall where the strange paintings appeared as he slept. Sometimes, the night before a big fight, pictures appeared on his skin, too. Patterns of red, white and black. His hair got twisted all regular at night, sometimes and he heard skittering and scuffling on the cusp of hearing as he woke. He'd given up getting angry about it, given up punching the cave walls in frustration that someone or something was messing with him while he slept. It was the Creepers that did it, those pale, dirty little stick figures that always kept out of sight. Stick figures, like on the walls. Sometimes he heard them whisper-singing, in the tunnels, or saw torchlight glinting from eyes in the dark. "Olag. Olag. Olag the Great", they chanted in their weird hollow voices. It wasn't so bad, especially when they left him food. They could stay he thought, so long as they stayed well out of sight. (...)
Back at his cave, Olag poked at the wound in his knee, wincing as the Creepers dug the sting-rocks out of his back. He could hear them whispering, feel their ropes tugging his mantle back into place, even feel their feet on his skin. He let it slide. They would sew up his wounds after a fight, just as they did his rags"
I completely forgot about this, this is really cool. Part of me wants to say Silent People (obviously), the creepers in a cave and silent people live in mountains. The creepers are described as skittering, pale, dirty little stick figures that always kept out of sight. Silent People stay out of sight and move around when not looked at. The Creepers speak to Olag in hollow whisper voices, and The Silent People make Insectoid chittering sounds.
Honestly even if it isn't Silent People in this story and is instead the Boglins, I wouldn't care. The speculation is really fun.

So I've been looking over the swamp base on the new Stormcast Character to see if the architecture can give us an clues as to what our mystery faction might be. For starters the stone work is mostly in ruins and submerged by the swamp, it's likely whatever civilization built these structures have abandon them or no longer actively maintain them. Next we have the line and dot runes on the steps, the arch, and this unsolved rumor engine; I look for similar designs elsewhere and the closest in style I could find was from old Fimir artwork and even then it's not an exact match. We also have horned head pattern on both arches, I personally doubt it's beastmen as they are the completely anathema to the idea of a structure of this kind. As a bonus I decided to look through some paw types to see if I could find a match, it looks to have five toes so I don't think it's a wolf, it could be a bear but the structure is off. Then I look at a squirrel paw and surprisingly there where some similarities, correct number of toes, claws, but slightly different structure. While I definitely hope ore mystery animal is a Petra Squirrel I also wouldn't be disappointed if it wasn't. I do however hypothesis that the latest rumor engine is a slain version of our mystery animal.

So I was looking through a bunch of different swamp and marsh dwelling species that might make for interesting units and mounts. Giant mosquitoes as flying mounts, giant snapping turtles as behemoths, and with that squirrel on the new characters base maybe we could see the ptera squirrel coming to AoS.

This gunna be them, or something new entirely?
Personally I don't think so, the information we have on the Silent People indicates they live in the predatory mountains in Ghur. My guess is Boglins and Fimir

If Boglars are being made official, here are some other goblinoids that might be interesting

I could see the new faction being an AoS version of this picture.

So does anyone else think these rumor engine pics are part of the new Boglin faction?

Anything human based would be more popular than an ugly race. That is the the thing. We love playing humans in fantasy universes.... dont think that is a valid argument against anything abhuman imo.
I personally hate humans and would rather not have them in Destruction. Give me monsters any day.

Just finished looking through the article and it looks like there's a lot of interesting things in this card pack. The article is a good summary of some of the Silent People info so far but nothing new, but the cards they have shown are full of interesting little details. I will definitely be going over the cards individually once they are out.
I would also like to thank many of you for sharing enthusiasm for the Silent People and for validating my love of Arthropods.

More Silent People!! https://www.warhammer-community.com/2021/05/07/keep-it-quiet-but-heres-a-look-at-the-silent-menace-deck-for-warhammer-underworlds/
I would say this is final confirmation they're going to be insectoids; lots of swarming cards, and things like acid attacks or chitin armor
Oooh, I'll be dissecting this late for sure!

As someone who has been building GA Destruction from the start of, Kragnos is absolutely amazing! I love the bronze age styling on the armour, and combined with the lore he feels like something out the epic of Gilgamesh. Definitely adding Kragnos to my Destruction army!

What are silent people? The pic looks elvish to me? Are silent people some kind of elves? For me it looks 100% like a sylvaneth Model. Elven ears, and the upper thing looks like a tree
The Silent People are an Insectoid species that live inside the living mountains of Ghur in a symbiotic relationship. They are tied to the cycle of Ghur and will enter a larval stage to pupate inside amber, depending on the cycle. They also build/collect artifacts and armour to modify their abilities.
I personally agree that this latest rumor is Sylvaneth, and likely has nothing to do with The Silent People.

The mentioning of The Silent People has roused me from my long dormancy, and with it I say...
I unfortunately don't think they will get a model or army for many years, if even that, but they are still really cool and I hope they get something at some point.
