Give me full on tiki firebellies complete with vulcano mawpit offerings. Give me a unit of giant tiki totem swinging ogors.
I also like a refresh of gutbusters. Leadbelchers and Ironblaster are favourites of mine but the scultps are starting to get a little dated.
If they want me to buy 4th edition tomes again they really need to step up their game. Not add 1 new page of lore and be done with it with all recycled art. The tomes are becoming way to expensive compared to the models imho and it has to be worth the cost.
What if GW is going to remove tomes completely and we are getting something new. AoS is the system where they try out new ideas for 40k. I dont think its likely, but it could happen.
I liked balance within the Nighthaunt tome the most when it was released, at least from the armies i played. It fell off a bit in the end though. Flavourful abilities and special rules and pretty balanced powerlevel units.
If 4th edition doesnt do it ill just stick to playing 3rd edition for a while. There is a lot there for me to keep playing/exploring. It could be better, but imho 3rd was pretty good as far as editions go for GW games.
Got 2 options, any thoughts?
(I could add the burning head, its the only endless spell i own)
This one looks solid with the Troggoths.

This is the second option. The Rabble Rowza and Mollog could reliably put mortal wounds on a target for the Snarlfangs rend. Dont really know what to do with the leftover points though.

Agreed, i think it would be nice to have a 4 to 5 year cycle. Give some attention to the factions and finish them. Give some more space for more tomes and an extra narrative campaign. Also support other formats besides matched play.
I was wondering what would compliment the Snarlfang Riders best in this 1000 point list. Need to figure out what battleline to choose. Chose the Madcap because it can at least target the Snarlfangs.

I think it would be awesome if we get a half size table (750-1000 points) format that is fully supported with battlescrolls and everything. 1 hero 3 units (2 battleline it seems like?). It would be easy marketing. Buy this type of box and u are ready to go and play on this size table. Maybe even put out terrain boxes for smaller tables with setup cards like Warcry.
Yeah thats what i am wondering too XD. Might be so that these can be used for 4th edition and not all vanguards might contain fully supported models? I guess its to avoid that things will be unclear to some people in the future.
I would be thrilled to see indexes for 4th edition. That way i know what models i own are at least supported for another 3 years. I guess we will know soon enough when more tomes are no longer available.
