Or it could be generic Orruks? Ironjawz are might makes right, they even look down at the Ardboyz. It will be nice having something in the middle again, the old world Orcs worked so well as you could see where they branched off from, Big Waagh always felt a bit disjointed when i've seen it played as its just two very distinct styles of models with no real overlap.
I can easily see small orruks being smacked around by the bigger ones. It could even be some kind of halfbreed orruk/gobbo/something else. I agree that we need something to tie everything together. I still cant seem to find a place for Kragnos in all this but we will see. I'm still team Gordrakk.

Warclans may have new members! I doubt IJ will like these new lads!
I could be overthinking this but is the animosity rule comming back to give us the old O&G feels? This rule and random movement made the old army feel really alive and fun.

Give giant snow polar bear (Frozen lol XD) model now please.
This also makes me wonder if they will make new Oldhammer models compatible with Aos.

Could it be some kind of figurehead mounted onto some kind of monster/vehicle? I get the feeling it is bigger than a piece of armor.

I changed my mind, it looks way to much like this underworlds model imo. I think it's Seraphon related at least.

It actually feels quite Druid/classic wood elf to me! The quiver the fur beast trophy, maybe even on the verge of drow like hunter! But elves this soon? I don’t know about that one!
I actually think this could be wood elves or something alike. These rumours can take a year or more before we see some kind of model.

Since i've seen the trailer i am getting some serious swamp creature vibes from the Witcher 3. I can see GW making the theme fit the AoS universe with their own creatures and greenskinz.
Edit: Also the water hag reminds me of the troggoth hag and fits the theme. New plastic hag maybe?

yeah, but that was a case of very different units competitively invalidating each other, which happens, and being in the same faction to begin with was kind of an oddball fluke decision on GW's part. grimghasts were better than grave guard, but in their core concept and aesthetic they weren't just 'grave guard 2, the newer better grave guard'.
But yeah, stormcast range is already too big, and it's definitely a problem. I don't collect non-undead factions, but while most armies in the game are still at least a little tempting (Idoneth in particular are cool enough that I still might be tempted into starting an army of them if they ever fix their internal balance problems), I wouldn't touch Stormcast with a 10 foot pole. Not because of the models, concept, or play style, just because I wouldn't know where to start, and I wouldn't feel confident that whatever I did start with would still be a functional army 5 years down the line. And with my glacial hobby pace, that matters to me. Heck, I'm just now getting ready to paint the von carstein family models I bought back in like 7th edition.
I can relate to this. I dont really care about replacing some older models with newer sculpts, but i dont like them invalidating older model by not updating their rules. I dont like powercreep. Imo people will always buy new sculpts because people like new shiny things. No need to remove old models from battletomes or dont update their rules to a new standard to keep older models relevant.
(Still got Isle of blood Skaven to build)

I do wonder whats happening with Nighthaunt models in Gravelords. Any news on that?

I suspect Necromunda will be a more comprehensive look at the forthcoming Delaque faction book and expansion kit. Titanicus might be a new titan, they've ramped up mentions of the Rapier recently, but equally it could be the promised Traitor Legios book and possibly something to do with corrupted/daemonic titans. Idoneth is a slam dunk for WHU though.
Warcry really is the wildcard though. Now they have books for the four GAs and a fairly brisk rate of online/WD updates to account for new faction expansions and BR campaigns, they have quite a bit of room left open for whatever comes next. Whatever it is, those sigils in the Catacombs book do seem pretty plausible as new warband leads.
I would like to see some new themes in Warcry terrain sets.

Let's be honest here - you are not going to win many matched play games by taking 680 points of random heroes. We can assume they won't have any battalions and their rules are simply symbolic. I really don't understand why they kicked their customers by making it obligatory to take all of the CC or none basically.
Its never meant to be anything good for matched play. They just let u use them with some rules for people to have some fun with them in AoS. They cant force anyone who wants a comp army to buy cursed city or any other boxed games for that matter just because there is a limited run model that is OP in some way.

I don't understand how that follows. The Mortarchs wield enormous power, but they don't need to be physically large to do so. This seems similar to asking: If Jeff Bezos is so rich, why isn't he built like Hafthor Bjornsson?
Anyway, Nagadron was destroyed and Arkhan is dead so I'm not sure that the Mortarch kit can really be considered "current". I would presume the vampire Mortarchs will get a model update at some point.
I want to add to this that i dont mind each alliance getting a huge model. But i dont want every powerfull character to also have a huge model. I dont mind a bit of upscaling but i dont want AoS to feel like a skirmish game at some point. If everything gets huge it also loses its impact and they have to make even bigger models. We need the smaller models to be able to appreciate the bigger ones imo.

I also think Kragnos looks a bit out of place at the moment. But i do think he opens up a way to a new destruction faction being released.

I am trying to find something in this picture and wanted to mention the single Boggleye Gobbapalooza model behind the Ardboyz. Couldnt really find anything else and i am still hoping i can run the single models somewhere in the future.
-
Yeah i'm also wondering about time frames. They are releasing new stuff at a ridiculous pace at the moment. Not that i'm complaining about that haha. I was looking forward to a bit more stuff on the Destruction factions and not only Kragnos. I'm keeping my hopes up for friday at the moment.

So, I know they said we've seen all the SGL stuff ... But, I don't see how that can be true unless I'm missing something .... No terrain price? ... No endless spells? .... Doesn't seem right to me
They have to save some stuff fo get released another time i guess.

I feel like Gordrakk will still lead his own Waaagh. Kragnos reminds me of that one guy at the party to join for some good krumpin while it lasts. Next day its back to worruk.

This already happened :). Bat squig mounted gobbos next?

what it's standing on looks slightly similar to nordic/slavic arch designs, which would make what's underneath it icicles? i'm leaning more towards vamp wolves than riding wolves.
heck, maybe it's a Skaven wolf rat standing on a Seraphon arch
Nothing else to say.

The Rumour Thread

I think something along these lines could be fun. I dont think army rules should always be just buffing the army and force u to play in the same way every time. It could just add some flavour to the army as well. I get that some people want tournament rules to be better than the next army but thats not for me. I just want some casual fluffy and fun games. I've had some of the best times playing whfb where some orcs and gobbos started fighting and a troll started drooling while a hellcanon misfired/ exloded and killed itself with all kinds of artillery fire bouncing around through infantry lines and have them fleeing from battle. It was chaos in its best form. I am hoping some of these things find its way back to aos 3.0.
(i know whfb also had a lot of crappy things going on but these were to good ones imo)
