    AoS 2 - Hedonites of Slaanesh Discussion

    in Hedonites of Slaanesh

    Posted

    GW is hyping our new Hedonites, by the way of sensory deprivation.

    Well, the models are among the best GW has ever produced and artwork is very good.  I do believe that hero and unit stats and rules will be quite good too.

    So, let us wait a little more, we will know where we stand as faction soon.

    @Popisdead

    Yeah, I am the guy asking for BL novel dedicated to Hedonites. I have read all the short stories of AoS that focus on Slaanesh, Garden of Mortal Delights included.  A very interesting story and I do recommend it.

    I think the article says this has changed - pretenders now see themselves as the only people deserving of  Slaanesh's attention :)

    Article says that, true.

    But that is not a English definition of word pretender.

    Host of Pride?

    Sigvald is not a Pretender. Pretenders see themselves as successors to Slaanesh.

    In Golden Son story, the moment that twin headed snake  appears and orders Sigvald to march alongside Glutos to Excelsis, he obeys instantly.  Even if he and Glutos were on brink of murdering each other a moment before.

    They should have made completely new Hosts.

    Also, I am now really suspecting that Hedonite rules will not change as a whole in any meaningful way. We will just get some beautiful mortal miniatures.

    I hope tomorrow proves me utterly wrong.

    Some room for some tasty centrepiece Avatar of the Hunt style models.

    Obviously they'll have to make it significantly different from giganto-cow (lumineth big cow dude).

    GW take my money 🤣

    ...after i've bought Cursed City of course.

    I still think that they'll include a kurnothi archer. That's what I'm calling as the wanderer archer.

    Win-win 😉

    Honestly, as someone who was a fan of Orion in WHFB and has read the Dark Harvest book, Kurnoth coming back would be magnificent.  When I read his monologue in Dark Harvest, it is truly chilling. He is a deity of Green Mother Earth...red in tooth and claw.  His moral question offered to protagonist of the book is really challenging one.  To be blunt, I think Kurnoth would be one deity that Chaos worshipers would be literally scared shitless of meeting.

    Avatar of the Hunt centerpiece would be amazing.

    Kurnothi elves are, hands down, probably the most interesting concept of elves in AoS for me.

    What rules preview are we hoping for today? Personally, I'm hoping for a look at allegiance abilities, but Glutos and Sigvald are a close second

    Allegiance rules would be good, to gauge the way where new Hedonites are going.

    I have to say that I am still hoping for a Black Library book or two dedicated to our faction. 

    And in Slaanesh name, let them actually win one instead of losing like in every short story.

    I am curious (if a little worried) that our daemon side and core rules won't see much of a change. Maybe I'm wrong, but with hosts staying the same and that mentioning "3 additional battalions" (in addition to our current 4), it sounds like a lot of the rules are supplementary.

    That said, no mention of depravity points which is good.   

    We will see in day or two.

    That being said, you are most likely correct in your prediction.  GW will want to sell the mortals and the rules for daemons are probably not going to change in any meaningful way. 

    Shame about Fiends, I love their sculpts.

    Honestly, it is amazing.

    After years of waiting for new Slaanesh mortals, the only true God of Warhammer universe, our divine mistress Slaanesh has blessed us!

    I should have clarified, I love glass canon playstyle. Not just in GW products, I do play Legion of Everblight in Warmachine/Hordes.

    It is lore fitting for us to be glass canon faction. That being said, I would like to build a Hedonite tank list.

    Something based around Glutos, Myrmidesh and Slaangors maybe?

    The Decadent Wall-shield?

    It will be the largest disappointment in all of human history if Slaanesh isn't announced for preorder tomorrow. 

    We will get our new range, I am just hoping that rules are good.

    I am mildly worried that some units will be left irrelevant or made irrelevant. Fiends, possibly Slaangors.

    Twin souls? Hammer? Painbringers? Anvil?

    Also, I think that playing without Sigvald or Glutos will be rather difficult.
