Ok, now, that's better. I guess all my hype will go for that sweet rat-bt (as I said, I'm beginning to think that we won't have nothing aside from a hero, sigh) but at least GG and ogors are going to be renewed! Will we get new spider and ogors models?

I don't know, if the releases were something we would have already got a "camera potato" preview

Yeah, but i wanted at least the eshin units to receive new models. Doesn't seem like it will happen now if there's already an AoS rerange planned Hope I'm wrong, honestly

Here in Spain both Imperium and Mortal Realms have paints and scenography Really waiting for this to begin here, the content would be very useful for building my secondary army cheapily

Oh boy, no rats?

Oh, cool, because I like a lot the Breakaboss minoature! Only one thing more, how is Gobbapalooza? The models are really awesome, but i don't know if the grots and the boyz benefit a lot from their pressence

First, thanks to the both of you for answering! Um, I was going more towards a moonclan option for the allies because I have so many grots (60), I don't have any troggoths Ok, point taken! Um, I don't have to be limited to comeptitive play, though. I want to start first with narrative play So, first I need more boltboyz and a sudgeraker, for what I see, then I'll start the first expansion of the army with that units! Thanks!

So, as I said in earliwr threads, I'm starting a secondary army of greenskins, more precisely a Kruelboyz + Gloomspite Gitz army My main army would bw kruelboyz because my main aemy are skaven and I want a less hordy army. So what I have is the Dominion + Skull's Pass material: -The 4 heroes from dominion -3 boltboyz -10 gutrippaz -Madcap shaman and loonboss -40 stabbas -20 shootas -10 spider riders Where should I go next? Should I try to buy more dominion sruff? More heroes? More monsters? (I suppose from the moment I won't add ogors, at least until GW hasn't updated the army) Any answer is well received

Plus whitefang giving a hint, and the word "mischief" (group of rats) on the roadmap Hopium, i need hopium

Ok now I have a new enemy

I like to think that GW is being sooo secretist with the skaven/chaos release because it's going to be bigger than a regular starterbox Yeah, I know, it's GW, I just need my daily dosis of hopium

Well, crossing all my 20 fingers for a rats announcement

Kinda weird GW hasn't announced summer battletomes yet. I hope they don't get delayed to August...

RAAAAAAAAAAAAATS YEAAAAAAAAAAH

I still think broodmothers are very outdated and there are better ways to exemplify the horror of skaven biological nature, (sorry, I've been waiting since 2007 for GW to erase them) but you give me an idea Nowadays the BHR has diferent facets, and each clan venerates one. What if the form of creating new skaven varies depending on that clan? Moulder skaven being born from eggs. Verminous skaven evolving from rats chosen by BHR demons. Pestilens rats appearing at toxic wells. Eshin skaven are in fact dead skaven corpses being resurrected by ancient spirits again and again. This could really play well with the lore, we could ignore the breeder's total existence, and FINALLY put some not-so-awaward-to-write-and-play female skavens. I mean, even William King tried to avoid writing them. At the end of the day, my expectations can come as far as that, but, if not, I want GW giving to me some new Eshin models so I can fiiiiiiiiiiinally replace the old monkeys shitting on the battlefield (sorry for the vocabulary but it's what they're literally doing, I mean, look at this losers)

They are because there were literally better ways to represent the dark gothicism of skaven with gender and sex. Everything an author does with the tools given to them represents their views and how to approach this things, and the breeders tell me that GW at the time didn't really have any original idea of how to put evil females into their rat-centric army. Why not have a matriarchy of cruel and evil breeders instead? Or a more direct approach to mysoginism so the writers could make approachments to how this problems exist in our modern society? And that's just what have literally just jumped to my mind right now, you can do a lot of things instead of... that *points to the breeders again* There are already lots of pieces from skaven lore to demonstrate how sinister they are. How they despise everyone else, the slaves system, their cruelty, the grey seer that has a literal court of slaves that have to accompany him so every corner he sees there's someone humiliated, the Council of Thirteen, the anarchy... you have enough stuff to see how ****** evil they are And if GW is going to retcon them so now all skaven are gender-fluid monster born from eggs or whatever... good riddance with them Man, even MANTIC has managed this issue way better

Starter box is fine. I haven't played a lot AoS, but there's a unit that I allways see on skaven armies: Stormfiends. You'll need at least a box of them If you want 3rd party miniatures, prove with Emang, Resinwarfare, Punga, and *sigh* Mantic, which offer better prices and sometimes better models instead of the old ones. Then, again, as a noobie I can´t tell you where to go next. I would recommend maybe the Screaming bell, which is also a normal must-include, and a Master Moulder if you're going to put rat ogres. I think the monks are fine, as well as you run them on units of 20 miniatures. To put together your list and see if it's legal, you can allways check on Battlescribe. There are now some limits to how many reinforced units you can have That said, beware because maybe (MAYBE) this summer skaven are going to receive a new battletome, and I guess GW will launch boxes with offers. There's nothing confirmed yet, um

It embodies the makings of white british guys on the 80s that didn't know how to put females into their games because they never met one Modern GW can do better. There were other ways to use female skavens than some walking raped monsters that most of the times don't even appear on the books because the writers feel uncomfortable writing them.

Btw if they're going to retcon the breeders to be substitued by eggs, I'm totally in That's a part of the old lore that we don't really need in 2022

YES-YES!!! RATS!!!

I can totally see Throt the Unclean returning from oblivion with a new mutation of giant murderous rabbits with warpstone on the ears

Crossing fingers for more rats

If you like speculating about this like things: in a recent tweet I asked GW if the secret mistery are skaven, and they gave me a like

I'm gonna close my eyes, if I close them enough these can be rats
