Do we know if any of the cities have new colour schemes (iirc the greywater fastness is supposed to have been updated?)

They'll still be oozing with character when they've gotten a trim. When I paint and build stuff I do not want to create minis which try and draw your attention everywhere at once. Which is what some of these are suffering from.
Oh I fully believe your guys are going to look awesome
Just the sort of haphazard appearance works for the theme GW is wanting to put forward for them - just as the excess of detail wouldn't work for a "cleaner" faction like Lumineth.

The models are so ridiculously busy with detail it really detracts from the quality of the models themselves (which are high).
That said, nothing some green stuff, a file and clippers can't solve.
Absolutely disagree, the detailing is all part of this factions character imo

Very much like the tattered weathered look you gave the coats, and super nice job on the rusted axes 🤙

Yeah with the Chaos Dwarves idea it was really completely out of the box - like, seraphon are referred to as order daemons now, I was wondering if Hashut could become some kind of god of destruction daemons. I'll be perfectly happy if they come out and are still chaos
20 minutes ago, Neverchosen said:Some thoughts:
-I think silent people can fit in as a weird deathly insect/beast army,Perhaps yeah - like flesh eating maggots or something? Still think having them as a cloud of locusts would work better as destruction
-I also think that a Duardin Death army could be cool and showcase different death rituals with entombed terracotta duardin and also give the ability to chose between following Nagash and Gazul for major subfactions.I thought the idea of Death Duardin was madness until I read the bit about entombed terracotta warriors/clay golems - that would be really cool, though not sure it would be best as Duardin, perhaps as Aelves? Or even Ogors?!
-I have always wanted something to showcase the living followers of Nagash and to be lead by beautiful angels of death like in Evelyn De Morgan's famous painting https://www.demorgan.org.uk/collection/the-angel-of-death-i/
Something about the promise of becoming a beautiful seraph in the afterlife only to have the lore showcase that these are constructs of Nagash to promote reverence and worship.Yeah i think living servants of Death remains the best avenue to study an expansion of the GA - perhaps half living necromancers and attendants, and half flesh golem frankensteins, or Mr Hyde types, bring in all the remaining gothic horror tropes that are missing from the GA - think along the lines of that WHU warband, perhaps expand into zeppelin sky whale corpses or something to act as Death's answer to KO

So Here's an out of the box thought: what if chaos dwarves/oathbreakers were placed in grand alliance destruction rather than chaos?
While one of their old themes was tyranny (which is more aligned with chaos and death), most of their other themes aren't really chaos centric IIRC.
Something along these lines would allow both for further expanding Destruction, and for a greater ease of allying hobgoblins and wolf riders between them and kruleboyz/gsg

I thought this would a given In this addition. A bestial Warcry box similar to the furies/raptorex and 'beastmasters' box similar to the malign sorcery endless spells, complete with beasts based on the different realms. We then got the incarnate which I thought would be First of several but .....
Oh man, yeah, a box of the new wildercorps trackers and kruleboyz beastcatchers competing to kill or catch a set of monsters would be awesome and make perfect thematic sense !
-
Considering their mention of large tracks in the context of their use in warcry, I can totally see the new season starter being these guys versus Troggoths or Ogors - in which case I might just have to pick it up

There's room for more than one range refresh per edition, we'll have had, what, 4 during AoS 3.0, if the FEC rumours hold? I would not be at all surprised to see updated ranges for skaven, ogors, and BoC over the course of the next edition.
For sure, but it read to me like Brodd was talking about the faction tie-in between Dawnbringers and 4th edition, like how Kragnos was a tie in between Broken Realms and the 3rd edition starter

Oh mate it honestly hadnt occured to me that Book II would have anything but Order and Warclans but if it does have a more Destruction focus we could have a Broken Realms situation with a mini released and then the range refresh for Mawtribes happening next Edition!!
Sorry to burst your bubble but it seems more likely that Skaven are going to get that treatment, as the 4th ed starter seems more likely to have a chaos faction in it. But then, this is mostly baseless supposition

For those that haven't been alive as long as the current skaven range... what is this guy?

Weren't skaven part of the starterbox for this season? Not that that means it can't be them as Khorne had two teams in the first season

I suspect Seraphon in the new Underworlds Core box, it would satisfy this Skink-y rumour engine
While this is probably wishful thinking on my part, this pot with smoke seems to fit more with the Arabian nights aesthetic of hedonites, potential with some kind of ~~daemon~~ "genie" summoner?

You say this jokingly, but I'd be all over this! 🥰

They seriously chose to change their formula to avoid Slaanesh and give us extra stormcast rather than Destruction?! Very disappointing imo, I was feeling really excited to buy my first warcry boxset...
What's the point of putting a season of warcry in Ghur and not giving destruction a warband?!
Edit 1: Apparently I may have overreacted too fast...Edit 2: Nope, hopes dashed again...

Tbh i think this is a learning thing, if you play again and he never takes dice all has to worry about is mitigating eophoric killers to gut your depravity

Lovely! How did you do it? Inks through an airbrush?

I really like the look of the temptation dice, seems nice and fun, and rather than cutting out your opponents choices, it creates new ones for both players. I imagine it'll take a couple of games to learn when best to use them though.
Anyone know where to find a good slaaneshi depravity point counter?

Love the brigandine on those models

The second half of 2020 had hardly anything for 40k apart from some Primaris and necron kits (most of which had already been released with the starter box in June), so all hope isn't lost for AoS next year

The studded gloves are very Hedonite, yes, though the sword doesn't totally match the Slaanesh style (They do have a pretty eclectic mix of melee weapons, but they generally have a pretty consistent haft/handle design.)
It does have a sort of pop culture scimitar shape which could fit with hedonites. In any case, very pretty sword
-
I was going to say something for the Ironweld Arsenals, as book*s* make me think of human factions more than anything else, but that Kharadron trigger mechanism definitely looks pretty close
(* As opposed to a mighty great tome for the book of grudges)

We saw models that are probably the Legionnaires in the background of a photo, but I’m not sure why that discounts them from being a Warcry warband?
Yeah, they were listed just next to all the other warcry warbands, why would they not be? Unless @Nezzhilhhas some extra info to give us

They did that with dexcessa and synessa a couple of months after their battletome in aos2, itself a couple months after the HoS vs DoK boxset where the only new model was a foot hero, so I really wouldn't put it past them
