Ahh no how'd I miss that! Hopes dashed, but thanks!

I remember the BoC vs GSG battlebox rumour including a new jabberslythe, I'm ashamed to admit that heart did a little leap of excitement when both their new battletomes were announced at the same time last week, but I'm trying not to get my hopes up... saying that, we also have the rumour engines of those little beast dudes matted up in some big hairy thing that might have been a shaggoth no?

I would hazard a guess at an underworlds Morathi thing for harrowdeep due to the pirate cutlass

Oh for sure, I friend of mines has Skaven but when the contents were revealed I resigned myself to trying to sell the skaven half on ebay

That is dirt cheap, I was not expecting that at all. I was gonna get it anyway, but nice to know I can get it guilt free!

Has there been any solid connection between armies that got a new model in Broken Realms and armies that have since been updated? Or is it too soon to tell? Sylvaneth got the warsinger, now have an update. Cities got the witchhunter pair, now we have confirmed Cities are getting a huge update. Seraphon got Kroak, now we have some pretty apparent Seraphon rumour engines...? COINCIDENCE???

Yep there are warcry rules for the new NH and DoK models

Back page says world eaters for 40k are next, so no tome celestial it seems

Aaaaand the rest, minus ptg as there's a chonk of it.

There are some open/matched/ptg rules too as per, and some battalions, but what I posted was the only general rule update.

Of course I forget to rotate the image... sorry about any cricked necks I've caused!

Sorry if I'm wrong, but I think my white dwarf came early thanks to me renewing my annual sub. Anyway here's a peak at the update (sorry for my potato camera)

A postive takeaway for non Sylvaneth players from yesterday's reveals: I feel Sylvaneth players have been calling out for pretty much exactly what was revealed, that being beetle cavalry and an archer unit (wings being a bonus surprise). This makes me hopeful for other units that people have been calling out for regularly such as: - Crabalry for IDK - Mini magmadroths for FS Etc Hopefully just a matter of time

Great reveals, loved all the Sylvaneth, RIP my summer wallet. As a Beasts of Chaos collector too, the Skaven lack of new models has me concerned for when it's our turn for a new tome and update, one new hero model incoming, hopefully a Doombull, though something new might be fun. Also the Ogroids have me lowkey sad, they are pretty much what I imagined a new bullgor sculpt might look like, bar the head, almost feels like Beasts are getting replaced. Oh well, conversion job might have to do. Hopeful for destruction in Autumn, almost certainly Gloomspite and Ogors. Ogors deserve the bigger range update but hoping I get a troll caster hero for my little troll mob I've got going.

Beasts of Chaos! It's finally happening!

That mallet looks snotling to me, new snotling pump wagon with drive-by croquet skull smashin' inbound?

Elite Eshin crew would make a perfect underworlds squad! Welcome to TGA! And as a beasts of chaos collector, excellent username!

Personally I'm hoping these are actual kids, the baby goat kind, and they sit alongside some kind of brayfather BoC named character. It's just the realist in me that thinks they are more FEC looking, though you're right, they arent quite as ghoulish as the current FEC models... so maybe I have hope yet!

Very much agreed, I can imagine these evil little kids sitting around a big centrepiece ghoulking model on his throne surrounded by his heirs

Good question! I don't recognise the silhouette from any existing monsters, looks like some giant spikey humanoid?

I'm hoping the Thondia book might finally reveal what the hell an outpost is/does in path to glory.

Could be, but to me I read that as them doubling down on endless spells, as it seems like the incarnates will interact with them in some way on the game table. Could be a mixture of both though and by 4th edition endless spells might be phased out as they've all been eaten...

100% agree with you, Skaven deserve way more and I hope I'm wrong as they really should get a full range refresh. I feel like Skaven are one of those armys that people avoid purely because the range is so old, and if they got a good haul of new kits a lot of people would be ready to dive in

A multi option weapon kit would be great, and I don't know if it's me being pessimistic, but it seems like such a perfect idea that GW won't think to do it...

With the Sylvaneth vs Skaven reveal still awaiting, anyone wanna hedge their bets as to what it might bring? Personally I'm thinking it'll be 1 new hero for both as per. Sylvaneth being a hero that either buffs tree-revanants or a potential new unit (that bug leg doesn't match the necro dune fleas so I'm holding on to the beetle cavalry/big spite dream) Skaven being an Eshin hero with buffs to Eshin existing kits or again a new kit (maybe an Eshin triad type unit like those introduced in the total war series)
