    They are losing the license, I don't remember the exact date. It is a bit weird to produce new stuff if they would lose the license in a short time. Maybe they can keep selling what they already produced... or they would renew the license. Who knows.

    Probably a renewal in that case, most license losses mean you can’t continue selling since you don’t have license

    Ha! Looks like GW is now playing the RE's game with LOTR. They resolved one that was said to be resolved after one month but now they are throwing another one:

    Middle-earth Strategy Battle Game – Reinforcements Arrive in the North - Warhammer Community (warhammer-community.com)

    ME KnightsArnor Apr11 Image1

    ME KnightsArnor Apr11 Teaser2

    It is a shame that the same doesn't match because they could have worked as nice proxies.

    Seems this means GW won’t be done with lotr then at least

    The Emberg(u)ard in the article is just used as an example city name.

    Nice to see that I won't miss out on a new Coin Malleus,. as it appears to be the same coin they gave away with Dominion in boxes of six.

    Yes it’s unique to each store, but the coin is Larger than the ones at dominion launch

    The event starts on the 6th April so I guess we'll see stores start promoting it over the next week or so ready for it. You sign up as either a protector or destroyer of the city (regardless of faction) and then have a score sheet to complete to earn points. If you get 18 points that you get a success for your side and a Coin Malleus.

    Points are for:
    Paint a full Vanguard or Spearhead box (6 points)

    Paint a leader/hero (1 point) x2

    Paint a battleline unit (1 point) x2

    Paint a behemoth (1 point)

    Paint an artillery unit (1 point)

    Paint any unit (1 point) x4

    Play a Path to Glory game (1 point) x4

    Play any game of Age of Sigmar (1 point) x4

    Complete a Path to Glory Quest (2 points)

    And then there's bonus points for introducing a new player to the game

    It’s paint or build on the muster cards since they’re on their twice it’s  1pt build a leader 1pt paint a leader etc, or at least that how my store is doing it

    Btw, anyone else saw yesterday in the warcom posts a mention of the upcoming event in the GW stores? It was a minor one mentioning to contact your store to know more, but I cannot find it now.

    Yes I mentioned this it’s a 3 month long campaign unique to every store! It’s super cool but doesn’t start for a week or so

    Sorry but I don't think you understand the issue with 40k. As previously stated they've sucked the life out of it. Fixed/ limited loadout options are neither here nor there. The lack of life and flavour in the armies themselves is the problem. 

    The fact you can't take a bunch of what you fancy and play. You really are required to build for the missions. It's like teaching for assessment, it kills enjoyment for most of us.

    I hope AoS 4 doesn't go down this path but I'll merrily continue with 3rd if they strip it back to the point that it has less flavour than a stereotypical beige British diet.

     

    However, I thought the format of the show was better, good to see faces and names that have never really had any exposure. The trailer was excellent and gives us a great idea of what will be in the launch box. In that respect it's looking better than Dominion already. The rules however, very much remain to be seen.

    I luckily don’t think that’ll hit AOS the same, a lot of models don’t have multiple options like 40K, simply because it was created later than 40K, and began its life with dynamic posing over multi parts, while their is plenty of multi kits, it’s nothing in the scale of 40K, so I don’t think it has the same level of concern. Plus a lot of weapons profiles in 3rd are “choose the model it’s the same attack”

    Lore friendly special rules however are what I fear about, that sprinkling of some in lore ability that may be pointless most the time is what makes me feel like the model is straight from the book, that was lost in 40K a lot, but I do hope they have learnt to retain it this time around

  7. Looks like Warhammer stores are going to be doing some crazy 3 month activity, after reading the Abraxia post! Sounds super cool!!!

    Also does this mean we now know Whitefang2 was correct since the name is one they said?

    What does everyone think will be for preorder this week? Warcry (NH vs LRL)? DB6 (Darkoath box)? 

    Killteam and possibly warcry, maybe blood bowl at a stretch but I think they need to reveal at least one more star player before

    it hasn't happened yet at all aside from S2D which doesn't really count, they're going to have to start repeating them soon enough though

     

    Yea I think a Slaanesh alignment is the only chaos faction not yet done, and then there’s some order a single or couple of destruction left (I can only think of Gloomspite so far and now with ossiarchs I think that’s death finished 

     

    although I feel there was a whitefang rumour about Morai-Heg warband but that may have been misinterpreted from the Krethusa release

    She's mentioned in Dawnbringers 1 as the person who instructed the Varanguard to make the Heralds of Nurgle spread the Shudderblight Plague. She's also mentioned in a short story in a recent White Dwarf. 

    Overall, she seems to be a senior member of Archaon's inner circle. She is described as having Black armour with Gold Trim and a spear that has neon flames bursting from the head.

    She’s also referred to as Marshal by a fellow Varanguard in a white dwarf story, and seems to be able to summon demons/demon gates using said spear

    I would say:
     

    AGE OF SIGMAR

    -Dawnbringers 6 announced + its minis. And maybe a little preview about Darkoath rules.

    WARCRY

    - I doubt we would see rats in warcry. I think will be a Nurgle vs Idoneth (based on the REs).

    THE OLD WORLD

    - Also date for the Orruks.

    WARHAMMER 30K

    - Mechanicum? I think rumours were talking about them.

    I think you’re on money with Nurgle V Idoneth although I think mechanicum are next year release

  12. What’s interesting is what will be revealed at adepticon, as last year we only had the announcement it was happening alongside one mini for the two leading factions, however some things are guaranteed to be different, for instance last year it was revealed at Wfest, which isn’t happening this year (although they could still do an online preview) and a large reveal that was almost certainly intended for adept was leaked and revealed (Darkoath) this means they will likely fill that preview slot with something else rather than shrinking the amount of reveals, especially since Adepticon is massive for GW, will it be filled with a full reveal? I can’t know for certain especially since they could wildcard online wfest still, but it does leave the opportunity for it to be revealed at adept

    No way… We juuust has a gnomes lore video from Andy 9 days ago! As of they’re coming back to WHFB after all this time! Although Blood Bowl certainly feels like the place for them. We’ll see for sure soon, either way. Fun! 

    Gnomes is blood bowl would certainly fit the bill for “wild news coming to blood bowl in the coming months” they said in December, but alas I don’t want to get my hopes up

    Well, then whoever got stock for a final reveal this adepticon was right. Or maybe this really is the final birdie at all?

    Yes I have a feeling I was wrong, and that afepticon could be far more open now, especially if they reveal either the ork, custode or chaos model before adepticon it could likely mean I was completely wrong, seems when they said half of Kroot was first revealed was more close to 3 quarters ahahah

  15. 1 minute ago, Copywolf said:

    That makes me a bit sad.  I always liked Knarlocs.

    Tbh if people buy a lot of Kroot in 3 years time GW will make more and probably at that point go with a centre piece, I must admit I’m also sad about this, but incredible models for Kroot are coming

    Oh, totally. Have to be said tho he usually distinguishes what are just his guesses/wishlistings or foilrak fridays and what are the legit rumours or "whispers in the warp" as he calls them.

    That and how ****** up is current GW's release schedule. I can only guess, but our discussions about wether kroot are coming either before or after adepticon? I think they are as lost as us.

    Tbh Valrak said about World Eaters over a year in advance, same with the upcoming Emperors children so I don’t think the 6 month guideline quite works

    We have something big for sure. And I think that Knarloc as a hero, rather than a unit, could hit the spot. Why? So far we had a unit with spears on the back:

    image.png.dfb04d8c1d8f0cf23e82b00bf1390618.png

    But those spears are not decorated, while the RE ones have ornaments:

    image.png.1ad8c9646ae5d368b4c6351ade8a8216.png

    So my shot is a hero.

    A hero on a great Knarloc would be stellar, plus we know the unit on the lizards seem to have rifles

    I heard back a year or more ago that GW was in is last years for LOTR based stuff, as the rights for it were ending.

    Yea, but they did say a monthish ago that there would be releases this year, tbh if the license is running out that may actually make sense for one last hurrah

    Id love a Great Knarloc model!! 

    I can 100% see a great Knarloc as a centrepiece, and the final kit after that and the scout riders to be an elite foot infantry, since that’ll be all they’re missing
