    If Gitmob is really going to be expanded, and the Snarlfang Riders are indicative of the future, they could draw some inspiration from this bit of 8th edition WHFB. This always captured my imagination and is my favorite bit from that Army Book.

    “Other well known goblin tribes include nomadic traders that travel the wilderness in ramshackle, fortress-like caravans. They trade with all kinds of unsavory types and, unsurprisingly, are known for their thievery and swindling skills.”

    Would be great for Back Library stories as well!

    Them combined with Grotbag scuttlers should focus as a sunworshipping-fast moving grot army.

    The ramshackle goblin part wiould be ramped up to eleven possibly drawing cues from old O&G siege weapons and the 40k grot committee that had similar vehicles:

    Did the murder the plague priest in the model cleansing? Maybe a grey seer that can be built as a plague priest, like in Total Warhammer? I seem to remember them being the same model with a different staff and stink lines floating around the plague priest.

    Heads should be very different though, plague priests are'nt horned as grey seers.

    Partial OT:female custodes were never implied to be impossible save for a line about "taken fron nobility of terra Sons".

    Custodes creation is not extremely detailed as SM so there was room for details and innovation.

    But in the HH Sanguinius mention women and men clad in gold as bodyguard of his father(people thought about sisters of silence but they're not his bodyguard,they're the astra telephatica chamber militant).

    It's different from introducing female sm (that need the geneseed of their primarch)...maybe the lazyness of the introduction about them is "bad" (but they did the same with primaris to some extent)but they were never mentioned as "impossible to have".

    Valrak was talking about Fimirs on his stream recently, but he said for Kill Team? He himself seemed unfamiliar with Fimirs - I personally can’t see them return, but then 10 years ago if you told Me Nagash would get a big plastic kit and the Primarchs would be returning to 40k I’d have poured all the Salt out of my cupboard to have that conversation. 

    Fimirs in 40k KT does'nt make senses though...maybe he misheard the rumor(Fimir for warcry?for aos?).

    But Ogors aren't a core faction in Tow.
    The whole "different sales data" would be meaningless here as they are supported only in aos so there would'nt be any problem.
    Considering destruction has very few armies it would be madness...

    The new Warlock Engineer is more AoSified, isn't it? GW is giving a bit of love to both sides of the preferences.

    Nope,the crazy warp lightning thingy would have been considered normal in whfb too...

    It's stil classic skryre all the way.

    Halfling don't need to be cannibals to be paired with ogors though...they were made by the old ones to complement each other so they could be just assistants to butchers as "cooking helpers" and just eat the various beasts they hunt.

    They could even be made more technilogically advanced as sort of "civilized servants" to "homage" the whole khanates using subjected nations craftsmen and scholars for their empires.

    I'd love to see gutbuster having a more asian aesthetic while the beastclaw retain the cavemen/hunters things.

    Or just make firebellies more civilized with bronze,forges and so on (perhaps mimicking early shang and Zhou bronze iconography) with their halflings as assistants.

    Gitmob should be expanded and merged with grotbag to make a sun-Mork orshipping themed/frazzlegit army,to complement gloomspite with their Moon theme(as they have spiderfang and moonclan).

    Throw in some big dumb muscle thing like the troggoth as a bonus.

    It's a good day to be a dwarfchad.

    Imho the warcry bonereapers needed a different loadout to get proper unit (more creatures and maybe doing 3 centaurs beastmaster) but not a bad group of models.

    Underworld cult is soo weird but  good.

    Also: AoS rulebook, weird skaven photos, Astra rumour/leaks, imperial agentes photo, the entire tau codex leaked, and all on the latest 24 hours!!!!?

    What astra rumors/leaks btw?The Krieg novel hinting at new krieg models?

    Can't wait for adepticon tbh....i never played or bought dirty Rakis but the box is tempting (i have already some stormcasts so i'm interested in the box).

    I'd say a skaven character on dawnbringers 6 would be an easy way to start marketing Ruination. That, or a warcry box, or even both. You can never run out of copium/warpstone...

    Considering the lady of Ruin would seems strange to focus on different chaos facitons in the same book...BUT they did the same in the Ushoran one with the Vampire lady.
    Maybe some sort of Enshin agent?

    Alongside new Votann and Grombrindal.. I might need a lie down if Kurnothi appear...

    Super hyped for Adepticon!

    Also old world probably is dwarvish...considering they are the next faction after orcs.

    Clan Moulder would still have:

    -(suposedly) new rat ogres

    -(suposedly) wolfrats

    -(Suposedly) new behemoth

    -Stormfiends

    -Hellpits

    It's more than enough, alltho one thing that has gone unnoticed on this forum so far: it's weird that GW wouldnt keep character options for Moulder or Pestilens (as all the resin kits will probably go to the bin) Perhaps GW will keep them around for a bit longer until they get to make new kits for them?

    They could use rat ogors kit for a moulder lord on palanquin option if they don't want a separate lord unit.
    Still i find weird not having pestilens and moulder hero options in the rumors.

    Just now, Garrac said:

    It doesnt talk about either plague monks nor night runners. Plague censers and gutter runners are not the same thing.

    Those 2 kits might still be sold on GW's page, but I hope that the ninja monkeys go to hell as the lovecraftian aberration that they are

    They just should make plague censers a weapon option for the base monks or even a dual kit with both units.
    I'm worried about moulder tbh....i can't see much other than rat ogors, giant rats(wolf rats like the hell pit white dwarf armylist i suppose?) and even the giant mole.
    The hellpit armylist from the white dwarf was great and full of new ideas for some mutating beasts and giving moulder some needed fleshing(lol).
