One of the Cities design articles mentioned that they worked on an aesthetic for Cities they was too "high concept" and that it looked like they came from "some place warm, like they had happy lives"
Maybe this conquistadore look is back from that phase of design?
Full on "everything goes" soup would be pretty bloat-y and a nightmare to balance.
A less restricted way to include Cities units in SCE and Stormcast in CoS that isn't just the base Allies system, with thematic rules? Still interesting in terms of balance, but it would be pretty cool.
If we get some of the surviving citizens trying to fight for their slowly crumbling city (on terrain based off that) to go with that, I'm a 100% in.
And any setting at this point will be better than Gnarlwood for the 1000th time
I don't actually remember the last time he was 100% wrong about something.
Has he gotten details wrong? Yeah, absolutely, like the Black Templar Ancient.
Straight up fake stuff? Only if we count the times he just lists of stuff he read online/states that he doesn't 100% trust his source.
Having watched the video, I'm pretty confident Cathay could be coming, although I might be a bit biased
Imho they fit in perfectly with Cities humans, especially Zenestra's palanquin carriers. A bit more ornate, but that's fitting for Stormcast guidance counselors.
Uhh, 100% new Cities minis by technicality of sharing aesthetics and being human?!
These will be really good for Devoted stuff/alternate Steelhelm priests.
CoS wave 2 won't be until at least early next year (and most likely around mid-late 4th unless we get any more hints as to when the COGFORT drops, still hoping for a short wait like Lumineth had between releases (less than a year)), but Dwarfs are 100% coming either this month or May.
Didn't even know these, uhh, beautiful Night Goblins existed.
Guess we won't be saying goodbye to the current Moonclan Grots for a while still.
Makes me kinda scared for Dispossessed, since TOW dwarfs use the plastic Ironbreakers/Longbeards/Runelord/Warden King kits.
Why is it even a separate element?
If they are going to paste the same footer into every AoS article they might as well have put it into a single one with a divider or something.
And the two parts use exactly the same template down to the class names.
Bit off topic, but the inefficiency of this imho is pretty weird. Unless they only want the model reveals section in just the index article.
Anyway, how many legs do we think a new Cogfort could have?
The Paladins and "Custodes" are most likely separate, but regarding the two lightning-wranglers, hear me out;
Stormcast character/monster with human auxiliary aides/handlers?
