  1. Pretty good reveal show.

    Not a huge fan of the Flagellant warband , but still nice to have some new Devoted. I might try covering up the priest's robes so that the guy underneath isn't visible, as that's probably my main gripe with them.

    As for 4.0...

    Which 1/3 of the Parch are we thinking is going under?

    In 2022 they showed the Horus Heresy cinematic trailer at AdeptiCon and nothing else. In 2023 they did something similar with 40k (Primaris Lieutenant and the one Tyranid wasn't it?), so yeah, I think it's a safe bet we'll just see the cinematic and maybe 1-2 individual models, but no full set. It's possible the leaked photos may have spooked them a bit into revealing a little more than 30k or 40k saw at their new edition announcements though.

    I reckon with Darkoath accidentally leaked, we'll probably see at least a few things from Dawnbringers VI, but maybe not everything?

    Horus Heresy was full box reveal + extras and the trailer (probably because it got leaked a year before :D).

    And 10th 40k was 2 Terminators and 2 Tyranids, some extra info and the trailer.

    Yeah. I was about to post it. I think it fits those two RE:

    LET'S GOOÓOOOO

    And here I was saying we won't be getting new Cities stuff for a while :D

    I would be ecstatic if we got a Warcry kit for Flagellants, but even "just" an Underworlds warband is incredibly good for adding anything to the Devoted keyword apart from Zenestra and the Flagellants. And it could establish what new Sigmarite religious stuff will look like.

    Or it's even more (very stylish) witch hunters.

    Oh my…

    Perfect!

    This is either an extensive hype campaign, or...

    There's full on manhunt going on at GW for someone with the vague description of "maybe East-Asian/Singapoeran and has access to the AoS project files/a core book, get them before they leak everything please"

    About this. What if… khul WAS the lady of ruin, like the first transgender mini? =p 

    Would explain why we got so little intel over the second =p

    It would be cool to see to see a Stormcast or Chaos champion who's trans (probably not beyond the ability of the Six Smiths/Chaos Gods when they can give them new bodies over and over), but Khul probably wouldn't go from Khorne's chosen to Archaon's.

    AoS needs to merge all similar effects under the same term and make a glossary with all, like 40k did.

    And that's the principal reason I want an index

    Personally, I prefer having everything I need for a unit to be in one place, so that when I look at the warscroll for, say, the Command Corps, I can just read that the Great Herald adds movement to runs, charges and retreats, instead of flipping through the core book looking for what "Swiftness 1-3/12" or something means.

    I've been told Sigmar has let souls that didn't want to return, pass on. Some Stormcast even sacrifice their souls to become Bifrost-esque Skybridges. @Baron Klatz or @Togetak probably have more input on Sigmar being a Regretful God-King. The Sacrosanct Chamber's entire purpose is to help the Reforging process both in the forge itself and by seeking out some kind of cure. I can see them keeping SOME secrets, but if there's no Natural Flaw then why are a THIRD of the Stormcast specifically geared and trained to combat the Flaw?

    I'm not convinced the conspiracy could go so deep that there's no Natural Flaw period. It feels more likely, from everything written so far, that there IS a Natural Flaw due to the rushed implementation--but it can be made worse or be forced by the Six Smiths. If there's an Intentional element to the Flaw, then there's also an in-text reason for named models having favoritism.

    However, this whole lie thing hinges on GW writing a GOOD conspiracy and... "grimderp" wasn't coined for no reason.

     

    After reading that I just assumed there was still the constant natural deterioration but the souls could also be "trimmed back" artificially to prevent them self-destructing/going on a rampage.

  9. Which one of you rats got into the printing room now? :D

    All these leaks are finally getting me into the new edition spirit. And the fact we are getting a new trailer next Thursday has me really hyped. Probably no new Cities stuff for a while, but what's a good Freeguild force without some big, chunky Stormcast to draw enemy attacks?

    They know what they're doing to us. They aren't just giant rats, but specifically have some of teh classic Skaven design features. Its really pretty funny.

    Yeah, these are aesthetically 100% Plague Monks with wrappings, hoods and all :D

    I just noticed how unique the box design is for Callis and Toll. Could be because they're wh+ tie ins, but I'm also thinking we could be pptentially looking at the box design for 4th edition releases, and I for one would be happy, I like it much better than the current red ones

    Same box design for Blacktalons (and probably for the new Darkoath team)

    This would have been so cool- a proper centrepiece unit for dwarfs. Peachy said it was in a similar design to the gyro bomber so the aesthetics would fit really well. There were always rumours about them redoing the Juggernaught from way back in 1st Ed WFB. This would have been some upgrade! I could see how the argument could be made that it was too much, but it would have added a bit of mobility to the army, a bit of a counter to other races big mounts and monsters and still very much in keeping with the dwarf ethos rather than adding cavalry/monsters.

    Hopefully we might see it at some point in the old world, they talked about there being technology that may have been lost later being available, this fits the bill. If the Empire can have steam tanks I think we can have dwarf tanks. Love the Anvil of Doom option as well.  

    (Also from the video)
    One piece of the tank did make it into a kit.

    Behold, the Tree Lord base:

    Seems like it's part of the back around the steam engine.

    There was also a mention of the Valaya ancestor cult in the story. So that would be a neat direction for Dispossessed to go in.

    Would be pretty interesting to have:

    • Grungni - Kharadron (advanced tech)
    • Grimnir - Fyreslayers (slayers)
    • Valaya - Dispossessed (hearth and home/traditional dwarves)

    I don't think this scenario is impossible:

    - Battletome update with a few kits for Ironweld and Devoted to Sigmar.

    - Mini dwarf wave sometime, maybe as part of an event box or something. The whole subfaction is just two unit kits, two heroes and the Gyrocopter right now. They can be updates in one go if GW pushes for it.

    - Another Underworlds warband or two.

    - Another Warcry warband or two.

    - Dark elves during the end of Edition campaign.

    S2D and Soulblight updated all their old stuff over a few big releases. I don't see why this should be impossible to do with Cities as they currently are (mostly humans, some dwarves, some elves).

    I also think most "future wave" Cities designs (at least looking into possible shortish term stuff) would probably have been designed with what we have already seen.

    Not much of a reason to develop all sorts of iconography for new Cults Unberogen and then just do literally nothing with it.

    And a surprise Dispossessed mini-wave would send me to an early grave from shock. It'd be glorious!!!

    You all know this axe is some base decoration for a new grot hero right?

    We do have half a dwarf range refresh as Destruction statue-weapons and base decor...

    So it's probably this one.

  16. Would love it to be Dispossessed (MAYBE Dispossessed vs Chaos Warcry?), but it's probably still too soon for that.

    Probably Grombrindal or the first TOW RE. The gem probably means it's for someone higher up the chain of command.

    Yeah really busy trying to find this mini. Think i will run this mini and Krethusa as a raven priest. Dont actually know the Rook could proxy in the CoS tome, dont really like the command corps much besides the surgeon. Dont really see any generic foot hero for CoS at the moment. Maybe a fleetmaster? I do like the fusiliers idea or maybe a second wildercorps hunters unit.

    Yeah, Cities doesn't really have human foot heroes at the moment.
    Maybe you could use them as Marshal and convert a Relic-Envoy to go with them? Would need to put the Rook on a 32mm instead of the supplied 28mm base though.

    Thanks, i am also wondering if the heads are bigger than the boingrot bounder helmets? 

    Also want to ask if any of the lore fanatics know what units/races Lethis is known for, anything written about this?

    Lethis is mainly known for ghost hunting/vampire busting, so their "iconic" unit would be lines of Fusiliers banishing undead with silver bullets. They also haven raven priests of Morrda, although apart from the Command Corps priest there's not really a way to depict that sticking to only official minis.

    And you can't go wrong with the Steel Rook for that extra raven aesthetic.
