Swamp Trogg

I find him maybe a tad too stocky (as I prefer my basic technomages to be more hunched) but that's still a good mini and I expect to like him better in person.

Count me in, those birb peoples are damn nice.

Yep, genestealer cult new character indeed!

If something, the Warcry warband for Ogors is a good sign : neither BoC or Bonesplitters got one. On the other hand, the refresh could be limited, like keeping all the plastic and only changing what's in resin (yethees, maneaterd, butcher, etc), plus one or two new characters, like Glittermaw for exemple 🤔

Well, since I've got litteraly a dozen of the FW ones, plus the FW Fimirach and an old Mearch, I'd just like to have a game system to play them, as count as or with legit rules, and I don't care if this is in AoS or in TOW 😅 And I know there are legend rules for them, but the warscroll has at least one blatant mistake and I could not get them to change it despite mailing client service various times 😔

A challenge to logic? Hum... Gotta try something... Here me out, guys. @Whitefang Fimirs? Pretty please...

Mmmh, exquisite new rat-things, yes-yes! Fantastic models. I was among the "clan rats don't need to be redone" crowd, but I'm still happy about how these fellows turned out. That being said, I'm still gonna buy one box or two of the actual ones, because they will blend well with the new one, and are probably way cheaper. They will help fill the rank and will always add some visual diversity.

Yes. SCE are meant to attract new players, which is good for the game and the other armies that compose it. I could not care less for them, but I'm glad they're here to assure the health of AoS and, in the end, allow armies that are more niche to exist.

More people play SCE because the relative universality of their design is meant to appeal to the most. That and the fact that they are inherently easy to paint. It's not easy, but one have to admit that some armies, some concepts, are naturaly less appealing. For exemple : I play aliens space beggars in 40k (AKA Genestealer Cult). I wish they got more attention from GW but I know deeply that, even if they got dozens of new kits, they would never sold as well as Space Marines. Because they are more niche. Because they are aliens space beggars. Same thing could be said about a lot of AoS armies : some armies will always sell less than Stormcasts, no matter how many kits they get.

I'm pretty sure that the spoiled space dwarfs will steal the show and that my beloved space bug worshipping balddies will get the short end of the stick. My sorrow will probably please Lady Olynder...

Don't give us hope like this, tis bad for our little hearts...

Everything can be mimicked and rendered in 3D. Doing all new an different Chorfs won't stop 3d sculptors from copying GW stuff. But don't see the point of doing something tottalu different with CD. A little bit, sure, but why throwing at the bin their identity? They are not generic like the old empire or to tolkineske like the old high elves.

I guess it makes sense. I was still excepting a little bit more, since only one character for the whole 40k section of a major event seems a little bit slim as a preview but we'll see, and I'll huff some copium hoping for the genestealer reveal until then 😁

No battle sister or genestealer cult hq in your opinion?

I may be mistaken, but if I recall correctly, this description fits for Skreech Verminking, but not for the regular Verminlord.
