Only the Skaven models as far as I know.

Honestly Sylvaneth already have the fairie themes, even the evil fairy themes what with Drycha.

The Warhammer Fantasy equivelant of Mongolia is the Eastern Steppes, where Hobgoblins, Kurgan and Hung live.

Ogors aren't Mongolian, the designers explicitly stated they were supposed to look like Cossacks. I don't know why people keep saying Ogres are Mongolians because they don't really have anything to do with them.

I'm pretty sure its about Krethusa.

Wasn't Games Workshop's whole distinction between "launch boxes" and "starter boxes" is that launch boxes were intended for experienced players who just wanted all the new models that were releasing with the start of the edition while starter boxes were inttended for people who wanted to start the game? Kind of weird if they veered away from that. Maybe they just figured that new players were just buying the launch box to get into the game anyway.

The third option is literally what Leviathan did though.

You can't mix and match endless spells from different lores, you will only need to buy a single box containing the one you need.

So hypothetically speaking, assuming that it isn't summoned like an Endless Spell, there's no reason not to take Krondspine when you're playing KO, right? Unless they're just going to make Spells in a Bottle a universal army feature.

Didn't Whitefang Jr. mention being excited for "Skaventide"? I presume that will be the box name.

I remember Beastmen showing up a bit in in stuff. Main villains in Beastgrave, major side villain in Hamilcar, primary antagonist POV in Black Pyramid.

The Vulture Lord is another Bonereapers centric novel.

Yeah, but its much bigger in comparison to, say, Seraphon (the most Seraphon centric novel is Legends of the Age of Sigmar: Skaven Pestilens, and that's the weird 1E Slann-dream Seraphon).

There are a bunch of Fyreslayer stories. Arguably, no dedicated Fyreslayer novels, but: *Legends of the Age of Sigmar: Fyreslayers, which is a compliation of short stories and a novella. *Bonereapers, a novella which while the Bonereapers themselves get top billing the Fyreslayers are the main heroes opposing them. *Heirs of Grimnir, an audio drama spinoff of Realmslayer that focuses purely on Fyreslayers. *Grombrindal: Chronicles of the Wanderer, which is evenly divided between Dispossessed, Fyreslayers and Kharadron with neither really getting more focus than the others. *Soulslayer, a Gotrek novel which is something like 70% Fyreslayer focused.

Fyreslayers did play a role in early Dawnbringers what with the whole rivalry with King Trugg thing. Honestly I think Kharadron get about just as much attention in the narrative as Fyreslayers do and I see nobody saying they're neglected.

You can easily just make something based on his 6E rules for the Old World. From a quick look the only real major problem I see is that his armour is a 1+ save which is no longer around, but if you make him a 2+ save rerolling ones because of the Gromril Armour special rule it should still work for sheer "unopenable tin can" levels.

Could be masked and unmasked head options in the kit itself. IIRC the Dominion Stormcast had a bunch of helmeted and unhelmeted heads with them.

They will probably have a copy of his warscroll in White Dwarf I bet so even if we don't get the rules online early it would be whenever those people with early access to WDs get them.

Personally the battle tactic that irritated me a lot was Magical Dominance, because ironically it incentivizes you NOT to use magic. Nothing like seeing someone refuse to cast any spells with Nagash because they could potentially get unbound.

I know I certainly started shopping third-party when the price increases became too much.

The worm cities also appear in a flashback in the Yndrasta book where they were part of the army fighting Doombreed.

You actually get to see these Goblin slave-trader caravans in depth in the Skarsnik Fantasy novel. Skarsnik gets captured by them and eventually manages to rise in power until he can kill the Boss and take it over for himself.

Not really. Space Marines were always the poster boys of the game, they were on the cover of Rogue Trader and had the most pages in the rulebook out of any faction. They were also pretty similar to they are now, being bio-augmented warrior-monks organized into Chapters of a 1000 men. The main difference I'd say was that they were portrayed as a lot cruder in tone; you don't really see Space Marines called "Mad Chainsaw Johnson" with the phrase "KIL KIL KIL" written on their pauldrons anymore. They did have Field Police but the Arbites were already established as the cops of the Imperium, I think the Space Marine Field Police were more a reference to things like the IRL USMC Military Police or the WW2 German Feldgendarmerie.

We already had those with the from Warhammer Quest: Silver Tower. A unit they desperately need to bring back.

Honestly, even though battleplans are one of the most important parts of the game its honestly one of the least interesting things for me to read about.
