    I play beast claw riders.

     

    ??? Now I don't know what is the definition of imminent, but when was the last time BCR or destruction got anything updated? I know that BCR are, baring GW messing up some rules, will never be the best army. That spot will always be reserved for armies with much bigger number of models. I am ok with that. But I don't think it is ok to design factions with them missing important parts of the game. Specially as at the same time as the new edition came, they brought out the General Handbook. Would it have been such a huge problem for GW to remove the shoting option from the huskard, something all other players seem to hate, and turn them in to a priest or wizard?

    I don't get the easy to play comment. GW itself gave the recipe for playing BCR, it is charge and get good rolls. There is no army with a more simple game play in the entire game. But simple does not equal good. The good armies often have a skill cap, that is not trivial or at least requires to learn what to do what unit to activate when you charge with your blob of evocators. I am sure a lot of BCR, or even destruction players would welcome such level of difficulity.

    But no is saying that AoS got nothing. there was a new edition for example. They did update two armies, even if those were the armies that they just updated in 1st ed, but there was new stuff. Again I have no problem with other people getting stuff for games they play. But I don't understand why people who do not play w40k or necromunda should be happy about those. Or is it being happy that others get stuff? If that is the case, then ok. If people like me are suppose to be happy, that someone gets stuff for his necromunda, then they should, or at least I am assuming they should, understand that destruction not getting any updates in like a year and a half may make some people unhappy. It should work both ways.

    But it seems like the only accepted thing is to be happy all the time about everything, and any discontent is being viewed as you want GW to die, AoS to flop hard and probablly Trump win a second term.

    If you want to take this too another thread I'm happy to discuss.

    There's no settled top 3 armies yet. Should we all go out and buy Magma dragons? Or normal dragons? Or new Stormcast? Or nighthaunt? Or DoK?

     

    The no support comment is utterly ridiculous. It's a new edition drop, with not only two new armys ( two battletome, a full new range) but an expansion and a generals handbook.

     

    I do wish people would stop commenting on the state of AoS based on a narrow faction view. Out of interest, blueshirtman, what do you play?

    Moonclan Grots are coming, not sure what the timetable for the release is. New fanatics, characters, squig hoppers, troggoths, and a few other squig type things. The theme is very much based on the Fungoid Cave Shaman and overall they are a lot darker and grimier than their previous iteration. I am almost positive they are sticking with the same grot models for this line too (the 20 man battleline unit). I believe a lot of those rumor engine photos are from the new line. 

    What's your source?

    So the Ironjawz rumour comes from one of the open days. 

    In conversation with one of the design team , it seems that a comment along the lines of 'design and production improvements would allow for some diverse modelling, imagine what we could do with Sylvaneth and Ironjawz now, looking at the Deepkin kits. A second wave would definitely be a lot more crazy!' 

     

    No conformation, more of a conversation about the possible.

    So I've heard a few people speculate at a November release for darkoath. 

    Anyone else think this sounds Right? 

    I think They'll struggle to fit it between Slaneesh and Moonclan. Especially with a campaign for 40k on the horizon, and some big releases there.

    July will be Stormcast/Nighthaunt and Killteam

    August will be Genestealer Cult/Space Wolves

    September Orks, campaign maybe? then Moonclan into 

    October.. With Titanicus

     

    So there is maybe a gap for something November, but if Slaneesh is December then it's a small gap.

    Common sense dictates that darkoath would come after the 4 gods are here, so post-Slaneesh. I hope not, as I'd love some chaos undivided tribe stuff!
