  1. Yes I'm excited about Blood Bowl. Anybody else who is excited, might be interested in this event at Warhammer World in November - http://warhammerworld.games-workshop.com/the-bugmans-full-beard-cup/ I'm also really excited about the new Horus Heresy set and I think there is some cool stuff in it which gives me a nice sized force as I've not done a lot with my Calth marines yet! In fact, pretty much every release GW has done this year I have been excited about!
  2. no idea. If they are only doing these in "small" batches it might be better for them to do metal from a cost point of view. But we are still waiting to see if this is all true
  3. That probably makes sense then as it means that they don't need to cast up stupid amounts of things and have it sitting around in warehouses, waiting for people to buy them.
  4. ++ Mod Hat On ++ ** Cough ** Any Rumours ** Cough ** Just want to try and keep this thread on track as whilst we all love chatting about the hobby, I want to keep this mostly about rumours
  5. I suspect quite a few people will if this is true. I know I may do if true!
  6. You are assuming that everybody plays the same sized games I think for testing the waters and catering for people who play at home on the kitchen table, 4x4 is fine. Hopefully this is a something they will invest more into and we will see some bigger mats
  7. I think it's a bit of a test to see if it's something people want. They have been playing around with the idea for the new Blood Bowl game and were looking at having the pitches made from a similar material (not 100% sure if this will happen but if it does will be as an limited release). I also imagine the thinking behind having it as a 4x4 one as well is that it fits on most people's dining tables or doesn't take up too much floor space
  8. Horus Heresy stuff focused upon the raising of Prospero. I'm sort of hoping for some Tzeentch Daemon stuff but sort of suspect that Silver Tower was that for this year.
  9. 100% agree. Whilst it would have been cool to have another Alliance, it's more straight forwards this way! I don't think they will have one rule set for both systems, mainly because it will cause a massive amount of upset to the core customer base of GW's business. I suspect that they will take a lot of lessons learnt with Age of Sigmar and use that (just like how Age of Sigmar took elements of 40K and refined it - i.e. Formations/Battlaions). I think we will see similar profiles for 40K but I think the core rules will have a lot more to it. The main issue 40K has is that the rules to play the game are all over the place, whilst Age of Sigmar all I need is the Generals Handbook and the Warscrolls and I can play anyway I want (Out of Box/Narrative/Matched Play). These are my thoughts as well, plus you don't need to use the models just for 30K as you can use the armour variants in 40K
  10. Yes looks like it. I'll be giving mine away as I don't play it and don't own a PC. 13th Black Crusade (again! ). I suspect they are using this as the 40K End Times campaign to push the background that bit closer to midnight, so no longer two minutes but probably 30 seconds. Then I think we will see a new edition of the game which will most likely be similar to Age of Sigmar (I think probably profiles). I think if there are any more releases it will be either tied into the 40K Tzeentch release if we see new Daemon models, or some new character releases. I don't think Steamhead Duardin are a wishlist but I'm very interested in what GW come up with as they almost have a blank canvas for them. I wouldn't be surprised if they polarise people when they come out, especially as they no longer need to stick with what we had with the World that Was.
  11. I know it was very strongly hinted at they would revisit the Generals Handbook and add content as well as adjusting things but I think this was a given.
  12. Same here but I have a small mountain of marines to paint up so heading in that direction anyway (and my local group play a lot of 40K). Good spot Batman! Month of Tzeentch would be cool but unfortuanlty I think there will be little Age of Sigmar content bar some model updates. Would be nice to have a Exaulted Flamer model on it's own rather than having to have the Chariot kit.
  13. It's Silver Towers. I think this is for the second part of the 40K Fenris Battlezone campaign. So this is probably all the Tzeentch stuff that has been rumoured as well as the ones around Primarch models #wolftime Be interesting to see if there is anything new for Age of Sigmar though with this release, as it would be cool to see a new Lord of Change model.

  18. What happens if it is 40K or Horus Heresy Tzeentch? #handgrenadethrow
  19. I think a lot of stuff gets mistaken for other stuff. I remember before the End Times came out, we had rumours about a Chaos Lord on a Dragon and a new plastic Great Unclean One aka Archaon and The Glottkin. I think part of the issue with these sorts of rumours is that even though they are from a 'trusted' source, we don't know how much of it is hearsay from somebody who knows somebody who knows somebody or how much is a bit of fun from the guys in the Studio. Personally with the recent amazing stuff from GW via Facebook and Youtube, I'm more happy to wait for the cool teasers and pictures that way than a bit of fishwife gossip. A cool example was the recent leak about a 30K release which the GW guys blew out of the water with dropping Kharn!
  20. You foul temptress! I really think you are doing yourself a dis-service with what you have achieved. Seriously, if I had 15 hours I would not be able to do anything to the same quality that you have.
  21. Gah I've got to stop reading this thread as it's making me want an Ironjaw Army! Lovely army Chris. Seriously, I don't know how you are able to knock out something of this quality in the timescales you subjected yourself to. I know I can paint things quickly but it's nowhere near the lovelyness you do!
  22. I'm going to have to say it now - I equally love and hate this thread. I love it because it's inspiring to see somebody doing a great job with the fantastic miniatures that GW have produced, but also showing that the force does have some teeth (or teef ) now we have all digested the warscrolls and battalions. I hate it because it has me rethinking about my Clash army and trying to work out if I can knock out a Ironjaw list (although I am equally tempted with a Duardin force just to annoy Mo)
  23. I would say wishlisting as I think 40K is going to get some love with some Deathwatch Marines and a new boxed set and then backed up with what I see as the 40K End of Times stuff to gear people up for the next edition
  24. Games Workshop have recently released some FAQs to try and help out with any common questions players may have about the game or the Alliances. Please see the link below: https://www.games-workshop.com/en-GB/Rules-Errata#AoS-errata IMPORTANT BIT You may be wondering if these are offical or if you have to use them. Please consider the first question from the Age of Sigmar Rules FAQ.... Q - Is an FAQ required when you can discuss things with your opponent before a game? A - Players should always feel free to discuss the rules before a game, and change things as they see fit if they both want to do so, whatever the printed rules and FAQ may say so. The rules and FAQ simply provide a 'default setting' for your games.
