  1. Nice spot @Brucimus!!

    Would be really cool if they did the battle mats but it's quite stiff competition at the moment with all the other mats on the market place. Be interested to see how much they compare against the other mats as well as the designs. Got me thinking about going to Warhammer Fest now!

    @Killax

    I get the feeling we should take this to another thread so as not to clog up the rumour thread with stuff that isn't rumours. I'm putting all my images behind spoilers so people don't think they're new models. ;) 

    Please do.

    Don't mind people getting excited about the cool new toys but design aesthetics deserve a topic to themselves ;) 

    Back on topic.

    Looks like the new Shadespire Warband is seven models, so I'm guessing these will be sold in a set all together rather than individual packs. Be interesting to see if this is the case and if you can get add on models. Also I'm guessing we will see some activation shenanigans which have them somehow get round the four activations a player turn limit.

    Sepulcral Guard seems to the name of the "Unit" for the "Deathrattle" Faction... or is that the team?

    Possibly a step over Grave Guard when they are ported to AOS full? or... will these even be released as unit and JUST be Shadespire...?

     

    Either way. Ill take 15 please.

    It sounds like it's the name of the Warband in Shadespire. I wouldn't be surprised if they are ported into AOS but depends if there is other things coming out later this year for Death to go along with the release ;)

    A player at Warhammer World at the weekend, seemed to know a lot of the staff there etc - reckoned a new Death release at some point.

    No idea if he had any basis for it or not though! That anchor they showed on Warhammer Community not long ago sure did look bone-y .....

    Trying not to sound sarcastic with reply but yes there will be at some point! ;) 

    Personally I think we will see something around the Shadespire release due to the background (city Nagash has corrupted to lure warriors to) but no idea what this release could be.

    This weekend's preorders and UK prices :):

    Arkonaut Company £27.50
    Book £25
    Cards £10
    Frigate (medium sized ship) £50
    Admiral £15
    Prices are RRP U.K.

    https://war-of-sigmar.herokuapp.com/bloggings/1877

    Nice find. Looking at those prices, we probably won't be seeing a Start Collecting Set unless it's in the next wave with the Skyriggers (say Arkonaut's, Skyriggers and a Admiral).

  5. It's what they've been doing with 40K for years. They drop little hints of things which you as a hobbist can play with or it's an idea that they will revisit in the future. I love it as it opens up what people can do with their hobby and how they want to play.

    On a side note - I'm expecting the new version of 40K to drop in July as there is a 40K event at Warhammer World in June. This means we may not see any big AOS releases over the summer because of this

    I'm looking to start AoS, and I've got an idea for a mixed destruction army.  

    But I've always loved the look of the lord of the rings models. They have the realism look which fits the "feel" of certain units I want. Particularly for gitmob grits, I like the small and sneaky look of the Moria goblins in a horde. Also the trolls look so much cooler than the troggoths (OK, the fellwater look pretty cool too). 

     

    Would this be an issue in tournaments? I'd hate to build up a full army and have to hope each TO would allow me to play. I feel like because they are still GW models and are easily recognizable it shouldn't be a problem. 

    Thoughts? 

    I would check with the event organisers. For me it wouldn't be a major issue but it wouldn't feel right and it wouldn't be warhammer. This is one of the issues I had with Kings of War, as the rules were okay but the different types of models just didn't sit right with me.

    For GW events, this would be a no.

    Anyone else think they might discontinue the og starter set, and then release the starter set models that arent in the new starter set as their own products? Maybe finally a unique warscroll for vandus and khul?

    I'm expecting them to discontinue the Original Starter set with this new one, as it seems to be aimed better at new starters (different coloured plastic), plus new packaging takes up less shelf space. I think they are intending to make more of a push to sell in other retailer stores. Not sure about unique scroll for Vandus but would like to see one for Khul if he manages to become a Daemon Prince.

    Folks, I try not to go down the route of censorship/telling you what to post but can we please limit the amount of these sorts of images? I know they are in jest but (a) some people may not like it and (b (which may be the real reason)) some of us look at these forums at work. ;) 

    Also we sort of need to keep on topic?!?

    I dunno about you, but I'm quite interested in this snippet from Shadespire:

    "It has been designed specifically for competitive, organised play, to support our growing community of gamers out there."

    I'm quite happy with Open and Narrative play, but it's awesome that they've realized organized competition is a huge draw to a lot of players. I can't wait to see what it's about! 

    Yeah I'm excited about this as well. As mentioned in the Shadespire thread, I'm expecting the "Shadow Aelf" picture to be something to do with this now. But as a competitive/organised play tool, this sounds exciting and I can't wait to hear more about it

    This release has my head spinning.  Oh, the IRONY!

    The race MOST resistant to change has changed the MOST.  I gotta wonder what the "9th Age" Luddites are saying about this.  These new Overlords could be viewed as a metaphor for AoS vs. WFB in general. 

    I've singled you out @roberto but this does apply to others - Can we please have less 9th Age bashing please. People are entitled to their opinions, but it's not something we want on this forum. ;) 

     

    Back on topic....

    I love it. Steampunk, Pirate, Magic Space Dwarfs in exoarmour is something I never knew I wanted but looks like I will have! I think this is a great release and great step away from the 'traditional' fantasy to make Age of Sigmar special!

    My guess would be that Slaanesh/elves would get a box set like IoB or a starter, his comeback is to big to be just a normal monthli thing. Perhaps summer campain, or will it be 40k this year?

    Too be honest, I wouldn't be surprised with both happening!

    I have a funny feeling we will see a new edition of 40K this year and I'm expecting a new box set for Age of Sigmar but it's not going to replace the current one but be a splash release.

    Well we should start seeing the new white dwarf pop up. Hopefully they give some hints at what's to come over the next month. 

    think some have already started appearing as subscribers should have their copies now (hoping mine is at home). I'm expecting a 40K focus with probably any AOS releases being Warhammer Quest related (repacks).

    Cheers Gaz! Yeh one of the "problems" with AoS is how awesome everything is haha! I haven't even finish assembling my Tzeentch and I'm back on Ironjawz...but then also bought a Sylvaneth army this week out of the blue! Too much stuff and literally no money!! :/

     

    Yup. Stupid GW making so many nice models and cool games! Currently waiting for Aelfs/Slaanesh/Duardin and trying to work out if I want a Stormcast army or Tzeentch army! I think the reality will be move house and see where I am later this year.

    Morning,

    Pretty disappointed with the lack of response there tbh! Thought you guys would be loving that!! Not the kick-start to the thread I'd hoped for. :( 

    I love it Chris. Please keep on doing it! You are still that nagging voice in the back of my head about starting up a Ironjaw list (I just can't make my mind up because all of the AOS stuff is so nice). Just work, a one year old and trying to move house has me a bit distracted ;)
