    Looks like a mix of junk and believable guesses mixed with a couple existing rumors from here and elsewhere to make it seem legitimate. I guess we'll see if we see sentient roach swarms this week, but that sounds like exactly the kind of out of left field thing you'd make up to make people think its so crazy it has to be real.

    Silent people are  chaos dwarfs.. after all, we’ve kept our little pyromaniac silence and not gone on about them at all.

    decorum and all that.

    Battletome priority: lumineth???????????????????

    why, why would they do this.

    it hasn’t even been a year, before they got their second book after half a year.

    What lumineth player would be interested in buying a third book, of too hard to learn combinations,

    and new models that basically look like the older highelf models just on bigger bases.

     

    They only did it to make the khorne players angry.

    now, talking of which i wonder if the khorgorath unit will see the light of day in this age of the beast?

    right at the beginning of aos there was talk if a separate khorgorath kit box that was waiting for the right opportunity for release.

     

    sme ogroid myrmidon on roids turned up to 11 style Minotaurs would look the biz, and so very needed to replace what’s currently available… with hooves sir, with hooves… and a taurox would be nice as well… a taurox I tell thee… how much more khorne can you get!

    Khorne beefy Bloodkin or some such .

    I hope of kragnos is getting this ward they do the same with the two big dragons of sc that are comimg,because after only so much nerf of sc units(even if sc isnt in top 10 in gw data) they have many other bad units and the new twin dragons are a good example,have less damage output than a maw krusha,are named so no relik or nothing and havent special save or nothing so they are easy to kill with mortals and cost 600 when for that stats they must cost the same than maw krusha or even less

    But you’re still happy yea?

    No worries, I was just trying to repay the dozens of times you guys trolled me and/or Aelves. 😅 

    Though I'd like to see an AOS version of Tyrion or what they came up with for the River and Zenith temples I do agree: Lumineth are fine for the foreseeable future. 

    I bet he’s  not smiling either.

    teclis’ face on the cover of his book, miserable as sin.

    oi teclis, why the long face?

     

    look at belakor- huge smile

    look at kragnos- huge smile as he knows hes a beastman really

    teclis? No smile.  Because elf.

     

    be happy, don’t be an elf, get an eight pointed star and giggle to yourself.

    Oh no.. don't tell me your a stunty?

    well only of the hellbound artillery persuasion, after that it's the eight pointed star all the way, oh and the tin cans that thought some stupid watery bint was their salvation.

    However as the brets found out... better dead than elf.

    Elfs in whfb - benter than a bent thing on st bentmas day on the year of the bent.  

    I got to eat lots of bacon rolls at warhammer world once, where on a throne of skulls I faced the high smurf allarielle teclis world dragon white lion death star no less than three times, and the hellebron witch elf slab twice.  I mean think about it, five of those games in one weekend - my poor ickle khorne WoC just decided to call it a day, and I can confirm that you can get a least two bacon rolls into each of those sittings in relative comfort.

    I mean.. even the legion couldn't get an ash storm combo off, and that's not very sporting is it.

    Last night I went through my collection of High Elves! I still have 30 Shadow Warriors, 20 Pheonix guard, 10 sisters of the watch & 5 dragon princes new in box! 

    I'd like add a few more regular chariots but bar that I'm happy with it all. Very excited for The Old World!

    everything is very tall.. other than that, top darts sir.

    If we are getting more nurgle stuff I really want to see some pestigors. I hope they are a horde infantry unit to balance out the emphasis on elite small units in their current army. As for Nurgle dragon, I made a thread entirely dedicated to dragons so I am on board with that idea but would rather pesitgors as the omission of nurgle and khorne beasts is feeling more and more of a slap in the face.

    Totally agree as goats love a bit of stinky and bulls love a bit if blood greed

    I agree.

    What do you think we'll see tonight? 

    Nurgle or dragons? 

    A nurgle chaos dragon , none of that inside out dragon mallarky, just some spilled guts with a nurgling grinning through.

     

    and an ikkle widdy bale tauro-magma-dragon to tease the upcoming non existent chaos dwarf release.

    Yeah, what's wrong with Space ****** Übermensch Supersoldiers as the elite of a literally fascist regime being the good guys and justified in their hate crimes against their own people and 'alien races'? 

    I really don't get why this might be problematic and inspire right-wing real world Fascists to identity with their said Ubermensch super fascist faction and recnnect those to more familiar fascist ideologies..

    Oh. Wait. I do. 

    Elves... always moaning.

    Whereas we chaos dwarfs.. now we love a bit of life, love, and daemon infused artillery.

    I mean look at the stinky chaos people, they're covered in flies and they don't sit there whining like an elf, and they have to hold their guts in with old baking trays and belts.

    Angry chaos people - give them heads and skulls and red paint and they're happy - simple things. They'll even kill each other and smile.

    Perfumed chaos people - give them a bottle of perfume and a mirror and they'll be your best friend, again hardly any whinging.

    Arky's mortals - it's carnival every day at the eight points, spider outfits, comedy large weapons, gladiator outfits, cooking pots on their heads and dressing like a dead bird - happy, give them some glass beads and a comedy nest and they're happy and squawky.

    See, us chaos... we're always happy, and we got a big dragon that looks the nuts even if it is 400 bones.

    Destruction players... happy, smiley and always happy to show you their teef.

    Dead blokes - happy, always grinning with a big smile.

    Golden nuggets - happy - even the miserable ones are happy.

    Elves... always moaning,

    Got silly hats ... still moaning

    Got stupid looking mounts... still moaning

    and no big 400 bones dragon, just a walking rock with a silly hat... still moaning.

     

    Moral of the story is Be happy.. don't be an elf

    Join the chaos (bound daemon) train, heads by the pile, all with a smile. :)

    Maybe that should belong to the Unpopular Opinion threat, but here I go:

    Warhammer is just a product to sell (and make some profit for the company) and to have FUN. 

    They designed the setting to be over the top, really hard to be believable and a bit stupid sometimes. Some people will say that there are a lot of satirical points in the construction of the setting, and they are probably right. That's done on purpose by GW, as they pointed out on Warhammer Community yesterday.


    The adventures, books, comics, campaigns, RP-books or any sideproduct based on that setting are not there to point out how bad, ironic, satiric or whatever is that setting, they are made as a products to earn money becasue they are/should be FUN for the consumers (us!). Some of them are going to have some value added like positive messaje for the readers or players, others will have awesome world building or a new perspective for the story that we didn't know about, but that's another point.

    Imo, if people can't separate fictional worlds based on satirical settings from real stuff, that's people fault.

    Note: As a fan of Slashers/Monster Movies/ Horror movies, I don't need anyone, not even the director, to remind me that the movie is fiction, that there aren't people dying in my screen and I will continue cheer for the monster every time it kills some random dude/girl. Btw, I reject any act of violence and I'm not crazy appart from buying lots of plastic that i will never paint.

     

    Yup.  It says more about society today when you have to reinforce thats its just toy soldiers your making an selling.

    anyway, did someone say chaos dwarfs?

    Chaos Dwarfs bigga bumba limited edition book and battleforce will be announced at 16:30 gmt.  aka Hashut o'clock*.

    Just admit it, you'd think the Skaven way would be best even if they used really long descriptions for the other races 

    For them the most difficult  thing is the acceptance that their god isn't a proper chaos god.  They only let him sit at the table to  keep nesh's cushion warm  till he gets back.  I mean come on, even archaon won't recognise him as a proper god, and he'd play rock paper scissors with anyone given half a chance.

    While I am not arguing against Digital format, people still buy the physical copy in droves despite what the internet want the narrative to be. 

    that why I put EA and FIFA as an example, despite my desire for EA to crash and burn clearly there a large uncaring consumer market that keep buying their stuff every year and put up with their anti consumer policies

    I feel many people vastly like the physical copies and Randos on the internet greatly underestimate it appeals

     

    totally agree.

    There's still something really nice about thumbing through a really good quality book - FW heresy black books being a good example and the only books I've kept from 8th edition fantasy are Tamurkhan and Monstrous Arcanum for that reason.

    I doubt we'll  see more for Nurgle apart from the new fly sorcerer : on the BT cover art it is just him that seems new.

    Pestigors would have been great both for Nurgle and BoC .

    look, don't let facts get in the way of a good story - I'm trying to keep the man's spirits up here.

    Anyway, I'm not buying that, not for a flagship faction. I think there's going to be more, maybe not much more, but certainly something more than one fly faced wizard.

    Yeah, I am not seeing all the doom and gloom over the new battletomes I loved what we got from Stormcast and Orruk Warclans. I do not imagine Nurgle getting worse and overall I find streamlined rules overall much better. Furthermore, most of the issues stemming from Stormcast seem to come from redundancies within the army and so likely wont be an issue for Nurgle which has a lot more room for each unit to fill an invaluable niche. My only complaint with the upcoming tome is a lack of Pesitgors which I was banking on to an unbelievably high degree. 😢

    Never say never on the pestigors, after all you’ve only had one model teased and nothing said about the book.

    stinky goats might yet be a thing with a side order of other stuff- who knows maybe what’s coming is that good, which might explain the cracking big box nurgle deal.

    There are nice Mechanicum and Solar Auxilia things, but space marines with minor differences are still space marines.

    OH yes, apart from those nice mechanicum people and their toys.. such nice toys.. they're almost chaos dwarfs in their ingenuity.

    It might just be a certain anti AoS bias, but most people I know are calling them "new vampire counts"

    I wouldn't say AoS bias, but more just a straight up wash and hang of the old vampire counts book.  The cover art has the same pallette, the models are literally vlad von carstein design language and they've just reinvent and resculpt practically all your models from the ground up - skeletons, dire wolves, bats, zombies, blood knights etc.

    It's great really, as its what most other factions would kill for. chuck in a good dose of new centrepiece personality models etc and you're good to go.  They truly are the army you can pluck and put straight back into warhammer fantasy and not bat an eyelid.

    My money is still on them getting a new zombie dragon at some point as I can't see the golden wonders being the only ones to start dragoning up in the coming age of the beasties where the tithe of 95 bones will be the new normal for such winged frolics.

    Unless you're a khorne player, then you can pony up 400 bones... well .. divides by 8 and drives you into a blood crazed raging frenzy innit.
