Baz

Yes, he's done loads including broken realms. He's completed the Aqshy part of the book and started the ghyran side today which is the one I'm most looking forward to.

Rumours of Tau Vespids getting some new models so it could be that.

I was thinking exactly the same thing! Glad they didn't I don't think I can take more disappointment. I thought the troll king antlers were going to be something kurnothi. Maybe we get another rumour engine tomorrow.

Warhammer day and preview 14 October https://www.warhammer-community.com/2023/09/18/celebrate-warhammer-day-with-a-brand-new-miniature/

So 2+ tough on YouTube is doing a series of daily videos going through the narrative of book 2 if you want to know what's happening. Worth a listen.

So book 3 I'm expecting Sylvaneth, Khorne and skaven. I do agree that the dawnbringer series is setting up Ushoran and FEC as the big bad guy so expect that for book 4 and the subsequent FEC battletome.

GW like to alternate between 40k and aos releases so maybe space marines preorder?

So the review by @Sprues&Brewsmentions that sylvaneth play a role in the book and also some speculation about what factions will appear in book 3. Any chance of some detailed info re sylvaneth from book 2 in spoiler format?

Something that's going to help them break into Azyr.

Just these, the first from Whitefang and a like from whitefang in the second. We don't have anything regarding what's coming and how many kits etc.

Yes makes sense if there is a crusade in Aqshy then fyreslayers would be involved heavily just like a crusade in ghyran would bring in the Sylvaneth/Kurnothi. Both would be good narrative reasons to release new models.

Maybe in October as part of the warhammer 40th anniversary celebrations. I can see multiple celebration releases then including old world.

So a great looking fyreslayers warband. Tbh I was expecting the next warband to be sylvaneth/Kurnothi so this was a little surprise. So could be that the order v death warband is sylvaneth v OBR? Either way that won't be until a winter release which will be next year. So does this mean that the rumoured Kurnothi release is more then the warcry warband I suppose we won't know until we start getting some hints about book 3.

£90 for the trogg box and the rest will be up tomorrow.

Any more whispers for us, maybe some book 3 rumours?

I hope so! Although it does remind me of some text on the warhammer community page when they announced the broken realms books and specifically they mentioned alarielle going into a rage and turning on allies and enemies alike. We never saw this happen in the broken realms series and I still think there was an alarielle book due to come out to show all this happening but because of covid they decided not to bother. It was also strange that they went straight into the ritual of life by alarielle at the beginning of the final book without any explanation or reasoning previously which also makes me think that there was something planned book wise but cancelled. Maybe we might see some version of this storyline in the dawnbringers books?

From the latest episode of Loremasters re the coin malleus. "Even some supposed allies are disturbed by the presence of so many Sigmarites, such as the groves of the most bitter hearted and isolationist of the sylvaneth who may respond aggressively to hordes of mortals cutting down forests for fuel and timber on their way through." Maybe a hint as to why if it is the ghyran crusade that fails.

So the Kurnothi rumours have been hinted at by whitefang. I did ask about a kurnoth model and got a laugh emoji from whitefang which I found out later was not a negative response. Personally I feel that a warcry warband is on the way in the same way as the cities hunters. The loremasters video which mentioned ogres and sylvaneth in the gnarlwood has revealed the ogor gorgers as a warband and with one order warband to be revealed I think it's kurnothi. The narrative to dawnbringers makes sense that if a crusade goes into ghyran and causes orruks and the troll king to rise then there will be other ramifications and the sylvaneth/Kurnothi will have to play an important role in this. Speculation wise would love to see the following kits. Kurnoth reborn in all his majestic glory. Kurnothi tracker/hunters reminiscent of the old wood elf waywatchers. Kurnothi fighters like the old wood elf wardancers Centaur cavalry like wild riders.

Thats just a guess at the moment. We've had no real rumours about it yet.

They said marines in a few weeks and I think ironjawz will be mid to late September

Just that the trogg king had been asleep for so long people built a portal on top of him and cave paintings drawn on him because nobody knew that it was the trogg king.

Yes, mentioned cave paintings on the stream. Its a sign people!!

Hope its more, if the ancient trogg King is awoken in ghyran who knows what else can return???

Some great models there for destruction fans. Nice to see that the ironjawz rules will be released as a free downloadble document which could also be good news for future faction releases (looking at you Kurnothi) Speaking of Kurnothi, was a little surprised to see the ogors and cities paired together was expecting sylvaneth/Kurnothi. As there is one more order warband to be revealed does this mean they will be a separate release or paired with krullboyz warband? All this means that we could be looking at Kurnothi for book 3, maybe a couple of kits to be revealed together. I hope so.
