There is like no chance they will be folded still don't know why it's up for discussion.
Right now they are not popular beacause they are not that strong and army is very expensive to start with as you need at least 4 boxes of Witche Elves and those are the among most expensive GW kits.
Also that can change quickly for example if GW expands DoK with new hero and new unit (that could be batteline or for example make Stalkers better and Batteline) it gives you more variety.
A lot of people would love to play Scathborn army but problem is that Stalkers are trash and both Khinerai units serve the same role. But imagine how minor tweaks could change the army :
- batteline BloodStalkers that are decent for example 100 points for what they are now (with ability being natural 6)
- Lifetakers 280 for 20 but they will have 2'' reach.
not to mention other tweaks

I think they will go forward with their original reveal - all those articles were already written. So I think we will get full reveal, then they can keep hype by posting next Lowdown articles - for example putting one subfaction rules 2 weeks for now and then showing one warscroll next 2 weeks.

Yeah it's not unitl 31st of May, on 31st of May they will share information who situation affected their finanacial situation.

Warhammer Community Twitter account confirmed previews will happen on Saturday !

It looks like something that could match
- Idoenth Deepkin
- Malerion Aelves
- Lumineth
- Eldar (exodities ?)
-
No essential business is closing in UK so I guess there won't be any new releases anytime soon.

I actually hope not. Because if the are still continueing these articles, that means that the full army reveal has been pushed back even further. And that's just insulting.
Why would it insult anybody ? It is what it is, we are in state of pandemia all around the world and we don't know how it affects GW shippment etc, for exmaple they might not have cards, terrain, endless spells to ship because of China.

Ok, not going to try to argue, as mentioned I’d be fine either or. I agree, they could easily incorporate for example one clan of Idoneth as the river subculture into the Lumineth.
But the Warhammer example is exactly why I think Both those factions could e thrown together. She never accepted his supremacy, but he always was supreme and they were in the same faction. During the end times T&T weren’t pals either, but they are very likely in the same faction.
Anywy! I got your points : )
WFB factions weren't that dynamic. Folding DoK into Malerion Aelves makes as much sense as folding Fyreslayers into Kharadron. Yeah but Witches and Scathborn operates much different that WFB Witch Elves and back in WFB - Dark Elves were worshippers of Khaine and Malerion isn't Khaine and he won't be playing proxy like Morathi.
Tyrion and Teclis were twin brothers and for majority of End Times they were together , in AoS as well.

I think Sons might get a tease - artwork, maybe part of new model. But I think that's why they split the preview shows.
I think they might put Lumineth up for pre-orders pretty soon, and then move to Sons of Behemat.
My predictions are :
- Lumineth full reveal
- AoS book campaign book (like Wrath of Everchosen)
- Sons tease
- news about Underwolrds (new season?)
- Scions of Flame - War Cry season 2
- Wh40 next chapter of Psychic Awakening, but I think it's too little so I wouldn't be suprised by some big hit - like Fabius + Fulgrim.
- Blackstone Fortress Expansion
- Specialist Games stuff.

Morathi and Malerion are very different compared to Tyrion and Teclis. It dates back to early edition of WFB. They were in one faction but Morathi never accepted Malerion's superiority. It was shown greatly in End Times and books leading to it.
Also Daughters of Khaine are an faction on their own now and lorewise (considering WFB backstory, End Times and Age of Sigmar lore) there is no reason to fold them into Malerion's force. It would make no sense, it would make more sense to fold Deepkin into Lumineth (they are also small faction) then DoK into Malerion force as regular Witch Elves worhsip Khaine (through Morathi) and Scatheborn worship Morathi. Malerion is neither.
Orruk Warclans is horrible example - as GW made one big book to keep players having older models like Bonesplitterz having fun as there is little chance they wlill get expansion but Orruk Warcalns can. The same could be said about Cities of Sigmar.

You realise that they'll keep teasing and hiding Lumineth models until launch day Or at least until pre-order week. That's the whole intent of stretching it out and keeping something back. GW wants YOU watching their website for the last sight of the model so that you're there and ready to be tempted to order.
They never do this - whole ranges are revelead before pre-order week.
Daughters of Khaine, Idoneth Deepkin, OBR were revelead quite some time before pre-order week.

There is like almost 0% chance of DoK being folded into Malerion's Aelves.
-
I think that releases that are already planned like Lumineth and Behemat (we have seen transport logs to US) won't be postponed if anything that could speed them up but pandemic might hit future releases with potential closure of factories and transport chain problems involving China, where spells, terrain etc are manufactured.

I just bought into DoK by ordering the Book and the SC Box. But I wonder where to go next. Can I go around the big blocks Witch Aelves? I also play Gitz and I am not really interested in fielding another horde Style army. But I actually love all of the ranges models. Any advice would be helpful.
Hi, there is a way to play more elite version of DoK. I played some games with lists like :
Mortahi, Cauldron of Blood, Bloodwrack Shrine, 30 SoS with bucklers, 20 Blood Sisters, 10 Witch Elves and 5 Heartrenders. And I'm ultra competitive so such an army is still good enough to take it tournament if you want.
In nutshell you will need those 40 Witch Elves/Sisters of Slaughter anyway. Starting from SC I would go :
1. Another Start Collecting
2. 2-3 boxes of witches
3. one box of khinerai
You can easily build decent 1-1,5k with it for example :
SQ on Cauldron, Hag Queen, Medusa, 2x10 Witches, 10 Blood Sisters, 5 Heartrenders - 1170 points such lists can easily give you feel how DoK army plays with Heartrenders, Cauldron, how Hag Queen and Medusa works etc . And then expand into 2k :
4. Morathi
5. 1-2 boxes of witch elves (to have 40 in total)
6. 2 boxes of Melusai (to have 20 Blood Sisters in total)
Morathi alone will make you army 2k ( SQ on Cauldon, Bloodwrack Shrine, Hag Queen, Morathi, 3x10 Witches, 10 Blood Sisters, 5 Heartrenders) so you can play some 2k games and then extra 10-20 Witches and 10 Blood Sisters will be an awesome expansion.

Following my previous prophetic warning about Adepticon, I would expect many many things to now be released either late or not at all this year. 2020 is going to be atypical to say the least, stay safe all.
So far there is no shock supply and cargo transport works as normal also - majority of upcoming release is in USA - for sure the will wanna to sell it. Also there is huge demand for such stuff that you can do at home now.
-
I like minis a lot but agree that teasing something for so long doesn't help. It got more frustrating then good. I hope their release is soon after Adepticon if it's another month or so then I will lose all interest.
-
Yeah judging by OBR/Deepkin release we still should get minimum :
- 3 more clampack heroes
- mounted hero/named charcter dual kit (might be Tyrion)
- elite infantry dual kit
- 2 kits out of 3 possible - warmachine, monster, bigger infantry/cavalery.
-
I wonder how big this release it , with it focus on Stone etc I think me might not see Tyrion and fiery stuff with it.
-
I hope Tyrion is part of this army

My bet is Malerion Aelves will be very dragonic alike. With Imrik and Alith Anar making a comeback.
