    Well, I mean truth purity and wisdom could lead to all sorts of ends besides just magic. It's certainly a component, but I don't think that qualifies Teclis as the literal god of magic. I guess it doesn't really matter, but people shouldn't get their hopes up that he'll be the best caster ever and then get disappointed if Nagash is still stronger or whatever. GW has pushed the envelope pretty hard on nagash, I have trouble believing that teclis will be flat better at magic and honestly I don't want to see what that would even look like. 

    Teclis just needs to have better spells if he is 4lvl caster with  +2/3 to cast and access to some awesome spells it would be quite enough. Problem with Nagash is that he doesn't have many quality spells to really take advantage of so many casts (unless you're playing with Realm Spells)

    That would be one heck of a release.  Anything in particular that makes you think it will be so large?

    It won't be so large -  it will be release like OBR and Deepkin

    1. Teclis - Katakros - Aspect 

    2. Mounted hero - Liege/Arch-Kavalos-Akhelian King/Volturnos 

    3. 4 Clampack heros - Volkmortian/Boneshaper/Soulreaper/SoulMason - Tidecaster, Lotann, Soulscryer, Soulrender

    4. Spearelves - Mortek Guard - Thralls 

    5. Archers - Reavers 

    6. Silver Helms - Deathriders - Eeels 

    7. Elite Infantry - Stalkers

    8. Monster - Leviadon - Harvester 

    9. Warmachine - Crawler - Allopex 

    So it would be slightly bigger then Deepkin (one unit of elite infantry more) but almost exactly as big as OBR (actually OBR also got access to Nagash, Arkan and Morghasts). So it's quite safe bet to be in that ballpark size wise.

  3. I don't think we are getting the same scale of release as OBR/Deepkin

    - Teclis 

    - Tyrion/mounted hero dual kit (or if Tyrion doesn't make it named mounted hero/mounted hero) 

    - 4 clampack heroes (one of the them named)

    - Spearelves

    - Archers

    - Cavalery 

    - elite infantry dual kit ( Swordmaster/Elves with hammers ?) 

    - Monster/bigger monsterish cavalery/infantry/hysh spirits maybe dual kit 

    - warmachine/monster

    So are still about to see :

    - Mounted hero, 3 clampack heroes, archers, elite infantry, monster, warmachine + terrain + spells

    The only thing we have to worry about form GW is if the lockdown in China remains in effect then the factories that produce GW packaging and other products might also get shut down. As a result stock might be an issue. This is already affecting some companies, Warcradle has had to postpone their relaunch (3 years waiting) for Dystopian Wars because of several key bits of stock being left unproduced due to factory shut downs. 

     

    GW might well suffer as will any company that relies on overseas production from China. .

     

    If Adepticon is cancelled GW will simply do their preview online through the main page as normal; we just won't get the presentation aspects and such. Though they might do some kind of limited access twitch for those who bought tickets or might do a video for everyone etc.... 

    Actually China lifted lockdown in factories yesterday. And Majority of stuff that is to be released in next two monhts is already in UK. 

    Yeah they can make a live studio preview on Twitch or they will just put up an article on community page.

    So the nova and adepticon reveals will be luminarks? I really hope that is not the case that they're splitting a faction release into two studio previews.

    Some single models have already appeared in more than one. It's a little anti climatic for my taste

    Nova is in September so I doubt it will be about Lumineth

    It sounds like some people are expecting a full reveal at LVO, that sounds a bit to optimistic right? 
     

    What I want from Hysh elves is something I can’t easily come up with myself and has the same feel of the elves I fell in love with when I started the hobby. I want the range to have the same quality and fun details like the new Sisters of Battle. Also lots of cloth, I love painting capes😊 

    I wonder if GW remembers the spirit of Caledor was eaten by Slaanesh too (at the same time as Morathi).

    oh and I’d like the lore to clearify the buiseness with Lileath and her haven from end times. 

    I think it could be full reveal like DoK (they were revealed at LVO) but it depends on release schedule. I think they want to release one more army in Q1, otherwise it could be another tease and full reveal at Adepticon for April release. 

  7. I don't think they care about Elf bloat as Elves sell. Yeah MAlekith got in my opinion awesome story-arc in End Times, and he was first to seek out Elves in Age of Sigmar, he went through a lot to unify elves and give them chance to surive then went on a quest to find Elves souls. Surely he can make them into something powerful, majestic and shadowy but he isn't bland bad guy anymore. Maybe he hates Sigmar and sees him as usurper hence Gladiatorium twist byt he is more of dark anithero now, which is great. And works great with Teclis not being good guy at all - but all about the ends that justify the means mindset. I think Malerion and Teclis are more two sides of the same coin then Tyrion - who is just this good, purfied God of Light.

    Could be a sign of a twisted side in them that they let out through brutality.

    People are on the fence if the Silver Tower mistweaver is Ulgu or Hysh since her armor has Teclis and Tyrion symbols but if she is then she uses some mighty twisted magic that drives enemy's so mad they claw their own faces off.

    Teclis' perfect angelic race could have flaws they can't keep hidden. (Might be a Greek theme right there of corrupt divinity)

    Actually Teclis isn't all that good - in End Times he is like Warhammer version of Eldrad or even more. He then created Idoneth to discard them and wanted to kill all of them - he was only stopped by Tyrion - who got his curse purified. I can easilyh his Teclis using and teaching twisted magic if it can lead him to acomplish his goals. In End Times his "best friend" was Malekith after all. I would love Mistweaver to be Hysh Aelf or some kind of Teclis agent, love that mini and then Tenebrael could be Malerion assassin (both make sense).

    Teclis has always overestimated his own capabilities.  I have no doubt something will have gone wrong this time as well.

    Did he ? 
    End Times only ended badly because :

    - it had to end bad

    - Manfred betrayed everybody 😛 

    but only thanks to Teclis they had any chance.

    And didn’t he just smacked N’Kari with ease back into Realm of Chaos and then defeated Malekith in one on one magical duel?

  10. I think they will release in 2020 but they are last 1.0 army so I think GW want to make big release for them not to rush them. So they are now all in on releasing new armies not 2.0 updates and I expect Seraphons to got big update more like Gitz (but with updated models instead of new units) 

    That could be LVO might reveal Aelves as zi doubt GW will leave AoS with no releases for 3 months. 

  11. I think it won't have any old kits, there were out of order for a reason. 

    And there aren't many old kits left that Hysh Aelves could use - White Lions and Dragon Princes doesn't fit them very much maybe Skycutters but that's all. 

    Also I think LVO could show them for March/April release . Also DoK were previewed at LVO as well so that would be nice touch, also the can release teaser with some new models at LVO and do full army reveal at Adepticon for April release.

    Considering that this is the city that can take other duardin units as their own, makes this ability very useful.

    I’ll probably going to start a duardin army with that book, if it is possible to take mostly dispossesseds. In the army

    Work only on KO as Fyreslayers and other Duardin doesnt have Skyfarers keyword.

    I honestly hadn't considered the grail angle, that's interesting, especially since it does still look very High Elfy. Wasn't there some snippet in one of the battletomes this year talking about Tyrion's Cavalry tactics?

    Bretonnias were changed into ghost guardians of Aelven enclave maybe Light Twins did find it.
