Oh don't! For me wave 2 for cities I hope to see city dwarves and city aelves and some more ironweld and devoted. But! For a future wave 3 id love there to be realm specific units. I know they don't quite have the universality they they may want for factions but it would be amazing. Imagine a shyishian unit of human aelves and dwarves with their deceased ancestors holding the banners and banging the drums. A beserker aqshian unit flinging flaming flails around their heads! The Warforger definatly reminds me of a piece of art when the first Cities battletome was released. Could of been an early concept.

This is a great idea. I've always loved the cities conversions people have put out even before they had a battletome! Could the admins pin it withinh order as well? Love to see everyones work in progress and integrating aelf and Duardin with these new kits too!

Yes I think you're correct. I think they're generalising as obviously a second wave could come next year or 10 years but it will come. I'm of the mindset this release was to give the solid human base to the faction that's been asked for. They've not gone over the top, they've mentioned before they could easily have gone overboard with ideas and kept it grounded! Right approach I think. Also have we had any say in the ogors yet? I'm sure it mentions it in the battletome but I'm surprised the studio haven't touched on it.

I would perhaps say these aren't warped enough. Only some bloated cadaver and offal steed all tied together would do!

Very disappointed we've only had one incarnate so far. Was hoping for a box of three it four a bit like the malign sorcery set that was so popular and grounded the edition so well Very intriguing rumour engine today!

Seems likely a hermano y hermano big event in fourth. Tyrion and a new temple, Malerion and a new faction

Not before all the other 2nd waves needed and a 2 new factions

I might be on my own but the Lumineth have really grown on me. Can't wait for the third wave and whatever temple(?) Is next

Is this lighter than previous army boxes? What was in the Lumineth one?

I suppose it does count as rumours but to me it's only been wishlisting unfortunately

I think I don't mind the thought of soup times as much of they all get a vanguard/starter kit. Say if they merge DoK and a new Malerian faction then as long as they still uabe a vanguard box each then it takes the sting out the souping for me

With a new range of 4-5 lots will they take IJ out of warclans?

For a game that's mostly melee orientated I'd like to see the end of double turns and I go you go. Something I've not saw in AoS 3 as much compared to AoS 2 Is clever positioning games. Alternative activations but all units can trigger a charge or shoot or defence during the battle round. Command points could be used for extra strategic use . When units meet make them fight immediately, just thematically could see unit A defeats unit B , Unit B could flee or hold, player decides to hold and suffer battleshock losses, however he has unit C close by for a counter charge so wants to Keep unit A locked up for an undefended charge and will gain bonuses on said charge. Losses in combat must come from within range of weapon so no clever model removals

I honestly always thought without strength and toughness AoS could of had a D10 system for hits and saves. Would of given more variability for weapons and armour and would of got rid of the need of extra rules bolted on to make the difference

We need more of this in an Ossiarch wave 2. Absolutely stunning model and aesthetic

I was just about to start a thread like this but glad to find this! Fyreslayers have different from the AoS 1 syndrome and being stuck with a very specific theme. Don't get me wrong this is why got me into AOS in the first place! The way they expanded slayers into FS, black orcs into IJ, a fantastic faction out of spites to make the sylvaneth. I honestly thought this was the best work GW have done and it took me from 40k permanentlyz, oved being apart of a new setting taking shape! I think there's lots of great ideas above, we've got that balancing act of for one their distinct look keeps them cohesive but for two it restricts model design. Catch 22. I think keep them naked but add distinct units. I think their playstyle is always fun to watch. Always imagine them cracking and absorbing magical runes and going super mode! Keep them slow, magma turtle with howdah, breaths fire, slayer's on the back throwing bombs, thinking bowling ball sized! Magmadroth armoured artillery crew, they can have tech still we know this, give them a huge flame cannon and bolt thrower to man. I did like the thought of minidroth cavalry and it would look awesome but like others have pointed out it may not be lore friendly. I'd still have minidroth chariots though! Female slayer unit Female armoured guard unit, maybe with glaives and droth armour. Golems are a must. Slow moving bricks of lava rock that can be used as movable cover. Someone mentions fire wyverns as well. Could see a beastmaster style unit of these. Beastmaster following behind on a floating platform. I'm sure GW has been trying to throw a bone to FS with character models to show they're aren't being forgotten about. Although it's just been more of the same. How an army looks in a battlefield is really important to getting players to start with new faction. Im still confident they'll find a great way to expand the FS range, rumours abound if new IJ which gives hope of second waves to FS, ID,OBR etc

I'm surprised they're not going big and bold with these free minis. They're lovely for us that are already invested in the setting but more like the Vindicare would of been better. If they're doing it with Vindicare style models then yearly is great, if they're continuing with these sort them maybe quarterly models would be better. I'm not a subscriber but if it's another vampire model I definitely will try and get hold of one

@mods any chance we could get the mathhammer to another thread? Been going on a while now and is getting moderatly heated! 🤣

Gholemkind rockdrop pods? Have we had any pictures yet of them? Maybe a soulbound book?

Just thought that FEC could also have a trebuchet. Gonna be some disgusting 'rocks' they'll be flinging

I think the chance to phase out resin as well always pushes potential kits up? How many resin kits does FEC have? Is it just the varghulf Edit: just checked it's such a small range I should of known! Also it's I teresting to see actual weapons, I though for sure they'd be holding bit of corpses as clubs, sharpened bones as swords and flayed bodies as banners etc

I think they can do better now. I love the illusion but there isn't anything riding them! No reason they can't stay as is and add a ghoul riding some disgusting rotten beast (or hobby horse lol)

I remember it being pretty bad when it was released

What is the FEC cavalry unit?

I condlsder a new warcroll a new unit even if it shares a kit.
