    Silent People, Grotbag Scuttlers, Vampirates

    The Holy Trinity of Rumourmongers

    Chaos Duardin and Idoneth Endless Spells too, based on where you fall on the copium/reality axis, creating the Unholy Pentagram of TGA Cope

    I've heard that if you draw a pentagram, with each tip representing one of these rumours, on your bathroom mirror while chanting "copium hopium mopium", you'll summon a new "credible leak" that will be crossposted to 4chan within a week.

    I just did this and the leak I summoned was that the next specialist board game is a version of epic AoS called GODBEAST

    That makes me sad I think they are one of the coolest armies in all of those systems. After Slaves to Darkness they are probably my favourite faction (alongside BCR and DOK), and if rumours are true and they get souped I am going to be in serious financial destress. I keep trying to tell myself I can go with just Dragon Ogors but I know if some of the other units get updated sculpts I will be all in.

    I wonder if Wheel of Time will increase their popularity, I personally spent the whole show referring to the villainous army as Beastmen.

    I love this sculpt

    I would love to, but I think that creating a pirate subfaction for each army and pushing Critters and Keys for the Specialist games would not get me through the interview, making your joke even more apt 😭

    That would be fantastic! I think it could also result in some cool rules changes for Coalesced vs Starborne regarding the use of generals. Namely they may actually try and make taking a Saurus general for Coalesced have more dynamic rules changes for the army if they become more savage when the Slann is not present. I know it isn't the best rule but maybe if they fail battleshock the Seraphon will cause mortal wounds as they flee if there is not a Slann general present in a Coalesced army. 

    I for one welcome our new pirate Tyranid overlords

    Newest Rumour Engine could be Tyranids? Or possibly new Sylvaneth bugs!?

    The Reddit rumours sound like guesses

    The red harvest is about spider ****ots versus ordinary darkoath tribes
    >After that there will be warcry 2.0
    >Nighthaunt will not be that soon and they will be pitted against Lumineth.
    >Expect major release for sylvaneth but no kurnothi. Lady of vines will have a model.

    Can't see Warcry 2.0 coming out any time soon if Red Harvest has the current rules in

    "I've been coming to this here thread for discussions, rumours and flaming of each others ungodly factions since I was a bairn back in 19-tickety-boo and nobody can dang well force me to read some new fangled news-thread-contraption, not even if they give it a shine and pave it with gold. No siree, I'll stick it out in this here mosquito-infested-mud-hut here in prime The Rumour Thread territory, looking for Gnashtoof cavalry 'till the day I die - or my name isn't Old Man Carnelian"

    My brain, when considering the News Thread.

    I personally really hate the old Scyla. It's right up there with the razorgor as my least favourite sculpts. The new one is fine. 

    As for today on the last three Mondays we have seen the AoS starters, the mouth of Mork and the Dragons. They all went up at 4pm UK time which is about an hour and a half from now. Really hoping we see the Drake riders today.

    How dare you talk about my son (a Razorgor) that way

    I know this is the Rumour Thread but I just wanted to shout out all you incredible lads and ladettes for the amazing time I've spent here since I've joined, with that I'm pleased to announce that today I'll be getting married!! KingBrodd will be marrying his Queen ❤

    massive congrats!

    (although a small part of me is wondering if QueenBrodd is actually a new megagargant ...)

    I think part of it is how they're just painted like the rest of the model, but make them more maskish/death masky and suddenly it's a lot more interesting to me personally.

    In other news, I really do hope we get more AoS new inbetween the Ork and Kill Team stuff, like it's nice we know that OW and SCE are due next month but I'd like some sense of where this is going honestly. The crusade packs in 40k have been some of the most interesting content for me, so I hope we get something like it for Path to Glory

    note to self: copy the **** out of this

    It's creation was explicitly to mitigate the Cursed Skies and they've mentioned it's only in-universe logistical issues that stop every existing Stormcast putting on a set of it - once Terry gets back to Azyrheim, there's no reason for him not to put on a suit of it, especially since it reduces his chance of catching Covid having his soul devoured by 90%.

    In 'War at Amberstone Watch' it says:

     "[Thunderstrike armour] is awarded only to those Stormcasts possessed of the worthiest souls"

     So all the dweeby Stormcast have to stay in the old armour as a mark of shame 😄

    Not all Idoneth beasts are enslaved. They can make friends with cephalapods per the battletome. Also the deepmares have their eyes and I think are nit enslaved either, but the black library stuff confuses that a bit.

    There is every chance they could be friends with crabs.

    Also we could have carcinisation  spell that turns enemies into crabs.

    Whitefang make the crabs happen.

    Ah I've not read the battletome but have read all the Idoneth black library faction and yeah it's a bit brutal!

    I want Giant Crabs in AOS so bad and Idoneth are the perfect Faction for them, a lot of Polynesian animals are aquatic as well though so to mix it up we could have Magma sea life as well.

    This sounds cool but also idk have a pretty unpleasant relationship with the animals they use so maybe I'd rather there was a new happy sea faction for the crabs. Don't want to see sad enslaved crabs

    Interestingly, the other really bad unit from recent memory, Black Knights, might also turn out decent in 3.0 if the gaps between deployment zones shrink to 18" like we have been seeing on a few leaked battle plans.

    Imagine if ...Black Knights and Slaangor were good...

    Is that asking too much?

    I can see that Black Knights doing mortal wounds is maximised by lots of small units and they take up a relatively large area too so good for screening but boy they're not chea points wise.

    I don't really see what Slaangors get from the new rules but might head over to the Slaanesh forum to find out

    Better read BR:Kragnos instead though.

    Do I need to get the magnifying glass out on all the BR Kragnos pages now?
