As long as there is more then just another hero. Fyreslayers dont need another hero. Also I fully expect the xmas reveal, if anything, to be eldar related. edit: looks like i might have been right lol just as I was posting this... https://www.warhammer-community.com/2021/12/24/an-eldritch-storm-is-brewing-whats-in-store-for-warhammer-40000/

I would like another infantry unit or something related to their supposed superior craftsmanship like some artillery with rune ammo. I dont like the idea of mini-droth cavalry cuz in my head it would look goofy af. I imagine it would be like the dark iron dwarfs riding their little core hound mounts. And some actual rules that relate to their lore...like why do only some units get a rune save but others dont? They all have the same damn runes!

Just give me moar Fyreslayers

You could ally either depending on what you want/need. KO have some crazy mobility but thats about it right now but until more 3.0 books come out everything is kinda up in the air right now

Nurgle is cool and all but just give me updated Fyreslayers. And by updated I mean new stuff that isnt 5w foot heroes.

Getting a range refresh is more appropriate for a large event reveal

Im surprised the rule of 3 and the only 1 'commander' unit havent been added yet

Whoa whoa whoa...we dont use that word here

Might want to add Protectors to that list too

The new move will be to think ahead 2-3 nerfs in the future

Apparently its something called a 'Shroud Runner' which is supposed to be a Ranger Jetbike

Thats true. All the warscrolls need the Soulblight treatment in that damn near everything is good and on par with everything else in the book that results in a variety of lists. Stand outs will always exist of course.

Wow dead on match for the bike exhaust

Starting to see a theme here with these lists... And themes get noticed...

The entire border minus the gears is all eldar stuff for sure.

I hope there will be a new unit. I dont need/want more foot heroes

There there

They dont. They have a general idea how things 'should' work but thats what play testing and beta periods are for. And that goes for anything no matter what it is. When something new is made you put it through trials for a bit a time to iron out any bumps that might raise up. GW doesnt play test anything. My guess is they send out a rough draft of rules to certain youtuber's and influencers, they read it, give feedback, then GW ships it.

Pretty sure ive been saying they dont play test and only invite/listen to the influencers for a while now

Well my friend that would require a bit of...transparency...from GW. Now lets all throw our heads back and laugh

The true monster

As soon as I read the part about Fyreslayers getting new stuff I was like 'Na nope that aint true..." And OBR getting more cavalry? Arent all cavalry pretty much elite? Try to imagine yourself at a flag post. Now like a mime move your hands as if you were raising a flag. Thats me raising the bull ****** flag

GW doesnt do actual play testing. They never have and they definitely dont have the time to do it now. Actual play testing would involve a large size of players playing with a variety of lists over the course of months. In the video game industry this is known as a Beta. Most good Beta periods will have a limited release so a sample size of players can give proper feedback before a product goes live for general consumer use. GW doesnt do that in any capacity. They ask only the super popular people to check out the rules and thats its. So just like a lot of online games in recent years they release an untested incomplete product, have the player base test it, then patch it later.

Ahh I knew they released that PSA for a reason. I didnt know about the thing at the event but I knew something happened

So I was reading patch notes the other day for a game I play and I was like 'man im glad damn near every gaming company releases patch notes or some kind of road map and tells its players/customer base what its doing and what the plan is...' But then I remembered the rumor threaded existed...
