i doubt both would happen in such a short span, they tend to spread the boxes out and between their game system.
i would only expect them to release only one AoS box after Dominion this year in Q3, and the next one you some time next year after a good amount of BT are release
Didn't say they had to be right after each other , rumour was of the first 6 tomes , so why not a battle box in August /september .and one in October/ November
Dominion is 3rd July, shouldn't be too long after we get stormcast and warclans.
Late Aug early sep we get nurgle vs mawtribes
Late Oct early Nov we get beast vs gloomspite
The only thing causing doubt it that would be alot of destruction and chaos in 1 year

Unfortunately not true. As per 'Stealing the Initiative' in the Contest of Generals battlepack if you finished deploying first you automatically gain priority. Reference section 4.1 'The Priority Roll'. Having priority in a round means you get to pick who goes first just like before.
Also, this is something I really do like with the rules. Not this rule in particular, but referencing, clarity, and consistent wording in general are fantastic.
So if you finish drop first you get to choose? Everywhere is say you go first

Well they did say that the new boiz will be able to be played on their own as well.
So I’m guessing that the whaaag faction, will just be able to take them in addition
I think when they say on their own it probably means like how iron jawz can be on their own. I expect a war clans book with all 3 orruk forces with a 4th allegiance (big waagh )for mixed forces

I’m starting to think that when GW said today would be the pre-order announcement, they actually meant Sunday. They don’t do articles on Saturday so it seems quite weird.
Think your right but there's still time. Actually I'd prefer tomorrow night as then its more likely to be up for pre order next Saturday 🤣

I think the skull is part of a headdress above his actual head
Yeah most likely . Not long to find out
-
For those thinking it looks undead is it possible its wearing a skull over its face?
-
Anyone got a link for the new beast of chaos scrolls or points yet please

The 3 fingered hand hanging of the pole could be from whatever race the flute rumour engine is from

This is one giant looking skull. I really hope its not a balloon, i'm not really in camp flying units with destruction factions. I like to smash face with wyverns/ snarlfangs and boars. I would make an exception for a balloon pulled by a wyvern ! !
Me too. Dont want any balloons .hoping its just stiched leather armour underneath

Could it be a new Gloomspite Gitz tome (maybe with other name) that includes a new sub-faction type. Now that everything is coming circle with that idea. It make sense as the other half of the box is simply Stormcasts, and they need to update tomes into 3.0, and they stated that the focus in "new waves" is gonna be bigger than "new factions".
Agree this new breed could be part of a gloomspite re release. A new breed so my thinking is a naughty troggoth done the nasty with a grot giving us troggrots. Would explain the slightly larger not quite grots
-
Agree with the shoulder pad, could be the rumoured new stormcast archers
-
I signed up to the news letter but wasn't sent the clue, can anyone tell me what it was please
-
So jes mentioned gloomscuttle tribe is this something to to with gloomspite gitz or something else

Vampire lord changes the characteristic, it doesnt add 1. 'A model with an ancient shield has a save characteristic of 3+'
Adding to saves is worded like the grave guard shields 'add 1 to save rolls for models carrying crypt shields' and (a lot) more shields that most units get. Changing the characteristic is quite rare.
In the AoA it very clearly states 'add 1 to the save characteristic', not 'add 1 to save rolls'.
That's exactly what I meant I just didn't bother writing characteristic. What I said was spot on the vamp Lords warscroll has a 4+ save the shield adds 1 to save(characteristic) making his save 3+(characteristic)
Remember nearly everyone gets saves wrong. When you get to add one to save rolls they just say right my save is now this, they forget that adding to save rolls only modify the dice.

6+ save like skinks can just pay for 3 armour upgrades for a 3+ save and then use one of the two handed weapons for decent attacks, rather than taking a shield and being locked to the garbage weapons.
Yes I forgot you could just buy the better armour more then once. Maybe the shield does act like normal shields which add to your save after the fact. Like a vamp lord is characteristic is 4+ on his wars roll but the shield adds to it making it 3. I guess we need an faq

Well, they have no value at the moment, they actually are over costed based on the weapon options then. It should be 1 for a shield since the 1 handed weapons are 1 point.
To the second comment, however, yeah, if they did other things, it would be pretty cool and worth the points, I think that's a big thing they skimped on frankly as every shield is different to a degree.
Shields do have a use on the basic characters that start with a 6+ save like skinks. It's away for them to get to a 3+ save

Why? I don't believe they committed to a date, so:
1. How is this a "hold up?"
2. Even if it is one, why would we "need" to be informed?
It will come! I'm looking forward to it as well, but I think we can be a bit patient, right?
Because every other old battletome being redone for 2.0 was released no more then 2 weeks from the reveal.
Need was probably the wrong word but we were told about the sylvaneth delay why not this one.
Nearly out of patients. Should have been 1 of the first 2.0 books. The book was ready to go 2 years
