  1. Yeah that "rumour" leak doesn't add up as much as I'd like it to. New KO and more dwarfs-yes please [although I'd like them out of cities]. It all doesn't quite sit right- like two much info. The big 40k leak was the exception, generally big leaks are bobbins..

    Looking forward to the Advent rumour engines and the Christmas/new year reveals!

  2. Those boxes look pretty cool, they don't appeal to me, although the vamp one is a bit tempting.. 

    Vanguard boxes.. look like a good set but not wild on that price point, but I guess it will depend on the contents of each box.

    For now keeping my pennies for new dwarfs/squats ..[I live in hope!😇]

  3. I was thinking the other day- January should bring a new battletome with a decent model release due to the pattern of 40k releases. My thinking is the next 3 40k codex are all books + single model [thats up to Tau in January]. Three 40k books in a row is unlikely to be followed by another Codex straight away so AoS likely to get a release? 40k Chaos is likely early 2022 but I don't see it coming in January. Christmas/New Year reveals should be interesting! {no clue what is likely next}.

    I think this is something for 40k. It looks like a big scenic base. Maybe a new model for the 1 year subscription?

    Scenic base- maybe a commemorative model or something for a new boxed game? The fingers look ork/urruk or maybe ghoul.  

    Edit: Maybe the Skaven Eshin underworlds war band ? [thats rumoured right?]

    I've noticed New Model Money now seems to largely be the purview of Specialist/boxed games. I wouldn't get too excited about seeing 40k/AoS stuff too often.

    Probably because all the new big releases for both systems are being saved for the New Year and the festive Rumour Engines..

    Normally those 4chan rumours are a bust, but this one might have been on to something.

    That was one day before the Slaughterguy reveal, not the most unbelievable of guesses but right off the bat not blatantly wrong like most "leaks" from that site.
     

    Cheers! Interesting! For those who don't want to go there the quote is [edited for language]

    Quote

    The red harvest is about spider [removed] 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

    No Kurnothi would be a shame but at the same time I think they could do a lot more with Sylvaneth. 

    Still hoping for something dwarf-y in 2022, squats or new Grungni Dwarfs. 

    I wonder if they intend to add more war bands to War Cry and are they going to stick to just chaos- it has more of a Necromunda type feel of gangs rather than Killteam at the moment.

    I mean if someone would ask me who this guy is: 

    b8Hr219.png  

    id say he's a dwarf.

    Yeah I was briefly exciting thinking there might more than one pirate.. but alas no. 

    The Ogre Pirate is the pick of the bunch for me, I do like the GS Cult model as well. 

    Everything else is fine but not really my thing, pleased for others who got stuff they are thrilled by. Nice to see more Darkoath- love the old witch model. 

    I was thinking the Christmas model might be a gobbo and it is a bit of a relief as well as I was worried the dwarf/squat rumour engines might have just been a Christmas model so its nice to think 2022 might bring some proper dwarf goodness.

    Yeah, but it's halfling pirates ... And it's an underworlds warband

    That would be epic and I would so buy that!! Especially if they were done by the same sculptor that did the BB team. 

    I think I may now need Halfling pirates... GW get on it!!

    {actually Halflings are absent from AoS - that would be a nice return.. }

    I'm happy with the 40k leaks. Now I know I won't be sending a single penny on it until the Squats are out.

    Yep me too! Would like to get a sense of when and what they will look like though.. Similarly I'm hoping for hints of new Dwarfs for AoS at some point [although I can't see them getting anything until next year at the earliest and I doubt they will appear tomorrow].

    Well if it is accurate he just cost his "buddy" his job, thats waaaaay too much identifying info to be sharing. 


    Given the "tone" just sounds like someone trying to add some clout to their whine, but i suspect we shall see on Saturday.

    Yep generally good rumours come from anonymous sources - this doesn't sound right to me but we will see very soon I'm sure.

  10. I don't really have a massive problem with Lumineth getting another wave in a year or so- its good to see a faction getting filled out and evidently they have intended this from the start. I think I remember from my Warseer days Harry saying that High Elves were one of the best sellers so I presume their AoS cousins would do likewise. I can see Malerion and Tyrion coming close to each other as well- they seem to be connected somehow. 

    Saying that other factions need some love- personally I really want to see new dwarfs- ideally new KO and Grungni faction/classic dwarfs and others are obviously keen for Chaos dwarfs. Kurnothi as a sylvaneth expansion as well. Skaven, BoC, FEC all need new stuff Seraphon ... new Cities stuff. That said we don't have much clue as to what is coming in the next few moths beyond a chaos tome. Hoping next week with give a few clues, if not the New Year is a good bet for some hints/reveals.

    Hello, again me :) What is coming next to WU?

     

      Reveal hidden contents

    Yes Pirate ogre/maneater is coming with his parrot and monkey
    Next warband will be Necromancer and zombies (they have interesting link to lighting bolts :D)
    New starter will include Malerion aelves

    Human warband=Witch hunters
    And yes we are still getting 8 warbands this season.

     

    Nice! Sounds like fun releases ahead!

    The preorders are up and Skaeths Wild Hunt and other war bands are up apparently.. 

    Technically the Kurnothi get a release!

  12. I always think Underworlds are great for alternative sculpts for armies and nice to buy into if you don't want a full army but want something new to paint or try out. These are all probably alt sculpts/experiments which are part of the design process but don't, for whatever reason, make it into full releases- I think its great we can get our paws on them. I think 40k misses out by not having something similar. 

    The second box- I like it actually because for me the problem with starter sets is what of you don't like either faction? With new sets released across the year you can find one that suits you better. As long as the war bands don't get stuck in a box and come out separately I think its fine.

  13. Well they do seem to like their boxed sets - seems similar to how they are doing KillTeam- gives more playing content I guess 🤷‍♂️.

    Pirate ogor on the way by the looks of it. Sad those rumours excluded any dwarfs but you can't have everything. Eshin assassins would be cool an I'm guessing Order of Sigmar/Witchhunters as one [maybe the one after pirates].

    Love the vampiress, she looks awesome. I might give her some spare Escher hair I have in my bits box, to make her more punk rock though. Or tattoos on her shaved head.

    Yeah I think she looks awesome but I'd prefer hair.. not a fan of bald vamps [of either sex!]

    Looking forward to the big preview! Hope they show some cool new stuff. Beyond the remaining kits for Stormcast we don't have much of a clue what is coming so should be exciting!

  15. So are we hoping for a new model Monday pic today? Maybe a teaser for Warcry or something from the next Underworlds war band for this season? I think those are the only things coming up before Christmas which are unknown at this stage [Templars are fully revealed as are the next Killteam models]. 

    Maybe a surprise of some sort? [Hopefully someone short with a beard, armour and a big axe...]😇

  16. Looks interesting- lots of mentions of dwarf holds everywhere, night and forest goblins mentioned and clearly a Tomb Kings icon at the bottom of the map [scarab and sunrays]. Good setting for a mixture of factions , although I do have concerns the focus seems to be mostly human factions so far- Kislev, Cathay, Empire, Brets and mostly the Boarder Princes..

    One thing I hadn't considered before now... maybe the combining of FS and KO will be related to the release of Chorfs? Like the orderly stunties have to set aside their differences and band together against the Hash-up-to-no-goods?

    I think its more to do with the with Dwarfs reuniting to reclaim their kingdoms, but the return of Grungni could push the Chorfs to be more active and aggressive, Belakors fluff mentioned him knowing that some would be interested in the return of their old foe.
