  1. Could be as others have said an upgrade sprue for the Mega Gargant kit. 

    On the "no more AoS releases after Skaven/Sylvaneth" thing- the way the releases have been going everything [including 40k] is really strung out [40k has had only one proper army release this year I think]. So one of the Slyvaneth or Skaven books could come out end of September -then its just 2 months and then Christmas release window. They could easily be putting out cursed city supplements, WarCry 2 and underworlds in those months plus the battle boxes in December. Still a reasonably full schedule, plus they will have released 6 battle tomes this year by then [I think]- Fyreslayers, Deepkin, DoK, Nighthaunt, Skaven and Sylvaneth. Model light, yes but they are clearly having problems with supply/production and think WarCry 2 and the Cursed City expansions could be good for adding to the overall range as well.

  2. Well that was surprising-  didn't expect another battle box [which seems pretty packed?] and a new kit is great but the absence of battle tomes is very strange. I did read elsewhere someone saying that GW are more badly hit by covid etc than people realise, might explain it. The 40k releases seem really screwed up as well, even if they are more numerous. 

    Plus side- our worries about dwarf soup have yet to materialise.

    I do really like that eldar corsair..

    But I'd really love some new dwarfs/squats.. hopefully this year..

    Possibly a corsair. But I would love for wanderer + kurnothi to develop into an animal based sylvaneth army, worshipping Kurnoth.

    Oh yeah me too! Totally be up for that as I've loved the Kurnothi that have been released and I've done a few centaur conversions- they look so cool. They are a force I'd collect other than dwarfs I think [although VC are very tempting].

    Judging from Whitefang's likes I think this is a Corsair - which looks like a radical and interesting development for 40k. Might be possible conversion material for Kurnothi in the future too- you never know!

    GW have shown a proper pic of the new Avatar- looks amazing in proper photos..

    I'm glad the AoS leaks don't get the potato cam treatment, would much rather see them shown properly in all their glory. 

     

    Yeah I think its a shame for GW and a bit of a ****** move revealing this the day before GW are to reveal it.

    Looking forward to seeing proper non-potato cam pics. Not sure one it - I love the axe and I think I like the bare head but there's something with the new eldar designs that isn't for me . Corsairs look like they could interesting though.

     

  5. I think it might be an eldar corsair? Possibly a wanderer model? Looks like a feather in their hair - maybe a riff on the old wood elf falconer model possibly to go with the sylvaneth? The corsair idea is because they are supposed to be more flamboyant than other eldar. [probably more of a long shot]

    What if the model that Vince was painting is Grombindal?!

    What is this? 

    A soup tome then with a single Grombindal model as the release? A little grim.. although I'd love a new Grombindal model like Gotrek I'd hope he'd be bringing a few reinforcements, not holding my breath !

    After the 2 vulture models they kind of revealed in the last few days this one is still mia. Just wanted to mention it.

    I think thats the carrion bird sitting on the Chaos knight shoulder piece from the sneak peek preview video. 

    Todays one looks to be like the mechanical  lashing tentacles chaos war machines have so another knight thing?

    No live streamed Preview, but will apparently be showing some things off via Community. I wouldn't get my hopes up for much though.

    Yeah I think they might save a few things for a reveal at LVO at the end of Jan [I may mistaken about that event!].

    There is quite a backlog of stuff for them to get through in January already! But I hope they give us a teaser taster at New Year of what might be coming in 2022.

    FYI Vince does not believe that AoS is going to get a big release of models anytime soon (like until later next year) and that they are going to just release Hero/Battletomes for a while.

    which mean people are probably reading too much on his comment from the last video where i believe he was promoting his game that he and Tabletop Minion wrote and he probably doesn't have insider information

    Its kind of what 40k had last year - I remember 40k boards looking at AoS very enviously as we had Cursed City coming out and some brilliant other releases via Underworlds and new Battle Tomes while 40k mostly had just Space Marine and Necron releases.The new Killteam box then was Necrons vs Spacemarines and looked terrible. Its maybe exacerbated by the shipping/supply issues due to the pandemic and Brexit but it will swing back round in a few months. Cursed City's return could bring some interesting models, Warcry might get some new things as well as Underworlds in the meantime. Disappointing yes, but I don't think it means GW doesn't value AoS, the emphasis has just shifted to 40k for the next few months, it will shift back I wouldn't worry too much.  Hopefully we will get a few surprises/previews/reveals to keep us going in the meantime.

    Most of the previous preview (that I recall) has been released or seen in the wild as coming up. So considering GW normally gives us a rough 3 month window on previews, we are due for another and its something they often do to kick off the new year. There are also strong hints that Eldar are getting more than 1 reworked and 2 new kits this year from earlier rumours that, thus far, have proven very accurate. So I'd wager at the very least they might drop another Eldar hint or rumour down through that if not a full preview of upcoming major changes for them. 

     

     

    Yes I'm expecting more eldar to be revealed - maybe a s part of the next Kill Team set and I suppose they might announce the preview later  in the week [they have before?].

    I'm guessing we'll get another Underworlds Warband, maybe something for Warcry and hopefully a set of hints at what's coming for both main systems .

    I think we will see new minis in the expansions. When the extra minis were first revealed before the troubles at the launch of Cursed City, the bases were already different from cursed City. 

    All these rumour engines could be from the expansions. The pics we thought were Nighthaunt could be from the expansions as well .

    Super happy Cursed City is coming back and with expansions! I'm fairly sure I remember the Cursed City Map having areas named which suggested Ghouls and Spirits in each of them. Hopefully we wills more in the holiday reveals.

    As to the part about wearing shoes on knees and pretending to be a dwarf.. Wanna see my favourite piece of Warhammer artwork ever released? Behold:

    Man I love that artwork! I really hope GW release dwarfs that reflect it! Although the current Iron breakers and Hammerers are pretty close the previous warriors didn't quite get there. 

    • LOVE IT! 1
  13. Yeah that sounds like Kurnothi are a good way off, probably a longer term development idea. I like the idea of a faun/centaur army, possibly with other elves, not wild about humans but it depends on how they are done I guess. This probably means Sylvaneth will get expanded on their own then which should be interesting as there is a lot of room for ideas to be explored. 

    Still hoping we get a few AoS hints or at least news at the festive Preview ..[although the Eldar rumours have reignited my interest in my old army].

  14. 15 minutes ago, novakai said:

    Hard to say if it anything else but Eldar with that Eldar background they are using

    Its probably a hint that Eldar are soon but I'd guess its simply the theme of the advent engine, the previous ones have been themed around chaos engines, mechanicus etc..so I'd expect other things beyond eldar, but perhaps a good chunk of eldar stuff. There is a rumour monger who claims to be posting rumours about an upcoming eldar release in a similar manner to the rumour engine, which is beginning to feel a little more than coincidence...

    No idea what to expect/hope for in terms of AoS but still hoping for some Squat stuff.

    Long time no see, TGA :D 

    I SWEAR I read a rumor* a few days ago (here ?) saying the next dual boxed set for AOS would be Idoneth vs Fyreslayxers (that much we already heard), with one new Hero each side : an Idoneth Lady with the two swords in the back like the recent RE, and a new Fyrelsayers Hero with some kind of magmapike.

    ... That would fit today's RE ...

    P.-S. ; I'm sad we don't have more Chorf rumors, but at least the Warcry Red Harvest set indeed had new Chaos scenery made by those Hashut-worshipping duardin ;)

    *EDIT : yep, a rumor passed on by @Indecisive on page 3113. It indeed seems plausible... 

    Where have you been? Did you get lost in Nurgles Garden? Good to see you back.

    ADVENT CALENDAR RUMOUR ENGINE CONFIRMED!!

    EXCITEMENT ENGAGED!

    I would like some more Spiderfang rumours, might add some Skaven or Beasts of Chaos in the mix for a box set. More about the new Nighthaunt monster would be awesome and some kind of confirmation about Kurnothi to change things up. Thanks in advance GW!

    (could add a new phoenix lord for 40k, wont mind that one)

    I'd love some Grungni Dwarf hints but I reckon they are still a away off. Interested to see what is coming, Kurnothi could be interesting if they appear. 

    For 40k really, really crossing my fingers for some Squat rumours.

    I think it is obvious that if this continues we will invariably get some AOS/40K reveals but due to shipping delays and other outstanding issues that we shouldn't hold our breath as it will likely be some time. We also tend to get most of our reveals in big events so that makes it even less likely to have much revealed in these Monday reveals but I still think we will see AOS and 40k models pop up time to time. 

    I was a bit disappointed but they are probably saving the AoS/ 40k reveals for the preview over the holidays. Plus tomorrow has another Rumour engine and then is allowed by the advent rumour engines so hopefully lots of hints as to what might be coming next year!

    Were the rumors disproved already? I thought we got a pseudo confirmation from Whitefang or did I misinterpret it? 

    I took Whitefangs reaction to say it was a mix of guesswork and correct information, notably it contains his rumour of the Fyreslayer vs Deepkin box. I do expect Chaos Dwarfs to come, how soon is anyones guess. Not sure about the Silent People appearing this edition.

  18. I'm kind of glad those rumours are off - didn't feel right to me- more like guessing around a few established rumours. Still hoping for new dwarfs of the non chaos type next year. Although If Squats arrive next year I'll probably be plenty happy [KO kit bashing!]

    Hopefully will start to get some hints in the advent rumour engines soon! [and a few reveals over Christmas/new year].

  19. Just catching up with this, interesting rumours ! I'm wondering how much will be old kits and how much new- I guess some kits hold up better than others. The other thing that popped into my head was- will they bring back/use the Regiments of Renown [I'm thinking form my point of view Bugmans Dwarf Rangers for example]. Really excited about what they can do with the new plastic tech and sculpting applied to the classic armies.

    Last night I went through my collection of High Elves! I still have 30 Shadow Warriors, 20 Pheonix guard, 10 sisters of the watch & 5 dragon princes new in box! 

    I'd like add a few more regular chariots but bar that I'm happy with it all. Very excited for The Old World!

    Nice High Elves ! I still have a third edition HE force- Jes Goodwin sculpted silver helms, the plastic spearmen and archers, 3 bolt throwers and 2 tiranoc chariots.. haven't touched them in ages, might need to send the to a new home sometime..
