  1. Kinda crazy, within the next 7-8 months we could see releases for Beastmen, Moonclan, Slaanesh, Darkoath and the Light/Dark Aelves. That’s basically everything we’ve had Rumors for since the start of AoS, meaning we’re totally in the dark. Really really exciting.

    I'm wondering if some if these aren't starter set versions of Nighthaunt heroes. So the ghost with two flails from the video could be the same as the Spirit Torment but in a different pose and with a different head.  We appear to have two different versions of the Lord Executioner, one with the gibbet on their back and one without. It's still not entirely clear if any of these are shadespire models hiding in plain sight, as the bases are more ambiguous than they seem.

    There also appears to be two variants on the lantern bearer that look like alternate builds/loadouts, one with a lantern and a mace and one with a big vase and a one-handed axe.

    That could be possible. Is there a precedent for this kind of thing? 

    Yeah the lantern bearer model intrigued me as well, potentially different load outs.

    there could also be different troops that haven’t been singled out yet.

  3. Damn that article was good. 

    - So existing Nighthaunt stuff is still supported (Hosts, Hexwraiths etc). I recall some people being concerned so that puts that to rest. 

    - This faction will now be HUGE!

  4. So strange seeing all the different gaming cultures.

    For my part me and my friends link up, hang out and play once or twice a week. It’s something we all like doing so we play, hang out and just enjoy the game.

     We use whatever scrolls are in the books, play chill and do dumb stuff in the game if it will be funner or more interesting. Sometimes we have more serious games, which we keep a record of just for lolz.

  5. Damn so if everything pans out we’re looking at: 

    - Magic Supplement 

    - Continuation Of MP

    - AoS 2

    - Nighthaunt

    - Stormcast Wizards

    - Moonclan 

    - Slaanesh

    - Ironjawz

    All in around half a year or so. That plus the start of this year really bodes well for AoS and the GW teams enhanced production capabilities.

    What they should have done, is released a Darkling Covens battletome and couple new hero models.   I mostly think warhammer legends is a waste of time and effort when they should be updating a lot of these factions.

     

    There is no reason for the Darkling Covens, Dispossessed, Wanderers, Swifthawk Agents, Gutbusters, Greenskinz and Slaves to Darkness, etc.  To not have a battletome when the Bonesplitterz and Flesh-Eater Courts do.  

    But this hasn’t taken up production time at all. It’s just an easy to produce filler period for them that’s adding plus content for people with large Dark Elf collections. 

    A lot of those factions probably will get a Battletome, but obviously haven’t yet. I don’t know how GW could have done better with their AoS drops this year, with almost 1 Battletome a month, and more rumoured to come.

    I like your spirit, but GW history not only suggests, but actually demonstrates, that they can and will Squat not just units, but entire armies.

    Even if that is the case, I wouldn’t think the above mentioned factions are ever going to be at risk. 

    Something like Lion Rangers? Yeah sure they could go or be folded into another faction. 

  8. I’d think it’s almost certain the 30 or so factions with battletomes and/or allegiance abilities will not be dropped. 

    Theres absolutely no precedent as of now for units to get dropped anyway, but factions with heavy development would never be dropped.
