  1. Couple of things looking at the Warcry 2.0 Seraphon section. 

    First. Chameleon skinks are not present while in hindsight this seems obvious because there's a new warband coming out. I'm curious if this is a way of trying to figure out what is coming potentially for other factions. 

    Second. Skinks with Boltspitters and Shields are no longer an option. I wonder if this was left out for balance reasons or potentially to that load out being left out in the upcoming Battletome.

    I can say pretty certainly it is not a Seraphon thing despite the Rumor Engine saying "Wait! An image, and it’s just as zoomed-in and impenetrable as the Ancient Ones decreed! " Seraphon rope/cord methods to this point arent as small as the RE and those metal brackets that the feathers are attached to are not very Seraphon either.

    A word of caution though ; the Skink in the video could be an Order Thrall / Feral Beast (they are in the new Core Rules, like the Furies etc. from 1st edition...). But I hope he's from a (Feral) Seraphon Warband proper !

    I really don't care in what form we get new Seraphon, as long as we get new Seraphon. I'm pretty sure even if they do "Feral" Seraphon they'll make them usable as or with existing warbands/AoS proper.

  4. Personally I think each box will feature a Chaos Warband for the 3 remaining mono-god factions. So as many have posted..

    Sundered Fate - Disciples of Tzeentch vs. Seraphon
    Bloodhunt - Blades of Khorne vs. Ogors
    Nightmare Quest - Hedonites of Slaanesh vs. Death (I'm thinking FEC or a Vyrkos warband)

    I know it's wishful thinking at this point but I'm hoping this is Maleneth Witchblade's pendant from the Realmslayer series. I'm sure it's something Space Marine though.. feels about time for that.

    Like the next kill team arc in the space hulk, with different parts of the Gallowdark added in every new box, yes. 

    Looking forward for more Seraphon ruins, or, better, a board to play inside the ruined Temple-Ship !!!

    They do have rules in the new book for going through doorways/hallways. I know that fits in with past expansions but I also hope it's a bit of future proofing for something like a templeship board.

  7. Seems like a lot of our Rumor Guru's have not predicted anything past the end of this year. Which means no confirmation of Seraphon even though it's likely they are getting something. 

    I hope we'll be blessed with a hint or image or teaser of what to expect (especially for Seraphon)

    The Orb is also very similar to the Underworlds Warband. Definitely Seraphon!!

    I know the device they hold is a "black hole bomb".

    I'm assuming the rumor engine is another terraforming device? 

    This is almost 100% Warcry terrain. I would love it to be a new model like a Slann, warbeast, astrolith or whatever. However considering I went nuts over the Heart of Ghur box over the couple of pieces of Seraphon ruins, I'll be just as happy for more terrain.

    I wonder what GW’s MO is on updating old kits. They had so many chances to upgrade Seraphon, now Skaven etc… don’t they know they’ll push products by simply updating old kits? Is something like Thondia even flying off shelves ?

    As someone who runs a large retail store I can tell you in fact that Thondia is not flying off the shelves. However I can't blame GW for trying new things.

    In terms of updating old armies I think GW amongst other issues has the Chicken and the Egg problem. Age of Sigmar is still a fraction of what Warhammer 40,000 sells. So GW has to decide to either update a model range that is a fraction of a fraction or introduce new factions/models in order to strike goal. Issue is are sales low cause it's unpopular or because people love the faction but are waiting for new things to do buy. 

    Only in recent years has GW dramatically increased it's staff and production abilities. This however hasn't really born too much fruit due to COVID and all the troubles that has spawned. 

    For all we know GW planned on having updated ranges for the Skaven this release but because of all of the issues they decided to delay finishing it in order to produce models with less options like Sylvaneth. 

    Just my thoughts as I unfortunately don't have more insight than anyone else.

    Oh wait what could we get Warcry reveals at Gencon!?

    I hope so, I'll be there trying to get as much info as possible. Last time I went.. which now feels forever ago they had some Blood Bowl and Underworlds reveals.

    Theres pics of four creatures at the 4:00 mark that makes me wonder if they'll get models like the murder chickens and imps from season 1.

    He even seems to skim past these pages with a quikness. 

    I'm curious if they could be doing these beasts as a way to give us new salamanders/razordons or new style of hunting packs for Seraphon?

  12. Im hoping they'll be making some announcements at GenCon time. Lines up with the Warcry releases at least but it would be great to see an updated roadmap then. I would ideally like 6 months out so we would get at least a hint of the Jan-Feb releases.

    Been pondering The Great Plan as of late and so am a little out of the rumor loop. Do we know if non-Chaos warbands are coming to WarCry? I was a bit disappointed to see yet more stinky/burly/horny guys facing off in the new edition. But with it having a season-esque schedule, similar to Kill Team, surely we will see something from the other factions?

    And are there are any juicy rumors about major Age of Sigmar releases, aside from the Slaves to Darkness leaks?

    To catch you up real quick

    When the new Warcry was officially revealed they put out a map featuring several locations/camps and there's a good majority that look non-chaos.

    Factions we've seen on the map
    Ogors
    Orruk Warclans
    2 Flavors of Gloomspite Gitz
    Free peoples
    Soulblight

    No specific mention of Stormcast (which is weird for an AoS property) but the new edition of Warcry focuses on the Gnarlwood where a crashed Seraphon void ship, Eye of Chotec serves as the settings MacGuffin. 

    Outside of the LRL vs. Tzeentch Box and 2 Destruction factions being released before the new Prisoners with Jobs to Darkness models/book. There havent been much.

    As a Seraphon player we did see a very Seraphon Spear and a very jungley fern in the rumor engine. Hopefully this means that Seraphon will see new model(s) sometime in the new year.

    I really enjoy the new models. But am dissapointed it wasnt a Destruction Warband revealed!!

    They gotta save non-Chaos warbands for a fancy reveal. I'm sure it'll get a ton of people hyped up for the game. I'm hoping around launch they'll show off at least one other warband coming out for this cycle.

  15. Any hints with this ad? Is it a nurgle frog, indigenous frog or maybe seraphon frog? Looks like they're using the old revealed map from one of the earlier articles as a background. I think most of the artwork has been seen... minus the poorly copied pasted frog from probably the rulebook? 
    May be an image of text that says 'FIENDLY FROG SAYS DO NOT Stray from the path DONOT DO DisturbANYTHING ANYTHIN DO NOT DONOT Speak to the locals Approach encampments Remember- Only YOU can prevent NARLWOOD DISAPPEARANCES'
