    Seraphon- another faction GW already mentioned: they are following leylines to purify them. Dawnbringers like leylines. Some skinks/slann have even directed crusades to settle near leylines so they're helping one another defend it.

    Is it too early to not be chastised for hoping for new Seraphon models in Dawnbringers? There's a Constellation from the AoS: Soulbound RPG called Shepard's Path which are Starborne that focus on defensive structures. I would love to see either a new hero, temple guard or most wishfully a new monster.

    So we're definitely getting Sylvaneth/Kurnothi, but what are the symbols on the bugs? Could they mean something? Have they already appeared elsewhere? Am I looking too much into this?

    Silent People obviously :P

    It's probably the Kurnothi sub-faction symbol.

    Archaon's main captain/commander, and my money is on her being a narrative foil to Yndrasta.

    That would be nice. I feel like a competent second in command always makes the bad guy all that more menacing. Plus, new AoS characters always give a lot of opportunity of fleshing out the realms lore wise.

  4. Hopefully the spear is for Valkia. I would love to see an "upsized" model like what happened with Sigvald, make her more Daemon Prince-ly in size. 

    However I'm pretty excited because whoever it is for it's almost certainly for Age of Sigmar. No tech doo-dads on the haft of the spear.

    I think you are expecting too much for this third book. 🥲

     I wonder if we're gonna just see a couple of characters? It would make sense to have a lighter book release around the same time as the FEC relaunch.  

    Like Valkia and Callis & Toll for this book with respective armies of renown?

  6. Here's hoping for FEC reveals and Dawnbringers 3. 

    Anyone have a guess as to whats going in Dawnbringers 3? I feel like the most set up in terms of lore would be Sylvaneth, Cities, Nurgle and Khorne. However not sure if Cities would get any new models that quick. Hard to tell.

    OH SNAP!!!!!! OH SNAP!!!!!

     

    Makes me wonder if every faction for 10ed will be getting several models since we for sure have some kroot. Wonder if new Age of Sigmar will up the new unit count for every faction?

    Getting hyped for the T'au release. Maybe that blade is an updated Aun'shi? Or maybe named Kroot character.

  8. So if Bonesplitterz or Spiderfang are on the chopping block it would make sense. 

    Looks like Ironjawz are moving into some Savage Orruk territory with the new Ragerz. In the lore it looks like Bonesplitterz are very rarely represented in major events and novels. (Correct me on that if I'm wrong)

    Spiderfang are a little more unique and are currently the only source of "Arachnid" faction. 

    Either way it's always bittersweet to see a (sub)faction go away. There are always people that identify with that faction and love their models. However that choice is usually made to work on something new

    First Book we got 4 harbinger for each GA and almost every harbinger point out a character.

    Destruction: Rabble-Rowza -> King Troggth.
    Choas: Harbinger of decay -> Ruin Queen.
    Death: Marrowscroll -> Summerking.
    Order: Grimhold Exile -> unknow.

    And second Book came with King Troggth as cover with a lot of rule for destruction.

    then we can expect one book for Ruin Queen, one book for Summerking,

    so there should be fifth book for unknow character from order GA.

    Wouldn't Kurnoth fit for Order? 

    I mean. I would love a big centerpiece "Magma Matron" for Fyreslayers but the rumors seem to point towards Kurnoth.

  10. Generaly GW uses the Thanksgiving holiday to drop a new "specialist" box set and this year it has to be Epic given the delay and all that. We should see battleforces around that time as well. I feel like the rest of this year is going to be absolutely crammed with stuff if they're trying to keep to schedule.

  11. Anyone have any speculation to the size of the Kurnothi release that is coming at some point? 
    I would assume since it'll be a pseudo sub-faction the Sylvaneth that we might see a Maw-Grunta esque size release wave?

    I would like to think we would get 
    -Kurnoth
    -Woodland Aelves dual-kit (similar to the character from Cursed City) I would suspect the design would be similar to archers and blade-dancers from ole WHFB
    -Beetle monster kit, no basis for this.. just hope
    -Elite animal-aelves kit (this could easily be a Warcry Warband too)
    -Hero on foot

    This is really off topic, and everyone here has probably read it, but just wanted to shout out how bloody amazing Godeater's Son has been. I saw a Reddit post stating Noah Van Nguyen is Age of Sigmar's Dan Abnett, and I couldn't agree more.

    I'm a few hours in through the audiobook, who Timothy Watson also makes for beautiful listening, and the world building is just phenomenal in my opinion. The history and cultures Aqshy has been given, I am absolutely loving this book. You really get a sense of how this portion of Aqshy has changed its inhabitants over the course of history, and how it's inhabitants have changed Aqshy. 

    And there's little mentions of Kurnothi, Hashut and even Djinns so far and even more mysterious sounding things.

    Definitely recommend this book if people haven't read it yet. Timothy Watson is a spectacular narrator for this one. 

    Upon reflection Godeater's Son has been my favorite AOS book to date. Van Nguyen really does a good job of making the world feel lived in. Most of the time when I read GW books I can feel the constraints of the authors to not add too many new things that they don't have models of or things that aren't already established in the lore. It doesn't feel like that's the case in Godeater's Son, while we probably won't see a majority of the things covered in the book on the table top, it does make for a better story.

    Well since people are speculating that StD might get some stuff with Dawnbringers, I might say maybe new Temple Guard for Seraphon? Probably not but can dream.

    I would love new temple guard or a new monster. 

    However I think it's more likely for some other factions to get stuff... my prediction for the 7 remaining

    1. FEC
    2. Nurgle
    3. Khorne
    4. Idoneth
    5. Ogors
    6. Soulblight (it's been a couple months since their last character foot hero... time for another. 
    7. Daughters
