[Warcry is Killteam/Mordheim... ?]

I really hope that it is 100% over the top Chaos stuff!

[The Rumour Thread]

Wow, the last kid I'd want changed is the current night goblin kit.

Actually, I'd love them to re-size the multi-part set from late 5th (updated with shared skeleton/skaven  plastic command sprue) to about 80 percent and re-release that Brilliant fun they were, but too big!

Doom Divers are such a brilliantly "Warhammer" image, I'd be surprised if we didn't see them back.

An update, perhaps fired from grot flying ships would be awesome

Though I suppose it is more due to the brand new kit that came out during the ET, and that certainly was not going to be discontinued... so shove it in the fluff somehow! This could be a solid basis to get back Vlad, Isabella, Krell, etc...

That's my hope for Thanquol, anyway

Is the salary in your country for an avarge citizent around 700$?

Hi Karol. Nope, not at all. I still don't see what it has to do with what I said, though. Doesn't make my lackluster dark elf army any different (and I didn't say how much it cost...)

To be honest, if money were such an issue, the last miniatures game I'd play, certainly competitively, would be something from GW. This is where I'd think a more narrative approach, buying cheaper starter set models or second hand models and just playing any old way would suit better than a competitive environment.

When I couldn't justify buying GW prices, I've been happy with games with free rules and 1/72 scale models. I'm happy to accept that your local group (or yourself!) may feel differently.

I've made armies for next to nothing, but yeah, they would be utterly useless in a tournament! Or laughed at for being mostly 4th edition mono-pose plastic or Reaper Bones.

This works only if the avarge income of the avarge local player is high enough to stomach accidenly buying a bad unit or army.

25 years of mucking about with mates and Warhammer (some times with little money and second-hand models, others able to buy whatever looks cool) and I don't think I've ever considered a unit, let alone army, "bad". I have a Dark Elf army that never once won a game. It just isn't an issue for some groups.

[Warhammer Legends]

Karol, all I can say is that your experiences with toy soldiers are the exact opposite from mine. Not a single thing rings true for me!

On Legends (and on topic!), It just a very little effort/commitment set of profiles to go alongside a limited re-release. If it doesn't interest people, they can so easily not use them.

As to whether units are dropped from Matched thing, wait for the new handbook?

[Warhammer Legends]

Even if this release does brilliantly, you can't really tell if it's anything to do with the DE rules they released, or even anything really to do with live of WHFB.

I might just buy the manflayers just because I like the models, and didn't get around to buying them the first time.

I've seen plenty of people who stopped playing long before 8th edition wanting to buy them. Same with the 40k made to order.

I still don't understand why GW didn't republish, at the launch of AOS, or better, at the GHB 2016 release, a reworked version of their old WD articles about "no points" games, from Jervis Johnson and Nigel Stillman for example. It would have shown the possibilies of non point games, and the philosophy of such games, just like they did with the 40k 8th Designer FAQ. 

Yep. AoS really needed a "designer's notes" from the start. In white dwarf, on the site, the rules download and the first campaign book. You can't release a game with no points, and not even give some context (I've read plenty of independent games that explained their game. Swashbuckling game Donnybrooke for example has very rough points, but says anyone choosing only the "best" options is playing the wrong game).

It would have saved me pondering for a year what was going on...

I wonder if some brets and TKs will resurface for a final last chance to buy (and sell out in ten minutes flat!)?

Can't sell out... "Made to order"

I think a tomb kings release could be disappointing, we haven't seen a plastic kit go back into production.

Thinking that a good colour scheme might give more of the cthulhu vibe, maybe some slimy tentacle hair. Make the skin more fish-sea-like. 

Anyone knows what's next. I feel like it should be Night gobbos. My local GW suspiciously painting up a night gobbo army. 

Oh for heaven's sake... I meant I'm happy it WASN'T Cthulhu Aelves! Stupid fingers and stupid phone!

I hated the OMG Cthulhu!!! Facebook comments and I'm thrilled it isn't how it turned out.

[The Rumour Thread]

Such a carry on about the turtle (more elsewhere, not here).

I'm just thrilled it wasn't 100% Cthulhu Aelves! How dull that would have been.

I'm not sure if I'll end up with an army of these guys, or just a unit or so for mixed order, but I'm happy to see something different. That, and all too clever Teclis making a mistake

Thanquol was always alive and in the mortal realms from the beginning. 

What exactly has been said about Thanquol in AoS, if you don't mind me asking? Where to read it?
