Cool mini's, but what is it? A CoS knight?
Just now, Ejecutor said:I am so confused right now. Without reading about it, the AoS one seems to be a CoS one, but... with the S2D corvus warband touches? My bet is CoS (another mini to buy).
Alternative Arch-Knight from the Command Set.
"The counterpart from the Age of Sigmar is a little better armoured, but still retains an avian demeanour. This is the Steel Rook, an alternate Arch-Knight for the Freeguild Command Corps. They continue the animal theme of the Arch-Knights, adding a third, bird option to the bear or fish knights you can build from the main Corps kit. They’re even accompanied by an actual rook, just in case the feathered fashion statements were too subtle."

Warhammer Event Minis revealed. Fair to say AoS wins this one. Alternative Arch-Knight for CoS, all hail Morr(da)! Although I'm sure some Tzeentchian cultists will be eager to get their hands on this one.

Always happy to see more space dorfs but the questoris knight is a curious one. The kit’s only a decade old but it is one which has gone through, I think, 2-3 revisions to include additional sprues and options. I wonder if this could be an attempt to rationalise it, load up the sprues more tightly to accommodate all the stuff and maybe include some of the technical gains developed through the other more recent knights
If it's not a revision, I would assume it's the Mechanicum Knight Styrix/Magaera since those are still in resin.

And it's Dawnbringers IV and Flesh-Eater Courts (inc. Ushoran)!
QuoteWith Ushoran on his way, next week you can look forward to articles on painting this mouldering monarch and his attendants, as well as miniature reveals on Monday and Thursday, more coverage of the Dawnbringer Crusades, and the next Balance Dataslate for Warhammer 40,000.

Another Dawnbringer Chronicle, this time, Skaven.
QuoteWarlock Engineer Katchrikk embarks on a mission of revenge against his arch-rival Queelum in this week’s Dawnbringer Chronicles, but the daemons of the Horned Rat have a better use in mind for two ambitious and capable Warlocks…
Maybe a heavily armoured Warlock model will be coming with Dawnbringers?
"Then a thud echoed. Katchrikk’s glee choked. Another heavy impact saw the smoke ripple. A hulking shape stomped into view at the lip of the spire’s savaged gash – a figure entombed in a walking, gun-studded coffin of green-tinged metal.
"A keening, whirring din rang out. Ignoring Zzzit’s scream, Katchrikk raced to arm the spare warhead, as the generator mounted to Queelum’s armour roared – providing him the strength needed for the other Warlock to heft a ratling gun single-handedly, its barrels whirring and keening to life."

Yeah, it just reads like another "My dad works for Games Workshop and says TOW is rushed, the end is nigh!" piece of bait like we've been getting since Day 1 of it being announced.

Are we likely to get a TOW app?
(Or would that mean people wouldn't have to buy the book?)
Horus Heresy didn't get one, so I wouldn't count on it.
There is an unofficial army builder that's already quite decent.

Are allies a thing in the old world? And if so are my freeguild/empire crossbowmen (formally from my Living City) likely to be allowed in a Dwarf army?
They are. The numbers you can take depends on the army list.
Dwarfs can have 25% of their army be from a single ally, which are Empire, Bretonnia (Uneasy) and High E*ves (Suspicious).

Does the name change imply Rob is not going to be an honest wargamer from now on?

Any info on when the legacy army pdfs are going to be released?
I would guess Monday, since WarCom usually only drops PDFs on weekdays and they seem to have Monday as the TOW day (as opposed to Thursday for Heresy).
We know influencers have them already, so I can't imagine we'll be waiting long now the game is officially out.

It's funny that two weeks after pretty much everything plastic and resin on the webstore selling out, we're already back to "TOW will flop" talk.
Surprised we've not circled all the way back around to "TOW won't even be on squares!" while we're at it.

Where is the legacy armies PDF?
Probably sometime in the next week. Technically the game only launched today and they tend to publish PDF stuff during the weekday.

So the prediction they'd pull an Uno Reversal after the Dwarf dice and revealed Orcs & Goblins came true.
Kind of surprised they're not putting out a big centrepiece model, which I'm fairly sure they said was happening for all the armies? Or I could be misremembering hearsay as WarCom fact. This probably does quash the Empire vs O&G Summer rumour then.
While the Battalion isn't flashy, having a cheaper jumping off point than the £150/£175 boxes does make some sense, even if the savings won't be quite as good. It certainly makes the buy-in easier for people who are on the fence.

Not sure if it's been said already, but one thing I actually quite like about the Riverblades is their less armoured grunts wearing those rather simple shirts and suspenders, which rather sells them as 'fishermen'.
That's the nicest thing I'll say about an E*f model though.

As somebody who woke up and bleary-eyed checked their phone for the Preview roundup, when I saw the thumbnail for Krethusa I thought, for one mad moment, "wow they're really putting out a new Grombrindal model? Look at the length of that beard!"
Then my eyes properly focused.

For all the chorfs fans around here:
Interesting that the 'Warhammer Legends' was the original idea to reboot Fantasy.
Shame we never saw Battle For Black Fire Pass before AoS.
