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).

Square based got you covered
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.

Yeah they could flip it and show O&G just to mess with us!
My wallet is a bit nervous about this weekend...😂
I could see it. Especially when they largely led with Bretonnia the first time around and may want to hype up a 'Evil' army more so this time. I am probably reading way too much into that, mind.
Watch it turn out to be Wood Elves or something.

They say the new models are metal though, I remember metal models being a hell to build back when I had them in 2006 (the death guard daemon prince's arm kept falling off)
are the metal sculpts better to wok with these days?
Infantry-sized models are generally fine. Some of the more infamous and/or larger ones, like Abaddon and the Daemon Prince you mentioned, may need pinning, but for the majority just super glue and a bit of patience holding it into place worked out alright for me.

Also the next old world army is going to get revealed at the launch event this weekend. My money's on the dwarves.
The cat is out of the bag now with the dice, so that would be my guess too. Especially if they're only revealing the one.

They also implied some other models - like the below Games Day Exalted Champion - may be coming back too.
We'll also be finding out what the next returning army is this weekend.
QuoteWe’ve also got some further exciting reveals this week. Those lucky enough to attend the Warhammer: The Old World launch event at Warhammer World in Nottingham this weekend will get the first look at the next army due for release! And for those who can’t make it to Nottingham, we’ll have the details here on Warhammer Community.

The unreleased Bretonnian Lord On Foot coming to MTO.
The article also mentions "he's far from the only rarity to return," conspicuously below the Games Day 2009 Exalted Hero.

Well thats a bit dissapointing. I wonder when Dawnbringers is coming then?
The Great Slaughter is slated to be up for pre-order 'in January' so that's probably the next two weeks sorted, but since Legions Imperialis is a Specialist Game they might sneak Dawnbringers IV alongside anyway?

Just 40k and Titanicus next week, unless you want the pin merch anyway.
QuoteOn Warhammer Community, we have a reveal for the Old World which will make fans of a certain vintage see stars, and lots of Dark Angels coverage. Don’t forget to join us at the end of the week for the Las Vegas Open reveals.

Dawnbringers "The Story So Far" recap.
Announcement on Sunday for next Saturday Pre-Order seems likely? Can't remember if our resident dates expert confirmed it or not.

Another Dawnbringer Chronicle, this time, Skaven.
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."
