... The art is just to illustrate the post... Are you for real guys ? You don't know who Atia is ? You didn't used to browse War of Sigmar back in the days ? She was a very active and reliable rumormonger at AOS start, mostly 2015-2016-2017 IIRC. Way better than Hastings in the post Warseer era. She stopped quite abruptly, and Bob took over the posting on WoS. She sometimes (very rarely) comes back to post small rumors in the comments. The fact she took the time to make a whole post to say something is probably a good indication it's "huge".

Lady Atia Rumour !!! https://war-of-sigmar.herokuapp.com/bloggings/4966 Slaanesh Will Be BACK

GLORIOUS ! Thank you. We'll need to archive this thread for the posterity, too.

Very interesting !!! "Fall of Anvilgard" ??? "Shadow Rising" ??? BE LAKOR TEASING ? BTW I love how the main AOS narrative seem to takes inspirations from both the Soulbound RPG and Warcry : Catacombs !

Indeed, I love how Broken Realm : Morathi seems to fit with the Soulbound and the Warcry : Catacombes Narratives ❤️

New, AOSified Zombies kit for the rumored and hypothetical Soulblight release ?

Me too. It's the Soulbound Corebook, the part about Ulgu.

Yes and actually the new background look to be more meaningful than what we got in PA. BTW that excellent trailer really had a Game Of Thrones-y vibe to it, right A bit like if Morathi was Cersei Lannister about to blow up the temple.

GREAT NEWS ! - The Clobbering short story IMO it confirms the Siege of Excelsis story arc will be the start of AOS 3rd edition. All books and articles about Destructions have recently shown a concentration of power currently taking place in Ghur. Looking forward to the next installment in two weeks then ! - Broken Realm : Morathi Really pleased with the advancing narrative, the variety of factions included and the new rules ! Potential bundles are cool too. For now it's a really close to Psychic Awakening in terms of releases, because we have the confirmation this book will come with 2 new models in a boxed set, and maybe bundles. P.-S. ; @michu from the Soulbound RPG, Mishåvn is apparently a Free City in Ulgu (a collections of boats linked together that can moves across the Penumbral Sea - a bit like the floating market of Bataar but litteraly floating this time ) I hope that means... A MAP OF ULGU WILL BE INCLUDED ❤️

It's dead easy...

In regard to the excellent fluff in the SoB BT, I love how they explain that the regions around Excelsis (thx @xking for the pictures) is relatively stable in regards to other predatory continents, because Thondia is an "apex predator", so isn't easily disturbed !

NP, always a pleasure to help !

@Emmetation My group and I won't buy the physical Soulbound Core Book if you didn't corrected at least the paragraph p. 201 of the .pdf about Khorne and the Aglroaxi - can we have a confirmation please ? That paragraph just don't mean anything in English as it is right now. (For references : my posts p. 21 of this thread).

Yeah... With maybe the exception of a Blood Bowl guy, who was already teased online around here. But if you look at the Direchasm box art already previewed you can guess every models teased this week.

Yeah, Shu'gohl. The Amber steps aren't on the map alas. And no that forest isn't there, but Beastgrave and the Gnarlwood (from AOS day1) are !

A NEW MAP !!! Love it. Mentions of Fangathrak, Ymnog, Mawpaths, Moudlerpit, and EXCELSIS itself ! It just lacks the crawling city of Slugol

Hi @Emmetation ! Thanks for the news ! Did you get around the few oddities I pointed out p. 21 of this thread ? Mainly regarding "missing lore" in the original PDF, p. 201 (also a few "lore clarifications" pp. 164 and 338) ? Thank you

Eshin Assassin from Ulgu ?

There is no way the Coast of Tusks isn't on the map. Also we still have the story arc about Excelsis and Gordrakk (and unreleased artworks of the city itself) so there is hope !

White Dwarf 456 (September 2020), p. 11. Phil Kelly's article about drawing maps is mostly about Hysh, but there is a never seen before mini part of the "Ghur Hinterlands" map.

In the new white dwarf there is apparently a glimpse of map of Ghur ! ❤️

@LuminethMagethank you for the feedback ! My friend told me about a Fox-like elemental for the Wind Temple ?! Pretty cool if true. I think the map of Ymettrica (I've seen it on YouTube review IIRC) wasn't shown on Warhammer Community, only the maps and artworks of Hysh (and Ulgu) : https://www.warhammer-community.com/2020/06/18/lumineth-realm-lords-the-loregw-homepage-post-1/ https://www.warhammer-community.com/2020/04/08/lumineth-realm-lords-exploring-hyshgw-homepage-post-1/ Maybe they'll left the wider social structure etc. explanation for the Realm-Lord novel or the Soulbound RPG ? There will be Lumineth Archetypes in the next SB expansion.

Looking forward to reading the Lumineth lore ! Friends who got the box told me it was really good, with history of Hysh and as much as 3 pages of maps (you know I love AOS maps as much as KingBrodd loves Gargantuan things).

For the AOS 3rd ed. Starter set that is 100% coming between now and Summer 2021 (trust me ) I could see : - Devoted Of Sigmar (Order of Azyr, Art-deco heavy armored Warrior priests, Free cities update, etc., including some redesigned Stormcasts units !) vs Orruk Ironjawz - Siege of Excelsis story arc - Devoted Of Sigmar (same as above) vs Shadow Elves (with "beginner-friendly designs" like @HollowHills said), as a conclusion to the Broken Realms story arc and if the Grand Alliances rules are removed (after some kind of Order civil war started by Morathi, Teclis and Alarielle in Broken Realm), to be replaced by the Allies Matrix from the GHB 2020.

Ermm, it really isn't . The hand holding the Plaguebearer skull is probably an Horror of Tzeentcht ones, as it's spindly, deformed and of a strange color. The axe head, the crow holding key and the 2 hands holding sword are indeed probably Soulblight Vampires. Going by the current models and recent artworks, Vampires are more medieval and won't have guns. Today's RE looks like it wears a glove or is dark skinned. It's probably a Witch hunter (or an Admech / inquisitor / Rogue trader model for 40k). Going by Hastings comments on War of Sigmar, Idoneth Deepkin will have the Crab Claw, the "punch" dagger with a jewel and the "normal" dagger (penultimate row). We know at least 5 RE (the 3 pics for the Lord of Pain, 1 for the Melusai Ironscale, the Howl for the Lumineth WHU band and the hair for Lilith teased for 40k recently). There are 2 techy ones that are 40k, 2 for Orks and at least 4 that are for Nurgle (probably including a Nurgling).
