    “I am expecting Skaven later this year, and as far as I know there will be “some” repacks but also plenty of nasty new additions (I seem to recall it’s much more of a Skyre type affair this time around with new technologies/weapons etc.) but I wouldn’t be surprised to see some new plague monk type things. These currently seem to be the favoured skaven subfactions for GW, hopefully the new book will clarify what Skaven are like in the new setting and their backstory from leaving the old world and what they’ve done since arrival etc.”

    I suspect that we'll see a Nurgle combined tome later this year which rolls Clan Pestilens into a three-part Children of Nurgle force: Mortals, Daemons, and Clan Pestilens.  The plague priests will likely get Nurgle Prayers.  This fits right in line with their current design trajectory and remakes one of those prior tomes.  

    I would not expect any beastmen with this tome, or any other models in general.

    They cannot make a Nurgle battletome without at the very least putting out a new Great Unclean One.

    Khorne has one, Tzeentch just got one. Slaanesh is taking a nap, so they can wait. But Nurgle really really need a new Greater Daemon kit, plus they could bring out Ku'gath again as a special GUO :-)

  3. That doesn't really look like it's supposed to be underground..?

    Or is it a big cavern on the bottom and sides of a tower on the top part?

     

    That there is a Stormcast on the front, doesn't really bother me. It's like there is a Marine in most 40k stuff. Who cares. :-)

  4. Your plans sounds good :-)

     

    In terms of a 2vs1 Battleplan, I guess the most obvious one would be an Ambush - The two weaker warbands have conspired to take the leading warband and divide the loot between them. So one weak warband draws out the strong warband, knowing that the other weak warband are waiting in cover ready to charge from cover and attack the strong warband in the back.

    Would be interesting if it allowed for either of the weak warbands to switch side or maybe simply run away and leave the other to its doom, if they could see the battle going against them.

  5. It's incredible how fast some people get used to getting deals from GW with huge savings - Only months back a deal like this would have been absolutely awesome :-)

    Personally I think it's cool with bigger army deals with all the new armies (except the poor Fyreslayers). I am considering picking one up myself.

    'Entire back catalogue'. OMG - if I can get my hands on other Lichemaster or Mcdeath figures I will officially wet my pants.

    I still cannot believe it'll be the entire back catalogue - It is absolutely huuge range of minis, they'll have to be able to cast on demand.

    I hope it'll actually turn out to be true, but I'll have to see it to believe it :-)

    just had my local games workshop confirm made to order items. 

    I still cannot believe it to be true - It would be absolutely crazy (good!) if GW opened up to order from their entire back catalog. If it should turn out to be true, it'll be very interesting to see how old stuff you can order.

    This would be the best thing next to reopening their old bits service from the mailorder trolls!
