- Darkoath will be undivided barbarians.
- Demons will probably will be their own book with a new line of undivided demons as well as including all 4 god specific demon kin
- all 4 Godds get thier own mixe (mortals and demons) book
- slaves to darkness should evolve to an overarching battletome for the GA excluding skaven.
- Beastmen probably has all beasts, with the option to expand certain subfactions
- and everchosen might evolve in what was classicly known as Warriors of chaos, undivided and marked, hopefully with some new models.

Nova might bringus: Beastmen, Nighgoblins for AoS; Orks and with much luck Genestealers for 40k; Nightvault with the new starter box, teams as mentioned above either as content of the box or first wave (personaly I think we will see one or two ETB sets from nighhaunts and SCE translated to WU, Nightvault); next necromunda gang; FW stuff; Titan weapons for AT; LotR previews. Nova could be massiv!

Well GW leaked it themselves with a massive photo of a huge bull spell.
Also don't forget the VAST majority of GW's fanbase isn't online nor even using the Facebook pages. So even leaks are not a huge worry for them that would force them to advance the release schedule. Plus the way they have to produce and work their own schedule chances are a few leaks online is not enough to make them change it at all. Even if we know stuff is coming out well in advance its unlikely to make GW push other things out of the way to allow another thing to come in earlier.
It's not the release order that was forced to change through leaks but the reveal. With the endless spell shown it's more likly they wanted to build some mystery and hype for Wednesday rather than have a full reveal the following day.

I'd be surprised if they drop a second army like Grots down when they've just announced the Chaos Beastmen. I'd wager they will go out first then we might hear of other factions getting attention. If there is a new faction reveal then it might well be the long hoped for big ORK content to come (if there is any beyond their new awesome cars)
I wouldn't say, they announced Beasts - it simply leaked too early and forced GWs hand. What might have been planed, is a reaveal at Nova together with ofter AoS stuff - similar how 40k got 3 'dexes announced repeatedly during the last year, which were a combination of updated codices and new or expended versions.

Here we go.... first of many!
For the comment above, yes all underworld stuff is ETB, but not all moonclan stuff coming will be ETB
Also here’s a bone for some... see how similar the spore stuff is on the club to the rumour engine pic....Similar but not the same!
An goes for his arm pits

Put the Keeper of Secrets up alongside this and you'd see they are similar too... It's a bull head.
Dude, it's the same cad file with just some reworking of the horns

Darkoath might have some beastman type units, just as Tzeentch has Tzaangor. It doesn't require to them being merged together.
This. Most logical release would be a beastmen book, combining all beastial chaos folks. And than a separate darkoath book, for barbarians. Both might use units of one another, similar to the old chaos books in 5th Ed WhFB, but function as seperate factions

Would it have been such a huge problem for GW to remove the shoting option from the huskard, something all other players seem to hate, and turn them in to a priest or wizard?
Because he has no model options to represent it. No model no rules - main rule for GW after the chapter house case. Get allies if you want wizards* for now, BCR might get some down the line.
* ogers even have thier own with firebellies, no need for greenskins! -

Out of interest, blueshirtman, what do you play?
The worst of all armies: Beast Claw Riders - to paraphrase.
As others, he is one of those gamers, that thinks he is entitled to get his army treated imminently and exclusively, and that it HAS to be amongst the easy to play top 3 ones.But please could we move on from the "AoS got nothing, why does GW ****** us over and over again"! AoS had a strong year so far, and there is still stuff to come. 40k needs and deserves some attention as well, and so do Specialised games. I agree that a larger preview would have been nice, but remember there is another show and seminar coming in less than 2 weeks - and we hat many spills before hand. Both bigger Boxed games, Speed freaks and Rough trader, where spoilered before the event, lowering thier impact - and stealing the thunder of the follow-ups from both boxes. It really seams as if the exchanged Nova's and WHF EU's presentations. Much of the stuff shown is more fitting for a generell game expo than an in house event. Seams like leaks forced their hands one to many times.

Well non destruction stuff, when your a destruction player isn't really helping much. In fact if people get more ways to play, there is always the chance, that suddenlllly your army gets hard countered. There is nothing good coming from other people geting stuff ever.
But as you said we still have tomorrow, who knows maybe there is going to be a whole AoS day.
There won't be any news tomorrow. If your lucky you can get unofficial glimpses, but don't get your hope up.

Wouldn't it just died if it was on fire or am I missing some joke?
Well here is to GW saying something about destruction tomorrow, otherwise the next few months look rather bleak.
Or they could say something at nova next week. Nevertheless, the next few months won't be bleak, with or without destruction. There are so many new toys coming, that there isn't enough time to handle a fraction of what is worth to get your hands on.

I highly dislike them since they‘re too delicate and elvish for vampire knights. There‘s nothing vampiric about them, not even the wing crests look vampiric.

Doesn't anyone remember blood dragons? A whole clan of bretonean knights turned vampires and drinking drahonblood?!

i see only 3 enchanted battletomes (Seraphones, Archaon and Fireslayers). I hope we will get updates for all factions like 40k got.
Archaon is still available in print version, but skaven and BCR are digital only as well. Interstingly, depending on wether I set the filters manually or search Battletome in generall, the digital versions are there or disapeared. Makes me wonder if either thers a bug or if they are right in the process of deleting....
P.S. Bonespliters are digital only, too.

GW deleted many old battletomes from site!
hm, intersting. But the digital versions are largely still available.

I'm thinking it may be one we haven't seen yet, or maybe an expansion for RT. It could even be new shadespire stuff for Nurgle.
From all we know, the whole context of the box has been shown in several pictures. An expansion would be sweet, as well as both factions flushed out as 40k armies, but right now it would be to early for all of these. GW probably will test the waters first before investing in an expending lineup, or even if they have allready planned it, it will come further down the line, allowing to milk the box as long as possible

It certainly would be cool if it was grots - maybe some fungus infected giant with an armpit full of nasties. That said, I think Nurgle mutated Rogue Trader is the most likely.
My tip for grots has to be a trolls armpit, those dudes are ... well, lets say the concept of a shower is completly alien to them.
Concerning RT, I think we are wrong, although it has strong recemblances. But chack the Pictures of the box once more, there is nothing direktly relating to the Gellerrot Muties, although the elements have some shared basic designe idears - in that they spot elements of decay and critters. -

It's not for the upcoming Rogue Trader set from GW? Doesn't that have a Nurgle infected mutants as one half of the set?
My thought, too. RT would fit, even though it is strange to have already revealed models in the engine.
P.S.: did a quick check on the shown RT pics. No match there, only similarities for the Gellerpox muntants

Adding in Monsters of Chaos, brayherds, warherds with slaves to darkness gives a huge line up. But we'll see
Well, I don't believe Darkoath to be a GA book, they are from what we know specific in a way that they are barbarians. I would say a GA Chaos book will be, fittingly, "Slaves to Darkness" uniting all subfactions in a way as Warriors/Beasts/demons of Chaos army books did during 6th edition WHFB, where you where free to combine troops from all three books. Or even older, as in Realm of chaos: Slaves to Darkness*/Lost and the Damned. On the one hand I think a GA book that realy makes sence would bie a GA Chaos one, on the other I hope they hold it back for a while, first publishing Slaanesh, something skaven and beastmen/monsters and only than unifying all factions
*= ah haha, look at that ?

You shut your mouth! ??
Abaddon was my favorite sculpt for most of a decade!
as I said, he was good for some time (not a decade!) but aged terrible. he is, at least, outdated since a decade and very much due for an update.

Not sure what you've got against Abbadon, he's a beatifully detailed, well designed sculpt in the classic Jes Goodwin style that people were gushing over when he came out in 1996 - today he's just tiny, dated and undynamically posed when put next to a modern plastic character.
You basically answered your question yourself!
But the worst sculpt has to be the "modern" Minotaures - but let'S and this OT here and move it to pm if you are further interessted

There's nothing that wrong with the plastic Talisman dragon Imrik and Malekith's dragon are based on, it's the hideous metal heads, tails and hands(!) used to "upgrade" it, and Malekith himself standing out as the second worst special character sculpt GW have ever put out after Chaplin Lemartes (the first one).
Both kits were already grotesque when they came out in 6th edition, and it sucks that they were put front and centre of the photos in not one but two End Times books - alongside nice looking modern dragon kits no less!
Could they not have just killed both special characters off, or converted nicer looking models instead (or have just done with Imrik what they'd already done with Teclis and brought back his much nicer 4th ed Jes Goodwin mini instead of the revolting one that dropped with 6th)? ?
Both Imrik and Malekith could be build through newer dragon kits, but without the SC-branding. Which makes it even sadder, that the old models prevailed. But to be honest, not only the hands, heads and tails where atrocious. The whole body as well as posture doesn't make any sense or allow the beasts to be ridden. And those wings where tagged on every flying monster for nearly over a decade that was larger than a horse. To be fair, the more recent dragons from WHFB times weren't that much better!
Concerning the worst sculpts, I wouldn't be so quick. Remember Abbadon or the old 6th Ed. dark elf maticore. The 5th/6th Ed Greater Demons. I Would include 2nd Ed. Tyranids but those guys were actually had some quite catroonish qualities.

man, those old dragons aged bad. They were already outdated in the early 2000s, but the bring back some fond memories of gaming in the 90s.

in Age of Sigmar Discussions
Posted · Edited by Bloodmaster
Chaos in any form probably will only be teased, as a reaction on the leaks/speculation from sunday/early monday.
all in all, the seminar might still have room for some AoS faction(s) depending on whether they are only Tomes with Endless Spells or full-on army releases.
on undivided demons: Chatter has it, that a certain demon prince, first of his kind, is in works
