I like that you can choose whether you roll for the Command trait or not; it allows you to design a character and give them fluffy rules, or to randomly roll when both players are happy to do it.

The inclusion of Bretonians in the leaks gives me hope that my Tomb Kings are usable in a pitched battle setup.

Fingers crossed.

**Bottle**

Looks like they forgot the points value for Dwarf Miners?

At a glance, I see a ton of good, though I suspect the battleline requirement will quickly get min-maxed, with players figuring out the cheapest way to pay that tax, per Grand Alliance.

As expected org charts screw me. Even my dark elves where I have based around 1 wound models have no battleline, which would force me to buy/make/paint models I just don't want to. I had half a mind to get the Saurus guard if I revisited them, so that might be doable, but I have no wish to do 30 ghouls to go with my other flesh eaters, nor more dark elves to go with my drow, and combining smaller groups of minis into armies so you don't have to keep collecting largely the same stuff makes it even harder in some cases. I am hoping that any battalion would be legal irrespective of org requirements so we can collect battalions and play them in any game (point limit allowing).

So Dwarf Miners are... free?

And should have guessed that Ironbreakers wouldn't be Battleline. My new army I was making currently amounts to

Unforged
Warden King
Runelord
2 units of 5 Ironbreakers (with standards, musicians, and champions)
2 units of 5 Irondrakes (with torpedoes)

Guess I'll need to grab a box or 2 of Longbeards to make it "legit", if I want to play with these rules.

(I do have a much larger Dwarven army, but for AoS I'm trying to use only 8th edition style Dwarfs, as I don't like the look of my warriors, thunderers, and cannon crew alongside them)

This is exactly why I didn't want org charts. People like you get screwed to reign in TFG, when the right course of action is simply to not play TFG. I will definitely try to get my group to agree to ignoring the org charts.

SO

GOOD

**ImAGeek**

Oh my god. Amazing.

**angelofvengeance**

Alarielle is stunning!

**motski**

Well I gotta hand it to Geedubs, they managed to made a beetle look kinda badass.

**angelofvengeance**

Does Alarielle have the Spear of Kurnous or is it just a nod to the old WE stuff?

**OrlandotheTechnicoloured**

Looking great

and that Hamadreth may well make a great alternate 40K Hellbrute

I dunno. He looks awfully big for a dreadnought lol.

**AesSedai**

Wow...color me impressed!

**lord_blackfang**

Yeah. Okay. Those are awesome.

**Skullhammer**

Oh yess giant bugs..goning to get that.

Any idea on release date?

**NAVARRO**

Yes gotta love AoS new stuff!

That beetle is going to be mine! All mine!

**Mr Morden**

Need to see prices, but looking good.

**streetsamurai**

Looks good, but need better pics to be sure. Wonder if there will be some multi-kits.

Automatically Appended Next Post:
That's settle it, they are definitvely going back to a monthly release rate

Automatically Appended Next Post:
wonder if this is going to be the whole release, cause it is weird that there is no clampack character

**KiloFiX**

Anyone know if the required role - e.g. Battleline 2+ must be chosen from your specific Faction or chosen from any across your Grand Alliance?

**jonolikespie**

Is that an elf piloting a tree mecha?

It looks to be an evolved form of Drycha Branchwraith.

**Hanskrampf**

Looks good so far. The Hamadreth looks weird though, to much like a tree-dreadnaught.

**highlord tamburlaine**

Thanks a lot GW.

Why you going to make me want pointy ears?

So lame.

LAME.

If I say it enough times I will believe it and not spend any money on them.

**TheWanderer**

So the Part-Elf Part-Tree hybrids are finally here!

So we have elf, we have half-elf half-tree are we still going to get full tree?

You mean like the Kurnous hunters and Treemen?

Wow, that sentence almost makes me want to play elfs.

Almost.

Behold, the General's Handbook!
Probably the most anticipated Warhammer Age of Sigmar book to date, certainly for gamers, this 169*-page tome will soon be providing you with three new ways to play battles in the Mortal Realms.
We’ve just got our first samples in, and we we’re so excited that we wanted to share a few things about the book with you.
This book really is packed with stuff – just take a look at the contents page to get an idea of just how much gaming goodness is in there. We’ll have more on the detail soon, including when you can get your hands on the book, but for now, please, just take a moment to soak it all in, and then begin your wild internet speculation… go!
* Usually books pages are in multiples of 4, for obvious reasons, but there was so much stuff in this that we had to use the inside back cover!

**thenoobbomb**

Alarielle looks ace.

**Mymearan**

So what are we thinking on prices? Some guesses:

Alarielle - same as Archaon (£100) or same as a Stardrake (£85)? My guess is the former, she looks huge.

Tree-Revenants - Stormcast pricing per 5 (£30-35)?

Hamadreth - Same as a Helbrute (£33)? Or is it bigger than that?

Hunters - Same as Space Marine Centurions (£47.5)?
