Well, am a bitsy worried about Medusae being mages. Love their shooting attack, the're more or less my most feared unit at my local GW store. let's hope they mantain some sort of shooting attack...

The new ruins probably follow the same pattern as the STC RYZA RUIN where you only get the sprue with the full wall from the box with the cardboard mat. They cerainly look that way from the box.

Between Bloodwrack Medusae, Hag Queens, Slaughter Queens and Morathi herself, your Daughters of Khaine heroes won’t just be terrors in close combat but invaluable support units with these new spells and prayers on hand!

That new unit, or just new name of the two dagger girl from blood spa wagon?

Where are people seeing that the statue of
Khaine is a hq or even a thing on its own without the shrine?

You can even field the Khainite statue that usually stands atop the Shrine as a separate unit, representing an iron Avatar of Khaine.

Given the pictures in the article, that's probably the two blood priestess in the Blood coven kit (in the shrine kit)..

Lol oh wow, I totally glazed over that.
Very cool and exciting.. also considering it was mentioned in the end times that the DE had them.. seemed weird they had no TT rep! Lookin forward to see the stats

I assume Hag Queen is the one with cup, but Slaughter Queen is interesting. Neither of the priestesses has the mask Sisters of Slaughter wear, yet going by name it's supposed to be a super-Sister of Slaughter. Maybe it's kitbash of SoS mask/priestess, like several of recent 40K units?

And looking at the WD preview its not just a faction specific terrain piece. Its an actual mobile unit. I know GW want to get as much out of the Shrine kit as possible, but they have missed a chance for a AoS/40k cross over kit there

There's every possibility that it requires nearby units to move though.

Ironweld Arsenal stuff has Movement values but they require nearby crew.

Pre-order up on NZ site.

Did Witch Elf get a price cut, look like they have similar price to other 40US$ kit. on NZ store? Or maybe they always had that price on NZ.

I made sure to check the prices earlier in the week. Dark Riders/Doomfire Warlocks and Sisters of Slaughter/Witch Aelves have had no price changes.

I'm about 90% sure that Witch Elves came in boxes of 5.
I don't know why I kept thinking they were boxes of 5. I should have known better. They were 10 but $60 USD.

I'm a bit bummed on Doomfires/Dark Riders not getting packed into boxes of 10 personally.

You should go with the 10% They were $60 for 10 models earlier this week.

I did a strikethrough, damnit!

I really wish I could remember why I kept thinking that. It has to be something stupid, like I was saying it would have been smarter to break them into boxes of 5 for the Sisters of Slaughter or something 'back in the day'.

Possibly because there are only 5 unique poses repeated.

I was really hoping for at least a small drop in the price for the Witch Aelves, something like $50 for 10 models. At least it wasn't a price increase like Tzeentch had...

I'm kind of interested as to why there are Dark Riders in one of the 'action shots' for the Warscroll Cards and why it looks like they're fighting alongside the DoK stuff.

Dark Riders aren't listed in the DoK stuff...


Image in question.

Dunno. NZ website has a bunch of Calvary on the preorder section too.

They have one box that's a double build.

Doomfire Warlocks have been in the Daughters of Khaine section of Order since the Grand Alliance book. Dark Riders are part of a two unit faction called the "Shadowblades"(It's them and the Assassins).

Just kinda puzzled by them showing the Dark Riders instead of Doomfires.

Apologies if posted before, but the rules of the Queen: https://www.games-workshop.com/resources/PDF/AoS_Warscrolls//aos-warscroll-morathi-high-oracle-of-Khaine-en.pdf


And her hissy form: https://www.games-workshop.com/resources/PDF/AoS_Warscrolls//aos-warscroll-morathi-the-shadow-queen-en.pdf

Dark Riders don't have an updated warscroll with their pre-order giving them the DAUGHTERS OF KHAINE keyword so ...

I wonder if it's just a mistake and they thought they pulled Doomfires out for a game.

Very interesting rules. She is much less powerful than people thought. Wounds not only carry over but are doubled. So if she loses all six wounds as the Oracle she is just dead. She does not transform.

Well, I would imagine that the Shadowblades will be allies for the DoK, so maybe that's why? I do like how Morathi's transformation is handled. Damage taken in mortal form will carry over proportionally, so if she took 3 wounds in mortal form, she'll start at 6 wounds in demigod form.

On a side note, I hope we get WHQ rules for the Haq Queen and Slaughter Queen, too!

Seems kinda harsh, to me. Now I see why people would be tempted to change her right away.

Considering she can't lose more than 3 wounds per turn (except by transformation), it seems like a good way to keep her power level in line. I also notice that Witch Aelves and Sisters of Slaughter now have a 6+ save, and Witch Aelves can take a hornblower and shields now. I don't remember them having that option beforehand.

Well, you're in luck, they have been dropped in price by 1/3. They're the same price as an Ironjaw Megaboss now, which means they'll be $40 in the US (down from $60).

Hoping this is accurate. If not, I'll have to build the army through Blood Covens
