oak leaf scale armour ? Looks like an armoured wight.. really interested to see if these turn out to be an army, a war band or a death themed quest game [unlikely as there would be more hints of different races for the adventurers].

Left hand looks to be metallic - but could be actual scales?

That definitely looks like the Daedric armor that 7th Ed VC stuff sported...

Could be cavalry. Cloak covering the rider’s legs, scale on the horse’s rear leg.

Ah, great, now I'm hoping for plastic Blood Knights.

Modern Chaos Knights pretty pls?

The armour/cloth combination is pretty similar to the one on the recent Chaos Knights, but the latter have chain mail, not this rather distinct scale (?) armour ... I'd bet on some kind of Death cavalry, too. https://www.games-workshop.com/de-DE/Start-Collecting-Slaves-To-Darkness-2019

Worth noting that one of the Varanguard sculpts has that style of scale armour barding, albeit not a 100% exact match. Could well be Chaos Knights getting a proper kit, or just something Chaos in general, but Death feels more likely from what else we've seen

"For Warhammer Age of Sigmar fans, you’ll see the next new battletome (and a bunch of incredible minis) drop in February. Trust us, this one’s a doozy – we’ll even give you a sneak peek on Christmas day!"

The 2021 article https://www.warhammer-community.com/2020/12/23/an-update-on-warhammer-releases-in-2021/ makes me wonder if the vampirey looking rumours from the advent will be said army with battletome.

Elf strangling a twig.

Racist elf strangling a Branch Squig

Life wizard. Probably human.

I'll show ye to trick me, twiggy!

Could also be someone up a tree?

Some notdruid?

A nurglelf

Probably a necromancer or a wizard for whatever that tree-zombie faction is

This is my guess also, doesn't look dainty enough to be a GW elf in my opinion.

Twig mimic pretending to be oppressed

Solved.

I do recall that the "Staff of Arboreonecromancy" was an artifact back in WHFB. It let you zombify woods terrain and attack people with undead trees.

So in other words...

Battletome: Shambleflesh Arboreonecromancers confirmed!

To no-one's suprise, not a single bloody thing from The Advent Calendar was previewed. Thanks Geedubs

Isn't there another preview on New Years Day?

So they're porting HALO weapons and Daedric Daggers from Skyrim in? Might as well at this point...

Well HALO didn't invent the twin-bladed katar and a daedric dagger doesn't look like that, so no.

Playful sarcasm, I figured that was evident.
