That Sorcerous Insight might be hard to cast, but it'll be a game changer when it happens. And I'll bet there'll be at least one Innate Swirl card in one of the upcoming warbands.

Nice gargoyle/stone golem creature on the Abasoth's unmaking card. I wonder if we'll ever see something similar in plastic one day.

Pretty sure that a couple of the unresolved Rumor Engine images are related to the upcoming Nightvault warbands :

May 1st : probably related to the troggoth warband (fungi releasing spores).

May 22nd : the blade looks a lot like the one the left-hand Darkoath is wielding. Also : a similar blade can be seen
as part of the Ensorcelled Armoury objective (below the orruk choppa, easier to see on a sprue picture).

May 29th : my 5 cents that this is vapour from the Kharadron's Aether-Khemist 's atmospheric anatomiser.

AoS warscrolls are up.

Well, those are terrible and uninspired hodgepodges of units. Looks like the Nighthaunt warband is the only one that's not hot garbage.

NZ preorders are up.

I'm fully in love with the Night Goblin models. Even the Fanatic looks like he might be salvageable. I hadn't even noticed but one of the archers has fletched his arrows with shrooms, brilliant.

And Drizgit’s brand is visible on both squigs! They’re great.

Good lord those goblins are YELLOW.

The yellow is making my eyes bleed, gonna need to spray them real good so none of that is showing in the crevices.

Oh you mean the sprue color, I was trying to figure out if my screen colors were off or something

After seeing the 360's I've actually changed my mind from the goblins to the Tzeentch. I feel like that's pure Heresy, but the poses are really nice. Navia, the female one, looks amazing

Yeah, I really hate these coloured plastics. Useless and annoying

They couldn't even be bothered to get the rules right. Both Kairic Acolyte models have shields, yet the warscroll states that only Turosh has one.

I like the Tzeench Wizard, but the unit is meh.

Dunno. For NooBs (And Underworlds is a game aiming to recruit outside the usual AoS and 40k fan base), it's an easy visual way to spot who's models are who's. No different to Black and White in Chess really. And if you're painting them, makes not a jot of difference.

Me, I'm amused the Nighthaunt dudes are Rotting Flesh!

Would have been cool to have them in transparent or just the basic translucent of virgin polystyrene…

Has anyone heard anything about the missing dice and sleeves? Like, will they be back, or are they gone for good?

Got all of the extra packs of minis for Shadespire, still waiting on the main game to show up. Never thought I would say it but I really like the snap together minis.. they stick together real well and were easy to build, and somehow still have really dynamic poses. Only had 1 issue with one of the skeletons where i almost broke an arm off trying to push 2 pieces together.. they seemed flimsy at first but once I got them all built they were fine.

I'll probably pick up the new nightvault stuff next month.

What did this unfortunate explorer unearth in the Nightvault? Perhaps Spiel in Essen will shed some light…

Looks like the silhouette of a Fellwater Troggoth (River Troll).

The middle one, in fact:

That's odd. Why would those Troggoths be in Nightvault?

I figured we'd see the new fungi one's silhouette.

They won’t be, it’s probabky just because it has a more menacing and distinct silhouette than the fungus one does.

Oh my gosh, can't wait! I was really hoping for that warband in the first set of expansions, but if it's in the next I'll still be very happy

My kinda guy.. just wants to SLEEEEEEEEEEP

Sweet!! But I think the paint choices on the shroom and stalagsquig (lol ) let them down a little. The shroom smoke blends in with the mushroom cap too much, in particular.

I think they'll look better painted up in a bit more of an earthy palette, like the artwork:

He just wants to sleep and they have a novel playstyle. Maybe you get Glory for not activating stuff, or somehow not interacting with the enemy?

Wow, that is certainly...out there. IMO the troll is the weakest model, as is the mushrooms look a bit too artificially placed. A few roots, dirt heaps, insects and moss growths would go a long way, I think. Or go a different direction and have tidy rows of cultivated mushrooms cultivated by enterprising - and long since eaten - cave gobbos. His club is a bit silly looking as well.

But those squigs/thingies

Troggoth in art - angry and aggressive.
Troggoth mini : your timid, friendly neighbourhood Troggoth

Talk about pulling a 180.

If all he wants is a nap, I think the mini is closer. Can relate to the Troggoth.
