Well guys I have no photo proofs of this but a GW staff member has told me that a chaos deamon battle force will come out after Summer break. Isnt that cool?
Let me remined you why there wasent a Chaos Deamon battle force before beacuse they were all metal which was so annoying. Finally Plastic models are coming out! all those Nurgle and Tzencth minitures that you had a hard time dealing with (repaiting and crap) finally are going to be awesome! I am not exactly a Deamon player I actually play renegades but I am planning to collect and get some Nurgle deamons so that finally makes me happy too. Anyways please comment below and tell me if you think this is fake or is real and what you think about this over all.

I edited my post by finding a plastic miniture of a daemon prince. FINALLY!

At the risk of bursting your bubble, there are no new nurgle plastic deamons in the upcoming deamon release August.

I don't see how homosexuality fits into this..

urm, there still aren't any plastic Nurgle models, just to point that out.

The first wave of demons also saw the plastic Bloodletters and daemonettes, it wasn't all metal.

Hmm.. there is some talk about a " Traitors of Chaos" box set, but scuttlebutt on that seems to indicate it's only 4 figures..

I would be surprised if there was a battleforce as AFAIK they stopped doing them, but I guess with more plastics available they could do one for fantasy and cross market it for both systems. Course that'd be sensible so... you can see where I'm going with that.

Whilst I'm sure the gay line was an attempt to be humorous if we could lay off that in future it'd be better.

Well we just need to wait and see rite?

RITE!

booyah

It would be nice to see them get a battleforce box. The fact that BA didnt get one kinda bothers me. I have always liked the idea of the battle force box and would be rather sad if they stopped doing them all together.

A 3rd wave of demons seems a little odd however. Maybe they will mix them in with a new csm model and/or dex release with in the next year...one can dream right?

BA didn't get one as a marine battleforce would suffice , okay you have DC and sanguinary guard but here are oher figures in plastic for standard marines that aren't in the battleforce.

I thought the reason for no Battleforce/Battalion was because not every Daemon player wants those models in their army.

No its beacuse it was so anooying to make a battle force with metal models.

What? You dont make sense.

lol.

Still doesnt neuter his statement, its legit. Who would want a battleforce of mixed models with different daemons.

Too many gods, meaning too much infantry to narrow down to Battle Force that pleases any player.

Yeah, because they'd NEVER put a god specific unit in a battleforce that they're trying to appeal to people who play specific gods, right? ....Oh wait *glares at Chaos Space Marine Battleforce*

Unlike CSM, Daemons are not undivided captain sassypants. Some like daemonettes, others like bloodletters and yet more like horrors.

Well as you siad the chaos Marines have a varaity of black legion and Khorn Berzers. So why not to Nurgle and Khorn?

No offence, but the staff member needs a public execution.

Nurgle wont be getting any plastics.

New plastics:
Daemons prince
bloodcrushers
seekers
horrors

New metals:
kairos
changeling


Nothing on a new battleforce, but i doubt it due to it not being made known by anyone yet.


Also, just a quick reference here, but staff members rarely know whats going on with the hobby.

thanks for letting me know about that
Well seems like you have even more information then I do.

If you need info on upcomming releases, dakka is your best bet, simply search using the function, or check news and rumors.
Alot of info is leaked, and pretty much posted on here the same hour.

Staff members dont really tend to be told alot by the seems of things, as they have often given people incorrect info.

Check about the news and rumors thread and there is a daemons on going, with pics and a list of whats comming.

If there were plastic Plaguebearers, I would have dropped an oyster in my shorts and been signed up for 20 boxes already. But alas, Papa got the shaft again.

thanks for letting me know about that Well seems like you have even more information then I do.

There's nothing magical about having this particular information. GW has already announced most of the models listed here and put most of them up for pre-order on their website store. The Seekers (5 to a sprue), Juggernauts (3 to a sprue) and Daemon Prince are also in the preview "black boxes" sent to stores for customers to look at. I built the Bloodcrusher Juggernaut sprue for one of my local GW stores last week.

A simple check of the GW website Advance Order page, as usual, would be most illuminating.

Technically doesnt daemons have a sort of a battleforce? They have a spearhead box, which is very poopy. Though, i dont think they sell that anymore.

To be fair, neither the Fateweaver nor the Bloodcrushers are available for Advance Order, and neither the fateweaver nor the plastic horrors are in the Black Boxes. Aside from the 'hidden' reveal a while back on the GW site, there is no other indication that the Fateweaver is even being released for this Daemon wave; nevertheless, we know it's coming. Plastic Plaguebearers may also be one of the unannounced releases that were not on hand back when the Fateweaver et al were photographed (so the metal ones were used instead).

No, Spearheads were limited releases that contained only the NEW release sculpts for a given model range be they metal and or plastic. They were only available briefly at the beginning of those releases, they were never long-term stock items, just splash releases for collectors who wanted one of each new item. GW discontinued the practice of releasing Spearheads after the Warriors of Chaos in Nov. 2008.

Battleforces and Battalions are regular stock items that contain only plastic sets. There has never been a Battleforce or Battalion set for Daemons.

@Brass Scorpion

Good information to know Only been in the hobby for a yearish and old stuff like this still eludes me.

Some guy in a shop might not know as much as anyone here. Sorry, I am calling shenanigans!

@ mrwittwer:

You are most welcome. I live to serve, especially fellow Chaos enthusiasts. And welcome to the hobby, I hope your first year has been fun.
------------------

As for rumors of a Daemons Battleforce/Battalion, I'd love to see one and there certainly will be enough plastic "core" units to put in one after August. However, I have heard nothing locally from what's left of the GW HQ community here in Maryland about such a release. August isn't far away now, so if there is a good surprise like that coming there's not a long wait for it.

Rite!
