I've been pegging Slaanesh as Q3 2017 since AoS' launch, still hoping I'll be right and it isn't later than that. Seriously doubt it will be any sooner though.

They use FW resin now, finecast is gone entirely afaik.

Nope. Canoness Veridyan is the most recent resin release from GW and she's only been out for a few months.

Just to bring up the topic of finecast. I bought the cannoness and she was finecast and not anything similar to Forgeworld resin. I imagine Slambo is the same.

Its possible, the release of the next triumvirate and 40k campaign book in march should only last a couple weeks. So once that is out of the way i'd expect Duardin.

Huh. I got a Firebelly several months back and it was definitely hard resin like FW, not finecast. Weird that they are somewhere in-between.

I really like the big crossbow guys, love any weapon that needs a stand. I hope Skaven get Jezzails again.
I too wish you could get the birds separately though. I know their rules work in unison with the Raptors but I only want a few SC for my Azyr force and would rather them be normal Liberators or Vangaurds, although that eagle sitting on the hand will be a much need bit for hero conversions.

No, that's a rocket propellator, duh.
The new crossbows are weird because the one kind is way to massive and the long one has arms that are not massive enough!
(and the longer ones clearly las cannons)

Both variants are good, the longstrikes in particular are OP IMO.

They seem so at first glance but one shot each at 180 makes them really swingy imo. My Star-Fated Arrow fails all the time and this is basically a unit of that.

Those rules are ridiculous and you will not make friends showing up with 30" ranged army. I already receive much flak from bringing 20 judicators with bows.

I've seen what jezzails do hitting on a 4+, these guys hit on a 2+. I suspect people are going to find that two-three longstrike units are very difficult to play against.

I wonder if they will do a Wanderers BT. Initially it didn't really make sense for them since most Aelf survivors took shelter in Azyr but now life is starting to take hold in Ghyran, maybe a lot of Aelves (Wanderers) re-integrate themselves into their natural environment in harmony with the Sylvaneth. I'd like to see what they're up to but I don't think they will get anything new sadly. Fortunately their models will age really well.
