Seriously sick. Love the Ellyrion Reavers.

I'm in the same boat, in reverse. I was gonna get two sets of Skaven, but now I'm tempted to go for two boxes so I can have plenty of both. Not usually an elf fan, but those spearmen and reavers are amazing, and I absolutely love the griffon.

It does make me tempted to start High Elves. Really it makes me tempted to start both armies, but I think we've got enough local Skaven players already. But to be honest, each new plastic kit GW releases anymore makes me want to start whatever army it's for.

OMG! Those painted rat ogres are freakin awesome! I was excited when I saw the 3ups but these look so freakin awesome, much better then the current boxed ones. Conversions here I come.

Dont care for the high elves...except the griffon, the rest I will give away, sell or trade.

I'm here for you Father!

I'm here for your Sister

I'm here for... the pie?

I know this has already been noted, but I am also VERY happy that High Elves have returned to riding 'regular' 'normal' horses too!

I still see some resemblance with the older elvish stallions. But I did like those so... no problem for me. I'm loving this minis.

In white dwarf it says it will be skaven
and i think Empire, I know it's skaven though

..err the box set is Skaven and High Elfs... that's what all the nice pictures are of on the previous few pages you see yes ?

lol!

I dunno. This could be a kind of devious bait-and-switch tactic that GW is now employing to further stamp down rumors and not let us know the truth until the very last minute.

/tongue firmly in cheek

Speak for youself!

I may not be pumped, but wimpy?

Everything you know is a lie.

Aduro wrote:Everything you know is a lie.

Yes but that would include what you just said which means that everything we've been told isn't a lie. But then you'd be telling the truth which means everytthing we've been told was actually a lie, which includes your statement....

I wonder if the tutorial booklet is going to be as minimal as Assault on Black Reach, I could go for a story driven tutorial segment, like was promised with Skull Pass but not delivered. Why did we get the pony and tied up Slayer dangit!

Yeah, i was quite confused about how little the AoBR starter booklet helped you learn the rules, it didn't explain any of the rules, unlike the skull pass one which was very in-depth. Fortunatly i wasn't bothered as i wasn't a begginer. And yes the scenery in Skull Pass was a bit random, i found that captured slayer in one of my trouser pockets a couple of weeks ago actually, how it got there only god knows!

You wouldn't happen to be a giant, now would you..

Haha are you serious? Like seriously serious? Looks like there's about 11 pages of this thread you may want to look at... or the GW website where they're pretty content to plug this game and confirm it's contents.

Next load are available

Man on man, that master moulder is PIMP! I will have to get a few of them, Im thinking with a little extra conversion work, that model could also become one of those warp tunneler teams.

Yeah, I think a lot of folks are going to do that. I finaly saw the figures in person today. The griffon doesnt look half as bad in the flesh. If anythign its the back half that looks elongated but it doesnt look unnatural. Them High Elves look super detailed i.e. a pain inthe butt to paint. I think I will paint them in a layered style and keep it simple. The Skaven look like they can be sprayed brown then have the details picked out and given a wash of Devlan Mud.

The more I see the more I like...

...and want!

And I really did NOT want to want another Fantasy army!

Alpharius wrote:And I really did NOT want to want another Fantasy army!

Everybody knows that everybody always wants to want other Fantasy Armies.

That's Warhammer Fantasy Battles Rules.

Need new spearman and archers and i will be very very happy.

I hope that was an oops.

Can we please get a link on the first post of the pictures? It sucks having to browse through 10 pages from either end to get to what we all actually want to look at instead of text.

Um, the topic title says there's pics on pg. 11.

And then they continue on from there.

The OP is, of course, free to edit the original post too.

And remember, not so grumpy!
