Kharadrons need better more up to date rules more than new models. New models would be nice of course, but let’s make what we have work first.

Ko and Slyvaneth will probably just be books, spells, scenery. Will be very interesting to see if Ko get an endless spell equivalent. I don't think we will see Slaanesh until May or so. Black legion is clearly the next big 40k release and I don't think they would put two major, long awaited releases next to each other.

KO don't function correctly at the moment in core concept, Sylvaneth have trouble with their core concept being dysfunctional though not as bad.

Hmmm Blisterskin Court worships Hysh? I wonder if Tyrion is hearing the constant chattering of the Mordants as part of his prayers from his other worshippers.

I expected this trope. It's suiting for the FEC, although it's a bit unclear to me if that particular court emigrated from Fire into the Light (sounds like a cheesy power metal song), seems that whatever is calling the realm of Hysh its home gets some bonus on movement along with command point regeneration/recycle.

I'd love it if it'd be stated that Tyrion is capable to perceive their delusion. I think it was showcased that although he is blind he does perceive other things, I'm not sure where I've read that (perhaps in Pantheon).

It would be really ironic if he could but instead insisted on sending armed expeditions to the realm of fire to look for that shining kingdom that must surely be under siege from all the abominations his servants keep finding (and battling) instead. He could even have visions of said knights fighting even worse stuff at the same time, just to add to the urgency

Next releases...

So based on comments in the review panel I think it's a solid 'yes' on Sylvaneth getting a new battletome.

Also before it gets asked; they said judgements of khorne would be their own thing and not part of blood tithe.

Oh and the blood skull comes in a pair.

I'm usually not a big Khorne fan, but those endless spells are amazing.

Khorne gets endless spells before Tzeentch?! GW really has a hard-on for the blood god, eh?

From the Warhammer Community article...

…and a host of summoned Khornate phenomena. Don’t call them “endless spells” – you’ll just make the Blood God angry. Instead, these are pure manifestations of Khorne’s wrath, brought into being by the brutal clamour of war and, of course, the copious spilling of blood.

"Judgements of Khorne"

If it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck...

I'm digging the upgraded SkullTaker.

A shame most of my Khorne stuff was sold off.

Never a bad time to start again, is it?

I think there are some teases towards slaanesh in plain sight. Speculation time!

I think the biggest hint is the guy in this picture, the third one. That's some bondage level stuff there, maybe it's also a hint towards warcry as well?





I think slaanesh will be mixed up in the new AOS expansion, if we look in the top 5 things to look out for this year GW notes new endless spells, slaanesh and the expansion for AOS. I suspect we will get a tease of slaanesh around valentine's day, GW won't miss that. They even used it to reveal Morathi.

So was any mention made of this new "War Cry" outside of it being made by the guys who did Kill Team and Underworlds?

Sounds very much like the low model count skirmish game we've all been wanting for Age of Sigmar...

Oh yes I am quite excited for warcry, I think the allpoints(the new chaos wastes) and the varanspire will be involved considering the trailer

They said there would be a large number of new miniatures for Warcry "some of the best I've ever seen." It was also previewed right after shadespire but before 40k, so I'm guessing that central 'bondage guy' image is one of them.

His art shows up in the trailer when they are super-imposing pictures on the Warcry logo.

*begins breathing harshly through nostrils*

He looks like a slaanesh character so maybe it is actually a hint? Oh boy new models, can't wait!

edit:He might actually be darkoath as well. *lowers expectations*

Do these (Warcry teaser at 9s) look like Slaanesh characters too?

That guy is at 16 seconds and he looks more Darkoath to me.

Man if they end up doing a Gutbusters Battletome that could be the best thing at least for me.

The new Skultaker looks really cool but is a little slimmier than I like my Skultaker. I still prefer the old one but I'll get this one.

On the FB page they downplayed the icons, stating that they were just generic representations of the different Grand Alliances, and not indicative of future releases. Could be pulling a fast one, though.

The quote for the FB-less :

We've just used these as ways of illustrating the different Grand Alliances, Simon. Only the gods know what we'll see this year!

But I afraid Gutbusters can go the way of the Greenskin if they don't receive a proper Battletome... (A new plastic Tyrant would be lovely)

So the tag line at the end of the Forbidden power teaser says "the Stormvaults open". Looks like Sigmar is mashing his new chamber button again

Warcy sound interesting. But will it be limited to Chaos forces? I eagerly await more info.

Forbidden Power: Endless Spells 2, Electric Boogaloo: 17 new ways to deal D3 mortal wounds.

The Khorne 3.0 that nobody asked for, with totally not endless spells.

Really sour reveals for AoS.

Sylvaneth warband for WHU looks well sculpted but a bit samey.

War Cry better not mean a discontinuation of WHU. I would assume arena gladiatorial combat between chaos, chaos, chaos and chaos.

Not sure if this was shared his, but this picture of what appears to be an updated Be'lakor is doing the rounds.

That just makes me like the old one even more.

Yeah that model looks cool but Bel'Akor is probably the best demon GW or FW has ever produced by the master Juan Diaz.

While the old Be'lakor still holds up pretty good, I like the new one as well.

I think it's the chest armour that ruins it for me. Not bad in of itself, just doesn't quite gel. That and the incredibly dull pose.

I think that's a conversion. One hell of a conversion, though.
