Well we don't know what type of aelf it will be I think it's most likely going to be malerion's lot but I can also see it might be the slaaneshi cult related. But it's pretty clear that it's an aelf image all the motifs are there.

I'm just going by the fact that the colour scheme seems almost a carbon copy from the daemonettes' but I have that vibe.

If it was slaaneshi elves it would make me the most happiest guy ever, but I think aelf players have been waiting long enough and I do think the animal looks quite draconic, it's also sporting colours similar to malerion.

Its close to Tenebrael Shards paint scheme as well.

Yeah, getting those same vibes from the image I wish I could freeze myself until the reveal and not worry about work.

Honestly with the shadowkin released I think that would be enough for GW to starting looking at the other alliances *looks at death and destruction* then give older books the "blades of khorne" treatment since their ranges are pretty complete.
Adepticon starts in force tomorrow but today there are some opening bits, open gaming, some seminars today from GW (which hopefully will be repeated). Sadly can't arrive until tomorrow.

To be fair, Death allegiance stuff isn't far off. We've had the rumour engine pic of the Nagash emblem.

I would hope that they don't cram all the Grots together under one book. There's a lot of variation in there, and Destruction need more factions. Then again...maybe it would be alright.
I propose a third Grot army based on the 'normal' ones, with a wolf theme. The Wolftail Clans...or Wolf...claw...well, something wolf.

IIRC, the first "show and tell" is tonight at 8 PM CST. It is 2:45 CST right now.
"If you haven’t already secured your seat, online registration has closed, but there will be a chance to get a spot at the event itself, so be sure to ask at the registration desk when you arrive. There are two Previews – both on Wednesday the 23rd – one at 8:00pm and one at 10:00pm. (Get there early to grab a good seat – it’s easier to heckle from the front!) "
Edit: My buddy and I will try to get in if it's tonight.

Breaking news coming out of AdeptiCon today: more details on the new Shadespire game.
Warhammer Underworlds is a new tactical arena combat game on its way later this year. This is a system designed for balanced, small-scale tactical games, that can be played quickly and easily by anyone, but which even experienced players will find challenging to master. The game rules are designed with competitive play in mind; matches can be played in under 45 minutes, on a smaller surface than our larger-scale games, and will be ideal for club or tournament play. And not only that, we’ll be fully supporting an organised play system for this game, right from day one.
While the format of the game is a big departure from the game of Warhammer Age of Sigmar, Warhammer Underworlds: Shadespire is still firmly set in the Mortal Realms. The game is set in the Shadespire – an ancient and damned city, cursed by the Lord of Undeath to eternally sit in limbo between the realms of Light and Shadow – a haunted metropolis of mirrors, unquiet spirits and ever-shifting chambers.
The forces you can use in this game will be drawn from races across the Mortal Realms, including some for factions that have not received any new miniatures since we first ventured into the Age of Sigmar. Each of these sets will be composed of a small band of easy-to-assemble, push-fit miniatures in the style of our single-pose heroes to represent a specific band of warriors from that faction. These are provided in coloured plastic, and clip together, so you can quite literally be playing with them within minutes of opening the box with no glue or paint needed! (Though they do look great painted, and your dice will roll better – probably.)
The first two factions showcased in detail are iconic adversaries: organised Eternals Liberators and Khorne Bloodreavers. You can see from the poses of these models already that these are really dynamic and impressive miniatures. And yes, that is a lady Liberator in the video, organised, with a classic hammer and shield combo – for those of you who might have doubted whether Sigmar was an equal opportunities employer.
The game is played using unique dice and card decks, and these will, to an extent, be unique to each faction. Both decks of cards used in the game are fully customisable – meaning you can choose to create all manner of combinations of overlapping abilities to use and objectives to achieve. This can be a really rewarding part of the game – and means that even the same faction can be played in wildly different ways. We’re expecting to see all sorts of combinations tried out at game stores, clubs and in tournaments.
So, in summary, a new game set in the Mortal Realms with easy to learn, difficult to master rules, combined with deck-building mechanics and multiple factions makes this a game that will be simple to start, but offers near limitless tactical challenge and replayability.
Some lucky folk at AdeptiCon actually got to play the game this week at our Studio Preview – the rest of you will have to wait a little longer to have a go.
For all the latest news on this new game, be sure you’re following the new Warhammer Underworlds Facebook page.
