Of course they did.
Yeah, I'm sure there was no context which gave an immense advantage to the slaanesh side or anything

-4 battalions in the book, and they are altered (in some unclear manner) based on what Host type you take.
- No Khorne allies (nice)
- Slaanesh keyword units are all allowed, so Beastmen and Slaves to Darkness can still be Slaanesh allegiance
- Can sacrifice Hero wounds on Fane... or give it an artefact. Still not clear what the latter does.
- Keeper of Secrets 1v1'd Archaon at "lunchtime" in a game as a Pretenders general.
- Archaon and Skarbrand got trashed during practice game, which was "quite fast"
- Keeper of Secrets battalion confirmed.
- Endless Spells are called "dreaded Visage, Mesmerising Mirror, and ..." one I couldn't make out. Mesmerising Mirror is a control space spell, that discourages people from getting to close (for some reason). Face with tendrils debuffs bravery and includes mortal wounds.
- Contorted Epitome: pair of Heralds, take energy and send it back to the Temple of Mirrors. Mirror also slows enemy combat (as we know), 2 spells: Overwhelming Acquiescence, and one I don't remember.
- Heralds are ALL WIZARDS and are split between "foot" and "mounted". Heralds can ride all the chariot types including Hellflayers.
- Overwhelming Acquiescence spell gives re-roll ones and can be cast an infinite number of times ( though still only once per caster)
- Seeker chariots get buffs to charges and impact MWs
- Hellflayer chariots are "more about the grind", and has more overall attacks than the Seeker Chariot.
- The Exalted Seeker Chariot includes both Hellflayer and Seeker chariot rules.
- The chariot rules caused the rules design team to rethink "monstrous cavalry in AOS" as a general concept, and the Slaanesh book is the first rollout of the new ideas.
- Contorted Epitome and Keeper of Secrets are the designers two favorite warscrolls in the book.
- Keeper Warscroll has a ton of options to differentiate them (apparently. This part was hard to understand - could've talked about different options in the army, e.g. artefacts or host).
- Battletome is definitely supposed to help shut down FEC by shutting down Savage Strike and command abilities with at least two different spells.
- EXALTED KEEPER OF SECRETS will get an updated warscroll to bring it in line with the new Keeper so that it "works along side it and doesn't seem weird" whatever that means.
- Depravity Points summoning costs went up, but aligned to points costs
- Depravity Points can only be used to summon - no other fun things.
- Infernal Enrapturess didn't change at all since W&R.
- MORTAL LORDS OF SLAANESH ARE NOT in battletome. Neither foot nor mounted.
- Still thinking over what to do with mortals - distinct possibility Slaanesh will be the first Chaos god with a separate book for their mortals.
Thanks for sharing.

And mounted hellmowers!? I had hoped but not expected... I may seriously get into slaanesh again as that is one of my favorite models (I don't know why, it just clicks with me).


No problem, when it came to the slaanesh lords they said they are not in the book and then said "are they still on sale?" So it's most likely that they are getting the axe, so if people want them they should buy them now.

All in all it's a pretty disapointing release. The KOS (especially the named one) is a real thing of beauty, but the rest is pretty bad or meh at best (and that DP simply don't fit in 40k). And not getting mortal followers is a huge deception. Still, might be too greedy cause we also got some real nice fiends not long ago, but I was expecting a bit more.

Its a good release, not a excessive release but a good release.

In terms of models released sure it is pretty tame, really focuses on the fact that Slaanesh is about the hubris of heroes. In terms of new rules content though I feel like from what we have seen GW hits things out of the park. The new battletome will be an amazing thing for Slaanesh players.

Unless you want new mortals. They've kicked out our unique lords from the book and turned them into generic slaves to darkness.

So true.
I was also expecting we should get at least one mortal unit to keep on par with what other gods already have.
Released deamon are very nice and at last a Slaanesh only deamon army would look interesting both model wise and on the battlefiled as far as rules are concerned,
but no mortals is definitely a let down in my book.

It seem like GW went in reverse what they usually do when a new god book for AOS comes out.

Mostly when a new god book comes out we get more new mortal units and very few demon units then when they update the book they add more demons and very few mortal units.

The demise of the boob snake lord is a bit of a kick in the teeth. Having the possibility of a dedicated book on the horizon for mortals is nice and all, but I would have much preferred even minimalist mortal representation in this battletome. I really can't understand why they didn't just add even 1 or 2 mortal kits to this release. Very disappointing.

I'll be waiting to see the battletome for myself before deciding whether to spend anything on this release.

Our foot lord is gone as well. Going around the web many people are not investing in the release anymore due to the clear lack of mortals. I am planning to use the money I was going to spend on the slaanesh release on daughters of khaine instead. Overall I find their choice of what to update confusing.

So they decided to release tons of heroes, fine but most people buy only one of them. So overall you aren't going to get a lot of money out of the release if you ignore the core of an army. Most slaanesh players have 40+ chaos warriors or daemonettes, along with some hellstriders. So they aren't going to buy new infantry for this release, but at the same time GW might use the excuse "oh look people aren't really putting down tons of money for the release. Maybe we should take our time updating them again?"

It's a vicious cycle, they could of had an explosive release but they chose not to do it. I even read up one person who was going to drop 300+ pounds but the news of no mortals made that budget for this release drop to 0 incredibly quickly. It's been a common story across the web. Overall this release has been tainted. Now, if they get back to slaanesh again they have to give it another slot when it could of been used for something else.

Same here.

Even a "Hellstrider on foot" kit would have done it for me.
They have the CAD data for these, change a few things,
add hand weapons, done.

A second kit could use the Tzeentch dudes CAD data as a base,
change the weapons, shields, masks,
add some Slaanesh icons here and there, a few gems, done.

I would but a truckload of Slaanesh mortal troops.
Unfortunately, tehre are none to be bought in this release.

Well according to GW the design team are still trying to decide where to take mortal slaanesh followers. The fact that they axed our two unique lords means in their eyes that they feel that they don't fit the faction.

Well, these two models were released with the Diaz deamonettes and seekers ages ago,
even If I own multiples of them, I can understand why they are retiring.
They may not be fitting with the general image for the range.

Should it be such an image.
No replacement whatsoever is what is bothering me.

If they are still at the stage of thinking what to do with the Slaanesh mortal servants,
it is pretty lame: the 3 others Gods get their mortal servants already...

It's more likely that the design team didn't provide new models for them and that the manufacturing team/management has a general order to remover finecast and metal where possible.

So with no new models and no moral wing to work with the rules team clearly went with manufacture and removed those models from the book so the metal models could be removed from production.



It does somewhat highlight how godly powerful the design team are in terms of what we get at times. It also makes one puzzle and wonder how much pushback rules/marketing has on the design team in terms of making them make certain things.


I'm aware skaven didn't get this treatment, but at the same time they only got a new leader model and I suspect that it was simply a case that there was no manufacture slots to allow them to get a big update now. so GW went with the "just keep the old models for now and we'll do them later" approach.
I suspect Gutbusters might be the same, though one can hold out hope that they have got a big production slot.

I understand you don't want to block the inspiration of your design team but...You are still a business. Many people were ready to drop money on this release, the news of no mortals and our unique lords being turned generic has caused many to lose all interest. On the facebook page people are slowly waking up to the fact we are losing those two models and that there are no new mortals. Some still believe that GW are hiding something up their sleeve to surprise us.

Honestly those thinking GW is hiding something are living a dream - GW has been very clear that this is the entire release and that nothing is coming soon. The only "soon or next" thing is likely another Battletome.

As for releases lets not forget that AoS armies are being pushed out fast this year. It's not about fleshing them all out to big full armies with huge diversity and big model releases - GW Can't do that. It's about getting AoS to the point where every army can be played by buying the rule book and single Battletome.

Heck look at Flesh Eaters and Fyreslayers both armies that could do with new models and they both got very little (technically only one new model each and the dwarven one was a returned model for sale).


I think what we are seeing is more the fact that GW just has limited production slots rather than the design team only.

That's what it honestly looks like, GW seems to want to pump out as many tomes as possible this year to get the older armies up to par rules wise.

I am really happy to see Slaanesh getting a new battletome, miniatures, and some focus in general. I am really disappointed to see those two models go. To me they were really iconic and really well done, on top of having aged well and still looking good on the table (the aesthetic blends perfectly well with the hellstriders too). Losing them puts some tarnish on what is shaping up to be a sweet release.

Yep and that's a good thing, pre-christmas AoS was a mess of dozens of factions, some with only one model in them. The GW Webstore was a mess and any faction that didn't have a Tome it was never clear where the rules were (40K had the indexes shown, but AoS never even showed the Generals handbook for those armies which were within it). Come Christmas they cleaned up the online listings a lot and made it a lot clearer what there intentions might be, though still any faction without a Tome is confusing and likely selling poorly or not as well as they could.

Getting the game to have all armies in a final form and with a Tome is a big move for them. Whilst in 40K the maturity of most armies (and the fact they were not randomly cut in half or more) meant that a year of Codex was fine and the fewer armies that needed updates were updated, barring Eldar who are still rather losing out with a lot of finecast still. Meanwhile in AoS there's a wider range of smaller armies in need of a boost or armies with a lot more legacy models even going back to pure metal. That said GW still has limits and can't just update the whole game in a year. So yeah we are seeing a lot of choices being made and limits; but the Slaanesh release isn't bad. It's very good actually as the yare getting pretty much everything. Honestly the only oddity is that they are missing out on Dice.

GW does that from time to time really oddly - eg Tyranids also missed out on Dice. It's strange when almost every other faction gets them and then they just skip a beat now and tehn.

Fun one.

In spite of my misgivings over the lack of mortals, I'll keep an interest in the Keeper and the big honking Slaanesh symbol until I see 360°s and sprue pictures. I don't have an interest in the stock models, but I have a conversion for the Keeper in mind that I may want to do if the sprue design and general appearance of the the model don't get in the way too much. And as already said earlier, I want am empty center for the Slaanesh symbol.

I'm just sad most GW releases are now a crapton of heroes and then 1-3 units at most.

I know monopose heroes are just much cheaper and easier to make but at the end of the day is units, specially double kit units (I know for some reason GW doesn't do that anymore) what makes a faction interesting to play.

Not bad. I'm getting the impression that GW wants my money.

Nehekhara lives! Sort of!

Great stuff.

One should have to convert for the Rod of Command, which is missing...
Well you can't have everything I guess.
Gorgeous kit anyway.

Wish we could find out what the dagger, aegis, and whip do in terms of rules. The sinistrous hand seems a very good option to keep the Keeper of Secrets going. I would imagine the whip + hand combo might be good for increasing chance of triggering the hand's effects.

Is the Keeper of Secrets on the same 100mm round base as Morathi? She'd make a great alternative model for a Keeper of Secrets in 40k if that is the case, and she's got an absolutely amazing model already.

Endless spells and the Fane article is up as well.

I wish they had included the 40k rules for the Fane... I want to know what it does if I am going to preorder it. Though I probably will anyway just to have a terrain piece for my army haha.
