Scyla is terrible, Shrine has too much going on, cavalry needs to be more dynamic, Valkia is amazing and I plan on picking one up at some point even though I don't do WoCs. Everything else is meh.
Are there any non-WoC releases or is GW going with a "1 army per month" schedule?

Kurl also posted the rules and ppoint costs for some models:

Galrauch, General on disc, General on Juggernaut, Nurgle General with scythe, Chosen, Be'lakor is the fincast stuff
(...)
as for the Base: All WoC Juggers are now on the same Base as Demigryphs as far as I can see.

BTW just for completeness: Photos confirm that there will be a small WD booklet containing the rules ... and not an army book.

The CSM thread shows a 5 man cultist box set release, too.

The Warshirne looks like something from Privater Press, the Slannesh Riders look awkward and they would probably fall off their mounts considering the speed that a Seeker moves at. The Khorne Knights aren't very special, considering they are using the same Juggernaut sculpts and slightly modified Chaos Knights. The entire release is a meh, a very big one too.

Me either, there isn't a single model that looks anything like that from them. I think that's just the new hater way of needling those of us that like good, well written games.

Closest thing I can think of (mainly as it's in a cabinet to the right of me) is the Throne of Everblight, but even that is pushing it.

I'm really looking forward to the answer.

OT: I do think the Warshrine looks quite funky, esp. those... things carrying it, but it is somewhat too large for my tastes, should be good for cannibalising for other kits.

Chaos in both Fantasy and 40k has been disappointing.

What's going on over at GW?

I don;t know, but I do tend to agree, rather lacklustre releases for chaos recently.

Maybe GW really has no idea what to do with them anymore.

I think the best thing that GW could do for Chaos would be to let FW sculpt the kits from now on.



The Chosen from the DV kit were pretty cool. That looks is the road they should have taken. A multipart plastic kit of that would have been exceptional.

It seems like they are going for weird, but bottling out of making them too weird and just ending up with lame.

Not a huge fan of the warshrine itself, but I'll picking it up because it looks like it will be full of wonderful chaos bits.

I agree that there is a huge disparity between FW sculpt quality and design and GW's.

Perhaps that has to do with lead times, but GW could just as well start sculpting things even further ahead of time.

I'm meh about this one. I was hope for plastic Dragon Ogres personally. The Jugger mounted knights are cool but how could they not be and they'll offer an easy conversion for people's 40k lords but outside of that I'm not really on board.

I'm hoping it's the paint job and picture that makes me almost hate the Slaanesh riders.....

Yeah the paintjobs and backdrops are all very bright for Chaos stuff.

I figured they'd bring out a Valkia model after they brought out the book. Looks really good, might get the model even though I gave up on the Dark Gods and don't play fantasy.

Ah the Hater thing, knew it would come up, also, I never said Privater Press was bad, but the model simply seemed somewhat like some of the stuff they produced.

War Shrine reminds me of the Coven Throne/Mortis Engine (i.e. mess) although I'd say it's marginally better than that piece. The individual parts do look pretty cool.

Khorne Juggernaughts are fine, Slaneesh riders suffer the same static pose issue as their daemon equivalents.

Anyway, I have quit GW, so my views aren't inconsequential

What the hell is going on with that shrine? It's awful.

And Scylla looks like a mutated gorilla. It's legs are tiny.


I like the Jugger Cav though, and the lady with the wings. They're fantastic.

Go on, I'll wait.

Went to the guy's photo bucket and I quite like Festus (is that his name?) too. Nice Nurgle mini

Not for long.

Coven Throne/Mortis Engine

I saw some resemblance.

Which are both produced by GW.

I don't want any of that for my Chaos Space Marine army.

Are the Juggernaut riders only Khorne? And the altar too? If so, then my enthusiasm has been drained as well...

EDIT: I forgot that Juggers are Khornate beasts already. I can still cut off the symbols if I want I guess.

And after seeing the character models, that Scylla is just atrocious. embarassing for GW if it'd been released 15 years ago.

The Chaos Space Marine codex only allows Juggernauts for dude's with Marks of Korne. They actually look good, but I'm running a Tzeentch army.

The rest of these are meh. Don't want them.

The War Shrine can't be Khorne. There aren't enough SKULLZ!!!!

Actually, there are surprisingly few SKULLZ on the model. Are we sure this isn't a clever fake

Who did not give that thing a MoT anyway? :O

The Slaanesh Kinghts remind me of Labyrinth Goblin Knights, for some weird reason. I think it's the legs...

You mean Slaanesh knights. There aren't any Tzeentch releases.

Ironically enough it reminds me of the end result of a one night stand between PP's Earthborn Dire Troll and the Kriegsaffe from Hellboy.

K, for anyone that has seeing Tomb King War Sphinx, Lizardmen Stegadon, FW Squiggoth, does the chaos war shrine NOT look like its supposed to be a howdah piece mounted on something, say a large mammoth , or blocky type creature.

It looks so unatural with those 2 carrying it, along with the lack of details on the 2 carriers, Im assuming that was not the original plan for this kit.

I agree. Perhaps they were going to make a smaller War Mammoth at some point.
