So...has there been anything for G&O in the entire End Times release yet?

Assuming you mean Orcs and Goblins, no.

Hasn't got to them yet though, I don't know if they'll get a book or what. To be fair O&G are fairly well represented in Fantasy, they don't massively need anything as such. I guess nor did Chaos though. Or Elves.

Found on Waaaghgaming. de and Warseer Automatically Appended Next Post: Archibald_TK posted on Warseer about Bonerippers other hand option
Managed to catch a glimpse at some more detailed pics of Boneripper earlier - the kit features an alternate gasmask head which looks awesome and Boneripper can be armed with what I think are called Warp Braziers instead of the weapons he's armed with in the Dakka pics.

Hard to tell, even with the second picture. It may be the standard monster base, or it could be a new Skaven one that's 40x80.

Yeah that's a bit weird. You can probably just paint it differently, or maybe swap them for some Beastmen ones or something.
He's bigger than he looks on his own next to that Clanrat.

As a person who's wanted to build a 40k skaven army and been lacking a big beasty to use as a basis for several of my larger creation I love this!
As a sometimes fantasy player I think it's a cool model even if I never did skaven in Fantasy. Dwarves, Ogres, O&G, and Lizardmen have always been my babies. Oddly the armies most likely to not get a dedicated book in the endtimes

I'm not sure they really need anything else to be honest, they've got loads of stuff to play with models wise! Sure there's some units that more than likely need to be updated though..

I wish I knew what would happen to armies - I have chaos dwarfs and with the Tamurkhan book discontinued / on hold, I'm hoping I can use my same rules even if CD don't get brought into the warhammer fold with End Times / 9th edition... but I'm not sure what will happen and it seems like it will be this way for half a year at least.

Me too, partly because it would just be nice/relieving to know what's going on, and partly because it'll stop all the people posting about how they're freaking out about their armies!
I think FW were going to release the Chaos Dwarfs army list as a PDF, or they were going to anyway.

Most certainly does! Can't be exactly sure, but I can at least be sure it's not a 40mmx40mm MI base. Automatically Appended Next Post: Whumbachumba wrote:

40x80 wouldn't be too bad for skaven. Would rank up nicely with everything!

Interesting looking model, might just have to pick one up for my CSM as some weird daemon machine hybrid.

Maybe there's more coming. Especially Named Characters. The ones we have right now suck so hard D:

They've featured in both the Nagash and Glottkin stories and campaigns.

And they're also probably the army with the most choices per slot as it is, I don't think they really need anything. Elves didn't get any models. Dwarfs, Lizardmen, Ogres, doesn't look like they'll be getting anything either. It's not like O&G have been singled out.

Lizardmen, Elves and Dwarfs don't need new dollies. They've just had some love last year!

Yeah but so did Vampires, and Chaos not too long ago too. Elves could've done with some reculpts, and a big model like the other ET releases have. I guess my point is there isn't really any pattern to the releases, so it's not like O&G have been singled out to not get anything.
If anyone has any right to complain, it's the Bretonnia players!

Has anyone noticed the large ogre-sized model under boneripper's extended arm, on the right of the image? It looks like a new rat-ogre, however it is not armoured. Should we cross our fingers for a dual kit between the new rat-ogres and vanilla rat-ogres?
Boneripper looks fantastic. I'd prefer the model to be clawed, rather than with weapon appendages, however it's still a great model. As others have pointed out, it looks suitably Frankenstein-like, as any clan moulder creation should be.
I'm not a fan of Thanquol's warpstone horns though. They look silly. Automatically Appended Next Post: Whoa. The gas mask is boss.
