The 1d4chan article on AOS talks about an image of the new skeleton forces. Does anybody have a source for these images? I would love to see them.

I don't think there is any proof of what the new undead faction(s) will be. How many if there are more then 1 or if skeletons will be one by themselves.

I just don't expect Nagash to be a playable hero, since he's a god now.

Sorry, must've typed it wrong. The GW site lists the new armies and such and skellys are there. I was just curious about the source of their new official paint scheme.

All the old models will likely be replaced so its probably worth waiting as I imagine nee skellies will look vastly different to how they look now

The image they discuss is in the AoS trailer. You gotta pause it at 1:47 and you'll see the paint scheme they're talking about. They look pretty sick.

(i only know this cuz I had the same question a day or two ago.)

It's hard to say if that pause frame from the video is their new paint scheme or not or one of many possible official paint schemes, but it basically looks like a bretonia fleur thingy painted on the banner and using a darker purple as the main color with the rest being bone, leather and metals.

But it seems they are simply black knights ( with a conversion banner maybe ) and normal skeletons used.

Thanks, I don't think the other people entirely understood what I was asking!

Yeah, can't wait to see the new Faction-specific models GW will be releasing in the coming months/years.

The thing is, factions are basically dead as we know them. All that matters are the 4 big alliances: Chaos, Death, Destruction, and Order. You can play anything within those alliances (and mix and match between them all). Skeletons are listed under races, not factions. IMO they do this because of certain abilities that effect models with certain key words (Aelf, Skeleton, troll, etc), and separating out skeletons is simply for convenience of the online store.

Please read the question before commenting.

I did... I was responding to Coyote81.

in defense, I was confused by your response as well. BUT I'm still looking forward to seeing new undead miniatures

Haha, fair enough. I am excited too, if only for the possibility of some awesome new wight sculpts.
