So what are you doing in an Age of Sigmar thread then?

Thing is, in that pic, he is looking past the pauldron. You can see his nose and mouth are in front of the pauldron, so he's looking past it because it is to the left of his head.

Whether he can see past the shield, well, that's a different story.

I think that's the problem with the picture, though. It just doesn't work, spacial-ly. How is his nose in front of that pauldron, even though the pauldron appears to go out far past the front of his bulky chest plate? Unless the pauldrons slide way back when they turn their heads due to some clever mechanism/magic.


Also, in no other picture do the pauldrons look so much like just upside-down space marine shoulder pads, especially that magical left one.

what a lovely left pauldron.

i like how he couldn't possibly see over it.

Their general-god-mage-king hurls them to the battlefield on lightning bolts and shoulder pads is what breaks belief?

Every time I see stuff like this, I hear this:

More On Topic, less LULZ please - thanks!

The picture looks fine. The pauldron looks about level with the pectoral part of the armour, so he'd be able to see past it okay.

MOVING ON...

I was browsing through the upcoming Warhammer Visions' photo gallery

https://www.games-workshop.com/en-GB/Warhammer-Visions-App

and in the 3rd image, that blue creature on a rock, is it a new miniature?

My tablet does not allow direct linking to it

False alarm Thanks for clearing that up

I kinda want to talk about this.



Now what caught my eye is the army of death bit perhaps they are going to start re-boxing some of the death models? Perhaps to get ready for the summer campaign because my local GW still has a vampire count battelion and they told me that they have to go back to headquarters by the end of this week. (Going to buy it because of the corpse cart) Or maybe it's just Iyanden eldar?

It's called 9th Age now. Or perhaps KoW. Also the "Last Chance" section combined with eBay and buy/swap/sell forums.

@Shinros, very possible it's AoS undead. Like you said, they could be readying it for the campaign and may be the reason the new Sylvaneth artwork has them fighting undead.

True they are polar opposite's hence conflict perhaps I can finally buy skeletons without paying extra for 25mm bases I will be so happy if they put 20 skeleton warriors in a box like ghouls.

Regarding the wishfull thinking about a return of Bretonnians, they are not coming back side by side with a future Total War expansion

Nope, not related. TW:W has 2 further planned releases which will see all of the old world races become playable. GW are not bringing back brets, as Taylor Swift would say "like, EVER"

http://www.warseer.com/forums/showthread.php?417842-Belloflostsouls-reports-quot-The-End-Times-quot-for-AoS&p=7633981#post7633981

Well of course, that was really a theory?

TW warhammer is all about eighth edition and fleshing out that world with 16 playable races. No connection to AoS at all.

If Brets were brought back it would probably be only after the Free Guild is expanded on (likely in 2-3 years) and it'll probably just be knights of the fallen mortal realm kingdoms with Bretonnian references but no actual connection to Bretonnia but scant ones.

Of course that's just my opinion.

[Edit] Hahaha, that Boronyeltsin guy and his false "saw TWW but got AoS and left" story got rekt!

This in my mind shows they are going to do it via grand alliances and you submit victories to the one you play.

It's already the 11th here, where's my war?

I'm trying to figure out what that monster is anyways.

Someone remind me- that whole "Paths of Glory" or whatever the Chaos Warband rules were called, those were going to be in the new General's book, right?

Its a Minotaur, I believe.

I doubt it will start tomorrow I suspect they are going to give us the full information on it so we can prepare for when it starts.

Any clue about when they will make the announcement UK and US EST time?

I really dig the Grand Alliance's symbols on the bottom.

I can see the Minotaur now.

Thought the nostrils were the eyes and was utterly confused.

Maybe we'll see Beastmen start to get repacked to coincide with all this?

They seem to have gotten pretty scarce back at home...

Shinros was right on the money, July 14 for the official beginning of the war. Plenty of time to build up those armies and get our hands on the general rulebook.

https://m.facebook.com/GWWarhammerAgeofSigmar/photos/a.452227281640737.1073741828.452117934985005/484621035068028/?type=3&source=48&__tn__=E

Also agreed with Shinros that the campaign will be grand alliance based. Easier to keep track of rather than the multitude of individual races and orders.

Interested to see what the narrative will be for the event.

Well.. and the book¿[b]

The minotaur is part of the popular artwork including the stormcast from the first "muster" poster.
Great stuff when you see the whole picture, so to speak.
Edit: art from the godbeast book i believe.

Thats correct.

LOTR Ruins of Osgiliath are back in the webstore (though not yet in stock). Perfect for AoS and a great price (£18)

Yup I was right on the mark I personally think it would be kinda interesting if Death get's a strong foothold into the realm of life instead of nurgle well I have to finish painting my minatures
