And looks like they're cheaper than I thought, too!

$23 for a terminator sized character down from around $30 and $37 for the 5 terminator sized infantry down from $50 (I'm assuming all of them are on 40's). Seems silly to call it reasonable but for GW it is. So I'll take it.

The Tree Revenants are on 32s, it looks like.

But yeah. Either way I'm in. I want to know how much the Kurnoth Hunters are going to run me.

I'm getting a strong 'Starship Troopers' vibe from Alarielle's beetle there

Impressive. Wooow

My French isn't so good these days, but they look like some strong rules!

These would make an absolutely stunning exodite wraith host army.

Use the half-elf sword wielding squads as your wraithblades, bow squads as wraithguard, big tree as wraithlord, and the huge treelord character as a wraithknight.

That's exactly what I thought- very much a 40k exodite vibe. Likewise the Khorne warrior painted on the front of the book could easily be a CSM.

I like the little beetles carrying the arrows for the Kurnoth Hunters

Alarielle as Avatar, her Beetle as Wave Serpents/Fire Prisms/Falcons/Nightspinners!

I am determined to help Death in this campaign but sweet jesus these are tempting although the hive tree is really freaking me out, all those holes.

I am making an Exodite army. No two ways about it now. These will be perfect for Wraith Units combined with Wildriders for jetbikes.

Got to admit, I've not bought a big piece from GW since Nagash. But I am getting Alarielle first day of release. I am feeling distinctly excited about painting her. I popped over to Warseer out of morbid curiosity and unsurprisingly, they're all just bitching about it.

That's normal over there, now I can't wait to get my hands on that book I want the fluff.

Speaking of which, is there a decent raccoon model out there? Lol

Summer campaign update. AOS Facebook.

As Sigmar’s hosts strike against Chaos in the Realmgate Wars, we have been given glimpses of key locations within the Mortal Realms.

Now the Season of War dawns, for the first time we get a true look at the full majesty of the Realm of Life.
And it's huge! Those of you up to date on the Realmgate Wars books might be able to spot a few locations on there.

Upon three strategic points on this landscape are the Seeds of Hope, the new cities of Order that you will be battling over during this Global Campaign – but who will claim them? Muster your forces now, for Order, Chaos, Death or Destruction – the campaign begins on the 14th of July.

More details on how you can take part are on the way soon.


Hey guys we finally got a map of the realm of life it seems I am right each realm seems to be about the size of the old world.

Should I just delete my post?

Personally I can't wait for new maps of the realms someone put it best on grand alliance. Props to Amysrevenge.


The setup to me is that the Old World was like an amazing, intricately detailed domino puzzle, already set up, with a finger about to knock over the first domino. Fantastic tension, waiting for the release of that first domino to fall.

For 30 years.

Tension, waiting, hanging on the edge of disaster. Static. Immobile.

For 30 years.

There wasn't a way to move forward - you can't un-tip a domino puzzle; once you set it off, the dominoes are coming down. There wasn't a viable way backward - the tension would evaporate (see: Storm of Chaos). They dickered around a bit with moving farther ahead a couple steps and threatening to knock the dominoes over from a slightly different starting point, but it was the same tension, and the dominoes would fall in the same pattern.

So they knocked them over. There you have it, it's done (see: End Times).

Now with the Mortal Realms, we're watching them (and, to a probably very small extent, helping them) set up the dominoes on an empty surface. No tension, just creativity. It's a completely different paradigm.

Is that Nurgle's symbol like, right in the middle of the map?

que dramatic climax music...

du du dahhhhhhhh

Yes. Nurgle sent a host to Ghyran to capture Alarielle while she was vulnerable in her chrysalis state. The Stormcast Eternals and Sylvaneth forces managed to hold them off long enough for her to transform.

- Alarielle 105 €
- Branchwych 18 €
- Drycha 46 €
- Kurnoth 46 €
- Tree-revenants or spite-revenants 29 €

- Battletome 33 €

I think so. Didn't Nurgle's armies invade the realm of Life, in the books?

Aside from the Tzeentch stuff in the Silver Tower game, these Sylvaneth figures are the first "new" AoS miniatures I've really gotten excited for.

-Branchwych $23(we saw her price)
-Drycha $58
-Kurnoth Hunters $58
-Tree Revenants or Spite Revenants $37(we saw their prices already)

Aside from Branchwych and Tree-Revenants pretty much in line with the rest of the AoS releases.

They give us a map and we still don't know what the "Mortal Relams" are exactly.

Drycha and Kurnoths are cheaper than expected, and the Tree-Revenants are not too badly priced.

Would have liked 10 in a box, but I'll take cheaper for less.

It's the inhabited realms, where there are flesh and blood(or bark and sap) entities rather than spirits.
