I wonder if the LOC will get rules for silver tower....that might be too crazy though. I am definitely considering all of these models for silver tower. Get rid of all the duplicate sculpts, more enemies etc. I just wish they would make some more character/hero sculpts for all the races.

There is big lack of female characters for silver tower, and i'm surprised tzeentch is so male centric this time around. Because of the four chaos gods I figured Tzeentch and Slaanesh had more women followers than the other gods. And warhammer onlines tzeentch art represented this fairly well. The kairic acolytes are cool but IMO they all look the same except for weapon variation.

I do wonder how the Tzaangor banner and Pink Horrors interact with each other. It'll be hilarious if each Horror counts as a wizard for that purpose.

Says unit of Pink Horrors and keywords apply to units whether that unit is one model or 40. So I'm reading it as the banner adds a single dice for the unit and not one per horror.

Silver Tower I thought was getting new rules. I can't remember where from though. I thought it was either January or maybe it was February White Dwarf, or if I am wrong somewhere else. Not sure if the new rules were actual rules for everyone to use or new rules for minis or new minis. I guess keep your eye out.

Hulksmasher, that's probably how it works and how anyone reasonable will play it. Cause even then, taking 3 units of Tzaangors with 4-5 units or wizards is throwing out 15 dice with 7.5 mortal wounds. Thats pretty much 2 free fully charged arcane bolts. On top of other arcane bolt like spells from Tzeentch or the thaumaturge or whatever else is in the book, we could be looking at some disgusting hero phases.

That would be awesome, now if I could just get my White Dwarfs to ever show up on time...

There were some rumors about a undead expansion (or spin off) for Silver Tower.

People keep saying it's a dark eldar miniature, but IMO the purple cloak from the rumor engine belongs to a Death faction model. And if it turns it is so, I'l don't bypass the language filter like this,. Reds8n yell at everyone: I TOLD YOU SO! Like a madman.

New rules? Possibly. New LoC rules? Highly doubtful. The LoC would be too large to fit one most of the board pieces, especially alongside other figures.

I'm expecting new rules for the Aranite with Vukchark and Dark Scroll and Tzangor Sorceror at a minimum, with hopefully extras for the Changeling, Tzangor Exhalted, the Tzangor Skyfire units, Blue Scribes, etc. I'll pretty much take anything for Silver Tower!

Tzaangor Skyfires just popped up in my AoS App, They look like Kurnoth Hunters (bow varient) , little less resilient but appear to be able to dish out more wounds. I am really interested to see if they are priced the same points wise or cost more. They are a must add in my opinion.

Still not so familiar with Fantasy/40K/AoS. At the time I posted I didn't know the LoC was that big huge new mini coming out. I thought it was one of the smaller ones. Thanks for the corrections.

Are pre-orders for the LOC the 21st or do we not know yet?

RULE 2 is STAY ON TOPIC

RULE 3 is NO SPAM

Thanks!

Is that a pink horror smashed into bits and turning into blue horrors?

Cool.

So I find interesting that AoS seems to be fairly more upfront about chaos corruption than the Imperium, considering that they outright fear chaos corruption being around.

Sigmar really needs to tone down the snobbery of his Azyr folk. Having that tension between Azyrites and other Realmers makes it that much easier for Tzeentch to plant his seeds of rebellion.

Thinking about how each race is trying to live together and you got things like Aelf pirates controlling the docks and the non-Azyrites living in the slums makes me think the cities are like Novigrad from Witcher 3 and I like that a lot.

I believe it is.

I have to presume that the new Daemon boxes will be generic branding, neither AoS or 40K, yes?

Sheesh Alpha. You're really comin' down hard on anyone telling even the slightest jokes.

Well in context of the age of chaos and the people of ayzr being locked up in their realm a lot of people know of chaos and they are still at war with them. No one knows the gritty details but also many of the natives and grand parents of natives of other realms lived with the chaos warbands rampaging around before sigmar launched his war and established the cities.

It's in context of the consequences of implicating yourself with a possible cult or not saying anything when the witch hunter in the city of secrets novel introduced himself formally callis started to pretty much start crapping bricks the witch hunter also tells him he has the power to punish people who avert their eyes instead of reporting anything they have seen if he finds out that someone knew something and said nothing in fear or etc.

Case example one event of what a witch hunter can do.

I found Kragan and EnTyme's exchange hilarious

Excelsis was an interesting insight. Now, though, it is representative?

Just think about it, excelsis may have been a "fairly recent" (30 years at most) city, with little in the way of social integration and the stormcast around not helping much. But what is the situation in those cities that are older and have different stormhosts??

Maybe things vary from one city to the other. Still I'm interested to see where this is going. Plus we need a map for the realms. Not just ghyran but the whole deal. Sigmar knows I'd kill for one and get a proper sense of scale sometimes.

You mean the aelf mafia right? We have to be correct here, well its a case of them having the important jobs because in context sigmar does not know if natives are corrupted and the amount of people pouring into the city for safe harbor I assume this has bled into the people of ayzr somewhat hence why he made the order of ayzr to ensure bad stuff does not happen I mean even the everqueen when being reborn sigmar sent the celestant prime to "help" her but he also sent him in the off case she is corrupted by chaos.

Still I assume it varies among the cities, Nick has noted the hammers of sigmar(golden stormcast) actually mingle with the populace.

Thats.........so metal. Not just he has him crucified on the wall of all things but so that Orruks could use him as a target dummy, brah Age of Sickmar.
