A soublight vampire and some human thralls would be fun

Well that all looks totally spiffing Especially the 3D "terrain".

While I love the new Stormcast I hope they don't double up on them for warbands like the last season.

Love that Moonclan!

however, i am disappointed.

It's a current night goblin with armor and a brazier.

I expected a great design turn :(

And this means that surely they dont change the core night goblins for AoS.

This.

That terrain is the first GW thing I can recall seeing that's obviously airbrushed, Citadel Airbrush (with commensurate price hike) incoming?

I second this sentiment, while I think the shaman with the mushroom sprouting from his head is cool, I didn't want the whole mushrooms overgrowing them etc to be an overall design shift to Moonclan. I don't mind the odd quirky character that clearly went overboard in their mushroom obsession, as Moonclan love dem shrooms, but that would be taking it abit too far for the whole faction.

Edit: Now just give us some updated squig love finally and i'll probably be happy if I don't see any real new goblins themselves..!

Love the gobbo's armour! Getting faint Ian Miller vibes from this boy, I hope that's something they run with.

Really like the terrain and 2 next warbands, but I do hope there are at least a few gobbos in that team, at least one with a hood/more traditional look. I do like the armored one but the hoods are so nostalgic to me.

The dice also look better this time around, not a fan of the clear ones. I might not be able to resist picking this up. I should though, cause my backlog is ridiculous.

I wasn't a fan of the gobbo at first, but it's definitely growing on me. The paint job might be part of the issue, imo (too cartooney, an issue with the ironjawz, too).

I'm excited because revealing that and the Tzaangor now likely means they're coming soon after the main box

Looking good, hoping for a Maggotkin warband though

The Stormcast got two warbands last season, but they were different chambers. As far as I know, there aren't any new chambers rumored, so I wouldn't expect a second SCE warband.

Really like the previewed night goblin and hopefully that's a sign of things to come from a Moonclan battletome. Imagine them on squigs! Knights of the Shroom!

That all looks great. GW were definitely inspired by all the scratch built scenery people were making last time.
I hope the Tzeentch warband includes 4 Tzaangors and 2 cultists. I would finally be able to expand the silver tower minis into full units.

An alternative Tzaangor mutant would be nice. I guess there will be a Shaman on foot also with the introduction of magic.

That gobbo has a real Labyrinth vibe about him. I like it!

I hope we get something more interesting than just more Tzaangor for the Tzeentch warband. The model shown, while fine I guess, isn’t particularly interesting or characterful. Would have liked to see at the very least a more dynamic pose, or different armored bits. A Tzeentch warrior of chaos would be perfect for a shadespire warband, though I doubt we will get one. I hope the others are more interesting.

I love everything I see in those previews. The scenery especially - but they seem to correspond to the hazard spaces on the boards, so it is a shame they didn't also include equivalents for the dual-sided single board section they released separately (which introduced them).

Carlon, Ivan:



So far:
Cursebreakers
Briar Queen
A Moonclan band
A Tzaangor band, either alone or with Kairic.

Knowing the events that happened during MO, I'd expec, the next three teams to be Seraphon, Nurgle and Slaaneshi . Wouldn't count on anymore Khorne though.

You're probably right about Nurgle, but goodness I'm so over Nurgle releases.

I'm still holding out for Darkoaths.

And of course my real dark horses (in that I know full well they aren't coming) are the gladiator free humans, and Fimir

Fimir are a FW faction, until that changes they're not happening.

Freeguild are possible. "The Mirrored City" novel that went up for preorder this weekend centers on a Freeguilder.

I hold no expectations of Nurgle.
We have 8 factions coming for Nightvault. That's a known detail.
The breakdown for Shadespire was 3 Order(Fyreslayers, Vanguard Hunters, Liberators), 3 Chaos(Skaven, Bloodbound, Magore's Fiends), 1 Destruction(Ironjawz), and 1 Death(Sepulchral Guard)

So far the breakdown for Nightvault:
1 Order(Cursebreakers)
1 Death(Briar Queen)
1 Destruction(Fungoids)
1 Chaos(Tzeentch)

I'm expecting at least 1 more Death and 1 more Order warband, with the possibility of two more Death warbands instead. I'm kind of leaning towards there potentially being an extra Destruction warband instead of another Chaos warband.

I'm personally leaning towards them intending the count to come a bit closer for Grand Alliance representation. If they do it right? We could be looking at 4 Chaos, 3 Destruction, 4 Death, and 5 Order.

I go to very great pains to establish the fact that I know they aren't coming, and wish list them anyway. Don't mistake my desire for a delusion of hope.

I've got a job of crushing dreams, it's important to me...

Plus it's important to establish that for anyone who casually might just be following the thread and thinking "Wait who are Fimir?".

We are missing so far from Death?

Flesh Eaters
Soulblight Vampires
Necromancer
Walkers

I like the terrain, though like any GW release I'm a little worried about the price.

I haven't seen any good pictures of the Stormcast half of the starter, did I just miss it?

Terrain is £20/$35 a bit pricey for what you get and compared to similar sized kits

I would sooo like to see some mother reprodusing tomb kings in season three. That would be fantastical.
