The Black Coach has been a Nighthaunt unit since the launch of Age of Sigmar with the DEATH, NIGHTHAUNT and MALIGNANT keywords.

Man, the updated AoS app is terrible.
Formatting is missing from a lot of Warscrolls, so no indication if an ability is working on keyword or unit name, tables are fethed, words missing, rules sometimes plain wrong.
My Ironguts now have 20" range with their melee attacks for example.

For just the Nighthaunt side we're waiting for the following...

Chainrasp Horde
Black Coach
Dreadblade Harrow
Guardian of Souls
Knight of Shrouds on Ethereal Steed
Kurdoss Valentian
Lord Exectutioner
Reikenor the Grimhailer
Bladegheist Revenants
Dreadscythe Harridans
Glaivewraith Stalkers
Myrmourn Banshees

That's an awful lot to be released in just two weeks.

Yeah this release is gonna last another 4 weeks at least, all that nighthaunt stuff plus stormcast. GW has released specialist games stuff alongside main releases too so it's going to be a busy july.

I think the Chainrasp hordes and Knight of Shrouds will remain Soul Wars box only for the time being with the Glaivewraiths and Banshees being just the easy to builds (then again the Sequitors and Evocators on Dracolines weren’t shown until today so who knows!)

Stormcasts have

Aventis Firestrike/ Lord Arcanum on Tauralon
Astreia Soulbright (She doesn’t seem to be a dual kit)
Lord Arcanum on Dracoline
Lord Arcanum
Knight Incantor
Sequitors
Evocators on Dracolines
Evocators (probably includes the version with the 2 handed staffs)
Lord Ordinator
Celestar Ballista

Plus new Azyrite Ruins

That’s a huge amount to get through

I doubt that. The nighthaunt release is almost as large as the deathguard was. After the two aos ranges are done the next big release will probably be Adeptus Titanicus.
I think the gsc 'leak' was done to give 40k players something to tide them over during the long aos release.

By the way the new stormcast sculpts look great and really seem to capture the feel of the new art.

I don't believe so. Good find.

A lot of the new Stormcast are gonna be a must for me, though I'm still gonna collect the original armored ones as well. I really liked that bulky steel wall look.

Every time they update the app it gets unstable. Right now it's horrifically so. I give credit for GW making a ton of improvements in the past year and a half but the functionality of the app has only gotten worse, if anything. I was using it today for a game and it crashed whenever I changed the filter from one to another, whenever I tried to search for a specific warscroll, and several times for no apparent reason. Warscrolls had issues with formatting cropping words out, weird stuff like grundstock thunderers using a warscroll almost a year out of date, not being able to find documents other than battletomes, and just general buggyness.

I chose an avatar I feel best represents the quality of my post history.

I try to view Warhammer as more of a toolbox with examples than fully complete games.

They sold printed warscrolls since last year and probably back in 2016 too. (Can't remember but I know the second Stormcast vs Khorne starter set had seperate warscroll packs)

They'll sort it out like they always do, just gonna take some time.

I found it being passed around Twitter. No idea on who the originator was(it was late and I can't find the tweet again, forgot to 'like' it) or I'd credit them.

Everything else they posted was stuff we've already seen previewed. Thought people would like to see the painting technique. Interesting use of Ionrach Flesh!

It's a shame that the tasty new undead horsemen are not specifically to create a full-on undead knightly crusade together with Black and Blood Knights. They even have a king to lead them (cravenly)!

I hope the Dreadblades are cheap. Probably not a 12€ box :/

Gathering the Informations.

The Dreadblade Harrows and Astreia Solbright, if I had to ballpark a guess will probably be around $40-50USD...and that's me hazarding a guess of something more expensive. Depending on the size it could be $25USD(same as the Blight Haulers).

Looks like the Harrows are meant to be 'lieutenants' for the Knight of Shrouds.

To be honest they should do all the monopose characters without poses easy to build. Give me back reasonable prices!

But giving it a second though... If that was the case all would go back to cost the same as they cost now.

Is there an indicator that predicts easy to build pricing? Box size? The small 3 man 40k boxes are 12, the new 12€ boxes have mor models but the same box size, but I think the Blood Reavers are in a bigger box and 5 guys and still 12€. The Blighthauler at 20 was in a bigger box, the dread an even bigger one, but Aggressors are 24 and I think the same sprue size as tje Shadespire stuff at 20 and Felthius's crew clocks in at 32.50.

I'll hope for 20 and expect 24 on the horsemen, at almost 33€ it'd be cheaper to get two KoS on steed from ebay right now. Not really a considerstion for GW, but still.

Those examples of using the technical paints are as underwhelming as expected to be honest.

The number of models is irrelevant, the new easy to build with sculpted base (so far) and one from shadespire are all on 2 same size small sprue.

Step 1: Use our new technical paints.
Step 2: Paint all over the new technical paints so you can't see the effect they create.
Step 3: Wonder why you bought our new technical paints.

Its just that I'm not entirely sure what they are actually there for.

Shades are easy - recess shadows and similar.

Glazes are easy - for blends and tints and verious gradual transitions.

These new technicals though? I dunno what I'm meant to do with them. Dilute not dilute? Coat the model in one coat or pick a small piece and jab it in the recess? Or try feathering with them?

Teach us Lord Dunc and we will buy and use all the new swag!

Anyone know how come the AoS app at least on iPad still don't have the new rules but the old ones.

Agies Grimm:The "Learn to play, bro" mentality is mostly just a way for someone to try to shame you by implying that their metaphorical nerd-wiener is bigger than yours. Which, ironically, I think nerds do even more vehemently than jocks.

Everything is made up and the points don't matter. 40K or Who's Line is it Anyway?
