Ah, good point. Probably an minor update to the print versions to remove the 1.0 rules from the back then.

What's weird is that there isn't any sort of pattern that I can see. Bonesplittaz and Beastclaw raiders already have Allegiance Abilites and Artifacts in the tomes, so they aren't just adding the GHB rules to the tomes, and it isn't just about the age of the tomes since Everchosen and FEC books are still available. Tzeentch and Ironjawz have the 1.0 rules in the back, so it doesn't seem to be that either.

Seems like they'd probably do all of them then. The Sylvaneth tome for example has the 1.0 rules. They actually handled this in the errata as well. That's what this is about:

Pages 141-144 – The Rules
These rules are no longer used. Use the most recent
core rules instead.

Like I said, it could just be a case of staggering them so they don't all disappear off the site at the same time. And if they are updating the rules in the back to 2.0, they may as well update everything, such as points for the books that never had them, allegiance abilities etc at the same time to get them all up to the same standard.

I'd guess when they sell down the point a re-print run is ordered they'll be pulled for an edit to v2.0 instead, so there won't be any 'planning' as such, rather it will depend on what people buy

(unless they have planned updates in the works which will occur as normal)

Seems like a Reprint Thing.

I've been wanting and trying to buy the new Stormcast and Nighthaunt battletomes for quite a few weeks now - they've been OOS for a while.

This is a bit different as those two books are really new, while the ones that were mentioned are some of the early books.

Also the Nighthaunt and Stormcast books are still listed on GW's website (albeit they're listed as Temporarily Out of Stock Online). The books mentioned above are missing altogether.

If GW are updating hard copies they could be waiting for a certain amount of stock to sell out or for sales become slow enough.

That settles that, then.


Cool herdstone.

I do like me some terrain! can't see the price clearly but it looks like it ends in 50 pence is £17.50 like the Azyrite ruins to much to hope for?

The Endless Spells will likely be £20 like the rest.

Ah well. A shame about the lack of hats but it makes more sense this way.
Also, yeah, cool herdstone;like how it’s chained down, just in case someone tries to steal it…

Well, beastmen tend to live in the rougher neighbouhoods!

Chains also help against it being toppled over by drunk giants, minotaurs headbutting each other or excessive pumbagor...reproduction. Oh, and dragons taking off nearby or landing outside the markerlights to show off.

better resolution from 4chan

Names are Direflock, Doomblast somethinghorn, Wildfire Taurus if I can see correctly.

That herdstone is very evocative!

I like the idea of avian forces for the Beastmen

Given that we have a Ghorgon standing near Brayherds stuff, I hope this means they are merged back together.

If they hadn’t this would’ve been called Battletome Brayherds. I think you can expect Brayherds, Warherds and Monsters of Chaos in this new faction.

Given that the left page shows the Battletome, there is no hope needed. It's going the Legion of Nagash route.

So a Battetome for the "Legion" and maybe a separate one or more for sub-factions if they have a enough new stuff - see Nighthaunts?

Scenery and spell are always welcome, but i hope we get some miniatures too !

If we could have beastmen with marks, would be awesome !

Already got Tzaangors to be fair, whcih might hint at more to come. I'd be amazed if Pestigors didn't come back at some stage given how much love Nurgle gets from GW.

Did anyone else notice that this picture is from October White Dwarf, not September

https://www.warhammer-community.com/2018/08/26/from-the-wild-places/?utm_source=Facebook&utm_medium=Facebook&utm_campaign=AOS&utm_content=beastsofchaosleakresponse

It is official now.

Coming in September

This Battletome deals with more than just the brayherds, it compiles many of the bestial creatures of Chaos into a single unholy tome including Bullgors, Dragon Ogors, Tzaangor and more besides. A Beasts of Chaos force represents the untamed inhuman nature of Chaos is all its glory – a single army, with powerful, overlapping allegiance abilities, magical lores, and spells.

How has someone got the October white dwarf already, and what other Secrets does it contain?

Usually it's someone at the printers that does those kinds of leaks.

GW themselves have said it's a September release though. So it'll probably be riiiiiiiiight at the end of September, coming out in October so it won't be in September's White Dwarf.

Damn those birds have been built badly,

I like the look of them though

Looks like Flock of Doom.
