Since they took out all three classes of grots from gw's aos tab, will that mean trolls are back to their ranks; and said that, stone trolls changing names to either of the two new names, or brand new trolls entirely?

River trolls went to fellwater, stone trolls went to rockgut, and regular trolls went to sourbreath. So going from the names the fungiod troggoths are new and presumably a dual-build with generic trolls.
Always keen to see new terrain. Could be good for converting Necromunda fungus farms...
Mighty fine point and well made!
I’m pretty keen on Gobbos at the best of time, because diddy wee psychopaths just appeal. And if they come with fungus odds and ends as sprue extras? All the better for my own little corner of the Underhive!

Dunno. ETB appears limited to the forces in the current boxed sets?
Posing options have been on the decline. Honestly you could just make up a random table of easy to build, monopose and multipose, roll a die and see what happens. That's as likely to get the the correct answer as trying to figure out GW's actual approach.
That said, for trolls my guess is they'll be pretty limited because they're organic, but not easy to build. Hopefully it'll be a dual kit with a naked and a shroomed up version. Not the least because I'd like to have plain old common trolls in plastic along with a hefty helping of leftover mushrooms for other models (conversions, base decoration and the like).

Nehekhara lives! Sort of!
Why is the rum always gone?

-Main rules either as a download or in a Rulebook
-A collection of Warscrolls for the warband you want to play
-The Skirmish rules expansion
-Forgotten Heroes, a fanmade compilation from the Grand Alliance forums that gives you the reknown costs for the units not included in Skirmish, or have come out since the Skirmish book
-Other stuff I'm probably missing from various battletomes
-New Content from White Dwarf
My plan for Forgotten Heroes is to write it up as a single document that will have everything you need for skirmish aside from Battle Tomes and War Scrolls. I put it on hiatus because I was waiting to see what was up in the new White Dwarf and i know there is a full blown skirmish ruleset on the way. We’ll see what happens, but from what I heard, White Dwarf doesn’t update much aside from scenarios.

Sweet! That'll be a sure download for me. I was already thinking that if I get into Skirmish, I'd be printing out the current Forgotten Heroes, Main Rules, cutting the binding on a Skirmish book and potential White Dwarf content, and just putting them all in sheet protectors in a 3 ring binder so they are all collected together.
Hopefully the Sourbreath trolls are more mundane so they'll look cool next to normal Orcs and Goblins.

Somewhat intrigued. Not terribly impressed by the armor on the cover art gobbo, and somewhat leary of excessive fungus, but I do love me some goblins and trolls.
Efficiency is the highest virtue.
