From left to right you have Chainrasp Hordes, Glaivewraith Stalkers and Dreadscythe Harridans.

Check, sorry you are right. I forgot about them.

Do we know if this book reveals who is in the Lethis Stormvault and whether or not they are released?

There are Bonesplitterz riding Wyverns in the artwork of the new Fyreslayers Battletome.

Makes you wonder when you see the new rumor engine pic:

https://www.warhammer-community.com/2019/05/21/the-rumour-engine-21st-may-2019/

That's old artwork - it was in the first Battletome, so dates from when they were still figuring out all the factions and stuff.

There's fyreslayers artwork with twin winged dragonlike creatures in them. Basically there's loads of stuff in artwork that is not always shown in models and might never be. Some might just be creativity, some might be ideas that are solid one moment and then changed/abandoned etc....

Still waiting for my plague monks with two-handed censer-spears!!

No Warhammer Tv painting guide for the new Keeper of Secrets model? Shame on you, GW.

And shame on this place... I consider these forums as having the highest of standards for complaining about absolutely everything and yet I don't see pages devoted to this? ......

I imagine they've been a bit busy with a new line of paint coming in June and everything that goes with it.

A picture, please? Or at least the battletome it is found in.

I really want new Skaven models for all the old and dated plastic or horribly expensive finecast models you're supposed to turn into UNITS.

Apparently Drycha loses her MW ability, Alarielle goes up 60pts and her Spear is d3 mortal wounds on rolls of 6s. Gladewyrms are 30pts.

I didn't get it, just going off secondhand info.

Given the set up of there Underworld warband, I'm very surprised there are no new Tree Revenant options or units in the new book.

Pics lifted from Warhammer Coventry”s FB feed. They do a good job of getting the scale across.

That's a cool setup for those kits!

Battletome: Skaven Pestilens. Forget where in the book it is, been a while. It's a small image that really doesn't indicate a new unit or anything, I just use it as a cheeky reference.

Except GW doesn't do these days much if any art WITHOUT model for it so who knows...

Venomcrawler for 40k was sneakpeaked so to speak in art as well.

Well the Pestilens battletome is three years old and was released back before Age of Sigmar had points.

Here are the leaks:
https://spruesandbrews.com/2019/05/26/sylvaneth-leaks-spoilers-within-sample-of-battalions-and-scrolls/

So far, things look mixed.

EDIT:

Here are some points

Alarielle 660

Durtu 340

Drycha 320

Treelord 200!!!

Need to specify what the leaks are for

so.. there arent preorders next week?

Seems that way.

I'd guess this was when the Sylvaneth were supposed to happen (especially since the digital codex was briefly up then yanked), and they couldn't move anything to fill the hole left by the customs delay.


Got to say on those leaks: Like with the dwarfs, I feel like the new models being spells (or whatever) rather than normal units is just a loss for the army. The fire elemental, worm and hive would have been far more interesting as just units.

It says Slyvaneth in the link.

EDIT:

Looks like the Full Sylvaneth link is here: https://imgur.com/a/UcWbh6E

Wow, Martial Memories is still awfully worded. Good to see! Shame they didn't stick with what Ylthari's Guardians currently have(At the start of the combat phase, roll a dice for each friendly unit within 3" of an enemy unit. On a 3+, that unit fights at the start of the combat phase, before the players pick any units to fight) as being the Martial Memories.

It's fluffier, it's better, and it actually is seeming to be the current design ethos.

Also, this book must have been done before the Arch-Revenant was. There's a "Free Spirits" Warscroll Battalion...and it's just copy/pasted from the current book?!

Get your act together, this is pathetic.

Edit Note:
It's entirely possible that the reason this was yanked is that it's not reflective of the new book proper. But given that it lines up with what I have in Looncurse? Yeah. It looks about right.
And that irritates me. It's the old Sylvaneth book with seemingly no real thought given to it.

I mean, I am 100% sure the reason it was yanked is because it went up early by accident. I am fairly certain what we see here is going to match the printed copy.

I am sure they will faq the Free Spirits issue. I also am disappointing that they didn't go with the warband version of Martial memories.

Jury is still out on the full book though, need sometime to digest it. The brightside is it looks like people won't have to spend 200 points on battalions anymore, with the way groves work.

OH BOY! SOME BLACK LIBRARY RELEASES!


It's "Titandeath", "Old Earth", and "Gotrek and Felix: Third Omnibus".
It's right here.

It's nothing exciting, nothing fun, nothing interesting. It's just stuff that would have been coming out anyways.

I'm sure that it's a big part of it, but also the possibility does exist that there's stuff different between the digital and physical copies. It isn't like them to not even acknowledge slipups like this.

I am sure they will faq the Free Spirits issue.

I'm still waiting for them to actually make anything that isn't Ionrach reflective of the Warscroll Battalions, so I don't expect that. They screwed the pooch--end of story.

I also am disappointing that they didn't go with the warband version of Martial memories.

Groves are the "Special Keywords" bit. Not sure why we're talking about them, because yeah--you're still going to need to drop points on battalions if you want them.

This was a huge missed opportunity to make the army more reasonable to play with more flexible battalion choices.

Yeah, I meant "Glades", not groves, but I don't see where you see that I am going to need to drop points on battalions if I want them.

EDIT: To clarify by "Them" I mean the Glades.

Impressive but needs 4! Enduring Stormvaults to make it!!!

Yeah, the post GW put up on the Warhammer 40,000 Facebook page literally said...
