for what is worth I like the name, and as Im not familiar with the old hammer.dwarf.holds (always and forever a Tilean dog of.war!) don't find it confusing.
Actually I think it may also take some inspiration from the Karkadann, which is a mythical creature that is described as a scaly rhinoceros with a poisonous/medicinal horn. It even has the rhino horn. So maybe Karka- from the mythical scaled rhinoceros, and -drakk from dragon.
That's great insight into the matter!

I'd go with it being something for the Grotbag Scuttlers rather than Pirate Vampires (in AoS Nagash has the undead pretty much under his bony thumb).
There has been a pirate vampire fleet referenced in the lore, plus the undead - especially the vampires always chaff under his grip.
Yeah, but I want to see the Grotbag Scuttlers first...
That's a common misconception. You actually want Vampirates first. It's a scientifically proven fact.
Ever since the sky dwarfs got their big ship I've been considering converting it with an undead crew. Though as with most other projects involving GW models that never happened. I wouldn't mind if I successfully procrastinated so long that GW releases the real deal.
Plus, I wouldn't mind if they released a new undead faction I actually like.

If it has a even slightly gloomy/serious aesthetic, I would drop every other AoS project for Vampire Coast. That is all. :-p

Aw yeah. I wonder if the contents of the box mean Skywardens or Riggers are now battleline.
I hope and pray they learned their lessons, and KO will be at least as functional as everyone else.

Nice Tzeentch dude.
And Battlebox means lots of already released minis.
Which means they'll be going cheap on bits sites.

That looks like a slim box.
The itty bitty skyboat and a box of flying dudes vs a box of Screamers and a box of Tzaangors on discs?
We (Tzeentch) better be getting a terrain piece and 9 endless spells.

I think there’s more than meets the eye.
The video shows larger units than the basic 3 per box, so I wouldn’t mind betting we see quite a bit in there.
The character, 6 endrinriggers and a gunhauler is fairly cost heavy, so could be a nice discount box more than anything.
I wouldn’t mind betting the tzeentch stuff has more than a character, 3 screamers and 3 skyfires either to boost it.

Really love that Endrin Master! Looking forward to getting the box but Jesus that will be the 3rd one in a month..- sisters army box, Nid bioswarm and then this ..might sell the sisters box.. and I need to find someone to take the Tzeentch stuff from the box..
Looks like there might be KO terrain/model -there is the rugby ball shaped Endrin behind the riggers in one clip.. hoping the box set isn't stupidly priced ... Automatically Appended Next Post: Jackal90 wrote:I think there’s more than meets the eye.

Looks like 6 skyfires which would balance it out model wise..

Yeah, one of the stills shows the two heroes, the gunhauler, 6 riggers, 3 screamers, and 6 skyfires. I'm assuming that's all of it for this box.
Hopefully some endless spells in the books. Or maybe terrain piece for KO.

Yes, I'll just chime in with another observation that cheaper enlightened via third parties is the only positive I take out of this release.
Especially if the set is priced the same as the last Bonereapers v Ogres box which didn't tempt me for £100 and I really liked the models from that one...

It's definitely a bit sparse, but it's about on par with what we've been seeing lately in these bigger boxes.
Price breakdown:
Endrinriggers are $40USD per 3, so that's $80.
Gunhauler is $50.
Enlightened are $40/3, so that's another $80.
Screamers are $35/3.
We're looking at $245USD with no pricing on the heroes.

Hopefully we'll see the box-exclusive models released at some point next year. Looncurse was released in March and we're still waiting for the Loonboss on Giant Cave Squig and Arch-revenant to drop.
EDIT: Corrected release date.

I've wanted and unnamed Brokk since KO first came out, but it's hard to get excited about any of these new heroes since they're all stuck in limited edition expensive box sets with no individual releases in sight. So while I would theoretically love more stuff for my long suffering KO army, this gets more of a yawn than a yay from me. And if the new guy is as important to the army as the new ghoul hero was for flesheaters, I'll probably not even worry about the new book and just let my KO army continue collect dust which means I won't be doing my planned expansion of that army either, so that's probably at least a good $300 GW just saved me while I go see what's going on with Kings of War or if Oathmark looks any good.

Not going to lie, I feel this was a very lame Christmas reveal. We get two neat models for AoS (one for a new unit), notification that we are getting tomes for two factions everyone knew were getting tomes and yet another space marine character (because their aren’t 100 of them already). Oh and a made to order.
I would have hoped for at least a Scions of Flame or new Underworlds warband reveal. Or at least a new unit box for something.

The boxed set seems something of a surprise. Christmas reveals aren't necessarily big. Last year was just a video, if a fun one,

I wonder if the "missing" character models for AoS will get rolled into new Start Collecting boxes. Seems like the new StD box may be the approach to some of this stuff moving forward.
