As a 40k player, I heard sad trombone music as I read the WH Community article.

Every slaanesh fan MUST BUY THIS GAME. We need to show our interest with MONEY.

Yeah no real news. Good to see the Bikes from Speed Freaks I guess.

Really disappointed, they promised to show of something big and they didn't really show much of anything new and I sat up quite late just for this...small loss though.

You're getting a Silver Tower equivalent---a way for them to release a bunch of new characters and a faction?

Well I’ve taken everything in.

Pretty happy.

The Sisters heads aren't for 40k? Along with Blackstone, they were the biggest news.

Yeah, 40k Quest sounds awesome to me. Heads were okay, just glad they’re keeping the Sabbat heads.

huh, well that was quite boring.

Agreed.

No primarchs, no GSC news, nothing that interested me in even the slightest.

But, good to see orks are getting some love. Enjoy ork players!

"The Blackstone Fortress will have NEW CHAOS MARINES Vs Rogue traders (Think silver tower level models but 40k) and then they will be releasing them as multipart later, and the chaos release for next year involving Khorne and Slannesh has models for both systems."

From vince the khorne and slaanesh box will have new models.

Yeah the coolest thing shown for me was the two helmeted sisters heads, especially with the visor up. The top middle head is meh though, not terrible...the variety is good. The one with the eye patch would be my 2nd or third favorite.

40k quest sounds awesome, but my immediate concern was what characters players would get and my brain went immediately to marines. Hopefully it doesn't end up being bland as hell.

So the AOS webcomic roll models is the most popular thing the community team does. Who knew? I guess not everyone is into grimdark.

I never took Big Reveal to mean one huge thing.

But if you look at the number of reveals there.
New boxed games, models, updates. There’s lots there, which is big

I hope the Sisters Superior can take power-rulers when the new codex drops to punish wayward heretics and novitiates for their transgressions.

But I like these heads. Good to see the dude who cuts everyone's hair has learned a new style beyond just bobs. Some variety and non-awful looking female head sculpts will be a welcome change on the table

The sisters heads are just 3d previews of something coming next year. So ho hum. Blackstone fortress is just a name, we already knew there was a game coming featuring a Rogue Trader. Its neat they gave it a name other than Rogue Trader. But there was no actual news. I guess tiny little tidbits get some people excited. I'll get excited when I see some models I like.

Overall pretty disappointing. Only real thing of substance that was new-new was the potential for SoB in the 2018 Chapter Approved.

Yeah, ork vehicles finally moving into the 21st century, slaanesh daemon reboot and 40K warhammer quest is definitely a whole lot of nothing. (plus the little things like updates on sisters and realizing that people actually want transfer sheets)




Seriously, though, the 40k stuff is far more interesting than rehashing the sigmar starter box for shadespire, or a diorama sculpt for LotR.

Spoiler:

A daemon game for AOS?

AND YES I MISSED YOU GLORIOUS SLAANESH PLEASE GRACE US WITH A PROPER RELEASE!

Curtesy of Vince from warhammer weekly who was at the seminar. The realm of chaos thing is a new box set which is useable for both systems. It will contain multiple new sculpts for both Khorne and Slaanesh. It is coming out “sooner than you think” . So will probably come out in 2018.
40k quest will have new chaos marines, new ratling snipers and many one off sculpts that have been in the lore but never had minis before .

That all sounds pretty exciting to me.

Edit Pipin can be removed from shadowfax and set up seperately.

New production facility will be completed in 2019.

We saw most of the ork stuff already, even the war boss was more or less known. Shadespire is boring af, and who cares about LoTR?

Where was Fulgrim? Russ or Vulkan? GSC codex? Titanicus Xenos factions? Eldar Pastic stuff?

*crickets*

The blackstone fortress is not the rogue trader kill team box. Supposedly it'll have new chaos marines.

We now know there are two games featuring Rogue Traders actually, the Kill Team Rogue Trader in September, Blackstone Fortress...sometime later?

No, not Ratlings! I already ordered all my bits for my conversions! Now I’ll be tempted to use the official models and these bits will sit idle forever!

I will admit that I am... for the most part reasonably happy that a few other factions are getting new stuff! Yay for CSM and the Orks... but am a bit miffed by the lack of any mention of Eldar stuff... like at all. I suppose the existence of artwork for Vect should tide me over...

But maybe I'm just bitter and grumpy.

Not a fan as I think the "haircut" is part of the uniform. Where were the non-aweful looking female head sculpts.

But the ork Vehicles are not news. They have been showing pictures for weeks. Sisters releasing will be news. Sisters 3d previews is not. The demon and blackstone stuff is just a teaser. Some of us don't fall for that particular sales gimmick. Until there are details and pictures its just 'hey, hey, i'm going to tell you a secret, but not yet'.

Orks are gonna receive so many new models... I hope you'll enjoy them, lads, you deserve it!

I'm certainly hoping they have 'additional character' options later for more than the Rogue Traders, maybe add in some Marines and such so friends can bring over their favorite Kill-Team guy and join in the fun of stalking the corridors!

Whoo! Warhammer quest was a pretty big hit, and a 40k version seems pretty good as well.

Lots of good stuff here that I certainly enjoy that's for sure. New Shadespire season with the addition of magic and the like should help shake things up.

New Ork models/game, Sisters news, Slaanesh release and 40k getting a version of one of the most popular GW games ever, heralding the release of new Chaos Marine plastics. Yeah, fething boring...
