Dark Elf boot?

I'm going with Wanderers. It looks really similar to the boots the Wild Riders have.


The Wild Riders don't have the toecap, but there's also no mounted characters for Wanderers anymore...so maybe it's a Nomad Prince on Steed of Kurnous?

Doesn't look to be Cavalry to me - there's stuff modelled under the foot.

I'm thinking one of the unrevealed Warbands for WarCry myself. That's a proper winkle picker, if you catch my drift.

I'm going for Klingons!

See, the only reason I mention a 'mounted' one is that Wild Riders have been the only thing with them so far.

I could see a Priest of Kurnoth kit ala the Carnosaur/Ghoul King, with a biiiiig Elk and a mounted/dismounted build.

Slaanesh mortals?

Deamon prince has this kind of toecap design...
(granted armored but still...)

Either elven or Slaanesh. I don’t see how that could be anything else.

Elf team for blood bowl? Its the kind of spikey boot I'd expect for BB, and there are a lot of elf teams

I expect something for the new season of Shadespire

Underworlds is the 'range' name.
Shadespire was the name of the first season, Nightvault was the second, and Beastgrave is the third.

We saw the silhouettes and I guess it's entirely possible but I hope it's a hero kit for the Wanderers. Otherwise the Free Cities thing is gonna hurt.

We have all three Elf teams. Wood Elves just came out not long ago.

Ooh, maybe it's Settra's new boots? TK , but with footwear for that AoS high-fantasy spin!

Eh? There are at least 4 to my knowledge. High, dark, wood and pro elves (which is like the first one but visually distinct, and a few position shuffles). Maybe they got canned in the revision, but they certainly used to exist.

Dont know why, but the boot look to elaborate to be warcry. Most gangs there dont even get shoes.
Looks pretty sinister though.

Clown Warband with fancy shoes?!

Exodites? Toe=Dino-kicking spur?

?? It literally looks nothing like that boot, lol. Not even a slight resemblance.

Bright wizard? Would fit with the potential Hierophant candle tombstone thing.

Gotta agree.
The first thing I thought when looking at the two pictures was that they are nothing alike.
Material maybe. As in both made of leather, sure.
But the straps, spikes, buckle things, studs. Lots going on.
The riders boot, literally plain. Completely plain.

Warhammer trek.... I'd play it!

Looks very Dark Elf or Slaanesh like. Not sure where we're seeing a resemblance to Wild Riders (ok, one person)?

If they did such teases I'd say a Star Player for Dark Elf Blood Bowl but that would be unprecedented and I doubt it. Maybe something for Underworlds or even Warcry (Shadow Elves)? Looks a bit too aggressive to come from the Light or even Wanderers side but who knows?

Ah, a reimagining of the old mordheim gang "Carnival of Chaos"!
That would actually be an awesome concept to have it still touring the mortal realms. Could fit with warcry or beastgrave. Weird, but not as scary as The Unbound.

This can't be a coincidence.

Maybe it's a redesigned Repentia boot after the 'trainer' furore...

Well, he was wrong in pretty much every guess so far (with especially hilarious instance where he insisted for months that picture that clearly shown reivers (due to, oh, only wrong armour, grenades, guns, melee weapons, helmets, and heads identical to plastic reiver kit) was somehow infiltrator squad instead even after dozen people corrected him) I'd say you're right, there is zero chance of it being anything even close to wanderers, this looks closer to a space marine boot than to old elf one

Oh, that is very good call, actually. One thing that puzzles me is why they would redo that kit, though, old mages are still pretty nice and characterful kit. Updating them to AoS aesthetic, perhaps?

For the record, the image that Irbis is taking potshots at me over is this one:


The one that literally shows Infiltrators and the Venomcrawler in it, before we had names for any of them.

It'd be cool. I'd really think that the Cubicle 7 art they just released for Soulbound on Monday would be more likely for any Battlemage redesigns:

Hmm. There's also the AFAIK unsolved (?) flaming brazier thingy from December which could fit on a bright wizard's staff. But why would they release a wizard, tho - free peoples band for Underworlds?

Agreed. That's just too close. Maybe not necessarily a new Bright Wizard, but definitely a caster along those lines.

They were one of the rumored warbands for Beastgrave...so maybe?

That Cubicle 7 art I posted is interesting, as most of the other art we've gotten has been 'based on the models'...maybe they're planning on releasing a Battlemage blister with a female instead of a male like the box has?

There is also the Fire-mage themed warband for war cry still to be shown...

I’ll be honest, if they made a “free people’s” unit that is the 5 characters from Vermintide, I’d buy it. And quickly.

Do we know what the Eldar looking ruin rumour was for yet ?
