The pose on that Slaneesh model is fantastic. It has that whole throwing the doors wide open and make a fashionably late entrance to the debutant ball, feel.

Actually might give Warcry a try.

It's Warhammer. Skulls are as open domain as it gets.

But if you want to feel better about it, just do as I do and make your Slaaneshis take visual cues from Khorne. I'm sure he won't mind his arch-enemy wear his regalia. I'm sure that won't upset him. It's all in good fun, after all, and who loves fun more than Khorne?

I was honestly surprised there was so much. Feels very un-GW to have so many different reveals.

I kept scrolling and scrolling through the article, increasingly worried there wouldn't be Slaanesh stuff.

That Keeper of Secrets and the new Slaanesh models are not only some of the best models GW ever made but are some of the best models in the entire miniatures gaming industry. Bravo.

The Fifty Sprues/Shades of Grey is a preliminary announcement for a direct competitor to TAP's Quick Shade line. Honestly, unless GW's is somehow cheaper, it'll largely be irrelevant (other than to get more people on the rapid paint systems)

If GW do their own equivalent, it will definitely be superior to the Army Painter Quickshade as it'll be water-soluble and not require white spirit to clean your brush.

I agree that a dip isn't really necessary when you can just block in your colors and then wash with Agrax, etc.

Not an exploding cannon, but one that fired prematurely as he was still loading it.

But back on topic..

Loved the stuff shown so far. Not much that's my cuppa, but still awesome to see them put out this stuff in the near future.

I think the thing I'm most chuffed about is probably the movement trays for 40k, yay..? That and more war zone books, loved the first instalment of the Vigilus campaign, so it'll be interesting to see what they'll tackle and introduce next.

Wow, great reveals this Adepticon. I'm so happy to see my favorite of the four Chaos Gods is finally getting some attention. I'm blown away by the Keeper of Secrets. It's the perfect blend of the classic androgyny and sensuous lady, while also paying great homage to the classic cow-like Keeper of Secrets. The cow-like sensuality and statuesque pose evokes Baphomet for me, which is perfect for the God of Excess.

The Daemon Prince master blaster is a very cool concept and I love the contrast between the serious and purposeful Daemon Prince and the playful and mischievous herald. The Masque is great, and I especially love how her legs have a kind of fleshy lingerie look to them. The big mirror is also very cool. I fervently disagree with detractors of the Daemonettes' faces. I think they look very eerie and almost childlike. It's deeply unsettling and, I think it's great. The spells don't really interest me, as they usually don't, but that giant Daemonette face would make for an interesting conversion piece for a Knight or Chaos Titan.

Overall this makes me want to play Slaaneshi Daemons and for that, I don't like it.

The Warcry stuff is great and it's a pleasure to see the first plastic Chaos Dwarf. The Iron Golems in particular would make a great basis for a gang of Necromunda pit slave gladiators, as well. I'm excited to see how the other factions look. As I mentioned in a previous thread, I love the now-confirmed-to-be-Furies. They visually remind me of something out of Dark Souls. The Raptoryx is weird, but not necessarily in a bad way. I'd like to see other angles.

I couldn't care less about the push to "streamline" Apocalypse. Bleh.

Excited to see if future Warzones will be as fleshed out as Vigilus. I do hope that one of the future warzones features a Xenos race rather than another faction of Chaos. I'm happy Chaos is getting so much love but I'd really like to see the Orks get a Warzone with a new Ghaz model or Necrons to come in with some new stuff and possibly get a Silent King model. I wouldn't complain about a Knight-sized Swarmlord, either.

My thought on the "50 Shades of Gray" video is that it's not about a pre-painted line or an airbrush or a prelude to April Fools but that they are entirely moving away from gray plastic. We've already seen that in the newer AoS and 40K intro sets and, moreso, in the Kill Team sets.

They’ve already said it isn’t that. It’s a painting tool of some kind.

Exactly. And I fail to see why tide of red colored plastic would be any better than grey one. In fact, it would be worst

The reveal itself says to help painting.
So it never was going to be plastic colours.
Good they’ve clarified I guess as people seemed confused, but shouldn’t have been necessary.

I personally hope it isn’t an airbrush. As I don’t use one so it wouldn’t help me.
(I know it’s probably better results. But the setting it up and cleaning the parts out and all that. Plus lack of a place to use one in my case, just means it wouldn’t be as useful for me).

I await the reveal and hope it’s something cool I can make use of, that also speeds up my painting

In the other thread, GW isntragram says its not. its a tool.

80% sure its an siphon airbrush with special pot mounts for standard gw paint pots.

10% on new range of spray primers

5% on dip

5% on all of the above.

It is my great hope for Apocalypse that it means over time GW can move 40k back to company level and focus on making it work great at that level, rather than a super flexible set of rules that can scale up or down. The idea is that we would now have separate systems to scale the game up or down (Apocalypse and Kill Team, respectively) so 40k doesn't have to try and shoehorn in superheavies or fliers or things like that which never really fit the company scale of the game.

Of course, the chances of this happening is close to zero as people would just cry about their hobby being limited.

That sounds pretty ideal to me. No game can be all things to all people, so having several different ways to play with our toys seems like a good idea.

With all the Kill Team expansions I've been wondering if they might come at the older scale of 40k in the form of official Combat Patrol rules?
