The slave to darkness double gang box existed, and you should be buying that box instead of the single gang box, cards and stat are literally everywhere.

I wasn't actually trying to buy them. I was just thinking while Adam and Eddie were talking that the fluff sounded similar and couldn't remember the gang name. I looked for the store page first and couldn't find it; and then the search I ran turned up the expunged page, so I was curious.
Good to know they weren't ditched while I wasn't looking (they're one of my favorites of the originals, and the first couple expansions)

Followers of Hashut! Well, human followers of Hashut. Is someone trying to rile up Chorf fans?
The models are ok. With the whole bull theme I might add/ally some to the Bullgor list I have planned from Twisted Catacombs/Bestiarum Miniatures stuff to give the cows some scale comparisons. But human followers of Hashut and not a dwarf in sight
The centaur thingy is a very nice model, will be stupidly expensive I guess, but I'm tempted.

They rotated out, just like the wabands in WU, lets hope the models don't go poof like the WU in later year.
Kinda suck for them because the direction going forward is new warband instead of 2.0 of the bands, which some warbands like Iron Golem desperately need to compete with the ever expanding AoS warbands.

Iron Golems are still around, their culture is similar but of a different nuance since they exalt in the forging of weapons & armour; to then it is only about the product and any industry that results is incidental. The Horns seem much more about the process than the result. A subtle difference to be sure, but that is kind of the point.
The Slaves to Darkness version is still on the US web store.

Pretty sparse on details for warcry. No release date set (but likely in fall like the last 3 years), not much said about details of rules changes, other than biggest update since it was originally released) which leads me to believe this likely isnt 2.0, but more like the other boxes with terrain specific rules, but a bit more intense for the new realm of ghur.
So really, besides the new logo, new setting, and the centaurian, thats about all the news we got and must fill in between the lines.

They could just be tribesmen/surfs on the periphery of greater Chaos duardin nations that escaped or seek adventure over laboring for their short overlords. They are pretty well outfitted compared to the other Warcry cultists, but even their chaff are barefoot and seemly armed with farming tools.
I really like the bits of armor and other aesthetics that could hint to more heavily armored Chaos dwarves, much like Spire Tyrands have some looted/fashioned-after bits of Chaos Warrior look to them. Hopefully these models do more than just tease chorfs in AoS, because I am very interested in AoS chorfs if this is just a taste of what they might look like.

They literally said that the Horns of Hashut are the scouts for the Legions of Hashut.
The Horns of Hashut are one such warband. These mortal followers of the god Hashut venture out in front of his all-conquering legions, seeking lands worthy of domination. They’re the vanguard of devastation and despair in a brutal machinery of endless war… and they have some very impressive hats.

I'm a huge fan of the Horns and the Centaurion, I think they are both fantastic.
I'm also excited to see what Warcry in Ghur will entail. I just hope this isn't Warcry 2.0 and that there are changes to the core rules. If it's new environments/missions/etc. bring it on!

Rather than just going "Well ackchyually!" and making excuses for/defending everything GW does can you please accept that some people might be annoyed that GW is finally giving attention to the legions of Hashut, but made them humans rather than AoS Chaos Dwarfs? Do you think you have the capacity for such an act?

First step is iggy. Failing that, the second step is deletion of account.
The mods permit and encourage the idiocy, and when engaged, youre the one who gets moderated.
I am a firm believer that the only way to win is to not play the game. Ive already contacted Legoburner about deletion of my own account. He is kind enough to await verification of intent.

Some of which which may surprise you….
Skaven Warcry warband confirmed!
Tomb Kings would surprise me. Needless to say, I doubt GW would oblige.
Other than that, eh? If we're out of the Eightpoints the only surprise I can think of is new stuff. Anything already in AoS has reason and ways to be there. So perhaps Malerion elves finally make their appearance or Khurnoth elves get more models after the Underworlds warband.
Or Fimir.

And i'm still waiting for the Conan warband separate release.
Me, too. I wasn't keen on the spider guys at all. The terrain in the box is cool, and so are the barbarians, but the box price stopped me. Post price increase, even more so.

I totally understand some disappointment but I hope that what we’re getting is a Legions of Hashut army that contains not just chaos dwarfs, but also Horns of Hashut, hobgrotz, those bull centaur fellas and more.

Not sure how good the odds of that are in the foreseeable future. We know the Horns are in the Slaves to Darkness battletome slated for the end of the year. Is there any instance of the same unit featuring in multiple battletomes?

Same. But as odd as it seems, I actually kind of like how the Hashut faction might end up mixed-species. It would fit the lore 9I know of) that the Chorfs were never numerous and used a lot of slave chaff (extended to mercenaries and tributary peoples as well?).
It would do what cities of Sigmar purported to do, but better lol.

I mostly agree with your stance, up until your last sentence.
You seem to think me stating my opinion is to be taken as an attack directed against you judging by that parting remark.
Youve stated that it's less important about what you say, than who you are. Thats the very definition of ad hominem.
Judging by what I've seen you contribute, thats on brand for Captain Argument from Authority. One good turn deserves another.
Not that this matters much to me, or anyone else obviously. Its that sort of blinkered ignorance that goes unmoderated which gives the reputation that precedes this site. Your comment wont be moderated, but this one certainly will be, which illustrates merely one problem.
