I am in the same camp. I do not care about the AoS but some minis are very useful for the variety of mini agnostic fantasy games.

I'm the other side of that coin. I'll find a use for almost all of the Chaos Cultist stuff that was previewed yesterday for various AoS chaotic projects.

A whole Skaven mini.

Good start.

Deathmaster is cool but hopefully there are more new skaven.

And Skaven battletome confirmed.

There's a book!

Ha ha after all that deliberation on updated/new models there's just the usual hero and book, again.

Ooh, good. Glad that in a fantastical fantasy setting with multiple planes of existence, we're still using the same tired old trope that 'X can't possibly exist'


I believe the feet and masonry were a rumor engine that people were guessing for cursed city.

Ouch. Just an assassin character and battletome? This model line is _rotting_.
I'm amused by Eddie's enthusiasm for Eshin, when its still the old monkey rat models and a handful of surviving metal gutter runners.

On the bright side it's not paywalled inside a giant battle box that keeps it off the individual market for another 6 months.

Couldn’t even get some new art for the cover.

I'm surprised that AoS is persisting with the "Ratmen aren't real!" thing.

One small gripe.

Would it have killed them to change out the Ultramarine and IF banners for AoS banners...for the AoS show?

So no new Gutter Runners?

Yeah, its really, really dumb.



Looks like sylvaneth are getting a real release, though.

Mostly not my cup of tea, but I may totally steal the Lady of Vines for something. She's rather nice.


Tactical plaguebearer is an interesting choice to stand on.

Drycha, eat your heart out!

FFS now I have to get some Sylvaneth....

Yeah that’s more like it. Always quite liked Sylvaneth.

Lady of Vines finally gets a model - very happy

Very cool model as well.

Don't think I'd have any use for her, but it's really nice.

I am not sure if I like or not the new tree lady.

My Skaven loving friends...my heart felt commiseration. That is a painful kick in the nuts...

Same, couldn't care less for 40K. But i'm loving all the new trees.

Frankly, armies like Sylvaneth and Fyreslayers need more attention than rats. Rat models are mostly very good, even if they are a bit old.

Wow, flying ones are beautiful!

Symbiotic bugs to let the treepeople fly is interesting

Yeah, that is a bit weird.

Well Fyreslayers didn’t get any attention either, so it would have been nice if the rats had. The newer Skaven models are very good, anything old doesn’t hold up, and a lot of it is old.

The big bug riders are cute.

It was on the Arch-Revenant when they first appeared.

Well that's the bug leg rumor engine solved not a Jabber after all
