Nice break from the constant 40K spam.

Also those are fantastic helmets.

**Mad Doc Grotsnik**

I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again.

Whatever you think of AoS as a game? It’s Chaos Armies have really run with the Oldhammer Realm of Chaos look.

**Overread**

OOhhhhh really nice!

**Inquisitor Gideon**

The more i look at this, the more i think if they made a unit that looked like it i'd drop for a full army.

**Shakalooloo**

I don't like the fact that it seems they've lost their neck, like the weight of that helmet has just crushed their head down into their collarbone.

Only if you assume the eyes are the bottom gaps and not the top

**Platuan4th**

That's just a Jaffa, guys.

Not until we get the 40K version with the laser staff

That's just lasguns and if you don't believe me, look at the Mordheim Amazon Warband, Lizardmen, and Albion campaign Magic Items where what are very clearly Lasguns are described as "staves".

I'm assuming that they're eyes all the way down. And not much point in having so many if your ability to turn your head mirrors that of Michael Keaton Batman.

**usernamesareannoying**

Where we're going, we won't need eyes to see!

They seem to have enough space in those helmets to fit a proportional human, judging by the visible upper body structure.

extra holes are better for airflow and breathing

Yet they fit very snuggly with those shoulder-pads. No head-turning allowed.

**Dysartes**

But this is a Slaanesi model - isn't the forbidden meant to be what they prefer?

It's just a great bascinet in fantasy form.

**flaherty**

That Battleforce looks great, but when I priced it out, it barely offers any savings over the current Spearhead + Sigvald and the Painbringers. If they're going to keep up the pace of YOLO boxes, they need to stuff in an extra unit and hero model.

Yeah, a bit clumsy for an otherwise athletic and agile Slaaneshi fighter.

**Inquisitor Gideon**

Little bit of Cogfort action:

The new realm for the GHB is going to be Aqshy and I'm afraid I don't much like the look of the new mechanic for the next year. At least I play factions without a meta resource of their own, I can't imagine playing like Lumineth or Helsmiths and keeping track of Command Points, my own stuff, and Fury Level/Rage Dice.

**Inquisitor Gideon**

They look interesting, a bit more flavourful than the current set.

I just wish they'd remember there are realms other than Ghyran and Aqshy.

Don't say that, they'll send us back to Ghur again...

(Please give me an Ulgu edition)

I'm sure we'll get 1.5 editions of nothing but Ulgu the moment GW puts out Malerion Elves.

Nah, they'll just have him attack some Chaos bastion in Aqshy, if only to pay lip service to Sigmar. BUT! During an end-of-edition narrative book, he'll make a diversion to visit his mom.

**Inquisitor Gideon**

FYI it looks like the next Hachette spearhead is the Seraphon one. Saurus warriors are showing up on Forbidden Planet now. Annoyingly, but not unsurprisingly split into two mags.

**aku-chan**

Boooo! At least we're getting the one Spearhead I wasn't interested in out the way early, hopefully it's Seraphon and another one, not just 2 months of lizardy guys.

**Inquisitor Gideon**

It's only a small Spearhead. Warriors, Kroxigors and a Carnosaur. Presumably it'll be one mag for the Krox and two for the Carnosaur.

**Vorian**

This place is predicting 2 for the Krox too.

Rather disappointing if it's all going to be 2 issues for everything decent.

**Lord Damocles**

Combat Patrol has been two issues for basically everything where the sprues can be split.
