So guys, who do you think will win that campaign, and why Stormcasts?

Hm, literal day after payday. Couldn't be better.

Hardly a global campaign when its only for Stormcast and Skaven players. GW haven't really thought this one through at all, much like everything they do these days...

Huh? Theyre just repeating the Oghram campaign, but now for AoS. The winner gets to see their 2nd waves earlier.

As the Stormcast and Skaven battle inside the city, other factions will take their chance to seize power in the area. You will be able to enter battle results between Order and all other factions at the same site.

It's more than just the 2 sides, but it looks like only the codes will be counted towards the campaign for the reveals/prize drawings.

If it's like the 40K version, you just report your win for which side you choose but play any army.

I am keen to see both sides so I will be happy with whoever wins.

And I'd remind people that TYRANIDS won the last one of these they did and that was against the Marines, who are GW's big golden shiny sells the most army.

So by all means Skaven have a good chance

Or, just exactly because nids won last time, now there will be the Sigmarines who are the champions

Not sure if it's coincidence or someone being funny, but the actual release date is the 13th

That's neat.

Good to hear they are streamlining the Lumineth though I am concerned that it says that the army is going to rely more heavily on using Vanari and Temple units together. I personally hate the Temple units but love the Vanari.

I'm a big fan of the temple units and the Vanari units, but am definitely disappointed that they're trying to mash everything together. It feels too much like the designers are trying to mimic the Eldar setup.

If I wanted to play Eldar, I'd play Eldar.

They're ideal models to kitbash with the Eldar range.

Damn, sudden translocation is going to have the siblings bouncing all over the table.

It's been torture waiting for them to do the faction focus for one of the armies I play (sylvaneth, soulblight, slaves to darkness). It feels like I'm being mocked at this point

I feel ya. I have a Kruleboyz army and am waiting with bated breath to see if they have fun rules or not. Luckily my other army is Stormcast and so I've already had their rules.

For Kuleboyz, useable rules that make it feel like you have a chance would be nice.
They were woeful in 3rd edition, even with multiple points drops.

I know it was just a typo, but I kind of want to make a force or Kruleboyz with sunglasses and surf boards and such to name them Kuleboyz. That would be fun.

New rats leak

That that is super cool!

Oh, that's the guy on the back of the rulebook, neat. So he's either a character or some sort of super rat ogor?

My first thought was it could be a new duel kit which also serves as the foundation for a new Boneripper, but the Thanquol And Boneripper kit is already plastic and fairly modern.

Though it would be good to see a focus on some named Skaven heroes and the like. Thanquol hasn't even faced off against Gotrek yet!

To be honest, Thanquol himself has only faced off against Gotrek once, in Elfslayer.

His reaction to discovering Gotrek and Felix have no idea who he is, and their repeated foiling of his plan has indeed always been a matter of bad luck is superb,

Oh true, facing off doens't meant Gotrek and him have to fight, but Gotrek should be foiling some grand scheme that Thanquol has put into motion.

New Rat Ogre could be some Hero allowing for pure Rat Ogres army?

Very cool! Hopefully we see more reveals soon.
