I mean, you could buy them, but that actually costs money. David is pretty exuberant about the fluff and gives thorough coverage of it. Really hard not to recommend the podcast if you aren't looking for competitive AoS. Those are really good and I recently revisited them but like almost all podcasts the first ~50 minutes is people talking about their hobby and gaming which is annoying but at least Garage hammer gives you the times so you can skip it.

Captain Marius Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 Review of Blightwar i just read say the only Allegiance Ability rules in the book are the Stormcast and Nurgle battle traits. No command traits, artefacts, spells or prayers. I am a bit frustrated by this release - its basically a tease of new models, rules and fluff without any actual meat. Good if you want all the models but frankly it feels like filler in between primaris releases (6th different box with intercessors in goes up for preorder on saturday...)

Well, It's probably because the will release an actual Nurgle Battletome. Which would be a lot better IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Marius Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 It looks like contextually the battle trait is just to use with the scenarios on blightwar. I seriously hope they put out a battletome soon to just get nurgle done!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So we can some cool mixed deathlords formations like the everchosen did where they had nurgle, khorne, slanessh, tzeentch formations in it for their mortals before DoT and BoK.

bsharitt Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 Hrm, that new death models looks nice. Even thought he's described as a herald of nagash and might be Deathlords, he's looking pretty ghostly, so I'm hoping for Nighthaunt. Maybe that whole sub faction will get some love, and maybe at least one more unit to break up the hexwraith/spirit host/hexwraith/sprirt host/etc monotony of their army.

angrycontra Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 (edited) My hope is that this new death faction will have multiple keywords that would allow playing some of its models across different death factions (like the wraith shown there would certainly fit night haunt) kinda like how stormfiends are both skyre and moulder.

Let the guessing begin. The Order one will probably be Stormcast. For Destruction I would lean Ironjawz. Chaos could be about anything but I am going to say Skaven, because that is what I want.

Per WarhammerWeekly, GW confirmed that he's Nighthaunt - the live show just ended on Youtube, but I strongly recommend you watch it as Vince shared a lot more info than what is available on the GW community website... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

someone2040 Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 Love the look of the new Undead model, especially if it's going to slot into Nighthaunt as well. Which is interesting, because Jervis said on an interview that they chose the allegiances in the GHB on factions they don't think they're going to be getting around too anytime soon. So maybe this character is both a Deathlord and Nighthaunt? Also cool to hear that all 4 Grand Alliances are going to get a new hero. Although, seems inevitable that it'll probably be plagued by posterboy syndrome (Stormcast, Ironjawz and some flavour of Chaos god that's not Slaanesh). I'd really love for GW to do more than 1 for each alliance, like kick off the campaign with say 8-12 new clampack/small box hero kits. Still, more models are only a good thing, and can't wait to see the next step in the AoS narrative. Lastly Ironjawz. Colour me not impressed. To me, they just look like the regular Ardboyz kit with a few different heads and slightly different poses. Unlike the other warbands, nothing really screams at me as an amazing model that's really different to the existing AoS kits. Stormcast had female stormcast and the leader which has a cool pose, the Bloodreavers are hairy and cool, and the Skeletons are dynamic compared to the AoS ones. Maybe they just suffer a bit because the current Ardboyz kit is already somewhat dynamic (Compared to many old Fantasy kits anyway, and the bane of everyone putting them on square bases).

Davariel Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 Death. Death! DEATH!!!! Just so much awesome right now. Especially love how that guy blends the aesthetics of multiple death factions together. A hint of things to come, perhaps? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chikout Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 Took a couple of pics of the ardboyz. The boss is wearing a cloak. Is that a first for a GW ork? I especially like the guy in the mask. If the price is reasonable, I will buy every single Shadespire warband. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spiky Norman Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 That Rumour Engine picture of the tentacle is apparently not Cthulhu Elves, as it's features as a token, crawling out from a manhole, in Necromunda in the new video they put out. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
