bsharitt Posted April 28, 2019 Share Posted April 28, 2019 Even though I have a goblin army and no tree people, I think I like the Syvaneth guy a lot more than the new warboss. I'm not a huge fan of the overly dynamic posing of GW models of late or of the "off the ground, but sort of touchings something (at least there's no modeled smoke, water or "magic" those are especially bad). I'd definitely take the new warboss over the old fine cast version, but I think I still prefer the ForgeWorld version. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Still-young Posted April 28, 2019 Share Posted April 28, 2019 I’ve liked Sylvaneth since they came out and I’ve recently been tempted by Gloomspite. I like that it’s all ‘new’ models for both sides (I.e. no Dryads or standard Moonclan grots). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrJekyll325 Posted April 28, 2019 Share Posted April 28, 2019 Working on Ylthari's Guardians this weekends had already got me excited to build some Tree-Revenants, and this just pushes me over the top! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greasygeek Posted April 28, 2019 Share Posted April 28, 2019 (edited) Man I hope Waycry lets us pick warband from a ton of different factions. No way Im starting a Gloomspite army, but would make a warband without thinking twice. Same goes for FEC, Ironjawz, Khorne, Deathrattle, Deadwalkers and Nighthaunts. Never mind new miniatures, just make the rules for them. Edited April 28, 2019 by Greasygeek Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amysrevenge Posted April 28, 2019 Share Posted April 28, 2019 "Compendium units and factions are going to be officially removed from AoS in the next ruleset update." - Everyone on the internet in the period leading up to every ruleset update, all the way back to GHB1 Keep on saying it guys, one of these days it'll be right maybe. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aeryenn Posted April 28, 2019 Share Posted April 28, 2019 23 minutes ago, Greasygeek said: Think their gonna ve new rules for the tree revenants? Assuming Sylvaneth Battletome will be up next. If there is one Sylvaneth unit I wish them to fix, it's the Tree-Revenant. It's not durable, nor does it hit hard. It dies as soon as it reaches combat. It jas great skills and they can keep it fragile but increase its dmg to 2 per model or fix its to hit and to wound. As for the box - I already have 10 TR and don't think I need more but I always welcome more Kurnoth Hunters (have 9). New hero for Sylvaneth looks cool. Not super cool but I will add him gladly to my force of killer trees. I was already interested in Gloomspite Gitz especially in the squig models so this is just perfect. I'm gonna pre-order the box. It would be even better if it came together with a new Sylvaneth battletome release. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charleston Posted April 28, 2019 Share Posted April 28, 2019 The box is great what is actually a big issue as I simply can´t store any more army but it would be such an easy way to start the Gloomspite Gits, especially as I have 2 packs Fellwater Troggoth lying around which I really really want to build very badly I guess I have to sell some stuff soon.

novakai Posted April 28, 2019 Share Posted April 28, 2019 interesting thing to note, the Arch-revenant model has a Halberd, but the picture inside the Looncurse has it wielding a sword. maybe their finally adding weapon options back to hero units, since the Loonboss on Cave squig also has two weapon option on the current warscroll.

jaebird Posted April 28, 2019 Share Posted April 28, 2019 I'm rather glad I didn't pull the trigger on that second Sylvaneth SC box. The Gitz seem like a lot of fun to paint and a good way to play some small games with friends. I guess I should pre-order it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neffelo Posted April 28, 2019 Share Posted April 28, 2019 That Box seems like a great spot if you are collecting either army. Combine a few of the Sylvaneth halfs and their start collecting and you pretty much have a near complete army. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So it’s possible that it’s actually the insect clinging on its back and providing flight for him. pretty cool nature symbiotic relationship if that’s true. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is full-on speculation, but my semi-realistic wishlist for the contents would be: Sylvaneth Hero 2x5 Revenants 1x3 Kurnoths vs. Goblin Hero (probably loonboss on squig) 10 Hoppers/Bounders 12 Squig Herd 20 Grots Wow, I was almost correct on this one XD just missed it by a box of grots. Now I just hope that they make revenants actually worth fielding outside of battalion requirements. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeneralZero Posted April 28, 2019 Share Posted April 28, 2019 I don't see the grots on the community images. So, NO 20 grots Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
