The talk about Gnashtoof cavalry or a Hobgrot hero seemed to have been based on wishful thinking. I don't know what's up with the Gutrippa-looking boy with the vulture. I think he is still not clearly identified, but I might be wrong. i remember it from Grimdark live when they leak Dominon had a source that said a wolf rider like unit was somewhere in the release. or course they got everything right on Dominon except for that one part with the Hobgoblin esque wolf rider Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they have 2 or 3 kits in their back pocket, it helps flesh out a fuller release in a year or two? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hobgoblin where pretty intergral to the Chaos dwarf in the army roster and lore (being that they need hobgoblins to boaster their millitary number since the Dawi-Zharr where few in number and the Hobgoblins needed the chaos dwarfs protection from other greenskinz since they are hated by every species of them). In AoS, there doesn't seem to be the same extreme hostility between them and the other Greenskinz races and they are part of the Kruleboyz klaw being in the" Light Finga" group. hypothetically, i would assume that any new Hobgrot unit that are release in a new chaos dwarf army, would also be fieldable in a Kruleboyz army. but with GW it hard to say what they want to do. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ossiarchs missing out on 2020 surprised me considering they were a late 2019 release. I'd be shocked if they didn't get one this year. I could see Hedonites getting one. If we go by the amount of times they show up in sales, their new models don't sell too well and they're probably old enough now (start of 2021) to justify including them. I think we'll see an Ironjawz set, but that's based on nothing but "convince Kruelboyz starters to expand their Warclans." Wave 1 Lumineth's probably old enough now to see a box too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Higolx Posted November 15, 2021 Share Posted November 15, 2021 Ngl I not smart enough in the business department to deal with stocks and such but I would assume theres more to stocks. Like, theres a new wave of covid reaching europe and iirc its hitting the uk somewhat hard, theres also that lack of papper still going on. Heck, maybe even COP26 could have affected it because plastic toys arent exaclty the greenest of business and since they said they want to reduce the use of fossil fuel it could have affected all petroleum related markets. I just think its not the best to just post a pic of a stock graph and think that definitelly says something without considering other factors. Couls this mean warhammer is selling poorly? Yes. Could it mean that we just arent "hype" anymore and warhammer is going back to normal levels as we leave lockdowns? Could also be true. Could this be something completely different affecting stock values? Also possible. 10 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doko Posted November 15, 2021 Share Posted November 15, 2021 Fyreslayers never have got any battleforce,dual army,reinforcement,skirmish,warcry etc etc ANY bundle ever never in his history( i think EVERY army in aos have got one at any moment) so maybe they deserve this battleforce and luckily this bring many new players and makes the faction more popular and so gw gonna release more units for them in the future. Also vampires seems a great option for death as all the others death have got any bundle box allready 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More likely it's because they have an extremely limited model pool. x4 Foot Hero blisters (Runemaster, Battlesmith, Berzerker, Doomseeker) x1 Monster kit (Runefather, Runeson, Runesmith) x1 Battleline kit (Vulkites) x1 Hearthguard kit (Aurics/Berzerkers) The Magmadroth and Vulkites already come packed together. That leaves... one kit and a selection of heroes. Maybe they could buck the norm and include the Pizza Oven faction terrain and Endless Spells in, but then you're making it a starter set than excludes 99% of existing Fyreslayer players. If they do get a Battleforce I imagine it'll look something like this: x1 Magmadroth x1 Vulkite x1 Battlesmith x1 Runemaster or Berzerker or Doomseeker x2 Hearthguard In total that's £155 of stuff at RRP. Assuming Battleforces are still £125 that's a £30 saving and roughly what you'd expect for these sets.

I really hope we get Fyreslayer updates this Edition, at the moment they are quite one dimensional, model wise but the incredible thing about AOS is its limitless potential. Start adding more Armoured Duardin, switch it up with Unarmed Brawler Rage fueled Duardin, more monsters, Magmadroth Cavlary and other beast pulled chariots, a Magma Tortoise with a Howdah full of Bezerkers. Hell just add female Duardin!! 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neverchosen Posted November 15, 2021 Share Posted November 15, 2021 (edited) I still think the narrative is leaning towards Duardin soup. I am still hoping that we get an update on the classical dwarf theme with a female/valkyrie army that worships Valaya. I think they'd include a unit of infantry (winged spears and round sheilds), Flying cavalry (Ranged and Melee), Artillery Piece and a Few Heroes. Overall I could see it being a small subfaction and then they could hopefully increase the number of the other Duardin factions by a unit or two. As for the cavalry I want them to be adorable winged ponies because for all the creativity of AOS I want some more fun things. As for my top pick for the other Duardin Subfactions: Fyerslayer: Magmadroth Chariot Dispossesed: Mechanical Golem Kharadron: Piloted Mech Behemoth for Close Combat (Thinking of Escaflowne here) Edited November 15, 2021 by Neverchosen 5 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
