yukishiro1 Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 Ooph. Not even Idoneth and <Dwarf> tomes, just yet another double box. At least this one has more than 2 new models I guess, though I gotta be honest, those spectres with crossbows...I dunno. I wonder if there's some big problem getting books shipped from China or something, seems really weird to be teasing a new double box before you even reveal the tomes for the last one. Sweet Eldar Corsair, tbf. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just missed the Nighthaunt reveal though. I’m annoyed they only showed the one. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matrindur Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 Interestingly it says Pre-order now for the new boxset so it shouldn't be long until it gets released. On the other hand it hasn't been long since the Fury of the Deep set. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Still-young Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 One Corsair and no Necromunda models. I’m usually fine with these previews but that was pretty disappointing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only other announced thing is that Eldar/Chaos box, really. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yukishiro1 Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 Wow, talk about overhyping a reveal. Everything varies from fine to great, don't get me wrong...but this was billed as " seismic changes" and it's anything but that. Even the Eldar stuff is just a refresh, and lots of it has already been shown. Nothing "big" here for any GW system, AOS or otherwise, except maybe the Necromunda thing (which is just a piece of artwork). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boyadventurer Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 That Corsair looks so good. Kharadreth Overlords anyone? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
angrycontra Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 Well that was disappointing. I do like the new nighthaunt units (particularly the crossbowmen) and if there's one thing that I take away from this: No dwarf soup announced. The hope for more dedicated fyreslayer release still remains. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shinros Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 (edited) People need to understand not to buy into the hype, keep your expectations low, that way you're never disappointed. I got tired of being baited ages ago. So when it comes to previews they just like to pad out a whole hour usually and do like... four previews and one extra hint at the end that barely shows anything. That's been their thing for awhile now. Edited January 28, 2022 by shinros 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really would have liked to see a tome teaser if anything, or a bit of narrative stuff even if small. Solid box for Nighthaunt though! Will be very popular for sure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aleser Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 Everyone expeted just 2 tomes but we got 2 heroes and new unit and we got dissapointed 😅 2 2 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kronos Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 (edited) Waking up at 6 was most definitely worth it just to see this beaut revealed. Detailed Forgeworld monster are very much my hobby passion (The wife still asleep and the dog doesn’t understand my frantic joy). On the flip side, these Battle boxes are killing the hobby for me. I honestly zone out when I see one now no matter how cool the characters. Edited January 28, 2022 by Kronos 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baron Klatz Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 I’m gonna Anvil of Apotheosis this guy so hard into a NightHaunt Chamon leader for the crossbows. Metal Ghost gunner leading the shooty boo bois. 😍 Someone pointed out the crossbows are basically just grimghasts with their hoods pulled back to reveal the helmets and I really like that detail. NightHaunt are basically militia ripped up from the countless afterlifes beneath Shyish that invaded the realms. Going from scythes to crossbows would be a fitting transition for ill-trained murderers that need weapons low in skill but high in lethality. Also cool the box connects with the story of the fall of Anvilgard. Love me some lore continuation. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're 6 months into 3rd edition and we've gotten three, with no idea of when we'll finally get another book. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greasygeek Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 So that box is litterally tailored for my needs. Beside the new ghosts Iv’e been wanting to get more bladegheists and Myrmourns anyway. And to add stuff on top of that one of my friends loves the DOK so this is an instabuy💪 Still pretty weird that there was no mention if any kind of tomes for neither Deepkin, nor Fyreslayers or Nighthaunts 🤔 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I watch every preview, I know what to expect, but 1 model for kill team and 1 small piece of art for Necromunda is even less than I was expecting.

edmc78 Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 We saw a Khaderon ship in the hype shillouettes earlier in the week. Why? Maybe something was pulled … Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boyadventurer Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 For anyone keeping count, the only things left from the new years vid is the Chaos Knight, Tyranid, and the guy that very much seems to be part of the new Necromunda expansion. So there's really nothing on the horizon after the box. Did any of the rumours hint anything near a DoK vs NH box? I remember NH tome was mentioned, but certainly don't remember any hints towards a new unit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kronos Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 Nope. Nothing, zilch. Most curious as to why they chose a Kharadron ship as a silhouette for their countdown of days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CDM Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 Remember when previews used to blow your mind! It's been a good year or so now but never that much get reaveled like the old days. I'm assuming it's just because they're more previews now 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
