Sith'ari Posted June 3, 2016 Share Posted June 3, 2016 *Need for massive Beetle model intensifies...* Yep! I'm getting really stoked for this release now, although I'm supposed to be saving for Star Wars Celebration in July - stupid first world problems! Have we heard anything new about the rumoured summer campaign yet? I'm hoping to have my free guild force ready to go by then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snoe Posted June 3, 2016 Share Posted June 3, 2016 If it is a dual kit for Alariell and the bug don't you guys think it will be like others we have seen? One name'd character, Alariell, and one generic hero/leader? Like the mega-boss on Maw-crusha. What then would the generic one be like? A super-charged branchwraith perhaps? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PJetski Posted June 3, 2016 Share Posted June 3, 2016 I think Alarielle will be the Order equivalent to Nagash/Archaon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gharak Posted June 3, 2016 Share Posted June 3, 2016 I really don't think these are new aelves. They're sylvaneth, forest spirits, one of the books mentions that dryads can shapeshift, they're not permanently in a tree like form. Personally I don't expect that any of the old world aelf races will be refreshed, what you are going to get is totally new factions with little resemblance to the old world factions. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hobgoblinclub Posted June 4, 2016 Share Posted June 4, 2016 Almost certainly. I think the debate over which high elf factions will be expanded may be pointless. It's new aelfs a-go-go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Alec Posted June 4, 2016 Share Posted June 4, 2016 Either way, we'll see soon enough. I feel like this is 100% Sylvaneth, rather than Wood Elves sneaking in through the back door. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mhsellwood Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 hey guys. Another picture that appears to be for the new Sylvaneth on War of Sigmar - link is https://war-of-sigmar.herokuapp.com/bloggings/860. Much better quality (to my mind) than the last couple, and I get the following from the picture: Alarielle appears to be the only time we see the beetle, so probably like Archaon or Nagash big beasty that is her mount, not a generic beast (although I would like to be wrong on this) The half aelf / half tree kit is in there so a new infantry kit, which appears to be a dual build with the half beasty / half tree thing A new monstrous tree kin monstrous infantry beasty, who appear to have a couple of weapon options including a bow A four armed thing??? Bottom left. Compared to the skeletons looks to be a monster kind of size, maybe swinging a sword, definitely looking rock hard. Excitement intensifying... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Malin Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 (edited) left side of the picture, below half-aelf with the sword, is it treeman wielding/aiming with bow? Edited June 6, 2016 by Malin 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stylus Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 Alarielle has one impressive beetle. I guess she's got a ticket to ride. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sete Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 Saving up for this release. Dunno if ill get the lady on the beetle tho. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Alec Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 That list looks mighty suspicious shane. I don't think this much salt is healthy for me. It's already missed a few beats. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daedalus81 Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 Especially since GW directly told us the handbook was coming in the summer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dez Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 Yeah I kept looking for the Handbook too! I also looked for a new Ork book after seeing CSM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Veterannoob Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 KABOOM! That's my wallet. If HH is Nuceria then I look fwd to the armies. Demon Angron finally? Naw, doubt it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ronin_cse Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 Keep in mind GW releases tend to be very fluid and they move them around a lot. We have seen plenty of release schedules like this in the past that haven't been accurate on timing, but have been accurate on actual releases. This could have also been written up before they decided to do the general's hand book. A Dark Angel's release would be seriously out of nowhere so if that actually happens this year I'd say the schedule was legit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Veterannoob Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 I really don't want to tread through Warseer but there was some hullabaloo over the weekend about a handbook having points in printed but you have to buy app separately, or something. Likely the usual speculation turn kookoo- bananas but I haven't seen an official statement from GW on this. Have you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would suggest that the reason we are not seeing Dryads or Treelords is basically because they want to showcase their new releases and encourage excitement around purchase of them, rather than already existing models. Given that both the Dryads and the Treelords were re packaged with round bases, and the cull of the Order Alliance left them around, and we have plenty of other artwork of them in current books, I don't think they are going anywhere. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Veterannoob Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 Yeah, the artwork since WFest has shown what looks like armored dryads and/or the treekin mid-size unit replacement, perhaps? Looks awesome, either way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Jabber Tzeentch Posted June 7, 2016 Author Share Posted June 7, 2016 The online campaign is confirmed for 11th July so the generals handbook should be around that time as expected. Interesting that the Keeper of Secrets decision is December, after the release window?! but otherwise nothing unexpected on that list except AoS Death (sounds ominous!) in September Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
