For AoS we got the Stormcast chariot and the Mirbrute Troggoth in that window. Did 9th edition 40k have a stop gap release? I always assumed the SCE/Kruleboyz release split was due to supply chain issues rather than a deliberate decision. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just went and checked and what I thought were the stop gap minis like the quad bike actually released with the codexes, so maybe there won't be that kind of release this time.

The main thing I'd add is just for certain Heroes to be able to join specific units, so you can more-reliably keep them in buff range (especially with things like Charges). For example, a Loonboss on Giant Cave Squig might have the ability to join Squig Hopper and Boingrot Bounder units. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The thing i want to know most of all is if we are getting another army or complete rework of an older army at the end of this edition or not. Mostly because we already got seraphon and CoS is up next and those are some huge releases already. We know something Kurnoth is brewing somewhere and some mentions of Chorfs and Malerion have been thrown around. Its just hard to tell nowadays if a runour is AoS, Underworlds or Warcry (or old world). I did notice that some of the models rumoured to leave CoS are included in the old world. Could the Aelves be returning to Sylvaneth within a Kurnoth subfaction? My bet for an end of edition army is chaos dwarves. We will have had a few revamps over the edition, and there's a possibility of a FeC release as well. Chorfs could find their way into the starter box too, but I'm still putting my money on it being order vs order (Malerion vs Stormcast or Lumineth) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My reason for doubt (as I mentioned in the other thread) is that the units are specifically named, and the ogres are named Maneaters, which seems unlikely in a Cities army. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Draznak Posted May 29, 2023 Share Posted May 29, 2023 3 hours ago, Neil Arthur Hotep said: Might as well cross-post these Cities rumours: If COS follows the same pattern as Votann or Seraphons, we'll have another mini reveal for Cities next Monday. So we'll know on 5 June whether this bunch of stuff is trustworthy or not. So far, it seems credible, even if it seems a little too good for Warcry... 12 references is the norm for an almost-new army or a major overhaul (Leagues of Votanns had 11 last year and Astra Militarum has just had 12 too). We're also on the right track when it comes to Warcry warbands, in relation to the roadmap unveiled at WarFest : 2 Destruction (safe), 2 Death (1 safe, the other for next spring?) and 4 Order (3 safe, the last one in the spring?).

Yeah, I think lots of armies would be cooler if mixing them was handled a bit better. As of now, you‘re usually just gimping yourself if you field a couple of units outside your own battletome - which is a shame and would be a real shame with cities. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
