Draznak Posted August 4, 2023 Share Posted August 4, 2023 27 minutes ago, Sir Grimm said: Do you think that GW will officially reveal all the leaked models today? Perhaps we'll have an article with some of the new minis. That's what they did after the massive STD leaks : we got just the daemon prince right away, then the rest as we went along.

Matrindur Posted August 4, 2023 Share Posted August 4, 2023 (edited) Its very likely we'll get an article , I just don't know if it will be today or maybe they'll wait until Monday and use it for new model Monday. Also no idea if true but from Valraks last video (very trustworthy for 40k rumours) he was told all of these where meant to be revealed at the end of the month at Nova which means the box shouldn't be coming until September Edited August 4, 2023 by Matrindur Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Still-young Posted August 4, 2023 Share Posted August 4, 2023 Nova will probably be pretty sparse now then, at least for AoS. That’s my biggest issue with leaks like this, it generally affects a preview down the line. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black_Templar_Lad Posted August 4, 2023 Share Posted August 4, 2023 That Cavalry Hero! 😍 You know what's a real standout for me as well? The bases, they look so natural, absolutely love the stonework and rocky grassland look, really really fitting. My only negative, is I'm not a massive fan of the Steelhelm helmets, but that's minor. I would love to see full face coverings at least. I do love though the variety and diversity of body types. The fact the run of the mill peasantry turned militia are all varied as you'd expect, but the higher up the hierarchy you go, the more the body resembles that more 'soldier' aesthetic we're used to, as you'd expect in the military. It really adds a good layer of immersion imo, and not something we've seen before really. I would have loved a unit of the Arch-Knights, or a more elite unit just to complete it but what an army, that SoulsBorne Command Squad is just lovely. Oh and all the familiars, mascots, background characters being ripped straight from medieval tapestry and art, absolutely lovely. I'm really looking forward to seeing everything together on the tabletop. I will admit after seeing each unit revealed, I wasn't a massive fan of the Steelhelms and gunline at first, but when seeing them all together, they look so natural and fit perfectly. Can't wait to see a full army shot. Amazing release we have coming up folks. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If this was supposed to be a Nova reveal im really wondering when they planned to show us more about book 2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black_Templar_Lad Posted August 4, 2023 Share Posted August 4, 2023 Actually, I'll take back my wish for an elite infantry unit. Some Stormcast Vanquishers with those Arch-Knight helmets would satisfy me to a T. Oh I'm so excited for this army. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cities is really spoiled for choice in that regard because of their access to the Stormcast range. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although I agree that the Stormcast range can plug in holes, I don't want the faction to become dependent on them. Imho Cities (and every other faction) should be able to stand on it's own. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That said, nothing some green stuff, a file and clippers can't solve. Absolutely disagree, the detailing is all part of this factions character imo 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh I fully believe your guys are going to look awesome Just the sort of haphazard appearance works for the theme GW is wanting to put forward for them - just as the excess of detail wouldn't work for a "cleaner" faction like Lumineth. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KingBrodd Posted August 4, 2023 Share Posted August 4, 2023 2 hours ago, Ejecutor said: A new one! This might be the most visually stunning model GW has ever produced. It literally looks like a painting I had to pick my jaw up from the floor. It deserves GWs model of the year award easily holy heck give the designers a raise a bonus and a lifetime of hi 5s and fist bumps. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really interested on seeing how you approach the minis. I was thinking the same. Some minis have too much stuff for me. For example I wouldn't mind removing the shields from the fusiliers or the cannon. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll go the opposite path and glue even more clutter to my guys to restore balance in the universe. We will see who gets the last laugh when I finally have a unit painted 10 years from now. 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only real negative for me personally means that GW could just drop one of each of these minis for New Model Mondays for months now.

For the ultimate balance, I will take the on foot marshal and glue it on behind the mounted Marshal so they share a horse. And give everyone else a fully armoured and decorated horse. And little snail creature. And apply at least 5 purity seals to every mini. And make a double decker cannon. And put a helmet on everyone's helmet. They'll make a really nice display by the time my coffin goes under. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clan's Cynic Posted August 4, 2023 Share Posted August 4, 2023 (edited) GW squatting the Mounted Freeguild General when the first Battletome came along was the ultimate grudge, so I'm glad to see they've rectified their mistake here.
