I've got a few projects drawn up that'd require both, so I'm glad to hear my wallet can breathe easy for a bit haha Cool to hear Tau are getting Vespids! They're neat; wonder if Tau isn't getting plastics of their existing friendly species to make way for something new eventually? 👀 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Preppikoma Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 AFAIK, Valrak mentions Vespid vs. Swooping Hawks KT box, which, I presume, will follow the trikeless Hernkyn Pioneers vs. Brood Brother Kasrkin. The question is: all-flying operatives for the last box of the Bheta-Decima season, the first release of a new one, or the launch box (or early release) of the game's 3rd edition?

It's been one of the more common complaints about AoS for a while. He has no idea what he's talking about, he just wants attention. It is made from rumors from others, Honest Wargamer was the first to say that Beasts of Chaos could be eliminated and the range renewed with another concept. Something that makes a lot of logic considering that the legacy factions of TOW are not going to release or renew their range in the short term. If Skaven were to undergo a range revamp like Slaves did, Skaven would be in TOW as a main faction just like Slaves. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean I agree* but this IS the rumor thread so even if just sum-ups of previous rumors with a new twist it’s better than nothing(or worse dumb speculations like all 2022-2023 had with everyone having a new soup theory every month ending on Ogors + SoB from a joke tweet about Battletome: Dad Bodes people took seriously 😂) *I think he played his hand too soon with the TOW rumor of orcs & dawi at the end of January. I don’t think we’re getting dawi at all this year since if you look at the old teaser art it was Bret, TK, Orcs & Empire. Dwarf dice may have been a red herring he fell for.

I'm not particularly a fan of endless spells or faction terrain. They're just off to me. Maybe it's their execution but meh. More so faction terrain. Eh...

I wish you were right and I hope you are but there's a nicer way to put that even if I think I would be a total phallic move if he was just making up the beasts rumor.

Actually, I’m pretty sure they had good intel on Dwarfs… just got the reveal date wrong. I’ve got reasons other than the leaked dice to expect Dwarfs will be one of the next TOW releases.

People have been doomer posting about beasts since 2018 from everything from soup to squat so I hardly see AoS flipping the table on them so hard now of all times after they did so much new art, narratives and a solid rules boost for them. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes sense to be dwarves to follow the greenskins as natural enemies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Kim Woof-Woof Posted February 8 Share Posted February 8 I'm fond of the endless spells and faction terrain models (well, my lot's!) but they could be accused of being one of the contributors to cluttering up the game. If they're making efforts to streamline and simplify the game, they could bite the dust. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gareth 🍄 Posted February 8 Share Posted February 8 Endless Spells are one of the better additions to AoS IMO, I'd be happy to see them stick around. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

New one, Valrak already commented there are other flying guys on the horizon, like the eldar hawks. And I doubt we'll see two craftworld eldar kts in less than 12 months. Whitefang back me up seems indeed kinda dubious, all that he has commented so far isnt something that we didnt already know thanks to Valrak, Whitefang and Honest Wargamer I mean, dont get me wrong, this is the rumour thread and Im gonna comment everything they post either way because Im bored, but if he wants to become a rumour monger, he must give away more mean, something that hasnt been rumoured so far So, if you dont mind, I throw @Whitefang back me up an interesting challenge: tell us which skaven characters are going to be on the 4th starter box. Clawlord, or grey seers? Both? Or neither of them? Edited February 8 by Garrac 4 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chikout Posted February 8 Share Posted February 8 I think @Whitefang back me up was the bearer of bad news regarding BoC which is why people are hoping they are full of it. They said we'd see new ToW factions before the end of January. This was a rumour that didn't come from anyone else and turned out to be true. The actual @Whitefang has liked a few of their posts. They do seem to have some solid info. I'm inclined to believe them, but I really hope they're lying or were misinformed about the BoC stuff. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gitzdee Posted February 8 Share Posted February 8 I just want to be happy about the rumour that endless spells are staying. I quite like them, they add a fun element to the game. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beliman Posted February 8 Share Posted February 8 9 hours ago, Ganigumo said: 2. There are only so many ways to write similar heroes (foot, cav etc) without them looking the same or getting overly complex. They could do stuff like 10 attacks with 1 damage vs 5 at 2, but thats mostly splitting hairs. Making your own character is largely aimed at narrative play now, and I'm not sure I have a problem with that. 3. I don't think this is a problem. Typecasting units by performance (i.e hammer, chaff, anvil, support) is just as viable a method. If anything I prefer this, because it gives more freedom for asymmetrical armies. There was a bit of an arms race in older editions of wfb/40k whenever a new unit type was introduced as each army would get (or not get) that unit type as well. 2-Not sure about that, we have Range, Attacks, Hit, Wound, Rend and Damage for their basic profiles, and we should add Saves, Wounds, Movement and Bravery too if we want. And we still have basic stuff from Core Rules: Attack First, Attack Last and Ward Save. I think that's a lot more than what other games have and still, our foot heroes doesn't feel unique. 3-I wasn't talking about hammer, chaff, anvil, etc... If a great cannon does less damage than 10 handguns, that's a rules problem because people don't expect that. I don't care which role they give, but they should be easy to understand just by looking at our miniatures. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
