Ogregut Posted May 7 Share Posted May 7 Would be really nice for 4th Ed for armies that aren't getting a sizable wave to have a single kit rather than another foot hero. Temple guard, grave guard, dryads all could do with a glow up as could the 4 demon foot troops arguably. 6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah if they stoped the single foot hero release and started a single unit release I imagine many of the small ranges would be in a much better place now. Imagine if Fyreslayers got two units rather than 2 foot heroes in 3rd... 11 minutes ago, madmac said: I get what you are saying, but GW doesn't always work on the fairness principal, and they spent Dawnbringers hyping up even more stuff for Sylvaneth we haven't seen yet, vs KO being bit players and IDK being one-off minor antagonists. I do think both IDK and KO will get warcry warbands soon, though. I mean they hypped beast of chaos in brokens realms and see what they got. I wouldn't put much faith in narrative translating in new models a I imagine they create the models first and them just create some narrative to justify their existence. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure, but conversely who got big updates in 3E that didn't get models/attention in Broken Realms? Stormcast, KB, (Kragnos) Seraphon, Sylvaeth, NH, STD, CoS...it's pretty much the same list. Add FEC and Ironjawz/Gits who got their update inside Dawnbringers the same way Slaanesh, LRL and SBGL got theirs in Broken Realms. GW naturally writes their narrative campaigns around who has new models, but the thing is the best indicator of who is going to get new models is who is currently getting new models, because it means the design team is actively working on those ranges.

ScionOfOssia Posted May 7 Share Posted May 7 I think we’re almost guaranteed to see something for FS- The main narrative is taking place in their backyard! KO have been known to brawl with Skaven armadas, and the Idoneth could fight Skaven naval forces. There’s a pretty easy in for every “unfinished” range to get a wave 2. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OkayestDM Posted May 7 Share Posted May 7 1 hour ago, CommissarRotke said: wait the rumor looks like the EXACT SAME spikes as this body?? Did they mess up or did they reuse a Saurus body... I don't think so. The spacing between the scales is much more pronounced in the Rumor engine than on the updated Saurus Warriors. Whatever this is, it looks like something new.

Eventually getting new models need to not signal new models in the future, otherwise we will be mostly the same ranges that are getting new things. If we take danwbringers as a example we would expect: - Fyreslayers, Gitz (x2), FeC, Nurgle, Ironjawz, Sylvaneth, Stormcast, Khaine, Soulblight, Slaves. FeC and ironjawz alredy got their release within the series, so we could drop them. Gitz, Sylvaneth and Slaves already got waves last edition, so I imagine we could drop them as well. That would leave Fyreslayers, Nurgle, Khaine and Soulblight. Two factions with small ranges and two with some pretty old models. I really hope this is the case, because we don't need another big wave of releases for Gitz, Slaves and Sylvaneth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MitGas Posted May 7 Share Posted May 7 Not that I got any insider knowledge but I’d bet good money that we‘ll see a couple of small range extensions/waves for some forces akin to the Sylvaneth/Ironjawz one this edition. Only makes sense as after Skaven there‘s little to do in regards to big updates/nee forces (Ogors, CD and Malerion stuff but that last one could start as a smaller range extension for Daughters too). 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rachmani Posted May 7 Share Posted May 7 1 hour ago, madmac said: If we say 8-10 armies, which seems to be the average across editions, I would personally guess Stormcast Skaven Chorfs Ogors Fyreslayers CoS OBR (only death army that feels lacking atm) LRL(?) River temple at minimum kinda demands a follow-up DoK(?) (Krethusa feels like the herald of a new direction) Sylvaneth(?) (Kurnothi, this time for sure!) I'm just not feeling change in the air for KO and IDK right now, unfortunately. They were both basically ignored in Dawnbringers unlike every other order army in my list and there's no real REs or rumors in general swirling around them. Kruleboys need something more, or they will never manifest in a meaningful way. They need some kind of cavalry at least. Maybe *just* that, but that they need. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like they will do both as some popular armies will always get more stuff but some desperate army will get an update (FS and Ogors). it wouldn’t really surprise me if Sylvaneth and Gitz where to get more stuff this edition (if the Broken realm/ Dawnbringer theory holds true) but I would also think a few of the smaller armies (but not all of them) would get an update as well. there going to be losers every editions like Adeptus Custodes, Ad mech, and maybe Grey knights and GSC, but then you get Tau with a much needed update.

My general sense is if 40K isn’t doing it then AoS is following in its track and not diverging to far, and so far it been single foot heroes though I guess you can be like Necrons and get 3 heroes instead.

And especially not this year. We won't get anything big outside of SCE and Skavens this year. Maybe for the 25, but it feels still too early.
