Acrozatarim Posted May 15 Share Posted May 15 GW paid for the very expensive cgi in a fully animated video trailer marketing the new edition. They've been throwing articles at us for weeks online. They've done a big reveal on a livestream (even if they didn't show us any miniatures in it), and have more such livestreams planned. I'm not sure that doing a fun streamed match between two wrestlers to show off Spearhead, revealed only a few days before said stream, can be really considered their main marketing tool here. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oke, they are European, but they fight in US, right? Maybe it is a good marketing tool for the US, but it still feels bizarre. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The owner of AEW is actual also the Owner of the Jacksonville Jaguar, an NFL football team. AEW is like the third biggest combat sport promotion league but much smaller then both WWE and UFC.

Mcm6495 Posted May 15 Share Posted May 15 Taking into account that within 29 hours the entire contents of the fourth edition box will be revealed, I would like to know what you think we will get. For my part, since the part that interests me the most is the skaven, I think the box could have the following: New Mounted Crawlord New Warlock Engineer New Clanrats New Warplock Jezzails New Rat Ogor New Artillery Piece Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's 22. Maybe we have another squad of 5 something that we didn't see in the trailer as the Stormvermins? Skaven: 1 - Mounted Clawlord. 2 - Grey seer. 3 - Warlock Engineer. 4 - 20 Clanrats. 5 - 10 Stormvermin. 6 - 3 Jezzail. 7 - Ratling 2.0. 8 - 2 Rat Ogors with master. That makes 40. 22, 40 and some scenery doesn't seem to be far from a decent guess. Scenery: I think it would be too much to get 6 sprues as we had for Octarius: Review: Kill Team: Octarius starter set (first impressions & unboxing) » Tale of Painters so I bet we will have 3. And we know they are ruined buildings from a Dawnbringers Settlement thanks to @Whitefang back me up, so here I go: 1 - Ruined Domicile shell. 2 - Ruines walls. 3 - Bell tower from the trailer. 4 - Ruined crumbs.

Acrozatarim Posted May 15 Share Posted May 15 I suspect the packmaster might actually be a new Moulder hero to replace the old master Moulder that is (I think?) leaving the old range. We know heroes are a big deal now for army creation with their retinues, and it'd make sense to have a hero in the roster who can take rat ogers and abominations as their main unit choices. That could give us four likely heroes in the box for Skaven - clawlord, seer, engineer, and packmaster - which would match Dominion. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neverchosen Posted May 15 Share Posted May 15 I have it on pretty good authority that the starter set will be: Liberators x2 Clan Rats x2 Then a whole bunch of Chaos Dwarves... I think I read it on a rumour forum called TGA? 3 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That could give us four likely heroes in the box for Skaven - clawlord, seer, engineer, and packmaster - which would match Dominion. I think that's a rock-solid guess: at this point, Goblins and Squigs are the only unit left with a "handler and pets" situation in AoS right? I could see Rat Ogres, the rumored Rat-hounds, hellpit abominations, and Giant Rats (if they make it) along with the other moulder stuff i've forgotten all sharing one buff-hero like AoS tends to do. A Moulder hero for mutants, Skyre for guns, Eshin for ninjas, Pestilines for monks, along with a fighty Ratlord and Grey Seer for masterclans. Outside of mount options, that feels pretty perfect for Skaven to me. Each slice of the Skaven pie has a dedicated support hero that way, sort of like how Cities used to be before being introduced to the axe. I'm curious what Skaven's identity will look like in a couple editions. I think we'll either see the lines between clans blur, or the clans becoming more defined with new sculpts. After Cities, I could see "skaven soup" happening to the clans with less defined "factions" in the tome Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the heroes probably have shooting attacks(mounted lord’s axe throw, new Celestant calling down lightning, Veritant’s holy lantern flames & prayers) to already even the odds that way.(plus factor in their new core rules letting them auto pump up troops attacks & Saves, reforge a lost unit and Ruination all being able to say Nope 50% of the time to enemy abilities) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They feel like an ideal "next step" purchase, with a few more options, poses, upgrades, and so on. I think we will see something like Skryre Globadiers or a similarly exotic concept, possibly coupled with either the Ogors or the Ratling Gun on hard-to-get sprue. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KingBrodd Posted May 15 Share Posted May 15 Cant believe we have just over 24 hours to wait for a new AOS Edition reveal!! It truly feels like 3.0 was revealed with the Kruelboyz only months ago. 5 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GW never released so much for a system in such a short time. While I do think that some releases should've been switched around to support some factions earlier and others a bit later it's still pretty amazing. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the 4th factory coming and the rumour about AoS putting twice the money they had in the third edition, we can see AoS taking the next step in the coming years! 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
