FoursCompany Posted June 13 Share Posted June 13 Does a faction focus on KB rather than Warclans confirm the rumored split of IJ and KB into separate tomes? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Faction focus confirm for the Index that they're separated for Battletome no hard confirmation just obvious look since they have Inronjawz/Kruleboyz Warscroll and no Big WAAAGH! keywork to group them together Edited June 13 by Dragon-knight77 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. Also we still have Orruk warclans spearhead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ookami Posted June 13 Share Posted June 13 (edited) I wonder how they’ll come up with Ironjawz spearhead next week as long as every faction focus has its section reviewed. Or maybe Ironjawz Spearhead will be announced next week🤔 Edited June 13 by Ookami 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feels weird to have an Index preview for an army that doesn’t technically ‘exist’ to me. Have a subfaction FF just feels…odd. The spearhead being titled Warclans is a thing…how easy would it be to reprint boxes for just Kruelboyz Spearhead (since the box only contains KB models anyway). Not sure I’d put money on GW rebranding an entire stock of spearhead boxes though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mortal Wound Posted June 13 Share Posted June 13 (edited) 1 hour ago, Bosskelot said: Makes sense to divorce KB from Kragnos lorewise. Always felt very forced and something decided on last minute. The idea of the stylized faces on their shields and banners somehow representing him was just ???? Kragnos is very much still a part of the Kruleboyz background. He is name-dropped both in the article and on actual warscrolls. Edited June 13 by Mortal Wound 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ogregut Posted June 13 Share Posted June 13 I wouldn't be surprised if they put rules in White Dwarf for Orruk Warclans. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would be hard to do that now since it implies they are now in separated Pitch battle profile if going by the complete wipe of the Orruk Warclans keyword. There no existing nomenclature that would tie them together anymore Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There no existing nomenclature that would tie them together anymore Well theres one "Destruction"!! Back to a big old mix of Orks, grots, troggs and giants! But that wont not happen, at least not inthe next edition. Ill miss my Orruk warclans, I enjoyed mixing kruelboys with Ironjaws. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScionOfOssia Posted June 13 Share Posted June 13 1 minute ago, LadyAurora said: Haiku are seasons And the new season's handbook Will appeal to more So is this a prediction or a leak? Because “It will appeal to more people than Merciless Blizzard: The Musical” is a pretty safe bet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gothmaug Posted June 13 Share Posted June 13 I do miss the rumors though, seems we haven't had any leaks or concrete proof of anything new in a long long time. Silent ones, chaos dwarves, sky grots, Malerion's brood, or the kurnothi. Heck with Beasts getting kicked to Old world, there's certainly room for another faction. I hope we see something surprising and unique this edition, hopefully for destruction. And if its entirely unrelated to the current gods and chaos gods so much the better. Extraplanar invasion into our reality, attracted by all the rampant magic? Sure bring it on. Or perhaps the very shards of the realms rebelling, with elementals appearing everywhere to wipe out the mortals plaguing its surface. Really toss the narrative on its head, shake up the status quo, and cause the order gods to come back together or face oblivion. Heck, even Chaos doesnt want to eliminate all the mortals. Be hilarious to see Archaeon team up with the Stormcast, wouldn't it? 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They gain the BIG WAAAGH keyword." 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We debated also about the chance of being just for the indexes period... so most likely confirming it than not, but we won't know until the battletomes arrive.

Freemeta Posted June 13 Share Posted June 13 maybe allies rules will be more lax (no regiment but count as auxilary units). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gothmaug Posted June 13 Share Posted June 13 Gnoblars should join up with the Gitmob and form the sky grots. Blackpowder technology from the gnoblars with mechanical know how from the gitmob. Match made in heaven. Or more likely Ashqy. Heck Total war already has them, why not AoS? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe they could expand on the original idea and have Ogors adopting/bullying a variety of little critters they come across as slaves/pets/snacks, not just Gnoblars.

Just take min 1 KRULEBOYZ regiment and 1 IRONJAWZ regiment, and also that each regiment must have it's own battle formation. And on top give them WAAAAAAGH rule that work different on KB and IJ. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
