Garrac Posted August 2 Share Posted August 2 Btw, someone on the skaven discord noticed there are new rat models on the stock images for the webstore. A very clever conversion? Scenography? The vermintide spell? Part of a very big base? 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vasshpit Posted August 2 Share Posted August 2 @Whitefang back me up Any hints for us not interested in either of the two starter faction concerning that gitmob rumor engine pic? 🙂💚 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chikout Posted August 2 Share Posted August 2 Really curious about the Morrgryph. I'm still looking for the perfect centrepiece for my Stormcast army. The big dragons are too separate from the rest of the army, the tauralon has a really ugly face and the prime isn't a great sculpt. I was leaning towards Ionus but a big gryph sounds perfect. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just hope that Hobgrots and Horns of Hashut are useable to help bulk out the army upon release. That'd be a dream come true for me; a plastic Chorf range is likely to be my last purchase(s) from GW at this point, and "evil clockwork" implies "Hellcannon" since it's the only Chorf model that leans that way On 7/25/2024 at 9:31 PM, Twisted Firaun said: Honestly if the Horns of Hashut (a group founded solely as a vanguard for their tall hatted overlords), isn’t included in the faction then GW needs to fire some people. I am right there with you. But honestly I feel pretty strongly about *all* the cuts since AoS2, especially Beasts. I'm *hoping* that they make it into the book for everyone who bought them and is planning on sticking to AoS. Like, I could just as easily see Hobgrots staying in Kruleboyz exclusively at this point since allies are pretty much completely gone as a core mechanic this edition. It'd make a certain (bad) kind of sense, then, to boot Horns out of Slaves since Slaves and Chorfs can't ally anyways; now theres "no reason to" since the Horns don't exist. Especially since the models werent horribly well received; I could see GW deciding not to continue down the "many races worship Hashut" train of thought and focus on Chorfs exclusively 16 hours ago, AquaRegis said: This is back when you could actually customize your army, in free expansions and create a narrative, rather then being forced into set units and load outs, like the modern game systems. The pivot to making AoS a "beginner friendly!" "You 'only need one spearhead!'" box sucks so badly because, while it's cool right now, GW's history with justifying prices is "well what you 'need' is cheap while anything you'd 'only need one of' is a luxury" and, to me, that suggests Spearheads will get hit less terribly with future price hikes, but *everything else* is "not necessary!" so it'll be priced horribly. Then, in a minute or two, you'll get "the new edition of Spearhead!" Where every faction gets a new box with new rules, and I could see GW just saying "ah, that's tough! The old spearheads are legends now... so the four armies you started? Well now you "get" to add a whole new Spearhead box!" I'm seeing a ton of new people getting into AoS all over the internet; which is great! But I've noticed many of these people do not have a long history with GW.... Which is less great. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Based on the comments Jr said I imagine him as the Brood horror equivalent. The same that we already had in the box but bigger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The rats on the image all have regular allife mammal faces, and appear to be bigger than the cursed city ones. And also, all the tails are on the ground, rather than flying over here and there. A comparison here: (theres more cursed city models, but the problem stands of no tails on the air) Edited August 3 by Garrac 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think we are getting rat swarms as a unit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
