Dragon-knight77 Posted July 8 Share Posted July 8 So from the list we got sort of confirmation of what to expect so to round it up Skaven: Stormvermin Acolyte Globadiers Archwarlock Weapon team Ratling Gun Warpfire Thrower Master Moulder Doom-Flayer (not a weapon team anymore) New Behemoth-->Brood terror New Wolf rats Vizzik Skour the verminlord New Engineer--->Leak model Galaneer with Warpvolt The Warlord with bodyguards Stormcast Knight Azyros/Tornus the Redeemed Lord Relictor Lord-Celestant I still see them making another version of the Judicators that replace them like how Reclusians and Annihilators replaced the Paladins other then that there still the rumor engine of the Knight gripping the sword & the lighting ghiest they been teasing as "pass the edge" stormcast 1 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We might wind up seeing a record for most new kits if everything that they say that was getting retired that showed up on the Skaven points list from today is accurate. Along with the fact that I can’t imagine they only left off one unit in the brood horror. Good time to be a rat man Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnusaur Posted July 9 Share Posted July 9 Not every retired unit is making a comeback (this time around), that's for sure. Stuff like Plague Censers would definitely be brought back along a bunch of Pestilens-related stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That sword is such a weird case. It is one of those weapons that are used by a limited bunch of Stormcasts, and if GW was trying to reduce the bloat of the battletome, this RE doesn't look very promising in that matter. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gains: - +1 attack for grot rider. - Conditionally useful out of turn movement. Losses: - Rip(pa) - Pile in extension, shoot after redeploy - Wounded target bonus Hopefully that rumor engine points to a new hero for gitmob, because these guys need it. No synergy outside of a loonshrine revive for 3 models and I’d wager these grots will perform much worse without the obnoxious peppering and pile in they could perform. No rend at all is rough, and there are just better options who do more for their points. Off to Warcry my snarlfangs go. And speaking of Warcry… I’m still eyeing that gloomspite icon in the Gnarlwood map. That icon is for Underworlds warband, that is his fortress. 12 hours ago, Grunbag said: I have a theory / question : Kruleboyz mean beast subfaction isn’t really working as you can set only 5 heros max and only hero have companion damage . Do you see it a sign to a cav unit coming to kruleboyz to be played in mean beast ? 11 hours ago, cyrus said: Yes , the side note says Judicators are moving to legends in June 2025 , together with Paladins and Sacrosanct chamber . So no new judicators in thunderstrike as new liberators and prosecutors. Index are Index. My recomendation is not speculate too much with the future with them. They can add text or dates randomly that is not related with the future and when books appear make that text obsolete 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Kim Woof-Woof Posted July 9 Share Posted July 9 Just noticed that they've dropped the Viceleader off into the Legends chasm. Bleedin' cheek of it. It's like they knew that I've got two of them on my painting desk (the standard model, plus a conversion of the old Finecast Masque).

Non-Slaanesh observers might point out that the Hedonites faction isn't exactly short of hero models... But true Slaanesh devotees, like me, say "more, more, more! No such thing as enough models!!" 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snarff Posted July 9 Share Posted July 9 (edited) So, since the speculation/rumours say we're likely going into Talaxis with the next Warcry season, I think a Seraphon Temple Guard Warband/kit for AoS is exceptionally likely. We had the Saurus looking Rumour Engine, another Seraphon Warband is extremely likely in a Seraphon-focused season, Temple Guard would logically guard a crashed Temple-Ship and Temple Guard are an outdated kit ready to be brought to modern standards. I can't wait to see how they are going to look, hopefully more magitech-armored and elite than normal Saurus. Other warbands would be a shot in the dark. Idoneth, Kharadron, Skaven, Slaanesh, Gloomspite, Ironjawz (and SoB) are still missing dedicated warbands. Of these, I think Skaven is likely to get a Warband assaulting/looting Talaxis. Maybe new Gutter Runners? The others I cant see a clear link in terms of lore, but I am expecting at least Slaanesh of these to get a warband soon. Other potential warbands (based on rumour engines or wild speculation) would be SBGL Grave Guard, a Grundstok Kharadron force, a Namarti IDK band, an Ironweld warband. A Chuardin warband would likely wait until after the 3rd edition starter sets. Edited July 9 by Snarff 6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know about the lore, but what I'd like to see in a Slaanesh warband is something that pushes the 'carnival' theme to the fore. Ruffs, Venetian-style masks, outrageous costumes. A S&M circus! C'mon, it'd be brilliant. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chaos Duardin already have a Warband, the Horns of Hashut. They're not Chorfs but they are basically the guys they send out to do Warcry stuff.

TrawlingCleaner Posted July 9 Share Posted July 9 The Vortex Beast is still in the game, it's an StD unit not a DoT unit as it was in 3rd. Now you won't be able to ally it in however (unless you chat with your opponent) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm a little resentful of the fact that the mono-god factions all lost the Coaltion option... and a little resentful that it was done without a murmur. Just dropped, not a word said about it. But I'm guessing that not a lot of players were using the Coalition rules anyway... I've not seen any real outcry about it. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
