Chikout Posted August 5 Share Posted August 5 People are really voting like crazy for chaos. It’s seems that you can vote for outside the city as many times as you want. I spent about 5 minutes voting for order about 100 times. The order percentage still went down so I gave up. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like image seeing in the distance a force of lighting dragons and a giant skeletal gryphon charging into the fortress I would bet it's a Tauralon replacement, more than a Stardrake replacement 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah it was quite clear it has been being bombed into chaos' favour ever since order had a small lead. Doesn't really matter in the end, although lorewise an order victory would have been much more interesting. 6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gothmaug Posted August 5 Share Posted August 5 so are we going to end up with an Order besieged type scenario? Skaven hold the countryside, but Order maintains an isolated city? Could lead to an interesting narrative, Send in a crusade to liberate the besieged city before it falls. Something unexpected like Death to the rescue might be fun. Like the Ossiarch show up to save the day, then demand the bone tithe from the rescued city...... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not at Hel Crown, plus I think the Bonereapers will be more concerned with Evergnaw and stopping Skaven from poisoning underworlds with Warpstone. Fortunately, the Null Myriad should be enough to allow them to mount a counterattack once Evergnaw is found. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is it from the back. I am running an oddball, but could be possible that we have a similar mini and it is not Tornus? But, yeah, it is in fact weird. Especially when the leaked mini was the Brood Horror and they showed Tornus as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is pretty easy to set up a script that spams for your faction... another dumb idea by GW. It was 50/50 and in a matter of a day or two it went down to 25/75.

Ejecutor Posted August 5 Share Posted August 5 (edited) Quote And no matter which side you're on, won't want to miss it. So it feels like they will reveal something for SCE as well. Also, it is not saying it will be done on Twitch, but rather on YT live: Quote Whoever wins, we will all get to enjoy the reveal of a whole roster of amazing new miniatures during the upcoming Slaughter at Hel Crown Preview, which will be broadcast on YouTube Live on Saturday the 10th of August. So it is another pre-recorded video. Edited August 5 by Ejecutor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially when the leaked mini was the Brood Horror and they showed Tornus as well. the reason why it was release with the Brood horror is because in the Core Rulebook there a double page of Skaven and Stormcast army facing off each other with the Brood Horror and Knight Azyros on each other pages hence how the Brood horror image got "leaked" 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neverchosen Posted August 5 Share Posted August 5 30 minutes ago, Ejecutor said: So it feels like they will reveal something for SCE as well. I mean that sounds like a general pitch of not wanting to miss out, like I can see them say that in a 40k or Necromunda article about not wanting to miss out on these new models. But I think more specifically there is an assumption that people will want to tune in to learn about the results of the battle and the consequences to the lore. Meaniwhile Ogor players are just waiting to see what is on the menu Rats or City Dwellers? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HorticulusTGA Posted August 5 Share Posted August 5 Gotta say I'm quite disappointed with the Hel Crown result (which seems absolutely planned, to the reveal show logo with Skaven writings). We knew the Skaven Wave content since months, the first Skaven leak was the Brood Horror from the Core Book, and I can't believe Stormcasta - as the Starter Set faction for 4 editions straight - has fewer players / collectors than Skaven (who is a beloved faction but quite neglected in AOS since the End Times). They really really really need to show the Stormcasts at NOVA at the end of the month. Valrak is talking about that reveal a lot (for 40k of course) so I guess it will be large enough to see the remaining Ruination kits.... 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Acording to skaven lore, during the age of chaos skaven were on a civil war. They never got a W out of it (except if we count killing other skaven) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
