They mention It. Spiderfang Spearhead + Armybox (they didn't mention theme)

But where did they mention it? I watched the bit on stream again and didn't hear it and also can't see it in the article or on facebook

There was no mention of spider fang, I just rewatched it and they don't even mention new spearheads in the stream, its just in the article on WarCom.

Well

 

Ok so

 

-Chaos Dwarfs, Beautiful, now give me for AoS and Old World, sod it, give me Some Chaos Votann for spice too.

-Storm Cast stunning, AoS design team is the Apex team currently. Specialist studio close tie in. These stormcast are inspiring, Iridian is a Really cool mini and concept. I want Vandus so so bad. I imagine he and Khul will feature in this rumoured up and coming campaign book. No? We must have Vandus in some sort of Monster Storm Elemental Form. 
 

- I enjoy Watching and Listening to Adam Troke. I love hearing the design Team. This awkward interview style needs to stop. It’s painful to watch. The original Videos the designers did for the Primarchs, with a model going in and out of shot with music,... More of that. Also, please, gw, never do Roadmap interview and just say, If you like things, well, oh boy, things are indeed coming. Vague, pointless, waste of my time. 
 

-Wulf is, interesting, A nice sculpt, Lotr, no, For Aos? Perfect, looking foward to more….Hope theres a Balrog and Sauron in the film  🤣😅

What a dissapointed. I can't say I am impressed with the new Stormcast. So after the dragons became a SCE exclusive, now they also claim the griffons?

And when is this one designed? The dynamics feel wrong and static. The older palladors are so much more dynamic. 10 rfcfvbfhdhsVanguard-Palladors

The monday articles off the last couple of weeks were much better than this show. 

For AoS Skaven are the clear winner easily.

At least based on this: "Neither ranging scouts nor pre-emptive shock cavalry, Stormstrike Palladors are instead held in reserve until one killing strike can turn the tide of battle." they aren't actually replacing the Vanguard Palladors

I know. I mean, compared with the palladors released years ago, this addition feels older design wise. It could easily been an AoS edition 1 kit. The position of the lance and shield feels ackward.

Its the stance of a heavy cavalry while not having the level of armour and thickness you'd expect of a heavy cavalry

There is no movement or dynamic in the way the way that Stormstrike pallador is holding it's lance or shield. It's not in a charging position. It's a bit of poking with his lance.

This is i.e a proper charging position.

Anyway, I can't say that this show activated the hype or blew me away on the creative side.

Prediction

Gitlord on Greater Snarlfang 

Gitmob Shaman

2 groups of Gitmob Grot Infantry

Wolf Chariot

maybe they put the new Snarlfang rider to sweeten the boxset

 

My bet is :

Gitlord on greater Snarlfang

Snarlfang chariot

Snarlfang riders x10

Gitmob Doomdiver thrower chariot

(no infantry for gitmob, there need to be faster than shiny spiky ears from Hysh)

I hope so! The greater Snarlfang, snarlfang riders and chariot would also be perfect to allow a new alternative for the O&G army which are stuck with truely old wolves 😄.

Strange event and I can see people being very disapointed. For my part I quite liked the Stormcast although I don't know if I will be getting anything except maybe the Griffon. Oh and the portal will look great in my terrain collection 

Chaosdwarfs were a fantastic bit of a bait and switch as I started watching late and thought they were AOS.

The roadmaps were a literal bust.

The chat was pretty much 50% complaining that the Stormcast looked better than Blood Angels and 50% complaining that Stormcast are worse space marines. I feel like not watching these any more.

The chats always seem to bring out the people you’d never want to have a conversation with 😅

Great new SCE models, I actually like the new Palladors as a cavalry option within the warrior chamber. Roadmaps are hilariously unhelpful, but not a shock considering how poorly giving actual roadmaps went for them last time. To me, the vague roadmaps are just a sign that their release plans aren't set in stone, not really any reason to be concerned for any of the games involved. In terms of 2025, I'm excited about an Ironjawz Spearhead & the next wave of Aeldari stuff!

Gloomspite gitz spearhead will be spiderfang or gitmob ? Im confused  

 

my guess was they release gitmob wave this edition and they will remove spiderfang next edition like it happen to BS with KB release

Huge letdown.

First of all the latest purge is not in the slightest justified by new Stormcast replacements. There is little to no improvement across the models.

According to roadmap nothing significant will drop to AoS this year.

+ for multiple heads for Lady Celestant.

Chaos Dwarfs turning to be a BB team 😄

Nothing for WarCry, Underworlds or OW.

100%!

I don't understand that this was removed for stormstrike palladors that aren't an improvement to the existing palladors in aesthetics or dynamics.

I also don't get why this had to be removed.

New Stormcast look great, and I really like the return to more traditional griffon aesthetics with the Morrgryph amd Palladors over a lot of the... odder mount looks Stormcast have had over the years. Shame not to see anything more extreme on the Ruination side in the vein of lightning geists but I suspect these won't be the last Stormcast releases we see this edition.

Also jazzed to see the Stormcoven mentioned with an indication they're being added back to AoS as a unit, like the Plague Pack were. Hopefully this means several former UW warbands getting reintroduced as generic units for the game.

There's some odd things on the road maps that I'm curious about. The AoS one has 'all factions' under the 2025 banner - not all Alliances but all factions. Strange phrasing. The 40k one, meanwhile, has factions under the 2025 banner that they've said in thr same article are releasing this year.

Anyway, I guess this means we get something like one of Skaven/Stormcast in September, the other in October, and then StD in November, with December cleared for Christmas battleboxes etc.
