The Rumour Thread


Recommended Posts

Btw, once again the AoS team steals because, my god, how bad are the roadmaps for the rest. 40k having nothing going for the next 4 months? That should put at least 4 codexes on the latest days of 10th!!!

Feels almost a joke considering that most of the HH release have been plastic Tanks over any other unit type

Yeah, meanwhile the most of the legion specific units are still forge world resin, and the half mechanicus units still haven't been revealed yet.

Best preview ever:

 

Chaos Dwarfs to BB

New Gitz kits

Orruk Warclans stays more time

Not sure why it’s a good news orruk stay together , they don’t interact with each other anymore so it doesn’t matter if they are I  the same book or not . The only think that involve being in the same book is that usually there is only 1 mini with per battletome release so it means on this case only IJ or KB will get one mini which is bad for players

Ok since GW can't do it here's a roadmap. 

2024

September pre-order:

Skaven 

Kill team 

Stormcast

October pre-order:

Blood angels

November pre-order:

Battleforces

Late 2024: unconfirmed dates:

At least two underworlds teams (Stormcast and Skaven?)

A narrative book for AoS. 

Slaves to darkness featuring a Darkoath spearhead 

Chaos dwarfs for blood bowl

More warriors of chaos for old world. 

A new faction for Necromunda

More mechanicum for Horus Heresy. 

Possibly a launch box full of Krieg stuff for 40k. 

Early 2025:

Orruk warclans book and spearhead. 

Gloomspite gits launch box with at least two new kits. Probably gitmob focused

A death book. My money's on Nighthaunt. 

For 40k, the full range of Krieg stuff.

More Eldar aspects 

Imperial knights. 

 

A new kill team box featuring ogryns, ratling snipers and Orks. 

Underworlds "We'll continue to build up those factions" weird expression but with the promise of new factions it looks like Nighthaunt Noob's predictions are correct. Chaos Duardin, DoK, Seraphon etc. 

Empire and High Elves for old world.

Sorry, but they still claiming is Orruk Warclans and they can add Big Waaagh as army of renown in the book.

 

Sorry, but it seems Orruk Warclans is the way of the book.

My two pence….

As I’ve been playing a lot of Blood Bowl recently, I’m really happy with the Chaos Dwarfs. They are a team I loved when I first started Blood Bowl *cough*twentyyears*cough*.

The new stormcast look great and I’m tempted to do them in 2025 as I’m working my way through some spearheads at the moment. 
 

Really not surprised at the roadmap. I think to call it a roadmap is a stretch but at least it teases what they want to do in the future without tying them to any actual fixed points. 
 

Not seen videos yet but will try and watch later

So this kinda confirms that terrain and endless spells will be important this edition and we will get all the factions with the missing ones, right?

Also, the Palladors are the perfect kit for Empire Gryphs kitbash! And you didn't want to believe me!

I mean it confirms that Stormcast got terrain this edition, hopefully everyone else missing faction terrain does too but GW are rarely that consistent

So a Chaos Battletome and a Narrative Book...

Uhhh... okay?

Poor choice of words calling the rest of the year 'packed' if I'm honest.

That is a pretty packed end of the year. We only have 4 months left, so two big releases for Skaven and Stormcast, plus a small S2D release and a new narrative book is a release a month, 2 of which are substantial.

And there’s a real chance the gloomspite box will release in December too if it’s coming early next year

Army box should for sure mean more than just a hero, probably at least 2 more kits in addition to a hero model

Yeah, should be at least 3 releases including a hero for them, possibly more as it mentions individual releases too.

And why do they keep adding old minis to the videos? This time MR Impertinant and the Knight Arcanum.

Both are getting rereleased outside of the 3rd Ed starters for the first time

I think the make up is usually like 2 heroes (forgot if the wulderfiend is a hero or not) and two new kits (one is often double up)

and possibly there are more new kits that are release later on when the Battletome officially comes out

There’s no real rule to them other than there being at least 3 kits, it depends on the size of the kits.

At a guess for Gloomspite I’d say a character, 2 new units (with 2 copies of one of those units in the box) and 1 new chariot/monster.

The worst thing is that there is no place with all the info. There are things in the article that they didn't say on stream like this but there are also things in the stream they didn't say in the article like the narrative book.

Also I just notived that the article says the Underworlds Stormcoven is coming back with the Skaventide individual releases so interesting how that is going to work since Underworlds Warbands have no rules anymore.

For the Skaven warband that is also coming back it would make sense if its just a Plague Priest on foot since there is no other model for that but we already have a Knight Arcanum model so they wouldn't need to bring back the Stormcoven for that. That makes me think they are actually getting some kind of special rules (which makes me wonder why they even removed them from the Index?)

Very likely those picked UW warbands will have rules again or will be used as proxies for something else.

I think they removed them all with the indexes to palliate the disappointment, and with the BTs they will be able to bring back some selected ones.

it’s IJ spearhead , kruleboyz will keep theirs 

Yeah, I know, that's my point : if all Orruk Warclans are getting in 4th is a spearhead, since KB already got one, it means IJ will get theirs. And since a spearhead is the only thing orruk warclans are getting, it also means that KB will get done dirty. 

Si I hope we KB players get something new along the campaign book or within Warcry.

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  🤣😅

If the campaign book follows the 40k trend it won't have any new miniature, just the book itself.

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.

I think it is normal that they are more dynamic. They don't have all the restraint from the armour that the new ones are wearing.

Also, as I said, heavier gryphs :P

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 

I think so as well.

Oh ok I see you’re still on big waaagh hope … I think if they were about to make an army of renown with big waaagh they would probably already made it in the faction pack but who knows ? They already said there are totally different faction with no big waaagh on twitter , maybe they can change their mind but I doubt it

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.

To me having a narrative book so soon after the release is something significant! Hopefully we start to get them more often.

Not suprising to see Slaves up first. I wonder if the new Darkoath Spearhead will entirely replace the existing Chaos Warrior one? I do wonder how long support will stay for 'older' Spearhead boxes in general.

Good question. I'm eager to get a Slaves Spearhead up and running, but I'll be livid if they abandon supporting it in favour of a Darkoath one (I like Chaos Warriors, I don't like the new Darkoaths)!

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.

They are not a replacement. Just share the word Pallador.

So...death battletome Will be ossiarch wave2 right?

Is the only One death army that needs new thing and i think we'll see new arkhan form.

Like the new stormcasts and love the Dawi Zharr team,a good appetizer for the aos army XD.

Considering it is the next BT after a small release (GSG), I would say it is NH.

You can still download rules for old oop combat patrol for 40k, so I would expect the same for AoS.
