I‘m still angry about not getting the steel rook. 😂 You still have chances. It is supposed to be available in Eisel, so you might have a chance there. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We already know the first narrative book will be about Chaos, and Death isn't scheduled for anything until next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Satyrical Sophist Posted Sunday at 07:21 PM Share Posted Sunday at 07:21 PM 1 hour ago, Thaliontil said: I guess, but still, I hoped for something a bit more urgent given the state of the meta rn Is the meta particularly bad? It looks relatively ok to me. Some overtuned stuff, but a fairly large chunk in the fat middle and the worst performing factions not being too far behind (with one exception). There are some problems to be fair with Lumineth and Nighthaunt seeming to be just too good and KO (and I say this as someone with a small KO army who finds it difficult to build up motivation to paint more) needing some big changes. KO are such a weird faction that I'd rather they tended towards the weaker side, because a fast moving and shooty army can quickly become oppressive. I think they could really do with some more units and something to operate in the manifestation slot. I'd love to see a unit of armoured claim defender kharadrons with big shields, and some kind of mad science endrinworks experiments in the manifestation roll. KO also got hurt bad with standardisation of rules. A bubble dwarf being 2 wound is always going to be hard to balance when they come in units of 3. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starfyre Posted Sunday at 08:56 PM Share Posted Sunday at 08:56 PM (edited) Presumably Othar is on the October release schedule by mistake and is the hero model to be released along the SBGL battletome as the 'death' release on the roadmap, maybe alongside new Grave Guard. I don't believe it was intended for an October release, or going to be a commemorative model which are usually just variants of the models from the launch set. Presumably the changes to the meta would be points adjustments including for cavalry, and the most popular Nighthaunt/Lumineth/Troggoth units, as well as some adjustment to manifestations which I don't believe will be points but a rules change to limit their use (which will naturally land just after I finish painting my Krondspine Incarnate.).

Season of War books returning and being something recursive during the edition and with interesting movements in the lore would be the dream. The downside... around 45 € for it. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Othar is exactly an example of a commemorative model. We have dozens of examples for both games: Bawla, the revenge, ancestor wrath, Holga, Anasta, Mudruk...

I’ll one up this theory by adding that maybe Othar will be included in a vs box or a special edition “deal.” After all it’s not like there isn’t precedence for this, since we got Vokmortian in The Feast of Bones box way back when.

Without the basic tools of Manifestations, Spells, Prayers or any other game-mechanic like ressurections or teleports, we only have Melee and Ranged gameplay. The weird thing is that diminishing the impact of our melee just improves our shooting... I love how KOs play is supposed to play in this edition with Counter-Charge and Covering-Fire, but I can't believe how GW missed the rest of the points in the Index.
