Asbestress Posted July 30 Author Share Posted July 30 Not much, but I found this excerpt from the 2nd Edition Ossiarch BT while I was reading up on some Shyish lore. Quote The Null Myriad's greatest challenge in the conquest of Anadiria were the Chaos-worshipping duardin of the Strangler's Peaks. The armies of the duardin were eventually brought to battle on the Fractured Plains, where their infernal magic proved to be ineffective against the Myriad's defences. When the duardin pulled back to the foothills in the hopes of support from their cliffside artillery, they discovered that a small force consisting of several Mortisan Tridents had infiltrated the mountains, scavenged bone from the lairs of local Ghodrine Rocs, and used it to create a force of Necropolis Stalkers that had slaughtered their way through the artillery crews and had then proceeded into the tunnels of the duardin holds to continue their bloody work. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Krungharr Posted August 2 Share Posted August 2 I expect new OBR units that are much shorter than their current builds then... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So the chorfs suffered a loss against the Bonereapers, but are confirmed to have magic and enough artillery pieces to feel confident against the army of the super-undead.... I'll take those odds. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fracas Posted August 13 Share Posted August 13 Well, if Valrak has made an off-hand comment I think it’s sealed. I won’t lie, I may hold onto my piles of hobgrots and horns of hashut for a while longer in case… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snorri Nelriksson Posted August 29 Share Posted August 29 Considering the Bloodbowl team reveal Is still the old assyrian look,i think it reinforces the idea that the proper aos release Will mantain the old style like others Legacy armies did. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think the look of the bloodbowl team tells us anything about the AoS army. Those two universes really seem to have very little to do with each other. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know they are not related still being a Legacy arm like lizardmen and skaven (and seeing that Horns of Hashut still are Mesopotamian) i don't think they'll change the concept.

Honestly they should just take the Total War roster, give us a couple of named characters/monster centerpieces, a scenery piece, and everything would be golden. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have Hobgrots now though and also humans "serfs"....so Who knows XD. Tbh i Hope they'll add something new(armored gargant?new Hashut demons?) also and not Just the old units.

Agreed, maybe we can get some kind of alchemist/brewer wielding the chorf equivalent of Greek fire boosting the daemons? On the Daemonic front I’m not really sure what they could add beyond a “daemon prince” type of character. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like you could do fire snakes or something, but if you had a ranged daemon unit it might be too close to brimstone horrors or flamers. I think there's lots of room to play with daemon infused mecha while still avoiding overlap with CSM in 40k though. Getting the k'dai destroyer would technically be new as it never saw the table and it would be a great place to start. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I was in charge of chorf refresh I’d give them an “immortals” type unit: guys who’ve been partially turned to stone/magma and can be revived by a daemon smith. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Immortals should be the "Hammerers" heros guard role, still the idea of partially "petrified" dwarves Is not that bad. Or maybe just "possessed" duardin,empowered like their daemon machines. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Krungharr Posted August 31 Share Posted August 31 The new Bloodbowl Chorfs will be a welcome addition, and can make both my Hearthguard Berzerkers with flaming flails, and they can double as my Chaos Warriors; the new resin Centaurs could push or pull a chariot (my old metal Bloodbowl Chorfs are already my Chosen, and Hthark is my Lord on Daemonic Mount).

Guess they could be my other unit of Knights so I wouldn't have to do more conversions. (got 12 all converted bull-centaur Varanguard and Knights so far) I have 3 magmic fyre-spitters that I gave weapon arms and vague bearded faces for my Old World K'daai. They're on 50mm bases now to be my Ogroids, but should I make 3 more? Would they absolutely need a Myrmidon? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snorri Nelriksson Posted Tuesday at 06:18 AM Share Posted Tuesday at 06:18 AM Imho they Will blend old and new,big hats but also those Mask we saw in the rulebook(similar to the Horns ones). Maybe they Will do like Azgorh legion and blend both style. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
