These are all the rumours so far: If you look at the dates, this guy seems to be a reliable source. Edit: Removed the pics from the discord conversation.

JackStreicher Posted September 7 Share Posted September 7 I had a game with the expedition force today (forgot about the miner markers x_X). It was still fun. I almost tabled Tomb Kings. The Doomseekers are great, yet die fast. Gyros are annoying but don’t do much. The Thane with exploding multishots is awesome (doesn’t feel too strong though). The Sapper was kind of useless (I forgot the thunderer upgrade as well xD) My dwarf Warriors absolutely got their beards handed to them by 30 Skeletons with spears x_X The cannon was ok. The Bolt thrower hit once all game. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old rumors from Valrak about Empire release were : - New general/captain kit - new 2/3 Wizards ( hedge wizards to fit timeline) - new artillery piece/ war machine ( can fit Nuln army of infamy ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was thinking about whether to get some Flagellants and Militia or wait to see if they were updated. It doesn’t sound like they will be… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No new knights is a bummer. Edited September 7 by Tonhel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tonhel Posted September 7 Share Posted September 7 (edited) Also the poster that posted everything that turned out to be true also posted a couple of days ago that when GW said that the scope of the project changed/expanded, they really meant it, that TOW is in a really good shape for the years to come and that GW actual sees value in investing more on TOW. So the future seems bright for us TOW fans, but we just have to be patient. Edited September 7 by Tonhel 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skaven not returning to tow for now😱😂, nah I thought this might happen, still though, I’m going to keep playing them in that system, especially now with the new models. already ordered myself 20 Poisomed wind globadier and 40 Stormvermins to be used in that system 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bosskelot Posted September 8 Share Posted September 8 Makes sense considering Skaven were originally meant to be the 4th Evil faction, but got yanked out when the AOS team decided to refresh the range. That's also why there's no Beastmen models in the rulebook; they were not originally planned for. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems strange sincerely: 1) During the creation of old world map from 2020 beastmen icons always been there ( while never been Skaven icons) 2) Beastmen really belong to the forests of ( geographical) old world and they are natural counterparts of wood elves . so beastmen are auto include in ToW settings while for Skaven you could pretend they are so busy in “ underground civil war “ at this timeline. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty much, although we might maybe said see a huge campaign, showing the war during the skaven second great campaign. after all manfred skavenslayer needs a story Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a bit of stuff in The Loathsome Ratmen and All Their Vile Kin, and the WFRP 2E skaven supplement about them getting up to minor shenanigans post Great War though! 🐀🧀 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackStreicher Posted Wednesday at 08:35 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 08:35 PM Guys I need your advice/vote. My biggest issue is usually to settle for a faction (I mostly play a different faction each game) I‘ve got two Lists: Dark Elves (DE) and Wolves of the Sea (WotS) DE: Chariot Lord, Assassin, big block of spears, lot‘s of scouts (Dark Riders 15 shades), 2x10 Witch Aelves and a lv Sorceress ready to Doppelgänger the sword of might. Don‘t forget the Pet „Mrglmrgl“ the Kharibdyss proxy. WotS: Jarl Baalgruf (aspiring champ on mount), 6 huscarls, Lv4 Sorceress with 15 chaos warriors, 3 skin wolves, 30 Marauders with Flails and shields and a Tribe chieftain, 3x6 Berserkers and to round it all off 2x Giant Chaos Spawn. So lots of ambush. my enemy will be Khemri. I like both lists, yet I can‘t decide which to take help! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
