They'll still be oozing with character when they've gotten a trim. When I paint and build stuff I do not want to create minis which try and draw your attention everywhere at once. Which is what some of these are suffering from.
Really interested on seeing how you approach the minis. I was thinking the same. Some minis have too much stuff for me. For example I wouldn't mind removing the shields from the fusiliers or the cannon.

The army have 52 warscroll not 54.
If it is 52, we are done, right?

Ok, why did this have to be the one leak I sleep through?
Everything looks so good!!! I just hope that the Pontifex has a generic build option, and that we get a elite infantry unit either now or a later wave.
Also, I'm thinking those minis on top of the image (Arch-Knight, Surgeon, etc.) could be one kit like 40k Command Squads. Would be an insta-buy for me.
Seems that the big heroes doesn't have generic option to me, but it is nice starting to see some known heroes on the CoS army. Hopefully they get some nice histories behind with the years.

So, all the old Warscrolls stay the same (not necessarily a given), we should now know all of the 54 of them.

- Thalia Vedra
- Warhulk
- Ironweld Great Cannon
- Arch Knight
- Pontifex
- Soul Shepard
- Whisperblade
- Great Herald (with Mascot Gargoylian?)
- War Surgeon
I am making the assumption that the Mascot Gargoylian does not get their own warscroll but shares it with another hero like the Relic Envoy and the Marshall.
I've seem some messages about the Soul Shepard, Whisperblade, Great Herald and all those being just 1 warscroll. That would leave room for more stuff as whitefang said.

Synergy within the army will probably uplift them qutie a bit. I'm almost certain that I already saw an order on that one preview image that lets castellite units like the cannon shoot twice.
Here's a potentially interesting observation: The Hurricanum is no longer a "Celestial Hurricanum with Battlemage", but rather a "Battlemage on Celestial Hurricanum". Could this mean that we are treating them and the Luminark only as mounts now and losing the Mage-less versions?
That was my conclusion as well. That's why we have room for more reveals as Whitefang confirmed!

Thank you. You hero! This range renewal is simply the best work done by GW in years.
About the lack of units and having too much heroes, I think I prefer it this way. We have a lot of different minis taste, and as more units would be removed from CoS and/or renewed, we would have newer and more variety on units later on.- 3

Apparently the delay for 30k epic is because of an embarrassing error printed in the rulebook so they've had to reprint.
An embarrassing error in this case using a real world quote from a real world historical regime that might be a lil' bit yikes.
Wow. It would be interesting to see the quote. Is it really something that big to reprint it all?

This delay announcement makes it understandable why Underworlds skavens are being released next week instead of autumn, and why august collectible coin (which probably should have been Legion Imperialis) has still not been announced on WarCo.
So it seems that the change of warehouses is still causing GW logistical problems... I'm starting to worry about COS army set.
I think I saw the Legion Imperiales coin already. I am not fully sure where I saw it or how that user got it.

Considering how epic the Vindicare sniper was Id love to see something done in the same vein for AOS.
Think about it, we already have it 😅. It is the Fusil-Major on Ogor Warhulk, same concept but translated from 40k to AoS. And we even won an Ogor!

I wonder if that email was a mistake. Last year they talked about year 2 shows on August 10th and revealed the minis on August 14th.
I was expecting something yesterday but since nothing was revealed, I think we'll have to wait until next week.
Could be possible, yes.
I know it is HH day, as it was mentioned above, but if the mail was right I don't see the minis being announced on a Friday nor a Weekend. Lets see if today is the lucky day.- 1

Today seems the most feasible day to see the new W+ minis, right? What would be your bet?
40k: Odds say some sort of Marine ofc, 99,9% Lieutenant, but I would say it is a cool looking Tyranid to be in line with Leviathan.
AoS: I think we will see a CoS Wizard from a different college than the one form the army box. Maybe a mage from Azyr?- 4

Where are those CoS Battletome pics 🧐?!

Yeah though I do feel the new Freeguild look more "duardinified" than the Empire ever was "dwarfified". That's why I really don't mind WFB Dispos next to AoS Freeguilds. They look great next to eaxh other despite the disparity in age. In fact, I'd be happy if Dispos stick around in AoS and don't get shelved to TOW like the Empire and High Elves got. They have a pretty nice roster (3 heroes, 3 melee units including one elite, 1 ranged unit, 2 warmachines), that's already a lot and more than some AoS armies get (like SoB). I hope they stay long term.
I don't know if you recall those post stamps GW sold, but the dispo were there under ToW wording. Imo that's a clear message.

Btw, I've seen lot of talks about old models from factions such us Skavens and Beasts of Chaos. I think we can all agree that sooner or later all WHF minis would be replaced or removed, right? In that case, which WHF mini would you say has the higher chances to stay in AoS as it is for the long term.
Imo that mini could be easily Nagash. I had no clue that was initially done for WHF, and it is surprisingly good for the time it has. -
We should open The Potato Thread 😁

What if next saturday is both armyset preorder and special preview for the rest of Cities ???
Doubt it. One third party seller told me that we should expect CoS army box for early Sept.

I'm definitely at the point where the wait for news has become a touch frustrating. The gap between reveal and release for cities has been almost as long as it was for sisters and we've had about half the number of articles. There hasn't been a single lore article yet. They could easily have done one for each of the cities. I'm ready to see a contents page and even a blurry pic or two though I normally don't like leaks.
That's not fair, imo.
We got five short stories. Dawnbringers campaign is literally all about CoS, some CoS flavour on Hammer an Bolter an lore hints on the different reveal articles...
It looks quite well prepared for me.

Seeing the acutal COS Battletome definitely makes it all seem more real.
I most likely won’t (but never say never) start a COS army, but I feel this is the most important army to be added to AOS.
While stormcast are cool in their own style, I have always felt there was a huge need/desire for regular human army. While they aren’t the brettonia of yesteryears, I’m overly impressed with how subtle but modern their take on this design space has been.
They appear to have set themselves up for an endless supply of updates for them as well. This army could easily get 5 kits a year and never seem to be too much because people will be able to use what they don’t like and use what they like. I’m feeling this army is a win win.
While AOS has rapidly been growing since the pandemic, could this army be the one that completely blows the game up and entice a lot of new players?
Wouldn't surprise me if it helps indeed to bring players into AoS as there's many studies about picking races in videogames where human is always the most appealing as we feel closer to them, but the price increasing over and over yearly would always be a problem to bring new players, imo.

Lets think for a moment Malerion and new Dwarven faction are released and we only have humans left in CoS. Old stuff is removed as well. How many units would we need to have a solid army? I think we would have more renewals not so far in time, but there's the chance of not getting anything else soon.
