So that's the End Times mount rumor. Impressive!

Lord_Crom · « **Reply #176 on:** November 07, 2015, 05:41:55 PM »

I really like the new model...not enough to turn to chaos. I wonder if he can still be fielded on the horse.

Also I was optimistic with lizard repack that nothing really got shelved and thought same might be true for humans but then there are two armies needing to be squeezed into one so perhaps I should just stop kidding myself.

Baron von Klatz · « **Reply #177 on:** November 08, 2015, 09:41:13 PM »

Why do the two armies need to become one?

If a faction like the dwarves can find themselves split into two factions then why does everyone think the other factions are getting simplified. The Sylvaneths have no wood elves with them as well.

Gankom · « **Reply #178 on:** November 09, 2015, 03:19:43 AM »

Indeed if anything factions are getting broken up into smaller more themed factions. Wood elves AND tree spirits. Dwarfs AND berserker dwarfs.

Rumored to come: New campaign book with Tzeentch release and Battletome!

http://www.belloflostsouls.net/2015/11/gw-latest-tzeentch-is-coming.html

For next week: bigger paint bottles and other stuff (tape measure, bags etc)

Double the volume for shades (washes) from what I've read. Will be useful for Nuln Oil and Agrax Earthshade, which I use a lot of.

Very expensive tape measure, hope it's a bit more robust than their basic one. and a sort of backpack which can hold a crusade case

Taking the Tzeentch Rumours with a pinch of salt. It is from Hastings, but people over on Warseer do have a tendency to go overboard and assume a rumour means something else.

StealthKnightSteg · « **Reply #181 on:** November 10, 2015, 12:54:09 PM »

well Hastings has been right on all/most of the new releases, so I tend to follow his news closely over on Warseer.

Sig · « **Reply #182 on:** November 10, 2015, 01:56:30 PM »

Looks like he doesn't have the Eye any more, but he shouldn't have the Slayer of Kings either, since Sigmar obliterated it.

No joke. I've gone through gallons of flesh wash/chestnut ink/obeys flesh, etc.

Can't say I like the new Archaon model. It looks overdesigned and lacks that sense of nobility the old one had.

StealthKnightSteg · « **Reply #185 on:** November 23, 2015, 07:07:03 PM »

Besides the new Archeon model 2 sets to complement your Stormcasts or Khorne coming up on pre-order saturday

StealthKnightSteg · « **Reply #186 on:** November 23, 2015, 07:50:18 PM »

Stormcast box (160 Euro) saves 42 Euro (2 sets of Judicators, 1 set of Paladins, 1 set of Prosecutors, 1 castellant = 202Euro)
Khorne box (160 Euro) saves 42 Euro (Skarr Bloodwrath, 1 set of bloodreavers (20), set of blood warrors (10), 1 set of Skullreapers (5), 1/2 set of Skullcrushers (3 instead of 6) = 202Euro)

Lord_Crom · « **Reply #187 on:** November 30, 2015, 02:57:24 PM »

Just read Archaon's rules. He would be a tough (aka impossible) fight for my little Empire army as I have only 1 cannon and no other artillery (I should be ashamed to call myself Empire).

Imagine it would be awful for a Chaos player to spend £100 on the model, spend ages painting him and expect the win only to have him blasted by 3 cannons.

With that thought in mind is he weaker than the 8th edition version of him. Didn't he used to have a silly ward save?

StealthKnightSteg · « **Reply #188 on:** November 30, 2015, 05:52:15 PM »

Haven't read the new rules very well yet, so can't really say.. nor do I know the old rules very well, though it seems some have been kept the same.

In other news:
Read a rumor that January is getting Duardin, both factions: Steamhead Duardin (pressumably most repacks of current range) and Fyreslayers (Slayers with new additions)

Also saw on FB a post on a new Battletome for "The Everchosen" Archaon and new knights (Varanguard) atleast. As Archaon is now housed on Varanspire. in next WD.

Baron von Klatz · « **Reply #189 on:** November 30, 2015, 08:42:31 PM »

Good lord those look epic! I might give those a go with a Bretonnian conversion.

I'm feeling a bit sorry for chsos players. Between this, the last chaos releases for AoS and 40k and the total war pre-order I'm betting their wallets are a bit empty.

Syn Ace · « **Reply #190 on:** November 30, 2015, 09:26:51 PM »

I like Archaon and the new figs.

Acadian · « **Reply #191 on:** December 03, 2015, 09:19:33 PM »

Looking at the prices of all miniatures,
i think a lot of people wallets are empty

Looking at the miniatures, my wallet remains completely full.

StealthKnightSteg · « **Reply #193 on:** December 05, 2015, 11:14:55 PM »

So I was reading through the WD today and saw a mention about the warscrolls in Everchosen.. 2 we know Archaon and the Varanguard.
But there seems to be also something called: Gaunt Summoners other then this some battalion scrolls and battleplans in the battletome

Oxycutor · « **Reply #194 on:** December 06, 2015, 11:01:39 AM »

Gaunt Summoners is to do with the new Tzeentch sorcerer on disc, which is likely next weeks release.

I only just saw the price tag for these new Chaos Knights and I'm amazed. GW's pricing policy has reached a new sphere of ridiculous. How can anyone justify to pay so much for so little?

Sharkbelly · « **Reply #196 on:** December 07, 2015, 02:33:17 AM »

How can anyone justify paying so much for plastic toys? Yet we do...

Baron von Klatz · « **Reply #197 on:** December 07, 2015, 06:48:35 AM »

Haha, indeed! There's just something about a painted army that really can't be matched.

This poll in the dakkadakka site shows that AoS has gotten more than a few wallets moth-ridden.

Interestingly, another poll on favorite warhammer fantasy factions actually has the Stormcast in the lead with vampires close behind. I voted for Bretonnia, myself.

Also, the leaked fire slayer sprues have the dwarf players very excited.

While "more than a few" is correct, it may give a bit the wrong impression. True, 25% spent more than 250$, but 56% spent nothing at all.
