Are you sure it's covered? The mouth looks visible to me.

I like the knight-heraldor. That's a cool ability he has to make units think twice about terrain cover.

If I get the chance I probably will buy that one, their paladin keyword helps Bretonnian infantry.

Yes yes! It's visible, what I mean is that if you continue the line from the horn, it will probably go to the mouth, but it looks just on the eye due to the perspective, I think. Like if he/she (who knows) was about to blow, no?

I don't like any of these two single models, but love the prosecutors since they came out in the starter set (I think I bought that set just for them...

).

So, probably during September they will close the Khorne side, a battletome will come out for them, and we will start seeing other races new models from October?

It's got to be time for a 40k month doesn't it? Those guys have to be feeling neglected by now.

Baron von Klatz · « **Reply #103 on:** September 09, 2015, 01:35:37 PM »

Indeed, I've been hearing some grumbling on their part. I imagine we'll see a 40k interlude before the next AoS releases.

Oxycutor · « **Reply #104 on:** September 09, 2015, 02:06:31 PM »

Rumours are pointing to a week or maybe two of AoS, then Tau, then perhaps back to AoS, or maybe on to 30k.

That particular photo of the Knight-Heraldor looks better than the previous one, which clearly had the trumpet to his eye, and the lips were gold like the rest of him. The photo on the warscroll looks to be a slightly different paint job, so maybe the pose is better done, and the paint job.

Still, after the World Cup in 2010, I wanted to stick every trumpet/vuvuzela into the nearest eye to shut the damn things up.

Gankom · « **Reply #105 on:** September 09, 2015, 08:10:40 PM »

I like trumpet man really. Not overly fond of how big the trumpet itself is, but the pose looks pretty cool. Really like the way he has his sword, and I can see lots of conversion ideas for him.

I heard the same schedule wise. Another week or two of AoS, some 40K for a bit, then probably a mix of 40K and Aos for a bit longer.

I think labors of Hercules would be a easier task than that.

StealthKnightSteg · « **Reply #108 on:** September 17, 2015, 10:06:08 AM »

So next up seems to be the Khorne Bloodbound Battletome with 2 hero's Skullgrinder and Slaughterpriest and some repacks. next week will be the last release for Khorne Bloodbound: (new?) Bloodthirster is rumored

Oxycutor · « **Reply #109 on:** September 17, 2015, 10:16:42 AM »

Yeah, I heard named Bloodthirster as Skarbrand. I suspect it's the new Bloodthirster that was released for End Times Archaon with an extra sprue to make a Skarbrand specific build, rather than an entirely new model. But we'll see

StealthKnightSteg · « **Reply #110 on:** September 17, 2015, 10:28:00 AM »

Also the new Battle Boards is still in the up and go somewhere to be expected.. but still unsure..
And what will be the next thing AoS will be offering?

Oxycutor · « **Reply #111 on:** September 17, 2015, 12:05:41 PM »

I think the new Realm of Battle board will be the last thing we see for AoS for a few weeks, back to Tau for 40k. I've heard for most of the year, of a forthcoming 30k game. There have been sprue pics, so it's when not if. Most rumours said November.

Also heard that there will be a new Bloodbowl. But that rumour crops up this time every year, and I think it's bollocks. I'll believe that if I ever see any evidence to back it up. Much as I would love a new Bloodbowl, can't see it happening.

They're is a new Blood Bowl, but as far as I've heard it's digital only. Blood Bowl 2. Haven't heard anything about new table top, but that would be cool.

Tum podem exulit horridulum is Latin. According to everybody but you.

Fidelis von Sigmaringen · « **Reply #114 on:** September 17, 2015, 10:27:52 PM »

It is perhaps Latin according to everyone who does not know Latin grammar and declension.

Yeah, but this rumour said October, and the video game is out next week. And the original rumour indicated that it meant tabletop, as it's no secret that the video game is coming out.

StealthKnightSteg · « **Reply #116 on:** September 19, 2015, 06:48:14 PM »

So some news about the Undead!
There are 3-4 audio files coming telling the tail of a Stormhost in the realm of death running from a khorne warband, finding a Von Carstein!
So where is this going then!

So undead next faction to gain some shape?

Gneisenau · « **Reply #117 on:** September 19, 2015, 06:58:51 PM »

I would appreciate that. About time we get some proper order.

Baron von Klatz · « **Reply #118 on:** September 19, 2015, 08:09:25 PM »

That's really interesting, thanks for the info!

My guess is they're going to focus on the undead and Skaven, maybe some Duardin as well.

I'm looking forward to seeing what they do with the undead.

StealthKnightSteg · « **Reply #119 on:** September 19, 2015, 08:29:22 PM »

So say one more warscroll coming for the Bloodthirster then Khorne Bloodbound has 17 now 18 then. Stormcast now has 17. So looks like the amount of Warscrolls isn't one on one comparable per faction.

Baron von Klatz · « **Reply #120 on:** September 19, 2015, 09:59:41 PM »

Just like the old warhammer armies then.

StealthKnightSteg · « **Reply #121 on:** September 21, 2015, 04:03:43 PM »

So Skarbrand it is, and he looks MEAN!

Baron von Klatz · « **Reply #122 on:** September 21, 2015, 09:52:33 PM »

Oxycutor · « **Reply #123 on:** September 22, 2015, 09:11:34 AM »

Wow, they actually went for a completely new kit, and not an upgrade sprue for the existing fairly new Bloodthirster kit.

And, new plastic flesh hounds as well?

I guess this was it for the first stream of Khorne dudes, maybe on a suplement release schedule

Here are the supposed rules for Skarbrand (BOLS):

Quote

The basics:
Move 8, Save 4+, 14 Wounds
Two axes that Hit on 4+, Wound on 3+

via Albrecht de Nuln 9-21-2015

Ok, here are his rules for AoS

In each of your hero phases look, check and see how much damage he has. If he was not able to attack in any of the combat phases last round, then he is always Incandescent -really really mad-

There are 6 abilities to choose from and these last until the next hero phase.

0-3 wounds he is angry- gain 1 ability
4-6 wounds he is furious- gain 2 abilities
7-9 wounds he is seething- gain 3 abilities
10-12 wounds he is enraged- gain 4 abilities
13 wounds he is incandescent- gain 5 abilities

Abilities
Roar: pick a unit and roll one die for every level of rage. on a 4+ inflicts mortal wounds
re-roll charge distance
re-roll all failed to hit rolls for slaughter -one axe
re-roll all failed to hit rolls for carnage- the other axe
re-roll all failed wound rolls for slaughter
re-roll the dice to see if he inflicts total carnage -special rule -which increases based on wound
