    I started on Death - built the first Start Collecting! Malignants box, and a box of skeletons but was completely turned off by everything I read in regard to playing them... Moved on to Seraphon shortly after that.

    They definitely need help... Would love to see vampires make a proper come-back, that might tempt me to make them my second army.

    So you can play them right out the box, just like the new starter set comes with precolored plastic.

    Well, regardless of where you stand on the female Stormcast, lets get to the real issue. Aelves need to be shown! We've seen the germaphobic steampunk dwarves, now let's see how the Aelves turned out being in Slannesh.

    Is that why Genestealers used to be blue? Cause of Space Hulk.

    IF the aelves are Slaaneshi (could be cool to see some actual chaos aelves tho).

    I updated the news from the day 1 of AdeptiCon (page 28). Check it out, you might have missed a thing or two...

    My problem with the female Stormcast is that she's not stormcast not that she's female. There's still a bunch of other armies that need units or codexes but instead we're getting another stormcast

    That would actually be pretty cool. Maybe even I would buy an AoS model then (for use in 8th edition of course).
    Welcome to the Space Marine world. This has been going on in 40k for YEARS.

    Are we expecting more news out of Adepticon or this the lot?

    I feel like today everyone signed NDAs. Even my buddy there hasn't posted anything.

    If that's it I am actually a bit disappointed.
    They started off with a bang on day one and then... nothing more? Strange way of timing con announcements.

    So, yeah, there wasn't much more after all the announces from the first day (except for one little announce from FW). And I suppose that's because On that same day, many WD issues started to arrive.

    Okay:

    FW releases for Blood Bowl (dwarf Deathroller: https://www.warhammer-community.com/2017/03/24/deathroller-out-now/) and 30K (https://www.warhammer-community.com/2017/03/24/warriors-of-terra-and-machines-of-mars/).

    Warhammer Wargea, the new GW's officially licensed merchandise site: http://sales.spreadshirt.com/warhammer/EU.html

    The Gouged Eye set and Blood Bowl Troll are ready to order now: https://www.warhammer-community.com/2017/03/25/go-team-green/

    Alongside some pretty overpriced Citadel knife, saw and tweezers: https://www.warhammer-community.com/2017/03/25/tools-of-war/

    There will be a new and great-looking Custodes Jetbike: https://www.warhammer-community.com/2017/03/27/leading-the-custodian-charge/

    A Dwarf Blood Bowl team from the office: https://www.warhammer-community.com/2017/03/28/jamess-blood-bowl-dwarf-team/

    Today's Rumour Engine: https://www.warhammer-community.com/2017/03/29/rumour-engine-march-29th-2017/

    What could this be? an anchor? a metal trap? the Kharadron Battletome also mentions something about sky pirate goblins... and people who knows about them are starting to guess...

    And today starts Warhammer Digital; Black Library will focus on literature from now on, while Warhammer Digital will focus on Codexes, Battletomes, rules and supplements. To celebrate, they will give away; Black Library is giving free copies of ‘Fabius Bile – Primogenitor‘, while Digital is giving away a free Genestealer Broodlord painting guide, and you can get Imperial Knight: Renegade rules for free if you spend over £20: https://www.warhammer-community.com/2017/03/29/a-new-home-for-warhammer-digital/

    Also from today, AoS' Facebook page posted the contents from Blades of Khorne, which will be available to pre-order this weekend:

    [​IMG]

    And there is a lot more of news:

    Many pics of Kharadron models, including a size comparison between their ships, and Shadow War: Armageddon contents (don't worry, WD' pages are in english): http://www.miniwars.eu/2017/03/white-dwarf-abril.html

    This is the last resin Thunderhawk FW will make: http://battlebunnies.blogspot.mx/2017/03/the-last-resin-thunderhawk-official.html

    Some Hastings confirmations... in spanish: http://www.miniwars.eu/2017/03/rumores-thunderhawk-de-plastico.html

    1. Plastic Thunderhawk has tons of options, and costs 25-30% the resin price, around 135£.
    2. More Skaven stuff this year. Some repackages and some new models, maybe for Pestilens or Skyre.
    3. Expect to see more stuff for Blood Bowl: plastic Goblins with resin upgrades, resin Skaven upgrades, plastic Elves, more resin star players (for Death Zone 2), resin Dark Elves, a Nurgle team, and later on, plastic Chaos alongside a new minotaur. Also some new pitche,s and obviously Death Zone 2.

    Genestealers and Skitarii rules (pics in english): http://www.miniwars.eu/2017/03/cultos-genestealer-y-rangers-skitarii.html

    Again, MORE WD pics, now showing the extreme modularity of Shadow War scenery (and I mean EXTREME) and more scenery kits, as well as some new info about the Kharadron Overlords, and what will be on the next WD (again, pic in english): http://www.miniwars.eu/2017/03/imagenes-white-dwarf-abril.html

    1st of April pre-orders; Blades of Khorne and Shadow War: Armageddon (prices on US and CAD): http://www.miniwars.eu/2017/03/novedades-40k-y-age-of-sigmar.html

    Shadow War: Armageddon rules, which are heavily based on Necromunda and 40K 2nd Edition rules (that if they are not directly reused): http://www.miniwars.eu/2017/03/reglas-shadow-war-armageddon.html

    Finally, WD's index. Sorry, this time is fully in spanish, but this time they'll talk about the Kharadron Overlords; fluff, designers notes, and a battle report, and a battle report for Shadow War, on top of a building that looks like an oil refinery, on one really impressive table, using many, many Shadow War scenery kits: http://www.miniwars.eu/2017/03/white-dwarf-abril_29.html

    I'm extremely happy this month. The Kharadron Overlords models look quite good, and I can't hide my excitement for Shadow War: Armageddon.

    See you soon!

    Everyone says bone, but when I first looked at it I saw metal and wood, with rope and chains... Maybe I am alone in that one!

    I have money tucked away for a new release... I was thinking whatever Elfey goodness they have planned, but if it's goblin sky pirates I would change my mind pretty damn quickly.
