I'm moderately curious...
There will be interesting new miniatures that will be scalped and will no more appear in the stock, before i will have a chance to buy them?
FOMO is a blight that needs to be purged. All it does is encourage scalpers because why would they NOT buy the entire stock when they know that supply won't keep up with demand anyway?
I get peeved off enough when I try to buy something that isn't part of a FOMO but the supply vanishes at ludicrous speeds regardless. Never you mind what happens when I want to buy something which is going to fall under the FOMO umbrella.
But onto less... infuriating... subjects.
How many battletomes is the current edition of AoS missing? Might be seeing some lizard love this reveal. Maybe the new battletome and some new skink sculpts to replace the old ones... (heh)...
And if we DO get new skink sculpts, we're one step closer to lizardmen leaving the Legacy Race status in Old World, because they'll have different models they can use compared to Seraphon. I say one-step closer, because the big dinos are likely not getting replaced anytime soon... though I suppose the original metal Kroq-Gar could take the place of the saurus on carnosaur.
And yes, I know this is just wishful thinking. Let me snort my hopaine. *
SNORT* MMMMM.... That's the good stuff.
Moving away from skinks... there is the possibility of Saurus Guard getting new sculpts, but I think a while back somebody here mentioned that the temple guard are likely getting phased out?
Moving away from the scaley bois entirely... I think new Chaos Warrior models for the Old World was implied. The marauders got updated models, the old Chaos Warriors aren't even shown on the GeeDubs webstore... it goes without saying that an announcement of the new Arcane Journal will come, with the reveal of the new warriors. Do I think the Chaos Warriors needed updating? Nope. If we wanted that, we could just buy some of the AoS ones. but whatever.
Again, I don't know what more battletomes are actually left for the current AoS edition. But it's not like I'm keeping a close eye. GeeDubs have annoyed me to the point that I'd rather just use other/NON-GEEDUBS rulesets and say they're set in whichever setting that pleases me.
Actually been having most of my fun of late with Five Leagues from the Borderlands and saying that it's set in Warhammer Fantasy. Who needs friends anyway?
Unless they are about to announce Old World Second Edition - which I hope not, I am sick of edition turnover - I doubt they will reveal Kislev, as much as people online still really want them. And are annoyed because in the original reveal that the Old World was coming GeeDubs bigged up Kislev. Regardless, if/when Kislev comes, it will be as a new edition's big new faction.
Horus Heresy... No clue. I don't keep up with that.
Necromunda... No clue. I think a rulebook that is about how to include non-player factions would be cool. I've seen homebrewed rules for Space Marines as essentially "neutral" threats to all players on the table. I think getting official rules for that would be quite cool; especially if they actually make them accurate to the setting's scale. A space marine appearing in Necromunda in-between the gangers having a fight should feel like a nigh-unstoppable monster that is only survived, not overcome.
Won't happen though.
Blood Bowl... been a while since I looked at anything related to that. Is there anything left that hasn't got a representation in Blood Bowl? Well, I suppose if nothing else, it could be "here's a new edition with "refined" rules".
Kill Team... no clue.
40k... probably a reminder that the Steel Legion
will have its own models, we solemnly swear! The "just paint Krieg yellow" was a joke, please stop lynching us!"
Anything I might have missed?
oh, right... Sorry
@NIGHTBRINGER, pretty sure they won't have any announcements regarding 8th Edition WFB. I'm sure your heart bleeds. I know how much you were hoping for a sequel to Tamurkhan: The Throne of Chaos. XD
