Wow @Logan8054 , that is some serious sleuthing, haha! Nice! I agree that the SoB reveal will happen @ Adepticon. Feel GW likes to have a big audience when they reveal new factions. Especially one that has been so hyped yet kept underwraps.
It looks like a rudder, I think that'l be part of the faction for which we saw some boat related rumours earlier on. Januari's white dwarf also has a reference to "grott scuttlers" who compete with the KO, and the way these boats look would fit perfectly with greenskins. So I wouldn't be surprised if that's a new upcoming faction.
I see what you mean, but this boat rumour doesn't at all looks Grott-like to me: Unless they always use scrap from other factions? Gr, Imrahil
you can use rudder on flying ships as well. So maybe a hero version of a Terradon? Or maybe on a water based an amphibious dinosaur: Giant Tutle, Spinosaurus, Crocodile, stuff like that PS: The day we get Saurus Warriors with heavy Bowa on a Mosasaurus i am gone lose it
I would assume they'd mostly use salvaged scrap yeah. I mean they are greenskins, using scrap is more or less the extent of their technology
Also, as someone pointed out over at TGA I think, there is at least one artwork of a KO airship with barnacles on it. So looks like some kind of Goblin air pirates is a solid guess now. Regarding new Giants, they won't be the AoS equivalent of Knights unless GW goes totally crazy with the new models and ditches the old one. Size difference to other behemoths is not nearly as pronounced.
Well we kinda already have ours aka Saurian El dreador, with a rework of the rule he could do the job I would think anyway perhaps that why nothing came out yet!?!
@Vexcor I would throw every penny I had at an aquatic based Dino squad. I now have the incredible urge to convert the EotG into a Mosauaurus
Grotbag Scuttlers is a good guess, especially given that those ship bits look scrappy, or it could be an AoS version of Vampire Coast. The raven design on the ship part in the second image looks almost Norse, but I imagine that would be due to a Norse vessel being either stolen by Scuttlers or raised by Vampires. If it's Vampire Coast then I'd say it might arrive not long after Adepticon, whereas if it's Scuttlers I'd say they probably won't appear until the summer, as GW like either releasing new factions from different Grand Alliances close together and space out different factions from the same Grand Alliance.

could this rumor engine maybe be some kind of skink headdress? It looks feathery and also has a somewhat similar sculpt style
This was already confirmed to belong to the Lumineth spearmen as @IggyStarhost says - keep up with the hunt mate
Was playing a game against my good buddy who is a hardcore Tzeentch player( I was playing my deepkin). He agreed that Slann should be on par with kairos Fateweaver in terms of magic
fateweaver, nagash & alarielle are the only ones who should even be a challenge for Kroak. And of course tzeentch himself, but he's not a model
The Slann are supposed to be the greatest magic users. I mean they are pretty decent at the moment, but a 7 wound model that is so integral to your army feels bad in comparison to a LoC.
Going to do something I said I wouldn't. Wishlist moar. I want Tzeentch to see a Slaan across the table and shit their pants. I want every time a Chaos Daemon casts a spell on a Double to take D3 mortal wounds. Every time a Chaos Daemon casts a spell on a 9+, they take another D3 mortal wounds. I want Slaan to be able to unbind with a thought, much like the Light of DRACOTHIAN artefact, but 30" to seperate it fro. Our normal dispell, but also fit in with normal dispell range. And that's just them not being the general.
