Whatever it does, I don’t mind my skink hero being named if he gets a worthwhile extra ability! I very rarely find myself giving a priest/Starpriest my artefact, or with a battalion giving me a second...
The new Rumour Engine: On the third day of December, Gw gives to me: It looks a bit Lizard like, but the extra set of eyes Halfway its beck there is what looks like a metal ring... Perhaps this is an ornament of sorts or part of an armour? Grrr, Imrahil
Looks like it could be a salamander with the bone pattern on the head, but the metal(?) coming out of the mouth doesn't seem to fit with a salamander. I suspect it won't be Seraphon related (but would love to be proved wrong).
I thought Blackstone Fortress had its final chapter already? I can see necromunda having something like this Grrr, Imrahil
Whatever it is the head could be good for salamander conversions, maybe green stuff over the extra set of eyes. But the "whiskers" coming off the mouth look great for sallies. The shapes of the plates on the head look almost fish-like
On the fourth day of December, Gw gives to me: A statue/altar/throne of some sort Is there any use of blind creatures in the lore of a particular army/race? Grrr, Imrahil
Could be Idoneth I guess, they have their blind thralls, they're also bald. Plus the subservient position fits with the thralls. The lack of facial features doesn't work though. Maybe more warcry terrain? The face without features fits with chaos in general, and warcry gets a lot of terrain anyway.
I agree on the possible Chaos/Slaanesh, or the Warcry suggestions. Just to propose an alternative, could it be something else for Necrons?
I agree that it's either Chaos or Xenos/40K. Whatever this is, it looks on the smaller size, based on the brush strokes we can see. Still, it could be close to "salamander" size.
More Slaanesh. Not sure how to feel about Slaanesh getting a lot of attention, especially with their book still being relativly new and at the time of release being rather obscenely powerfull. Doesn't feel like it should be their turn to shine again already. Model is neat though I guess.
I like that they are getting more models, slaanesh despite being one of the major chaos faction has a pretty poor selection especially considering they only had one mortal unit prior to these releases. Also slaanesh seems to be the next big deal lore wise so it makes sense they are gonna try to build momentum for the army.
