    We might get lucky and have the warband's AoS warscroll be good enough to be worth using as-is? Knowing the underworld warscroll track record, probably not, but at least it might be fun to play around with listbuilding or something.

    The skink in charge being referred to in singular They in the new corebook is pretty interesting too, with what it implies about Skinks in the mortal realms having actual gender (which i guess makes sense, they're a lot more social and integrated into free cities society than before). It might just be awkward wording, but one of the Kurinothi is explicitly the same, and AoS in general features a few characters with that sort of pronouns going on so it's not outlandish

    Lizard men have always deflated to he when referred to in the singular, most references to our old world named heroes call them he so i wouldn't read to much into it

    to have your own Nakai, IMO you should build your kroxigor units with GW models, then pick just one "kroxi" from a different company... choose an imposing figure and paint it albino.

    Yeah, going back to the Warhammer community post “they” Is definitely intentionally used as the pronouns for this skink priest, but I definitely don’t think skink gender is going to be explored much in fiction or anything. It just gives a lot of interesting stuff to think about!

    Given that there's already been precedence in the lore for Lizardmen/Seraphon to be genderless for about as long as there have been references to spawning pools, it strikes me as odd that the use of a gender-neutral pronoun set would be seen as a big deal to begin with.

    It's highly probable that is the prelude to our incoming underworlds band

    We've had a lot of hammerhal heralds in the past 12 months, with some hinting at a Lizard v DoK rivalry. Would be neat to see some lizards in Broken Realms.

    Underworld band was announced to be released on February. But it was before delay announcements. So, March, I believe.

    To be honest, a box introducing a new DoK cavalry versus new seraphon knights led by a starseer would be quite neat. Plus, it'd make sense from the lore, Morathi should've been annihilated from orbit by the Slann the moment she started screwing with Slaanesh's bindings.

    I just got the notification that my 5 boxes of drakespawn knights that I ordered for conversions shipped from GW. I'd have mixed emotions if they released a new saurus knights kit now...

    So it's a starpriest and not a starseer. Makes me hopefull that hammerhald was somehting else, but I doubt I should be that optimistic.

    Also, looks like the next warband is finally going to show us the undead-ish stuff with the rapiers they've been teasing for so long.

    It also looks a little elvish. But vampires have pointy ears in Warhammer, right?

    It looks like they used this warband to make alpha models for our skink units. We have a javelin and buckler alpha, and blowpipe and club alpha and a club and buckler alpha.

    What do you all think is going to happen with the Winter FAQ? Do you guys remember when they previously nerfed Kroak and made him unplayable? Because I do...
