    Oh yes, there were some female Kharadron models released for their 2nd wave not long ago... particularly this minger to attract girls who like mutilating their noses to the army...

    Now, this normally wouldn't be too bad as one could use an alternative head option from the kit or carefully file off the nose ring, but of all the new models teased as part of that wave, why the frak did they have to put HER front and centre on the Battletome cover?

    Between this lass and the female Stormcast models with lesbian chav-cuts, GW are really sending the wrong sort of message to women right now...

    I'm honestly not sure what they mean by the additional mount rules for Tomb Kings, as all the mounts their characters currently access are available in the Ravening Hordes book... but it'll be interesting to see if they've come up with some new ideas for future mounted character models.

    In general though, all the Arcane Journals are optional (except the Cathay one of course if one wants to play that army) - you can play a game of TOW perfectly fine with just the base army lists in the Forces of Fantasy and Ravening Hordes books, and those are the only real essentials... the Journals just add the Armies of Infamy, named characters, additional Magic Items and other things to spice up your games.

    I liked the look of the Leagues of Votann Wave 2 stuff, but principally for the purposes of writing a 6th Edition Codex for them :p, and the new Necrons from Kill Team are lovely, as all Necrons are.

    Otherwise...

    Don't think so.
    but if i will ever start a new army for TOW, it will be CD.

    Do we wanna talk about Astra Militarum and Ursula Creed?

    Even the new model of Lotara Sarrin for HH (with the subtitle "mistress of the warmaster") was imo a missed opportunity

    There's only one Castellan Creed of the Imperial Guard...

    ...And he is not the Warhammer counterpart of Sandi Toksvig ready to present another episode of QI :p

    Hmm... as a cyborg serving the fanatical, blood-crazed World Eaters it would be more difficult to make her suitably feminine, but she could at least have long mechatendrils as hair.

    I would have liked something with a more calm attitude and authoritative presence

    After all, she was able to debate with Angron without being killed

    I mean, they were always going to get practical, military style haircuts and wear the basic military gear. Much more than a vaguely female shaped head, and maybe a female catachan, isn't really going to happen for the guard. What more did you expect?

    I mean, she is a follower of Khorne. Calm isn't exactly a description you use for those.
