GW News: SKAVEN VICTORY! #NewAoS

Sorry mate you’re confusing me even more

 

Hahaha... that would be so funny! Admittedly, that would amuse me greatly.

 

I would absolutely love for it to be a Seraphon update, but if I was to place bets I would say it’s going to be the opening of the SCE Ruination Chamber. Boring but in all likelihood probably a sound business strategy. With the music, it could just be that they used the same composer as TW, so personally I wouldn’t get your hopes too high. Seraphon Battletome however, I think is more of a matter of when as opposed to if. With a bit of luck, we’ll be high up the list for a Beasts of Chaos style update amongst the Order armies.

 

You'd be amused by SCE? Clearly the apocalypse is nigh.

 

Not amused by the SCE themselves, but rather GW's obsessive focus of them. Heck, make every AoS release a SCE one, maybe then others might come around to my line of thinking (insert evil cackle). In any event, I haven't bought a new GW model in YEARS, so it makes little difference to me!


So no apocalypse, my thinking is still the same... just from a more twisted point of view!

 

Honestly I’d be so annoyed if that happened. We only just had the stupid Sacrosanct Chamber last year!

 

Do not worry my friend, there are more chambers to be opened... many more.

 

Just the thought of it makes me feel unwell

 

I believe that there are 4 chambers remaining that still haven't opened up yet.

 

I think they should stay closed

 

Nice catch, GW sometimes uses assets created by those they have sold the rights to make video and board games to. It might be a super subtle hint towards the future of Seraphon releases, but i can't help but think that i have heard that music before somewhere in another GW product ad. Also the banner shows a 2 faced figure, one half Nagash the other a Sigmarine, so i have a growing suspicion that the Stormcast are getting a comeback in the miniature line...again, together with a new Death faction.

The cynic in me says that this will just be another Stormcast release with mediocre sculps and average/ above average rules with a cool looking centerpiece miniature, but the theorist inside me says that this will be a stormcast AND Seraphon release. Think about the title "Forbidden Power", maybe Sigmar has been dazzling with powers beyond his comprehension and someone who can strike Azyr thinks it would be wise to stop him, and who can actually attack Azyr? The Seraphon can. It could also be a good plot device, that would show that grand alliances don't necessarily mean that they like each other very much.

 

Oh, and also this.

 

Do not worry... that is the natural reaction to such a stimulant.

Don't worry... GW will make up more once those are open!

 

To be honest, at this point it's just becoming weird.

According to lexicanum there's 3 left: The ruination, covenant and Logister chambers.

Though I'm seriously questioning what else there is to add to the SCE. They already have a chamber for wizards and artificers, one for fast and scouting-like troops, one for heavy cavalry/monstrous nonsense, one for the normal line troops, one for their heavy elite troops. The hell else are they going to field? Mechanized troops? Spaceships?

Meh, I don't mind them much, in a world that has cloaking devices and magic a lightning throwning 10 foot tall space wizard can be a sneaky scout.

To be honest, I might actually get the box, I still have some chaos space marines from a starter box I got as a gift at one point, together it might form something resembling a playable army for small games.

 

Obviously Primaris SCE are next!

 

I heard that they are making new sculpts for all the current SCE figures followed by a re-release......
Ok...... I made that up, but stranger things have happened

 

Where did you hear that calamitous news?
