GW News: SKAVEN VICTORY! #NewAoS

Wait, they're distinguishing between French and Canadian French? As if regular French isn't already enough of a disaster of a language.

 

It's only because Quebec is aggressively French compared to the ancestral homeland.

 

WAAAAAAAAAAAAGH!!!!

FREE IRONJAWZ PDF SUPPLEMENT INCOMING WITH DE BOYS!!!!

 

GORGERS TOO?!?! DON'T MIND IF I DO!!

 

VAMPIRE TEAM! Look at the details! even the thralls have been used as a food source!

 

(A)Elves vs Slaanesh, what a classic. This time they brought a squid though!

 

Horsehuggers got another resin sleeper, wake me up when there's something TK.

FULGRIM TRANSFIGURED - for HH





HH also getting Dorito Dreadnought and MKIII Marines:

 

I'm out of order because I joined late:

New troggoth king?!, Destruction is finally moving on the Edition of Beasts:

 

All terminators things go here:

 

I expected a butchered latin name for the long awaited (and even more memed) jump pack primaris marines, but no, they're just "jump pack intercessors".

I have mixed feelings. More in this article.

 

Company heroes, multipart Veterans and codex confirmation article here:









At long last, lookable Scout Marines:

 

Can't really speak too much for the 40k stuff, though it's nice that GW finally realized that maybe it'd be a good idea to have a replacement for OOP assault squads ready to go.

As for 30k, it's a release of all time. Fulgrim looks great for anyone wanting to pursue a late-Heresy Emperor's Children army at least, and apart from Castra Ferrum box dreads becoming OOP the Deredeo more or less rounds out the generic dreadnought options for the game. With that said however, while the up-scaling of Mk III is a nice gesture to new players looking to play something other than Alpha Legion or Raven Guard, GW is likely not going to get the payday they were expecting due to the sheer quantity of Mk III stuff already out on secondhand markets.

Other than that, no opinion on the scouts or termies yet until we get pics of the sprues. I would however hate to be the unfortunate sod who gets a box of the former expecting to build a full sniper squad only to find out that you can only build one or two snipers out of the entire kit.

 

Just a Bret Damsel for TOW?

 

And a resin one at that.

Be thankful they didn't show more Brets!

 

Fine Orc models, but Ironjawz didn't need a second wave after they were folded into Orc Warclans (unless that was just a temporary affair just until they could expand Ironjawz and Bonesplitterz out). In any case, after these and Sylvaneth shit getting a second wave and Flesh Eater Courts potentially getting one soon, GW had better have some new units in store for Fyreslayers.

Yeah they needed an update. @Lizards of Renown as an Ogre player, are these of interest?

Ugh, GW just have to fit in some horrible Vampires in every space they can . This is now the third Vampire Counts team to appear in Blood Bowl, with no Tomb Kings anywhere.

As decent as the Deepkin are, GW's obsession with Elves VS Slaanesh makes me sick now. Bored to death of it.

A fine upgrade to the previous Fay Enchantress, but Forge World Resin yet again which sucks arse, and I was expecting a lot more.

Trolls are cool, nice to see Gloomspite getting something extra, though where are my new Fyreslayer units GW?

Exactly. I was honestly hoping GW would announce TOW's release in this preview, but no, they clearly think pointless 10th Edition 40K and shitty Legions Imperialis are more important. GW are clearly determined to insult Warhammer Fantasy by not releasing it's revival during its 40th anniversary.

Well, that was another grotesquely disappointing preview.

 

Well what'd I tell ya!!!

A bit weird to see a squig with an Orruk instead of a Git though.

I always like me some new Ironjawz. And they finally get their own Battletome again... I did not like them being put together with the other Orruk clans
The new Ardboys do look a bit to fancy with all of them carrying shields, I am curious If they still have the options for double smashas.

The TOW model looks like good update, nice sculpt.

The Idoneth look nice, love the Squid.

The Troll looks decent

and the rest is all beyond my interest

Grrr, !mrahil

 

The Lady mini from TOW is lovely (despite being resin) and I like the soft paint job. I'm not opposed to seeing more Bretonnians, but they are really trickling out these reveals. I imagine Tomb Kings will get their day in the preview spotlight. However, at the glacial pace of the reveals, TOW better be awesome because it feels about 1-2 more years away from release.
