GW News: SKAVEN VICTORY! #NewAoS

I belive it is nurgle related.

 

Hahaha

I didn't want to make any assumptions. For some reason or another, people seem to get really excited about all this AoS and Stromcast stuff.

 

You´re right about the AoS part, not Stancast Assturtles.

 

Sadly, they are pretty much one and the same for me.

 

I read something on fb that indicated they ditched Bretonnia from this new GHB...couldn't even be bothered to take half a page and list off points/per unit.

What else is / will be missing?

• Tomb Kings?
• ...

 

I can't believe you haven't figured it out yet! It's so obvious!

It's a painting.

 

Poor Bretonnia... they were always shafted in terms of GW support.

 

Even if they get nothing else, if they are pointed properly, they can be competitive.

 

...if it's obvious, then get on with it, state the obvious,...

...then we'll all know the worthiness of your contemplations.

 

I saw this embedded in a bunch of commentary on farcebook:

 

Already did it. It's a painting.

 

...a painting OF?

 

Uhm, I'm most certain that is digital, but who knows, it could be oil or watercolour.

Have you seen this?

 

Well, news for us from today's entry on Warhammer-Community:

The Seraphon are one of the most improved armies in the new General’s Handbook, with new allegiance abilities, warlord traits, artefacts and two Warscroll battalions. The most powerful of these is the Lords of Space and Time allegiance ability – which lets you remove a unit and replace it anywhere on the battlefield more than 9″ from the enemy. One of the best units to combine this with is a Troglodon, which – with its increased charge range thanks to Drawn to the Screams – should be more than able to make the 9″ charge move.

There are loads of other tactical uses for this ability too; you could use it to drop a Massive Regiment of Saurus Warriors on top of a key objective or to reposition a valuable support unit like an Engine of the Gods away from a dangerous group of enemies.

Is just a preview. We have to wait until the Handbook releases to know more. Given how Seraphon are one of the most improved armies, there might be some serious buffs, also, the preview says "The most powerful of these", so we could expect to get at least one more, maybe three, like the Sylvaneth.

Also, they aren't mentioning spells so far, neither for Order or Death. And I seriously doubt that there aren't going to be new spells.
