    meh, we got some nice bits and pieces in other bits of lore. Usually in the big epic history background bits. Loads of "And then the seraphon showed up and saved the day during this important battle" or "At first they were beaten but then the seraphon did magic to travel back in time to save the day anyway". Just very lacking in detail. And it's always just 1-2 sentences at a time, so gathering it all up is a pain.

    kinda curious about the undead now. Seems a bit vampire-hunter based since it's carrying stakes.

    It looks a bit derpy to me. Disappointed but not surprised that the rumor engine wasn't a salamander after all.

    However the palanquin might make for a cool Mazdamundi conversion. It even has a hookah built in!

    Yeah the bit about our slann (the literal greatest magical species that have been practicing magic longer than the fucking gods themselves) struggling with the force field for nagash(argument for his mastery over death magic is relevant and could be utilized to justify the reason for so many of the slann being needed) realm was kinda funky imo

    why not? well because GW doesn't care about lizardmen/seraphon, like at all. and it would require them to return a character to a faction that is not Chaos or aelves

    On the topic of us getting stuff, how long has it been since they first teased our underworlds warband? When is that thing finally going to be released?

    I'm super excited for the new warband. I really want to see what this old blood looks like.

    Yep War band consists of one old blood and a bunch of skinks. We covered this 3 weeks ago when we first found out

    Yeah looks like the old blood will be the resident big guy/tough guy.

    One thing that would be kinda neat is if we got a salamander or something from it.

    I missed that info, too.

    Darn. We're just getting a saurus hero on foot for which we already have a plastic model (the Oldblood). Maybe it could be used as a Sunblood if it has a cool shield. A skink model that could proxy for a Starpriest (already plastic), a Priest (resin), or possibly a Starseer (resin) using some extra parts. The chameleon could be the alpha for a chamo unit. Then we'll get some more skinks that might get used as alphas or stegadon heroes.

    I know I shouldn't focus on AoS only, because I'm sure fans of Underworlds, and Lizards, are happy about it. I just keep telling myself that at least we're getting some models.

    Yep that's what a lot of us think. You shouldn't have to cannibalize games workshop's other games in order to get new stuff but it's what we're reduced to. And it kind of sucks that we're just getting repeats of our new stuff
