AoS NEW *rumor*

LizardWizard said:
I too am hoping this is the outcome. With any luck we will still have the sign of the Mage's Staff and the Hunter. Just getting an army wide +1 to casting is great. Add in the Saurus AB if he stays unchanged and your Trogg could be looking at an impressive +3 to casting. Maybe even we will get some bonuses to unbinding or something like a dispel scroll.

I believe the token sheet on the warscroll preview showed both the Mage's Staff and Hunter's Steed as tokens.

With the addition of bound endless spells I think throwing endless spells through portals is now much more of an option for us.

Yeah, I would honestly be surprised if any of our battalions survive intact. I am almost certain that Shadowstrike Starhost is gone or changed to no longer place the units of flyers outside of 3"

Quite true, maybe all of our stronger ones will become sub factions.
The Thunder Lizard subfaction allows behemoths to be battleline so it'll combo well with Thunderquake...unless that's what it became
 
I am really hoping Thunderquake survived. It wasn't the most op thing, and it was really fun.... Shadowstrike, I figured it would also change.

We may see some new Mega Battalions since two have been turned into Sub-factions.

True. LoSaT moving from the hero phase to the movement phase sadly means we can't jump up table, drop spells and then gtfo. Spell Portals might be the new Balewind for us.
 
I’m not trying to be negative here but the rules spoiled today sound incredibly lazy. They basically took our existing rules split them in half, said you have to pick which half you want and then gave them back to us like “look isn’t it cool? You are bravery 10!” Which is quite frankly, bullshit.

really hoping the rest of the book is new and exciting.

Yep. most our buffs/nerfs might play out over warscrolls and battalions. That being said, getting subfactions is massive. Not having to pay all the tax to bring Dracothion's Tail or FoS is amazing.

predatory fighter, the extra rend, the extra attacks are all battalion abilities, only now it sounds like only coalesced will get them. So it feels to me like they split the faction into column a and column b, and then tried to spin it as something new.
 
It is hard to really get a good picture of our factions battletome with the info we currently have. I still have hope that we will have a good depth to the rules available to us.
