That has to be the limited version with the army set.

Is it? I don't pay much attention to AoS books, but most of GW's 'limited edition' books these days are usually exactly the same but with the brand overlays removed from the art.

Or something similar- with the Thondia book they just took out the red from the top, shrank the logo and gave the sigil a color gradient.

I strongly suspect so. It matches with the others we've seen for Orks in 40K, Lumineth, Sisters, and so on.

The army set books tend to be extremely unique these days.

This is something i would love, so we are 100% sure to not get them.

Since the big guy is the DP, that makes this dude Be'lakor's BFF

He does have a big sword and the skin color matches Bella.

That's what I think too. The winged model is confirmed to be the new Daemon Prince since he was on that page of the book.

I still think they should have just declared the Warcry bands to be marauders and not tried to give them all their own rules (and made them largely inferior to generic marauders)

**GaroRobe**

Does it look like the DP only has a "daemonic axe" on his warscroll? That doesn't bode well for options in this new kit...

It says "Daemonic Axe" followed by "Hellforged Sword" and "Malefic Talons".

It has

Demonic Axe
Hellforged Sword (unmodified hit roll of 6 = D3 mortal wounds)
Malefic Talons

"armed with 1 of the following, Demonic Axe or Hellforged Sword or Malefic Talons, in addition it has wings or a trophy rack"

Horns of Hashut are listed alongside the Warcry Warbands, so these may be a new option being previewed at Warhammer Fest?
We all expected that the Warhammer Fest previews would be telling us about things we already knew about, and with these leaks, that appears to be coming true.

Not sure it really counts if we only know the name due to some muppet leaking things, especially less than a week before the preview.

Not like it'd be showing up studio photos we've already seen, though I'm sure that's happened before.

I like that the chosen muscisian is called a skull drummer. Becaus the old model had a skull drum.

But this guy doesn't. Unless he has options???

Isn't there a skull on his drumstick?

**cole1114**

man if I didn't already love my balrog conversion I'd want that new DP so bad...

would be difficult with all the different base sizes and such. Also would be a little immersion breaking if the Ogor Breacher or the Untamed Beasts' Lion or the Serpent swarm were all just 1W 6+ save 1 4+/4+ - 1 attacks.

Base sizes don't mean squat in GW games anymore. The ogre is a problem, but the rest is fine (and weren't marauders base 2 attacks in the last battletome?)

**Rihgu**

Having played GW games in the last few years, I can safely say base sizes do mean squat.

Closeups of the warscroll.

10w bad(bat's), thankfully bloodslick ground goes, nurgle looks interesting

do what now? 25mm bases are extraordinarily important in AOS for 1" weapons to fight thru friends.

**GaroRobe**

Any chance the close up of the warscroll also shows a clear version of the DP?

Yes, that's what I'm sayin. I was replying to a poster who said they "don't mean squat". It's the opposite, which means they must mean squat.

There’s a better image on Reddit

**ArcaneHorror**

That model looks dope. And I love how you don't dare target a Tzeentch prince with psychic attacks.

**Old-Four-Arms**

Skull on left hip could be alternative head (helmet) part ?

EDIT : or kneepad due to angle..

**Rihgu**

I don't see that guy being a dual kit with the other guy, unless they have whole different feet on the sprue

**Togusa**

Is it possible that the rumors of Skaven being the summer Chaos book are incorrect and it's actually going to be STD?

**CMLR**

HORNS OF HASHUT!!!!

Automatically Appended Next Post:
Also, I hope this means there are actual multi-part Warriors and Knights now.

**cole1114**

Really interested in the centaurion marshal/chaos legionnaires. Those names put together make me think of like a chaos professional army. Maybe like the chaos version of lothern sea guard?

**Kanluwen**

It's Chaos Dwarfs...

Would mean somebody has too much time faking box art. Also wording gw described chaos book originally didn't sound std. Skaven or tzeentch. Vigilant fits sylvaneth.
