That's cute. Also those new rules are intriguing.

I liked the Noble Deeds system until I realized that it will absolutely kill the ability to summon units from before. Oh well.

Clarification: I do see the text that says Abhorrent leaders can bring back whole units, but the cost is gonna be VERY heavy and VERY swingy.

Since he has rules for AOS (and 40k, I suppose) and the article mentions he makes a good proxy for a loon boss on cave squig, here's the newer christmas gobbo





Honestly, I love this one. Would love to do a whole army with wintery hoods on

^Wow! So this mini will be available to order in December? Any guess on what size base that is too?

40mm, same as the Loonboss on Cave Squig.

^Ok thank you.

The details on this are awesome, the bell, tiny space marine, sigmarine too, little paint pots etc

When was the last time the black gobbo was even mentioned in anything?

seeing that tiny Sigmarine makes me wonder if we could get Epic scale AOS, I would actually play it in that scale.

Probably the Blood Bowl FW model that came out with Grombrindal? That was a few years ago

The Tech-priest White Dwarf model in 2020 where he's a Servitor.

I know I'm a bit late to the reveal party for this but I don't often follow AOS minis but I'm glad I caught this one. This is actually a really good sculpt in my opinion!

I only wish he was ogre sized so I could use him for other purposes. And while I was looking at that, a link for the new kruleboyz intrigued me and those look quite nice as well without the overly exaggerated features you find commonly on most orc type figs from GW (other than their LOTR line of course). They have just enough weirdness for me to differentiate their proportions from humans IMO.

Well that was fast:

I have never noticed the eavy metal team using nmm like they have on the wrapping ribbons. Have they done that before?

They've done it a few times. The new Sigvald model for AoS even got highlighted in the marketing as having that method used on the promotional model.

Well I put my name down for a FEC box. Maybe I can play SAGA with it.

How did you manage that? Somewhere doing an ‘express your interest?’

LGS need to submit orders by Monday evening if they want any limited stuff.

With any luck, some bits sites might be able to break up the new FEC box.

I'd like to get that Varghulf. Perhaps even the Gorewarden. They'd make interesting boss characters for Quest.

For those unaware, GW previews the next week’s PreOrders on Sunday. On Monday LGSes get the email for what they can order, and their order is due in on Tuesday afternoon. After they turn their order in they can not change it. GW’s PreOrders then go up on Saturday. And then I believe it’s the Monday after that the LGSes get an email telling them what their actual allocation they’re going to get is. It’s usually not as much as we asked for.

Price list is just out no change from CoS box

FEC army set is £120, €155
Grotmas Gitz £25, €32.50

Thanks Dave. Nice to see they didn't stick on an extra fiver just because.

Not great, not terrible.

Have the 4th edition starter box skaven vs stormcast leaks/rumors been discussed in this thread?

The whatnow?

OH! Yes I think there was mention that Skaven would be featured in the 4th ed starter box, but thats about the extent of what was said. Is there something more specific?

So Ushoran is set up in Ghyran. Nice. And Gristlegore are pacifist monks.

As a gristlegore player, them being pacifist monks is just odd.

Nothing particularly. I think it's more wishlistiing than anything confirmed. Although we have seen the digital version of Thunderstrike Liberators already.

Whitefang's been fairly on the nose about Skaven being the Big Bad of 4E.
