I like that, much more sleek. Interesting that there's been no skaven dump yet.

For Skaven there was this one but nothing else since:

Well that was off the back of the rulebook. I mean like these SCE "leak" shots that are conveniently appearing daily.

Unless someone is messing with the stormcast game - its in humble bundle right now so super cheap and it has an entire photo mode so you could go nuts making photos of models and then blurrying them



Also that axe earlier looks more like something the Ossiarchs would have.

First Skaven leak by the same person

Huh and as if by magic. So new rat ogor.

Excellent

So where does warpstone come from in AoS? Does it just coalesce from residual chaos energies? Is there some not-Morrslieb hurtling through the realms' skies, sprinkling rat coke along the way?

It seems as though it can manifest in any area with enough Chaos corruption, but despite all the lore I've read the only explicity mention of a source I've encountered has been the Skaven capital of Blight City which is supposedly built on a bedrock of Warpstone. Even if that was only partially true that is a *lot* of warpstone in the hands of those most skilled at its use.

New Rat Ogre is great but I am keen to see updated Gutter/Night runners.

Isn't it just the natural Realmstone of the various realms being corrupted by Chaos? So yes able to manifest anywhere and more so in areas of high Chaos infestation

I'd half expect those to come as warcry warband.

Hopefully the rumour list that had gutter runners go away was fake.

I thought I saw sprue pictures of the gatling cannon a week ago?

yeah someone assemble the part from the spreus

here the possible assembly

but anyway more leaks the Liberator Thunderstrike from Realm of Ruin design. It seem they going to refresh the first edition box with the Paladin, Liberator and Prosecutors then i guess layer it with new Ruination SE

Some rule infos from the person posting the potato leaks:

DELETE MELEE WEAPONS RANGE?
EVERYTHING USR!!!

That list was from the same person posting the potato leaks so likely to be true

both of these would be pretty significant. i like how 10th edition has used special rules, but i don't think it should go further than that (fantasy, for example). also the melee range would be pretty big because i think that's a pretty significant aspect of aos that sets it apart from 40k etc

AoS players in shambles.

everything USR means nothing in context of GW as it just means that previous rules that are similar get the same name while new rules are still on their own

no melee range any more would be big and basically changes how the game is played

It might just become a USR, simply being removed from the stat line.

Yeah, it could be something like - Reach: melee weapon with this USR has close combat range of 2'', or something similar.

Or they could finally stop being stupid and just say everyone in an engaged unit fights.

How can a mini 5 inches away fight in the same unit?

Works just fine in superior fantasy skirmish games like SAGA and Turnip.

Calling Turnip a good ruleset is just being disingenuous.

I don't play anymore, just paint.... but people arguing FOR range in melee seem to remove any abstraction from the game.

People don't have bases in real life, they only exist to stick a miniature to. In a wild melee between 10-20 man units, IMHO, there's no reason they couldn't all fight.

Unlike say, Rank and Flank where meatwalls just crash into each other. There, I can at least see the dudes in the back ranks not being able to reach. Although they could eventually wrap around.

AoS is inherently more skirmish-like so "reach" is kind of silly to me.

AoS 4E is setting the bases for pseudo rank and file, I'm calling it!

Dawnbringers 6. Abraxia:

I've always been a big STD fan. I hate it when they get cool new models, it's more gak for me to buy LOL

Better pictures:

The emphasis on 'small format' in the yapping says something else.
But they worked out that they can just write one version of the command group and put it in the base rules.

But expect sweeping changes and all the army books are going in the bin.
