Hey I know you are a huge fan of black templars. But have you ever done the emperor’s champion?! I would love to see you customize and paint that model for your army
Grey Knights for love of god, the range is 22 years old
I feel like I remember that update being in 2011-2012 not 2002. Though admittedly not great especially considering they really only need to update three kits to get the range up to date.
Grey knights need an update
Welcome to the pains of being Eldar
Current models are from 5th, 2011.
About as old a Space Wolves and Drukhari ranges.
Monkey paw curls : now all units are separate kits. Cost is multiplied by 2
The thing about that 4 months break, many armies are still stuck to the one index detachment, we need a second one for those cause its getting real boring to not have rules when many of our friends do
THIS!, as a votann player, being stuck with just oathband and out like 13 units is getting kind of boring, I love my space dwarves, I have 1 of everything and a couple duplicates to fill out my army, but I HAD to pick up a second army just so i could try something else.
So now I have orks, since their dex is out.
@@PaladinCaddy You'd almost think that was a feature rather than a bug. ;-)
We're less than a year into 10th edition. How much 40k are you playing to be bored already?
Ehh... Custodes player here I'd rather go back to the index single codex.. We basically got 3 additional useless detachments and a nerfed index one. Hope you don't get the same 😂
And many many codeces lmao
"I play Black Templar... And Orks, and Tyranid, and I'm getting into Death Guard, and I would like to start a Sisters of Battle army, and I have a bunch of Grey Knights. Its a problem."
Jay, what about the metal boys? No necrons anymore? 😲😜
Forgot his GSC too haha!
And Drukhari 😂
They could have just sent an email ffs
Heres a video idea for Monday or just whenever. You have an Ogre army yes? I think that’d be a fun painting challenge!
Reports of 40k-related events, products and personalities are everywhere. Like football supporters, 40k fans seem to have an insatiable desire for more news, chat and retail opportunities related to their enthusiasm. They're standing in a monsoon screaming: "I FEEL SO DRY!" while the rest of us are getting soaked.
I think the issue is they want to know when their army is coming so they can plan accordingly
40k fans are so spoiled.
If you play Space Marines, sure. No other army in 40k gets even a tenth of the attention those things get, and if you don't play Space Marines you can go years without getting anything or have to wait over a year to get an actually playable army because of how long it takes for all the codexes to come out.
The problem is that all the news is bad news, every new release is at best mediocre, but it’s always accompanied by something that makes it bad, we get lazily designed blood angels, which on their own are just mediocre, but when they’re released at the same time as absolutely stunning AOS models we’re left wondering why they didn’t put the same effort into the 40K models
And there is an unfortunately vocal minority in this community that is very toxic whenever they are cranky about anything. Primaris? The end of the world is upon us. Femstodes? Apocalyptic meltdown. No 40k for a while? How dare GW.
I just realized. The new combat patrol for Astra Militarum will be Krieg
Ill buy 5 of those, poor wallet
not sure about that, dark angel didn't get any new unit in the new combat patrol.
@@Grassouillelafripouille They said that new kreig units are coming in the presentation so it would make sense that it would be the combat patrol.
@@Leviathan9173 It will most likely be a full battleforce like the Kroot box, but they could extend it to the Combat Patrol. I'm hoping we get DK Marshal, Command Squad, Deathriders, and Earthshaker, but who knows if heavy weapons or grenadiers will come back with them!
@@Leviathan9173 maybe they will be but what I mean is that most new combat patrol didn't include new units that came out with the codexes and so don't count too heavily on it. the only combat patrol with new units are blood angel, space marines and tyranids (Obviously space marines and tyranids doesn't really count as they are from leviathan). They might not be in the combat patrol but they will definitely make a box set with the codex
"One of the head options looks like Cher" This is the cutting edge commentary I've come to expect from EoB.
Given the pace of releases from Nottingham's finest purveyor of plastic crack I'm surprised it's taken them this long to take a break. I recall when GW would release maybe 2 or 3 armies a year and call it a day? That makes me ancient now, I think. Anyway, if it means a better product at the end of it then I'm more than happy for GW to slow the pace of releases until 2025. The real fear here is the scale of the price increase they'll levee to make up for it next year! 🙄
Even 3rd party sellers etc are ludicrously expensive now. Gods knows what insane hike GW will inflict on its customer base (yet again). I don't know how they justify it or indeed keep getting away with it. It's simple maths-700 page book (say on prehistory/dinosaurs in my case) or ONE 2.5 inch plastic soldier either for around £20. Bonkers. I genuinely have no idea how GW didn't go under during Covid. Better companies, alas, did.
Yap yap yap@@davidstone-haigh4880
@@davidstone-haigh4880GW made record profits during Covid, which makes complete sense.
A ton of people stuck inside with nothing to do. Might as well start painting miniatures.
@@davidstone-haigh48803d printers are cheaper than ever and recaster didnt increase their cost
This is what I'm hopeful for. I'm okay with them slowing releases if it means a better 40k a bit later.
2/3rds through the year, reveal a roadmap to say "yeah, there's nothing else." What a weird announcement!
and I feel like they spent a good amount of time/energy going over "what we've done so far this year" like dude we were there
@@peteblaxmith and it shouldnt be applauded when the results are this poor.
Given the breakneck pace of releases in 2024 it shouldn't be a surprise.
@@---we1ok and who determined that release schedule? GW really ran that hard to find out they have nothing left now?
They should’ve just taken it slower and actually put work into the releases. I’d rather the custodes codex be just coming out now, but have it actually be good and have the new shield captain look cool instead of like a square, and have blood angels come out in December, but have the Sanguinary guard not be shiny jump intercessors
just FYI: chaos dwarf holds are marked on the new AoS4 maps
also for guy on birb you just have to go to the Orruks ;)
The road maps are arranged like that and things are clipped out because it's clearly setup as a two-page spread format. I'll bet each one will show up in white dwarf soon.
The blood bowl team has hobgoblins not goblins thats why they look a little different.
We’ve been telling them to get their act together with product availability. Perhaps this move is related to that.
I would have hoped that if this was the case, they would have said so as a way to promote that positive. I watched the stream and they did not mention it.
Ergo, I assume the stock issues will remain.
not to be a pessimist but I can't help it when it comes to GW. I'm still very confident that the best 3 christmas boxes will sell out within an hour for the Xth year in a row.
Lest we forget.
Original 10th edition roadmap clearly had Deathwatch codex and then slowly squatted 🤬
You upset you got a codex? Plus dearhwatch are just "every space marine chapter" why not put them into "the book that represents all humans"
@@games-wz7szhow would you like it if Blood Angels we’re squatted, or Dark Angels, or Space Wolves, or Black Templars since after all they’re just space marines right? How bout Sisters of Battle or Imperial Guard since they’re all humans right? How bout Eldar? Craft World and Dark Eldar are the same right? What about Genestealer Cults surely they should be under Tyranids right? Speaking of Squats, how bout Leagues of Vothan? They should be under “humans” faction right?
@@cpt.s.seiden you are being obtuse.
1. Deathwatch is EVERY space marine faction
2. The same way I would feel IF they squatted death watch (which they didn't, squatting means 0 rules and no playing. You literally got a codex)
3. The point of the agents book is to be the stop gap for that fact that imperium is the biggest faction with so much bloat but also not every group represented. This allows them to add agents to deathwatch and also remove a codex. So the number of factions stays the same.
4. You know how and why each of those is different. Don't insult my intelligence by acting like that's an argument. I won't insult your intelligence by explaining why in kind.
@@games-wz7szyou’re the one being obtuse. Literally insulting the guy by claiming that.
Grey Knights have the smaller range than Deathwatch. They’re still kicking.
@@games-wz7szI understand where you're coming from. However, while other space marine chapters are getting multiple thematic detachments, us Deathwatch players got one detachment in an army that isn't ours and likely won't be competitively viable. Not to mention the fact that Deathwatch lost all but four units to legends.
The road maps imho were little more than recap “vision boards” with no real information and lots of vague statements. We know from the GW production scheme that they already have in hand everything coming out next year. They could have shown some artwork at the very least or just well.. something rather than what they did.
They spent so much time covering what they’ve already done, which is something all of the players already know they didn’t even really focus on next year, which was really disappointing.
10:45 You could make some servitors to use as tokens to mark sticky objectives, or maybe units that are performing actions. I love making little custom tokens and things to remind me of game effects. A token for your Oath target is a must have imo.
9:43 they're called Tassets.
lol I said the same thing
Plot twist? More Blood Angels still coming?!? “I ain’t hear no bell”
I badly want you to be right, but at this point I have no hope
They’ll come out with a new Dante who is just an assault intercessor with an upgrade sprue
Well they have all the new skaven and stormcast coming between now and christmas, the new MESBG edition, Killteam and other smaller bits so I'm not surprised things are slower for 40k
The 30k roadmap was really bad, the community has been asking for less tanks and more plastic infantry (we are still missing 3/6 of the troop choices in plastic), and yet GW just keeps making tanks. Plus they've got Legions Imperialis with 30k, so does that mean the "release every month" is going to be split between both systems? It's particularly bad compared to the previous roadmap we had last year, which had enough vagueness to keep people guessing whilst showing lots of things to come.
If GW are planning to take a break for a few months, these roadmaps should have been there to reassure people that big things are coming later and give people things to look forward to.
All this lack of info will do is make people look into 3d printing rather than waiting for any news on things their army actually needs. And yeah we will get Heresy thursdays again but it will be half Imperialis I think.
Nah it’s more Imperial Fist characters
tank heavy lists are popular with casuals, which is also why I'm sick of playing the game in general, I've kind of just quiet quit my play group instead of telling them, "No, I don't want to play against an all tanks and dreads 1k list"
@@JanitorScruffy I quit waiting on GW a long time ago for infantry options and started just printing them. It's just too easy not too.
I am fine with no new releases. Time to go into my pile of shame and work on my backlog. I need to be ready for the new aspect warriors so I can paint them without feeling the hateful stares of my unpainted minis.
That's what I've done, I've decided to not buy anything new until all.mine are painted and based.
Maybe they’ll use this break to actually come up with good designs for the Guard release instead of butchering yet another faction’s characters
@@-TheMachineGod- designs are prepared years earlier before release. Even starting the production line and organizing all sales, marketing and distribution takes months of work. That said I would not be so pessimistic. They flopped blood angels and Coteaz but every other release has been great so far. I’m sorry for those collect and play these factions but it happens. It should not, but is statistically impossibile that every new single release will hit the mark. No one complained about the designs in the Leviathan box, Kroots, Dark Angels and such. Right now the number of new failed design in the 40k range is only a small percentage.
@@-TheMachineGod-literally everything other than coteaz and BA has been great, and some of the BA characters are awesome even. Chill out, bro.
I mean i guess the issue and advantage of Space Marine in a fantasy setting is that converting to Grimdark is easy but fantasy looses it uniqueness. Add a power plant, change the glowing to the blade and you have a space marine.
Speaking personally as an Eldar, imperial knights player who is currently building a solar auxilia army with plans to proxy them as imperial guard: I am so happy that all my beautiful boys are getting codexes! They gave a little thing about swooping hawks which is nice, and I remember them saying that every codex would come with at least 1 thing, so I’m curious what the imperial knight one will be - maybe the Atrapos, maybe the Armiger Moirax, but if it’s something new that would be really exciting.
Also, I’m looking forward to having rules for my Harlequins again. I started building them mid 9th Ed, but have never actually gotten to play a game with them because of how slowly I paint.
Your reaction to the less than ideal 30k roadmap is pretty wholesome, pretty cool so see someone so enthusiastic about new release
It's Hobgoblins with Chaos Dwarf the're allways taller than regular goblins if I remember.
Depending upon how old your models are.
Has GW ever invested in a plastic school ruler, or is their scale issues related to Britain going metric back in the 1960s?
Were the road maps bad? Yeah, am I bothered that GW's taking a break from 40k for the rest of the year to complete AoS releases and other stuff? Not yet. As long as this "break" doesn't then mean that like at the end of 9th edition the last few codexes get screwed over again and have only like 3-6 months to USE their codex before a new versions release cycle starts again. Then it would be just so annoying.
It's also giving my wallet a break so that's good too :P
2:24 it’s because they’re not goblins…. Hobgoblins.
Whoa what a difference
It's like the Elephants from LOTR
Ya yo
Ya the priest guy is joining the Raven Guard or he is going to imperial agents to become boss hog inquisitor 😅
Judisar or whatever is a good idea
I love servitors and the new HH machanium drones would work
"The 30k Roadmap is great"
Am I being punked?
Actually that's how I felt when I saw that roadmap, which, for a map, seemed to lack any actual destinations, just "Hey we have some more releases for a different game so this roadmap doesn't look even more incomplete!" and "TANKS!" which actually felt like a joke considering that's most of what they have given us.
you're going to take your graphic of tanks that have already come out and you're going to LIKE IT
@@PaladinCaddy Specifically, you are going to say 'tanks' for your tanks.
It was literally the worst. And enjoy Legoins Imperialis now being a part of it so that the new releases every month aren't even the 28mm Horus Heresy game.
Lord Terminos seems like it would make for a pretty spot on Coteaz conversion
Yeah the diagram is really wierd
I like the 4 months break cause i get to catch up on my armies as well and buy the old spearhead boxes before the new ones come out
Also krieg really deserve to get the rest of their range
Happy for my friend who plays them
Might get some for my cult if gw reverses the stupid decision to restrict brood brothers to one detachment
04:22 Mantic have Dwarfs riding ravens and they _are_ cool. The Northern Alliance Frostclaw Riders might be worth checking out for their kitbash potential alone @EonsOfBattle
I’m not an AOS fan but these new storm cast models are an absolute 10/10 and I have no idea what the hell jay is talking about with the nitpicks. Lol
You’re missing out. AoS makes 40k look like a clown show.
Hey Jay we have a Bloodbowl group in central WI. Happy to meet up and give a demo.
Also, there's only what, 15 weekends left of the year?
The list of products we know are coming fills out a lot of that.
Blood Angels have happened, but they'll probably get a second run when they release the FOMO box model independently.
AOS has at least 3 weeks for the Skaven, SCE and STD releases - but could be 5 or 6 weeks.
TOW has Warriors of Chaos for probably 2 weekends if previous armies are to be used as the archetype.
HH needs a week where they release all the Mechanicum models independently.
Blood Bowl for the Chaos Dwarfs.
So that's 8-11 remaining weeks accounted for.
There'll be a week for the Christmas battle boxes - maybe 2 or 3 if they split the releases per game.
A new LOTR release is maybe due - but probably the weekend after Christmas.
And Christmas shutdown.
But this is another 3-5 weeks - meaning 11-16 weeks are accounted for.
A good chunk of the year remaining has releases planned - it'll fly by.
Guessing you're not all that into Horus Heresy? That "roadmap" isn't great, it's hardly a roadmap xD
"We're making stuff, but 4x slower than last year. And also, the only thing we can be bothered with letting you, our loyal fanbase, know about, is the one thing you've been saying you do not want more of before we flesh out infantry and their weapon options."
A kick in the nuts is what that "roadmap" is. Another year of only tanks is what we can expect apparently.
I want a Fellblade and the Solar Super heavies, don't get me wrong but I would trade several tank kits for Charonite Ogryns and freaking breachers or apothecaries.
I actually like knowing nothing is coming for a while. I can plan ahead. It’s easy to set money aside and say “here’s my fund for the 40K stuff I want” when I don’t have something coming imminently.
The only thing I am salty on is how GW decided to basically give the whole imperium a codex before they gave any of chaos one (aside from the lone book for vanilla CSM)
I am so impressed that your “How?” Is different every single time.
12:52 Jay I don’t know what outhouses you’ve been crapping in that look like our space portal but you got a hook a brother up
That symbol on top looks suspiciously familiar to me.....wasn't there a TV show about people jumping through a portal to others worlds?
I know the picture for Guard is a Krieger, but I really hope that the Catachans get some love. Their current units have that old, nostalgic charm but damn I'd love to see them modernized.
I would actually consider getting into guard if they came out with Valhallans, and also made it viable to make a list with only one regiment instead of needing cadians, kriegers, and catachans all in the same list to stand a chance
Yeah, i think these roadmaps were made for internal comms maybe 2 months ago, as so many of the "still to come" stuff is already out.
FYI the word TANKS usually refers to armored vehicles for fighting in wars etc.
Now you know what it means :D
As a stormcast players first, (Sylvaneth second)I absolutely loved this !
It's the perfect time to get new models and our battletome, since the Skaventide models have no synergy with the rest of the army at all. I also would love to have giant predatory birds. I'm a little disappointed that we left the dragons behind for now, since they are gorgeous models.
You get the abysmal IA code and you will LIKE IT!
I'm still working through my stormcast half. I would love a paint video of them. The models are so sick and look way better in person
1) for Blood Bowl try: "The Miniature hobbyists", 2) give the horse guys cowboy hats to make a new faction,
3) if you have FOWW NukaWorld Factions, have you seen a hand to hold the flamer weapon by the front dot or a top handle?
Go Blood Bowl. I recently purchased the Drakfang Thirsters. Now I just need to build and paint them.
The reveal show was so depressing 😢
I was in the room and walked out lol
"Look, we're a miniature wargame company and we'll make some miniatures in the future!"
why would they announce value added bundles, but not tell people what is in them, thus incentivizing gitz and orruk players to straight up buy nothing until they end of the year, lest they double up on a unit that they will get for "free" in the spearhead box?
At least some people will have a chance to shrink their piles of shame this year.
The armor on the wings of the gryphon mounts is so that theoretically they can do wing strikes. Big birds, like geese & swans, can break a person's leg with their wings.
it also helps prevent crippling via arrows or spears, if something gets into that joint the wing is absolutely useless.
@@PaladinCaddy Don't want to take an arrow to the knee. I mean elbow.
damn those griffins are cool! I can see some awesome custom builds with those being made.
Also, I hope next year we get more night haunts maybe a rebuild of the hexwraiths.
Is Sean dome painting the Baneblade yet?
Considering the new stormcast and skaven models and the upcoming christmesboxes: Thank god, nothing tempting until next year!!!
Hey my uncles one foot of wing armor saved his life buddy!!!! Thanks gents!! Fantastic as always!!!
Cause it's killteam time. Not enough staff
The road map is weird because they had to fluff it up since there was very little true road map info to put on them.
Those are HOBGOBLINS, chaos dwarves got their own kind of greenskin
So the U-shaped road maps... Are you supposed to right side of the U top to bottom or bottom to top. And how do you fold them to put them back in the glove compartment?
I wonder if that portal terrain piece could be make to look Chaotic
I really hope if we get guard regiments back we get new steel legion too
Yeah 40k roadmap was a shocker! Funnily enough I already was aware what had been released this year, was no need to give me the recap 😂
This nova video was Clearwater recorded like 2 months ago
The hippogryph-lion thing xD You mean a gryphon?
I was thinking, that's not a hippogriff! It has no horse hooves.
my guess is all the 40k production steam is being pushed into the FOMO Holiday boxes that are right around the corner.
Looks like the guys who wanted to make the new DarkAngels were tasked to do Age of Sigmar... the range feels kinda Dark Angelic
My copium is the timing of releases is based on financial year, which starts in October. It would be pretty shocking if gw didn’t release anything new in the fall. Plus last year in the fall was when leviathan came out and I think the smaller kits for starters were around octoberish, making it 2024 financial year
I just wanna see Jay paint a Bloodbowl team.
the portal looks like a gazebo made from stone
When you said one of the head options kinda looks like Cher I lost it 😂
I think you should do a video on turning primaris marines into minotaurs sucsessor chapter of unknown, they are so COOL!!!!!!!
What confuses me most about this reveal show is not only how little 40K they actually had to show off, but there must have been some decision when planning this where they said...
"So we have no new 40K for the rest of the year so what shall we announce?"
"Well we could announce the new MESBG stuff."
"What no, we need to announce 40K, why would we announce MESBG?"
"Because we have a new edition coming soon, plus a load of new models based on the War of the Rohirim film."
"Fine, we will announce 1 model of MESBG, but not on the reveal, we'll reveal it at the same time, but seperate."
"But what about the new edition?"
"We'll announce that like a week before, but not give off too much information."
"So what will we reveal for 40k that is better than an entire new edition of one of our still largely popular games."
"Lets just release a road map with the vaguest of reveals for 2025 releases."
"OK... but we have some cool Horus Heresy reveals too right?"
"Yes. The vaguest of the vague new factions and TANKS! reveals"
"And that's also more important than a new edition of MESBG?"
"Yes. For god sake, you're obsessed with MESBG. We just released like 5 new models after 2.5 years of absolutely nothing. You'd think you'd be a bit more grateful. Jesus."
I felt the same, like they are sitting there saying yo this is what we done and then here like wtf. I enjoy your videos !!
We waited 30yrs for new Squats and back to the waiting, still no 10th codex or wave 2 announced is sadness.
I'm wondering if the combat patrol magazine subscription has pushed their overtaxed production lines and existing stock to the brink. Maybe they can't commit to producing new models because they've already signed on to producing these old combat models... which could mean things will get worse when subscriptions open worldwide.
My happiness is immeasurable. My beloved shovel men are getting their much needed range update
In the reveal stream they revealed that they will be revealing some stuff eventually
Not surprising that the full blood angels release will be the last, they still have to release some of the boxset characters from some of the pre order boxes, so i guess they will be sprinkled in with other game releases or have there "own dedicated week" once we get to december where things slow down
Hey, catachans are astra millitarum too
quick question about the terrain credits, is it one credit for one pack or is it multiple credits for a pack?
The “I could have done better in tinker cad” line made me laugh so hard I woke up my roomates
Yeah there is "nothing new" until next year but like.. there is lots of 40k releases still coming. Chaos Lords don't have their own release yet, kill teams, KT3.0 is coming out, the 2nd half of the BA releases won't go up until like October or something, then Christmas boxes still. Really not worried, personally.
I love and prefer 30k to 40k but that's cause its 7th edition rules which are just objectively better also getting to put 100s of space marines dreadnoughts tanks and your primarch on the board is just so good I especially love full squads of dreadnoughts
The “how” today was spicy 😂 keep it up boys
GW putting all their best sculptors on the AoS is obvious.
BA and Coteaz flopped, we get it. What else you got, huh? Literally every other 40k release has been great, even if the ShieldCap was divisive at first (the model is actually super dope). DA refresh was mint af, and the characters for the other factions have been sick.
@captaincorundum9788 bro the last good Space Marine release was the Black Templars...
still to come! lunch! followed by dinner or second lunch?
"I don't understand " sums up the NOVA road maps
Jay, for the love of god, please get into Horus Heresy. You're a big time Space Marine boy. That's all the game is. Plus tanks.
I'm about to start painting my jump pack intercessors and t'au empire krootox rampagers.that a friend got me for Christmas. What is the best starter set for me to get so I know how to play the game.
Im happy knights is coming soon. Im fucking praying that the cerestus isn't gonna get cut
"Games Workshop is Done with 40k For The Year"
And so am I.
Games Workshop made me Nostalgic towards old editions and made me go to Ebay to buy old models, lol
As a gnome coach I can confirm the trees are in fact very friendly. They just want hugs why don't you send your guys into them?
Best How Ever!!!
Laughing in Warcry.
Those Blood Bowl "goblins" aren't goblins, btw. They're Hobgoblins, which have a slight design difference.
That Nova stream? It was terrible. They didn't even say which Factions in AoS were getting tackled next, not really, just the Grand Alliances.... which don't narrow it down at all, really. The "roadmap" indicates that Ironjawz/Orruk Warclans and Gloomspite Gitz are up next year, but it may be an army box or a spearhead on either. So.. eh?
As for the model reveals, I'm seriously bothered by the Lord-Terminos already having a new kit when he was in Skaventide. Granted, it was a shared sprue, but that didn't stop them for Kruleboyz or Yndrasta, selling those only in a full box with other stuff (the mounted Kruleboyz hero shares his sprue with Boltboyz, for instance), and they're only soon(tm) releasing the Lord-Imperatant and Knight-Arcanum individually, they've been locked to starter boxes for 3rd for the past three years, despite being on individual sprues (and featured in Stormbringer).
Not getting a full multi-part kit for Liberators, with banner and more choices than shield/hammer and head/helmet is a big bummer, too. 3rd edition's basic troop unit (Vindictors) had a choice in male/female Prime, at least, and a banner. With Liberators, you don't even get an alternate 2h-hammer wielder. The duplicates in Skaventide are already obvious with its two included squads.
The Lord-Celestant was very necessary, but I really dislike the way they added a lion pelt onto the new (female!) model, covering up the pauldrons... and also adding a lion head on top of the lion chest piece. That model screams "Astral Templars!" to me, not generic Lord-Celestant.
The Lord-Relictor is long overdue and fully excellent. Won't need to build my own now, hurray.
The Palladors confuse me, because we already have Vanguard Palladors, which didn't get squatted. Will they get squatted next, then, or remain? Would've prefered if they'd just kept the Dracolines from Sacrosanct around...
Also lol @ the multi-part Reclusians having the maces from the squatted Paladin kit (which had three options, ffs).
How about finish the skaven the range like clan pestilence. Also I want an iron jawz spearhead, cause I hate the hill Billy hob goblins, I refuse to call them Orks.
Wow that intro seemed fast forward
I'm guessing that they will still have Christmas boxes.
still no drukhari news 🙂
Drukhari are fine where they're at. Long live the Craftworlds! ; )
But for realsies, I love that they got a second detachment.
maybe there are more blood angels that we don't know about?
Fyreslayers have 10-13 units
Ironjawz have 9-12 units
Behemoth have 7-9 units
Stormcast Eternals has 30+ units
GW’s solution: More Stormcast models. They’re literally just a dementia version of Spacemarines.
