As for that mystery spot...

Crosses fingers. "Please be another HH starter box. Please be another HH starter box. Please be another HH starter box."

And now I'm prepared to be disappointed once again. :D

I'm very much going to stay up to watch the livestream to see dat titan. It'll be vampires and lumineth for AoS I suppose, probably Drukhari for 40K? And/or the new crusade pack. Kill team should be the Indomitus models support, Underworlds will be the whole vampire warband. My bet for mystery #6 is Old World.

I’ll admit, I’m keeping half an eye on developments here. Particularly underworlds, but other stuff, too...
current (2019) hobby interests
eh, y'know. Stuff, and things

Wow. And then Corona happened. Just....crickets, all the way through to 2023...

I'm bored so I'll update live while the GW dudes are chatting.

First up is the Sisters "Paragon Warsuit"

Completely ridiculous (the presenters actually used the word "ludicrous) and utterly 40K. :lol: (There's weapon options for the shoulder mounts, and the multimelta has heavy bolter and heavy flamer options.) I dig it!

Then a new Kill Team box set with Marines vs Necrons - the heavy intercessors, flayed ones and such we saw last year, with a gravis captain and chronomancer as leaders. Set inside a tomb complex. (But 5 heavy intercessors versus 5 flayed ones doesn't strike me as particularly balanced...)

And the titan's a Warmaster, looking bigger than a Warlord.

Lurve.

Scale 12 maybe?

The Warmaster looks ugly yet fun, I'm getting one for sure until they release the alternate weapon kit eventually down the road. It looks slow as hell though which is a shame with all that plasma.

Yeah, I can't imagine it'll be any faster than the Warlord. :lol: Love the callback to the old Jes Goodwin sketch though. Classic ugly Imperial design, I love it.

Next is a very teasery Lumineth teaser, including a fox spirit thing.

The whole vampire warband for Underworlds:

"The Crimson Court" is an extremely chiche'd name, but eh. Very cool, and it's hard to tell from this picture but they're very big. Looks like head and shoulders above the elves. A quick glimpse of the cards suggests they're (unsurprisingly) going to lean into the new hunger mechanic.

Huh, so it is. I was only looking at the bovine mask. :) There's also a Broken Realms: Teclis book, and a new Battletome and Endless Spells for Daughters of Khaine.

I've never wanted an undead army since the early 90s and the days of the original Nagash, but these new vampires are tempting me ...

New Warhammer Quest game, set in AoS this time - maybe they're alternating between AoS and 40K for WHQ now that Blackstone's done?

Very cool witch hunter-ish dude for it though.
