Right - Let's see... a head swap, a servo skull and a wine glass. Naturally I'll be needing at least 2. I like how the dress is so long it needs a cavalry base.

Where is cursed city?? aargh! I can't wait...I just...I can't...I just ....I just can't... ... I just...

Between Cursed City, Underworlds and AoS we're getting inundated with blood sucking undead it seems.

by the way, @jus - I believe the new vampy lady with the floofy collar is not from Cursed City. She's from the cursed city, but is not actually part of Cursed City.

Does that make sense?

If not, fear not, because it's bloody confusing and imho a bit of a nomenclature related cock-up by GW. Apparently the new vamp-faction-of-the-month is based in the cursed city of I-forget-its-name-stad, and as such lots of the fluff for them references them coming "from the cursed city". This is not, however, the same as saying "this model is for the Cursed City game that we will be releasing soon." I believe floofyneck there is actually a standalone Vampire Counts* unit for AoS, so you should at least be able to pick her up fairly easily, albeit at the cost of an arm, a leg and a kidney, knowing how GW do things.

*or whatever the heck theyre called nowadays. Sanguine Extracticators Copyrightabilicus or somesuch, most likely :roll:

I think Jus knows that (we know exactly which minis are in the Cursed City box now), he just really, really wants Cursed City.

And I don't blame him, it looks great. Glad classes and levels are in the game now, BSF was a bit too far in the direction of progression === loot.

That being said given the lore connection I bet we'll see quests for Cursed City using the other vampires, the same way we got BSF missions for the Master of Possession and Greater Possessed.

Classes! Levels! ACTUAL Progression!!??!!

This is too much. I can no longer control my blood lust. Surely preorder announcement this week or next.... or I fear I shall turn feral.
Heck the "how to paint Radukar the wolf" you tube video is already up on the warhammer channel. Someone had it queued up to play when the game SHOULD have been released. Which means we should it already... but we don't....yet..... Blooooooood. .........raaaaargh

Oh right, I've been meaning to ask. The right most vampire on Vampire Vogue magazine. The one with batty red hair, black armour and a shield. Is that a guy vampire or a girl vampire?

I can't tell.

....Bloooooooood......so thirsty...

The armour bits reminds me of Horizon: Zero Dawn for some reason.

They sort of teased the other releases too in the video but who knows when they're coming out.
I can sort of make out a painboy, a mounted (possibly chariot) unit with a heavy weapon(s), a mounted unit with a pistol, a lieutenant sort-of Ork, and a warboss.
