OLD WORLD RUMORS

BREAKING!
We will see a preview for Warhammer The Old World at the beginningw of next Year, this one will be bigger than those we saw in the past and since the Game was the first Time announced in November 2019.

This preview will be a bit more precise about the Game.

The Ruleset for Warhammer the Old World will be 7th Edition to the core, 
but with smaller influences from the 5th, 6th and 8th Editions. They 
understood that the 8th was too big in the sense of Army building, even for 
GW Games.

The Core Rules are more or teaser completed and work on the Starter Sets 
written content and early expansions will soon starting but Miniatures are 
still in Work

There will be a new concept of Expansions Books and three Compendium-like 
Tomes for 8th Edition Armies before The End Times in a format like Ravening 
Hordes from the early 6th Edition.

It looks like that the concept of Armybooks will stay and continue and The 
Old World becomes something like the 9th Edition WHFB.

Those Kislev and Cathay previews are misinterpreted by some people. They do 
serve more like an advice for Total War and should show how both Games 
are "interlocked" based on the same Artworks and as part of World Building 
for the TT Game. Also they will show that the new WHFB Game will be not 
focused on the territories of the Empire as in the past. Those faction will 
come for The Old World but not from the very beginning.

The Old World
I have some (not so positive" Rumors) about Warhammer - The Old War...

As said in an earlier mail, there will be no miniature previews before mid 
2022.

Model Ranges are already in the Work, but the most progressing Part of the 
Reboot is the Backstory and the Freerooms they have because the different 
timeline.

Early Factions for the Game will be no brainers and all time community favs 
like the Empire, Orcs and Goblins, Dwarfs and Chaos. Those factions are  
focused the most but others are in the work, but do not expect Cathay or 
other niche factions too early, those will need years after the reboot to 
come to light.

Release could be Summer 2023, but that Date isn't finally set. Covid 
brought more trouble for GW than everyone believes...



New Edition Timelines
They're also internal changes for Warhammer the Old World. The main Studio 
is more involved in this project, which was the idea of the oldest Studio 
Members.

Also the established release shedule for GW in the last years is mostly 
obsolete thanks to Covid: They can't no longer bring new Editions every 
three years.

via  a solid source on Faeit 212 Parts 1 and 2
I got informations about those "Compendium" Books for Warhammer The Old 
Word.

As earlier said, it will be three Books.

"Good Factions Book"
- Empire
- Bretonnia
- Dwarfs
- High Elves

"Bad Factions Book"
-Warriors of Chaos
- Beasts of Chaos
- Dark Elves
- Skaven
- Orcs and Goblins
- Vampire Counts

"Neutral Factions Book"
- Wood Elves
- Khemri
- Ogre KIngdoms
- Lizardmen


Those Compendiums will timeline-wise set in the old WHFB Timeline include Rules for all Units from 8th Edition Army Books before the End Times was released. Characters inclusive but no Nagash or Glottkin etcetera.

New Rulebook, Army Books and Expansions will then set in the new Timeline of Warhammer The Old World.


-this was our source in the comment sections from Part 1! So always a good place to look and join in on the conversations.
  • The Books will also include rules for all Characters and Units before The End Times was released and set in the old Timeline of WHFB.

a short-term breaking news!
Rouge Trader reboot in the work




AGE OF SIGMAR RELEASE LEAK



ELDAR LEAKS
A questionable leak that was removed 12/01/2021
There are new Guardian models, running with elongated back antennas and flowing clothes. Plethora of options: different sleeker rifles, dual pistols in the same style, chainswords. Leader has coat.
 
New Rangers: harlequinesque hoods, close combat weapons in addition to rifles, elongated antennas
 
New Striking Scorpions: similar to old models, but greater variance of poses, Exarch’s chainsword is inbuilt in his gauntlet. Leader model has chainsword klaive
 
Karandras: Slightly crouching on top of ruins. The claw is even smaller than the old version, but the chainsword is massive. The segmentation of the scorpion helm is similar to the drukhari armour style, but the rest is craftworld style with these yellow scorpion bars, except that karandras is in a very dark green and the bars are bone colored. There is a pictures of this miniature and Drazhar next to each other and the arc on the base is a continuation of on of Drazhar’s stone arcs
 
Asurmen:
Similar to the old model, but helmet is more layered-samurai-like and he stands on a huge column with a relief of battling eldar
 
Dire Avengers leader: one to one 2nd edition cover rendition
 
Howling banshee: jumping in mid air, cloaked with flowing strips not unlike spectres but horizontally, glaive
 
New Warp spiders: high heads with multiple eyes. Smaller backpack with web effect. Smaller sleeker weapon, held by two additional mechanical arms. Phoenix Lord has four additional mechanical arms and is held by two of them on a web of wraithbone in a monklike pose
 
New Vypers: larger jetbike canopy with standard jetbike middle section and rider. rear is split. each side with intake, jet and large wing. In the middle is a ‘gyroscopic harness’ of three halfcircles and a shooter/heavy weapon. There is a variant with wraithbonetendrils held by lightning between the sides instead of the weapon, rider has hammer and blindfold
 
New Shining Spears: standard jetbikes with underslung smaller canopy that bends on one side upwards to shield the rider, very short wings, but huge hair tail from rear, rider has multilayered plates like water ripples, knightly helmet with huge antlers, laserlances. There is a variant without the additional, upside-down canopy with Guardian helmets, axes, larger wings in the form of the Avatar helmet
 
Diorama: vyper and two jetbikes with axes in V formation balances on tree stump, falling leaves with turbulences from the jetbikes makes this very dynamic. The trio is connected with cables and they pull a mini webway portal.
 
Warlocks, Dire Avengers, Falcons, Wraithguards, Fire Dragons, Swooping Hawks are the same. The latter has a new leader (Hierarch) with a pet bird, though.
 
There are two Avatar pictures, probably Forgeworld conversions, one with an axe and a blood weeping Horus mask. The other with female chest, burning veil and glaive and stump for the other hand.
 
Ulthwe, Alaitoc (additional meditations and can make two terrain features dense), Saim Hann, Iyanden and Yme-Loc! (get exclusively the Expert Crafters trait and -1 dmg for non-aircraft vehicles) get half a page each. 2 pages for built-a-craftworld, Biel Tan has a whole page with a custom Court of The Young King hero hammer HQ-only detachment. Ynnari get almost two pages with their trait (bonus CP for every destroyed unit, capped at three, that can be spent on Command Reroll, Insane Bravery or Counteroffensive in the same round with an addendum when not battleforged that I skipped), a couple of relics, but only a single stratagem (resurrection for 2CP) and a list of drukhari/harlequin models that can be included as mercenaries.
 
Crusade: all there, but haven’t spent time on it. The same for relics, but vehicle upgrades are now relics for vehicles.
 
Stratagems: celestial shield and seer council, forwarned are gone, Fire and Fade is still 1CP. There is a new 3CP one that lets all aspect units that have another one in 6” reroll wounds.
 
4 psychic tables:
  • runes of destruction (doom, jinx, eldritch storm, drain, mind war, executioner)
  • runes of war (destructor, flail, protect, horrify, enhance, quicken)
  • runes of fate (guide, fortune, conceal, forwarning, and two more)
  • runes of the revenant. (ghostwalk, storm of whispers, shield of ynnead, enliven, word of the phoenix, unbind souls)
 
No time to read the specific power.
 
3 tables of warlord traits: aspect, ynnari and generic.
 
Farseer can be upgraded to high farseer, knows/casts/denies additional power. Autarch upgrade gives them a shrine creed and +2 attacks if enough models in 2”. Hierarchs can become Disciples of Asurmen, giving them a 4++
 
Objectives are: enemy unit destroyed by attacks of two/three or more friendly units in a turn, enemy characters/monsters killed by own aspect characters and one that gives you VP if the enemy holds one designated objective
 
Army wide rules
 
some deployment rules that I skipped sadly
 
Battle Focus: ignores the first negative shooting modifier and resolves the rest normally
 
Path of Asuryan: this one is long, complicated and it would be a miracle if I got everything correct or complete. The rules text alone consists of some dense paragraphs and the list of traits is four pages long with a couple of categories. Units can choose traits from a certain category and no trait can be picked twice. But there are lots of exceptions, though. It seems that wraith units put the rule on its head and all units must choose the same trait. When a phoenix lord is part of the detachment, aspect units can take the same trait. Aspects units without an exarch are also exempt. There is a rules text for ynnari, but I can't remember what it was.
 
There are Lamentations, meditations, shrine creeds and exarch powers.
 
There is a lamentation that gives a unit deep strike, but there are not that many traits. Meditations are more plentiful. The path of the acrobat gives advance bonus, path of the arbiter, MW on dice roll when wound is mitigated after taking saves, path of the warlock: can take powers from the runes of war. an ynnari only one makes an autarch a level 1 psyker. Path of the Black Guard is Ulthwe only, gives 6” more range. There are many more. this is speculation: I think they represent former path experiences, since some model have rules like: Path of Farseer/Command etc: yaddayadda, in addition, can take up to one meditation. Speaking of which: Path of command is unchanged, but not an army wide rule, but only for the autarch with wings. The autarch on jetbike doesn’t have this and Yriel has Path of the Outcast (deploy after both armies are deployed). But I should stop here. I will describe what I could remember about the datasheets later.
 
All aspects have three bespoke shrine creeds that are all very powerful and a couple of unaligned ones. Then there are a dozen Exarch powers that are all unaligned, with only one locked for biel tan armies. Scorpions have one creed that lets them advance and charge if movement starts in terrain. Dark reaper shrine creeds: indirect fire with single shot, additional shot within 18", krak shot available and reroll hits on 1. There is one generic that allows to reroll charges. Some exarch powers are simple stat modifiers.
 
Unit entries:
entries for the Ynnari triumvirate
 
Farseer: still 2 powers. Witchblade is S+2 AP-2 D2 now. Path of the Farseer: +2 to all psychic tests, two meditations
 
Solo warlocks and spirit seers can also cast 2 powers, but only deny one. spirit seers draw from revenant runes discipline
 
Avatar: 14 wounds, different equipment options
 
Damanhalla: warp spider phoenix lord. all phoenix lords present, all I have seen in detail have 4++, have missed the Karandras profile unfortunately
 
Hierarchs: 4 separate HQ entries for Striking Scorpions, Swooping Hawks, Howling Banshees and Dire Avengers. Female models except the scorpion. Haven’t found their fluff, so don’t know what exactly they are. But they get three exarch powers and have one attack more than an autarch (5)
 
Something Swordwind, named Swooping Hawk Hierarch, Biel Tan, just the Hawk Hierarch with a scimitar and a bare head, mohawk and a shooting weapon that is mainly out of picture but has a skull pommel
 
Asurmen: has two seperate set of rules. Only martial harmony rule is in both, no limitations for shrine creeds. Starts every (own?) turn with an aura, 3++, parry, fallback and do stuff. And can switch when aspect warrior destroys unit or model (don't remember which): +2 attacks, reroll hits and wounds, shoot twice with D3, reroll charge
 
Fireheart: Saim hann jetbike diorama character, resurrects at start of round unless enemy deals additional damage against dummy. The only picture is in the small datasheet bubble, so not much to see, except that it pulls a molten heart and fire wings and the riders have fiery axes. There are another two unit entries, that are only shown in the datasheet section:
 
both are a single Wraithguard sized model with avatar-like molten skin, burning shoulders. One is called Embers of Khaine and agonized eldar sized head with flame hair, dagger and blood bowl in hand, loose chains around wrist. melee infantry with high single digit wounds, two or three shrine creeds from any aspects, and exploding 6 melee aura.
 
anvil of souls, yme-loc specific, same body, but two-handed hammer in hand and no chains. repairs vehicles and deals MW to enemy vehicles
 
Striking Scorpions: Chainsword: +1 -2 D1, 2 additional attacks. Mandiblaster: in first round of combat: chainswords have +1 damage. I find this very unfluffy.
 
Warp spiders: flat 12" move, enemy units shot at cannot advance or take actions - the same rule is on other spinner stuff, no CP cost for Fire & Fade
 
Wraithguard split: Wraithcannon elite, d-scythe troops. d-scythe assault flat6, does need to roll to hit. Can use old D6 auto-hit profile only during overwatch
 
Dire Avenger/Guardians: both 4+ Save, Shuriken catapult Assault 3 18" S4, AP-1, Only Dire Avengers have the AP on 6 rule. Dire Avengers are the only (or the only one I am aware of) that have a baked in shrine creed and can take another: Defend(+1 Sv against attacks from units within 24")
 
Corsairs: elite infantry, plethora of options, brace of las pistols, lasblaster, melee weapons, deep strike, two traits, lasweapons, including scatterlasers etc. can shoot twice if at least one lasshot of unit hits. Second salvo hits automatically if it is the same target.
 
Rangers: cannot be targeted by units when no enemy unit is within 18" at all when in terrain. Can shoot twice as long as pathfinder leader lives
 
Windrider Fireblades: windriders with more attacks and power axes
 
Vyper: reroll to hits when advanced and moved full
 
Anvil of Something: wraith, vyper with power fist with MW aura
 
Wild Rider Host: fast melee unit with 9 wounds and transport capacity for aspect units
 
Support weapons: troop size flat 1, vibro cannon extra damage against units in terrain
 
Wave Serpent field is now 5++
 
No Storm Guardians and Jetbike Conclaves entries if it isn’t hidden as an option somewhere.
 
The only point costs I remember are wraith knights are now 420 points base and guardians are 9 points

11/1/2021 update

I have here some rumors for you. A bird twittered me this....

It looks like they switched the release slot for Horus Heresy with Warcry.

There was a plan to release a new Warcry Set in 2022 but it was earlier 
ready. Now HH is filling the other slot.
---
Also there will be something like a revamp of Adeptus Titanicus. There will 
be an expansion which introduce Planes and Ground Forces in AT.

This will be not actually a new Epic but it brings back 8mm Infantry and 
Tanks of the Legiones Astartes.

Infantry and Armour will be FW-Resin, no plans for Plastic at this state. 
It looks like they will use this as a test run to see how popular an actual 
Epic return in the future could be.


10/28/2021 Update

via a reliable source on Faeit 212

there exist plans to merge AT and AI into a Game like Epic but Covid and 
the caused release backlog with all it's issues slow this down (same with 
Gothic or other specialist games).

There're exist also plans in the drawer for expansion(s) to introduce 
airplanes, tanks and infantry as rudimentary support options (does someone 
remember that PC Game for AT?) but this is possible halted.

via excellent sources on Faeit 212

Hi Gary,
a little statement about Adeptus Titanicus.
Whatever People tell, AT will not de discontinued. It's the best running 
specialist game, even more than Bloodbowl.

This was sent in by a very solid source. Not usually so cryptic but perhaps I am just missing the references. A specialist game that would be a big announcement? Epic?

A little Fogheles twittered me:
Big announcement for specialist games next year
Something "big" is coming
Also HH soon(TM)
"Merry it is when Summer ye last, with Fogeles Song"


Leaked Lieutenant Custodes?





9.27.2021 Update

via Chapter Master Valrak
Did a video for anyone interested but will list what I was told by a source whom I trust
 

Chaos new models:
  • New Warpsmith
  • New Chosen Sqaud
 
Eldar:
  • New Rangers
  • New Jetbikes (Don't know what kind)
  • New Autarch - Has a Melta Gun

Again make of this what you will be this source has not been wrong yet.





BOLTERANDCHAINSAW LEAK:

'Heard third-hand from the same person that provided me with this rumour; to be digested with the usual pinch of salt.

In January 2022, we will get:

T'au:

Codex with reworked plastic Darkstrider

After January 2022, we will get (in no as-of-yet defined order):

CSM:

Plenty of new kits for 9th Edition.

Regular Possessed, Bikers, Chosen, Warpsmith, Cultists (BSF-style), Renegade Guard (BSF-style), human mutants, possessed humans (the latter two are monstrously horrible. Think of the Greater Possessed but cranked up to 11), cultist standard bearer (character), cultist character with bodyguards.

Chaos Knights:

New Knight variant with Codex

Craftworld Eldar:

A massive, but incomplete, update of Eldar

Without a specific date but in the pipeline:

Squats

World Eaters

Daemons

Astra Militarum with veteran-style Cadians. Two new regiments are also in the works. New Kasrkin and new vehicle, designed to fit between the Leman Russ and the Baneblade.'



4CHAN LEAK:

' Roadmap "leaks"

September 2021:
New Ork releases alongside a Black Templars army box, similar to the Sisters' and Beast Snaggas' boxes, containing:
Codex Cards Crusader Squad (6 Initiates and 4 Neophytes) Emperor's Champion Seneshal Redemptor
October and November 2021:
Complete BT release with

Ancient, Helbrecht, Grimaldus, Emperor's Champion, Seneshal, Initiates (6 Marines with Intercessor CC equipment or auto bolt rifles), 4 Neophytes (boltguns or chainsword). The Crusader kit will have options for a Sword Brother unit leader with cape, and there's a 15" AP-1 flamer.

The Sword Brother kit will have plenty of CC options and the option to make a Marshal (like with the Custodes Warden kit that gives you the option of making a Captain).

There will be two Crusader Squads: the old one that everyone knows and a new one made up exclusively of Primaris. The latter will be 5-11 Primaris Initiates, 4-8 Primaris Neophytes, and 1 Primaris Sword Brother. Neophytes will have 2 W and 2 A like other Primaris.

There'll also be a conversion/bitz/upgrade sprue that will have Templar relics on it (so-and-so's helmet, the sword of such-and-such, etc.), shotguns for Neophytes. and more customisation options like extra arms (Neophyte holding a helmet), or backpack-mounted candles. There will also be a multi-melta which will become a BT vehicle option. It'll replace the stubber on Primaris vehicles.

There will also be a Kill Team box with Sisters Neophytes (new kit and unit entry) vs T'au Pathfinders (upgrade kit) with existing Imperial city terrain.

December 2021:

Custodes and Genestealer Cults with a box, similar to the Hexfire (TS v GK) one, containing both factions, with a new character for each: GSC Saboteur and Custodes Lieutenant.

From the 4chan leaks/predictions guy that was right so far this year.'

ELDAR LEAK THAT'S FLOATING AROUND MAJOR SITES:

' Eldar Rumors

  1. Combined Codex: Craftworlds, Ynnari and Harlequins

  2. New Avatar of Khaine a lot bigger

  3. Shining Spear & Warp Spider phoenix lords plus plastic Baharroth

  4. Plastic Warp Spiders and Swooping Hawk kits

  5. Plastic shining spears/ranger bike dual kit

  6. Battle Focus will now be a d6 jump shoot jump ability

  7. New Harlequin mechanic, Quins can fit multiple squads in one transport

  8. A system very similar to miracle dice

  9. -1D on all wraith units'

Here are all the summary leaks of the last few days. Yes there 3 different leaks but I'm sure you will find them interesting atleast


Adeptus Custodes and Genestealer Cults rumored rules





JUGGERNUT RUMORS originally on tg

Massive section via Bolter and Chainsword via  Juggernut and others here:

Quote


> Are the Kill Team Octarius box orks/DKoK gonna be re-released separately? If so when?
Soon™ (Probs within 2-3 months)


> Will GW ever switch to dropper bottles?
Not for their regular paint range, pots are easier to use for yung'uns.
I have it on good authority that the 'air' paints will be put in dropper bottles at some point in the next year.

Quote


>New Eldar releases?
I don't know much. I know the Codex is in production because lore sections were sent to translators. The rumour engine is definitely the Avatar of Khaine though.

>Any models getting their prices lowered?
This may surprise you but there is going to be a regional repricing once a few logistics things are actual sorted. The AU, NZ, and JP prices are set to come down a bit and be more in line with Europe.

>Are the Warhammer Plus animators being treated well?
They are on good money, a pretty high pay banding. I can't speak for conditions however.

Quote

>will battlefleet gothic ever get a reboot?
Nothing on my radar.

>why is Kill Team so overpriced and how bad is the price gouging/milking going to be with future releases?
Eh, I think the price of KT boxes and models is fine.
However, I think our book pricing is egregious and needs to come down.

>are truescale firstborn marines ever happening?
No.

>are the artificer brushes produced by Winsor & Newton?
Artificer brushes are W&N.
Acrylics and regular brushes are made by a smaller UK firm.
 

Quote

Nothing on my radar [on changes to us and CA prices]. Apparently, the concern is that regional high pricing due to shipping and import nonsense is impinging on the growth of the hobby in AU, NZ, JP and the company is looking to mitigate that,
 

Quote

It isn't Coat D'arms [that make the older brushes].
It is a small firm that isn't well known and they are family run. I am not revealing the name as I don't want "/tg/ BOYCOTT GW " sending them censored.gif. This has soured relations with partners in the past.
 

Quote

>do you have any news on upcoming video games or why darktide got delayed?

No idea on Darktide.
Licensing is finally trying to expand away from mobile games and are looking at AAA games with PC and console releases.

Also, Dawn of War isn't dead. Have patience and thou shalt be rewarded.
>>80851245 #
 

Quote

>Any chance we'll get more Sisters of Silence options for Kill Team
Sisters of Silence is getting something, I'm not sure what, but something with the next Custodes codex.

>to add to this anything about the upcoming killteam boxes?
Tau and Sisters are getting a box. Also, there will be a new Harlequins unit released through the Kill Team line.

Also, forgot to mention, Adeptus Titanicus is getting squatted after a final release wave in 2022, I wouldn't invest unless you really love the models.

Quote

>Was it true they were testing the waters with titanicus to gauge interest in an Epic 40,000 re-release? Is that canned along with Adeptus Titanicus?

I was under the impression that Titanicus and Aeronautica were going to "dimensional merge" into a new epic. Not happening now lol.


>Will we ever get non digital good art again?

A lot of our art is still analog, look closely.

>Is there ever any talk about 3dprinting cutting into profits or threatening the company? What about legal censored.gif with other companies producing totaly not GW models, theres still loads around doing exactly what chapter house did.

Not really. We know 3d printed alternative models exist but it's something that less than 5% of hobbyists actually partake in. They also tend to be the most loudmouth cancerous :cusss so it's quite nice not having them come to our stores.

As for parts etc, keep an eye out for the future, you may see 3rd parties being partnered with to produce shoulder pads, conversion kits, customisation accessories in the future. An idea that is on the table and being pretty heavily debated at the moment.

>What's the general reaction to the reddit boycott from GW?
>How do company reacted to backlash due to recent IP infrigment changes?
Kill Team numbers are looking good. The fact is that we are quite happy for the "REEEE Boycott GW!!" fandom crowd to just remove themselves from the community. Improves it for actual hobbyists.
