Huzzah! Cavalrys!

[Asymmetrical Xeno]

Huh, a 2nd knight-Heraldor, a 2nd plastic clam pack, I think thats a first (?)

A second battletome for Stormcast Eternals already? Just because they added cavalry?

Good thing you can get unit rules outside the books and only need them for battalions.

Still, that's got to be extra "meh" to people who just aren't enthralled by Sigmarines and would like other factions to get some love. So far it's just Sigmarines, Khorne, Nekkid Dwarfs, and more Sigmarines. And there was a bunch of Khorne at the end of WFB's life, too.

Erik, they have mentioned Lord-Commanders and there are dudes with wings in the back of the picture, it may be the same thing but meh. The point being there are probably more than two warscrolls in it. Quit your incessant moaning.

There are more, but still, it's a fair point - not "incessant moaning" (certainly no more than your acceptance and cheering is "unnecessary cultlike cheering") - that they released a Stormcast Eternals Battletome and are already doing a second one. It's not a necessary buy, so that's good. But it can't help with the people who are wanting to see new factions that aren't Khorne or Sigmarines.

If you like AoS, you should be hoping for more new factions, too. If you love Sigmarines, okay, cool, I get that you like new stuff. But you should still be able to recognize why people might be disappointed in how it looks. (It also feels weird... You'd think these models were done before, and if so, it'd be a much better idea to release them all at the same time. The second book won't sell well enough for them to have held off just to do a second book as a money-grab, so that's not the reason. Makes me really curious what held up this set of releases. That curiosity isn't meant as criticism, either, just genuinely wondering whether something happened like molds breaking, or someone didn't like the way the models were turning out and they had to redesign them, whatever. Probably not important, I just tend to wonder about things like that.)

I am actually a Chaos player, so your point is invalid. I bought a 20 quid book that has pretty much everything I need for now, sorted.

[Mr Mystery]

You missed Seraphon. And Clans Pestilens. And Archaon.

But hey, artistic license I guess.

We were told that the plan was to move to a rolling release shedule where armies could get new units whenever the design studio was done with them, so it's interesting to see this already in action. As for whether these were ready six months ago, it's possible they were, but that would have been a helluva lot to drop in one go.

I'm not a Stormcast player, but I expect they would rather be getting these now than having to wait three years for a new book to come out! On the matter of the book, is there a new one or is that just speculation? If so, it would be nice if it's priced like the Clan Pestilens book.
