Standard thing, a new hero per side, and blah blah blah. Due out early 2022.

Worth noting that these are both Order factions. Is this the first time there has been a set like this with two factions from the same grand alliance?

As far as I can remember, it's the first box like that. I do like the divisions among the GA's though. Especially within order. IdK, DoK, and eventually Malerion's lot, are certainly not in it for the greater good. Now that the grand alliance allegiance armies are done, it makes even more sense to set up conflicts within them.

Broken Realms Morathi already set up Dok + IDK vs stormcast and their allies pretty well.

Not sure this is enough to really get me thinking about a deepkin army. And I don't think there's a force in the mortal realms strong enough to make me interested in fyreslayers. I do like both character models though.

seems like a decent box for those armies... I'm not really interested in them (although I use deepkin as my base for my wracks conversion in 40k) but it's a good amount of plastic for them.

Plus it's a starter box for AOS without stormcast!

I feel like there was a slaanesh vs Khorne box at some point too

You're right. I had forgotten about that. Thank you.

Yeah it's actually super unusual in this respect. These mid-edition versus boxes typically don't have core books afair.
