The crossbow/bow guys go up for pre-orders Saturday... and the following covers the last of the sigmarines going up for pre-orders next week: "Stormcast Paladins are what is apparently in line for next week. Its one release/week at this point until Khorne Age of Sigmar releases start. I'd imagine its going to be single releases then as well. For next week the Stormcast Eternal Paladins have different names based on what weapon they bear, Retributors, Decimators, or Protectors. via Lady Atia – “next week are the Stormcast Eternals Paladins – Retributors (hammers), Decimators (axes), Protectors (glaives)” via birds in the trees on Bols www.belloflostsouls.net/2015/07/they-came-from-above-next-weeks-gw-releases.html Prosecutor based Kit – Stormclad Eternal Prosecutors (Flyers armed with spears & shields, or hammers) – New Realm of Battle “Age of Sigmar” tile – White Dwarf cover will feature a Prosecutors unit atop the new tile"

And for khorne next month we're expecting two clamshell heroes, a box for blood warriors, and some other things right? Also daemon waves start soonish for 40k and AoS. I'll be breathing a sigh of relief because I have no interest in the daemons haha, phew, so many cool toys

Would like for elves to get a release, seeing as of all the shiny ET books, they were the only one without new models to go with. Obviously some other armies need things as well, but I'm still bitter about the lack of cool elf ET models

I believe that the Aelfs will be getting new units... nothing for elves though I'm afraid and more details from Faeit: "This weekend's White Dwarf is leaked onto Twitter tonight, as we get a good look at the new Stormcast Eternals. Holy cow that Thunderbolt Crossbow is massive!!!! Also shown are two unreleased Hero models for the Stormcast Eternals. So it definitely looks like we will see a solid one more week before heading over to the dark side with Khorne. the two page spread of the Warlord Titan is also very cool to check out in the leaked images. Age of Sigmar Pre-Orders Stormcast Eternals Judicators 5 models $50 Black Library Pre-Orders Horus Heresy Scorched Earth Hardback $24 Horus Heresy Audio Drama $30 Horus Heresy Cybernetica $50 First up are the Highlight of this week's magazine release. Highlights from this week's White Dwarf via ShadowWolf32387 on Faeit 212 Highlights: Stormcast Eternal Judicators are definitely next. No mention of the bases or the pricing for new releases in the WD itself; but I don't discount they may be coming this week. Thunderbolt Crossbow for the Stormcast Eternals is MASSIVE. A company/battalion type structure for the Stormcast Eternal is shown for us to see, as well as history and organization in a written section. The company/battalion image shows the support officers as well, the "Auxillary Command" that are included within the Stormcast Eternals, showing off two yet unreleased hero models for them. One of the two remaining support officers carries what looks to be a standard, the other carries a blade and a trumpet. The five Blood Angels with the hints for next week are actually just part of the 10 man squad shown in "Regiments of Renown", nothing tied to the hints at all. No paint splatter except a quick four tile bit at the very end for the Celestial Vindicators. Leaked Images Leaked Images can be seen on Kenny's Twitter page. twitter.com/kennylull "

J4far, I want new beastmen, I want storm eternal sized bestigors, I want minotaurs that look like they're worth $20 a model, big hulking brutish sculpts with bulk and weight. I don't think I'm ever going to get them The ooruk release will probably see me starting a destruction army though lol

An interesting thing about the warscrolls deployment method, releases aren't tied to army books or cycles, presumably after this big starter box push any release could happen at any time!

I'm just bitter because the only ET release I was excited for was ET:Khaine, the only one they didn't release any models for. Fully aware that so many armies needed updating/new models, but was completely disappointed that all other (evil) armies got models with their ET books and elves didn't.
Also I refuse to call them Aelf. My elves will forever be elves, GW be damned!

Also I refuse to call them Aelf. My elves will forever be elves, GW be damned! You do know that the word elf descended from aelf...so technically they were aelfs first

Touche I suppose But if we all start talking in old english again, I shudder the thought. Do we have a notion of how long the AoS initial release block will extend? I'm hoping for consistent releases now that there aren't armies really, so no need to do waves every couple months. If they want the game to truly take off, they are going to need more than marines vs. khorne!

rumours I've heard for the remainder of 2015 for AOS:
finishing off Sigmarines (over next couple weeks) some units for khorne (to finish faction in August from starter set) new campaign book with the fire duradin - meaning it's likely to get releases there Aelfs after the tau 40k release (which by all accounts is a very short 2 week release window)
most rumour sites are saying that for the remainder of this year GW is pushing AOS hard with releases, and the 40k ones are small and not very new model intensive (which goes hand in hand with the machinery churning out AOS models - remember GW over the past few years now owns all their model producing equipment- they do everything in house)

Yeah I've heard people saying 6 months of solid AoS go go go.
When 40k swings up I think they'll probably still do a kit a month or something, since it's pretty easy for them to be like "here's one kit, warscrolls, enjoy this unit"

Yay! Will be back in Canada, starting a job in September and will actually have disposable income for shiny new models. Happy day!
