So I think I'm gonna sell my Dwarfs for OnG's. They were my first love anyway but I didn't think they'd get updated this quickly. Now all the new shinies and gubbins...
The following people are amazing and I love them: Wildcat, Timspork, Kias, Denada, susan, Sharp101, [GHSC]Ryctor, Matev, Matrias, ItBurns, Slapnuts, Dayspring, see317, and the unknown poster that sent me a box of Death Company! If you get them as Santees you should buy them amazing things!
Oh yeah you're looking for Dwarfs huh? If you want I can try to borrow my roommates camera and take some pics of the stuff, it's about 2500 points worth of stuff.

I'd still like to know who decided that the entire High Elf army should get to reroll to hit against pretty much everything else.
To be fair, it was probably the same guy that decided that most of their stuff would crumple like paper to blast templates and guns.
I wouldn't be so annoyed if it required their Initiative to be HIGHER, not EQUAL to or higher. Practically everything beyond Assassins and special characters are I5 or below.
EDIT: Essentially it gives their entire army the Dark Elves army wide rule of hatred except that it's active all the time, not just the first round of combat. Sure I have hatred against High Elves all the time too but it's like they're sticking out their pale tongues and giving me the finger.
Look if you guys would just get the fuck off our island so Malekith can take his rightful place as the ruler of all elves, we wouldn't be having this conversation.
Malekith would be a lot scarier if there was more to his character than getting his arse kicked by a couple of upstart kids and then running home to mummy.
I haven't used Malekith since the 7th edition DE book came out.
And I'm not likely to anytime soon; MAYBE if he's in some horde of something amazing like Black Guard with the Unbreakable BSB. But that's a shitton of T3 points waiting to eat it.
An ancient race that has lain dormant for thousands of years, the Tomb Kings now awaken from within their ancient burial pyramids. Cheated from the eternal life that they were promised, the Tomb Kings are instead doomed to an eternal undeath - awakened they thirst for vengeance against those who would disturb their slumber.
At the command of these undying lords march legions of implacable Skeleton Warriors, hosts of chariots crewed by long-dead crewmen and towering statues carved from unyielding stone.
The armies of the Tomb Kings are vast, unstoppable hordes that know neither fear nor remorse - and they shall not rest until all who stand against them are laid low.
This May Warhammer: Tomb Kings is released, containing everything you need to use the legions of Nehekhara in your games of Warhammer.
Alongside the new book we'll also be releases a slew of amazing new miniatures for Tomb Kings players to collect and add to their armies. Details are being kept firmly under wraps for now, but more details will be available over the coming months. To make sure you're the first to see the new models and read the latest news keep your eyes fixed to the pages of White Dwarf, the Games Workshop newsletter and the What's New Today blog.
In the meantime, if you're a Tomb Kings player (or thinking about becoming one) it's time to start building up your Undead hordes in preparation for the new arrivals. So, out with the large drybrush (and the pot of Bleached Bone) and onwards to glory!
Presented below are two exclusive sneak peeks at the upcoming releases. Please keep checking back on the website, and in White Dwarf for more information in the near future
Tomb kings in may. Seems they're picking up the pace on the release schedule, which has to be a good thing.
Edit: The release schedule seems to be holding to what was leaked on warseer a while ago, which was green people, then dead people, then fat people. So Ogres are looking good for later this year at this rate.
I think is was Avian (?) on Warseer, one of the primary rumor sources, that said Orcs in Feb, TK in May, and OK in August; several months back.
So far he's 2 for 3, and my boxed up OK army is waiting for August.

Oh dear; looks like so many peeps were anticipating today's "what's new" they broke GW's site. Again.
Pity there's almost nothing about Orcs&Goblins there.
as someone on warseer pointed out, Orcs and Goblins will sell no matter what, they are a popular army and wont have a problem moving the new models. On the other hand TK are very old army with a smaller player base.

Still can't believe they're repackaging the Orc Boyz from a 19 model to a 10 model box

What a load of dookie
They did something similar in 40k, but added more options to the sprue and lowered the price so that it was actually cheaper per model.
e: I'm seriously so psyched about the new OnG release that I might sell my Space Marines so that I can afford to have the proper quad-fecta of Ork(c)s: BFG, Epic, 40k and Fantasy.

That is a huge net gain for your local community. Everyone loves playing with or against orcs. No one loves marines.
Yeah. I almost haven't played my marines since Space Wolves came out, and I literally have not played them once since Blood Angels hit. Plus like timspork said in the 40k thread, then I can use all these Orcs for extras in my Green Tide during apoc games...
e: can totally proxy the giant spider as a Gargantuan Squiggoth too, fuck yes
Oh fuck you GW. I was all set on playing beefing up my Chaos horde and getting my Skaven on. Now this. Son of a bitch. TK in May. Screw you. Screw you hard.
Alright guys I might as well post this here: I've got a bunch of Dwarf stuff that I'm gonna be selling, hopefully as a lot, for 35-40% off of retail. If anyone's interested shoot me a PM.
It is a beautiful lot, that I reeeeeally want, but I've decided to not buy a shit ton of stuff before I know the rules :P It was a rare instance of self control

They're not fat, they just have big bones! The fluff says so!
or you can give it a catapult thing-y which launches big globs of web that make units hit 'Always Strike Last' and if you misfire it can't explode or anything, it just can't fire.

Where's the fun in that?
On a roll of 6, a curious but unlucky goblin tries to get a closer look at the web shooter and falls inside, making the spider explode.
But I'm already planning to use a Varghulf and that would be - akward
From a while back, but I thought I'd chip in. I used a Varghulf, and customised it using green stuff for a saddle and reigns from... the corpse cart i think? Either way, it turned out looking quite nice, and very non varghulfy
Apparently the upcoming O&G book contains exactly 8 magic items. And if this report is true, every one of them is overpriced and/or useless:
Battleaxe of the Last Waaagh! - 100pts (Weapon)
+d6 to Strength and Attacks, half that bonus as penalty to weapon skill
Basha's Axe of Stunty Bashin' - 50pts (Weapon)
+1 Strength and Attack, double that bonus plus fear vs Dwarves
Armour of Gork - 100pts (Armour)
+d3 Toughness (roll first time you are hit in the turn and that bonus stays for the entire turn), also gives Impact Hits (d6)
Lucky Shrunken Head - 50pts (Arcane Item)
Ability I cannot remember, also increases Savage Orc Warpaint ward save from 6+ to 5+, increases Wurrzag's to 4+. Savage Orc shaman or great shaman only.
Morks Spirit Totem - 100pts (Banner)
Unit gains Magic Resistance d6 (rolled first time the unit is hit by a spell, lasts the whole turn). Also no enemy magic items in base contact with bearer will work.
Spider Banner - 50pts (Banner)
Goblin BSB only (specifically says night goblins cannot take it). Unit gains Poisoned Attacks.
Bad Moon Banner - 50pts (Banner)
Night Goblin BSB only. Unit gains stubborn and soft cover. Models that charge into base contact with unit must make dangerous terrain test.
Skull Wand of Kaloth - 75pts (Enchanted Item)
At beginning of combat phase pick a model in base to base with user, Ld test or die no saves of any kind allowed. User also causes terror.

That wasn't very nice of you, Games Workshop.

It's a bit of a shame about Tyrion and Teclis. Tyrion is pretty mediocre and Teclis is so over powered people get the sooks if you take him.
