Anyone made a fart/bad gas joke yet?

Just noticed he has 2 bell ends! The second one is rather well hung... off his robes.

Must be the dong to his other bell's ding.

I'll get my coat.

They are coming out with 6 different "wizards" from 6 different factions that come with a mini that represents the spell they are casting.

I think it is a great idea. Sure other companies will jump on THAT bandwagon as soon as they can.

[Lost Egg]

I think there have been minis to represent spells for years its nothing particularly new.

Ah... I'm not much of a fantasy person so not really an expert. Haven't seen such minis though but I will defer to you all since I'm pretty much a newb to such things.

I'm not particularly up to date either, I thought AoS did away with most complex spells that needed tokens on the table?

It's a new part of the second edition. Malign sorcery. We don't know much yet, but the description given is that the new edition lets you have cinematic magic.Spells that dominate parts of the board, that move and target or just hang around.

also in AOS spells aren't part of the core rules , but are on the warscroll of the caster. MAlign portents had a few that hung around.

This fits with the way GW has changed its idea of scenery as something players are expected to scratch build to not only stuff that you buy from GW but that has rules and points costs.

My immediate thought was that she is holding up an aerosol can. Is she casting 'The Lynx Effect'?

That burning skull was pepersprayed into retreat :>

[beefcake]

I think it would be great just as a fire elemental

I am digging those spectral undead.  I love that mounted model.  Better the dead, than those silly fish elves.

Me too.

I have quite a large Vampire Counts army made up across the 7th and 8th edition Warhammer days, which has most choices. Coincidentally some of the very few options I don't have for the army is a unit of Wraiths, a mounted Wight King and a Black Coach - all of which has been previewed by the Warhammer Community over the past week, and all of which look nice enough to buy...

Maybe time to start adding to the pile of bones again...

[AWu]

While I like fish elves but not enough to want any in my collection (except octopus + some guy..)

I totally love wraths.

My fav death units are skeletal horde  (I was spoiled by old Blansche art from cover of WFRP expansion) but apart from Shadespire 7 (and skeletal knights) we have cool but weak posed units from few editions ago and not much hope of overhaul. I totally miss the charm of GW ghouls and mega ghouls but spectral coach and specters and now those wraiths we  are seeing I see myself buying.. just beautifull models..

GW just out out an article on WC warning of an upcoming price rice on brushes.

30p per brush roughly, But they give their reasoning and said they wanted to give advance warning.
Seems pretty fair , Although the only GW brush i use is the little starter brush they give away with painting sets.
