Blood bowl 2 bretonnian roster8/2/2023 It wouldn't surprise me if there's a desire to avoid doing too much with the TOW Dark Elves until after Malerion and his elves are (finally) added to AoS, assuming that GW hasn't decided to postpone that indefinitely. But I would be very surprised if the others didn't periodically make cameo appearances in the on-going narrative, with accompanying army lists for the armies showing up in those specific events.įor that matter, if the narrative ever reaches Praag, then the Dark Elves pretty much *must* show up at that point, since they launch a massive invasion of Ulthuan at the same time that the forces of Chaos are attacking the Empire.Īlso, just throwing this out there with no supporting evidence whatsoever, but Malerion is still missing from AoS (add him to the game already!). The core nine are going to get the most updates - at least initially (which will be an unusual situation for the Tomb Kings, to say the least). Druchii, for instance, can show up anywhere and at any time due to raiding - either something aimed explicitly at the high elves (who, we're told, maintain outposts along the coasts), or a slave grab that's particularly prominent for some reason (maybe it delayed Empire troops needed for a campaign or the locals mistakenly thought the raiders were High Elves from a nearby outpost, and a punitive expedition was launched). But you can still get the others appearing from time to time. I read this to mean that the primary focus will be on the nine races interacting with each other. It said that they weren't part of the narrative. The link didn't say that the "outer" races weren't part of the game. My guess is we see the same as with Necromunda, a cut down release to get something this year, narrative books with armies to cover the next year, a proper core rulebook after that and army books followingĪnd depending on how well this goes and if they get replaced /new models in AoS the next wave of narrative books followed by army books of the other armies Hence we see High Elves because there a new ones in AoS, Wood Elves because only the Spirits made it (and we don't get those in TOW -> old metal treeman instead of the new plastic one) but not Skaven because their old models are still the core of the AoS faction Looking at it again it very much feels now that it was cut down because they got a new deadline to bring the game back until the end of the year and this is the best they can do combined with not being allowed to use anything that is still in AoS (like they needed to wait for the Dawnbringer in AoS to be able to get Empire back to TOW) The only reason I can think if is because fanboys are going to spend a 1000€ per army, praising the 30 year old models being still better than everything and the rules the best ever seen without ever opening the boxes and playing the game Why should people now buy models that did not sell back than because they were just bad? Why should it now not be DOA with the very same strategy that killed it? GW is picking the game up were they left it, so if it was not worth playing and a dead game back in 8th, why should the very same game now be different? Problem is rather "when", as does not help to tell people their proper army book is 5+ years after releaseĪnd saying that pdf rules are enough when the core has army books?Ĭompare this to still need to use the 8th Index to play your army in 10th 40k, because having rules is enough and it is playableĪnd were are now all the people talking about Warhammer Fantasy was not worth keeping and needed to be replaced? A news setting/expansion that features the armies that are not yet covered, of course this is possible
