MexicanNinja Posted October 23, 2014 Report Share Posted October 23, 2014 It's about time that Karl ascends to Sigmar-like power. I have to agree with this post. The amount of "stuff" this douche bag has done for The Empire is flipplin insane. There's a reason why this dude's as bad ass as he is on the battle field. When Ghal maraz gets to swinging, you best "beat it nerd!" There is one other figure I would LOVE to see at a higher power.....LUTHOR HUSS!!!!! He's always been my favorite Sigmarite Warpriest. He is just a bad mamajama! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kremmet Posted October 23, 2014 Report Share Posted October 23, 2014 Also, you know, the whole part of Nagash where he lives after losing to Walach and frees Deathclaw from the Chaos army. And where Martak was already revealed to be the new Supreme Patriarch. None of that is news as it all happens in chapter four. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't read a single page of the fluff because I'm not dropping that much money just to read fluff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is one other figure I would LOVE to see at a higher power.....LUTHOR HUSS!!!!! He's always been my favorite Sigmarite Warpriest. He is just a bad mamajama! I too would love to see Luthor Huss rise to a higher position. I read his novel and thought to myself that this guy has got a destiny. Still would like to see him with the hammer and the sword the peasant girl wielded. That would be fitting and a tribute to his goal to protect the innocence left in the Empire. (And if you haven't read the novel he Really is a hand and prophet of Sigmar. The peasant girl is not mentioned in the army book but her influence and sacrifice helped Luthor become the bad a&& he is today.) Also all the End Times books happen within the same time but those of us who haven't read the first don't know of any of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pretre Posted October 23, 2014 Report Share Posted October 23, 2014 http://www.beastsofwar.com/warhammer-fantasy/warhammer-times-villain-glotkin-finally-spotted/Worth a look over on BoW. Rest of images spoilered, just thought I'd leave this one out as it gives us a good look at detail. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pretre Posted October 23, 2014 Report Share Posted October 23, 2014 Here is some info on the new glotkin releaseGlottkin:-3 brothers, Ghurk (Beast), Ethrac (Sorcerer), Otto (Warlord)-Biggest kit yet for all Chaos armies, might be bigger than Nagash-2 head/hand options for Otto, aka helmeted/unhelmeted and holding asevered head/his own entrails-The brothers are NOT conjoined-Fluff: As their parents, peaceful Norscan farmers,were murdered byimperial troops, the three wanted to take revenge and took up theirrespective equipment, aka Scythe and Wizardry/Healing. Mutating into agiant-sized beast was just an addition for Ghurk.-The 3 nails put through a lot of stuff as already seen on the MaggothLords is the Glottkin's symbol-They're Archaon's "scouts" and were sent to kill Karl Franz and destroyAltdorf-No rules in the WD for them, sadlyChaos:-Archaon still doesn't take action but rather sends Glottkin and Valkia todo his dirty work in the Empire/NaggarothEmpire:-New High Patriarch is called GregorMartak-Karl Franz is alive and has new rules in the Glottkin book, he's calledsomehthing along the lines of "The ascended Karl Franz" and can resurrectfrom the dead if killed in-game, though no word's given on how often. Inanother fluff text, he's called the "Mightiest fighter of the Forces ofLight". Make of that what you wish.Bretonnia:-Louen Leoncoeur is alive! Yes you read that right. He lives and now servesas a vassal to Gilles le BretonTimline:-The Glottkin book spans over half a year, from spring 2525, when Nagash isawoken and sends out his Mortarch Vlad to help the Empire, up to autumn2525 and concludes in the attack on Altdorf, which happens at about thesame time as the defeat of Settra at Nagash's hands and the downfall ofNehekhara. Basically the stories of "ET: Glottkin" and "ET: Nagash" areparallel."ET: Glottkin" contains rules for a new game style called "Streets ofDeath" and includes rules for fighting in cities, e.g. Altdorf andMarienburg. Manning barricades and destroying buildings are just 2 featuresmentioned that come into play during the BatRep (which the Good Guys winactually).The Paint Splatter article doesn't give hints about next week, strangely.The "What's Next" part, however, says "Atemgeräte an!", which translatesto "Turn on your respirators!", "Building a Legion of Chaos", and "Codex:Apocryphes" (however this doesn't say anything at all). 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMGraham Posted October 24, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 24, 2014 Streets of Death sounds like it could be a blast. Sounds like, once I'm done casting for my most recent Kickstarter, I know what I'm doing next! I need a city's worth of buildings! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don't Panic Posted October 24, 2014 Report Share Posted October 24, 2014 my friend who plays DoC and WoC is geeking out about using his stinking pink horror brigade with a herdstone... plus a lvl4 on disc, greater daemon... *shivers* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AgentP Posted October 24, 2014 Report Share Posted October 24, 2014 I'm kind of overwhelmed with the DoC/ WoC/ Beasts combos. And summoning daemons to boot! There are just so many possibilities. At a bare minimum, I'm getting the ol' beast band back together, time to break out the dragon ogres, trolls, and chaos ogres from storage.

JMGraham Posted October 24, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 24, 2014 I'm just happy that I'll be able to go back and play my Old-Skool Hordes of Chaos army the way it was meant to be played. No more using Plaguebearers as Chosen Warriors of Nurgle, using Beasts of Nurgle as Chaos Trolls, or using Beastmen as unit fillers for my Marauders. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TJP Posted October 24, 2014 Report Share Posted October 24, 2014 Looks like the models and book just went up on the GW site. End Times: Glottkin. Sigh, if only it wasn't Nurgle-centric! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Threejacks Posted October 24, 2014 Report Share Posted October 24, 2014 I`ll be picking them up mainly to continue the storyline read which is Awesome..down to the final battles in book one now:) And the new game modes,scenarios and rules are very nice additions. But yeah I don't have any desire to do WoC or Demonic things...But my next Armies will probably be Empire and High Elves for my Order side of things.

rudra34 Posted October 29, 2014 Report Share Posted October 29, 2014 So rules from the book are starting to surface, and since I have nothing else going on today I will post as many as I can find. -Beasts have access to marks in the new book, 2 points per model for infantry, 1 point for mark for slaanesh. -The ascended Karl Franz has a combined profile with Deathclaw, and stats like a freaking god. -Glotkin are 190 points less than the big clown, have a shared profile as well (with 12 wounds!) Nothing else so far. More to come. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Murphy'sLawyer Posted October 29, 2014 Report Share Posted October 29, 2014 Wait wait wait. Karl and Deathclaw have a combined profile? Oh oh, I see where this is going. Being an Empire player I am excited and concerned, I wanted to get Karl Franz but don't want him to be too powerful. Also a combined profile model means that future monster mounts will also get that too. Can we say 3+ ward save rerolling ones? I really hope not.

Missed that part. Well time to start adjusting my thoughts to prepare for more monstrous mounts. Then again time to get my DE dragon painted and a Wyvern ordered.

rudra34 Posted October 29, 2014 Report Share Posted October 29, 2014 Karl Franz has the same saves as before, a bound spell that works like chain lightning but hits the same target up to 3 times in a row, has a powered-up Ghal Maraz which does d3+1 wounds rather than d3. Oh, and in his combined profile he has 10 attacks with it... Costs the same at the glotkin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rudra34 Posted October 29, 2014 Report Share Posted October 29, 2014 Many beast units get marks, but not all. Characters and chariots get them for 10 points (5 for slaanesh). Beastmen characters and champions are treated as champions of chaos, and may roll on the eye of the gods chart (woo!). However, a roll of a 12 is treated as a roll of a 2 for them (boo!)
