After all, painting 100 night goblins is something you do in the morning just before you are off to work.

And I think you missed a 0 when you wrote 11 armies. The correct nr should be 110 armies I would think, based on your painting speed.
Yes
Well, whilst I wait for the plethora of others to say how much they hate that damned publication, I shall indulge you in knowing my intentions...

What do you make of the "News... In Brief" section? And I quote;

If you go down to the woods today you're sure for a big surprise... especially if it's one of the dark woods that cover the Old World. Not the traditional end to the rhyme, but it's what certain games developers have been singing recently. What does it mean? Find out in a few months' time.

Exactly what I was thinking... First thought to dance through my head, was WE's. But, then common sense kicked in, and told me that I was mad. Then, I thought, BoC. So, thoughts? :)

It is going to blow your *#*#ing minds.

Some times the dice love you, some times they don't. But when you roll 11's and 12's on the panic tests and 3's and 4's on the flee distance, you can be pretty sure that your dice are having an affair.
Dude, if I had space, that'd be sig'd :)

Definitely Beasts of Chaos the 3rd in the Chaos series to be updated.

First: JJ! Stay out of Evii's posts! :P that's too many smilies AND a position against the WD to be handled by mere mortals.

It's certainly Beasts of chaos.
Though rumors will stay vague up until at least december.

So, if we are certain (almost) that it is indeed Beasts being revamped, can this be a rumours thread? :)

And, I swear I never had anything to do with Evii's momentary loss of sanity *flutters eyelashes* It is not my fault he found himself the victim of the Smiley Infection :D Although, the Anti-white-dwarf-ist comment was entirely my fault, and I should never have bribed him...  :oops: Evii, I wantmy $5 back  :|

Too late! Its as good as spent. :D

No but seriously, I agree that they are refering to BoC. While I am a rat at heart (and mind and body and odour), I still look forward to seeing how they fix the beasts, as they are the ones who need it the most. Even you Ogres have a better set-up than them.

Really looking forward to the BoC book. It will likely be my 3rd (4th?) army.

I think that is really up in the air.

I hope they get some flying skirmishers.

I'm sure herds will be in, and Minotaurs as well.

It's in the air, and more of a "what are we hoping" question ;)

Flying skirmishers? Such as?

Minotaurs will be, as will centaurs methinks :) What do we think about shaggoths? I reckon they'll be gone this edition...

Steven Colbert was right.

funny part of this was i just gave my Beast of Chaos odds and ends to this kid at the store Weds cause i felt bad that his army book kind of blows; now i could have sold them.   

oh well, karma will come back around hopefully.

I would like to see the "Ambush" rules revamped a bit - I always felt they were a little too unreliable making the ability not as consistent and characteristic of what they were trying to accomplish with the army. Making it a little more accurate would add an amazing strategy and tacticum to the army as a whole I think.

Do you think it is possible the design team is working on both a new BoC and WE book at the same time? They are classic enemies after all ...
Forum Primer - Please read! - The Bellower

Ogre Achievements Complete: 10/101
It is possible. And I am inclined to believe such, if it weren't for the fact that WE's don't need revamping as bad as other armies... But since when did GW care?

would that be called "riding bearback?" ;)

the WD line would seem to indicate BoC coming soon - and frankly, its needed so its not totally suprising.  Let's jsut hope ogres get a look in before the end of next year...

I recall a rumor about a minotaur character pulling a herdstone.
I recall a rumor about a minotaur character pulling a herdstone.

One of the early rumours. I'd be very surprised if it was true, as theres already something in the game that is covering that angle.
It comes to something when you can create life with your bare hands, but can't shoot a shambling monster from six feet away.
That doesn't say anything Fenrir: warshrine, cauldron of blood, anvil of doom all have similar purposes and even with the plague cart for the new skaven and corpse cart/ black coach there are a lot of similar units.

Though the rumour about the herdstone unit has died out abit.
