I was too.

I know, right?

 

[Carnikang]

Hold Fast spawn brethren. One day we will get dice as nice as the BB lizardmen dice.

Fyreslayers and Sylvaneth are desperate for new kits, each having only 4-5 unit choices, and they decide to give slaneesh 9 more?

Fyreslayers in particular, we’ve got a lot of unnamed characters but WE NEED MORE UNITS!

That Christmas Day and New Year reveal were certainly the worst on record. GW have a truly dreadful sense of priority.

 

[Imrahil]

On the topic of dice. Why do different factions get different shaped dice(not color and icons, but physical shape)?




Slaanesh gets smooth corners and DoK almost sharp corners.

Doesn't this influence the roll in any way?

Grrr, Imrahil

 

[Canas]

Different shapes can still be fair, so I guess it doesn't really matter and is just a way to make things look cool/unique.

 

[Imrahil]

Thought it might be an issue for some opponents to be cross about... not happened to me yet.
Esthetically it sure is cool

Grrr, Imrahil

Yikes! Those witch aelves build up hits and attacks, and get good re-rolls.

People already use a mix of square and round cornered dice so i'm not sure how it would suddenly be an issue now.

I use square corner dice (just what i like and happen to have purchased) but most chessex dice are round cornered and that style has certainly been more popular at the events and such i've been too.

GW also isn't consistent on whether their own dice have squared or round corners. They go back and forth a lot. It definitely seems to be an aesthetic/stylistic choice on their part.

 

[Canas]

Officially confirmed now, slaanesh gets 11 new units.

 

[Imrahil]

Ok, but I count 10 in this article. Which one am I missing?
Or is there still one to come?

Grrr, Imrahil

 

[Togetic]

Could they be counting the dread pageant from underworlds?

 

[Jason839]

time to start painting the double bastiladon thunderquake list. there be some demons needing vaporizing.

looking forward to seeing it. buuuuuut bastiladons only do more damage to CHAOS DEAMONDS and all the new slaanesh units are mortals

 

[Lord Agragax of Lunaxoatl]

Officially confirmed now, slaanesh gets 11 new units.

Well I sincerely hope this stops the Slaanesh fanatics whinging about how they didn’t get any mortals.

They should be grateful they got any new models at all beyond the bare minimum in their original second edition update.
