Being hammer chaos “Forces OF chaos” in November

Siamtiger wrote on 29 July, 2008 in being hammer Fantasy

On the Games Day in Cologne the dealers novelties for the Christmas business and into the early summer beyond that were already shown. In addition also the “Forces OF chaos” belongs, the new edition being hammer Fantasy of the mortal chaos “hordes/hurdles of the chaos”/“Hordes OF chaos”. Thus the 3 chaos is army books, with “demons of the chaos” and “Bestien of the chaos” conditions. The White Dwarf Vorabliste let close on an imminent appearance of this army book.

It will give some new plastic kits nevertheless, which will make this army somewhat more affordable. In addition belong;

* Plastics chaos knight (5 pieces)
* Plastics of chaos dogs (10 pieces)
* Plastics barbarian rider (5 pieces)

Concerning the price these about 20 - 22.50 EUR will be, similarly the well-known elite plastic boxes (Pistolliere, Dunkelelfen Echsen, Schwarzorks etc.). The chaos dogs should be very near because of the tin model and not be so ugly like the Untoten of wolves. The chaos knights do not receive different weapon options, whether lances are thereby, are clarified yet. However it meant the fact that the new horses for barbarians and chaos knights are very powerful - lets hope for the Imperiumsgeneräle that also it soon a replacement for those meanwhile 15 (!) Years to old riding animals receive.

The rumor over plastics chaos knight and mounted barbarians held itself on WarSeer, thereby however “officially” was before already confirmed.

Also the new tin figures are not too scarcely, there it the among other things following will give;

* Chaos general on dämonischem riding animal
* Chaos general on Moloch
* Champions of the Khorne unberitten
* Zauberer of the Nurgle unberitten
* Hero of the Slaanesh unberitten
* Hero of the Tzeentch unberitten

Likewise there is to be new chosen ones, with Hellebarde, which follow many more individually and before all another Design than the very static plastic models. An armed force box will also give it, receives thus the chaos after long waiting period finally such Bundle, which is to due primarily to missing plastic miniatures. To be contained are 12 warriors, 20 barbarians, 5 barbarian riders and 10 dogs. As me seems a meaningful combination, which quite justifies multiple purchases without a “overhang” to have, as with other armed force boxes.

To the discussed cultists there are no pieces of news, it seems even, as if these would not occur at all in the army book and are thereby of the table. Fans of the idea can copy themselves these however easily from Flagellanten of the empire and begin as chaos barbarians.

Had another word with a manager today and he said the following:-

-Archaon is going to be like Manfred with seperate entries
-Basic Warriors are going to have the stats of the current Chosen and Chosen are another step up on that
-Knights are S5 and will not be getting lances
-Mark of Khorne is still Frenzy
-Chaos Trolls are meant to be amazing i.e. S5 and for every 2 regeneration saves passed, they gain a bonus off the chaos mutation table

I believe this since I know a guy who read the book but won't release any information. He did however say that Chaos Trolls were "broke" and depending on how awesome chaos mutations are they could get crazy fast. Of course if there's a chance your troll turns into a puddle of goo then it could balance out.

For the very last time Wolfric the Wonderer is NOT Tzeentch, he is a marauder character of chaos undived.

BTW I have spoken briefly with an former italian employer and he gave me some hints about the hellcannon. Basically when goes on rampage it becomes a chaos spawn. It could be true or not.

Kumma juttu muuten, ettei lippu liehu juuri yhtään, vaikka yksikkö ratsastaa näköjään melko vauhtia :).

Ei, nuo ovat ihan aitoja. Ja todella hienoja, vieläpä... Lisää kuvia kun vielä saisi. Noita pitää ostaa useampi paketti. Toivottavasti maraudereille tulee optio sekä light armouriin että kilpeen, kuten dark ridereilla...

I understand there will be a marauder hero in the new book.

It's a marauder forsaken eque hero.

Their initiative is not as high as a chaos lords (and I assume WS as well, but I can't say that one for sure), but they get a few more attacks. They have no armor to speak of (from what I got), but are S5 and T5. But don't let that fool you into thinking they are lesser than their armored counterparts. They will be better at dealing damage to enemy squads, while chaos lords will be more suited against heros. And if their movement is as high as the forsakens movement is rumoured to be, then they will be a very tempting choice indeed.

Ne onkin jähmettynyt Kaaoksen kylmyydestä.

Silmäni sanovat, että yksikkö on kokonaan jähmettynyt paikoilleen.
Saas nähdä miten tuo lord- systeemi saadaan toimimaan, luultavasti itemit valitaan eri paikasta, tai sitten statit on väännetty todella erilaisiksi. Sen näkee sitten.

miten olis joku mutaatio lista, josta voisi ostaa sitten kykyjä, ominaisuuksia sun muita. (siivetsiivetsiivetsiivet ;))

There is said to be a Khorne Special Character on Juggernaut with a special Great Weapon.

The model is said to be absolutely stunning.

GW might have changed Arbaal's Flesh Hound mount to a Juggernaut.

Yeah that is going to be Arbaal the Undefeated. Each ruinous power is getting a special character.

Tzeench is getting Aekold Hellbrass (regeneration, greatweapon and ASF.)
Nurgle is getting Valnir the Reaper (flail that increases Valnirs strength and attacks the more he kills, similar manner to epidemius except it is all for him alone.)
Slaanesh is getting Dechalla the Denied One (Lots of poisoned attacks and killing blow IIRC.)

flagu kirjoitti:kansikuvassa olevat jampat ovat kuin termiksiä! Saa nähdä millaset figut niille sitten tulee.
