What a coincidence, looks like Teclis has decided "gently caress this poo poo, Nagash has GOT to go." Storming hell and loving up Death Itself is some quality AoS stuff, and I'm here for it.

hosed up that gw immediately contradicts established canon by giving a lumnieth a non-australian accent

Nah, Teclis only founded the Lumineth, so he definitely should have a British accent.

So we're apparently getting Warhammer Quest: Not-Vermintide.

But drat that Witch Hunter.

For a minute I thought they would reveal that the Witch Hunter was the same guy from Vermintide.

No vampire army announcement but given the warband, the warhammer quest stuff, and the leaked model it sure seems like its coming

Not enough pistols for that I feel.
But the pairing teased in the trailer is pretty much Vermintide either way.

The Witch Hunter and even the other guy, plus all four vampires, are definitely in the “I don’t play this game but I want to paint those models” category for me. Holy poo poo.

Also looks like, going by the website, there's going to be 8 different heroes available.

The official name for Vamps in AoS is Soulblight Vampires. They are still called Vampires.

I wish they'd release minis for the Ubersreik five (or four, doesn't matter).

Seems like such an easy tie-in

But what's the hulking figure on the side? An orc? The Witchhunter's quote on the website ("Morals are for the weak") could hint that he isn't picky on allies. It could be a free for all as the 'teams' of Order, Destruction and Chaos just wail on Death.

The site mentions undead and 'rats' on the streets of Ulk-whatever, I don't know if that means Skaven will show up as foes, or if that is a Skyre Warlock who doesn't much care who he tests his inventions on.

But, yeah, most likely a steampunk Dwarf. :sigh:

Anyway, yeah, looks interesting. I've pre-ordered that Heroquest reprint that'll hopefully arrive sometime in the autumn, I'll probably buy this too if the price isn't crazy-go-nuts.

Funny enough some of my friends on Discord had a similar argument on who that might be. I think we sorta settled on Ogre mercenary of some kind. But who knows.
There is going to be 8 characters in total at least.

Also this logo shows off a couple of more heroes.

One being a female stormcast, a female wizard of some kind. And yeah, the last one is a Dwarf.

Also the thing at bottom right looks like an undead Turkey. :v:

However there is a short story sequel called Hamilcar The Age of Enlightenment. Which has him working with Settrus. (Also Settrus debuted in a full novel.)

And this exchange happens.


Settrus permanently dies in a sacrifice to stop Mannfred from getting his prize soon after.

Which frees him up to be brought back if GW ever decides to create another ancient Egypt knockoff, presumably.

Should note that’s the named version. The generic version has a different pose and can be briefly spotted in the video.
