As a one of last losers still playing Tzeentch, my favourite Chaos god, I have to admit I am beyond sad that we once again get nothing.

What is tragicomic is that GW knows how do scuplt Tzeentch (Ephilim) but for some reason Tzeentch is the forgotten faction. Especially when compared to other Chaos factions.

We need demon refresh (pink horrors, flamers). We need chaos warrior, chosen, knights type of units for Tzeentch. Named heroes.

Yet in 5th edition, we will get a fucking generic foot hero once more.
>>
>>97519635
slaanesh got their due, nurgle got their due, khorne is next (end-campaign wave+5th edition small wave less than a year later), then it's tzeentch (big 5th ed wave)

trust the plan

no demons btw
>>
>>97519651
NTA but both Boole and Whitefang cofirmed no Khorne until 5th edition.

Likewise, both confirmed that Slaanesh will get a foot hero this edition and nothing more. So that means Hedonites got just a foot hero in both 3ed and 4ed. They are going to get a larger release in 5th edition. Especially if it is elf centred as leakers are impying.
>>
>>97518894
>tq
In theory I like tzeentch more but in practice loomies have the better range atm. I feel like I could cobble together a lumineth army with the units I actually like and have a decent amount of choices. I can't really say the same for tzeentch atm. Also am I blind or do they not have the sphiranx and the vortex beast? Why? Especially the latter why the fuck is that a StD unit instead?
>>97519635
>>97519651
Yeah tzeentch got some stuff in early aos but hasn't gotten much since. Few years after that slaanesh got their massive refresh and now nurgle recently, so now tzeentch and khorne are due more stuff. Khorne will probably get some stuff when they do khull and whatnot, so I think it's pretty likely we'll see tzeentch get some attention in 5th. Idk how they're doing in 40k but it's been a while since the tzeentch guys got anything substantial there too right?
>>
>>97519651
Khorne already has tons of units from 1ed for fuck sake. Why more?
I get they will get demon prince Khul.

Why no demons?
>>
>>97519761
>Why more?
alot of it needs refreshes. At least the endtimes stuff like juggernaunts and the chaff.

Kinda crazy nurgle got the pusgoyles into second edition and khorne has just gotten pity heros and a warcry band. after 1e.
>>
>>97519749
>They are going to get a larger release in 5th edition.
no, they aren't, they aren't getting anything more for a long time
>>
>>97519761
>Why more?
same reason as stormcasts: the 1st ed releases sucked and tainted aos' reputation
>>
>>97519758
Please see >>97519761

Khorne has tons of stuff from 1ed. Maybe some unit refresh and Khul.

Nurgle now has the largest range.

Skaven will get Eshin wave 4th and then Pestilens later (Boole and Whitefang confirmed).

I think Tzeentch and Slaanesh will get love in 5th.

Maybe something for Hashut too.
>>
>>97519749
>NTA but both Boole and Whitefang cofirmed no Khorne until 5th edition.
Not really right? Whitefang said "later than you would like" back in june last year, and the Reformation guy just said "soon" a few months ago. Although I think the latter still needs to be corroborated by some reveals to be considered a proper leaker.
As for slaanesh they got their big release waves in 2nd edition, a few years after the other gods. They're good for a while I think, maybe a smaller drop like obr just had to refresh daemonettes and the like. But they feel like they've got a relatively solid range atm, could always use more of course but not that pressing.
>>
>>97519772
NTA but you are very naive if you think GW will give HoS another hero for 5th edition.
>>
If they make the blissbarbs etb then i'll buy into slaanesh.
>>
>>97519635
Not to rub salt in your wounds but as Nurgle fan in both AoS (and we got stuff in WHFB) and 40k, it is surreal how much more love Nurgle gets compared to Tzeentch.

Sounds like that theory of Nurgle being favorite of several lead desingers is true.
>>
>>97519795
Right, just like they did with Tzeentch for three editions in a row.
>>
>>97519823
erm, tzeentch got a warcry band. tyvm. Also I think the tzaangor on discs were 2nd edition.
>>
>>97519823
Jade Obelisk, bro.

Slaanesh never got Warcry warband.
>>
Its a fair bit I guess.
>>
>>97519828
>tzaangor on discs were 2nd edition
No, they were part of the initial release during first edition.
>>
>>97519849
I wonder what the reaction to them was like at the time.
>>
Each aelf faction opposes one of the four chaos gods in particular, right?

>Lumineth against Tzeentch
>Sylvaneth against Nurgle
>Khainites against Khorne
>Idoneth against Slaanesh

Does that sound about right? Not sure about the last two.
>>
>>97519863
DoK and Khorne have obvious overlap, but no real interaction.
Deepkin don't realy give a fuck about Chaos. Teclis is a bigger villain for wanting to genocide them than Slaan for making them retarded
>>
>>97519863
only nurgle and sylvaneth have a special relation
the other elves all oppose slaanesh the most

Honestly, tzaangors were the models that got me into DoT. I always liked marked beastmen and tzaangors were the only plastic one at that time. Still love the models and wouldn't mind more new bird-goats. Although chaos warriors of Tzeentch would be more preferable for sure.
>>
>>97519863
Eh like the other guys said it's really only sylvaneth that have an actual rivalry with a chaos god besides slaanesh. There's obvious thematic ties between lumineth/tzeentch and DoK/khorne but nothing really substantial lorewise, where they're all tied way more to slaanesh. I'd say DoK even more so than idoneth despite your list.
It'd be cool to explore those parallels a bit more, because as with sylvaneth/nurgle the thematic overlap is there.
Only exception ironically is idoneth, who despite being very tied to the whole slaanesh plot with their soul gimmick aren't all *that* close thematically, again way less than DoK for example.
I think maybe I remember one of their tomes does mention something about the depths of the ocean dulling their senses? Something like that?

Seriously, why does GW treat Tzeentch so poorly?
>>
>>97520159
it's not that they hate it, it's that they have no idea on how to do it well

if they hate something it's slaanesh because it's a relic of a different time and it doesn't sell regardless of what they do
>>
>>97520159
>The only god to lose his most favored mortal to a generic character model
Unironically this was the best thing to do for the character. Vlitch is a glup shitto and is less one of his favored playthings but the only featured one he really had in fantasy besides…I guess hellbrass? I dunno.
>>
gaunt summoners SHOULD technically be named characters, but again that’s a demon.
>>
>>97520178
same with the cancerborn.
>>
>>97520168
From what I can see they've done every other god faction fairly well. Nurgle knocks it out of the park with just about every model in the range. Khorne is boring but at least has the theme of big berserking brutes, but I do think they could use more traditionally armored models instead of half naked crack heads.
Slaanesh I actually think is fairly well done now. The mortals all look really good and the army as a whole sticks to the theme of sensuality and artistry pretty well. The daemonettes absolutely should be sexier and I think they've shied away from that part of Slaanesh too much, but I appreciate the introduction of other aspects of hedonism like gluttony and fucked up musical instruments made out of people. Really the only bad part is the design of the Daemonettes
Tzeentch just seems like a total afterthought. It's just birds. He's supposed to be the Changer of Ways yet has no interesting mutations on any of his models. He's just all daemons and beastmen with a couple of human models mixed in. GW can't pull any inspiration from old art and designs? Give him some kind of Chaos Forsaken, or pull from Age of Reckoning. Enough with the fucking birds.

At least Tzeentch has some pretty decent looking birds, instead of the turds that are almost the entire Khorne mortals range.
But, yeah, where the fuck are the tzeentch warriors? And I certainly wouldn't mind more outlandish stuff, and a generous helping of body horror mutations.

"Oops all tzaangors" also isn't really a problem in aos where they're one of two non-daemon options and thus a main part of your army instead of the awkward sidekick in 40k tzeentch, which let's be real is more about blue egyptian wizard chaos space marines than it is about tzeenth.

>40kg has an extremely weird hangup around EC models
There was(is?) a notorious schizo shitposter that collected EC, I think that's the reason for the hate

No, there is a schizo that’s obsessed with hating on EC no discernible reason. You’re regurgitating the schizos false propaganda.
>>
>>97520631
Mesoamerican is for Khorne as evidenced by the UW warband. Slaanesh is Persian, and Nurgle is now firmly Celtic. Tzeentch should aim to do something Southeast Asian with all the ornate fire motifs they have.

Egrimm van Horstmann, Galrauch, and Melekh the Changer are three more examples. Named characters are a stupid thing to give Tzeentch in the first place because they have to be static and unchanging. If GW had any sense, they'd be releasing kits for generic characters and letting the players make their own chaos lords and magisters and whatnot.
Also
>glup shitto
Star wars fags should go and stay go. Vilitch was an awful character, but he wasn't whatever you think he was. You could just as easily say Sigvald, Valkia, and Festus were "glue shittos" and you'd be a retard for saying that.

>>97521032
Yes, and they should continue doing that instead of bringing back even more named characters. Ideally, they'd also go back to having unit profiles that you can customize and selling multiple variant sculpts for the same unit... but we both know that's never going to happen.
>>97521011
I agree with you whole-heartedly! It'd be nicer if the rules gave you any incentive to do so.

There is a TOW league starting in my city soon. I am torn between two armies. One of the being Ogre Kingdoms/Ogor Mawtribes.

That info iirc comes mostly from a rumourmonger that has been pretty damn accurate on the general gist of things (like recent whq and nurgle) but also made mistakes before in some specific details and stuff. For example mistaking the new big nurgle daemons for troggoths (trolls) or assuming the new obr archers were more like ushabti than regular boner dudes. So not a 100% set in stone but likely pretty close in the grand scheme of things.
So yeah pretty much anything that's not a big monster is slated to get refreshed. Probably worth mentioning that leadbelchers are apparently getting removed without a refresh (fuck if I know why though they're so unique) so maybe worth picking up a box or two of those while you still can. I wouldn't be surprised to see them show up in tow after a few years anyway, but you never know.
>>
I wonder if faction terrain can be included in warcry. Would probably awkward though.
>>
>>97521372
Depends on the specific one you have in mind I suppose. Like the seraphon pyramid basically already is warcry terrain for example.
>>
>>97521372
I don't think it has rules, but it's not like the Nurgle tree is any different from just a tree
>>
>>97521365
Gotcha, I wish I could see the preview but the league starts before Adepticon so I will have to go Empire. Probably a safer bet long term in case Ogres are never added back fully into tow.
>>
>>97521428
For what it's worth I'm not expecting ogres just yet, the preview will likely be focused on the new Cities of Sigmar stuff that's also been rumoured for a while. Though I guess we don't know, they'd be a nice surprise.
Good luck with your league anon.

>The complaint about Tzaangors in 40k is that they're viewed as belonging in AoS and that they're not space marines in an ostensibly space marine army.
Thousand sons have received 2 new models in 10 years since their original launch in 2016, the same number of new models that World Eaters have received after the initial 2023 launch. Bafflingly Nurgle has even gotten its own sorcerer, world eaters have gotten some of the forge world daemon engines in plastic, emperor's children was only released last year but have probably the most robust and marine-focused army with no meme chaff, the weirdest part for them is the resistance to allowing Fabius Bile in their lists. Thousand Sons are a cobbled together mess of things like tzaangors and a mutalith vortex beast. They can't even use the Horus Heresy Thousand Sons Robots to make up for this. Of all the 40k Deity armies the Thousand Sons have been by far the most forgotten with old models and lack of support in general, with a fucked up psychic phase gimmick.

Slaanesh models will remain eternally cucked while GW insists on trying to market to kids who have no business, money or interest to be getting into something with such adult themes, but that won't stop them from trying.
>>97520178
I don't see why they don't put out more named demons, they did it with ephilim or whatever it's name was. They don't need a separate black library entry for every single named characters, just a paragraph of flavor text in the battle tome is enough and if people show interest then they can write a book for it.

Yes, it has a name, it's probably Ghazuul (spelling may be incorrect due to having listened to it as audiobook). But there was also another dragon that I'm pretty sure was also named, but it's less important.

the lack of forsaken and doom knights is really inexcusable, it's so easy, they're right there and it would give tzeentch other melee options that aren't naked men in bird masks. Really they need to lean much harder on the mutations and demons but GW just has zero ideas for tzeentch units that aren't wizard foothero #4453453

Mesoamerican is a great vibe, but fits seraphon and other factions better. Tzeentch should be egyptian instead. AoS doesn't have an egyptian faction, they could very easily go that direction if they wanted to and it would fit with the existing direction they use in 40k.
>>
>>97520946
I think the aesthetic is supposed to be centered around their role, not any given culture, it's supposed to be vaguely rocky and gemstone like with their angular bumpy cloaks and their mouthless puppet masks. They're a cult of gem cutters and rock idol destoryers and that fits the clothing and tools they have.

It's just a random black library villain, I don't know why it should have one?
In any case I think the design is just an "ordinary" double headed chaos dragon. Forgeworld actually made a generic one of thoae called an emperor dragon, based on the older double headed named chaos dragon. I don't think that model ever made it to AoS unlike say the warpfire dragon (picrel) which had rules in the monstrous arcanum compendium.
Would be a cool thing to bring back for tzeentch if they ever do get around to a big second wave. I'll certainly never turn down more dragons, and the new zombie one seemed to have been well received.

Meh, I don't know. I like thousand sons but doing the same thing in aos feels kind of lame. I'd prefer if they did something different.

no one ever liked Warhammer Fantasy; you were meant to critically enjoy it. The game was made for the older type of wargamer, the one who experiences the game as a general would in the days of old, not some Timmy who just wants World of Warcraft on the table. Wargames are about simulation, which is why fantasy used rank and flank, and sure it did compromise tables and gameplay, but that was how people would fight back then.

Total War is taking that soulful experience and removing all the stoicism out of it by making it "fun" and appealing to zoomers. Fantasy would have been better off dead.

They could easily do an elf based one and a Scäthborn based one.

Elf based one is the current one but swap the Ironscale for a High Gladiatrix and the bow sneks for a unit (or 2*5) SoS or Shadowstalkers.

Scäthborn is bow snakes, spear snakes, Khinerai and Ironscale

I guess that depends on your current army too, and whether you want something similar or want to diversify a little.

>still no khinerai heroine
>>
>>97524085
Hopefully she'll be part of Wave 2 coming with this year's refresh
>>
>>97523935
The general idea is that while 4th's core rules are actually pretty good, the battletomes and warscrolls are utterly lacking in flavour and often require you to jump through hoops for no reason. Lots of spells that just deal 3 mortal wounds instead of anything interesting, once per battle abilities that require a random 4+ roll for 0 reason, etc. There's also quite a few instances where the game goes against the fluff, or what "feels right". Commonly cited example is the mangler squigs having less rend than the cave squig of the loonboss. Just lots of little things like that which add up.
On the flipside it seems like ever since the FEC tome they've started making the battletomes more and more interesting again, the new lumineth rune mechanic seems to have been quite well received here, at least for now. It just sucks for everyone whose battletome came out in the first half of the edition because it's just kind of boring.

Reading FEC, Helsmith and Maggotkin battletomes, I must admit that lore is brilliant.

You really shouldn't be suprised when something in TOW gets updated models, AoS has some stuff from a decade ago but TOW stuff is majority 20+ years old and needs to be updated if they plan on actually making any new sales.
>>
>>97525082

yeah that's kinda weird
>>
>>97525082
>tow is now getting updated chaos warriors, knights and chosen
The leak said that tow armies will be undergoing aos levels of flanderization. And there was rumors of a norsca project that got scrapped and its likely tied to the chaos warrior update. If I had to guess, the warriors will live up to to more of the norsca range from tww but with some adaptations considering that norsca in tww is more uh....kurgan inspired? I think?
>chances are aos will update their warriors and knights again to be properly different
As much as I'd prefer it if AOS got the more Mycenaean armor that fantasy had for its original warriors, I really doubt thats the case. AOS warriors are described as chaos ascendant, while tow warriors are still trying to find some semblance of authority. I wouldnt be surprised if chosen for tow are just regular chaos warriors with more decorations. Kinda like frydal.

>and chances are aos will update their warriors and knights again to be properly different
That's be surprising to me, they're brand new, and this isn't like the wight king or the tomb king herald whete it's a single hero. It'd have to be warriors, knights and chosen at least, not to mention the dozen or so lords and other characters in the same style. No, I think aos chaos warriors are staying right where they are, and rather tow warriors will take a different path. Maybe more norscan-ish like >>97525197 suggests, or maybe harkening back to some of the older, slightly different designs. It'll be weird to have classic chaos in aos and a "new take" in the old world though, that's for sure.
By the way, mycenean? How'd you figure that? Sounds cool but I don't really see it from looking at some of the older metals. There's a few tzeentch heroes that kind of have that look if you squint but that's about it.
>>
>>97525197
>The leak said that tow armies will be undergoing aos levels of flanderization

>That's be surprising to me, they're brand new, and this isn't like the wight king or the tomb king herald whete it's a single hero.
No, it's not like those cases because it's the same case as deathrattle skeleton warriors instead.
the chaos knights aren't actually a new kit, they're the same etb models from the start collecting with a sprue of bits for musician and banner.

and no chaos chosen aren't supposed to get updated in this hypothetical scenario because they already have a distinctly aos aesthetic, with an armour covered in trim and akin the varanguard's.
it would be just warriors and knights.
>>
>>97525648
I keep forgetting about the etb start collecting, what an odd release. You're right that knights are slightly older then, like 2020 or so I wanna say?
Either way, I think the point still stands. It'd be odd for them to redesign kits so new (be it 2020 or 2023) so they can look different from kits they're also designing ...right now. I feel like the skeleton comparison isn't quite fair, that was a slight rework of existing models to make them sturdier, and I think they threw in an extra deathmask for the champion that wasn't there before. New aos warriors and knights (if we take the most conservative approach, I'm not sure I agree that aos chosen are so unique different from the older sculpts to be considered distinct enough) would need a full redesign, from concept art to full modeling etcetera. If tow must have new models, the logical course would simply be to slightly differentiate *those* instead of wasting even more resources on redesigning aos sculpts for no reason. It's a bit weird for aos to end up with the classic stuff, but honestly you could make the case that darkoath look closer to the whfb marauders than the tow ones do, so there's precedent.
On the other hand, plenty of shit gw has done with this whole tow/aos minimal overlap business flies in the face of common sense anyway, so who knows.

Why do you guys think of the largest battle report channels on Youtube ( Tabletop Tactics 254k subs ) chose to have TOW be their second core pillar over AoS? I would assume they are grogs but they also mostly play 40k so that can't be true. Not trying to shitstir legit wondering why they did it.

That art itself isn't old.
That's new art by L J Koh, who only been hired by GW for TOW exclusively, though I'm pretty sure he would prefer to work on HH or 40K pieces.

Oh yeah that is weird. It must be because it is their first TOW upload, but it actually has more views than their 40k batreps. That must be because it was their first TOW video. Do you think AoS is less watchable overall vs TOW? Or do people not watch for other reasons in your opinion?

It is not their first TOW upload

People by and large don't like AoS. I think its fun, but the lore is stupid as fuck (and aos fans need to accept this) and it definitely affects public perception of it, especially with the Total War games being huge successes and TOW coming back

Maybe that's why TT is that big. Because neither of the three are obese and ones a normal looking woman.
>>
>>97526916
Because AoS as a game doesn't really offer anything different to 40k. It's an even less flavorful (LRL is definitely a step in the right direction but it might be too little too late), smaller audience tournament style game. They already capture most of that audience with their 40k content. TOW, for all of its flaws, and it has many, isn't anything like 40k or AoS, for the better and for the worst. It's narrative first and foremost (which also suits the fact that the players at TTT are shit at it and would never be good at it) so their extremely stupid decisions and inability to know the rules won't be such a detriment.
Also, my guess is a few of their whales have really been whining for it, so they are bringing it out for a trial run.

MWG is such a sad story.
They were once the biggest one, full stop.
Now their videos can't even crack 10k.
They use to upload five or six times a fucking week.
Now it's maybe one game, the other maybe two videos are paid only.
They are literally living off their stable of whales, crowd funding 3d print schemes, and the every six months begging video (only Matt though, Dave, is too lazy or proud to beg for the company that pays all his bills while he has done literally nothing for it for the past 8 years)

>>97527171
As others have pointed out, they haven't stopped playing 10th, in fact they started doing it again.
Frankly if they didn't do their demo annual begging videos I assume they would be under already; those sort of things are just desperation (and also a very slimy way to get income; with investors or a bank they would have to PAY THE MONEY BACK, here they just bleed the whales, take the money, and do nothing to better their product or right size their business).
To be fair to MWG, TTT did the same begging, TWICE, to get their building paid for when 'the cost estimate increased' so maybe it's just habit for these channels to take advantage of the para social relationship with the viewers.
Steve over at Mountain Miniatures is 100% this; he has whales paying literally an EXTRA 300 to 400 hundred a month to 'win a single painted miniature.' He is basically paying for his part time workers via the whales, he then pockets all the cash from his subscribers

But it's the second best selling of all mini games.
I do have my own theory, AoS has more actual players, hence why they sell more models, tournament attendance is high etc.
Whereas there are lots of people who like the idea of Fantasy, but won't even buy models or play it, they just engage in battle reports etc

The current battle report 'standard' that you see on channels like Tabletop titans or Mountain Miniatures is a fucking disgrace. You barely see the table, barely see the minis, the game is constantly interrupted to show out some faggot who gave a dollar, the screen is dominated by the two fat people, not the table... And they are too fucking long.
A concise 1hiur, 1 hour twenty minute report I can listen too while painting (looking up to see a nice table and minis when I want a break in painting) is excellent

They do upload plenty of classic handheld cam battle reports. The rub is that they are all behind the member paywall. You can watch top down soulless for free but for the classic enjoyable format you have to pay. Steve claims it’s because the top down is more popular by viewer demand, but I think it’s more because it pushes people into paying for the membership to get enjoyable batreps.

If leaks are to be believed. It's because GW suits didn't believe TOW would sell at all prior to launch. It was originally supposed to launch with Cathay vs Kislev. That was the plan from the outset. Then over years it got whittled away. Even kits that were meant to go to TOW like the entire Sunsteala range were redirected into TOW because of executive decisions.
Then TOW launched and did much better than they expected so they had to scramble to release Cathay and get the other projects up to higher priority. Cathay allegedly sold extremely well and basically now they are scrambling behind the scenes to ramp everything up after spending the 3-4 years prior to launch ramping down.

It will be interesting to see what they will show for Adepticon. Most people believe it will be the new StD for TOW (chaos warriors, knights etc )

I think along these lines too, the player base might even not be much bigger, but there is a fairly huge "hobby focused" crowd connected to AoS.
We do have the best minis, some designs might not be to everyones tastes sure, but over all our line of miniatures is the best looking and most fun to paint.
So I think there is a number of primarily hobbyist buying AoS stuff, painting up armies and only playing once in a while if ever.

The average AoS mini I see painted at any give time, irl or online, usually is better done that the others too, giving more credability to the idea of this being a hobbyist focused setting atm,
