NTaW Posted February 15, 2020 Share Posted February 15, 2020 (edited) The video from a while back that had a bunch of flashes of a new big Ork with obvious nods to the current Ghaz model sort of confirmed a new Ghazghkull was inbound, no? It makes sense to put it out with Saga of the Beast but I doubt they'd pull the old one. Probably put it on last chance to buy once the new one goes on preorder. Ghaz is still on the Canadian site.

WrathOfTheLion Posted February 16, 2020 Share Posted February 16, 2020 (edited) Ragnar is definitely gone from the US site and Ghaz from the UK site. Don't know if there's anything to read definitively out of it for the SW side until we see more, but perhaps they're set to be unlisted when their stock runs out.

Guest Triszin Posted February 16, 2020 Share Posted February 16, 2020 I'm guessing we'll get a tease/reveal tomorrow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zephaniah Adriyen Posted February 16, 2020 Share Posted February 16, 2020 (edited) I mean... they pulled Ragnar and Ghaz from some sites, we know Ghaz is coming and Wolves are fighting him. It's a reasonable assumption that Ragnar's getting Primarized - which we knew was a likely thing anyway, because he's The Space Wolf Charactertm. Just in time for me building some Wolves. Edit: I flipped through a majority of the regions for both Ghaz's search and Ragnar's (as in, I typed in "ghazghkull" and "ragnar blackmane" into the search bar), and they're as follows:Ghaz is pulled everywhere but North America and, like, Australia as far as I can tell. Sue me, my computer's slow and I flipped through all of them in order down to the Netherlands, plus I saw U.S. has him still because that's where I live. Ragnar seems to be pulled in the U.S. and Canada only at the moment, though if they're dropping him in favor of an update, it'd stand to reason they'll pull him everywhere like the Ork. Think old Ghaz will be common on the secondary market after the new one drops? If I start an Ork army, I kinda wanna pick one up for use as a Warboss in Mega Armor, like Dawn of War uses him as. I dunno, he just seems like a classic. Edited February 16, 2020 by Zephaniah Adriyen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
helterskelter Posted February 16, 2020 Share Posted February 16, 2020 Oh, on ghaz size... I think he will be as tall as the new shadow sun standing on her base. Just judging off of skull scaling on her base. Which would mean the dudes a monster in size 80-100mm base (can't remember what was said) and near redemptor size Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zephaniah Adriyen Posted February 16, 2020 Share Posted February 16, 2020 Nothing of note for today's pre-orders. Maybe next week? I think it's pretty clear they're gonna drop an Embiggened Ragnar and Embiggerened Ghazghkull very soon. painting.for.my.sanity 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeadFingers Posted February 16, 2020 Share Posted February 16, 2020 (edited) Well, in any case, it's up now, and no Ghaz or Ragnar in sight. Kinda expected since if they announced the preorder now they'd hit shelves before March, and that'd be a bit weird considering the monthly nature of Psychic Awakening. But hey, classic Yarrick and a Ghaz "mention", so I expect it won't take long for them to start hyping up Saga of the Beast.

WrathOfTheLion Posted February 16, 2020 Share Posted February 16, 2020 I would not expect preorders to go up for at least another week or two, possibly more for a March release. If they do a box set, then perhaps there will be a few weeks of previews as there was for the Eldar box. Will be interesting to see if great companies get something rules wise.

Karhedron Posted February 17, 2020 Share Posted February 17, 2020 Will be interesting to see if great companies get something rules wise. My suspicion is that they will not. DAs got nothing for successor chapters and even Flesh Tearers only get support because they have an actual named character. I suspect we will continue to have to represent different GCs using stratagems, Warlord Traits and just unit selection. E.g. if you want to run Iron Wolves, just buy plenty of vehicles and mech-up.

But great companies and successor chapters are much different things. Event the tempestus scions, being a subfaction by themselves previously got own subfactions rules. Wolves had rules for great companies last edition. Also, wolves have subfaction specific characters: Grimnar, Ragnar, Krom and Harald are leaders of different great companies.

Shinespider Posted February 17, 2020 Share Posted February 17, 2020 (edited) Add TSons to the list of "Subfaction that now has SubSubfaction rules." Granted, the Cults don't *exactly* follow the typical subfaction rules model, but they're close. Edited February 17, 2020 by Shinespider Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Shepherd Posted February 17, 2020 Share Posted February 17, 2020 Great company rules would be awesome let alone build your own ones Tricky part could be integrating named characters though as we have so many and a lot are in Logan Grimnar's company I think theres a chance they could do something along the lines of army wide warlord traits Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kaldoth Posted February 19, 2020 Share Posted February 19, 2020 Well in the latest teaser on the 40k Facebook page they released a map of all the active WAAAAAGHs in the galaxy. More interesting though is the symbol in the bottom left of the map next to a skull marker that says "Possible Sightings of The Beast" :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeadFingers Posted February 19, 2020 Share Posted February 19, 2020 Is it any different from the map in the Ork Codex? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Triszin Posted February 19, 2020 Share Posted February 19, 2020 It looks like the waahhs are bigger, if I remember correctly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeadFingers Posted February 19, 2020 Share Posted February 19, 2020 (edited) I did a thing. It's a bit hard to see the difference between the two, but it's true that some of the Waaghs have moved and/or expanded. Most noticeably, Wazdakka's southern side is moving towards Rynn's World, the Waaghs around the Ghoul Stars are going north, and a couple of new minor Waaghs have appeared here and there. Ghaz/Beast sightings are still the same as the Codex. Edited February 19, 2020 by DeadFingers Ubiquitous1984 and PeteySödes 2 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
