I don't know. i just don't want copy paste special rules of a normal chaoslord. 

They have already said that he has a unique rule but they didn't detail exactly what it does.

I think it's just that there are new models but I keep coming back to these guys. lol

that are pretty small for me so painting any sort of good standard will be difficult I think but the models look cool. they did a good job overall

I also hope he can get infiltrate or scout when he joins a unit or he'll hurt his troops a little. 

Remember when GW did that for Death Guard in 8th and those units lacked the extra stats that would've been present for a Nurgle unit? Good times.

i'm guessing not too many influencers have gotten the dex yet as tabletop tactics just came out with a video trying to guess what will happen with the demons in the codex.

1. Their podcasts are usually a week or two behind recordings wise - they put one up after Christmas with them speculating whether Fulgrim would be shown off at Christmas (he was).

 

2. Even if they knew, they'd be under an NDA.

Stuff usually comes put around the time they go up for pre-order.
So it's possible they've pre-recorded their videos already and just can't put them out yet.

Things don’t really get set in motion until gw announce on their Sunday preview that the ec box will be on pre order the weekend after 

 

cause after that people may get boxes early and leak it and even if they don’t, gw do community posts most days that week showing rules

And typically the review embargos are lifted on the day of the pre-order.

Well I’ve heard apparently that pre order announcements won’t be this weekend as some might’ve hoped including me , but I hope it’s wrong

Influencers are already rumoured to have the box (they normally get two-three week lead up time to make sure things are ready for pre-order day)

Yeah a fair amount of people probably have their hands on it , but they won’t show anything until gw put it on pre order, so we just have to wait till gw says go which we have no idea when that will be

I get being eager for this, but I’d advise against too much impatience, as that just leads to frustration and feeling bad - we know it’s going to come around eventually and (probably) sooner rather than later. But since we have absolutely no way of impacting GW’s release schedule, it’s probably best to just concentrate on having fun with something else until it goes up for preorder. Me, I’m painting up my second set of enemies for Blackstone Fortress and trying to get some other games in while I wait. I am guessing most of you probably have an unpainted mini or two lying around - maybe even something you’ll eventually be able to use in your EC army

Although I hope I'm wrong I'm going to guess the first of second week of March as that would be around the same timeframe as the guard reveal to guard release.

Sadly I’m stuck in warhammer purgatory right now haha , where I’ve built everything in preparation for the release but I can’t paint anything cause I’m waiting for tutorials or paint recipes for box art style so not much I can do right now haha
