Dark elves rumours

      Dark elves rumours

      Hallo!

      Diese Infos sind von einem Typen auf Facebook und Druchii.net

      Just had this pop on my facebook feed (translation is clearly garbage so I'll try to use my DE experience :P)

      October 4
      September 27th (pre-orders)
      - This fits the schedule, pre-orders open last saturday of September, release first Saturday of October (even though the dates are Fridays)

      And the models who claim to have seen flying are:

      - Box Hydra / Kar Karond Beast (depths flying) [Multikit to build two types of hydration and the Beast
      We've been hearing rumors of a new monster since they first cropped up. For me it looks like we're getting a multi-kit box with the following option:
      Hydra - looks like multiple hydra options (maybe back to 6th ed bonus hydra rules? those were fun)
      Sea Drake - Why the hell not? "Depths flying" sounds to me like it will have both Sea Creature and Flying rules.

      - Box of 10 Witch Elves / Multikit unique troop
      Witch Elves and a new kit? unique troop? I don't know about this. It seems like the rumor of multikit harpy/witch elves might be true.

      - Box 10 Executioners / Black Guard Multikit
      Ugh, it seems a thing now... these two units are so different in terms of armor I don't know what to think about new box. I'm glad I have enough old ones.

      - Safety Cauldron of Blood / Altar ...
      This one I've already heard about and my theory is that this will be the rumored oversized base unit (because I don't think they will make Hydra that big but it could be). Huge Cauldron of Blood and and option to build it as a statue of khaine that has different passive benefits (cauldron for defensive, statue for offensive)

      - Blister Priestess of Khaine
      Death Hag hero

      - Blister Murderer (Shadowblade)
      New Shadowblade (obviously)

      - Blister Dark Fleet Admiral
      Proper Corsair hero (so it's not just Lokhir)

      - King of the Executioners Blister
      And long awaited execs hero to join them instead of death hags.

      Rules:
      - Dark Magic up characteristics oriented characters, transformations and recovery spells 5th edition.
      I don't remember 5th edition Dark Magic spells but I remember they were deadly and powerful (Arnizipal's Black Horror chief amongst them so we can expect a nice boost to our magic)

      - Dagger of sacrifices there and synergy with the Cauldron of Blood in units (Skaven bell type.) (It is said that only power dice 4 + and one per phase)
      Already heard this one. Kill a model for a new PD on 4+... Once per phase would mean it better stay cheap.

      - Fleet Admiral dark. A kind of hero who can join LV apparently endowments and improve shooting skills from other units. (Becomes his cousin sea helmet AE)
      I figured AE is HE in whatever language the original was... LV I can't figure out.

      - The Vergudos oriented creatures with more than one wound and mean strengths.
      Verdugos? What language is this, does anyone know? I like the sound of more than one wound. MI? MC?

      - Revamp of Murderers and more important. Cheaper and the terror of the enemy characters.
      Assassins finally able to do what Assassins are made for? That would be awesome.

      - The whole army is oriented based damage poisons, multiple wounds and attacks (lethal blows) and ...
      Mmmm more poison :D I like the idea of Dark Elves getting more destructive, it fits my perception of each of the elven races strengths. DE - Offense, HE - Defense, WE - Guerrilla. Multi wounds attacks... Execs used to do D3 wounds instead of KB a while back... I'd like that (they'd slaughter monstrous units)

      - Malekith more powerful than Teclis.
      I'll believe it when I see it. He was never more powerful than Teclis, not even in 5th

      - Monster of the deep-Kar Karond more powerful than the Hydra
      Sea Drake? Well, if it's flying it already puts it above the Hydra, if it's at least as resilient it will be awesome. Monster Mash here I come!

      - The weight of the book lies Karond units Kar, Hag Graef and Clar Karond
      So Monsters+Temple of Khaine+Corsairs as a focus.

      The rumor Cruddace dark book makes is very vague and is taken from faeit 212 and heard that the author of the book is the same as AE
      ??? Only think I can figure out from this sentence is that the author is same as HE book (Matt Ward was it?)

      Neue Gerüchte von "40k Radio"


      NEW RUMORS for Warhammer Fantasy! My "source" has sent me pictures of the new Dark Elf release. The Dark Elves will be out in October with a slew of new models:

      1) NEW Plastic Dark Elf Warrior Box(Makes Spearmen, swordsmen, & crossbowmen)
      2) NEW PLastic Dark Riders/Warlocks
      3) NEW Plastic Blackguard/Executioners
      4) NEW Plastic Coldone Chariot/Scroungerunner(Pulled by horses)
      5) NEW Plastic Cauldron of Blood/Blood Throne(This model is AMAZING)
      6) NEW Plastic Hydra/Kraken
      7) NEW Plastic Witch Elf box

      This will be a huge release and the Dark Elves will be the best looking Fantasy army, IMHO. These models are breathe taking and Dark Elf fans will have their minds blown!
      Punkt 1 verwundert mich, da bis dato GW die Plastikkernboxen immer gleich gelassen haben (obwohl Änderungen bei manchen nicht geschadet hätten!).

      Ich bin sehr gespannt auf dieses Release!

      Dürfte wohl eine dunkle Version der Hochelfen werden. Spezial-SW is ansich ja cool, wenns nicht so lächerlich ist wie bei den KdC, sondern im Stil der HE. Obligatorischer Monster-Multipack. Dazu Helden aus den Elite-Einheiten wie bei den HE. Eh ganz cool.

      Neue LKav? Oder was sind Warlocks?

      Dass Speerträger, Henker, Garde und Hexen neu werden, kann ich mir beim besten Willen nicht vorstellen. Wär aber schön, dann werden die De wirklich die schönste Armee.
      Konstanz ist immer ein Thema. Manchmal funktioniert sie, manchmal nicht.
      Lets do quick roundup
      1) NEW Plastic Dark Elf Warrior Box(Makes Spearmen, swordsmen, & crossbowmen)
      The new Warriors look quite different to me. But then again I am a big geek that notices stuff like that. They have cloaks that come down their back and all the helmets don't cover the eyes any more.
      The cloaks hang down from underneath the shoulder armor and cover the back of the chain mail. It definitely is new for them but it looks really cool. The Druchii warriors also have shoulder armor. It makes them look simply awesome. The skull embossed on their shields looks great too.
      The Warriors, Black Guard, and Dark Riders all have cloaks. None of them appear to have face coverings.
      It does not appear that any of the banners have designs sculpted onto them. The pictures we have of the warriors show 2 regiments, one armed with swords and shields and one armed with spears and shield. Our source tell us that they will make crossbows but we don't have a picture of them.
      2) NEW PLastic Dark Riders/Warlocks
      Warlocks appear to have one hand weapon
      The warlocks are bare chested, and the weapons look mundane...aka not glowing. They look like large jagged daggers. They are held in reverse grips which looks pretty slick. The warlock champions eyes are glowing which IMO hints at some magical abilities.
      The Warriors, Black Guard, and Dark Riders all have cloaks. None of them appear to have face coverings.
      The Dark Riders are very cool looking. Sleek looking horses with only a bit of armor. All of the Riders are hunched over in the saddle to give the illusion of speeding fast cav. The helmets appear to be open faced and they are armed with spears in the picture I have, once again that doesn't mean they wont get crossbows (in the pictures we have they are in the back ground behind the Warlocks).
      There does not appear to be a command group for the Warlocks, only a unit champion.
      3) NEW Plastic Blackguard/Executioners
      The Warriors, Black Guard, and Dark Riders all have cloaks. None of them appear to have face coverings. The Executioners appear to have skull faced helms. The theme to me appears to be a more sinister version of their High Elf bretheren. The plate armor has very spiked and jagged edges. The style will still fit well with the Shades and Reaper but next to these new models they will look very dated.
      -Black Guard look very stalwart with large halberds and high helms with 3 spikes on each side with a flowing plume on top. Their armor is black trimmed in gold and they have dark purple cloaks. The unit champion is holding a sword by the hilt with the blade planted in the ground. Musician is a drummer.
      -The executioners have what look like skull helms, and their armor is a brighter silver than the Black Guard. Their tunics are red in color and the Draiches are all held on the left hand side of their bodies (their left our right). They look very cool ranked up.
      The Executioner champ is armed with an axe and is holding the decapitated head of a High Elf. Pretty dang cool.

      4) NEW Plastic Coldone Chariot/Scroungerunner(Pulled by horses)
      The new chariot crew is armed with spears and what looks to be a large crossbow or bolt thrower on the chariot.
      For the Scroungerunner charoit the crew look similar to Corsairs. The passenger shooting the crossbow/boltthrower has what appears to be a sea dragon cloak on. There are reins but they look like just normal black leather. The horses look awesome and angry. Both are black in color with red eyes. The chariot only has one wheel that is centered on the back part. Sounds stupid, looks cool. And as usual nasty spikes and blades al
      And yes the Cold Ones on the chariot match the current Cold One Knights.

      5) NEW Plastic Cauldron of Blood/Blood Throne(This model is AMAZING)
      The Cauldron of Blood/Blood Throne look very cool. If you are a fan of the newer larger models GW has been putting out for WHFB you will really dig it. It is a bit toned down compared to the Empire Celestial Hurricanum/Luminark of Hysh and has blades and hooks on it to make it very sinister and Dark Elf.
      The Cauldron of Blood/Blood Throne are on a bigger base than the chariot base.
      Yes the Cauldron and the Blood throne both have 6 wheels. They are on the same chassis, just with different stuff on the altar. I just noticed that the Witch Elves on Blood Throne have metal masks that cover the front of their face with the exception of their chin and mouth area and of course their eyes.
      Ok and now to answer the Medusa question: She has the lower body of a snake and it appears there are other snakes on her base. The right side of her torso is bare, including her breast. In her right hand she is holding a spear. She has armor over her left breast and has a nasty looking clawed gauntlet on her hand. Her mouth is agape and she has snakes for hair. There is also a significant amount of blood on the model.

      6) NEW Plastic Hydra/Kraken
      About Hydra:It looks bigger and beefier.
      Yes the Hydra does have 2 handlers.
      -The Kraken has 5 heads/fanged maws. The have spines and scales with smooth neck and belly flesh. Scales are painted a Dark Grey with the softer flesh painted blue. Looks awesome.
      The Kraken doesn't have tentacles, it has four legs with webbed appendages ending in claws and it also has a tail.
      Yes the Kraken has multiple heads. From the pic it looks like there is one main head with eyes and the other four necks end with fanged maws. Very cool looking. It may sound stupid to people as it is walking but wait until the picture comes out before passing judgement.
      You have to clear your head of any preconceived notions of what a Kraken is or looks like. Because lets face it, an 8 legged octopus creature flopping around on land would just not look right. It has 4 limbs that end in webbed feet with claws on them. It also has 5 heads. The main head has beady little eyes right above the mouth. The lower jaw on the main head extends kind of like an octopus tentacle but with teeth on it. The other heads end in an mouth with teeth and 4 claws around the head that look to facilitate grabbing their next meal.

      7) NEW Plastic Witch Elf box
      -The pictures we have of the Witch Elves has them with two hand weapons.
      The witches are also sporting thigh high boots and are very dynamic with their poses. I wonder how much of a pain in the butt it will be to get them to rank up.
      The Witch Elves look great. No mowhawks or anything like that. Long flowing hair, thigh high black boots and red loincloths and for lack of a better terms bras. They appear to have open mouths so lord only knows what they are saying before they come in and hack my poor High Elves to bits.
      There appears to be a command group for the Witch Elves.

      Crone Hellebron?
      -Apparently one of the pics we have is Crone Hellebron. She is a little more armored up than a normal WE. She has a sword and a small blade (I am thinking Deathsword and Parrying Blade). She definitely has the big hair like in her artwork in the current army book.She looks young like a regular WE. She has a a bit more clothing, but not much. She has a gold mask covering her face that extends upwards in a crown like fashion. Both arms are raised towards the sky.

      Klingt spannend, scheint ein wirkliches großes Up-date zu werden (was mich ein wenig wundert!).

      Fahrende KM bekommt nun wohl jedes Volk, bleibt abzuwarten ob die Speerschleuder am Streitwagen auch nur S5 hat.

      Bin sehr gespannt auf die neuen Modelle! Auch auf die Punktekosten der großen Monster.

      Also kommt echt alles, hätte ich mir nicht gedach! Die Preise für Kessel und Kraken sind echt heftig. Obwohl ich etwa 4500 Punkte DE Zuhause habe, werde ich wohl trotzdem tief in die Tasche greifen müssen, vorausgesetzt allerdings der Kraken taugt was. Die Schlächterbestie und der Troglodings sind da ja eher abschreckende (aber geldsparende) Beispiele.

      Ja für 10 Figuren sehr heftig, zum Glück habe ich die ja schon.

      Steht der Kessel dann auch am riesigen Base? Das wäre irgendwie ein Sch....

      I spoke to a GW manager today and he said he wont know anything about the boxes officially until next week, BUT HE HAS SEEN THE DARK ELF ARMY BOOK COVER. So this is happening for sure at least. I know that's no surprise to us, but it was nice to get a confirmation.
      He says the cover is very similar to the High Elf army book cover, except with a Dark Elf there instead. I didnt press him on it as to be honest, it's hardly relevant at this stage, but we know for sure this is all coming in October for sure

      Some more rule rumours
      Warlocks are a casting unit Ala pink horrors. Spells are leadership hex and 2d6 s5 MM. Fixed level 2 with +1 to cast with every rank. Apparently they have 4+ ward.
      New type of witch hag char which has an item to give +1 attack to unit and +2 if the unit has frenzy.
      Lore attribute is target takes 2d6 s1 AP hits if roll doubles while casting and 3d6 if triples are rolled.



      Quote:
      Kraken has 4 s7 attacks and if all hit, additional d6 s7 attacks.
      Scourgerunner has s7 bolt thrower with no armor saves (fluff - they use this to hunt monsters).
      Signature spell boosts strength by 1 and adds d3 power dice.
      And someone mentioned army wide ASF.






      This is f..king awesome!!! 8) 8)

      Quote:
      so it's clear now, that DE will be released during two months. October we will have warrior, witch elves, blood throne, Kharibdyss (dont know what is it), and a plastic shadowblade.
      as we can see GW has put bg, chariot and dark riders to next month along with innocence(the 40K table game,i'm 95% certain that it will be in November). for good reason we can split our money to two months. that's really kind.
      for the price:
      shadowblade, £12
      warrior,£20
      witch,£35
      throne,£45
      kha…balabalabala,£40

      von warseer
      The sisters of slaughter are rares: enemies is base contact with them must re-roll successful leadership tests.
      Hydras are specials can upgrade to get a strength 4 breath attack, no regen but can regrow heads (recover lost wounds) just like the slann can with his discipline.
      The kraken thing has a special ability that triggers when all 5 of its attacks hits ( gets an extra attack that inflicts additional hits) has a scaly skin save. Both use the monster and handler rules.
      They have 2 signature spells just like high magic. One of the spells goes off on a 8+ and grants a unit +1 strength and then you gain D3 power dice but if you gain 3 power dice this way the wizard suffers a wound with no saves allowed.
      The army has always strikes first.
      Murderous Prowless: models with this rule re roll 1s when rolling to wound.
      Wizards casting Dark Magic add plus 1 to their casting attempts.
      That is all I remember from what my source told me. Hope it helps.

      I had the sisters rule mixed up with the kraken monster. They take away rank bonuses
