-They are going to have an oriental look, fu manchu beards, very ming the merciless look.
-They are going to have hobgoblin servant called "Gnoblars".
-Brian Nelson is designing the range.
DWARFS
-Dwarf Slayers are getting their own army list in White Dwarf

-they are getting new and special wra machines which are still top secret
STORM OF CHAOS
-Storm of Chaos is a new campaign starting next summer
-Archaon beseiges Middenheim
-Campaign will determine if Middenheim remain in Empire or falls to Chaos
-Everything in Warhammer is being geared towards this new and biggest Chaos incursion.

-If Archaon wins campaign and kills this 3rd champion of light he will become the 5th Chaos God.
-4 Main armies involved in Storm of Chaos is Chaos, Empire, Dwarfs and "Black Orcs?" Brets, High and Wood Elves, Kislev, Ogres, VCs and Lizardmen will all have minor parts.
CHAOS DWARFS
-getting a white dwarf army list in 2004
-getting their own army bookin late 2005
-will be interchangeable with Chaos armies.
- will be referred to in Machines of Chaos army book
-design is undetermined as of yet
WOOD ELVES
-replaced by Ogre Kingdoms
- pushed back to Spring of 2005!
IN GENERAL
-Warhammer is becoming darker more gothic
-Bitz catalogue is scheduled for release in summer 2004
-working on new plastic fortress, with interchangeable pieces for each race
-GW is making their own army builder CD and website
-Warhmmer online-unbelievable- due in late 2004
-something about them making an "Allies Book" that will include Tileans, Estalians and new Dogs of War armies.
Brettonians:
4 plastic boxed sets include Knights (which will make both Errant and Realm knights), Men-at-arms, Bowmen, and Pegasus Knights
two hybrid sets (metal/plastic) for Questing and Grail knights
Bretonnians will be much darker in feel, to fit into the grim nature of Warhammer fantasy
Bowmen sprue will come with palisades, a brazier, and a scrappy dog
Transfers are designed to make heraldry easier, and heraldry will become more important (I believe that some basic heraldry will help indicate knightly virtues)
Trebuchet will include a column being chipped for stone, and a peasant boy resting on the wheelbarrow.
Brets will tie in as Empire allies in War against Chaos, and have stronger connections to the Elves.
Ogre Kingdoms
Plastic Ogres, done (at least right now) by Brian Nelson (wooo-hooo!)
Ogre Kingdoms are located to the east, past the mountain passes, so to get to Cathay, you must pass through the realms of the Ogres and Chaos Dwarfs.
Ogres will have an Oriental feel, with Mongol-like features
Entire army of "Big Guys" served by Gnoblars (smaller than goblins, but not, apparently, units unto themselves, but modeled on the bases of the Ogres.
Plastic Giant, and Ogres carrying and using Cannons.
Chaos Dwarfs
There WILL be a Chaos Dwarf army book
Chaos Dwarfs "really should' have had an entry in the Chaos army book, and will be part of the Chaos Army (so other Chaos armies can take them as rare and special slots)
Chaos will get the Hell-cannon, which is a CD invention, and will "preview" the new look of the Chaos Dwarfs, which hasn't been settled yet.
There will almost certainly be a WD preview list for Chaos Dwarfs, as they like how this has allowed feedback from gamers.
Wood Elves
Wood Elves have been pushed back due to the Chaos campaign and their excitement about the Ogre Kingdoms project.
Wood Elves should look more feral/bestial and will more directly conflict with the beastmen.
Chaos and Evil in general
Be'lakor (the Harbinger) will get a new Demon Prince model and will be directly competing with Archaon
Brian Nelson and Jes Godwin are working on new Chaos Warrior plastics to complete the line (looking more like the Chaos Knight metals).
I asked about the possibility of expanded rules for "urban" warfare in Fantasy, since the Empire was under seige. This will be explored in the Warhammer General's Guidebook, with more rules and scenarios, as well as in the Storm of Chaos book. Evidently, Archaon will force the Skaven to mutate some units of Marauders, who will be able to scale walls and the like.
One of the armies revisited with a new list in the Storm of Chaos Book will be the Orcs, with a special emphasis on Black Orcs.
Empire and Forces of Good
Valken is the FIRST champion of Light model. There will be two more (who may or may not also be Valken, as he progresses in influence).
Kislev will appear in Storm of Chaos/White Dwarf/Warhammer Chronicles/Annual with a new army list with the existing Winged Lancers and Horse Archers, as well as the Gryphon Legions and new foot troops (Boyars and Kossars, I believe) as well as Boris Todbringer on a monstrous Polar Bear.
Chaos incursions will also result in a Dwarf Slayer army in Storm of Chaos, with new models/weapons, such as the Axe-thrower, and axes on chains.
Campaign will function largely as the EOT campaign, with no massive changes, but battles will affect the Old World, and also help to determine what direction events move in the future.
