Well, not sure if these have been said before, but had a chat with my local GW manager and he's been spot on in the past.

KOTBK are going to be about £40 for the box set, apparantly the horses are very much like Archaons.

No new Zombies - at least they are not scheduled for the first 6 months of 2008.

Corpse cart can be used as a mount for a necromancer!

Like the idea of the corpse cart as a mount for a necromancer...

I've just thought of something potentially bad about the new skeletons... if they are made in the same way as the Empire plastics (ie, torso and legs together) they will be far less useful to use as random skeletons lying around elsewhere; one of the things I love about the current set is the potential number of spare parts, and I'd hate to lose that...
 
Well remember they'll still be available as TK skellies, and mine will be going on eBay soon!

I'm all for conjoined torso and legs. Having them separate on the current ones seems like an odd choice, especially since i glued all of them on straight anyway.

I'm glad about no new zombies for now - i've got 40 odd converted ones at home mid way through painting. And i'm tempted to buy another 40.

You mean on 40mm bases?

Always cool with new rumours. I can't remember how small the Cart will be (Warseer is down) but wont it be a little crowded? There already is a driver.

erm, can't you just REMOVE that driver and replace him by a necro?:lol:
on second view those skeletons ar NIZE!
 
IIRC the figure on the Cart is a necromancer, it´s not a mount for one taken seperately from the character selection. It is also taken as core, but does not use up a core slot.... going by the rumours that is.

Start buying the current boxes then.:)

Must admit forgot to ask about the size of the bases, he was more interested in telling me the stats (which have been said elsewhere, basically same as knights of khorne with a lance, and points wise about the same). Think he meant proper size, with lots of barding and armour etc.

It's of course regretable to lose all those nice excess bits, but I should think that it would be reasonably easy to cut up the new skellies to make broken bodies.

Just had to post this, made me chuckle. Its off the underempire (skaven)

Warlord Bloodfang: "Female Vampire... looks fine. Could it be Neferata, queen of the Lahmian vampires? "

This poor bloke has obviously never heard that Neferata is meant to be one of the most beautiful woman in the warhammer world. Not the ugly witch this model is. Dont get started on the beast within on Neferata though, shes the oldest of the vampires I think she could control it.
 
Sid, those pics have already been posted about a couple of pages back :P
and i agree Dark Templar, Neferata being ugly would make no sense at all with the myriad of references of her being one of the most beautiful women in the world :lol: that made me laugh as well

Maybe she had a bad night on the beer?

Just a thought: Perhaps we should assemby all the pics that's been found so far to the rumour-roundup?
 
No it isn't :)

*runs off from the Vampministrator*

Anyway, would it be possible? To add the different photos to the rumour-roundup?
 
Actually they are not loading up here anymore either. Strange.

These were the actual links from which I got the pics.

It would seem they have been removed from the database, for some reason.
