    I miss the more human factions of warhammer fantasy. It felt more grounded and realistic than age of sigmar and was a nice tonal difference to 40k. Now age of sigmar and 40k are like the same thing. Age if sigmar seems like it's just built around what looks cool and works for the table top. Fantasy felt like an actual functional world.

Then dwarfs stagnated for thousands of years with the same way warhammer 40k tech is considered too sacred to improve on and humans slowly but surely got to get guns of their own later. So, if anything, dwarven guns should be more powerful and numerous if you come back a thousand years back it time.

    My current theory of the old world returning is that it is a video game like "Age of Sigmar champions". The release date being 3-4 years or more is the same as a full game dev cycle. The recent info of the world map takes ques from the Total war game. And the concept art shown can both apply to models in a video game as well.
