    Actually whoever signed off on this give them a raise, this was probably the single best possible marketing decision you could have made for this game and they have their pulse on your market. I'm not even kidding dropping a super thematic battle report to show off the system before release is exactly what THIS community would get wound up by and something you've never done before. Absolutely fantastic.

      Are Lizardmen not getting a PDF at launch? And then probably an official release like this next edition I'd guess in like 3 years.
      The initial launch has 9 factions in it, which will probably release over the next 3 years bit-by-bit. Then 2.0 will come out and do the next wave of releases if it's successful.
      But yeah, like the other guy said, buy Lizardmen and rank them up on squares. That's why I intend to do.

Those other factions are not being supported. They will have rulesets for free pdf download but will not be tournament legal. I think that's a shame and I hope they change their mind in the future.

I don’t have much of a tabletop community around so have been focusing on the games and books.

    Finally had time to watch the full video. This to me symbolizes the greatest aspects of WFB: visually beautiful with great lumbering units, lots of desperate maneuvering, wild back and forth as both sides drag the advantage back to them, and a climactic centrepiece slugfest in the middle. Warhammer Fantasy, the Old World, whatever you call it - this is what got me into the hobby in 1995 and it's genuinely quite powerful to see it officially supported (I won't say 'back' per se because it never really went away) again.

    I grew up in Poland in the 90's. It was right after the iron courtain fell. But, surprisingly, Games Workshop products were available quite quickly. My friend from school introduced me to the Wahammer Fantasy battle and I immediately fell in love with Orcs and Goblins. The only problem was the prices: it was way to expensive for polish teenager. I remeber that even buing a 3 pieces blister of Savage Orcs was a quite an event. Then few years down the road I had a job and I was able to buy myself models for Empire and Lizardmen. I was playing hard with my collagues from my local "Warhammer Club" but suddenly the system droped dead... Age of Sigmar was not for me, to say at least... I hid my miniatures in the closet for few, long years... Now I'm 40, I have two small kids and recently discovered that my old beloved Warhammer retuns.... You guys don't even know what a pleasure watching this report gave me... how many memories it brought back. I'm over the moon... I can't wait to introduce this game to my kids (I think they gonna love the "dinosaur army";) Cheers!
