If you Google “Warhammer Community gnawholes lore” their 2019 article briefly mentions a clan that completely vanished from reality in Aqshy. In the recent campaign book freeguilders have noticed ethereal rat shapes scurrying through ruins. So that long lost clan might be returning having been warped into daemons by their time in the void.
If you look up “Gnawholes 101” on the Warhammer Community there’s a 2019 lore bit of a Great Clans known as Shrykt that vanished in Aqshy through a hole in reality. Recent Dawner book mentions ethereal rat shapes scurrying through ruins so maybe their time in the void turned them into daemons?
I just want Clan Moulder and Clan Skryrer Verminlords and maybe a rules for Skaven Chaos Spawns. Don't even need extra kits, the 2 Spawn kit + all leftover Skaven bits is all I need.
You know what mate, your videos never fail to impress. Well researched, well written, rich in detail and knowledge. No one presents these leaks in the same way. To delve into the narrative for real world implications seems to be something only you do. It's very much appreciated 😊
Jumping the gun here, but what do you think the first range refresh/new army of AOS will be (after Skaven)? I think an Orgres refresh can't be far off due to the age of the models. Beasts are rumoured to be going, but they'll be first in line if they don't go. I've heard a few bits about Chaos Dwarves coming back.
Deffinitely agree Ogres feel like they’ll be refreshed soon - they could do with it. But yeah, plenty of expectations for Chaos Dwarves, Umbraneth (Malerion’s Dark Elves) and others in the pipeline. 😄
@@TabletopTom Hopefully Ogres will be early ish 2025? Hopefully a similar timeframe to Dark Angels/Kroot in 40k. I think Chaos Dwarves will sell well. An exciting time for AOS
Hopefully you're wrong, My thoughts are that clan eshin need models more than the others. Night runners and gutter runners are terrible. We have one unit not one single named unit, out of skitterpaws. I guess maybe he could get some rules added to him
Skaven are the funniest chaos faction to include in a starter box. Chaos is next on the wheel of enemies for Stormcast to fight. Super excited for 4th edition and skaven deserve a lot of love.
Awesome video! I will buy the 4th edition box if it’s Stormcast and Skaven, I hope the Skaven get new stormvermin and giant rats besides the war machines. And the Stormcast to get an awesome 3 man cavalry unit, and sword and shield Stormcast, or axe and shield!
Will GW make a really cool animated video trailer for the New Edition? This is absolutely necessary. There were rumors that GW was somehow in contact with the studio that once made the intro for Down of War 1.
Excellent video, I think you’re spot on with the direction of Skaven as the villains of AoS 4. I agree Skryre will be getting the first love with new units. I just hope all the other clans also feel the love from GW, they all need it! My worry is we will see some much loved units cut from the roster and no longer fieldable in AoS. Just wondering if I shouldn’t plunder some of the older models while they are still available?
I have made enough skaven to know how this could look when bilt. This model is 4 skaven pushing the gun as an engineer fires it. As for the big wheel, I suspect that it will go in between the 4 pushing though it could esaly be on to one side.
I really hope the Skaven can get some new flavour for AOS. I think they're cool, but they don't fit in AoS with the WWI aestetic and they still feel ripped from Old World just like Cities if Sigmar did before their recent refresh.
Let the bell scream-scream. Seriously though I'm a Skaven player and I was looking into it last year and it turns out some of my models can legally drink (at least in Canada) so I might have to share a pint with my plague monks if this doesn't all turn out fake. (I want to believe)
I want new gutter runners and night runners we are wondering if sigmar lied about the security of azure what if their is a massive skaven invasion through naw holes.
skaven are close to my heart, since they where the first army I see from warhammer, always had a thing for clan sklye, so yeah looking forward for mad science, war crime and mass destruction, so... HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA
Of course, once the model range drops, I expect it lore-wise to be the standard GW new edition. That is to say, every single piece of lore is about how useless and pathetic and effortlessly overcome the Skaven are by the Stormcast, and then whatever they are doing is promptly dropped hard and never mentioned again.
@@TabletopTom That hasn't been GW's MO for edition feature factions or lore for several editions of 40K and AoS alike now though. Still, I'm a very, very long-time Skaven fan, which means I'm used to abject contempt from GW. I'll take new models, certainly, and regard the lore with as much regard as GW gives it.
The Metal Plague Priest (Skrolk) is literally the oldest Warhammer model still on sale, with release year of 1993.
Ooof! Didn’t realise it was quite that old 😳
Me and my boy Skrolk born in the same year.
It is a timeless model, though. Skaven has other models that may be not quite that old, but feel way more dated than the classic plague priest.
Is that even with the reprints?
The green knight is from 96.
Surely these ancient tomb kings are older
@@kevbrown3760 Tomb Kings weren't a thing before 6th edition, releasing in 2003.
SKAVEN GUNDAM
YES-YES
"Man-things souls weighed-dragged down by gravity!"
I think it would cool if they made lesser rat demon, having them be an actually elite unit.
Great idea! Some sort of spawn of the Verminlords themselves?

Clan Moulder and Eshin are the skaven clans i like the most, but it seems they are the most forgotten.

It's going to be awesome - can't wait! :D
Guess I’ll be jumping back in with skaven
Chaos dwarves! Chaos Dwarves!! CHAOS DWARVES!!!
New eshin units now-now!
Now we just need to hope for beast men update 🙏🙏🙏

I just really hope Ikrit is involved in some way he's been up to some silly stuff

The skaven aren't the villains they are the unsung heroes of the mortal realms, they saved everyone from the necroquake yes-yes

Haha, love it! I suspect 2024 will be the year of the rat, though 🤞🏻
@@TabletopTom When you're a ratman, every year is the year of the rat, baby.
I think also for the stormcast they need more dragon units,smaller ones the er have now though!!!

Maybe, but I think the Skaven are truly a force unto themselves - when they make an appearance, they’ll put the Stormcast through their paces.
