Early Feb GW revealed the new Orcs and Goblins range of miniatures and Army Book. They are Due out for release in March. Wow that giant Spidey looks huge and awesome, is my intial impression. After contemplating the impact of a Monster of a monster base size, 100x150, Arnie and I asked ourselves a question. Where are they taking this? You can't tell us the GW has decided to just design a new base size and only use it for one single new monster. Bologna! There is more than meets the eye, there has to. Some new and big is on the Horizon for the Tomb Kings. I can feel it. "But what could it be?", You may ask. Well here is a very, very preliminary educated guess: Tomb Kings Sphinx. Yes Bold and wildly unpredictable but a possibility. Let me explain.
Monday Feb 14: 9:22 AM I recieved an email from GW about the news of Tomb Kings.
9:23 AM Arnie recieved a phone call from me with excitement about the release.
10 AM End of discussion and result was what could they do new for TK. result: new monster.
10:28 AM Arnie proposes the fact that GW wouldn't make a new monster base without utilizing it for other new models.
9PM Pondering and working I decided to delve into the TK army book and search the interwebz for ideas.
9:26PM Found this Sphinx model on GW's Warmaster Undead page. It looks TKish and would fit with the army fluff very easily.
Could this be an idea of what one of the new releases be for TK? Maybe, but we will have to wait for the rumor mill and hopefully some leaked pics to confirm this possibility. Until next time thanks for reading and more updates are on the way. Oh yeah we are both excited for Orcs and Goblins but we are more excited for Tomb Kings.
We have a large Tomb Kings army that has been collecting dust since purchasing them in 2009. Largely unplayable in 8th Edition we hope these great models and army theme will hit the tabletop with at least a playable competitive spirit. Thats nothing against Orcs and Goblins but they had a better chance on the tabletop than the TK who usually got tabled. Thought below, PLEASE, Im desperate for feedback.
seems an interesting idea. Only just got into fantasy myself and collecting HElves. Is the HElves dragon not on the same base? how about lizzies stegadon?
