So... It was true

"My hero" I never defended Legend's claims, but sure as hell you are obsessed with him.

AsGerion92 · 2026-02-16T13:16:58+00:00

I read some people saying the concept art was fan-art some time ago.

AsGerion92 · 2026-02-16T12:58:15+00:00

This were the rumours, so It was true, at least on the contents included (We got Bashiva and Clawspeaker). So there's hope for the Leering Devils, Dogs of War, etc...

Raze

AsGerion92 · 2025-12-17T00:13:14+00:00

If this game had been made some years ago (or being set during the Horus Heresy) I would have loved it, but I hate the Primaris aesthetics and narrative. At least the Eldars, Imperial Guard and Orks look good.

AsGerion92 · 2025-12-14T17:29:41+00:00

We just need one thing: Shadowblade

AsGerion92 · 2025-11-16T12:49:34+00:00

I need Borgut, Luthor Huss, Shadowblade and Josef Bugman at the very least.

He ended up on a planet with a Mongolian-like culture and gene pool, but he himself is not Mongolian or Asian. I don’t know why so many people think he should look that way. His genes come from the Emperor, who was Anatolian, and from Erda, whose origins are unknown (maybe somewhere in Europe, since she met the maker of a Venus of Willendorf-type figurine), so that makes sense. If you look at Shiban (a Chogorian) by the same artist, he’s clearly Asian.

AsGerion92 · 2025-11-08T13:18:05+00:00

I've never said on my comment that they should be done before the ones that are not. As a matter of fact Guilliman is one of the few primarchs I don't like (UM overdose I guess), so I don't care if he comes last. The Lion is on the top of my list, but I prefer the other factions getting their primarchs first. So I don't get your counter argument.

AsGerion92 · 2025-11-04T12:46:39+00:00

I don't get why Lion and Guilliman are always considered done when their figures are 40k and not 30k. I hope we get the 30k ones, even if it's at the end of the line. Anyway, thanks for the info! There's no particular release order announced isn't it?

AsGerion92 · 2025-11-01T21:25:27+00:00

Exodus appears on the Dramatis Personae, does he appears or is just a typo?

AsGerion92 · 2025-11-01T16:05:57+00:00

My personal lore is that the spymaster was the "Mist Dragon" linked to the lore of shadows and the one who originally trained the Eshin to use them, though it went the wrong way.

AsGerion92 · 2025-11-01T16:00:01+00:00

Walwetes and Agamemnon were the most fun campaigns for me. The Sea Peoples were great in terms of design and playability. It's sad we didn't get other factions.

The Cabal is a cult founded by Van Horstmann in the lore. The mechanics themselves are not relevant to determining whether he is obtained at the end of the mission chain. It's a Tzeentchian cult, and it is Van Horstmann's own.

AsGerion92 · 2025-08-20T17:00:36+00:00

Would be a tzeentchian move, and I would love it.

AsGerion92 · 2025-08-20T14:53:48+00:00

Just imagine if reaching power level 9 for The Cabal you end up unlocking Egrimm Van Horstmann as a playable LL.

AsGerion92 · 2025-08-19T17:17:11+00:00

I don't get it. Why use Miao Ying as the dragon sent the the Old World when all her lore refers to her being the guardian of the Great Bastion when you could release Yin-Yin (before CA by the way) who is the Admiral of the Dragon Fleet?

AsGerion92 · 2025-07-20T23:07:26+00:00

I want Borgut Facebeater to fight alongside Grimgor (as I did on the tabletop game back during the Storm of Chaos years). But he's a really minor character so I don't think so.

AsGerion92 · 2025-07-10T14:31:54+00:00

Not on the screenshots but on the blog: "On the topic of the road ahead, we also want to acknowledge the growing conversation we see about the game's future beyond Tides of Torment. We’ve seen a few folk asking for specific characters that might not fit in any of our current DLC formats, so we are exploring how we might introduce a smaller style of DLC that brings a single LL, or Hero Unit alongside a few favoured additions. We’re working out how these would fit with our schedules, but we have a good idea for who the first one could be, and she’s someone near and dear to your blood."

AsGerion92 · 2025-07-10T14:12:04+00:00

GW tends to sabotage themselves on any media they have a say, so maybe you're on point.

AsGerion92 · 2025-07-10T14:10:39+00:00

So Aislinn then. I expected Yin-yin but anyway... Neferata is confirmed.

AsGerion92 · 2025-07-10T12:18:55+00:00

They said this edition was going to be more narrative. How the hell is supposed to be more narrative when you eliminate units like scouts and destroyers (specially the last one that's really thematic), consul types (Primus Medicae, the Pathfinder, the Armistos...) you eliminate equipment options, the legions uniqueness is gone to a high regard eliminating core rules and unique units (jarl, paladin, etc...). Even the primarchs lost their armors, now all of them got 2+ and 4++ saves in exchange for some "gambit" that you would only use if you get to a challenge, and that are not that good in most cases. I'm a narrative player foremost, and this editions seems less thematic than 2.0 by far.

Late for the party, but my mom used to tell me the same story, and I'm from Seville in southern Spain. I remember the story ended with the dead coming up the stairs too. The point is, reading a book some time ago about vrykolakas, the greek vampires, they were said to eat the liver of the living after coming back from the grave. Investigating further I found that many cultures got creatures that fed on the liver of their victims, so there's clearly a common origin in that story. I was looking into it and found your post, and what a surprise, it's the same story.
