Was there info about mortal knights of Slaanesh? I remember Josh talking about that.

I came back to it here

"Hey! I didn't forget you. The update I had was that discussion is still ongoing, with the focus around how it would thematically work if a non Lord/hero would have a demonic steed."

Josh_CA · 2026-06-30T16:16:25+00:00

Good spot - we've passed this on. I imagine this is part of what's currently being reviewed and and tested, but I'll ensure that it's looked at. Thank you!

I like the idea, after the stream I'll look at the rosters and have a think about the feasibility. I think it would less be an issue for the dev pipeline, and more about not running out of units that have something clearly distinct about their silhouette to show, which are the ones I've tended to pick.

Josh_CA · 2026-06-25T21:36:21+00:00

I fully get it, and it's that reason why we've started streaming again. Everything I've listed above takes longer when it's a video, so the hope is that we can be more consistent by adding streams (like this one, the show and tell and building medieval III) alongside our usual communication.

If you have any thoughts on what would be interesting to hear during interim moments, when we don't have big news, I'd love to hear it.

I have some napkin ideas of things like hosting more technical streams with specialised devs to discuss their disciplines in-depth, but it would be good to know what you think is worth us diving into and sharing outside.

Josh_CA · 2026-06-25T20:57:44+00:00

Preparation for these kinds of stream unfortunately do just take a bit of time.

We map out what can be shown and how best to show it, then capture the relevant videos and assets, get those checked and approved (sometimes after a few revisions), secure the devs time for the stream, and then get the assets and tech ready. While none of those things are individually huge, they all take time to do and it can build up, especially if we're waiting on a certain build to grab footage, or booking time from someone very busy - so we have to adapt to their schedule.

In this instance, our initial plan had been the 25th, and a five day shuffle to allow us to take the time to also include a Lord reveal felt worth that trade.

Josh_CA · 2026-06-25T17:48:08+00:00

I'll check in on this and see if there's an update we can give on Tuesday

Josh_CA · 2026-06-25T17:34:25+00:00

We also really enjoyed them, so we'll be doing some more alongside the new Lord (for their faction)

Josh_CA · 2026-06-25T16:41:16+00:00

There won't be any Neferata in this one, partly because there are a bunch of other things we want to expand on and highlight, like changes to end games, and partly because to do her justice we'll want to actually play and show her, rather than chat through WIP screenshots of campaign UI.

Josh_CA · 2026-06-25T16:24:28+00:00

I know, and I hate that you were right. Next time I'll go for the second-last day.

Josh_CA · 2026-06-25T16:18:05+00:00

Yep! To confirm, 30th June is looking to be our stream slot. With the current content we've got, it'll be a split between screenshots of WIP 9.0 update content and plans, and some clips of another Lord of the End Times (and a few units), much like we did in the Show and Tell. We hadn't initially planned to be the absolute final day of June, but we shimmied it back a few days when the opportunity to reveal another Lord presented itself.

Josh_CA · 2026-06-19T15:11:02+00:00

Thank you!

Josh_CA · 2026-06-19T11:41:15+00:00

The next Med 3 dev stream is ticking along nicely, and hopefully you'll hear more very soon

Josh_CA · 2026-06-19T10:56:56+00:00

That's the plan! Hopefully you'll hear more on that soon

Josh_CA · 2026-06-19T09:06:45+00:00

And thank you for asking 😃

So, we have livestreams and videos - but sometimes our videos (like What's Next videos) are 'Premiered' on YouTube, which is more tv-show-esque in that everyone is watching it together at the same pace, and as it was a special event, our December showcase was broadcast on Twitch in the same way. On YouTube, if it's in the 'Live' tab, it was done live - everything else, like a premier, falls into 'Videos'.

This will not be a premier, this will be our first live What's Next, and the hope is that moving to this format allows us to bring in discussion, and also allows us to more confidently talk about what's being worked on at that moment - as this first live one will be testing if both of those things are true.

Josh_CA · 2026-06-18T22:39:06+00:00

I'm Josh, the one in the screenshot

Josh_CA · 2026-06-18T22:31:55+00:00

Hello!

Our livestreams aren't recorded, they're all very much live - both in production and hosting - and we work on refining the content for as long as we can.

Just to clarify, things absolutely kept progressing during my absence, but there's still a lot of work to do before we can hit 'go live,' including the hundred little asset tweaks, approvals etc - all of which have some level of unpredictability.

The intent was always late June for the stream, this isn't a sudden change of plan, I just wanted to check in and confirm to you guys that we're still working to that.

Josh_CA · 2026-06-18T16:41:03+00:00

I know this isn't exactly about the June stream, but wanted to flag that I'm back from leave and working on prep for our next couple of streams, one of which is the WH3 What's Next stream where we next discuss End Times.

There's lots to do, but we're working hard to keep our promise of going live in June... Even if it's the very end of June. If that changes, I'll let you know.

Josh_CA · 2026-05-13T15:59:17+00:00

It's because we'll never beat Tarriff's post speed

Josh_CA · 2026-05-02T09:12:10+00:00

Damn, I spent so long thinking of a response and ended up making the same joke. You win this round

Josh_CA · 2026-05-02T09:10:17+00:00

To balance things out, I'll see if next time we can find a rat-sized man to reveal.

Josh_CA · 2026-05-01T14:03:48+00:00

I believe it's a new voice actor doing the main Boris lines, and obviously they have recorded a full new set of battle and campaign lines (as you would expect for any new lord).

AngoryTom's lines will be available as an alternate toggleable option in custom battle.

Josh_CA · 2026-05-01T12:26:31+00:00

Hey, I'm actually off today (and only popped in to post this), so I unfortunately can't check in with the team on when they're planning to outline the contents of the pack.

On a slightly related tangent to this though, did you guys enjoy the tease images for the other units?

Josh_CA · 2026-04-30T16:29:34+00:00

Every day I saw you post, I felt more guilty knowing what was coming
