Icy truck box / plastic Shopping Slave x 1 Option Hero

hehehe yeah ...seems likely!

[T.D.]

...November, hmm.

Wonder if GW are timing it for the release of Thor: The Dark World and all the consequent internet searches for "Dark Elves" and "Malekith"?

...wouldn't put it past them

[Swordofkhaine]

Finally official models for the Icy Truck Box and plastic shopping slave .

soooo tired of having to scratch build those.

now what am i supposed to do with my barbie zamboni driver playset ?

read them closer.

some weird garbled translation issues going on there. i was poking fun at them.

[The_Peacemaker]

I still don't know what an Ice truck box with a plastic shopping slave is but I suspect I will buy one when it comes out.

I'm less excited about the new witch elves since the release of Raging Heroes Blood Vestals. http://www.ragingheroes.com/collections ... od-vestals

GW wyches will have to be pretty darn skimpy for me to buy them. None of this G-rated demonettes redo that they did.

[Golan]

hehe, well I have made quick research and found translation source here:
http://www.marcusbeli.es/ElBaluarte/vie ... 46&t=22128

"Caja Carro de Gélidos/Carro de Esclavos de plástico"
is translated by translate.google to:
"Icy truck box / plastic Shopping Slave"

but after using some dictionaries it comes to:
"coldone armoured chariot/slave truck(wagon,coach,carriage)" - pick best word to name it : -)

[Cobra]

That sounds interesting thanks for doing a real translation makes a little more sense now.

[Dalamar]

Ugh, I really hope no slaves are included in the actual army list... They are too valuable a commodity to throw away.

But a slave cart that has some sort of positive buff on allies and negative hex on enemies could be cool... As long as the slaves themselves are kept safe... and valuable.

Would they have stolen my idea for a corsair's COB?

I wont like it either if there are slave foot troops but that doesnt sound like that will be the case. This sounds more like some sort of buff/hex wagon to me.

[Kargan daemonclaw]

maybe a dark elf version of a screaming bell. The amount the slaves are tortured represents the number of dice rolled and the effects they give out could inspire DE to new levels of blood lust or demoralise enemies as to their potential fate.

I like the Icy truck/shopping slave translation though....

[Fallenturtle]

0.0 Holy Matt ward batman!

[Setomidor]

Thanks for sharing! Really looking forward to this

[Kheirakh]

What? No new dark riders, no new chariot? Sounds weird. But thanks for the info anyway!

[Dalamar]

There was already a rumor of a dual kit with chariot and a new unit inside of it (some sort of a slave cart?)

I have not heard a thing about Dark Riders which indeed is odd... the models we have are so dated (5th edition) that I don't know a single person using them.

[Calisson]

For easier reference, I've edited the first post of this thread with links to all threads about our future army book.

[allusivetable]

I'm liking the sounds of most of these rumors, especially plastic witche elves
Though I wonder if we will get a 'strike force box' similar to the one that's now up for Pre Order for marines. It's a nice deal, and would be a good way to get a new dark elf army

[van Awful]

I'm liking the threadcategories; rumors; guesses; wishes!
Next one, prayers!

[Kheel]

I hear that pre-ordering start 27th september,and the official release is october 4th.
We'll see if that is true or not in roughly three weeks

[Phierlihy]

=) x1000

[Faustus5000]

Scroungerunner?!?

[Vahjra]

I have to agree with the folks over at warseer, this just seems too good to be true.
All the better if it ends up being true though.

[Faustus5000]

Maybe but some of the things in the He book seem ridiculous and yet we have them to deal with. Really curious to see some more collaborative articles.
