Looking at the 12 Factions of Christmas, and it seems we are getting a very light stocking. Is this accurate, is it only Jalaam?
I know PP doesn't always spoil their models, but lately it seems they tell us every model that is about to drop, if not what they do. If anyone knows more, please share.

that is all I am aware of... I guess you can count the new minion theme as a bunch of new models.

"that is all I am aware of... I guess you can count the new minion theme as a bunch of new models." That's certainly true. We effectively got our warbeast stable doubled, though only four of them are likely under consideration. Maybe six, depending on whether the Dracodile is available and whether it has Critical Blind or just Blind on the final card. |

They also teased a new warlock attachment in their insider on DOA before the themepocolyse. Granted no timeline attached to this.

As far asthe 12 Factions of Christmas, everyone gets one thing. For people like me, the new theme drop gives us reasons to buy faction models we werent considering (being in Legion for me its Azrael and Warmongers).

Great point. Beyond the Minion Warbeasts, Masters of War is making me consider more Skorne model purchases. I've been running Makeda2 with Immortals instead of double cats to date (because I have them), but MoW is way too good with the Jumpkitties. I need a second unit and Rhadeim now. "They also teased a new warlock attachment in their insider on DOA before the themepocolyse. Granted no timeline attached to this."
Hadn't heard this yet. Can you tell more about what they spoiled? |

Just Jalaami Salami? Have you seen that guy's rules? He is going to be amazing.

Hadn't heard this yet. Can you tell more about what they spoiled? This is from the 9-18-17 insider which focused on DOA which Will Hungerford wrote. "For all these units you take, specifically for every full 20 points of units in the army, you get to add one Skorne command attachment (note: you might notice something weird about this . . . future proofing!) or one small-based Skorne solo to your force for free." That's all the hint we got of what it could be. |

What about that sounds like a warlock attachment?

I think he meant unit attachment. Probably for Nihilators.

Future-proofing doesn't necessarily mean near-future.

Future-proofing doesn't necessarily mean near-future. Indeed which I tried to point out when I said no timeline was mention as to when it would be released. Nothing to get excited about but enough for some rumors. |

I have a hard time with what to give Nihilators as a CA that wouldn't step on another units toes or make them Doom Reavers...
Super tough?
Last Word?
Hard?

I know we don't want them.to be exactly do revers but I still really want silence.
Relentless charge wouldn't be a terrible tactics either.
Impervious flesh, or a signs and portents mini feat like exemplars?
Vengeance and mass Carnage like the Tharn UA.
Gang would be an interesting risk reward option.
All sorts of options I'd like to see.
