What's more, the Slann are the only actual survivors from the Old World besides gods.

It's more like the Skaven trying to fight the Lizardmen and getting BTFO, then coming back later to try again, for centuries.

They're one of the biggest rivalries in the settings.

Basically the Skaven come in and fuck shit up then get entirely beaten back at the end, over and over, until the end times they try to blow up the moon and rain shards down on Lustria except they mostly kill their own men with them while the lizardmen fuck off into space with giant chunks of lustria still intact and now floating above the realm of azure in AoS.
>>
>>52472107
In Age of Sigmar, encountering Seraphon causes Skaven to have visions of nightmare jungles filled with dinosaurs and the sounds of drums as their people are sacrificed and their hearts offered to the gods. Lizardmen fucked up Skaven so hard, they're practically mythological horrors to them.

>>52474746
>First thing ghost-kroak does after the wold gets AoS'd is kill demonfucking shits
>>
>>52471957
Skaven dominated them during the End Times, killing them all or forcing them to flee into space via moonfall.
All of the actual Lizardmen would then go on to die in space, leaving only the Slann alive.

while the humans were uniting under sigmar in what will be considered year 0 the lizardmen were having a war with the skaven so big they ended up awakening a new god of racial hatred

so yes, if anything skaven have been the main faction lizardmen have had battle against after the great wars with daemons at the start of the timeline

Are you trolling or did you just discover the setting this morning? It's one of the biggest conflicts in the setting. Skaven hated the lizards so much that they dropped a moon on them.

No, you asshole. The planet was just destroyed. It's literally in the ending of WHFB and intro of AOS. What's wrong with you. It's been confirmed decades ago that the Old World was just a planet in a giant universe and Chaos was invading it among others.

The Lizardmen fled into space. The Lizardmen were so stupid they didn't pack supplies or any life support systems since on the journey ALL the Lizardmen but the Slaan died.

>>
>>52478685
Furthermore, the Wind of Magic fled into space as well and manifested into the Mortal Realms. Reality wasn't "remade" the surviving elements of the Old World just fled from the onslaught of Chaos into part of the universe, for a time, out of Chaos's notice.

The Slaan spent countless ages in their ships alone stewing in their despair and grief. Dracthoian, aka Dragon Bro, eventually found their ships and in curiosity flew to them. The Slaan SADNESS was so intense that the noble SPESS dragon was bombarded with images of the fate of the Old World. Dragon Bro felt SAD at what happened to that world and the ordeal of these beings. So SAD that he shed tears of stars that the Slaan used to navigate their way to the Mortal Realms landing in Azyr the Realm of Heaven.

On the way and while there the Slaan were infused with the power of Azyr which they used to being back their Lizardmen servants in form of memories and dreams given life by the power of the heavens. Thus were power the Seraphon.

He also considers anything that goes against his personal interpretation to be fanfiction, and has an encyclopedic knowledge of lore that agrees with him, and convenient bouts of amnesia for lore that contradicts him.
He's also the type of genuine autist that refuses to let things go. It literally took 5 years of getting BTFO over the Blood Ravens/1Kson connection before he finally dropped it.

Can't wait to play Lizardmen. They became my favorite army around the time 7th was starting up, when I got back into fantasy (undead were previous army, so the 1st game was loved too).

The potential for them is there in a lot of ways too. Other Lizardmen factions to conquer or Confederate (since not everyone follows the Old One's plan in the same way), Mazdamundi, and probably Krok'Gar as well for special Lords. And no doubt some sort of special mechanic representing how well everything is following the Old One's plan.

There's all kinds of awesome Lizardmen art out there (even some rule34 with Amazons).

Frankly it's going to be hard for them to get them looking as good with such small models. But as long as they're somewhat colourful and and vicious looking, then we should be good. And honestly, the fat arms on the Slann don't bug me as much as the hat does, for some reason.

>>52480951
Seeing lizardmen in a warhammer game at all made me very happy, but the designs of Slann in the models had some very specific things that made it work in the model/tabletop. The skinny as shit limbs. The implied massive amounts of weed. The fact that he doesn't even look like hes paying attention while he casually dispels your wizards greatest works.

For some reason the look of bored/mild contempt on the old Slann model is what made me like them, and I don't see much of that in the clip posted.
>>

Yes, they gave them dicks.

I can understand that. Though a 'sleepy Slann' wouldn't have been as cool an image for a release trailer. Hopefully we get the more lethargic version in game though. Mazda is sorta an exception as well, since the last army book talked about him being really active because he shook off the malaise that's plagued all his kind since the coming of Chaos to the world.

It's retarded that the race that's supposed to be most at home in the woods (Wood Elves) is actually at a huge disadvantage on wooded maps because the effectiveness of their archers is effectively cut in half or worse because the shit AI can't stop firing straight into trees.

The slann had access to a geomagnetic web bursting to full and would have wiped out the rats with ease if they didn't happen to blow up the moon the same day. Also, the skaven didn't intentionally drop the moon to defeat the lizardmen, the slann purposely contained the explosions to the southlands and lustria so that the rest of the word would have a fighting chance. Those warpstone fragments were supposed to fall everywhere because the skaven are retarded and didn't realize it's hard to harvest it when the world has been destroyed by continent sized fragments

Anyone else chuckling at the ads for the game, as well? Where there's talk about who the 4th 'mystery race' is going to be.

I'm pretty sure it's going to be Skaven, and they're not going to be a DLC race. Both because the oft-mentioned Tomb Kings are more neutral, and probably wouldn't be interested in destroying the High Elves' vortex. Not to mention the rat that obviously shows up in the trailer.

Agreed. Happy skinks are the best skinks.

I feel like they are a "good guy" counterpart to skaven and goblins in the sense that they are overeager shit-heads who regularly mis-interpret the slann and argue weeks on end over stupid bullshit.

From playing the med 2 mod I have gathered that the core of your elven armies, both dark are filled with citizen soldiers that are armed like hoplites that engage in a shoving match. Their artillery is a semi automatic bolt thrower.

Dork elves get repeating xbows while high elves get english longbowmen.

Don't know about monsters because they crash games.

Lizardmen are a weird bunch. They have lots of different style units you wouldn't expect to see together. Skinks are fast and nimble with poison. Saurus are big and nasty but slow. Slaan are the best wizards in the game. It's a very mixed bag that somehow works well.

Elves are all about speed, agility, magic and striking first. They're kind of a glass hammer.

What the other anon said, but also Lizardmen tend to have a thing for "big monsters" as well, since they live in a primordial jungle that still has dinosaurs living in it (they used magic in ancient times to bump it up to death-world levels of lethality).

Most notably are the classic Stegadon, basically a triceratops crossed with a stegasaurus, as well as the Carnosaur (T-rex). But there is also the heavily armoured Anklyodon, as well as the Troglodon (pic related).

Then there's 'smaller' monsters, which include their flyers in the form of terranadons and ripperdactyls, and the ground-dwelling Cold Ones, which are beefy and dumb velociraptors, and also used by Dark Elves.

Going by the tabletop game stats for in-game comparisons. Skinks are slightly more fragile than Goblins, but are faster and (slightly) more dependable in battle. Saurus are literally created to be warriors, knowing all they need to know how to fight moments after being 'born' (Lizardmen emerge fully grown from pools of magical water), and are comparable to Chaos Warriors, but aren't quite as quick or as skilled, and don't have as heavy armour. While the Slann exist in limited numbers, spend a lot of time sleeping, and are tough, but generally can't fight without their magic.

Kroxigar. They are basically equivilant to ogres and trolls in other factions.

They are kinda dumb and not as aggressive as Saurus, but the fact is that few things in the warhammer universe are as aggressive/mean as saurus warriors.

Kroxigar are plenty dangerous and aquatic to boot. Because of this they work very well with skinks. ALso if memory serves are a little tougher than trolls.

Isn't the rivalry something relatively recent in the setting (6th or 7th edition) and therefore probably forged on the spot because neither race had a proper rival? I don't remember lizardmen having any special relationship with skaven in the earlier editions.

Actually Lord Kroak used his shear force of will to revive his spirit and sucked the warpstone meteor into Lustria sot the rest of the world survived.

Skaven scientists shot an ICBM at a moon, which exploded over the Western hemisphere and its falling debris completely destroyed Lustria and Naggaroth. Of course, all the Skaven who were in Lustria also died, but that's okay because it was clan Skryre who launched the nuke, and they hate clan Pestilens even more than they hate Lizardmen.

I think people are confused about the whole moon thing:
>clan skryre, the mad tech clan of skaven, builds a rocket to blow up the moon, which would cause warpstone (literally physical magic, fuel for almost all skaven tech and literally crack to skaven) chunks to fall, atmosphere slowly
>The grey seers, the religious order of skaven, get told by a demon rat that if they pull the moon closer with this ritual, the power would allow them immense power.
>Moon is pulled very close, happens to be on the same day that skryer send out mood spanker
>End of the world was literally miscommunication and show-and-tell day at the council of 13

They warmed the world so it can be assumed and i think according to 40k they are cold blooded and long lived.

It can be assumed that they were simmilar to the lizardmen,but not neccesarily just even more powerfull slann.

From their artefacts and the few clues we got we can assume they were actually capeable of moving around on their own and wielding melee weapons. They also had 5 fingers opposed to the lizardmen 4.

If the lizardmen statues are supposed to depict the oldones then they could look fairly simmilar to the lizardmen.

They also had a bunch of magical items with 40k wargear rules in their fortress at Albion.
>>
>>52496349
Aren't the Tomb Kings in the same general area? If not, then that makes me a little sad because I want Chaos Dwarves and Ogres in the game.
>>
>>52496440
The Old ones gear is all based on 40k stuff.

Remember that Orks build Bolters too and they have been engineered by the Old Ones.
As such it can be concluded that the Bolter is probably not a uniqueley Human invention.

I find it more likley that in the Dark Age of Technology, Humans have encountered Orks or other Old Ones engineered societies and reverse engineered their designs.

I mean in reality it all boils down to it beeing a nod towards 40k in general and Space Marine weapons beeing the most well known 40k weapons.
>>
>>52496440
>52496440
Also not just Bolters.

What do you think the "Piranah" sword is?
I think they also got equivalents for iron halos, chain fists and power swords in the albion campaign and the lizardmen magical items got the Chainsword i mentioned above and a few other things.
>>
>>52496889
No, they're to the south, nobody lives there but more undead and Lizardmen further south.
>>
>>52497165
Oh, so it still kind of works. I hope 3 will range from Chaos Dwarves and Ogres to the Tomb Kings.
>>
>>52496889
>>52497201

One of the most followed theories said that the expansions would be in this three lands. But we're getting the Southlands in Total Warhammer 2, so probably Tomb kings will be there as well.

Which would imply that there are no race DLC for game 2.

I think we need to get away from the idea that game 3 will be like game 2.

I think game 3 will be like Attila to Rome and overhaul the game and perhaps introduce new iterations of races we already got.
>>
>>52497364
I sure as hell hope they at least get spellcaster heroes right by game 3.

Kemmler and Gelt are currently a complete waste of a slot that could be much better taken by a standard wizard.

>>52497565
I own Lizardmen, the Saurus warriors look like manlets because their heads are way too big compared to their bodies and their are not even 1/3 taller than my skinks.

maybe you are thinking of the new saurus guard, i still own the old metal ones so maybe the new ones do better but 6th edition saurus guard are fucking manlets.

>>52480779
indeed
>>
>>52497569
Because they die easily, and nothing distinguishes them from a standard wizard of the same order, outside faster cooldowns and higher point cost.

Granted, Gelt's the only way for the Empire to get Metal wizards, but Metal isn't exactly a top tier magic wind, and you're much better off getting a lord who can actually do some damage and/or not die to a stiff breeze for his point cost.
>>
>>52497642
6th edition saurus warriors i mean.
>>
>>52497642
>they look small because of hero scale!

Nice relativism, subjective, point still remains. They are amongst the biggest infantry. Bigger than chaos warriors, who are fluff wise about supposed to be about 2 metres.
>>
>>52478361
So what's it like for non-Chaos peoples to interact with lizardmen? I imagine that Slann would basically just ignore you. But what about Skinks and Sauruses?
>>
>>52479420
>bullshit copy and paste DLC for their own titles.
That's what pisses me off the most honestly. Getting 5 different human factions with the same exact animations and skeletons but different stats and colors is somehow worth 20 bucks but an entirely new race with entirely different animations and units working in a wholly unique way is not? Its not like they're selling goddamn Tilea or Kislev for 20 bucks but the fuckers still bitch and moan as if now they suddenly care about getting fucked up the ass the exact same way they did before.

>>52497668
well saurus warriors are supposed to be over 2 meters tall.
And i specifically talked about how they looked not about the scale. Huge heads, tiny arms, broad crocodile looking mouth.

I much prefer what they did with them in the trailer and from the grey models weve seen in the interview in the game, they look more menacing and less like chinese knockoff dinosaurs.
>>
>>52478719

Seraphons are memories summoned as Damons of Orders... but even the state of "memories" is not sure, maybe they are something more... some kind of ascendend race that can be summoned beyond space and time by the Slann.

Nothing looks small or big without a relation to something else. The word you are looking for is stocky, which I am fine with, even though I agree that they could have done a better job at making the models more dynamic and feral as it is represented in the artwork.
>>
>>52479667
Something that size would need to be an ambush predator, it's not going to be chasing prey over large distances.
>>
>>52471957
Ha, surely you jest fellow citizen. There is no such race of giant rat people that the lizardmen would fight. Such a thing would be absurd!

Listen to this heretic...he believes in such an absurd fever dream of a monstrosity as a lizard walking on two legs. To the stake with him I say.

Dude no, if you're going to correct people in he fluff at least get it right. The grey seers pulled the moon closer months before the moon killing death ray was activated. it's why the slann got knocked out in the first place and how the skaven were initially so successful in the opening stages of the war.

My dear friend, you didn't even get chaos undivided without a DLC...

of course you will, core games' roster usually end up pretty complete

at worst you'll not get the hellpit abos

If that's 3, I'm happy. That's what I was hoping for.
>>
>>52497364
Amazonians? Aren't there some variety of human there? And some variety of Chaos?
>>
>>52497533
Yes and no. Gelt can definitely be useful if you use metal right. However, Kemmler is 100% the most useless.

But also, you're only mentioning 2 mage heroes. What about the Fae Enchantress? Ghorst? Wurrzag? Azhag? Moghor?
>>
>>52498541
I can't speak for the Enchantress or Morghor, having not played them, But Azhag and Wurzag are both useful in a fight, albeit not as much as a standard Melee Lord.
Ghorst is useful because he can Summon Grave guard rather than standard zombies.

IMO, Ghorst is the baseline they should use to make pure spellcasters more useful; they get malleable and more powerful spells of the wind they're based off.
>>
>>52498590
Someone like Ghorst or Azhag imo. Ghorst because he gets better spells, Azhag because Orcs can't get death w/o him (and because death is literally the best magic).
>>
>>52498494
You've got Not!Vikings, Zombie-Pirates, Aztec Amazons, Estalian Conquistadors and various Empire coastal colonies, at least in the lore.

Dunno if they'll add any of them though, they're all pretty undeveloped in terms of what units they'd have. To my knowledge only the Vampire Coast ever got anything resembling tabletop rules and they were basically just slightly tweaked VC.
>>
>>52498638
Was it shadows that has purple sun? Cause that spell is pretty damn good.

So is Windblast suprisingly so.
>>
>>52494266
It was just the traditional way for women to ride horses for years - partially due to what was seen as proper (straddling a horse was seen as immodest), and partially because women for a long time wore long dresses, which were awkward to wear with a normal saddle while riding astride.
>>
>>52498652
Purple sun is death. Same with spirit leech. Those are (imo) the 2 best spells.
>>
>>52496440
>dirty chaos norsemen try to claim Amazons of their own
>instead of aknowledging their origin as the righteous servants of the Old Ones
This displeases the Slann
>>
>>52499979
>They are woman
>they fight damn well
For the Norse that means they are related to them. As their woman are also often damn good fighters.

On a related note: How do you think Skeggi would develop without end time shit?
The Norse there were already riding cold ones by then. Them going full native and venerating the Old Ones and Sotek would've been hilarious.
>>
>>52496440
I remember an old black library short story. It was basically about an empire spearman and a village fighting off beast men. Right at the end angels come down, hinted at being blood angels. Was crazy, but i doubt its canon now.
>>
>>52498541
any tips for using metal magic?
>>
>>52503107
So the premise was that the entire world of Warhammer fantasy/AOS is a feudal/feral world with feral orks and elves that the blood angles recruit from?

Spooky

>>52498541
I just don't get why Kemmler can't get Krell as a buddy/pet the same way Skarsnik has the Gobbla. Were they worried about VC's having too many combat monster legendary lords?
>>
>>52502005
>On a related note: How do you think Skeggi would develop without end time shit?
They would be similar to humans of Albion who were in contact with Old Ones and were more powerful mages than slann and elves.

They're just jealous because they didn't learn about the glorious Slann Empire in their history classes.
>>
>>52503107
to be fair I don't remember any actual direct confirmation in that short story that it was a village in the warhammer world, nor a warhammer fantasy story

I think the trick there was not outright saying that it was a backwater planet in 40k
