    To be honest I miss the days of herohammer, better than the musthavehugehordessobuy50troopsornewmonsters that exists today

    Ordered both the LTD edition and cards, very keen here!

    So happy to see Crom back, such a great figure. By the looks of it the rules for Valten are in his first version, so I'm guessing the Exalted version's rules will follow in some later book as the storyline progresses. It'll be interesting to see if the other special characters from Storm of Chaos get updated rules (and possibly figures) as the End Times series continues, like Ar-Ulric, Garagrim Ironfist, Borgut Facebeater etc. I'd love to see a plastic Goblin-Hewer with a new Malakai Makaisson most though, always loved that crazy dwarf.

    Either there is life in the universe more intelligent than us, or we are the most intelligent form of life in the universe. Either way, it's a worrying thought!

The "End Times" thing is a horrible cliche, a trope that extremely novice writers and kids wanting to be writers use (though ironically, even as a kid, I never went there, because it was so dull and predictable).
    For Hans the Halberdier it probably feels like the end of the world, but in the big picture it's just another incremental step towards the WH world slowly getting ****tier.

    Noticed gotrek gurnisson gets a mention in the sample of the novel that they've put up. Wonder if they'll redo him

    Apologies for not reading all 23 pages of nerdgasms, but is this confirmed to be a new campaign? Or is it a retcon/rehaul of the last Black Crusade with Abadd... I mean incursion with Archaon?
    How many times will it be End times? And wasn't Valten killed/kidnapped by the Skaven after said campaign?

    Not entirely sold on Nagashs mini, too big a hat and silly octopus arms for my taste.
    But if it's supernew fluff with Nagash in it, I probably will buy the book for that alone, even if don't have any WHFB models at all anymore.

    It appears to be nothing less than a reboot of the Warhammer setting. It's not a world campaign like Storm of Chaos, but more like the Sanctus Reach stuff for 40k: there'll be more books telling the story, setting things up, providing variant rules, campaigns, scenarios etc.

    The End Times is taking the place of Storm of Chaos. It happens at the same time. Storm of Chaos was rolled back/retconned to "about to happen" a few years ago - every 8th ed books leaves it on the cusp. So forget everything that happened in that campaign. The End Times is the new, "current" state of Warhammer.

    It's entirely possible that the Warhammer World that follows will be quite a different place. The game and setting have needed a shakeup for a while; this is that. I think it's as exciting as hell.

    Thanks alot Cpt Smurf, for both clarification and a quick reply.

    So they did the same thing with both of their systems.
    I'm one of those who really loved how they made "permanent" changes the way they did with both Storm of Chaos and Eye of Terror. And to hear, see and read that they decided to pull back a few years was disappointing, and quite frankly it's quite hard to read the fluff nowadays when those memories are still lingering.


    That said, I will most likely buy this book just for the fluff and the probably superb artwork.

    In my mind, Grimgor's headbutt of Archaon still happened.
