"Tomb-Kings" as we knew them in Warhammer Fantasy are gone...

£10? I could go for that. I did just start rebasing my undead a few days ago, so this is pretty good timing.

I'll add I what I've been told by a GW rep last Thursday whilst I was buying some AoS Chaos. (Take salt)

during our conversation he let slip that the Tomb Kings are being phased out; this is due to them not fitting aesthetically with the vampire counts and the lack of sales they generate even with the free rules.

When this comes our we'll know for sure (they wouldn't throw rules out for a faction they're dropping right?)

[Dyolfnai]

So it's just grand alliance vampire counts then I was hoping they would amalgamate both vampires and tomb kings into 1 rather than just get rid of tomb kings altogether. Also 35 wars rolls when the vampire count download has 39, looks like some characters are getting the chop!

£10 ain't bad though

Not convinced TK are going away. At all.

Remember, people swore blind Seraphon weren't happening. And Beastmen were being removed. And the scale was being rejigged and enlarged.

Yet none of those came to pass.

[Dyolfnai]

I really hope they stay but only having 35 warscrolls over 8 factions that don't include mummy's or reanimates doesn't fill me with confidence considering this is a grand alliance death book. Unless tomb kings become destruction or, more likely but still far fetched, order. Tho stranger things have happened, lizards are now deamons!

Hope for the best, expect the worst.

Although the free downloads will still be usable for the foreseeable future

[Mr Mystery]

Currently 64 Undead Warscrolls on the App, of which 24 are Tomb Kings.

So that would leave 40.

Now, some are pretty much doublers, such as Skellingtons and Tomb Guard, so no guarantee their gone.

But yeah. Hmm.

I don't see why they'd ditch Tomb Kings. They got a pretty substantial overhaul in their last book, including multiple (very nice) plastic kits. They're bought and paid for, and the only time you'd make a loss is if you removed them from sale entirely.

Intriguing.
