De chez Warseer
I FEEL LIKE DEATH

I mentioned last time that John Blanche was doing the concept art for the new Undead. I think Games Workshop is keen to produce its own vision of the Undead rather than something more generic so that Games Workshop’s Undead are unlike anyone else’s Undead. I think this is something they will look to achieve increasingly in the future with other armies, which may also explain some of the change in ‘flavour’ in the recent Empire releases.
As a result we can expect a more “constructed” look, artificial beings more than the typical zombies’ held together with bits of wood, metal and bone.

On this theme the whole “Golem” (Ogre sized, Undead constructs) rumour just refuses to die (that’s Undead for you!). I still keep hearing about this unit even though I asked Gav about it myself and he told me it was not happening. I think what may be happening is rumours from Warseer are just being repeated. Having said that, Golems did make it into the Liber Necris, which is the Undead’s answer of the Liber Chaotica by The Black Library. So make of that what you will. Honestly I have no idea!

Some people on the forums seem to be under the impression that bloodlines are going to be scrapped in the new book. I am not sure this is correct. Last time I said:

“Gav Thorpe has been quoted as saying that he thinks the bloodlines are too restrictive and that players should be able to have more individual vampires, not limited by the bloodlines.”

I get the impression bloodlines will still be there and have an effect on your list but their importance will be toned down a little. I have heard that vampires will be able to pick from a selection of vampire abilities but will not be restricted by their bloodline.

Most of the mini’s; I told you about last time (the zombies, the Ghouls and Skeleton Variants (including plastic Grave Guard), are now finished.
I suggested we would be getting a number of new vampires. So far I have heard about acouple of Necrachs and a mounted Lahmian but the two most interesting Vampire minis I have heard about so far are a female Blood Dragon (Ohhh. Kate Beckinsale sir? Suits you sir. Will sir be wanting a mini to go with that? Your damn tooting sir will) and a really impressive vampire Lord transforming into a bat that sounds cool.
I have heard about both plastic and metal Necromancers. I have said before that I do not anticipate a plastic Vampire kit but a selection of metal vampires however I think we will be getting a Plastic kit for Foot & Mounted Necromancers. (with multiple heads arms much like the Empire mage sprue). But I also think we will get some Metal Necromancers just as we have for the Empire in addition to the plastic kit.

And that’s it for minis cough plague cough cart cough. Excuse me. Until next time.
