gangs of Commorragh!?

Hey guys,
FYI Just spotted this over BOLS

http://www.belloflostsouls.net/2016/12/40k-breaking-plastic-sisters-more-sighted.html

Looks like a dark elder stand alone game imo. (reaver racing game maybe?)

But hey its something new for dark elder maybe released in Jan/feb 2017.......?

later,

They're probably trying to flog more Wyches and Hellions by making them useful outside of 40K. Maybe if they made them playable inside 40K they might sell more?

I got a feeling this ties into a larger Dark Eldar release or at the very least the new models will be given rules for 40k.

Edit
Also to whomever said a shadow aelfs ro dark aelfs release. Shame on you for having no faith in the Dark Kin.

Wow you lot got onto this early, and I am totally on board with Reaver and Hellion racing

Allegedly the DE and Sisters were getting packed into a starter set, but I think they could have mistook that for this. Who wants to bet the DE will be fighting the Sisters?

Actually as much as I want it to be a larger release I would totally be in for a reaver racing game. I need reavers and the books make it sound pretty exciting. I could see it being really fun.

I think it`s maybe some kind of a kill team expansion for DE or rules for Flyers.
That wing-thing may also be a part of a river jetbike.

i`m so exited about this!
p.s. And new models looks cool indeed

I'm thinking a Hellion pad.

Well, GW anounced, that EVERY faction of WH40k will recieve new model in 2017.
So we would probably see it sooner or later.

I bet it`s a board game like Overwatch, just in streets of Commorragh

Perhaps "Gangs of Commoragh" is actually the title of a new DE supplement coming up?

Wishful thinking?

@BetrayTheWorld, nice to see you back on the board. However, you new found optimism may die quickly

Have any of the other boardgames sold for less than the models worth? Wondering if this is going to be the way I buy reavers...

All of them have, sometime for less than half the indavidual models value.

Yeah, whatever other problems I may have with GW, it's hard to argue that the boxed games they've produced lately (Betrayal at Calth, Burning of Prospero, Death Masque etc) have been great value if you just want the miniatures. I seem to recall that the Death Masque box was selling for less than the RRP of the Harlequin models on their own!

Yeah, I think based on the assumption Eldrad is going to be £16 (he'll probably be more) it would £125 for the Harlequins side of that box alone.

Getting ready to add a load of Reavers next year. If this is a boxed game that makes them cheaper somehow......WINNING

Cheaper probably not,  but it might give them a formation that makes them a little better.  YES!!!!!

They all get +1 to Jink Saves, or Rerolls.    Yes Wishful Thinking!

I would get 3 more Squads(18) Bikes.

I would die happy. Or double my numbers to 60....

Reroll failed jink saves and they are so fast they allow no overwatch.
I would max out on them...

Yes but everyone is assuming Reavers.   The picture seems more Hellions then Reavers.

Baron with Hellion Formations?

"Gangs" has always explicitly meant Hellions. I feel like I've seen sub-groups of Reavers described as gangs as well, but they're still part of the Cults.

I guess the question is whether they mean "Gangs" (Hellions), "gangs" (any relatively small group of unaffiliated Dark Eldar), or both.

There's enough Dark Eldar subgroups (subsubgroups?) who are not a part of a Kabal, Coven, or Cult that it might make sense to focus on several of them in the same release.

I wish we knew if it was a book or a box.

Formation that allows cluster caltrops on every bike!

Ohh stop it!

With that I would rule the galaxy. Opponents are scared of my reavers now!

Hellions that can jink would be cool
