I'm still hoping for armies of the Hobgobla-Khan! You mean there's something you haven't written fan-made rules for yet? Sounds like it's time for you to get busy putting that right

I wish those hobbits weren't wearing shoes. I was going to buy that whole range till I realized they had on shoes. I'm actually quite positive about them wearing shoes, because it makes them convertible into Gnomes and other similarly short creatures that don't have big furry feet. My main pet hate about that range is the stupid-looking dog riders. If I were to convert those Halflings into Gnomes I'd have to replace those steeds with mounts that can actually be taken seriously. That is fair but I want hobbits dang it!

Yeah those are more my speed, wish they had a few other options but the boxes are cheap enough for some kit bashing I suppose. Ah now this and wargame atlatic might just about round me out thanks.

I’m a big fan of the rooster riders from: theassaultgroup.co.uk/product-category/fantasy/halfling-militia/Westfalia miniatures also do a good range of halflings. Ttcombat also do a full army range

Also anticipating getting the dang starter for a certain sci fi game everyone seems intent on playing.

I doubt GW will release Warhammer: The Old World in 2023. There just isn't enough hype. Yes, GW have increased the frequency of articles promoting the game. But not nearly enough. This time last year they were full on promoting the upcoming Horus Heresy release. And just look at the metric crap ton of hype already revealed for 40K 10th edition. If WH:TOW was releasing this summer, we would know about it.
Maybe after 40K 10th edition drops this summer, GW will go full court press hyping WH:TOW. Then release the game in late fall of 2023. I don't know. That is certainly not the usual time of year for GW to release a game. So I doubt it. AoS seems certain to occupy the summer 2024 slot. Maybe we have to wait until summer 2025 for WH:TOW?
What do people think? I'd love to be wrong.

New rumours from Natfka via Redditmore Stuff about Warhammer The Old World; New Base for new produced and sold Sets; -25mm - small Infantry -30mm - larger Infantry -60mm - monstrous Infantry, -30mmx60mm - Cavalry There will be no rules for base measures, you can use your old models with their old bases. You even could use rebased Models with Movement trays for round bases. Launch Set will be (as said) Empire vs. Orcs Bretonnia and Khemri were previews to show "those factions are not forgotten, we will bring complete new Stuff for them!" Khemri will get the biggest range overhauls Some older Models will return to production First (6) Factions to get releases will be Empire > Orcs & Goblins > Chaos > Kislev > Bretonnia > Dwarfs I don't know how much I believe, and those that I do believe (the base change) I'm not too fond of.

I wouldn't put any stock in rumours unless they're actually based on what GW itself has publicly said, or from someone with a long-established track record of knowing what's going on (such as Warseer's old Hastings/Harry).
I remember before AoS launched there were loads of attention seeking trolls spreading rumours about what would happen, the vast majority of which turned out to be utterly incorrect. Natfka is not, and ever has been, a reliable source of information.

New rumours from Natfka via RedditNew Base for new produced and sold Sets; -25mm - small Infantry -30mm - larger Infantry -60mm - monstrous Infantry, -30mmx60mm - Cavalry Increasing bases sizes would be a mistake. I understand it might happen because bigger models sell better (to children at least). But increasing the monstrous infantry base from 40mm to 60mm is completely ridiculous. The area of a 60mm base is 225% the area of a 40mm base (3600 square mm vs 1600 square mm). How large are new ogres, minotaurs, trolls, etc. going to be? Even a 50mm base is enormous. Demigryph knights are on a 50x75mm base and there is too much open space. They should really be on 40x60mm bases. I hope these rumors are BS.
