Also, Bonegrinder giant only ever had rules in an expansion previously (Monstrous Arcanum) Nitpicking nerd here... the Bonegrinder Giant rules were in Storm of Magic, not in Monstrous Arcanum.

I'm sure our goblin overlord KevinC will be very happy about this one. I can't wait to test out this Troll army. ---------------Oh yeah! Super excited. It's like they scanned my brain before writing this Goblin arcane journal!! I'm hoping the second special character is a Goblin/Hobgoblin wolf rider khan!!

Great correction, I couldn't remember off the top of my head and took a stab without looking at my books. 50% chance and I rolled a 3 rather than a 4+ 😀

If it is, I really hope he's sculpted to match the new "AoS" goblin wolf riders, not the old WFB ones. I kind of get the reasons they're trying to keep product ranges separate (which seems to involve not showing Night Goblins, and I have no idea how they'll deal with Gors when we get to Beastmen), but the AoS wolf riders are amazing sculpts, and fit perfectly on cavalry bases, and they're what I think most people will buy.

I don't understand why. But look at the legend armies...they have FULL ranges in AOS (with a lot of models being former WFB): Lizardmen, Skaven, Ogre Kingdoms, Daemons of Chaos, and Vampire Counts. Dark Elves have a large range in AOS too. The only legend army that doesn't have a lot of models out there is Chaos Dwarfs.

This is an interesting development... it is cool other factions can use these units. But I wish they were in their own Dogs of War book. I don't like them being in one faction's specific book.

Do we actually know that those are from the Greenskin Arcane Journal rather than from something else, such as a Dogs of War-focused Arcane Journal or a free pdf?

Both of those units are announced to be in the O&G Arcane Journal. So I'm pretty sure the above screenshots are from that. But I certainly have my fingers-crossed for a dedicated Dogs of War book at some point.

Fair point, I totally spaced on that.

I definitely want the Stone Trolls. I only ever picked up one of them, and I love the models. The River Trolls are cool too, but I'm happy with the newer plastic kit, which I feel does their legacy justice. I've got the Black Orc Boss already. The Marauder Giant and Shaman on Wyvern aren't models I'm interested in owning.

I too only have one of those Stone Trolls and would love to get my hands on more. When I imagine the concept of a Warhammer model, it's always one of them that comes to my mind.
