That transfer sheet is a thing of beauty. I might redo my banners to make use of some of them. My shopping list is looking like: - Arcane Journal
- Transfer sheet
- Lord on shieldbearers
- Thane with handgun
- Goblin Hewer

Looks like an awesome release. I love the new Ungrim and glad to see the Goblin Hewer back!

Looks like the "speculation" on reddit about slayer units as mercenaries were correct after all; said the slayer pirates didn't make it though. Those "Dwarf Mercenaries", I'll take both the command group and the troops.

Finally!
I agree, that transfer sheet is absolutely golden. It'll be expensive as all GW transfer sheets are, but this and those for Bretonnians and Greenskins have been a much-needed masterstroke. I'm looking forward to seeing if GW release a Beastmen one eventually.
Interesting to see the Doomseekers crop up as Mercenaries, and I can see the 'Imperial' Dwarfs being Mercenaries for both Dawi and Empire. Finally Dwarfs get a spear-armed unit! I look forward to seeing how I can kitbash some non-Imperial versions to field as a counts-as unit in my Dwarf army.
As someone whose first Dwarf army book was the 4th Edition one (given to me long after 4th had ended, but still a hugely inspirational read for 10-year-old me), I love seeing all the characterful 4th Edition Slayer and spear-armed Dwarf poses return (plus some I don't remember being in the product list of the book). I have a couple of the metal Slayers and the standard bearer for the 'Imperial' Dwarfs, given to me alongside the 4th book, some 4th Edition Hammerers and Bugman and his Brewers.

I need to build up my Skaven army and pick up some of the new AOS sculpts, but these Dwarf plastic kits and the battalion box are making my "buy now" finger twitch something fierce.

www.warhammer-community.com/2024/07/18/old-world-almanack-the-lore-of-the-dwarfen-mountain-holds/Danny: Burlock Damminson is our third character, and he is the one who reaches out to other holds to inform them that there’s going to be an attempt to reclaim Khazid Vosk. It’s the Slayer Hold who answer the call. Alongside all these wonderful Engineers Guild contraptions, there’s a host of Slayers – and Ungrim is on his way.
One of the things people know about Burlok is that he nearly got kicked out of the guild on a number of occasions for being a bit wild in his youth. What we’ve got here is, well, experimental Burlock. He is field-testing inventive weapons. He famously loses an arm at some point in his adventures – and both of the weapons the new model is carrying certainly look as though they could blow off a limb…
While we knew the character was in the book, I don't think we'd had confirmation before of a model for Burlock Damminson - it's not been shown off at least?

Maybe they got confused with one of the classic engineer miniatures? Anyways, I'd actually love it if they re-release the old pewter miniatures for Burlok and Kragg, I dunno, just call them Classic Master Engineers or something.

Not yet - and neither has the new Thorgrim model. They'll likely come out alongside the second wave alongside the Cannon/Organ Gun, Gyrocopter/Gyrobomber and Miners kits, or be future releases like Gorduz Backstabber and the Bretonnian Baron character we haven't seen yet.

No new models shown? That's a surprise.
I have much of this already, while the old Ogres/Trolls don't appeal. I've got the new plastic Chaos Chosen, which rank up fine on 30mm bases.
The Skin Wolves are tempting - though the Games Day exclusive Skin Wolf was the best one they made. The Warpfire Dragon is cool too... The Gigantic Spawn is underwhelming. GW makes much better spawn in plastic for various 40k kits these days.

I didn't note this on the Arcane Journal:
"two special characters including Galrauch the Great Drake, seven new unit profiles, two Armies of Infamy – the marauding Wolves of the Sea and the mounted Heralds of Darkness"
I'd love a new Galrauch model, but really doubt that's happening.

While I am quite disappointed that the AJ isn't going to include a list for mono-god, given that one of them is clearly norscan and the other is centered around mounted stuff I'm hoping that we'll finally get some Kurgan and Hung love.
