Wow! Looking good, still say they need to make the horses look less hokey.

That stuff is crazy! Snake riders? Freaking Gianormous Sphinx rhinocerous? Nagas on chariot bases? A King mounted on a honking War Sphinx Cat? Hahaha ridonculous!
The Tombguard looked nice with the halberd option!
If GW has to one up itself every time a new book comes out in 8ed, watch out! The Brets will get landsharks with lazer beam eyes and a Trebuchet of ultimate doom that throws actual hills onto units and creates terrain where ever the shot lands! hahah
Insane-o. I am not saying I don't like it, but just... insane-o.

All this really does for me is make me excited for Ogres which are supposedly next.
Naga / Snake riders with knights pooping on their heads - Not overly interested in as TK but maybe for conversion possibilities.

I was pleasantly surprised by how awesome these models look. I haven't been too excited by recent minis (except maybe that giant spider), but these make me want to start a TK army.

I'm really jazzed about the idea of having some more interesting models in TK armies.
I feel as though the models in the current book are very samey and this new one provides a huge variety.
TK armies will definately look much better spread out on the battle field now.

As a long time TK player the new models are really growing on me. It will definitely be nice to have some variety.

I really like the fact that developed the golem-like aspect of the army. That set them neatly apart of the vampire counts. Skeletons at 4 pts  VC players must be frustrated. Can't wait to get my hand on the book. The Cobra knights model have a total of 5 attacks (3 poison + 2 KB >>> sweet), how does it work for the second rank for monstrous cav and the knight himself (3+1 or 1+1)  Cheers Bros, T-Bro |

Ok ok I ll answer my own question It was FAQed recently: the knight swings full strength and the Cobra has no support attack  SO 6 of these beasts would ditch 12/13 S5 (i assume 4+1) with KB and 9 S??? poison attack + 3 stomp A, I reckon. Please corr3ect me if I am wrong. Cheers |
