just a very quick colour test with photoshop
Yeah the Thunderseers only having Crush 1 is kind of weird, especially next to the profile for the spellcaster with 2.

More hit than miss on the miniatures in my opinion.
Some of the character models leave me cold. My decades old hate of that style more than anything - especially the silly oversized weapons.
The beast miniatures I think weāll be seeing heavily featured in many a conversion. Some of them are top notch disregarding - again my personal taste - the riders.
Includes some shots of the new orc sprues - Mr Subtle has definitely left the building!

The evil tortoise (or stag beetle?) seems out of place
(looks too insectoid - more of a sci-fi vibe especially with the electricity)
Yeah, that bug is strange choice. They should made lightning elemental instead.
I love these manticores! Now I donāt know why I donāt like the cav versionā¦
My issue may be that I havenāt seen them all ranked up together.
Iām already digging up lightning beasts to replace it 
Alternate bugs are very easy to find, but I really like the elemental angle and that feels more relevant.
Preorder in, should be with me on Thurs 11th (nannyogg999). Interested to see the updates and lists in their entirety. Bought the book as I thought it would be too difficult to absorb the changes via EasyArmy.
As theyāre bulky, squished together all you get is a wall of shoulder pads/armour - I reckon theyād look a ton better with a touch of space between the minis.
Building Arkhanās manticore and converting it into a chimera was one of my first big hobby projects. He got a head swap and became a Dark Elf sorcerer.
Over at -28, a preview of the Riftforged Orcs
Copied from KCKings of War summary:
Also mentioned for Undead:
Lycanis gain a unique upgrade option for an Aura (Slayer (Melee d3) ā Beast Only)
Ghoul Ghast gain an option for Aura (Thunderous Charge (1) ā Cannibal only)
Some point drops for Undead Dragon options
Lady Ilona drops to 250 points from 280
Which means, I have a good reason to finish my Ghoul horde and build a Lycanis for my Werewolf horde.
I got my book. (cos i live in the future
so let me know if you guys really need to know anything. Iām pretty impressed by the content and lore so far.
Iād like to know Everything, with a side of is the Elf King in the Sylvan Kin formation mounted or not? 
What is that super cool new Elven formation? 
I think youāll love it since you use the exact models, its a drakon lord and 2 drakon regiments which get nimble! Drakon lords got 10 pts cheaper too.
Not mounted but heās speed 7 with 7 attacks!
Oh sweet, so Iām not mounting my coolest Lord miniature to my Gladestalker baseā¦
thatās what I was hoping for! Hell yeah, hope my book crosses the sea soon.
