So there are the current
rumours for Age of Sigmar. It seems RADICALLY DIFFERENT. And ALL THE ARMY BOOKS ARE BEING PULLED JULY 26th! So get your stuff while you can.
I for one hope they are not true, but if they are, I can see myself finally acquiring my lizardman army off of ebay pretty easily and playing a bunch of oldhammer.
Anywho, here is my analogy:
(BTW this is humour, and done to illustrate the absurdity of the new AoS rumours IMOHO).
This year not only sees the re-envisioning of one classic world of geekdom (Warhammer) but another as well.
I am talking about Star Wars.
Now the trailers are out for this and it seems that we are in safe hands. But what if JJ Abrams decided to
1- Make sexy, lithe female Wookies and call them
Wogs. (wikipedia link)

| "We don't serve their kind here!" |
2- Decide that droids aren't important any more. He can't get rid of them, but pushes them as far from the limelight as possible
3- Renamed the Millenium Falcon the Eagle 5 and made it a Winnebago.
4- Decided that there should no long be a light side and a dark side to the force, but instead a Rainbow of Force, so you can be ROYGBIV aligned, and even mix and match!
5- Renames everything we know. Coruscant is now Metro-neo-oplis, and Mandolorians are now Mercenarinites and they have gods known as the War-four (because there are four of them)
6- A bunch of stuff that seems oddly like Star Trek, Battlestar Galatica, and Firefly just works its way in. Plus a lot of lens flare.
7- AND ALL OF THIS IS KEPT UNDER WRAPS UNTIL THE WEEK BEFORE RELEASE!!!
