Is Tzeentch Incoming? Signs Pointing to YES?

The Changer of Ways is coming and his arrival may be imminent, or is it? Maybe. It’s probable that we’ll see new Tzeentch releases soon. Possibly. Come see that change that may be coming..

We’ve already seen the pictures of the the monstrous Archaon model that is coming hot on the heels of Betrayal at Calth.

regarding it’s arrival time: I “think” week after HH.

Looking at it some more I quite like the heads of the “dragon” or whatever it’s meant to be, in fact if I were still into GW some of these would be fantastic for Daemon prince conversions.

Archaon himself doesn’t really look good to me. What I do find strange is the absence of slaanesh pretty much everywhere, but on Archaon’s Shield I can clearly make out the slaanesh symbol along with the other 3.

Also for the keywords on his rules it says “Chaos, Daemon, Mortal Khorne, Nurgle, SLAANESH, Tzeentch, Everchosen” so it would appear Slaanesh is not totally gone.

In fact having now had a good long look I think this almost looks like a resposed Mutalith Beast or whatever it was called, but with 2 tails, wings and 3 heads.

There is a picture where he is fighting some liza…. seraphon so I guess there might be a campaign book or whatever they’re called.

So it’s Dorghar… weird…

And we’ve been hearing for months of Tzeentch getting the next release slot for Chaos after the last year of Khorne stuff.  The Lord of Change is said to be wrapped up and on ice, only awaiting it’s release schedule, said to be before the end of the year – post Betrayal of Calth.

Finally there has bene talk to a Tzeentch centered campaign tome for Age of Sigmar containing all the new goodies – also coming in the next quarter or so.

This just showed up today from Warseer’s very solid and reliable Darnok:

“There is a couple of special Chaos Knights following Archaon, as well as a Tzeentch character. A Battle Tome to go with all of them as well.

And there is more for AoS in January…”
