Ist Aqshy nicht das Realm wo alles anfängt? (Also “gates of azyr“? ) da sind in den Geschichten nämlich Menschen unterwegs, welche früher dort gesiedelt haben sollen...

Thunderscorn are Dragon Ogres... I mean Dragon Ogors... Well that sure doesn't sound like a big faction.
Anyway I'll dig deeper into it later today when I have the time, assuming I do not freeze to death.

So there is definitely fluff in the book. I which quantity I can't tell but apparently each faction will get at least one or two pages of fluff. In addition the book goes deeper when it comes to some of them. For example Slaanesh Hosts have 24 pages for themselves. The surviving followers of Slaanesh are now separated between Pretenders, Seekers and Invaders. Each have their own specific way of either venerating or aiming to replace Slaanesh.
If you wonder if Slaanesh followers are now more PG13, here is an excerpt from a page called "Unbound Revel", at least what I can read without a microscope:
"Counted among the most powerful of the Invaders, the Keeper of Secrets Xia'slae'shesos is dedicated utterly to the expression of his most twisted urges upon mortal flesh. He has surrounded himself with an army of degenerate pleasure seekers, whom he leads in monstrous rampages across the realms"
Still from what I get, you shall not expect vast and deep fluff or side stories.

From what I see, background pages have color artwork, Warscrolls have the pictures of the models.
There are 15 Warscrolls Battalions in the book on top of the 158 regular Warscrolls. The only one I've seen in the WD are:
- Clan Skryre (too big to describe, it's a whole army with lot of special rules)
- Blood Host of Khorne (1 Bloodthirster + 7 or more units of Khorne Daemons in any combinations, in the hero phase pick D3 units that are within 3" of enemy models, they can pile in and attack with one weapon. Pick D6 units instead if there are 16 or more units in the Battalion)
Blood Host is accompanied by fluff regarding the way armies of Khorne are structured (for all of their savagery they actually have a very rigid structure). Right below Khorne are the Bloodthirsters of the Anger Incandescent Host. Each command 8 BT from the tiers below, each of them in turn commanding 8 BT from the tiers below and so on. I don't know if this is already fluff we know from old Army Books/Codexes but just in case here are the 8 hosts in order:
1- Anger Incandescent
2- Seething Fury
3- Wrath of Khorne
4- Apoplectic Ire
5- Infernal Outrage
6- Insensate Rage
7- Executionner of Khorne
8- Unfettered Fury

Something about slaves of darkness. So maybe some articles, models or repackaging for WoC? Don't quote me on that I'm just trying to guess what they meant, plus the English teasers tend to be written differently than ours.
Brite?! Es gibt doch keine zwei unterschiedlichen englischsprachigen WDs, oder? :huh:English teasers tend to be written differently than ours
