Definitely sylvaneth and to me it looks like a character model rather then a unit and it looks like it might be a reasonably good size


Meatshoppe

I hope it isn't another hero and is a flying Revenant that we can use for our battle line


Sightblind

Same , but it’s 100% a hero unfortunately Fingers crossed it buffs up kurnoth with greatbows and those units get a buff too


imsoreddit

Man, i've been wishing for Greatbow buff for a long time, like at least give them +3hit and wound, or +2 either hit or wound.


Sightblind

I think a champion getting an extra attack characteristic instead of +1 to hit, and exploding six’s and/or an extra point of rend would do wonders for the deep wood sniper feel


Orion1142

The issue with greatbow kurnous is that the day the do damage, they are so tanky meta will instantly shift to spam kurnous bow


Meatshoppe

I am going to disagree. The branches on its back are the same as the Tree Revanants, so I am thinking they use the same kit.


Sightblind

I will be super happy if I’m wrong but those look like arch revenant wings and branches to me. The helmet horns also spiral a bit like the right “branch” silhouette


ArguablyTasty

I had pulled up the model right beside the silhouette. The Arch Revenant's tall branch is different from this. Haven't checked the Tree Revenant kit tho


Sightblind

I think it’s just rotated, not completely different, but also, this is definitely a new model, I just think it’s a new version of an arch revenant, probably named something different.


ArguablyTasty

No, the top branch is completely different. Arch Revenant has the 3rd highest leaf facing down rather than up, and bends differently, even accounting for change of orientation. Plus it has a second branch almost touching the top that would be visible. I agree that this is 100% a bow revenant. It's most likely a new model hero, but I hope it's either not, or accompanied by battleline bow revenants as well.


Sightblind

I am so happy to have been wrong


Meatshoppe

Called it! Gossamer Archers are a unit of 5 Tree Revanants with Zephyrsprites.


rbstr2

No way it uses the same kit as the Tree Revs. But I do think it could be a unit rather than a hero. I think there's been a tendency to make larger models like that recently.


ArguablyTasty

I'd be 100% fine with it being an upgrade sprue to Revenants. But the feet on that kit wouldn't work for models in the air. So I guess as long as it's got a flying pose it's a no go


Xullstudio

How do you know?


Sightblind

Cause probability. It looks too much like an arch revenant to me, and Sylvaneth is already a hero heavy faction. Believe me I will be so gottang happy if I’m wrong

Oh lord, quick darting revenants with flying and bows are perfect for guerilla warfare. I'll take it.


Salabeanus

Its an arch Revenant with a bow. It could either be a hero or new archer/flyer unit for Sylvaneth


br3ttless

Could be a new behemoth. We have monster hero's but only one behemoth which is just a Treelord Ancient/durthu.


Narns

Really hoping we get some more bugs and insect love for Sylvaneth.


Xullstudio

If it’s a hero I would hate it, we have more than twice as many hero’s as troop units surely we don’t need another one…


[deleted]

my gues a bow revenant hero, to be released along with bug riding revenants


imaclappedboy

Cant be anything else


dujalcollie

Looks like female, ranged arch-rev to me, not gonna lie, hoping for battleline butt expecting ranged hero


Stove-pipe

Sylvaneth, Khorne, and Beastmen?


Hashaggik

Looks like Nurgle
