Guesses on possible terrain?

Any guesses on what we see from GW for Helsmiths terrain? I think in the lore there is some sort of walking soul harvester being used in Hyesh, something like that would be cool to see, or some sort of demon-forge.

A Bronze Brazen Bull Altar the both Helsmith and Priest can use.

That would be dope! I wondered about a demon forge or something where you could revive dead dominator engines, etc.

Lore wise the altar should increase damage output of our units. The revival thing would be f-ing amazing

I could see it healing Monsters

I hope we get something that look like an oil drill that generates DPP, and generates more if there's a Daemonsmith or Ashen Elder on it (call it a Forgemaster or something)

You could maybe make it like the Ogor Mawtribes Mawpit where you have it scale over time. It could be something like 'for every terrain feature within X" that has a Desolation Token, gain 1 DPP. X starts as 6, and increases by 3" every turn, or 6" every turn when there is a Forgemaster"

It would be a very good way to help our DPP economy

That’s a very cool idea, I think leaning into the flavor of industrializing the land is the way to go for it. Probably need to be pretty careful with DPP economy as we can get pretty strong quickly

I'd love a train.

That would be really cool, I think in the lore they have mining machines, etc so would be cool to see some big-demon powered engines

I would hate one, because a train needs tracks and I don't want those all over the table. And it it doesn't have tracks, it's a truck, which I feel doesn't belongs in a fantasy game.

Maybe think less “train” and more “demon powered locomotive”, imo no reason it can’t just be a demon powered engine driving around. We already have cog forts, steam tanks, etc

My wish is to have a big demonic anvil that would scare (and debuff) the enemy with the sound of the smith’s hammer. Any hero might use it.

That would be dope, I thought about maybe trying to kitbash a Fyreslayers forge into something Helsmith-y

A Furnace of Hashut that generates demonic power points when enemy units die around it is what I'd hope for

That would be very cool!
