>>93138507>TQImprisonment was too good for them. They should have gone further.
>>93138525Me with Tzeench Mainly because he’s boring
Man, I really hope Be'lakor does something cool this edition. He was AWESOME in the Broken Realms Saga and I think both Be'lakor and the Legion of the First Prince are super cool, so I hope they don't get dumped in the bin and forgotten about by GW.(Like they did with him in 3rd)
>TQI like the way how Slaanesh was handled in aos, better to keep a god in a cage than mishandle the potential something like that has and do nothing with it like in 40k.
>no /aos/You FOOL
>>93138535Man, I really hope Malerion does something cool this edition.
>>93138507You fucked up the subject line. The thread has no title.
I thought 'Siege of Greenspire' was a pretty great AoS story. Fun plot, interesting characters, good action and an amazing look into what life is like for the soldiers of the Cities of Sigmar (including Non-Humans!) so here ya go.https://files.catbox.moe/coz1s5.epub
>>93138587Same, anon. Same.
>The first thing you'll learn about the folk of Tempest's Eye is that they live upon the flanks of Titanspear Mountain, the final sentinel against the barbarians of the Brimstone Peninsula. The second is that each of them acts like they've got a titan's spear lodged up their backside. They're oh-so-proud of the trade that passes through their sky-docks and the precision of their Aetherguard regiments. Course, if the rest of us had mountaintop orreries drinking in star-prophecies night and day and the example of the vaunted Tempest Lords to follow, I'm sure we'd be able to muster that level of foresight too. Not that it stopped the ratmen hitting Tempest's even before everything went up in smoke, though. They torpedoed half the city out of existence, and rumour has it that they're climbing higher up the mountain's innards each day, even if the Aetherguard are making them pay for each level they take. Gronti, from the steelworks, insists that some Exodus Hosts got out before things got really bad. but when you're an Aqshian, you know how easy a candle can blow out.HEY HAMMERHAL IT WOULD HAVE BEEN SUPER COOL IF YOU HAD SENT THAT GIANT CRUSADER FORCE TO LIFT THE SIEGE INSTEAD OF FOUNDING A HOVEL TOWN IN THE MIDDLE OF NOWHERE HA HA HA HA WOULDN'T THAT HAVE BEEN FUNNY
>>93138587So is he actually fused with his dragon now or something? Is there any official art of him besides that picture? Is it like a centaur type deal or serpentine one?
>>93138597It's a different hing but I suppose you could check out The Red Hours if you haven't. It's got a similar premise in that it's a novella set in a fortress outpost where colorful characters gather.
I have two island of blood sets of Skaven somewhere.Is it worth ordering a shitload of round bases and trying to make an AoS force out of them or are they not worthwhile?
>>93138645Thanks for the suggestion, anon! I'll check it out.
>>93138646If you mix them in with the new clanrats they blend pretty well.
>>93138646Variety can't hurt, right? Also if you like the models it's always a good idea.Not sure about 2 boxes worth though
>>93138587Interesting how the old leaks seem to have correctly predicted Dawnbringers and Chorfs so far but there's neither hide nor hair of Malerion who was supposedly going to happen between the two.
Any rumblings on the future for Dwarfs in Age of Sigmar?Is there any hope for more traditional Dwarfs are are we stuck with being a footnote in Cities of Sigmar?
>>93138670Too many elves. They know people need a break.We also have like 3 more Lumineth waves first.
>>93138507>TQI like the idea of Slaanesh but I'd replace the 1 boob thing with 2(+) boobs and a bulgeOn *all* their models
>>93138680It's over.
>>93138638He's a shadow. His whole being resists any attempt to corporealize. He's able to create a physical body for himself with a lot of effort and seething, but his natural state is just a shadow.
>>93138680This model is so fucking RETARDED.I hate it.
>>93138680dwarfs are not going to be a footnote in cos either
>>93138705>actually supported by 3 Dwarfs this time with handlesFar improved over the original.
>>93138680I love this guy, reminds me of pic related.
>>93138597A GOOD CoS story? And it has non-humans?! I'll give it a look, thanks manling.
>>93138680Im so happy they made more than 2 dudes carry him, but im still convinced that there should be 4 of them
>>93138704That's just Be'lakor with extra steps
>>93138719People meme on this guy but he's actually the only decent pose in that set. It's the rest of the vulkite berzerkers that look like pudgy flailing babies throwing tantrums while the captain T poses to assert dominance
>>93138714Is AoS 4 back to indexhammer?
>>93138747Filtered
>>93138752YesIndexes out in a week
>>93138752Yes.
>>93138763Is indexhammer really an improvement on having an out of date codex?
>>93138760Say whatever you need to to cope
>>93138778Chad.
>>93138778Holy shit, this whole unit is terrible. In fact, I think the whole army sort of sucks, which my 11 year old self wouldn't believe.
>>93138680If COS actually gets a 2nd reresh where its a mix of regular dwarves and elves, I would be very happy.
>>93138788Hopefully they replace them, the warcry band might be a sign of things to come.
>remembering I bought the Dominion box and it's been setting with grey plastic and a basically unopened rulebook for 3 yearsWhere the fuck did the time go
>>93138638That is a stupid interpretation of that art that some loretuber talked about and the idiot community ran with it as being canon. He is a shadow being that can change form at will, he prefers to be that of an elf clad in black armor. He is closer to being the Hat Man than he is to being fused with his dragon.
>>93138798>>93138778The quality difference between these is actually insane.
>>93138798Now with 50% more fat women!
>>93138820I wish we got to see more of Chamon beyond the Spiral Crux. For basically being nothing but a load of sub-Realms and tiny worlds/lands adrift within the Realm Sphere, they show very little of it.
>>93138813One's a kit with many swapable heads and arms and other extra bits. The other's monopose. There's a good reason why they are the way they are. They also look fine and have plenty of detail in person.
>>93138646All of it holds up great, unless you prefer old world no reason not to
>>93138831A fair bit is written about the Sky Shoals since that's where the Drekki Flynt stories are set.
>>93138646Skaven definitely.Highelves maybe less so, you could run them as Lumineth but you might be better off keeping them on squares and having a TOW army if there's a scene for that where you are.
>>93138872Oh? Cool. Might check it out. I love the Realm of Metal.
>>93138646I want a seaguard reimagining for idoneth
>>93138893I want literally anything new for Idoneth
>>93138768The alternative is not playing with an outdated book, it's not playing at all because all previous books are invalidated by core rules changes.Updating every army to have a set of current rules is the only way for all the armies to be playable in this kind of edition change.
I want a new Helstrider kit that's basically Myrmidesh Painbringers on Exalted Seekers.And a Lord of Pain on Exalted Seeker. If GW gives me those I'll built a Knights of Slaanesh list.
>>93138820damn beastman vale still?
>>93138778
>>93138930Nobody cares enough to rename it.
Is Khorne finally going to be fun this edition, or shall he remain dull?
>>93138930Beastmen are still in the lore. Just not in the game.
>>93138825>Breathe deep the vapours of thy sacred flame.Are they telling people to huff smoke?
>>93138962khorne is fun as fuck what are you talking about?
>>93138680The Old world models are going away nothing on whether or not a refresh is coming but the index include them and tule promates intermixing speciesThey got a mention in the new Rulebook strangely making them part of the Ironweld>"The Dispossessed reinforce the armies with clanking, piston legged cogforts and impenetrable shieldwalls, their natural ability in architecture vital for ensuring new strongpoints weather the unforgiving landscape."expect either Dispossessed gone and the Ironweld adding in more dwarfs to their ranks
>>93138983NTA, but they did seem autistic to try and get to work.
>>93138998I just want the Star Trek Federation where people are fine hanging out with people who are in no way like them.
>>93139061Christ I hated Morn. Dude never shut up and just chatted about the most boring shit in every scene.
>>93138998>strangely That’s not strange considering they e always been
>>93138998>part of the IronweldThats actually really interesting, considering how much cockforts were teased, they are bound to show up in the 2nd wave, given that connection, probably together with some dawi engineers then?
>Ironjawz>Kruleboyz>Ogorsno BonesplitterzDispossessed, Scourge Privateer, Darkling covens (whom they say help the navy now??) & even Dragon ogres get a mention
>>93139155Scourge Privateers and Darkling covens have always aided the City of Sigmar military. Hell, the Scourge make up the bulk of Excelsis' navy. Given the influence and control the Darkling Covens have over the people of the Cities, I imagine they would "aid" the navy sometimes... though only when doing so benefits them, of course.
>>93138825Did Shyish turn into Made in Abyss?
>>93139155Any maggotkin fluff mentioned somewhere?
>>931385872 more editions, trust the plan
>>93139155>Scourge Privateer, Darkling covens (whom they say help the navy now??)Oh hell yeah. Dark Elf pirates granted legitimacy by Sigmar's Cities is one of the coolest, most evocative ideas in the lore. I would be happy to see the old regular DE units go the way of the dodo if it meant locking in Scourge Privateers as a permanent part of CoS with new kits.
>>93139401It is still so bizarre to me that they don't have a proper dark elf faction considering how massively popular they were in fantasy battle. I mean, I guess they technically have three different ones in AoS but none of them are really quite the correct flavor.
>>93139458I kinda think that when they were first figuring out the setting they were like, OK we took the newest Wood Elf and Dark Elf models and spun those off into their own armies, we've got some ideas for expanding those. We have a solid idea for a new take on High Elves, and the Idoneth are a totally new spin on elves, that's great. Oh and of course we should do something with Malerion.And "do something with Malerion" has just been on the board for years and nobody has had a really good idea what that something should be yet
What everyone working on for the weekend? I'm building some piggus
>>93139544Guaranteed that's exactly what's happened.Both DoK and IDK are the morally ambiguous yet still good guy elves, DoK also have shadow motifs too, makes it hard to give him something unique. IMO give DoK some more units and focus more on murder/blood and pull back a little shadow stuff, make Malerion pure shadow and his guys are steadfastly loyal to Sigmar
>>93139723Still working on this deathleaper, today I was out so no further painting done yet.
>>93139754I like the honeycomb pattern, tho wrong thread I think fren
>>93139723what are these for and from?
>>93138962Skullgrinders hands down one of the coolest designs in BOK
>>93139820Going to put goblins on them to use as snarlfang riders, they're the oop savage boar boy kit tho
>>93139842oh I see, nice.
>>93139723Nearly done my maggotkin spearhead box.. just the two flyers left now. Pic is the blightkings.
>>93139723Painting arms out of commission for the time being but I did pull the trigger on the fec/nurgle fusion army I was thinking about. Got these plus 2x morbheg knights and a GUO on the way
>>93138507>How do you feel about Slaanesh?For me it's Tzeentch but Slaani is fun. I don't like the fandom woombification of her, but in concept, she's a good faction.
>>93139544Should move scourge privateers over to malerion aelves and just make the whole faction pirate aelves
>>93138802The coof broke everyone's concept of the passing of time. Shit goes by at lightspeed now
>>93138768Yeah cause everything will be balanced against the current rules and not balanced against rules that haven't come out yet. Things will still be unbalanced but not as bad as when you get halfway through an edition
>>93139996not always. index launch of 10th was possibly the most broken warhammer has ever been.
>>93139968Do they get a narrative event where they steal Har-Kuron back?
Is it bad I want another Dominion to occur? I want to pick up the constituent parts for cheap.
>>93140096no im kinda in the same boat. I could convert those rat ogres into nurgle stuff.
>>93140096>>93140118people have been waiting for Skaven for ages. One of the articles suggested that the rat ogre kit in the box will have build options. If that's the case people are gonna be buying that box for the Ogres alone.
>>93140132oh.. so my stormcast will be cheap then? good news for me.
>>93139798Eh, I post aos stuff on /40k/ sometimes too. I dont mind.
AI shit, but bone splittaz could have been greathttps://x.com/RogueScholarMDC/status/1804510098783433208
>>93140211Completely missing the point.
>>93139968I'm convinced that an upcoming storybeat will be another race war against the CoS elves that causes the Scourge Privateers and Darkling covens to leave the Cities and join Malerion.Provides an excuse to squat the old Warhammer models, introduce Malerion and they can redesign the elves that chose to stick with CoS into the new dawnbringer aesthetic.
Anyone got that WHFB skaven heraldry book?trying to plan for the new box set.
>>93139723Working on my flayed Daemonettes still. Beach camping tonight, so no progress ‘til tomorrow. Did highlighting and some shade wash after this pic, so I just need to assemble and base before sealing and blood’ing them up.
>>93140274https://files.catbox.moe/3fwitl.pdf
>>93140258>next story beat is new dark elf kits for CoS, complete with new twintailed comet and hammer iconography moulded in
>>93140424I think CoS elves will lean into pirate/privateers asthetic, leaving purple spikes for tricornes
>>93140258How do they all just suddenly 'leave' when the cities are their sanctuaries and homes in the hell lands of realms?
>>93140481Because anon really wants a shitty dark elf copy faction that's not the gynocracy of the DoK.
>>93140383Thanks friend
>>93140383I've never seen this, but it's an interesting read just flipping through before I dig in. How old is it?
>>931406632011
I NEED THOSE INDEXES NOW GW AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
>>93141049Same. The preview for my army didn't cover any of the units I use currently, so I'd like to know if I should be disappointed or not. I guess it'll be on pre-order day? Is that when 40k 10th released theirs?
>>93141049I am nervous about weapon teams and gutter runners. Unless the index is flagged with a legacy tag of some sort to highlight squattings, I don't think it'll help me out too much though.
>>93141067Everything getting squatted was already highlighted in the article we were doomposting about months ago
>>93141151Skaven and SCE where very vague in that article. It was "Some will be squatted and some will get refreshed. Stay tuned to find out hahaha"
>>93140211Average slop retard opinion, keep it to yourself next time
>>93138507Soon
>edition isn't even out yet and we already know what Chaos faction will replace Skaven as the real narrative threatthe state of ratfags
>>93141537>Age of ChaosChaos was the real threat>Age of DestructionChaos was the real threatAge of the RatChaos was the real threat>Age of NagashMorathi was the real threat
>>93141546How can the most stalwart ally of Sigmar be a threat?
>>93140132Nah, the ogres will be monopose. The separate release will have options
Why did Darkoath flop so badly?
>>93141563anon said morathi, not malerion
>>93141582Shit sculpts, shit rules, zero soul by going the niggversity hire multi culti horde route.
>surely this will help sell our faction
>>93140132>>93141576the ogres are monopose but you can swap around their handsmaybe the heads too if you're the tiniest bit cleverI don't think any of the units in the starter box is getting a multipart kit this time around
>>93141582Because it's racist to depict tribal people as bad guys now even if they are chaos. And it's sexist for minis to be sexy.If they actually wanted to sell darkoath they either needed to make them grimy roving murder rapist vikings like old marauders or super cheesecake barely clothed Conan red Sonja clones.Instead we got ugly diverse underdogs with a "church(sigmar) was actually the bad guys" narrative
Darkoath are based actually.
>>93141612no helmetsthey're ruined
>>93141612Look at what we lost
>>93141584>Malerion>Here, have an arena where you soldiers may fight each other>My job here is done!
>>93141611I disagree, I think its more because the gritty aesthetic isn't interesting anymore. You can make gritty dirty greenskins, chaos, or whatever and no one cares because its been done before.this is why kruelboyz aren't popular, this is also why Cities of Sigmar didn't start with some barley equipped dudes missing boots or why in other systems like the hours heresy they don't have models for the imperial milita. The people who want super gritty worn down models are a minority and likely the same people who bitched about iron jaws during 1e
>>93141612>female combatantsLol. Lmao even.
>>93141582How did you reach the conclusion it flopped?At the very least, I don't think anything coming out so close to the end of an edition is going to do too well
Someone's mad cause their rage thread got no traction
>>93141651Kruleboyz aren't popular because they replaced regular orcs with an aesthetic super heavily influenced by the orcs from the hobbit movies over the traditional goofy football hooligans aesthetic warhammer orcs are known for. Also their rules have sucker donkey dick so even less people want to smack themselves with a bill and guaranteed losses.
>>93141739Koolboyz are like 10 times more kino than reddit rats but sadly people are tastelets and good models don't get the love they deserveAlthough sometimes they're alright like when Darkoath flops
>>93139723finished the first flyboy and just going through this guy super fast thanks to contrast slop. gotta fix some rough areas then onto the wings and tactical rock>>93139873I'm also working on a spearhead (got two and glottkin for an easy army). good luck. it's tricky getting your brush into some of the spaces around the rider.
>>93141745I think they will become more popular in the 4th edition thanks to new rules. Solid rules and the relative ease of purchasing an army at good prices will be significant
I've used new Yndrasta in 3 games now and I'm telling you she better not be too expensive.In 2 games out of 3 she failed to kill her target (a carnosaur) and then just died.Which is a bit sad because a Carnosaur isn't exactly the most fearsome thing around with a 4+ save, 14 wounds and unreliable attacks.I'm worried bigger monsters will just take her hits and then murk her every time.I would price her about where she is now, which incidentally is about the same as the carnosaur is now as well.
>>93141855What did you rez with her? That's like half her value
>>93141870Yndrasta doesn't res anymore, she's now a monster killer autist both in lore and on her warscroll.I miss her old gameplay desu, I liked her being this figurehead spirit of victory type.
>>93141885How would you be playing games without knowing point costs
>>93141902Using the 3rd edition points, it's obviously not going to be balanced but it's a good way to learn 4th using what we have.
>>93141648Golem mommy
>>93141648>>93141937Does she hang the hammers off her nipples out of the armor?
This Tamurkhan art kind of seems familiar
>>93141954doesn't ring any bell to me
>>93141972Looks pretty Darkoathy to me
>>93141973no, it doesn't your eyes must be broken
>>93141995Ironic.Anon you are fucking boring. Next guy!
>>93142004can you put into words what part of that design looks "darkoathy" to you?specifically the part that's not just general chaos marauder flair
>>93142020I'm not playing tell me the obvious with you.
HH's campaign books are some of the best put out for any game currently supported by GW. It would be very cool if AoS got some campaign books like those.
>>93142056pale imitation of what they used to be
>>93138507>TQI think literally everybody else on this planet would be better than designing Slaanesh units than British. Why do Slaangors have pincers? Because – ho, ho, ho – CRABS. British sense of humour, fuck my arse. Anyways, somehow God of Nerds has the single sexiest unit in the game.
>>93142066Stop jerking off to ogroids.
>>93142056That would require someone who's legitmately passionate about the setting (lmao). Unfortunately for you, all you have is slopmasters fattening you up for harvest (the next bullshit box for you to by).
Sooooo... is there a full leak of the rulebook somewhere?
>>93141954wtf warhammer was always woke?! that's a sidecut
>>93142154https://imgur.com/a/aos-4e-core-rules-sorted-mhyyk Just core rules
>>93138507>How do you feel about Slaanesh?Well, I was thinking about being tied up to a cross with a barbed wire that sears my flesh as I struggle and being crucified head down so I don't die too quickly.
>>93142154There's an imgur album with all the rules in it. Check earlier threads for the link. If you're looking for fluff or whatever, browse youtube for influencers turning pages on camera.
>>93142245This thread isn't even half way done
>>93141682You still pretending you painted those high elves.
>>93142020a woman wearing random leather straps, pretty generic barbarian stuff
>>93142020can you put into words what part of that design doesn't look "darkoathy" to you?
>>93139723Yesterday I finally finished the base coats of my bone batch. Today we wash.
what sort of movement tray shapes would be good for nighthaunt? I don't think anyone is going to enjoy waiting for me to move 40+ models individually
>>93142418>what sort of movement tray shapes would be good for nighthaunt?regular?
Since it looks like every faction is going to get faction terrain, what do you expect your army to get and how will it work?Since I play DoK, my money is on a Morathi-Khaine statue that heals nearby units when models die near it and bolsters prayers.
>>93141582They just needed to make them more like the Warqueen and Chieftain.
>>93142451I mean like,ooooooooooor, ooooostuff like that, I've ssen a few different shapes
>>93139723Finished building everything I had so now I'm trying to do the bases for all of them, but I probably won't put too much work into them
I dont think GW did themselves a favor to let every content creator only play the same spearhead battles.
>>93141648It's so over.
>>93142066>Anyways, somehow God of Nerds has the single sexiest unit in the game.Hey, that's not the Verminlord.
>>93142493Christ I've used the swivel view in the webstore but it's only now that I notice she's got snake bites on her shoulder.
>>93142463the first for models that are run in units of 10, the second for models that are run in units of 5. Don't overthink it. Just go with a manufacturer that's affordable and has good reviews.
>>93141648>>93142493I like the little voiced promos they put out for Warcry in its first few years. They're irrelevant to the game but the voiceovers help get me in the mood for painting brütal barbarians.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8rPwhzm2wFEhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZWqhpmz3Cj8https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A7wLIb0pD6chttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pOAWxwgK9mIhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xG_xV4X8Z9ohttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hrpGKKimWukhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2FZUaGRsBlE
>>93141885Her resurrection mechanic thing never made sense, even the super short stories she was given early on made her a turbo sperg who only cared about killing the big monster. Not even giving a fuck about other stormcast. She wasn't even that concerned about winning either. Other stormies rallying around her living ICBM figure being sighted was just because she usually only showed up at the end of the battle, being fashionably late either way.
>>93142502>Verminlordlol. Nothing with rodent incisors can be sexy. (Anyways, why don't you post some pics? We're on imageboard after all.)
>>93142088>all you have is slopmasters fattening you up for harvest (the next bullshit box for you to by)Why do retards like you even play the game if you hate it so much? Or are you a WFB fag here to stir the pot? If so, you're pathetic.
>>93142722I've met so many people like this on this website in regards to so many IPs/media and they're never able to articulate why they stick around beyond vague gesturing to the (perceived) virtues of suffering
>>93142459I'd love that kind of thing, but it'll probably be a cauldron of some sort that buffs the army if you kill people near it.

Does anyone have any of the Dawnbringers short stories? I love the idea of the Dawnbringer crusades and want to read more about 'em.Looking for:Heir of ShadowsHarrowhandThe Road to HelsmarchPast ReturnsFalse DawnTIA for any help :)
>>93142825Forget about the others, they're boring and not good.
>>93142825blue whatsapp has you covered
>>93142850Thanks for the pdf, anon! I'd still like to give the others a read, even if they're not great haha
>>93142869Wtf is blue whatsapp lol
>>93142887A place where you can download stuff
Apparently Sprues & Brews is reviewing the Fire & Jade book from the Skaventide box tomorrow, so we might get some additional info on the spearhead stuff.
>>93142493I love the snake gang. Such a great box of sculpts.
>>93142850NTA but thanks. I've been wanting to read this one for a while
I know 6 isn't up anywhere yet, but has anyone got dawnbringers 5 sitting around?
>>93142971Have fun anon.https://files.catbox.moe/6ok5qx.pdf
Three hours to go until the preorder announcements. Is anyone expecting they'll announce anything besides the Skaventide box and the tie-in novel?
>>93143039absolutely not, they'll push back everything else for the edition launch
>>93143039Fuck no. We ain't 40k we ain't getting that kind of attention.
>>93142935https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VEPEPYXcVZkBack when the Warcry stuff was first releasing, I wanted to build a StD army based around their snake theme, but I didn't go through with it. Now I'm glad that I didn't.
>>93142757I hate elves
>>93143039HAS ANYONE SEEN MY DOG
>>93143039no way in hell
>>93143129>treesShouldn't it say bugs?
>>93142408Damn anon that looks like a lot of work congrats on jumping that hurdle!
>>93143177have it your way if you like it better
>>93142493that model is male
>>93143270it has a boobplate and a venomous tailit's a woman
>>93143290I've always found the most erotic part of a woman to be the venomous tail
>>93143310it's a dangerous game, let me tell you!
Do we have any info on what the various Melusai will be like in 4th?
>>93138935kek
>>93138935
>>93143498>elves will most likely get a battletome before him>has a great value start collecting boxOh man, better times.
>>93143498>included in upcoming sidegamesIt's already been seven years, huh.
>>93141648I miss them so much bros...
>>93143572Are they still sold-out?
>>93143408Based on what we've seen for 4th edition so far? Pretty shite most likely.
>>93143408
>scrolling through store after several month hiatus>notice new STD character>black womankek
Come on GW show some fackin models
>>93143600I genuinely don't understand what compels you people to constantly make these posts day in and day out
>>93143620I'm sorry, Fink but it stands out to normal people.
>>93143505Hard to believe Dispossessed used to have their own GHB rules and everything, back in the day. But then we're now in a period where even armies that had their own battletomes and new models like BoC and Splittas are no longer safe. At least dispossessed hven't been officially memory wiped like those two, though. Not yet anyway.
>>93143597Oof...OOF!That hurts. That hurts fucking bad. What did they do to my girls?!>>93143620Mental Illness, I imagine.
>>93143620Combination of boredom and buying outrage culture. It’s all they have it’s an expensive life please understand
>>93143600Post models.
>>93143634Speaking, I'm looking forward to the new indexes with their shitty lore retcons for why these races don't matter anymore. >Uh, so the Wurgog Prophet Gim Gomes got all the Bonesplitter Tribes together and convinced them to drink the magic Waagh juice and now they're all dead, the end.
>>93143634>At least dispossessed hven't been officially memory wiped like those two, though. Not yet anyway.Any day now.
>>93143637>oofI'm with you, fellow DoK enjoyer. Sisters are one of my favorite units. Haven't seen their whole profile, so I'm still huffing the hopium that they'll be worth fielding
>>93143674I still play 1st/2nd edition which means I can still play with these guys in AoS. Same for when they release the Wood Elves again. I feel sorry for people playing later editions who lost out on being able to use their lads :(
>>93143674What a fucking garbage box by the way. Inflating the price with 2 gyrocopters lmaoClassic GW move.
>>93143694Still better than the orc one. But yeah GW is deliberately making these boxes shit, just like they do in AoS and 40K. They are such a laughably evil company it's kinda unreal sometimes. >fuck fuck FUCK!>What's wrong, James Workshop?>EVERYONE IS BUYING OUR SC BOXES, THEY'RE TOO GOOD! MAKE THEM WORSE, WORSE DAMN YOU!!!
>>93143721It's funny how I've only really been actively participating in the hobby for around half a decade now and I already feel like a boomer whinging about how bad things are now comapred to the good old days
>>93143778I remember people doing that back when I played 5e 40k.
>>93143600Basically every human named character that is introduced is a black woman now, remember CoS? Lol
any more leaks besides spearhead crap on youtube and the core rules on imgur?
>>93143821That's what makes it so funny. It's so forced.
Has anyone leaked the spearhead stuff yet?
>check the new map of the Ghurish Heartlands>upper left corner is a site of legend>it's labeled "Beastgrave (Ruined)"
is it retarded to pick your first army based on one (1) model?
>>93144030Not when your pick is as straight as that.
>>93144030Kinda yes. It's all downhill from there
>>93144030no, but I tend to pick armies based on how much I like their basic troops, those are the ones you're moving around and playing with the most.
>>93144041THE BEEEEEEEESSSSSS
>>93144030Well, I have an army of one (1) Kraken Eater so I say it's not retarded.
>>93144041not even spirits are safe from the terrible side shave.
>>93144041I can fix her
>>93144064newfag
>>93144030Drycha is my treefu so nah, I'd say that's an indicator of good taste. Sadly there's only one other Outcast unit so far but at least Drycha is great.
>>93144041
>>93144086yeah those are bad too
>>93138746I want Big B to have just canonically enslaved or consumed him at this point. I honestly can't imagine shadow aelves as anything interesting, but Chaos ones among the regular force? Neat enough.

>>93144258Lame...
>>93144258I really want to see a big diorama of all the new skaven shit together with the remaining older stuff.
>>93144258so pre order on the 29th, does that mean they'll release on the 6th or 13th?
>>93144416Nevermind, I read the article
>>93144258do we know the prices yet?
>>93144416Official launch date for the box is the 13th. From there I've no idea how long will be kept waiting for a standalone release of the core book. And it's not clear when the first couple battletomes will be rolled out either.
Why was it called "Dominion" anyway?
>>93144258I haven't seen any leaks from Fire and Jade :^/
>>93144258Selling fast
>>93144453
is this a girl or a boy
>>93144611Yes
>>93144611I believe it's a boy
>>93144611>slaneshwhatever you dont want them to be
do you think hoppers and bounders will be going down to 1 health as well?
>>93141582You not liking something doesn't make it a flop
>>93143906That's years old news. Seraphon won that storyline
>>93144652nah, the logic will be one for the squig and one for the rider
>>93144652Nah even the squishiest Cav is still 2 wounds minimum.
>>93144611Art is unambigiously a woman. I believe the model also has tits, just less noticable
>>93138507name of the artist?
was there a list of which endless spells got lumped together into the various lores?
>>93144731https://www.warhammer-community.com/2024/04/30/clash-with-eldritch-manifestations-and-demolish-faction-terrain-in-newaos/
>>93144721probably jetblackraider
>>93144611>high heels>veilGirl I suspect, though I believe Slaan*shites crave for the blessed androgyny.
>>93144258>On Warhammer Community next week there will be more Warhammer Age of Sigmar coverage while we wait patiently for that all-important Skaventide pre-order date.So what are they gonna talk about? What's left to talk about?
>>93144897Roadmap, maybe?
>>93144897battle reports and stuff I imagine, and the various stuff released alongside skaventide (dice, index cards, boards, terrain, limited edition rulers etc) will probably be shown off a week from now.
>>93144688>unambigiouslyPut a percentage to how certain you are on that
give me the index tomorrow james you fucking bastard.
>>93145000I'm guessing your special ed class didn't have time for basic biology, but the two lumps of fat on human's chest are indicative of being a female
>>93145027>twoHmm
>>93145027those look more like muscle boobs than anything else man.
>>93145027Slaaneshis famously adhere to sexual biology after all
>>93145036they're breast if you look at the grey plastic.
>>93143620Ben has a severe personality disorder.
>>93144897Lots of fluff and empty hype with maybe a sprinkling of real news.
>>93145035>>93145037Two tits=not Slaanesh mutation. He only deals in 1s
>Warhammer Twitter account pretands it got taken over by Skaven
>>93144092Outcasts keyword is absent from the Spite Revenants scroll, interestingly.
>>93144897An update to the official website, probably. It's currently lacking an interactive map of the sort that the 40k, HH, and TOW sites have.
>>93144030Nah. Great idea. That's what I did and I never looked back. No regrets.
>>93145145Quite funny desu.
>>93145145They're called reddit rats for a reason
>>93145281on a scale of skaven to bonesplitterz, how reddit is your army?
>>93145293>soulblight that highdamn it.
Will they finally be usable? The models are too good to rothttps://youtu.be/E6WBw1tSWtQ?feature=shared
>>93145293this is actually surprisingly correctly ordered from based to cringe, sorry chuds.
>>93145293Damn I need to go back to my Fyreslayers army to become based againHow is deepkin that low though
>>93145317lol... lmao.no.
>>93145293>Ironjawzwell if they're so anti reddit why is it so hard to find gore gruntas for sale for less than £40?
Can someone please explain to me why I've seen multiple people say the new gordrakk warscroll is better than the current one. I have seen multiple comments saying he's "fixed" or finally usable, and I absolutely do not understand how anyone thinks that when looking at the 2 warscrolls side by side. 3+ save instead of 4+ is nice but basically every change is a negative or weird side grade at best with that monster fighting rule. Maybe cause his movement doesn't chart? I just do not understand and am convinced it's people who don't actually play the army/know his rules and just see a reasonably strong warscroll (which it is, don't get me wrong) in a vacuum independent of what the current one is.
>>93145190Hopefully Drycha will be able to lead more than just Spite Revenants then, especially if she's still a Warmaster.
>>93145359The 3+ save is the big thing, no one in their right mind ever played Gordrakk in 3rd because the standard megaboss had a 3+ save.The waaagh ability is also nice, and he will absolutely murk smaller monsters like carnosaurs, and seriously injure bigger monsters while limiting their counterattack potential by halfing the attacks of their big weapon.
>>93145293I was gonna say that Skaven's number must be inflated by being in both AoS and Fantasy, but by that logic, Slaanesh, Nurgle, et alia would be waaay higher, and they aren't.
>>93145422I don't deny the save is good, but I can't help but think of his entire warscroll as a side grade at best. Losing the ability to issue a command 3 times is not worth a once per game +1 to hit aura to me, but maybe I'm wrong. Also the ability to gimp monsters 66% of the time isn't worth losing destructive bulk, or the way he shat out mortals against heroes. And strength from victory is just worse. I dunno, i just see it as a sidegrade at the absolute best. I don't disagree he's gonna be strong (points allowing) in 4th, but I don't see how people can consider him "so much better" or "fixed."
>>93145456What he used to have is irrelevant.He wasn't used last edition and I doubt he will be this time. His damage is too low vs anything that isn't specifically hero monster. His waagh bonus isn't a big enough deal to make up for it.
>>93143679>>93143637Potentially could not be the worst thing, of you.get a charge and use the fight twice CA, they will get to fight twice before the enemy
>>93145437Or... skaven is that high due to AoS, whfb, vermintide 2 and total war
>>93145353because they killed the only way to get them cheaply when they squatted the old SC box.they're one of those obscenely expensive elite cavalry units like mournfang, who i think are still like $80 a box. fortunately for ogre players you can find mournfangs for like $12 a set secondhand because they have never once been even remotely playable
Where did the magic go?
>>93145618soulbound
>>93145618Go, DoT, Go!
>>93145611I just found out there's no IJ box at all. Goddamn that's painful. Reminds me of the state of daemons atm
>>93145293>nurgle & fec77Orc or Elf?
>>93145633they used to hand a great start collecting, but never got a vanguard box after warclans became soup, and for all 4Es bluster about ironjawz and kruleboyz being separate now, they still called them warclans in the ironjawz article and said if you want to play spearhead you just have to suck it up and play kruleboyz
>>93145611Mournfang aren't even expensive because you get 4. Pigs were inexplicably like $80 still in 2016 when everything was cheap.
>>93145684Yeah I was tempted very many times to pick up their boxes but just ended up never doing it. I remember pic rel being great too.I really hope they get a Spearhead or something
>>93145684Their sc was only good because pigs were overpriced. Then when they price hiked them to a $100 before the vanguards it started looking objectively below average.
which paint brand has an actually good magenta that covers well and is vibrant?
Guess we'll see these in August?
Why did he sheathe his giant cleaver under the skin of his manboob? Why does he have a fist-sized metal stud hammered into his side? What's wrong with his teeth? Why won't he wear a shirt or a hat?
>>93145805Wrong image
>>93145805Definitely maybe.
>>93145806inbred oger retard
>>93145815Imma go out on a limb and say their box's release date is scheduled to July 27th.
>>93145806Most nu-art is garbage
>>93145806its a bit of lore that might not be mentioned much in the newer books but it was prominently mentioned in the old whfb books. ogres skin is like an inch and half thick at least, its like rhino hide, its practically armor. if i remember right all ogres used to count has having armor even when they didnt, and they just straight up dont feel cold, allowing them to live in wintery mountains without wearing much clothing at allif the game was actually true to lore, ogres should probably have a 5+ FNP across the board like troggoths. they're supposed to be extraordinarily hard to kill
>>93145805The embedded warpstone all over the place looks so stupidSomeone at GW has a real fetish for that shit
>>93145806I'm not so much bothered by the why as the how
>>93145806I love the stupid biting mouth sword
>>93145806Imagine being able to do this with whole inches of impervious and thick skin
>a thousand years of being too cold to feel your fingers>a thousand years of being so hungry it hurts>a thousand years of being the only one who even knows what warmth feels like>a thousand years of thanklessly dragging your grandad around to maybe one day remind people a better world is possibleI feel legit bad for this guy.
Do we really not have a scan of Dawnbringers 6 yet? Christ, at this point I might need to buy the bloody thing.
>>93138507Stupid FAGGOT OP can't even get the thread right
this thing needs a resculpt
>>93146274Model is great. Terrible paintjob there though.Not that that stops GW these days.
>>93145805>>93145863the random batches of bare skin and then fur in no real rhyme or reason I dislike more than the warpstone implants personally, though I thing for former could be course corrected with paint and maybe a little greenstuff if not.The warpsone makes sense since they now have a "button" to push on their war scroll for it. Though I'd prefer if it was done a bit different to appear as though it was a surgical graft or that the flesh had grown around it rather than slotting a gemstone into a wall like it's a puzzle piece.
>>93146445i used to have skaven a while back, stormfiends had the same thing with the patches.if you just pat the pars inside and outside of the patches the same fur color, it just looks like texture and not bald spots, so i wouldnt sweat it too much
>>93146445Yeah there's lots of weird shit. I'm not even into skaven but when I first saw the models I thought it looked cool, good for the fans. Then you look closer and you see all this weird shit GW slapped on because they can never help themselves.Oh well, doesn't affect me I guess.
with the change to combat range, does the base size distinction between 25s and 32s not really matter much anymore?
>>93146506It does because you'll get more 25mil bases within those 3 inches.
>>93146274I agree, the ghoul king has a stupid pose, a stupid base, and looks more like a chad ghoul than a vampire unlike the archregent. The dragon is still pretty good though.
>villains are a secret society of antitheists who want to overthrow and/or murder all gods so mortals can rule themselves>membership draws from all order factions>even fyreslayers for some reasonWell that feels kinda dumb.
>>93146733Artwork looks cool, by why would fucking Stormcast and Fyreslayer be antitheists? Makses sense for a kharadron, but why them?
>>93146274I'm not an expert on chiropteran anatomy, but the wings on this thing always looked wrong to me. They appear to have too many fingers.
>>93146274nah
>>93146765I imagine the stormcast doesn't like his deal and doesn't want to lose more memories. But yeah every time GW tries this sort of thing, which is annoyingly often is Sigmar, it just comes across as some petulant child whining that they had to go to sunday school.
>>93146765Because 1e aos was simple mindless power metal fantasy where everything was black and whiteEver since then everything had to be gritty shades of grey moralist bullshit and now aos has to be grimderp to cater to 40kfags so things don't exactly make sense
>>93146445>the random batches of bare skin and then fur in no real rhyme or reasonWell, there is a reason: They were shaved there in order to receive those scarification brands.
>>93146445I mean a rat ogor is a vivisected Skavenslave with assorted ogor bits sewn into it and crammed full of warpstone steroids to beef it up and hold it together, it's not gonna be pretty or well crafted.
>>93146765There were no SCE in the Order of the Black Sun. But basically everybody else was there. And there were a lot of them. As in, when they decided to make a move, it only took them a few weeks to muster an army large enough that it could stomp Settler's Gain.The author unfortunately is not a good storyteller and besides that he is clearly not very familiar with the setting he's writing in.
I've now played two 2k games of 4th (using current points) of Stormcast vs Seraphon.Here's a few thoughts: You really feel the fewer CPTaking a double turn early is actually good, because you get all the benefits of going twice plus you guarantee yourself underdog status later (+1 cp and the mission twist goes in your favor)Yndrasta better not be expensive, she's a glass cannon and often whiffs and dies.Bringing back a unit at half strength abilities are inherently less strong than in 3rd because due to no battleshock units stick around longer and you can deny your opponent resurgence somewhat by retreating when a big unit only has a couple models left.3inch combat range has made combat faster and large units generally killier.Carnosaur is badKroxigors are good, but need AoA/buffsNew command abilities are very fun, and you'll definitely be watching your opponent's pool of CP to see if they can countercharge.
>>93146765Because almost all BL writers are reddit atheists
>>93146989>Carnosaur is badwere you using the spearhead profile or the full profile? because they are very different. the full game carnosaur looks pretty good if its cost is still around the 200pt mark like the current carnosaur
>>93147061I was using the full profile.They just tended to do very little combat wise, I was using two.That being said it could be in part due to Stormcast savestacking which is now basically unique to them and super strong (their finest hour + AoD)
>>93147090makes sense i guess. maybe thats just a counter, because 12 attacks at 3 damage for around 200 points just seems good to me.
>>93146989>Carnosaur is badsadgeI mean Trogolodon is cooler since carny is so snub nosed but still I want the T-rex equivalent to be good.
>>93146765There are fyreslayers who think grimnir is bitch made and want to keep him dead
>>93146733What's weird about it? The throughline is LRL and Teclis, it's a story about grooming and generational trauna, how the manipulation of Aelves by Teclis is mirrored by the academy and Lumineth society at large. Look at the Knight Questor forced into his sacrificial role or the captain shamed for compassion because KO could not afford to express it after their God left them to die in the age of chaos?Fyreslayers would be the most disposed to it imo, they're a destructive warrior cult whose entire ethos is based on a dead god and more than any other they're a people suffering god mandated conflict due to the mercenary nature of Urgold contracts Bad novel, though. I liked the core adventure but the cult/secondary-tertiary protagonists felt bloated and preachy to me. It'd be great if the villain didn't have a pov.
Seems someone made a thread and didn't link here>>93146208>>93146208>>93146208
>>93141606Those are big boys. If I use the IoB rat ogres on the correct size base, is it just as fair to the opponent?
