>>93393574
She's decently tanky and a 2 cast wizard that can get +1 in the subfaction you would take with her. If that's what you want she's worth it. There are better strategies to do with her points though, torgillius, mortis engine, belladama.

Oh gods, it will be Cities, won't it? FEC makes sense as vampire and OBR were last year and nighthaunt before that. Destruction won't get anything, as always (maybe Ogor refresh, at least?). I doubt it will be Skaven for Chaos, there is sufficient hype with the starter box of 4e, no need to boost them more. StD got box last year, also nice darkoath box. But Tzeentch or Hedonists might use some attention. And second order... maybe Fyreslayers or IDK?

Holy things are all over the place, in some media they're beautiful. That being said, SCE aren't ugly, they're just people, some ugly, some beautiful, some in the middle. Given new power and strength, not new faces. What, are you some beauty pageant attendee or something that you harp on this? Do you also screech impotently that Space Marines and Custodes are not the vision of beauty despite either being crafted or seen as humanity's angels?

No, because they're not actually divine, they are the roided up science experiments given a false skin of divinity. A space marine is not literally an angel of death. There's maybe an argument for Custodes, but they're handsome enough and as of yet have no female models.

Honestly I'd say SC are above average in terms of looks, as far as WH model ranges go. They certainly aren't CoS. Most of their bare heads are either handsome or cute, you've got got some generic baldie space marine heads in the mix but not an overbearing amount.

Custodes are hideous compared to SCE. See? You are being a massive hypocrite here. You don't give a shit if the specially crafted beautiful men aren't beautiful, but demand that the enhanced with magic SCE are despite nothing in their lore indicating that they're supposed to be. Them being holy is what Sigmar's people believe, they're no different to Space Marines in that they are roided up warriors with magic.

There aren't female custodes models yet. The male heads look masculine enough. When they start adding female custodes I'll be ready to judge them, believe me. Custodes also aren't literally divine either, I just said there's a better argument for that when compared to space marines.

That's why I put helmets on them, retard. No model in armour has ever looked good without a helmet on.
"oh, I'll just cover every inch of my body in Sigmarite to keep me safe, better take my helmet off though that makes sense!"
If you want models to look good, slap helmets on them. Otherwise shut the fuck up about wanting models to look good you pile of shit.

They don't really refresh ranges with Xmas Battleforces. For Destruction I could see a King Brodd with a two Mancrushers.

Last year they charged €180 with €255-290 of shit inside. Discount of 35% is expected but 40% discount was a thing in the past as well. King Brodd and 2 Mancrushers would cost you €292 if purchased separately and even now GW is pushing Mancrushers for €44 with the Spearhead bundle.

No, they're just handcrafted from the start using space magic by a not-God. And neither are Sigmarines. Why do you keep ignoring the bit where Sigmarines aren't literal angels but just warriors infused with lightning magic? Do you need to take some pills, anon?
>Will you now accept that female stormcast are too ugly?
Nope. Because they were never supposed to be the absolute pinnacle of human beauty like Custodes. Only if you believe the same of Space Marines will your logic make sense.
>>
>>93394073
Does that make all of Chaos Daemons holy now too? They're all fashioned by divine beings. Like I said; its all subjective. One I generally agree with, but when talking about the nitty gritty its important to mention it.

True, see also all the IDK stuff in Broken Realms that went nowhere so far.

When in doubt, i think new models are a better indicator of new releases than lore events that could be setting up something much further out.

Going on Dawnbringer lore+model releases, I think the Order armies we'll see get decent size releases in 4E are probably Fyreslayers, DoK (Krethusa is a big pointer) Sylvaneth (Belthanos+serious Kurnothi lore wanking) and LRL (to finish out River Temple at minimum, maybe some phoenix stuff). And CoS obviously, there's no way their initial wave was everything.

...So not space magic, then? There is no alchemy in reality that works like that. Also, nothing about the Custodes changed from wh30k to wh40k, so until the lore says otherwise they are the same.
>They are though. They're divinely crafted.
No, they're not. They are empowered by Azyr. By your logic the Space Marines are divinely crafted. Just because people worship these powerful beings doesn't mean that they are literal gods.

Correct.

Yeah, but it's arcane future science.
>Also, nothing about the Custodes changed from wh30k to wh40k, so until the lore says otherwise they are the same.
Yeah, nothing changed, and the Emperor doesn't fashion them all personally from magic. He alters children so they grow into custodes and has a team of scientists for this process.
>No, they're not.
Yes they are. They literally explode into lightning when they die and get new bodies made for them. The Imperium alters people using genetics and chemistry. Sigmar and friends literally weave new bodies into existence using magic.
This is why space marines are custodes are not really divine, whereas stormcast are. This is also one of the reasons stormcast fail conceptually by the way.

That makes them as much angels as they are any other word for supernatural warriors. Demons. Devils. Einherjar. Either way, nothing in their lore points to them needing to be pretty. Besides, again, its obvious you only give a shit that SCE females aren't wankbank for you.
>This is why space marines are custodes are not really divine, whereas stormcast are. This is also one of the reasons stormcast fail conceptually by the way.

Wrong as discussed.

No, because they're literally cribbing on Classical->Christian aesthetics, and again, they're bodies are literally crafted by gods.
>Space Marines are built using the gene-seeds of Primarchs that were created via a deal with the Chaos Gods.
And? They're still boys made through surgical and chemical enhancement. Not literally created from the essence of magic.

>Wrong as discussed.
In all mention of Custodes in wh40k, they are mentioned to be the pinnacle of humanity in shape and form. Your copium is just getting sad now.
>No, because they're literally cribbing on Classical->Christian aesthetics
Wrong. They're based more off of the Norse Einherjar, where brave warriors are taken into Valhalla. It has very little Christian imagery. Unless you think warriors with wings is exclusively Christian?
>and again, they're bodies are literally crafted by gods.
No, they're not. Their bodies are reforged to fit the power, not crafted. Custodes are crafted, not SCE.
>And? They're still boys made through surgical and chemical enhancement. Not literally created from the essence of magic.
Those genes are literally filled with magic, genius. So they're getting infused with magic genes that change their appearance to align with their gene father. Unlike SCE. If anything, now that I think about it, your screeching makes way more sense with Space Marines as well as Custodes.

Einherjar were just dead guys though, not divinely created beings.

They're not, hence why anti-magic fields don't affect them.

I don't believe so, there was a lot of changes in how the company at large and FW specifically operated that don't make the 10years gap some intrinsic part of their releases schedule, they've clearly picked up the pace and the resources to pull out way more products, including plastic kits now.
And although I'm not saying TOW2.0 is going to happen in 3 years, I'll say that GW will want to address the overlaps in its side of the range as quickly as possible.

I see more chances in updates for dryads, spider riders, flagellants, saurus guards, grave guards and the 3 ogre infantry units than I see in the release of umbraneth, a fyreslayer rework, an idoneth second wave or tzeentch warriors.

I said based on them, not based on Christian mythology like you mentioned. Stop switching the goalposts. You started this entire rant by complaining that they are not beautiful holy angels when they are not based on beautiful holy angels.
>They are crafted from magic.
Enhanced with magic. Its still the same body. Nothing about them has changed except that they got bigger or older. Unlike Gene Seed which actually has changed the appearance of characters drastically.
>They're not, hence why anti-magic fields don't affect them.
It doesn't work on Primarchs either, despite literally being created using space magic. Unless they're powerful Psykers like Magnus.

>His face was reflected perfectly back at him in the crystal panes: tan skin, broad cheeks, and the epicanthic eyelids of the ancient Pan-Asiatic peoples.

>Then came the recognition for the Lion’s Gate, and, with a sudden spike of recognition, I saw Valerian walk up to the podium, clad in his restored armour. It was the first time I had seen him since Vorlese. He went helmless, and I caught a glimpse again of that starkly handsome face, serene and untroubled by the extravagant theatre around him

>>
>>93394520
>But we're talking aesthetics, and they're very much based on Classical->Christian aesthetics.
Again, their aesthetics are mostly Norse mythology inspired. Their hairstyles, their names, their being just worthy warriors returned from death, their culture, their polytheism. The only thing remotely Christian in aesthetics is perhaps the heavy armor. Angels are created, SCE are just warriors imbued with power.
>No it's not, their bodies can be totally destroyed, they turn to lighting and new bodies are made for them.
Which is not the same as crafting a new body. Its recreating what their enhanced body. Space Marines do way more crafting with their bodies than SCE do. Being reborn is not literally making something new.
>It does actually if they're using their powers beyond what their enhanced biology allows.
Primarchs were created using space magic. If they can ignore Blank abilities until they use literal space magic, then you have proven my point. Space Marines also ignore Blank abilities until they use space magic.

>>93393037
>AoS fluff is so souless.

Could write a fucking essay on this, but the short version is that much like 40k books, if you've read one AOS novel, you've basically read them all. The reason is because very very very very little can actually alter the central premise or ever resolve anything in a final manner for the same reason that Batman is never permitted to resolve his parents' deaths, or the Punisher is ever satisfied with whatever measure of revenge he gets.

If these characters ever actually developed in truly meaningful ways, they'd stop being who they are. They could go on and attempt to continue to be WHAT they are, but since those two things are so heavily interconnected, they'll never change because lmao we gotta sell comics.

Put "tiny plastic army men" in place of comics, and you'll understand why the fluff is written the way it is. Whether "Order gets its shit punched in" or "Chaos is winning" or whatever - doesn't matter. Obviously the setting is one of (essentially) eternal conflict that no one can ever truly win unless they actually blow the thing up like End Times and everyone knows how well that was received given how ham-fisted so many of the write-offs were for many characters unceremoniously disposed of.

On VERY RARE OCCASION you'll get a writer to sneak an actually amazing story between the paper-mill pulp stuff that comes out of BL. That is to say, stories that could easily stand alone outside of it all as good books. A good example is Nemesis from the HH books - and it's also why Nemesis was one of the very small number of HH books to get multiple physical reprints. Dunno if I could say I've read an AoS novel yet that would meet that criteria.
>>
>>93394572
They're efficient if you put the ward on them with the subfaction. They hit harder than praetors who are harder to keep the bodyguard effect active on. With the fight twice they wipe things out and they won't lose models before activating again with finest hour for 2+ 5+, but vigilor is expensive and its all he does so that's optional. They're more durable than annihilators and cheaper. It sort of works out like this, you play warrior chamber as the kind of default list and you use questors and vanqs and annis with palladors and longstrikes. You play bleak citadel to get the ward so you can play prosecutors instead as your fast unit because they're cheaper than palladors and then you put reclusians in as a back up target and they become good.

The armour that makes up almost their entire aesthetic? Their defining trait that appears on almost all their units?

It is though, their bodies are created from scratch, not grown from a child's body into something else.
>Primarchs were created using space magic.

>Just that the novels and lore are total dogshit.

They're not dogshit, they just never really develop anything. They are still entertaining just like watching Godzilla fight King Kong is entertaining. But there's no beginning-middle-end or real development by the conclusion because they're always written in a cyclical manner. How could there be when the literal product the lore is selling is ETERNAL WAR? Even if your favorite character dies, the war goes on cause lol fuck dude we gotta sell models.

It's always (literally, since the very beginning of 40k and WFB) kept the setting held back, but then when you go buy a BL novel, you basically understand what you're getting into. You're not going to get some deep literary experience. You're going to get walked through some pulp a dude churned out under contract with a list of bullet points that say shit like, "And then make sure Thostos goes back to normal by the halfway mark" or "Tarsus and Mannfred knew each other at X time," or shit like that. You think those authors know it all? As in everything about the setting and characters and little particulars of warrior chambers and shit? Hahahah FUCK no. Some might know more than others, but they all have an Art Director or Creative Director feeding them outlines they work off of and BL editors working their drafts.

So no, they're not dogshit - they're just 98% the same. They're pulp. They're meant to be read and tossed. They all have the same editors who edit under the same premise (ETERNAL WAR) and so shit does not progress in any meaningful way. It fucking can't. Not because of anything within the story, but because the central premise to fleece dollars by sell fucking tiny plastic army men to seething grognards on a Vietnamese Etch-a-Sketch Forum is to keep the setting going for as long as possible.

Morathi turned into a god and invaded Aqshian free cities to celebrate, but doing so loosened Slaanesh's bindings and he's going to eventually break free now because of her selfishness.

>>
>>93395268
You literally prove me right in your own reply, things happen like Nagash getting power and then he inevitibly loses said power before he is able to make any meaningful change on the setting. Every bit of lore has a build up and then a conclusion which results in nothing meaningful changing about the setting. Morathi warmongers, conquers Har Kuron and then Sigmar conveniently forgives her leading to zero consequences on the setting. Nagash gains a bunch of power, warmongers and then loses his power with basically no consequences on the setting. The vermintide invades, burns down a couple of literal who settlements and then gets beaten at the end of 4th edition by a newly added army/ model update, with, once again absoultely nothing changing in the grand scheme of the setting. The setting changes as much as World of Warcraft does, new villains are added and then are defeated at the end of the edition with nothing meaningful altering the setting.

I was just agreeing with the poster who said the setting isn't allowed to change. It's you guys who are soiling your pants with the "no bro! the setting TOTALLY changes in meaningful ways! Look Vandus got a new paragraph of lore in the 4th edition book!"

Nagash didn't lose power. He just got defeated temporarily. He'll be back shortly to continue his rampage. Morathi hasn't been forgiven, she made a deal with Sigmar to stop the rampage of Kragnos in exchange for being allowed to keep Har Kuron. Kragnos wasn't defeated, Morathi and the frog just warped him somewhere he couldn't cause more damage... for now. The vermintide has now actually, literally reshaped the main continent of Aqshy, erased a huge chunk of the Realm map and replaced it with a gash in reality itself.
>The setting changes as much as World of Warcraft does, new villains are added and then are defeated at the end of the edition with nothing meaningful altering the setting.
Nothing has been undone. The undead are still rising on their own due to Nagash's ritual, it's just at a decreased rate now thanks to the Rite of Life counterbalancing it. But the Rite of Life caused other cracks in reality to form, which unleashed Kragnos, who has not been defeated and is still rampaging through Ghur unopposed. Slaanesh is about to be released back into the Realms due to Morathi's selfishness, which only adds further to the shit sandwich engulfing the Realms at this point. Everything is getting increasingly dire and desperate, no threats have been stopped beyond temporarily and at great cost. You can say it doesn't count if you want to play mental gymnastics to avoid confronting the fact you're objectively wrong.

The undead are still rising on their own, it just isn't brought up at all anymore and has no impact on the setting after 2nd Ed
>>
>>93395396
Just talking about Nagash and the necroquake, I think the introduction of endless spells and Katakros being set free are pretty meaningful changes to the setting, even if you want to ignore all of the smaller lore only things that happened in the soul wars. Ushoran being recruited happened because of Nagashs big power boost as well I think, but I'm not 100% sure on that.
>>
>>93395473
Terrain is kinda shit and utterly worthless for Warcry, but the warbands are broadly alright.
I wish they'd lean a bit more into the horror aspect with the Sylvaneth (e.g. beehive in the abdomen), but it's still an interesting take.

Wrong on all counts, and better yet, you've shifted goalposts yet again. You said they're gone like it's WoW, but they're not, no threats to Order have been defeated or undone. At best they've been delayed. Now you're doing exactly as I said you would, playing mental gymnastics to avoid admitting you don't even know the lore of AoS enough to shittalk it properly. KWAB.

umm squatting factions and removing them from fluff doesn't make their lore irrelevant!

>>
>>93395377
>>93395396
So, what we have is Lore that loosely changes based on some narrative points. Some are there to justify new releases, some are there to justify why stuff is gone and others are just there to keep the lore in movement.

Of course the Lore is there to justify the game and give more depth to your little plastic game figures, and books and other stuff is basically just a byproduct so you can enjoy your hobby in a different way as well if you're in to it.

But this premise doesn't mean shit doesn't change. The whole SCE lore is growing and adulting with each edition, from faultless Paladins of Sigmar we went straight to them having no cure for loosing their shit due to reforging. The overall Lore might not have changed, but the perspective for us as readers/players did. Same with Morathi. People early asked if there is any reason for armies within a Grand Alliance to infight and the Morathi Ark is basically a good example for what happens inside order. Prior to this we only had some textboxes about how Morathi is not to be trusted. Now we have a prime example in the lore how she used other Aelves to piss in Sigmars yard and make him accept it because of how bad his situation is.

Meanwhile I have to say that Lore of 3rd was a fucking letdown and I wish they didn't fuck up the Kragnos/Destruction Focus of the edition by simply not doing anything with it.

they're as far removed from the lore as they can possibly be until they get reintroduced for a new edition.
You're such a blind fanboy you will unironically argue over the setting having meaningful changes despite being objectively wrong, I can smell you through my screen. Take a fucking shower

>>93395537
Just as with the NH/LRL warbands that are just now going up for pre-order, you won't get the standalone sylvaneth warband until the next Warcry set is out.

why do they do this? it makes no fucking sense to me

Hey, so I’m new to the setting, and wow are these models beautiful. I’ve heard AoS is more casual and I want to pick up an army. I’d like to know what play styles each one has (ranged vs. melee, aggressive vs. attrition, elites vs hordes, etc.) and I looked everywhere but everyone seems to not really know how to distill each faction. I looked on YouTube, Reddit, everything. Anyone know a resource where I can find out which faction is good for me?
>>
>>93395473
I'd get Briar & Bone but not Pyre & Flood. Not because they're bad, but I just hate Nighthaunt. Not a big fan of OBR or Sylvaneth either, but those models just look cooler than "High Elves 2.0" and "Everything is a floating bedsheet."

Meta-wise, I like seeing smaller Warcry armies but the game (generally) seems to favor warbands that pack a little more chaff than not.

As for terrain - if you've bought even one of the Warcry big boxes (for Ghur), you've already got a good batch of terrain that goes together theme-wise. If you've bought 2 or more? Lol dude, you have a fucking shelf full of terrain: more than you could ever reasonably use without clogging the board. Enjoy transporting it anywhere besides your living room.

Also they're some of the most unreasonably annoying pieces of terrain to assemble, ever. They look good, but holy shit if I didn't know some of the tricks I know (ie: some sections want you to multi-join 3 or more pieces simultaneously that are structurally reliant on one another), it would be nearly impossible to assemble. Pieces at the bottom don't fit flush, so go figure it creates a growing fault on joints higher up on the tree. In before some sweaty fuck who claims every single piece fits perfectly who never so much as touched the kit despite every single person who's ever assembled the Ghur box stating the trees are horseshit.
>>
>>93395473
The tree is so retarded looking. And the terrain piece is pretty bad too.

On the offchance this isn't a subtle heywoah shill because his video is the only thing I can think of that actually does a full faction rundown: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zJLMRNg_NpY

>>
>>93395551
>he's stuck as a cripple in Shyish
And still sending his undead hosts out to conquer more lands in his name, and they're still winning. As soon as he's done regenerating, which won't take long thanks to the Necroquake empowering him so much, he'll be right back out there leading his armies personally.
>He's fighting a literal endless wave of Saurus
You are aware that he was warped into the distant reaches of Ghur, right? Apparently not.
>She literally was forgiven
No, lol. Literally in the same passage where it mentions Sigmar signing a truce with Morathi it adds he has not forgiven her at all, merely delayed his revenge because she's still fighting Chaos and Destruction. And the Stormcasts that once guarded the city are already raising a liberation army to retake it. You don't even read the rulebooks. Begone, shitposter.

Only thing I'd mention on top of this article is that AOS is (generally) a melee-focused game. You can build shooty lists or ones with way more magic than others, but generally the game is melee heavy.

>>
>>93395609
Well, I honestly don’t know. In RTS games really attracted to rounded armies, but I lean more towards ranged weapons and fast cavalry while I have some cheap units holding the middle. How good is magic in AoS? Is it worth picking an army with wizards (like Lumineth?)
>>
>>93395643
An army with ok line holders, decent ranged options, some good cavalry and flanking options, and maybe some magic, since the lores sound cool.
>>
>>93395431
If morathi made a deal to stop kragnos then she wouldn't have been prosecuted in a court AFTER the siege of excelsis, but she was, because there was no deal.
Kragnos is not rampaging through ghur but sealed once again by draconith, lizards and alarielle, you want to keep up on that.
The necroquake is factually halted and teclis sealed part of nagash in the form of a constellation over hysh.
The vermindoom conveniently doomed the non-worldbuilt third of the parch.
Slaanesh is not getting out anytime soon.

Stormcast or Lumineth
>>
>>93395655
Magic is good entirely upon how good the faction is at magic
Lumineth are well rounded, with a focus on ranged and fast cavalry with wardens holding the middle. They have really strong magic i've found, and can be based around magic entirely if you take Teclis
>>
>>93395655
>>93395670
Lumineth sound like a solid pick for you. Excellent magic, solid ranged, vanari dawnriders look like super aggressive cavalry (at least into infantry) and they have decently tanky infantry between alarith and other units with shining company activated.

Stormcast would be another solid alternative.
>>
>>93395625
Based Slayerbro. Are you finding out that you're using the same rune oh the same battle rounds during your games so far? And any stand out models for you?
>>
>>93394679
>That's some examples of some being handsome (though one's an Asian guy so...) They are not generally pretty.
They are called perfect beings, and I gave multiple examples of Custodes being called the most handsome people ever. And instead you double down. Yeah, your copium has reached new heights.
>>
>>93395671
>If morathi made a deal to stop kragnos then she wouldn't have been prosecuted in a court AFTER the siege of excelsis, but she was, because there was no deal.
How is someone so confidently wrong about something you could learn from just reading a rulebook? Sigmar sent his right hand man down to stop the battle at the city and negotiate a truce. The terms of the truce were "go stop Kragnos or I'll fucking kill you right now." The truce didn't say Morathi wouldn't be prosecuted for her crimes against the Order alliance. Good job undercutting your own point, shitposter, by claiming she was forgiven when she wasn't, though.
>Kragnos is not rampaging through ghur but sealed once again by draconith, lizards and alarielle, you want to keep up on that.
As of 3rd edition tomes he's still free to rampage, so unless this is 4th edition lore you're just making shit up again.
>The necroquake is factually halted and teclis sealed part of nagash in the form of a constellation over hysh.
The quake was put on pause, but the effects of it aren't. Undead are still rising due to the wild magic released throughout the Realms, Nagash is still empowered, Endless Spells are now a common fact of life in the Realms, magic in general is way stronger and more unstable than before. Nagash is still growing stronger every day and planning his revenge, his undead hosts are still ravaging the Realms, he's not been stopped at all, shitposter.
>The vermindoom conveniently doomed the non-worldbuilt third of the parch.
Lol, so you just flat out admit you don't read the rulebooks now. Great. I can now dismiss you as the seething retard you are now that you've shown your hand.

>>93394702
>The armour that makes up almost their entire aesthetic? Their defining trait that appears on almost all their units?
Armor is not their most defining traits, its just one of the more obvious ones. The fact that they are reborn in the storm and are reforged brave warriors are massively more important. Also, there is very little Christian aesthetics in their armor to begin with. I was trying to throw you a bone there.
>Yes, but not everything about them is magical.
They're literally born from magic. And yes, everything about them is magical. They are 9 foot demigods with fantastical capabilities. They are even more magical than the SCE.
>Unless they're psykers they don't have any space magic to use
You only proved my point. Just because something is enhanced or created from magic doesn't make them divine, let alone having to echo concepts of angels. Thanks for playing.

It only annoys me because they made a big deal about him "being a part of the great game" when they didn't need to do that at all. Like ok, he's part of the great game now. Wtf does that even mean?

>>
>>93395710
>How is someone so confidently wrong about something you could learn from just reading a rulebook?
You tell me, you still think kragnos is free and that there was any sort of interaction between prime and morathi before the end of the siege of excelsis, or that anons didn't accurately predict what third of the parch the vermindoom would hit simply by knowing how fuckall was in that side days before the map's reveal.

I'm not the anon you were talking with a few posts prior, by the way, I'm just telling you you got your shit wrong.
>>

new people shouldn't get into stormcast, too many of their staple units have ambiguous futures atm. Until they add new alternatives I'm not telling anyone to buy palladors or dracoths or longstrikes.

It means he did the equivalent of kicking the door down to the place the other major gods play at, sat down unannounced at their table and started eating their snacks without asking and they're just too stunned and confused at the audacity to know what to do with him despite knowing that if they don't chase him off now he's never going to leave.

>>
>>93395808
So confidently wrong, as usual.
>You tell me, you still think kragnos is free
Because he is? That's what the rulebooks for 3rd state. After he got booted out of Excelsis by Morathi and Kroak he's left to his own devices roaming and rampaging through Ghur.
>any sort of interaction between prime and morathi before the end of the siege of excelsis
What are you talking about dumbfuck? Why do you think Morathi showed up to save the day at Excelsis? The Prime put her up to it in exchange for keeping Haron Kur for the time being. Read the goddamn rulebooks and stop with this retarded headcanon. Christ, you somehow thought Morathi was forgiven and now you've exposed yourself so hard as a shitposter.
>>
>>93395890
Do you want to win or do you want to have fun?
If you want to win, take the lumineth, if you want to have fun just grab whatever army looks the coolest
>>
>>93395890
IDK, DoK, DoT all are solid so if you like them just pick one of those. Stormcast are usually recommended since they generally speaking can fill every role with something from their army and they're typically easy to find for cheap
>>
>>93395801
>what does it actually MEAN?
Technically it would mean participating in the wars for 'territory' in the realm of chaos, which is as much a war of land with armies of demons as it is a war over the control of metaphysical concepts and the souls of mortals, both the dead and the still living across the multiverse.

except we don't know if blight city erupted in the realm of chaos as well as the mortal realms, or if the rat has started making demons that aren't greater demons, and talks about winning over the minds and souls of mortals is still very minimal, not to talk about going multiversal.
>>
>>93395890
DoK are the opposite of a well-rounded army. They're fragile but fast and lethal, and most importantly heavily melee-oriented. That doesn't make them bad, though, just not what you said you wanted from an army. Idoneth are a bit more rounded than DoK. Disciples of Tzeentch have more of a magic/ranged focus than either of them.
>>
>>93395890
nta but skaven sounds like a good pick for you, and they're the antagonist faction so you should be able to get an army much cheaper than normal
shooting. magic. flexibility. cheap bodies. cavalry in the form of rat ogres or doomwheels and warp flayers. more elite melee options. They are able to do basically everything you could want
>>
>>93395755
The closest thing we got is this artwork but it most likely what any spiderfang lair look like

the only thing we know is
>The Evercrawl is where the spirits of all slain arachnids can be found, scuttling and crawling through websilk, forests, and rotting ruins
>The Skitterstrand Arachnaroks, the brood of the Spider God, watch over the afterlife and defend it from outside forces, such as Nagash and his many forces. Though they care not about the goings on of the wider Realm, they will defend their lair at all cost and lash out at any magic wielders that cross their paths
>Spiders and grots scuttle through the web tunnels the Nests as they tend to eggs within brood chamners, brew poisons to use on hated foes, and pay homage to their deity, the Spider God

Remember Warmachine? Remember when it advanced the setting and killed off half the factions? Then it became a dead game?
>>
>>93396035
I'm fine with them having "stakes" narratively but it shouldn't affect the game. Go ahead and kill off a bunch of characters but just leave their warscroll in the game, a ton of the fantasy characters weren't alive in their story for the game they just let you use them anyway which is how it should be
>>
>>93396035
the game died AND THEN they killed off half the factions in a last ditch effort to reinvent it after 3rd edition

warmachine was a narrative focused game that had been advancing its story since day 1, thats why you had shit like hailey 1, hailey 2, and hailey 3 even as early as 2nd edition.

>>93396081
All mortal gods have physical avatars, only Chaos Gods are exceptions to this rule because they're not people elevated to godhood, they're primordial concepts beyond reality itself. Nagash isn't an exception, he just has the innate ability to rebuild his body if it gets destroyed because he's undead and his ghost persists even if his bones are shattered.
>>
>>93395890
So as others mentioned, IDK and DoK are more limitited due to a smaller range. That means: Less models to build your army from, less diversity in list building, more likely to have a bit of monotone feel on the long run. This doesn't mean that they are bad or unfun or the bad army for you. This just means a smaller pool of units and therfore less access to different mechanics. A faction with a bigger pool might easier access mechanics while a smaller pool might lack units for certain roles.

Disciple of Tzeentch have basically 2 "pools" merged: Mortals and Deamons. This is basically true for all 4 God-dependant Chaos Factions. You can imagine them as 2 armies in one with some synergies and some buffs limited only to one part of the army.

>Armies with a huge pool:
Seraphon, S2D, Ogors, SCE, Orruk Warclans (although might get split with tome), LRL, GSG, Skaven, Soulblight, Cities (might shrink to small when Aelves and Dwarves are removed as people are afraid of)
>Mid sized Pool:
All 4 God-Specific Chaos, Kharadrons, Flesh Eater and OBR, Sylvaneth (Althou one might argue that their pool has become quite huge recently as well)
>Small
IDK, DoK, Fyreslayers, NH (arguably might be a contender to mid), SoB

You seem very confused, which is unsurprising given your aggressive wrongness.
>Teclis has one of his avatars killed and mentions how he splits himself and that the other gods can probably do the same.
Yes, the same as Sigmar splitting parts of his essence to create the Stormcast. Or Morathi using hers to create the Scathborn, or the fact there are two Morathis now. They all have something in common: living bodies that can be killed.
>He's not an entity with a body but projected avatars.
You should really read those rulebooks. He is indeed an entity with a body, which is why if he loses his body he's crippled. Due to tying his essence to the Realm of the Dead, he persists as a ghost rooted to his domain if his body is destroyed, and he has to wait for his body to be rebuilt before he can make moves again. You will note that this is a property of his nature as undead, rather than a godly power.

>>93396174
>Not even that, he's been in his own forge making a dildo for himself for a while now. He randomly showed up to vouch for Morathi(for some fucking reason) but that's about it. Most dwarfs think he's a useless pussy because he is
Just say "I don't know the lore" and move on, retard. He made Thunderstrike armour, and before that he was roaming the Realms judging the Duardin and trying to unify them, before that he was helping craft the Stormcast, in fact he was central to their creation.
He spoke up for Morathi because he knew Order needed every "ally" it could get, and while Morathi is hardly an ideal ally, she's better than nothing.

Wrong and you don't have any sources. Does Nagash have a body in Soul Wars at the height of his power? No, he doesn't.

Grungni wasn't just sitting in Azyr twiddling his thumbs waiting for thunderstrike armor he was in his own forge/pocket "realm" and when sigmar needed his help he made thunderstrike armor. Grungni's entire plot is him thumbing his ass while everyone around him actively dislikes him or comes to him in an hour of need for him to design something, and once it's designed the six smiths actually make it

>Wrong and you don't have any sources
NTA but he's right. Nagash PROJECTS his being via magic, he still has a body. He is constantly shown, in lore, novels and rulebooks that his body is upon a throne and he projects himself to where he needs to be. This body is broken by Teclis, trapping his soul in Shyish.

>Does Nagash have a body in Soul Wars at the height of his power?
Yes. See above.

Learn to read, spaz.
"He made Thunderstrike armour, and before that he was roaming the Realms judging the Duardin and trying to unify them, before that he was helping craft the Stormcast, in fact he was central to their creation."
He spent most of his time trying to aid the Duardin, while staying separate from them at the same time so they could develop on their own.

Frens, I fucked up and assembled and primed my Clawlord with his chest missing. Didn't notice it until I was priming him this afternoon. Am I fucked? Is there any way to salvage? The piece is supposed to go inbetween his 2 sides, so I don't think I can just cram it in.

I've been wanting to have this model in my army for over a year, but now that I've got him I fear fucking him up.
>>
>>93396330
Because he's shy. I dunno anon I wanted something weird and different for my scuttleboss and was originally going to make a unit of spider riders in shells but had a big one left over from hermit crabs when I was little and the scuttleboss tucked right up inside and I liked it
>>
>>93396311
Could probably fill the gap with greenstuff and reprime, bit aside from that you're pretty much SOL
>>
>>93396390
Spider riders are frustrating. I don't hate them by any means, but unless GW went a fully retarded direction and made them squig-spiders or something I can't see how an update wouldn't improve them. So I'd like to buy a bunch, but if an update comes out I'll be kicking myself, but if I don't get them and they end up being squatted I'll be pissed that I didn't get them when they were relatively cheap
>>
>>93395473
Man they really must have been selling fast. Glad GW quickly plugged the gap with new boxes.
>>
>>93396311
Get a lot of green stuff and some sculpting tools. No time like the present to figure out how to fabricate pieces.

The prime won't matter as much if you apply enough thin coats or (more convenient and realistic) you re-spray a black or dark zenithal shadow (ie: you spray from the bottom to create shadows against the relief of the model) and it might come out alright.

Generally zenithal style highlights work by priming black or dark first, then doing your white or light prime as a highlight - usually various white / black values with an airbrush. You could do this with a rattlecan if you were careful. Then go back with contrast paints.
>>
>>93395473
I hate... every single model in this box. Impressive...
>>
>>93396330
Probably because hermit crab Spiderfang is a really cool concept for a beach-dwelling Gloomspite army. Could even throw in some Dankholds since they already have barnacles, just gotta swap the mushrooms for coral.

You're thinking way too hard about realism in a game about ghouls and goblins fighting magic goldmen and skeletons. Maybe there's very large land snails in this part of the jungles where they're from. Maybe the jungle is very close to the beach.

He's angry about me pointing out that it's stupid to call a grass base a beach theme and his argument is that because there can be grass at a beach I'm retarded.

>>
>>93396977
Which part would you be magnetizing? I've only put together one terrorgheist but I can't imagine how magnets would make anything easier. If you mean just the base itself it's not a terrible idea as long as your case is tall enough to make that worth it

what should I ask for this

everything built, very little is primed.

50 vulkite berserkers with dual axe
10 vulkite berserkers with shield

15 hearthguard with poleaxe
5 hearthguard with broadaxe

6 magmadroths (4 runeson, 1 father 1 smiter) have all the bits to build alternate ones, so no issue getting more fathers/smiters

only heroes are battlesmith and flamekeeper + the heroes from the 6 magmadroth kits.

275$ a cool price or do I need to go lower?

Doesn't seem like an unreasonable price, you can always start there and lower it if necessary.
