I bought the ossiarch bonereaper spearhead, and im wondering, Is it best to leave the shields off the Mortek Guard and attach those later when im done painting the body? do I have to cover the connection points with anything so I dont cover it with basecoat paint? First time ever doing any of this kind of stuff
>>
Rolled 5 (1d10)

Test
>>
>>94186861

If it's going to bother you that the insides of the shields and the bones behind them will be poorly painted at best then absolutely leave them off.

I promise you no one else will notice or care.
>>
>>94186861

As for connection points, you could use some blutack but it shouldn't be a problem, plastic glue eats through paint, just make sure there isn’t much paint there.

And you can always scrape off any excess paint with a knife.

Thanks for the tips, I guess if it isnt a problem I wont bother covering up the connection points. Will save me some time so I can actualy start painting

One game that stands in memory was my 3rd or 4th 2k game in 2nd edition. The first one where I felt like I knew what I was doing and the plan came together.

It was my Ironjawz vs STD and I got first turn, I then did the old ironjawz thing of alpha charging 6 pigs and a maw krusha into the enemy line.

But most crucially I managed to teleport a reinforced Ardboyz unit behind enemy lines and charge them into Archaon, who they somehow managed to kill by turn 3.

Good times.

Looking to get into AoS from 40k where I own and main most of the Khorne Daemons range. I have a game arranged for next weekend, but realize I am severely handicapped by the lack of an altar, a Slaughterpriest, and spell models. I'm cool with that for now since it's just a casual game, but is there any way to kitbash or get the stuff I'm missing in a way that is acceptable to GW event people? Assuming I enjoy the game I'm willing to pay, but prefer to be a cheapass about it.
>The free model seems like it could make a decent Slaughterpriest with some adjustments, but I doubt that'd be acceptable to James
>>
>>94187539

Replace the head, the weapon and the shield with things appropriately Khorny, make the base a bit more impressive and fitting for a hero and then paint him all red and such.

Do all that and no one can complain.
>>
>>94187539
>>94187805
Slaughterpries is quite big, so a warior kitbash might need a new base and a stepping stool
>>
>>94187847
I'll give up on that then, I was kinda hoping to stick to models that could work with both systems but I love the Slaughterpriest model anyhow.
A bit more hesitant about the spells and altar, but I play at GW stuff sometimes and I can't really not justify not having them since they're free in points cost

the chaos spawn kit is a treasure trove of bits which you could use in conversions

the khornate endless spells shouldn't be too difficult to scratchbuild, one of them is just a spare axe from a bloodthirster, another you could get away with one or two floating khornate banners from blood warriors, the skulls and scenery are a bit harder, but you could get away with genuine scrap in the general shape and decorated with plenty of blood paint
surely under Halloween it shouldn't be hard to find skulls of any shape and size
>>
Good point with the axe, I have quite a few floating around
The banners are a good idea, as are the skullls. Have to check if the bases are cheaper than just buying the thing outright.
Thanks, any other advice concerning AoS would be good. I'm pretty familiar with the ins and outs of hobbying with 40K but AoS is a bit new to me.

Beasts of chaos as an army are removed from aos, and come next summer their rules will be considered outdated and no longer getting point updates

But there are some beastmen leftover in other chaos armies for aos, predominantly in the tzeentch army where tzaangors are more refined compared to your average screaming drooling goat
>>
>>94188872
Oh, this one’s great.
>>
>>94188879
I'm do realize that BoC gets shafted and Tzaangors are not your average brayherd. But the question persists: Are there any beasts of chaos that aren't screaming drooling retards? (Dragon Ogors perhaps)?
>>
>>94188946
At least one, the main BoC guy from Hallowed Knights: Black Pyramid was pretty smart.
>>
>>94188961
There's another from that series who was a knighted squire in the order of the fly too. The SCE who kills him regrets having to do so, wondering if his kind could have been redeemed in much the same way the protagonist of black pyramid cooperates with the beastman in that
>>
How many armies is too many armies? I want to pick one base on the popular advice - choose the army you like - but I like almost every army and think about buying... three or four?
>>
>>94188995
There's no too many, collecting and painting is a hobby in itself but most can probably only play a few
>>
>>94188995
That's not crazy and AoS is somewhat cheaper then 40k when it comes to having full armies. It was much easier for me to build SCE and ogres then it was for any 40k army outside of Custodes
>>
>>94188995
Start reading lore for each and then looking at the minis. Your imagination should narrow stuff down if you can more easily imagine some minis doing the described actions compared to others.
>>
>>94188995
its not so much a problem of too many, i've been in the hobby for 20 years and have 6 armies for aos and 6 for 40k (as well as 2 for warmachine and several boxes of dnd minis)

the issue is more 'too much at once'. if you buy 2 or 3 armies at the same time, or i'd say within the span of a year or two, you will find your self with an overwhelming backlog of unpainted grey plastic and that is often the biggest and most immediate cause of burnout.

start with one army. and im not one of those "buy one box at a time and dont buy another until you paint it" people, but i dont recommend having more than one army under construction at a time per game, you will just get buried by the sheer time requirements of painting an army.

i do think having multiple combat patrol/spearheads going at once is manageable though, if you can pick up a spearhead and then just leave it at that.
>>
>>94188995

I'm reaching the point of "too many" I think.
I have 12 armies of 2000points or more, 5 of which are over 5k and one over 10k.
I'm running out of shelf and storage space as a result.
I play four of those armies regularly.

>>94188288
Oh yeh, Gunnar was my favourite character back in 1996
>>
>>94188736
Tzaangors
>>
>>94188946
dragon ogres aren't actually beastmen mutants, despite being found often in their armies

if you don't accept tzaangors as your answer then the closest things you can find to less savage beastmen are 40k's imperial beastmen or the ancestors of tzaangors in aos, you can read about them in the twistfray fluff, or some types of beastmen from fantasy, for example ind was noted for having tigermen but while brutal, they weren't quite as bestial as the conventional goatmen of the forests of the empire.
the south pole of the warhammer world was also the home of beastmen that didn't get born from mutations in a human population but purely from mutated animals and from breeding with demons, some of these accompanied archaon when he use the southern portal to reach the northern one and interestingly enough they started to mutate, but instead of mutating into more bestial forms they mutated into more human-like forms

>>
>>94187539
the blades of khorne vanguard/spearhead is not bad if you don't mind the older models it comes with. the slaughterpriest it comes with is a different variant but I don't think anybody at any LGS will care. It's 50/50 if a GW event will permit it.

If you own enough daemons (and like the daemons part) then just get the priest, the altar and the spells. You can maybe kitbash the priest if you have similar weapons and a khorne-y helmet.

Maybe check for 40k khorne berzerker or AoS blood warrior/skullreaper bits on ebay and get some helmets and glue it to the chaos warrior if you can find them easily and then paint him red. maybe take off the shield arm and put some severed heads or another weapon to differentiate him more. Paint a gold khorne icon on his cape or something idk.

I'd have respect for even just like, a funny idea to go alongside a base with no giant. Like an overly elaborate old terrain base with just a guy with an assault rifle or something stupid.

Especially if you're gonna be that fucking guy and just netdeck your fucking list up to some meta slop.

>>94189973

They used to be a recursion heavy army with complex tactics and an answer to every situation, now they are usually played as a super elite army with simple but strong battle traits.

If you don't have any Morghast or deathriders I suggest you get some.

So are beasts of chaos going to be played as dark oath now? Kinda weird they don’t have a marauder chariot too…

I'm a bit torn. Since Chaos Dwarfs are coming, I'd like to get them some slave warriors. Horns of Hashut and Hobgoblins feel natural, but what about Black Orcs? Apparently a few of them still remained, so I'm thinking a unit of five for a display board. Question is, do I opt for the old Black Orc kit or the new 'Ardboys?

>>94190232

I hope not for their sake, Darkoath have terrible rules.

>>94190258
I think they'll look too neat stood next to the Horns, also the sculpts are showing their age. Just go for the Ardboyz kit.

Either proonts or the new ones. Unfortunately neither actually look like the artwork, it's either chunky-clunky or smashed-and-battered. I'd suggest putting helmets on all of them, tho.

Too many is only a threshold that you can decide on your own. If you have space to store all of them, and enjoy painting lots of different stuff, there's no reason you could have one of every army. I think it's nice having multiple projects to work on because it gives you something to pivot to if you become burnt out or frustrated with one project. I think as your first army it's best to pick one that you're most excited to paint and have lots of ideas for

Nagash + 4 Morghast is a good combo, you just throw the Morghast forward to fight, kill a bunch of stuff and die, then Nagash brings the unit back at full strength.
>>
>>94192327
It was pointless. It was a marketing tactic making it seem like something big was gonna happen with Sigmar. It was a nothing burger about something everyone including people in universe already knew and they could've went with something else that would've done the job for hyping the Ruination chamber.

Oh and they were cutting corners like crazy on doing the animations (as in the movements) in the trailer. You see some of this too on the other recent CGI for Gdubs.

But they're fine as long as they don't die, right? Is it just that they don't have the option to permanently die? Even if that is the case aren't you likely just to be a slave to Nagash upon permadeath?
Like if I'm dying but you resurrect me with the caveat that I lose 10% of my IQ points each time I die, I'm still gonna be grateful, especially if the alterative is an even worse existence. Obviously it'll suck if I die enough and am left eating crayons it'd suck

I guess if it takes them 3 years to save ~$600-1k for a new 2k or ~$125 for a Spearhead and they still want to play then yeah, older editions are the best option. Not like they're doing tournaments or whatever if they're that broke, could even homebrew current edition rules if they're just playing garagehammer.

But shooting has been overall reduced in 4th.

KO is all shooting (and garbage), all of the elves and not-elves (Sylvaneth) have shooting builds, Tzeentch and Slaanesh can do shooting as well though Tzeentch isn't very good at it compared to the spelldom or Tzangor melee options.

Khadron is what I got suggested when I asked around myself when 4th came out both here and IRL friends and acquaintances. Steam punk dwarfs.

Not that gay anon above, but I bought Fyreslayers because my playgroup doesn't have anyone who plays them and I found a bulk lot for an insanely cheap price, so I bought them. Absolutely fucking killed my passion and desire to paint as I was working through over 60 dwarves at a time. Yes, batch painting is for psychopaths. I had to take a couple months off but something in me went back to the Slayers and I'm about 80% through my entire 2000 point army now and I'm actually starting to enjoy painting them. I only do about 3 at a time, and mainly the characters because I enjoy painting them more than battleline. I think knowing that the project is almost done (minus basing them all) has energized me and given me a push to finish these little shits. Still think their aesthetic is a bit shit and I'm hoping they get some new models in poses and design like the warcry box has, but just gotta wait for that.

I washed and drybrushe the base but I think it's missing something. Should I get some shrubs or give the drybrushing another try?

The slaughterpriest in the Khorne Spearhead box is a different variant of the regular slaughterpriest called a "slaughterpriest with hackblade." he has the horned helmet with a ball and chain around his arm.
this guy is in the khorne spearhead

this guy is the regular slaughterpriest
https://www.warhammer.com/en-BE/shop/Khorne-Bloodbound-Slaughterpriest

I meant to say that most people will probably let you proxxy that slaughterpriest with hackblade as a regular one. I've never been to an events so idk how strict GW is with proxies, even if it's just a slight variant of the same model.

I think this base could've done with some smaller rocks piled up around the tactical rock, and then a single tuft could've easily brought it back to life. Currently it's very very flat in a sortve unnatural way. If you decide to stick some rocks around the tactical rock now I'd probably build your texture paste up along where they meet the base and then hit the whole thing with some more drybrushing

Each unit can use it once. It's the unit using it, not your army (in which case you wouldn't pick a friendly target) so you can use it as many times as you have charging units.

Speaking for myself, I have 13k of Stormcast and am not going to buy any ruination chamber stuff, I also skipped skaventide.

To be fair GW has made this an easy decision by giving ruination chamber bad rules, but if that changes I'll be proxying.

That really doesn't matter much, save the few who were actively building an army (which may not matter for Bonesplitterz soon and won't for BoC). Everyone in my area has continued to play with their stuff without complaint and will do for another three years at least.
>muh tournaments don't permit...
Something like 0.0001% of players attend those lmao
The real reason the game is in a slump is because it's now a very abstract game with arbitrary points systems and heavy on feel bad attrition/regurgitation moments. It's too technical in many ways and too simplistic in others

Nah I'll take photos of my minis however I want. Not taking them to impress you, I'm happy with how they look so far. Maybe when they're all done, based and together I'll take some "professional" shots, but as they're still WIPs, I don't care

GW kicked off the edition with mass squatting into shitty index rules into battletomes that nobody seems interested in buying, even in hugbox forums like TGA.

It's not a great start to the edition. Not unrecoverable, probably, but there's very little right now to make anyone actually enthusiastic about 4E.

I dunno if 4th edition is dying but my hype for it deflated pretty quickly and my LGS who were initially interested it went back to 40k (which I think is inevitable anyways).

My problem with it is they revamped a game that didn't really need it and scrapped a lot of flavorful army rules and complexity for a game that's less balanced and not really that much faster. The indexes by and large suck ass, they somehow did worse than 40k's barring Eldar bringing broke as fuck.

The worst part is there's nothing to get excited for in future tomes. They're not reintroducing complexity or meaningful flavor battle traits. AORs are more of a narrative concept and there's plenty of shitty 3+ rolls plaguing the game that either your army hinges on or just doesn't do anything at all to be worth it. Underdog is another mechanic that's funny since it kicks in at battleround 2, many times I'll end up getting the bonus cp or bonus while having or starting to have board dominance.

I know it's not going to get better because they're repeating the same mistakes they did in the past and not really learning from it. Shit like foot combat heroes being shitty and overpriced, undervaluing movement tricks and overvaluing healing, pretending the game is a lot less killy than it actually is. I'd love to see a community backed 3e ruleset that gained traction.
>>
>>94195223
>people who bought into and played the game, are doing neither
I hope you enjoy Warhammer Fantasy/4e 40K, because you clearly didn't learn the lesson from those games. It turns out when no one wants to play the game, no one buys it, and then it dies.

So are there any words if they'll release a Skaventide-esque thing without the Stormcast half?
There's a lot of factions they could have paired them against that I'd have vibed with, but I'm just not a big Stormcast man.
>>
>>94198770
I'm torn on it. I recognize that it is currently much more cumbersome to some armies than others, and that many players may feel limited by it for no benefit. But I also think it is a cool structural feature of army building and I think it could be a lot of fun if only there were more rules interactions with it.
>>
>>94199024
Usually is quite a while before they release them separately and will always be way more expensive than picking up a starter box half on ebay or local buy/sell groups
>>
>>94199092
I appreciate that it brings something of a thematic level of army building (aside from the Heroes where their Regiments are "just take whatever lol") but, man, it gets a bit tedious after a while.
>>
>>94199118
Honestly I don't think I've ever seen anybody with Stormcast that didn't just come bundled with something else. If they're even painted more than base coat it's just the three color good nuff strat at that.
My brain had blocked out the idea somebody would be selling just the rats on eBay.

I want to get into AoS and AoS lore so i can pick an army that jives with me personally but from an outsider perspective it honestly seems like to me out of all the original AoS factions, Stormcast have so much effort put into their “cool factor” nobody else hardly gets any.

>>94201288
They get juicier gear, armor, lore and models than everyone else by so much more it’s ridiculous.

I like Stormcast at a glance but I don’t like feeling pigeonholed.

If you're not into spooky ghouls, goblins, monsters, and ghosts you're looking at the wrong game. 40k is the game for people who want 30 different rules profiles for guys who look the same but are carrying different flashlights

I'm trying to come up with a fun Fyreslayers scheme, my working theory is that unusual skintones might make them more interesting.

Which one do you prefer /aosg/?
>>
>>94202920
Right one with stone skin. (Left one looks overcooked.)
>>
>>94202920
left looks better
lighter tones on the beards only make them look more fake and by having both the beards and the skin a darker tone you can make any sort of rune or metallic or glowing effect much more visible

a dark beard like that can also be used as a canva to add small variations between units or for heroes, like a few streaks of white for oldfags, or tips ritually drenched in blood, or fiery effect within the hair for some heroes or wizards, or blue, some cold colours always help in making a fyreslayer scheme look more complete
>>
>>94202920
right side. you would need some bright yellow shading for the left one to work to make them look molten and lava-y like a magmadroth

do right side, give them yellow eyes. Look at the Dark Iron dwarves and blackrock orcs from WoW or WFB chaos dwarves for inspo. I recommend burnt umber colors like rhinox hide, dark khaki colors, reddish browns, light greys, dark metals and charcoal colors. if you want some brightness then go for gold or bright brass

cool for a test model, not for an army
statuecasts as an army would require way more attention
I once tried to think of a way for doing it as a scheme, but it's far from practical, just a mental thing

>if I had to come up with something that's slightly at odds with what others have done while playing into the aforementioned hard lines instead of treating them as more normal warriors I'd suggest coming up with a good recipe for bronze in various stages: pristine and polished, normal, partially oxidized, very oxidized
>so that you could play around in a way that's very visible the amount of reforging and the degree of "ruin" the individual stormcast has gone through

>one suggestion to ramp up their azyr-powered nature would be to unashamedly steal mtg's direction for their not!greek gods, with stars in the shadows and recesses and/or as if the clothes and banners were pieces of the night sky itself (painted by stippling ahead of everything), similar effect could be applied to some of their beasts to give the sense they're zodiacal manifestations

>with that in mind then it's a matter of drawing attention to the key areas: heads and weapons, giving the heads a marble/porcelain look would work easily and as for the weapons it's just a matter of making them silvery and with lightning effects (perhaps running for some length through their arm and body too)

>then you can use gold inlays, more lava or blood effect, and personal engravings in their armour to remember who they were before to add extra individual touches
>>
>>94203386
Fun concept. Seen Good executions but I doubt whole army could work. Especially heroes.
>>
>>94203552
That's kinda what I came to terms with for Statuecast, I wanted to do the brass statue covered in patina but I realized it would be hard to really pull that off in a consistently good (at least by my standards) way.

Instead I went with the same Warplock brass base, brightened it with some drybrushing. And added moss and things to it and went for more magical forest cast.

>>94202920
I painted mine with pixelated as inspiration but I still think I went a bit more on the traditional skin side.

People have been assuming based on the card "art" the warbands that show up are the ones that will be back so we'll have: Crimson Court, Kainan's Reapers, Headsman's Curse, Blade coven, Soulraid, Arenai, Thundrik's Profiteers, Shadeborn, Brethren of the Bolt, Hexbane's Hunters, Da Kunnin Krew, Rippa’s Snarlfangs, Ephilim's Pandemonium, Gorechosen, Khagra's ravagers, and Gnarlspirit pack

did he explain the TK?

>>94205716
I don't think he has any clue on Age of Sigmar, he was a big 40k player. I just happened to have like 3 killa kans, a warboss in mega armor, and the octarius terrain box. I think he just thought all the skeletons and undead guys were the same thing so he lotted them all together.

How much of a leap is it to bash Stormcast as S2D? Sigmarines are cheaper plastic, but I probably only want them as Warrior conversions. Do I just need enough spiky bits to make it convincing?
>>
>>94203386
always have and will hate super gimmicky army themes like that, unless they are MAJORLY converted to fit the theme better, and have some reasoning behind why they fit in AoS (or whfb or 40k)
And even when done really well i still question it
>>
>>94204212
>>94204219
still hate that they basically did nothing interesting with the poses or anything with the sculpts for them being new models
The only upsides is maybe the new knight arcanum sculpt and thats like it
To be fair the primaris versions of these were JUST about as bad, but thats a given for primaris. This definitely could and should have been more unique sculpts and should fit together more like a warband for warcry (i know you can just play all those models in warcry, but its not the same as like "the blacktalons" with new rules and some unique stuff)
>>
>>94206465
biggest issue is that SCE always have that distinct chestplate with sculpted in abs and pecs and that would absolutely stand out on a chaos warrior

Biggest question is are the standard sce on the same bases as warriors

You yourself said he was a 40K player. He probably built everything without reading the rules and assumed that you could buy individual models and not full units. That used to be an extremely common misconception.

I don't play AOS but the models are amazing to look at. Is there a market for people buying assembled and painted armies like in 40k? I'd love to buy and paint some but I'd need to resell them because I'm a poorfag.

I saw people selling painted stuff, but mostly in those "pro painted" memes.

Novellas or the whole novels?

>>94208843

Just find yourself one kit you really like and paint that for your shelf, I'm sure even a poor can do that.

The sort of midsized 200-300 point heroes are perfect for this, I'm talking stuff like Yndrasta, Radukar the beast, Treesong Revenant, Eternus and the Mangler squigs.

These aren't too expensive, costing usually about as much as a box of basic troops but are wonderful for painting.

>>94209383
Pretty sure it's Ghoulslayer, Gitslayer and Soulslayer + some short stories or novellas. Nothing is confirmed so far, but judging by authors on the cover and how BL releases its stuff.

The main problem with Ironjawz is that they all look like the same model in different sizes. They are missing less armoured boyz/boarboyz, armoured goblins and other miscelaneous monstrous units that aren't BRUTES BUT BIGGER or brutes but smaller.

That aside, I get that they wanted to make black orcs: the faction, but why change the look of the armour so radically? And why does it look so weird compared to literally every depiction of a heavily armoured orc?

>>94209578
They just give a completely different vibe.

40k refugee here, is 2k the standard in aos? i put a list together with the small amount ive got and was shocked to find that i already had a lot of points from nothing

a friend wants to learn the game and was interested in having 1k battles but i argued that its going to be skewed heavily towards certain armies. is it even worth having 1k battles?
>>
>>94209878

Yeah 2k is a standard game, and yes getting to 2k is generally a lot cheaper than in 40k.
>>
>>94209878

As for 1k games they are fun but indeed very swingy and some armies barely function at that size.
>>
>>94209895
well im liking it so far, means i dont have to fork out a fortune for another army at least

>>94209899
thought that might be the case. it was going to be skaven vs ironjaws or stormcast
>>
>>94209578
Stfu, they added a single squig model to the army and it's a fucking eyesore that ruins the vibe

So old warbands will return in big boxes of 4. Cards for all sixteen warbands are bundled and sold separately from the models.

What I'm getting from that is that before 2025 GW will be releasing a new core set, sixteen reboxed old warbands, two new warbands, and two new rivals decks. So that's what I can expect to see within the next couple months. With that in mind I feel decently informed on what the schedule for the new edition will look like at launch.

God, that's awful. It was bad enough that certain warbands were never sold separately, you had to buy a box shared with another warband. Now you have to buy 4 of them...

Makes sense in some fucked up kind of way, I kept wondering if they were gonna have em all in single boxes again. Kind of a bummer, would have been funny if they just released a box of every single stormcast warband though.

The last roadmap was shit in an entirely different way, but it at least provided some actual workable information, if you managed to decode the nausea inducing formatting. (next 3-4 battletomes, new spearheads, army boxes, narrative book, etc)

This is an entire placeholder image that just tells us they will release three standalone warbands (no hints) sometime over the course of the entire next year. It's like 6 words of actual new info set over a copy-paste background.
>>
>>94210953
Nah, those were more specific. This is basically just "things will release in 2025"

Sorry I'm just really excited. Getting to learn and read into a new army is fun! Also having an actual gameplan from step 1 feels fantastic! I can shut up for a bit though!

So this card box is basically just the character cards and warband scroll right? Since we have to use rivals for the 1 of 4 and no more faction decks. Neat, I guess. Hipefully they don't shaft the guys who didn't get physically re-released.
>>
>>94211361
It says 16 warbands on the box. 16 is also how many of the bands are getting repackaged. The 2 main box ones already have their cards.
>>
>>94211361
It annoys me.
>You want this one warband? You just have to buy another three warbands in addition to the one you actually want.
>You want the deck of cards to be able to play that warband? Well, if you want it you have to buy the cards for another fifteen warbands, twelve of which you don't have.
