I didn't see it.
Warhammer fantasy?More likeWarhammer.......... bad....
>>94833558we've been exposed, it's time to shut down /wfg/ forever
Now that I’ve properly based my giant, I don’t know what I want to do with him before he gets primed so I can paint him. The goal is to have him hold some resemblance to Polyphemus, or at least reference to him. I might cover up the other eye with greenstuff, and install a ball bearing into the forehead (which would be an eye), but beyond that I’m out of ideas. >TQAtlantis is cool and I like the armor the island of blood elves carry.
>TQYeah I'm thinking we're back
>decide to buy the first Gotrek & Felix Omnibus>wow this is actually pretty fun to read>Look up the next Omnibus on AmazonLet me guess, GW never reprints their books do they?
>>94833783I ran into the same problem with the official RuneScape books from like 2007. Faggots collectorbaiting sell them on ebay for like $200 now and I can't find rips of them to this day. Being a lore autist of any kind is a pain.
>>94833783>>94833806It’s in the mega but it drops off in quality quick so don’t say I didn’t warn you
>>94833489Each of the colours/schools of magic is basically just to bring models of the classic wizard archetypes into the game. White wizards are clerics, grey wizards are Gandalf, gold wizards are alchemists, etc. It's a bit strange that death magic and necromancy are distinct though. As for magic acting like an actual colour wheel? Not really. The different winds do mix together to form spells, but it's not like any lore is "between" two others, or a mix of them.
>>94834031Looks just like a gril in my med school class. Too bad I look like a fucking gnoblar
>>94834063anon you could have been the star of a hentai.
>>94834075Kek. I actually had a couple dates with a qt of that quality recently but it went nowhere. My autism is much more of a handicap than my goblinoid face
Give it to me straight: how is ToW doing sales wise? I love Warhammer Fantasy and really want to see it do well
>>94834119We don't know the exact numbers, but we can extrapolate that it's doing quite well. It's being played at my LGS and that's the only real metric that I care about.You shouldn't worry about sales. Paint some models, play some games and contribute instead.
>>94834119In the US, very well. Locally, my LGS has multiple TOW nights per week and has run a couple tournaments, meanwhile they made a throne out of the unsold Skaventide boxes as a gag and stopped buying new AoS stock because it just doesn't sell here. Supposedly AoS sells much better in the UK, probably in the faggier US cities as well.
>>94834119None of the boxes have sold out after dwarves in the US (most likely because they upped production for plastic), but aside from that we dont really know any figures. We can only really compare it to other side games like horus heresy and necrocum.
Bret characters are still sold out, what, 8 months later? My shipment from Chang will probably arrive by the time they restock.
>Black Orcs can't take Black Orc Boar Chariots unless they ally in a Nomadic Waaagh! Black Orc Bigboss (or Warboss) on a Black Orc Boar Chariot firstMild annoyance
>>94834275Take a second to imagine some taking a house key and jamming it down underneath your thumbnail. No reason, but just think about that for a second.
>>94834299Is this a gay British man's idea of being edgy?
>>94834303No. I just thought about it and wanted you to as well. And you did. Good boy :)
>>94834308Imagine being so cucked that you have to write legally innocuous innuendo for doing something mildly inconvenient to someone. Faggot ass country
>>94834318Zesty comment. Not from the UK btw ;)
>>94834340So you're just a faggot of your own volition then. I guess I can respect that. You're an odd one for sure
>all my friends play 40k or AoS at my LGS>try to get into AoS from 40k to be able to play more games, can't find an army or characters I really like, lore-wise>boomer LGS owner shows me his fucking SICK old Warhammer fantasy tomb kings army >fall in love with the bone, gold, and acrylic aesthetic but especially the Necrosphinx>spend the last two weeks doomscrolling the WF wiki, soaking up the lore and loving itI don't know why AoS doesn't hit these beats for me but WF reminds me so much of the older fantasy fiction I read as a kid, especially the Conan the Barbarian books in regards to the way it alludes to antediluvian places and names, that I can't help but love it. I'm sad I missed out on its heyday, but my LGS owner and I are both happy we found someone else who likes WF, at least. I really do believe GE made a mistake making things more "MMO-like" with sigmar, there's a certain classical fantasy tone here that hits so well that I haven't felt at all in the newer stuff. AoS reminds me of Kingdoms of Amalur or something, and that's not a good thing.
>>94834347Awful focused on another man having gay sex :O
>>94834350>WF reminds me so much of the older fantasy fiction I read as a kidIt was created by fantasy fans and metal heads from the 80s, so I'm not surprised it does.
>>94834350>try to get into AoS>can't find an army or characters I really like, lore-wiseI wonder why. If you're hungry for more WFB lore but not autistic enough for the books check out Book of Choyer, he does good lore stuff delivered in a WFRP-style way
If TOW died right now, would you still play it with the army books or move back to any other previous edition instead?
>>94834119My LGS liquidated everything this year because it sat on the shelves untouched for so long, and never restocked :(Pretty sure I was their sole TOW customer.
>>94834375thats uh, thats a big oof.
>>94834375No it didn't and it's not your picture.
>>94834374It won't, but if it died in TOW 4th or 5th edition or whatever I'd probably just stick with that unless my local group went back to classic WFB>94834375Concerntroll
>>94834403>>94834388Cope chuds
>>94834375Congrats, Anon. I'm sure you got some great deals
>>94834119It's doing well, but even if it weren't, that shouldn't stop you from playing whatever edition of WHF you want. I'm still playing 6th edition. There will always be people playing WHF.
>>94833783You can usually find new-old stock or basically-new copies of stuff on ebay for only a bit above RRP if you're a little patient, but yeah it's a pain in the arse innit. It's even better now where they do occasionally do reprints but they're always FOMO editions they only do one print run of and if you happen to have more in your life than obsessively monitoring GW's socials to plan what to buy next you might miss the second or third book in a series coming out. I doubt we'll get reprints of old Fantasy stuff now anyway, that ludicrous TOW novel they published clearly shows they intend to "update the IP for modern audiences" so things like heroic white males and women who do anything except save the day while exchanging quips with their black transfemme girlfiend or whatever will be as welcome as a fart at a dinner party.
>>94834101As a fellow autist I'll give you a tip anon, look for an overtly, performatively freaky one. In the same way that often quiet and shy-seeming chicks are actually legitimate psychofreaks in bed, a lot of the "I AM WOMAN BEND OVER AND HEAR ME ROAR" femdom types would really prefer a more typical modern equal-terms relationship and the leather & whip stuff is just a mask for her anxiety. The advantage of them is they tend to be a lot more comfortable being the one who makes moves and prompts you to give them what they want, rather than sitting there like a fucking Sphynx and expecting you to telepathically divine their wants and desires and then just walking away when you can't.You just have to play up the 'tism to hold off on sex until after she's past the phase where she'll try to peg you lol.
>>94834481>"I AM WOMAN BEND OVER AND HEAR ME ROAR" femdom typesKek. You might be onto something, I dated a militant lib feminist teacher in college and she had a surprisingly pleasant personality. And she was into my /fit/ stoic autism and found it endearing. The lib shit got very annoying though, I'm a massive chud.>play up the 'tism to hold off on sexNo problems there, I like to take things slow. I'm 90% sure that's what cost me that last qt I mentioned. If I wasn't a low self esteem sexual hangup cunt and just invited her back to my place she would've come.
>>94834481>"I AM WOMAN BEND OVER AND HEAR ME ROAR" femdom types>the phase where she'll try to peg you lol.It's fine to have your dreams and fantasies or whatever but you know this does not and has never existed, right?
>/wfg/>relationship advice from little toy soldier enthusiasts
>>94834552I wouldn't take advice from Anons but personally I'm in a successful relationship in 12 years and counting. It always baffles me how Anons are hell-bent on hiding their hobbies and acting like miniature wargaming is handicapping them. Most women were either mildly interested or at least friendly neutral towards my hobbies finding them oddly childish for someone of my type but generally harmless or even superior to watching games or playing vidya. Many were actually impressed when shown my armies in person since people that are not into wargaming have a hard time to imagine the scale. Crafty bitches seem to be naturally positive towards this kind of hobbies tho. I have a female co-worker that is into casual sculpting, 3D printing and jewellery-craft. She visited our place once and letting her into my hobby zone was like giving a fat kid a key to a candy shop. I think I could grab her by her chin and spit into her mouth and she wouldn't mind, she was totally bewitched.
>>94834617That's very cute but can we get back to what really matters - plastic little soldiers that is?
>>94834627Sure, feel free to post yours.
>TQI do not like High Elves.But the reveal looks fine. I'm sure if I did like them I'd be all up for the battalion box at least and in utter dread at what they're going to keep for Online Only sales.
>>94833517>TQThe battalion box is not bad but it failed to convince me to not buy Oathmark Infantry boxes instead.
>>94833517Khaine is one of the most compelling Gods in Warhammer Fantasy.>TQI'm fighting the urge to make a Caledor Army, but I'll see what they got in store first.
The HE battalion box seems pointless, again. Spearmen and regular archers don't seen good to me. I'd rather just spend the points on Lothern Sea Guard who are a bit better and are more expensive in points which lets me fill out Core easier.
>>94834689Battallion Box is not meant to give you a meta troop. Its meant to give you lots of basic infantry and something special for a good deal.
>>94833715Yes, you are right. I wouldn't blame NATO tho' - the whole eastern bloc narrative came from Soviet Union (us against them) - and NATO just accepted it for some reason. I guess it was a way to cope with guilt for selling half of Europe to Soviets against the will of those countries basically for trinkets and false promise of peace.
>>94834617Seconding this. Plenty of women can appreciate wargames stuff for the same reason nerds get bullied; crafting and painting tiny little things is a sterotypically feminine pursuit, and the subject being tanks and guns or whatnot doesn't change the underlying skills being used. Some don't like that, but plenty do.Here's my WIP pile; my wife's fit to tell me that she knows I'm just grinding through the Chaos Knights to get them done but that I really like the Marauder Giant, because she can tell which paintjob's being done with more care and attention.
>>94834762Thirding. My girlfriend isnt into nerd stuff at all but she likes my Warhammer, she appreciates the arts and crafts side of it (and thinks the art in the army books is sick). Being an artist herself she often gives me tips with regards to shading and colour mixing and whatnot. I even watch battle reports in her presence which she says she finds calming, like having a soap on in the background.The stigma around Warhammer only exists if you yourself are an insecure beta faggot.
The island of blood prints are my jam but I actually just want another island of blood. Paying $500 for 30 sea guard when I just want 10 is retarded. And my friends aren't gay enough to want to split high elves with me
>>94834689>core seems pointless>core is something to minimally "fill out" instead of being the CORE of your armyI think AoS is more your speed
So whom are the Knights Panther aligned with in TOW?I suspect the Wolfboys are Middenland.
>>94833602you could use warpaint: a line of tar covering his actual eyes and a rough eye symbol drawn in blood on his forehead
>>94834790Infantry is used more there than it is here.
>>94834796My army will have 132 infantry when it's finished, Inner Cities of Sigmar fields like 40 models total
>>94834796Core not being meta doesnt stop you from using lots of Core.Finally square bases are making a comeback and you feel obligated to make Monsterhammer 2.0 because the rules favor it. You have no ground to shit on 8th Ed or AoS if you are that metawhipped.
Are ogres fun to play?I bought a box of ogre bulls back in the day but never did anything with them
>>94834793the charecter you can get is the chapermaster of Middenheim which is always were the Panthers had the most power
>>94834834Middenheim gets so many important people!
>>94834790The only edition where people ever spent more than the absolute minimum on core was 8th.
>>94834814I wasn’t even the anon from before, but I do agree that the battalion boxes have been kind of lame. Chaos at least has the option of kitbashing everything in there, and I guess you own prettty much 1/3 of the dwarf range from the dwarf box (even if they are dwarves at the end of the day). The rest being core and mandatory chariots is lame.
>>94834793I think every Empire faction which has strong Sigmar influence can take them, but i dont they can't fight alongside White Wolves.
>>94834844*can
>>94833961>It's a bit strange that death magic and necromancy are distinct though.death/shyish magic IS technically necromancy as its spells allow the wizard to commune with dead spiritsit's not ultraevil necromancy because it doesn't involve enslaving souls to your will and raising undead, they could do that but it's taboo in their orderall other winds of magic probably have a similarly extreme version that's mixed with dark magic and achieves their taboos >dark azyr: tzeentch-like forceful rewriting of fate>dark ghyran: nurgle-like swarm magic>dark ghur: actual mutations and beastmen>dark aqshy: letting oneself become a living meltdown wizard>dark chamon: using living beings in alchemical exchanges and creating artificial life>dark ulgu: straight up mind control>dark hysh: magical intelligences reaching singularity and forming a hive mind with wizards? I'm grasping at straws here
>>94834789>Now you remember GW released a reprint of IoB for AoS priced like a Start Collecting boxI remember buying them for 60eur each and then reselling them 4 years later for 3-4 times more.
her mini will never live up to waifufags's expectations
>>94834836well it's one of the Empire's oldest cities and a head of one of the second largest religions in the Empire, the only thing it doesn't have going for it is being situated near a river navigatable by boats and barges
>>94834894I just need the basic Chinese stuff to kitbash my own cultivation army to attract real jade beauties
