>the upcoming Plague Warrioryou mean the monopose blightking alternate sculpt(s)?
Reposting iamge about rumours from last thread.Im dying for Warhammer Day. They MUST show us new minis.
>>96564306I hope the gargant matriarch has a funny bra like two stormcast shields or a broken endrin
>>96564306I really hope that chariot doesnt try anything toooo funny. If it looks good I'll for sure buy it, but Ushtabi bowmen for OBR is a concept that im already sold on. now to see what the pity hero is...
>>96564306I curious about what new stuff the Lizards could get. They obviously still need new Temple Guard, and the Oldblood on foot and Skinks could also use a refresh. But otherwise everything else they have is new. So unless they get some outright new units I'm not sure what else to expect. A new dino would be cool.
>>96564734>Oldblood on footdont Jaws of Itzl already fill that nieche?
>>96564734We need a new Dread Saurian, the old one is discontinued. A Coatl would be cool too.
>>96564734I want to see swarms return and a super big dino/prehistoric reptile (dreadsaurian, sauropod or giant pterosaur)
the sigmarite century of humiliation
Helsmiths better get some interesting Black Library representation
>>96564306>>96564562The Gargant Matriarch needs to be Mega Gargant size. I will not accept something smaller.
>>96564767Specifically referring to this one>>96564782Shit I'm retarded. And I call myself a lizard fan. I forgot about those. Ideally a Coatl that doesn't look like shit.>>96564826Swarms with the return of the prophet of Sotek would be cool. I love a jacked skink.
>>96564856You just reminded me of one of the old thread questions, but I would love to see a book about the chaos dwarfs from a hobgrots perspective as he tries to flee from slavery, with him talking in goblin ebonics the whole time.
Sigmars toll, does anyone have a link for it?
>>96564306Hoping the ushabti archer is a multi kit for a melee unit as well. Some 40mm 5 man mir kainan inspired units is the dream.In all honesty my expectations are rock bottom. Don't think they'd give a unit a scourge scroll unless their tome doesn't change much, so probably another 3 years of mortek and shaper sucking ass and katakros being a must take that eats 500 points, 20 models squeezed inside a bubble.Better yet they probably wrote it when kavalos were good for 3 months so they'll have rend 0 and hit on 4s now.
>>96564945Did the one Anon posted die?
Hurry up and give me my fat Ogor bitches, James.
>>96564856Lol it's all gonna be faggot shite anyway about how they're diverse and inclusive despite being evil
>>96564856Isn't it funny how this art kinda smooths out the more janky elements of the actual models to make them look more sensible
>>96564945It's still too early bro, wait at least 1 or 2 months
>Why yes, I want swarms with my SeraphonThere's already enough horde factions
>>96565974Swarms are kind of the opposite of a horde unit ironically
A call for help, anyone have the Ushoran novel?Hoping for some luck
>>96565972It was already posted
>>96565830I think that's called smoke Anon
>>96566086Good luck.https://litter.catbox.moe/r9qg3evu8qao7poe.pdf
>>96566171>https://litter.catbox.moe/r9qg3evu8qao7poe.pdfThanks, this will be very helpful
>>96564224Soon
>>96566133I suppose you mean the episode has already come out, right? But what I mean is that there isn't a link to watch or download it yet.
>>96566326No, that Anon linked a download few threads ago
>>96564734Saurus guard, skinks, oldblood, skink priest, stegadon. Stegadon and the skink priest hold up really well but are getting up there.Then personally I think the ripperdactyl has ages terribly, but the terradon actually holds up really well. They could also bring back stuff like the coatl or razordons.We'll probably just get a pity hero though, most likely an updated oldblood or skink priest.>>96564767That's a sunblood, which is supposed to be more tanky but it doesn't make that much difference practically
>>96564224The rumour engine showed cloth and smaller shields, so they'll just be shorter and less armoured. I'm guessing the new Blightkings will have a more distinct helmet style, probably more chivalric given the persistent AoS depictions of them and a want to distinguish all varieties of chaos warriors.
>>96566555Am I correct in seeing the nurgle fly shield as a bit curved like this or is it a trick of the mind?
>>96566589And here's the sneak peek, I keep going back and forth on whether it is
>>96564306Guy with bow ruins the whole thing.Breaks the whole regal badass important enough for a personal banner-guy majestically advancing in stoic oil-painting-pose vibe.
Have any photos or scans of Helsmiths of Hashut battletome been shared here?
>>96566598Its a mock up not really a leak of the mini itself. Which thank god, if they wanted to go for body horror a centipede chariot is not the fucking way to go about it. Doubly so far a hero.
>>96566630scalpers are hording the boxes so dont expect em anytime soon
>>96566589Not at all?
>>96566715Nah, looking at it I can see where anons getting his ref from. It’ll be interesting to see it revealed.
Any sign of the Nighthaunt tome?
>>96566644fucking scalper man lmao. Also who is buying these? 300 burgerbucks for a spearhead + battletome, the contents of which you can probably buy separately for cheaper in like 2 months, let alone for a good discount when the spearhead itself comes out in around 5. Are scalpers retarded or are there really people out there paying 100% markup for essentially early access ?
>>96566793I have no idea if anyone is buying, but it is baffling for sure. The perceived value of the box is completely gone at +50% MSRP, it's not as if it even holds anything unique. Makes me think the scalpers are just bluffing and they'll be forced to lower prices in a month or so when the full release happens.
In another day for cryptic Fyreslayer teases, someone asked Whitefang straight up if Fyreslayers are getting their own battletome without any other dwarves, and he posted this gif.
>>96566863Why would he do that? Doesn't he know that being reminded of the Hobbit movies makes me sad?
Why did aosg seeth over this sheme, i think it's cool
>>96566863You see, that's a problem with sharing info by paraphrasing instead of screenshotting, you framed the answer as if the exclusion of the other dwarfs were the central point of the question.
>>96566881I just think it would be better in anything but green.
>>96566881Of course you would think that, pastel colored power armors rotted your brain long ago.
>>96566886It is the central point though? All speculation around Fyreslayers for months, since squatting is obviously not happening has been centered around whether they're getting souped/merged/expanded with other dwarfs.
>>96566863>>96566886so kharadrons + ghokemkind and grimnirfolks + grugnifolks?
>>96566881people were more baffled by the choice rather than seething I would say
>>96566930you forgot about root kings
>>96566943They've always been a Sylvaneth auxiliary. Their whole thing is Dispossesed who joined Sylvaneth insread of going to CoS
>>96566925>It is the central point though?If it was the central point it wouldn't be something put in parentheses.How can you be sure the gif answer is to be read as non-fyreslayer dwarfs not letting skayers fight for them and joining them, and not simply that the fyreslayer won't let other factions fight for them and indeed get tome and models?
goddamnit I want to see the full Kurnothi range already
>>96566943No, I didn't, they're not important, and they fit under grugni dwarfs anyway.
>>96566967I don't.
>>96565828>diverse and inclusive despite being evilyou act like those are different things>>96565830what do they smooth out in that art?
>>96566899>pastel coloredi'm not sure you know what a pastel is, anon
>>96566967I wonder what they’re official artwork will look like
>>96566998do you know what a pastel color is?
>>96567011Like Spitewood/Beastgrave/whatever.
>>96566960>If it was the central point it wouldn't be something put in parenthesesThe parentheses emphasize that when he says Fyreslayer battletome/minis he means ONLY a Fyreslayer battletome/minis making that in fact, central to the question being asked. >How can you be sure the gif answer is to be read as non-fyreslayer dwarfs not letting skayers fight for them and joining them, and not simply that the fyreslayer won't let other factions fight for them and indeed get tome and models?I didn't say anything like that at all, I think it's open to interpretation personally, even if there's a good chance it wasn't meant to be.
>>96567011Like all the already existing art of them across Underworlds, Cursed City and Soulbound
>>96567015>a soft and delicate shade of color>pale and light in colorobviously you aren't referencing pastel as a medium, rather than as a color type, because that would make absolutely zero sense in context
>>96567054They don’t have any in soulbound
>>96567073They do, Cursed City expansion has male version of the antler elf as one of the class pictures.Come to think of it some other art from main AoS also had more antler elfs, might have been Dawnbringer
>>96567059>the ESL went and copy pasted the first shitLMAO
>>96567092>asked for a definition>pulled two>this makes me an ESLi also took a definition from merriam-webster, you argument-addicted retard
>>96567109>>this makes me an ESLYes
>>96564306>>96565381I don't want another 'big guy' unit, we already have stalkers and immortis. Just give us the archer foot soldiers. As for the chariot hero, Jesus just don't let it be a special character.
>>96567171>Just give us the archer foot soldiers.I'd settle for a ballista or something if GW doesn't want to give the army too many ranged attacks. I think that could look cool as well if it's modeled like a bone construct.
>>96567171>>96567201I'd dig a crossbone balista hero
>>96567221Why do you fags always need special heroes. Why can't it just be a fucking unit. Why doesn't GW want it to be a unit. People but multiple units they don't buy multiple special characters.>>96567201> Too many ranged attacksWe currently have> An endless spell> Ranged attacks from a monster people don't take that are shit anyway> A grossly over costed, slow, and very mid artillery piece, especially compared to what Chorfs just got (better profiles, better save, better range, better special abilities, half the price)
>>96567026they called out whitefang in the context of other leakers being more active, the gif refers to himself.
>>96567256Who the fuck special character retard? Not evey hero is named
>>96567221>little bone arms specifically for reloadingHoly kino
>>96566930yep, boole confirmed itsoup confirmed
>>96566930>>96567308Why the fuck does this attemtionwhore always delete his shit? So annoying.Anyway here it is, excuse the phoneposting.
>>96567092He's literally right...
>>96567348So basically the rumored Nu-Dispossessed army that had to be shelved because of TOW will join Fyreslayers in a soup tome. Which is pretty much exactly what all the rumors have been pointing at. I'm cool with it, though holy hell 4E really is the Dwarf edition.
>>96567397>I'm cool with it, though holy hell 4E really is the Dwarf edition.hopefully it will be a short edition too
>>96567397Yeah he's spelling out what everyone has been speculating about since the fyreslayers not getting a tome rumour dropped. Not much all that new stuff.Also guess we now know why idk got such a shit release, silly elfs didn't realise it was the edition of the dwarf. Better luck next time!
>>96567417SHORT!?
I'm gonna be here when bt fyreshitters drops with a new foot hero.
>>96567480Yep, just like how Skaven were absolutely never going to be the starter army for 4E and Chorfs were never coming to AoS. Leakers with 100% track records are NEVER right.
>>96567480>I'm gonna be here when bt fyreshitters drops with a new foot hero.and i hope the ogor refresh barely changes anything
>>96567491they already even previewed a new bareass dwarf, but go ahead and think there's gonna be not 1, not 2, but 4 full size releases coming out.
>>96567530We have 12 Battletomes left to cover, 4 of them being big releases isn't even a weird proportion.
>>96567492>I hope the ogor refresh barely changes anythingThat's the way things are looking now actually. The whole "they'll be cavemen" thing was a specific response by whitefang that everyone just ran with. They'll look largely the same
>>96567492>and i hope the ogor refresh barely changes anythingNurgle wave is just old FW models in plastic
>>96567530Considering how 3.0 pretty much had its logistics fucked and couldn’t pull through, I wouldn’t be surprised if we get some recompense for that by bigger releases in the later half of the edition.
>>96567550Isn't FW nurgle jsut unit of 3 frogs and a GUO identical to the modern redesign?
>>96567546True, it's looking like a more or less conventional update, just with no Leadbelchers and an increased focus on Maw Worship over Gorkamorka.
>>96567568Will probably be somewhere inbetween skaven and seraphon in terms of aesthetic difference, not totally the same and with a few tweaked elements, but still largely retaining the core design of the faction while adding women
>>96567558Yeah. It's been leaked now by multiple sources that the 3rd edition campaign (which got axed after the first book, in part because of BoC getting banished) was also going to focus on Dwarf vs Skaven stuff for a while, culminating in a release of new Dispossessed models and Dwarf Soup.ToW happens, dwarf soup gets canceled, Dawnbringers has to be hastily re-written in parts, Dispossessed have to go bye bye as well, GW goes back to the drawing board and decides they might as well get something out of the shelfed dwarf models they've already made by putting them with Fyreslayers. Like six months ago, one of the more retarded leakers gets word that there's no "Fyreslayer" battletome on the release list, decides to cause a small panic by insinuating they're about to be squatted. TLDR 4chan actually got more correct leaks about this situation (multiple leakers saying Fyreslayers were getting expanded/rebranded instead of removed) months ahead of TGA, for once.
>>96566967Kurnoth should be dark, primordial and brutal god of the hunt. As shown in Dark Harvest novel through Old Stag aspect. Kurnothi should be their own faction with their own battletome. They are going to be make Kurnothi release a Sylvaneth subfaction with one hero and two units. Fuck that. PRAISE HIRCINE
>>96567622>TLDR 4chan actually got more correct leaks about this situation4chan didn't get a single leak about the situation, just a retard spamming his own fake rumor that was already wrong two lines in
>>96567669>Kurnothi should be their own faction with their own battletome.No, they shouldn't, there's no fucking point in separating the tree elves from the wood elves.
>>96567678agreed
>>96567670There was another guy on 4chan who didn't get nearly as much attention, who just said Fyreslayers were getting rebranded/renamed several times and left it at that. As for the other guy, just the fact that he predicted Dispossessed units being added to Fyreslayers makes him more right than wrong, so far.
>>96567685Speculations aren't leaks.
>>96567685I'm speaking in relative terms here also, TGA was in an absolute panic to the point that you couldn't talk about Fyreslayers there for months, so in that regard 4chan having some sanity about the situation already puts them ahead. I just thought it was an interesting reversal to how things usually go.
>>96567691We'll see when the actual new units get revealed how much he was guessing.
>>96567698He was guessing everything, if he wasn't guessing he wouldn't have gotten shit wrong.
>>96567718You seem really upset about this one random guy, for some reason. Legit rumors do sometimes get small things wrong, we're just spoiled a bit by our main rumormonger (Whitefang) being so impeccable.
>>96567737I don't like people parading around random 4chan guesswork that was already shown to be wrong as if it held any ounce of credibility.No random speculation retroactively becomes a leak if it ends up being correct about one of many wrong guesses.I'm sure you're familiar with broken clocks.
Why are Blades of Khorne so fucking underdeveloped as an army compared to the rest of chaos?
>>96567806They’re more developed than you think, it’s just that they’re models look old.
>>96567756I just think my perspective is different from yours because I'm used to seeing rumors that are only partially correct, and I'm not bothered discarding them when they're no longer useful either. He got an AoR wrong, which is not that big a deal, it's something that could plausibly have been changed from playtesting leaks.Time will tell either way, it's not really a big deal.
>>96567806Are they? They always seemed to be the most complete together with nurgle because of end times + aos launch. A lot of the models have that 1st edition weirdness, but still. Tzeentch seems to be the most fucked one to me.
>>96567806only Maggotkin has a developed modern looking chaos army of the big 4.
>>96567806Wdym?
>>96567806Because it essentially has no demons. Only mortals are from AoS
>>96567171Yes stalkers & immortis are like monstrous infantry more than elite infantry. The army doesn't really have elite infantry with the size and statting of mortek, and given how they handled the cohorts & wardens rend, I don't believe they want 10 man 25mm/32mm units to have good stats.>>96567201Don't think they operate like that, the rules team probably is reactive to concepts or models. This edition we have cities bringing models back from the dead more reliably than ossiarchs so both flavor and "balance" are kinda dead at this point anyways.>>96567221I mean I'll never say no to another hero but going to be real depressing if that's the only thing we get.>>96567256They likely don't take the place of each other. If you didn't get a foot hero or whatever it wouldn't mean you would have gotten a unit instead, you would just get nothing.
>>96567917there are plenty of 10 man units with non conditional rend, which is really your complaint.
>>96567806They absolutely fucking aren't, even after all the models they lost.
>>96567952It’s a bit funny how only tzeentch has chaos spawn
>>96567952I'm anxious about the rumor that Blightlords are being canned, but the MoN range really does need some attention. There's so little there.
>>96567987Aren't they STD too?
>>96567820The "partially incorrect rumors" are most often than not incorrect in something miniscule compared to what they get right.The fake rumor you, or someone else, keeps bringing up started off with a /pol/-tier joke, mentioned stuff we already knew was happening, repeating a piece of speculation lifted from TGA, and got wrong the only 2 pieces of new info he brought up and it's not even something that could have been reasonably changed afterwards because he had the gall to announce he was speaking about an already finalised and printed book.There comes a point when a rumor can be reasonably considered falsified, and if you have no such threshold set for a rumor but keep making more assumptions about how it's correct even when wrong then you're not talking from any perspective other than a delusional one.
>>96567995>There's so little there.To be fair, it's barely felt, blightkings are just that fucking good.More than a lack of more infantry choices I think the one glaring issue is how the monstrous choices are either GUOs or special characters.Turn the maggoth lords into generic units and generic characters and I think the army would feel already rejuvenated.
>>96568018*shrug*I wrote off the rumor as probably fake when the KO tome was revealed and decided it was worth a second look given todays revelation. I'm still not convinced by it, but I'll enjoy comparing it to the actual units that get revealed later. Meanwhile, you seem to be seething about it on cooldown, I'd say you're way more invested in it than I am.
>>96567995wdym, maggotkin models mog all the others in terms of diversity and modern looks.
>>96568054Project whatever seethe you want from people telling you that rumor is bullshit, facts speak for themselves.
>>96567936I just assume the worst to be the default, the writer of SBGL, NH, Chorfs and the SoG OBR update has a pretty decent chance he's going to do the tome as well. Mortek are more than likely going to stay rendless.
>>96567806Anon, as a huge BoK fan, they aren't. It's the opposite. They were close to having 8 Bloodbound Gorechosen Heroes prior to the removal of the Exalted and Aspiring Deathbringers.They got 4 Infantry, 1 Cavalry and 1 monster and this is only counting the Bloodbound again, and not the "Claws or Karanak.In fact, they are the only faction with 3 diferent types of a Greater Daemon. Not even DoT is that close
>>96568057It's the selection of non-hero units that appears lacking, at least in comparison to other armies in the GA.
>>96566881I'm ambivalent on the green, but the fire effect on this mini is pretty great. He's also one of the only ones that did glowing runes, which I like
>>96568080NTA, there's only so many versions of "frothing retards with an axe" you can make before it becomes redundant.
>>96567995you should be anxious anyone playing with the old blightkings will be executed.
>>96568037>Turn the maggoth lords into generic unitswhy, they would just be worse and 3 of them already cover every role. Nurgle has enough enhancement carriers with the DP, LoA, and GUO. This change would effect the army one iota, no one would even notice.
>>96568060if you want to play some brick of infantry go run cos dwarves or play tow.
>Spiderfang no longer available on the webstore
>>96568203>towNot even with a rented dick.
>>96568080Yeah they barely got any mortal infantry, except from the Blightlords and the Warcry one.
>>96564224>decide to check the new MoN rumours>the dude says Pestigor ShamanSounds too good to be true. Idk why, I like the idea of monogod Gors but sounds too good
>>96568480Pestigors were confirmed by Whitefang ages ago.
>>96567917If they already have monstrous infantry and normal infantry I don't want 'elite but not monstrous' infantry. It will either have zero role (as either unit on either side of the fine is more efficient at either job) or it will be too good, at which point it's just 'you VILL buy ve NEW THING' bullshit from GW before they point it correctly 8 months later.
>>96564224I'm assuming the new guys will be more armored all over, the current blight kings are super varied comparatively. I imagine whatever new stuff comes out will still be similar but probably more plated up with guts and shit popping out the sides and back.Also got the first of the Glotkin boys painted up.
I'm reading the Ushoran novel, and good lord I hate the whining protagonist so goddam much. I'm not even halfway done and i already want to set it down. The actual peeks we get into Ushoran and the FEC are dope though
>>96568584>BL novel's protagonist is some faggot instead of the actual character the novel is supposed to be aboutWow, just like every time
>>96568552They'll have different helms. Those are StD
>>96568686I mean, could go the Vermintide route which is the more classic nurgle warrior design.
swifthawk agents are coming back lmao
>>96568708I can see GW doing it purely for the memes
>>96568708Wouldn’t surprise me if it’s a hero, war machine, and dual build infantry to give GW an excuse to finally cut Dark Elves out and give CoS its own elves.
>>96568584Unfortunately Dale Lucas will continue to be given work.
When i was younger i used to realy enjoy the process of painitng, but now i'm frustrated at the thing being not finished yet
>>96568702I hope it's a mix, even if I don't like the whole idea every Nurgle warrior is super bloated with gangrene.
>>96568584>>96568620Honest question, why the fuck does GW do this? Why just not write Ushoran and FEC point of view a good 80% or 90% of book. Why market is a FEC book when it Ushoran/FEC are only like 10 or 20% of book. Shame Hedonites never got a novel, I would love a Glutos book.
>>96568708Literally who
>>96568768depends on the model but I get what you mean, painting gargants is misery for me because I have to look at this half finished cunt the whole time.>>96568795The leaks mentioned HEAVY armor so I imagine that's the route they're going down, probably with some generics rotters (again, like Vermintide) or some generic low tier fodder mortal infantry. (which might explain the little shield we saw in the 4 images)
>>96568796BL writers are incompetant chacks and struggle to write anythign other than generic human PoV
>>96568816I mean, if you read Ushoran parts of book, they are awesome. So writer can write FEC but chooses not to.
What happens here?
>>96568702They're going to be unique from chaos warriors
Fucked up that HoS never got a bespoke warband in Warcry.
>>96568848Warcry was a really interesting way to explore various aspects of Chaos, how various cultures and civilizations might view Chaos.
>>96568796I loved that Dawnbringers short story where Glutos is tasting Kingsblood. A full novel would be pure gold.
>>96568848>>96568862Speaking of, does anyone have an idea of when the Helsmiths are getting their Warcry rules?
>>96568841wouldn't armored nurgle guys effectively still just be chaos warriors. Just more nurgley in design, l
>>96568922I remember GW saying on the reveal stream that they would come shortly after the chorfs launched officially. They also said “fairly soon” when revealing IDK as the next book and that was 6 months, though.
>>96568885That one was fun>even the ogres were susceptible to the tainted wine>but glutos just got a momentary buzz from itOP fat fuck
>>96568216>it's trueDamn. They had a good run. At least the arachnarok is still thers.
>>96568831KO instal glass floors to watch the other two retards fight on the ground
>>96569079Facts.
>>96569058Loved it. Hell, I adored the way Ushoran and Courts were written in 3 Dawnbringers short stories. Same with Glutos. Whoever wrote those stories should have been the person to write Ushoran novel instead of this hack.Maybe some day we get Glutos novel. I can hope at least.
>>96569087It's crazy seeing aos memes from so long ago that brainlet/big brain wojaks were the new hotness
>>96568831How are the gonna give us a name like this and not tell us literally anything about it. Like how is this important enough to be THE prism
>>96569236>>96568831Forgot the closeup fug
>>96568831My Gloomspite Gitz hail from the Onoglop Swamp in Ghyran
>>96568811Basically just the old High Elf Seaguard/Sky Cutter kits. They got fluffed for a long time as being basically the Mailmen for Cities of Sigmar, even showing up in BL novels sometimes.
>>96568811They were actually pretty popular in 1e due to picrel being an alt starter from 2016 to 2e
What's the best way to run Gryph Hounds? Bundle them with lots of ranged units to counter deepstrike/repositioning?
>>96565790You dare challenge him?
>>96566526The ripper is the exact same kit though.
Now that the dust has settled, why did it flop?
If gw charged /you/ with coming up with a new helsmiths unit that ISN'T a refresh of a previously existing chorf kit, what would you suggest?
>>96569305none of that crap is swifthawk.
Anyone find any good 3rd party proxies for a Maggoth Lord? Just trying to see my options.
>>96569341no, you just stick one in as a screen.
>>96569363based retard
>>96569351I know, that's what makes it so perplexing. The Terradon head (beak?) holds up nicely, and then the ripperdactyl is an absolute abomination.>>96569360Kek>>96569361I'd do something based on the aqrabuamelu, ancient akkadian scorpion centaurs. No idea how you'd fit it into their lore though.
>>96569361Daemon infused forklift.
>>96569297>>96569305I meant the poster saying 'never say never' who the fuck is that person.If it's not Whitetroon who cares
>>96569381He's quoting whitefang iirc. He said never say never about Greenskinz, Swifthawk, Wanderers or something
>>96569360It didn't flop it cleared out the stock
>>96569389

>>96569261No, no, no. You need to put a 1st edition map for that!
>>96569373Where'd you get this from? I wanna look at some of the other 2015 webstore microfactionsAlso by the way for anyone keeping up with the dorf stuff, looks like whitefang is corroborating it, so not just going off boole now.
>>96569438After Spire of Dawn released they had different keywords, same in the GA Order book. Cope.
>>96569470The original app has all but the first wave of compendium warscrolls https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gamesworkshop.ageofsigmar
>>96569361Maybe some kind of half-engine/suit that Chorfs who have “defaulted” on their debts or have fallen completely out of their master’s favor are stuck into. It’s propelled and powered by daemons like other daemon engines but requires the animus of a living being to start and maintain locomotion. Units of 3 or 5, imagine something like the Space Marine Centurions or Votann Thunderkyn but the pilot is suffering the entire time.
>>96569379This and it's being operated by a hobgrot doing the Smirk
>>96569470I'm not a fan of 10 years of setting being retconned for a traditional separation of races because muh Warhammer fantasy did it. The cosmopolitan nature of CoS was the only original thing AoS had to distinguish itself and now it's gone.
>>96569507Fair take, but this was almost always the plan since GW takes fucking forever to fully update ranges. Old Dwarf models are probably going to be completely phased out, as will the old elf and Empire models that are still kicking around and be replaced by wholly new Cities models that match the current aesthetic. I wouldn't be surprised if the remaining elf models are all phased out if/when Tyrion and Malerion get their own factions.
>>96568584I will never forgive them for the Lauka Vai novel. She's barely in the fucking thing.
>>96569379>>96569424>>96569486All pretty cool ideas actually >>96569507Yeah it made the "basic human" faction decently original, since it wasn't just basic humans. I guess now they got a kind of early gunpowder thing going which isn't done much I guess, but still they're pretty basic 'good guy human kingdom'. Oh well, they can always write up some elves and dorfs having grown too fond of city life to truly live among their own kingdoms now, not all hope is lost for jolly cooperation.
Making Cities a Human faction takes away a lot of it's aesthetic. Stormcasts are lightning-magic humans, Kharadron are teched up Dorfs, Lumineth magic-methhead elfs etc.So Cities should be the low fantasy versions of all the races that have to work together to compensate.If the Dorfs are leaving as well they better at least add new races to CoS.
if cities isnt completely human by the end of wave 2 then GW is cringe
>>96568203desu I'd just do the best option and make a clean cut. I never understood why people flip flop between gw games if they don't like their business practices, why would I keep giving them money if I don't like how they run their games. I already buy mostly second hand because it's easy enough to find most sprues if you look a little bit.
>>96569529>was almost always the planNo, Eight Lamentations was a big literary/audio push for what the setting meant in that respect. GW probably decided to scrap the WHF stuff with TOW, probably. The decision to go with a racial division was probably middle management interference because of 40k's formatting and sales performance transparency I guess. The original vision for AoS definitely isn't what we have now.
>Broken Realms features pogroms against City Aelves >4th edition removes all Aelves from cities >2nd edition coalitions are gone Chuds won
>>96569599>The original vision for AoS definitely isn't what we have now.The Head Fanatic needs to unretire.
city aelves.....
>>96569578GW is cringe regardless.
>>96569361Hobgrot with cart full of discarded Daemonsmiths' trinkets. Provides his kin with power that any sane Duardin would deem too risky to consider
>>96569672
>>96561574Well, they seem to be missing that release date. I can't say I'm surprised. Very on-brand.
>>96569820Speaking of Soublound- does anyone have either of the "Ruins of..." books? I've had no luck tracking down pdfs of them.
>>96569761Still funny that gw released a full size update/refresh for wood elves at the tail end of 8th edition only to trash the whole setting like 2 months later and split up the faction.

>>96569556CoS removing everything to be Fantasy IG is the biggest mistake and literally goes against it's thematic.No I don't want "normal humans against the insurmountable odds" I want my kitchen sink city-state where Elves, Humans and Dwaves fight under the same banner.
>>96570001I'd like a racisl kitchen sink army too but I also want them to all dress the same
>>96569609>4th edition removes all Aelves from citieDidn't whitfang jsut confirm city elfs?
>>96570001That's giving IG too little credit since they at least have ogryns and ratlings(Future) CoS are like if IG only had one ogryn as a character
>>96570018If Swifthawk return it'll be in LRL no doubt just like Phoenix Temple
>>96570020I wouldn't be surprised if CoS gets halflings and more Ogors at some point.
Is this just Rakarth and pallid witch flesh?
>>96570048Ask him yourself. Use Google lens next time. We aren't going to able to accurately tell you what a recipe is based on a photo because we have no way to tell what the lighting is doing to the colours

>>96570153AoS isn't a wargame, why would they have rules for a specific combination of units reflecting the setting be it something of army construction or narrative importance
>>96569820What if they forgot?
>>96569820>>96570202The release date wasn't confirmed by the studio, it was posted by some influencer they had given a review copy to. But of course they linked to the review where he dropped the date. So basically it's just everyone involved here being a tard.
Here's how to save CoS' mixed race stuff>New Aelves (in CoS gear) with zweihanders>New Duwarves (in CoS gear) with tower shields and spearsNamed Elf & Dwarf duo that buffs Elves & Dwarves>Guns for everyone

>>96570153>>96570184>i miss (army of renown) and (regiment of renown)Nigga open a fucking book for once
>>96570292BasedAlso give them the chaos dwarf bazooka if HoH have to use those godawful razers
>>96569820How is Soulbound? The things that would interest me most are Wight or probably a Skink. Of course both those are described as being most limited in motive and personality
>>96570292gay, no elf fan or dwarf fan wants that
>>96570543I'm neither
>>96569926hobgrots you could get away with as few as 0-20, they dont really do much besides cheap screens or objectives, they have almost no interactions with anything in the army, and for 20-30 points more you get boltboyz or monsta killaz which are worlds bettergutrippaz are a different story, i'd say most lists probably want at least 1 big unit of 20, which serves as your main midboard bait piece and buff concentrator. they're cheap enough that a good argument can be made for 2x20 running a dual push two sided board with supporting elements, since everything in KB has gotten so many points discounts. 10 man units without buffs wont be able to kill, but they are still 20 wound tarpits that you can shuffle around the board relatively easily, though most people prefer mosta killaz for the MSU role i think due to their better anti monster utility and better buffless combat profile. but if you can get gutrippaz for like $20/10 vs monsta killaz $60/8, you'll do just fine with the gutrippaz. the trick is that a lot of the armies punch comes from boltboyz and monsters like the sludgeraker, kragnos, or the mirebrute, so make sure you leave enough points to include at least a few of them. vulture as well but the vulture is a bit harder to use with its massive base which is a real problem that doesnt show up on paper.
>>96569361enslaved beastmen, ogroids and drogrukhs, a mixed unit where they all wear chains, collars and have their horns sawn off, on top of using their chains as flails they have hellfire batteries attached to their collars which the helsmith can detonate at will
>>96570292this is the answer
Ey nerds, I'm working on my Glotkin boys. I've got 2 of 3 done but I'm wondering, what color should Ghurk be? I could go for standard kinda green color, maybe more pale bloaty skin like his brothers, I'm goin' for an ocean theme too so maybe some turqoise or blues. Gimee some advice here anons. (I won't be able to do it for like 4 days since I'm travelling but getting ideas now to let em simmer)
>>96568708Ngl, give them some more piratic/nautical themes, and its a perfect replacement for the whole dark elve pirate thing, and you get flying maritime elves to go with flying marine dwarves
>>96567669Kurnothi and Sylvaneth should be in the same book, but Kurnothi should have enough units to field a full army by themselves, and Sylvaneth should have rules that le them do stuff other than scenery-based tricks
>>96570669paint him in the reddish pink--orange to look like a naked hermit crab
>>96570683I think what people don't really understand yet, because AoS is still a young game comparatively, is that this is the direction GW will inevitably go in. Every army over time is going to get expanded with new models, new units, new subfactions until eventually they get to SC or average 40K/whfb army levels where they have so many units that 80% of updates are just cycling out old models with replacement versions. That is the vision, that is the plan. Every once in a blue moon GW will shake things up with a new army, or shuffling subfactions around between books or whatever, but either way making every battletome and army range massive is absolutely the plan.
>>96570712Hrmmm, crab colors might not be a bad idea...
>>96569970> Heroes?> Those units for queers?> No thanks I'll take more slittas niggaExtremely based list> B-bu-but you give your opponent extra CP!!!Caring about CP? Might as well wear a dress to give easy access to your asshole, faggot.
>>96570683If you made a venn diagram of deer-centaur enjoyers and fags, it would be a circle, which is why they need to keep that shit as far away from Sylvaneth as possible.
>>96570863Perfect for elves then Doubly so for hipster elves
>>96569761I never realized the Griffon can be built with two heads. Why is that not the default?
>>96570886It's a good thing sylvaneth aren't elves
>>96570683I would smooch the cute deer boy
>>96570956Even GW calls them Elves like every other week.
>>96570084Okay then the recipe is basecoat naggaroth night, shade waystone green, layer ryza rust, edge highlight teclis blue.
>>96571040Aelves, akshullay. Legally distinct and enforceable.
>>96570683Dude, you're going to be banned for uploading a furry image.
>>96570292>>96570320If GW adds Duardin and Aelves to the mainline CoS and not through additions like Ironweld and Collegiate Arcane then they should be a meld of the two designs. I could see them taking aspects from the sea guard or dwarf rangers
>>96570941Because it looks retarded
Question: Are the 4 Chaos Gods invincible or can they be defeated?
>>96571383They can be neutered.
There's no generic reserves right? I'd like to outflank my cav if possible because otherwise they're a big target.
Is morr still worshiped exclusively by humans?
>>96571383Well, the purple one was imprisoned by some supposedly elven gods, so...
>>96571404The guy disappeared at the end of time. Sigmar is the only god that the Humies worship.

>>96570941I really want to pay a guy to make an stl to make it so the two heads of the gryphon were two anthro gryphon ladies with boobs so it could be a conjoined gryphontaur but like how do I tell a guy I want that without sounding like an insane degenerate
>>96571396not unless your army or the mission has a special way to do it, which they've been a lot more previous in handing out this edition. previous editions you had outflank and null deploy everywhere, this edition its been massively reduced
>>96571495I think you are videly underestimating the type of audience porn artists have to work with, probably wont even be the weirdest request of the day
>>96571584Yeah, that's honestly pretty vanilla
>>96571539Yeah I was worried about that. Guess I'll have to try to play cagier with them.
>>96571495I hate that GW now makes shitty anthro-face sculpts to pander to gay furries like you
>>96571679which army?
>>96571692oh fuck off, that guy is practically ripped straight out of the dragonheart movie from 20 years ago
>>96571495Depending on if you're willing to commission it, I might know a guy?
>>96571495Embrace the degeneracy
do you think AoS' (relatively) even-handed treatment of factions will continue for its lifespan? as a 40k refugee, the overwhelming space marine favoritism was exhausting
>>96572068I don't know, but I do know that it's never gonna be as bad as space marines. Stormcast get forced into edition starters and Underworlds boxes, but otherwise they don't usually get equal attention cakes like marines.
>>96572068yes, actually if anything it has gotten more even handed over time. the focus in 1st and 2nd edition on stormcast was very high, bordering on space marine levels of favoritism in both releases and narrative, but the last edition or two that has been dramatically reduced, and seems to be declining more with every passing release, especially as the new cities of sigmar take more of a prominent role as the main narrative POV lense.
>>96572084They should do stormcast v marines next edition.
>>96572084if anything SCE just gets an equal attention cupcake at the start while the headliner villains get the big cake. Just a lil' cupcake with some sprinkles

I'm losing my mind trying win bids for slightly discounted stuff on ebay and facebook marketplace is worse than useless. I dunno if it's the factions im into or what, but it's so hard to find decent discounts for anything that's not stormcast or skaven.

Still asking for the sigmars toll vid
Does anyone have any of the following that they would be willing to share, please? The Lost Karak (short story) Krenkha Gorogna (short story) The Skyborne Grudge (short story) The Arkanaut's Oath (novel) The Ghosts of Barak-Minoz (novel)I want to read about the KO before I get to work on the old Spearhead box and I am running out of Battletomes to read now. Any and all help and links are appreciated, thanks Anons.
Gonna read this, hopefully its decent. Tzeentch versus boners sounds good on paper.
Alright barely a page in and this prose is dogshit, I should know not to expect anything decent when an authors named a Fletcher.
>Tzeentch, the Raven God,’ said the Champion. ‘The Changer of Ways. The Architect of Fate. Chaos solely for the sake of Chaos. Beautiful seething potential, free of shackles. Lord of Destiny, God of Change. My god. He is always different, ever-shifting, never the same twice. To see him is to lose yourself to the glory of madness. He is the unpredictable dance of flame, the crash of ocean waves. They call him Ruinous.’
I wish the Gitmob Spearhead was good
>>96572948GW will have to get over their obsession with destruction and grots specifically being bad. sooo.....magic 8 ball says signs point to no
>>96567550I just know they'll force the DoK to wear pants and I hate it.I hate it!
>>96573081I wouldn’t complain as long as it’s leather, or wrappings, or leggings.
>>96570683>Kurnothi and Sylvaneth should be in the same bookNo. Fuck off, we're full. CoS can take them.
>>96573125>microfaction >full lol.
>>96573152What do you even mean by microfaction? In terms of the number of units they've got they're middling.
Does anyone know what the next battletomes will be in this 4th edition?
>>96572877Alright so, stories not overall bad upon finishing it. It is however a book about solely glazing the Boners, so on that end, it was kinda cool. The fight overall was cool, and the presentation of the reapers was kind of cool from the “tax” payers perspective. Just…don’t expect any meaningful tzeentch rep here, Outside of the ending I guess.
>>96573187rumors suggest maggotkin and ogres are coming up, but im not sure how far down the pipe those actually are. they might not be till later

>>96572308Miniswap or local I have people dumping off like 1k-2k points of stuff for around 100ish bucks. Depends on the army admitedly, but somehow I've willed many deals into existance.
>>96572068High quality shitpostAs for your question, unless gw captures that lightning in a bottle thing with space marines AGAIN in aos, we're safe. Aos is fairly diverse in faction themes, so it's especially hard for 1 faction to appeal to 75%+ (if counting csm) of the fans like marines do in 40k.>>96572308Stormcast, kruleboyz and to some extent skaven are cheap as fuck online due to gw producing so much of dominion and skaventide, plus people wanting to sell off the other faction from the box. Also a fuck ton of 1e and 2e stormcast models that got squatted or refreshed that you can easily use as proxies. You can probably find entire 3k collections for under a 100 bucks.
>>96565830Many such cases, 1-1 portrayel of models always looks weird in other media. Anyone else remember that weird period where all new GW art was JUST DRAW THE MODELS
>>96573307The cow helmets and cow statues are cool as fuck in any form and I'm not afraid to say it

>>96573486>only azyrheim enduredWait, was only azyrheim safe or the whole realm of azyr? The text is kind of ambiguous about it.
I'm thinking of starting AoS with OBRGetting both spearhead boxes looks like a good starting point, right?Seems like a good discount price wise and points wise, it's like one Katakros away from 2k.
>>96573486
>>96573609its alright but keep in mind the morghasts are a bit of a bitch to assemble and you might need to learn how to pin stuff.

>>96568552Can you hook me up with what colours you used for the skin?
>>96573702Absolutely don't listen to this idiot >>96573619You don't need to pin morghast and they aren't that hard to put together. Just follow the instructions on the box.> Two spearheadsI would get one of the new one and one of the old ones. Hell maybe even two of each and then buy Katakros.New of the new box is kinda meh because, while four morghast is nice, you aren't going to need more than a reinforced unit of Immortis and stalkers are currently (unfortunately) not good (I have tried and tried to make them work but the damage simply isn't there). Also, you will never need more than one ossifector. On the other hand, multiple soul reapers (the scythe guy hero in the old box) is actually REALLY good right now (they have a bubble of minus one to wound that is great, and chain fight with infantry while giving them a +1 to hit). Mortek generally need to be in 20s to survive, and kavalos death riders are useful (if still constantly over pointed).
So new Ogors are going to be twice as tall as the current range just to distinguish it from TOW?
>>96573921We just don't know.
>>96573951Yeah the thing about getting an entire years worth of leaks/spoilers in a few weeks, is that we still kinda don't know shit without seeing the models. No leaker ever really describes new models in a way that correctly aligns people's perspective to reality.
