Shitty Fucking Haircut Edition>Previously in the Mortal Realms:>>96618707>Official AoS website:https://www.ageofsigmar.com>Downloads, Rules Errata and FAQs:https://www.warhammer-community.com/warhammer-age-of-sigmar-downloads/>Toolshttps://runebrush.pa-sy.com/warscroll/>Anvil of Apotheosis hero creator:https://aosg.github.io/>Thread question:Who is/was your favorite opponent to play against? Can you recall a time your opponent was particularly fun, polite, etc?
>>96630921I haven't played that many games, most fun I've had was completely killing a guy in like 1 turn with my FEC list that was just Ush, some terrorgheists and a gargant. (Admittedly I probably misinterpreted some of the gargants damage rules but still) and he was running a 90% blood knights list because he really liked vampire horses.So far my least favorite rival I've had is some lady playing DoK who has an all snake list with Morathi that stomps my dick in like the 4ish times I've played against it. Most factions I play have dickall consistent ranged options and I'm still learning to properly screen so Morathi is a nightmare to deal with.
>>96630921Why are chuds obsessed with this hair style?
>>96631180Idk it's something about a global conspiracy to make them want to put a penis in their mouth, shit's weird.
>my screenshot as OP imageneat
>>96631180Because it's part of a global conspiracy to make women masculine or something who the fuck knows. Personally I just think it's overused and looks like shit every time gw tries it.>>96631214Where's it from, RoR? How is that game anyway, I've heard many people talk about it and why it failed but haven't heard a whole lot from people who actually played it.
>>96631239>overused and looks like shit every time gw tries it.I think that happens a lot with this type of trendy stuff, it's why black people genuinely started getting sick of seeing every fucking black character having the killmonger haircut from Black Panther.
>>96631180Doesn’t look good and is seemingly used any chance designers in whatever medium get
>>96631214It's always gonna be a shame how bad the actual gameplay team botched the work of everyone else. RoR had everything to become AoS's Dawn of War and they insisted on this weird, clunky, slow Rock-Paper-Scissors ass gameplay.
>>96631180It's overdone
>>96631195they need to bring back the kraken>>96631214is that from realms of ruin? That game any good?
Lighting is fucky and makes him look paler but my Himalayan salt Glotkin is comin' along. Gonna have to retouch up his zits but honestly I think he's gonna look real purty.
>>96631280>Dreadfleet Nah, they're never bring that back again. Especially because that game was the origin of vampire pirates
is this better or worse, /aosg/?
>>96631325That's fuckin' cursed, now she just looks like she's gonna hold up the register looking through a coupon book.
>>96631314they at least talked about Dreadfleet in the Helsmith design videos
>>96630921>last thread not even on page 8We talked about this last time piccolo>>96631314I would love to see gw try shit like dreadfleet and man o war again. Granted I would probably be one of the only people to buy it, but still.
>>96631334i thought she looked like a MegaKaren when i made it, too. that might explain why undercuts are ass, it's half of a Karencut
>>96631314>Especially because that game was the origin of vampire piratesNo, it wasn't, vampire pirates predate dreadfleet by a fucking lot.
I have finalised my Erebor-Not-Erebor scheme for the Helsmiths based on the old GW Erebor scheme from MESBG. Since the Hobbit is my favourite novel ever and I love the new Chorfs I thought I'd combine them.Silver armourBlue clothWhite/red cloaksBrown, black and ginger beards (as I think grey would blend in with the silver plate)Red gemsBlack weapon handles/shafts Gunmetal blades (darkened with wash etc so they don't blend in with armour)Leather colours for holsters and scabbards I hope this looks good lmao
>>96631436The test model will be fun at least
>>96631436Please post when you're done. Would love to see it.
>>96631180>it looks stupid as fuck>it's fucking everywhere>on a fictional character, it's visual shorthand for "this is strong female protagonist, and you'll know how strong she is because we'll never stop telling you how strong she is. We'll tell you so passionately, and with such regularity, that we won't even have to show you. Which we won't.">on an actual person that haircut and a pierced septum collectively form the unofficial uniform of insufferable cunts who make their trauma their entire personalityI think that about covers it. On a personal note, I want the Yndrasta from the AoS3 Core Rulebook cover art; that bitch looks like she's about to dive into the realm of chaos for an "I'm not trapped in here with you..." moment. The one from OP's image, and the one we got in model form looks less like the god king's #1 closer, and more like the type of chick that marries the safe option in her mid-30s then gaslights him into opening the relationship six months after the honeymoon.>>96631195>best color scheme>best loreZharr Vyxa can't stop winning.>>96631325This bitch out here tryna talk to Belakor's manager.
>>96631239>>96631262>>96631280RoR is a solid game, but i was confused on why they didnt go for a classic RTS style. The idea of not being able to retreating from combat without falling back to your base is great though. Id prefered if units had actual visible stats instead of being vague. The non existant marketing didnt help though.
>>96631436>GW still makes MESBGWhere the fuck is this even played, and who the fuck is playing it? I mean I'm glad it's not dead, I just don't understand how.
>>96631471>The idea of not being able to retreating from combat without falling back to your base is great thoughI'm 99% sure DoW2 was like that, but I could be wrong, as I didn't play DoW2 after my first weekend with it.
>>96631325Ngl I actually like it
>>96631479>I just don't understand how.GW keeps it on life support to keep the license. Even if it's not a moneymaker, if they lose the license and another company gets hold of it, that could chip away at the profits from the Warhammer games.
>>96631479>and who the fuck is playing itIt's actually the most fun GW fantasy game honestly. I love it, though I play AoS far more than MESBG these days.
>>96631516Ah, the Sony Spiderman and Fantastic Four tacticI fucking hate it.
>>96631443>The test model will be fun at leastI hope so lmfao>Please post when you're done. Would love to see it.Will do :)
>>96631479I quite like it since it lets you play weird match-ups. Like Easterlings vs Lothlorien
>>96631325Let me show you what the local fucksmiths have to say about it
>>96630921>TQ Has anyone ever had experience with people in AoS scene who aren't polite ? AoS isn't nearly as big as 40K to house a spectrum of weirdos
>>96631570Okay now turn her into drowned Ophelia from brutal legend.
>>96631596I've never had anyone impolite but my first test game against a guy he brought a fucking full tourney list and rolled me without much implication of actually teaching me.He was pleasant enough outside of that though, just kind of a dick move.
>>96631596I've had a couple but even then they're not as bad as the average negative 40k experience. In my case it was just like being really insistent about how effective his units would be in the "talking it out" phase of the game, or switching between playing by intent and being exact on the measurements to his convenience, or having some BO funk.
>turns 10 this weekHappy birthday little man>>96631596It's still warhammer, you still get people with zero social skills occasionally. 99% of the time even when there is a problem it's not even done out of malice or anything either. Just the other day I had to discreetly pull a dude aside and tell him to go easy on a 15yo during an intro game, instead of going full powergamer. Some people are just remarkably bad at reading the room so the speak. Outright hostility I've never really seen though.
>>96631640Speen
>>96631461Yeah, Yndrastas battletome fluff is very it's ironic she's an angelic symbol of hope inspiring the troops considering she's a monster losing herself to becoming nothing more than a weapon but the miniature downplays that and black library retcons it in the opposite direction (though black library is obviously not canon)
Aliexpress airbrush anon here, made an attempt on doing the ethereal effect with just the airbrush, gonna paint the face, arms and metal bits by brush next
what's the best female head in aos?
>>96631710Probably the unhelmeted Scinari Enlightener.
>>96631325Dr. Chakwas?
>>96631763boss baby?
>>96631725he asked for best, not worst
>>96631769Anon? Unhelmeted.
>>96631710Some of the idoneth ones are pretty good looking if that's what you mean.Personally I always liked picrel.
>>96631795The children will not understand.
>>96631195Post Muspelzharr.
I FUCKING HATE PORTUGUESE LANGUAGE. EVERY TIME I WANT TO LOOK UP "AOS" ON X IT'S JUST SOME FUCKING BRAZILIANS USING IT AS AN UNRELATED WORD
Now on to these guys, the painting never ends with Skaven
>>96631195Shyish can't catch a break, I wonder when Nagash is gonna go nuclear again
>>96631180Because chuds are angry miserable assholes. I think it's ugly, but I don't care about it beyond that.
>>96631815>XLay with dogs, get fleas
>>96631687So cool
>>96630921Any risk to Kruleboyz Hobgrots from the new Chaos Dwarf stuff? I like them and would like to keep them
>>96631846I'm generally very impressed with the skaven refresh but the rat ogres do nothing for me, I much prefer the island of blood set (although those were very samey I know), do I can't really articulate what I don't like about them.
>>96631564>Metal Easterling CaptainKINOOOOO
Anyone happen to have the fec battletome?
>>96632091No
>>96631516That actually makes a lot of sense.>>96631536In this case, I don't mind it, since the dripfeed they give us actually consists of good models and a solid set of rules.>>96631596AoS has become my main game for a reason. In the AoS scene the worst I've dealt with is the occasional 'tism and/or hygiene issue, whereas with 40K it feels like the entire hobby is populated by morbidly obese, balding YOU DIE IN THE GAME, YOU DIE FOR REAL types.>>96631685Pretty much. I'm not bothered that the face of SCE is a woman; I've played more hours of Metroid than anyone ITT. What bothers me is she's a poorly written and portrayed woman; I don't want a Mary Sue who tells Sigmar to fuck off and faces no repercussions, I want a tortured veteran of ages of conflict, whose inner soundtrack consists of DOOM music and the tortured screams of forgotten friends, who doesn't know where the weapon ends and the woman begins anymore.>>96631787Are those DSLs native to the sculpt or a testament to good painting?
>>96632091Absolutely not. The hobgrotz on the margins of KB society buy their equipment from the hobgrotz on the margins of Zharrdron society. This has been part of their lore from the beginning.
>>96632184So how come the Kruleboy ones look like they have better armour, and even hand grenadesDoesn't make sense to me
>>96632200Because they're the lucky hobgrots in a position to make deals with the Chorfs rather than needing to suck up to them.
>>96631640They grow up so fast
>>96632200Slittaz are traders and looters that don't necessarily have to be Kruleboyz lackeys whereas Vandalz are slaves that serve directly under HoH
>>96632159Just like irl, you can overline any set of lips to make them appear larger
>>96632097I get what you mean, it’s the heads, when you look at the aisle of blood Rat Ogres you think, “big rat”When you see the new sculpts you think, “big monster”.I definitely prefer the new poses though.
>>96632130check the archive
>>96632252gooner or just gay?
>>96632097It would be cool if TOW got Skaven too so we could get more of the Isle Of Blood minis.Also, I like them a lot more now that I have them in hand
>>96630921Another dude who played Skaven as they should be, cowardly and sneaky.We spent the whole game laughing
>>96631815Shouldn't you be using the hashtag or AoS? What are you even looking for in random twitter posts?
>>96632097They were a somewhat unambitious remake. They could have tried to retain some of the weirdness from the previous models, like the double-arm and the face covered in scales and boils, while adding new stuff like mutated limbs and different mechanical bits.Also they should have had a skull face option like the old boneripper
>>96632252girls are the great satan, but the dot technique is really good for the lips on character faces. (like in mid left pic)
>>96632323What should I check for?
Kruleboyz unit ideas>Ladz on Gnashtoof WhelpsMorks on young gnashtooths that can be either sabre swingas (can do melee drive bys) or bolts boys (can do ranged drive bys)>Muck ChuckaHeavy Arty that can drop bloated corpses, turd piles, or rotten food in a spot to cause mortals to anyone nearby>Brambleshaman (and flowerpotgrot)Attuned to Life, he uses his magic to cause death, mostly by thousands of infected cuts and scrapes from the plants he controls>HarpoonasAn ork saw the crossbow and thought "wot if we reeled em in like a fish?" and thus became the richest greenskin for miles around. It can pull enemies towards them, either a guaranteed tug for a few inches or a risky reel that could snap their rope and cause whiplash but drag the target into stabbing range
>>96632333>Implying GW is gonna let an army be in more than 1 game at a time
>>96631815>"X"It's twitter. And it's shit to search on there. Always has been.
When is Warhammer Day? When are we will see more models? I want Nurgle now
>>96632421The fec battletome
I know Chorfs got a robust army but like Lumineth, there is just so many cool ideas floating around from tome, old Chorf lore as well as fan sources for new heroes, units, monsters, daemon engines and warmachines.If we get a second wave, when do you think it could come? End of this edition? Next? Just pity hero in next and wait until 6th edition?
>>96632699Earliest I see Chorfs getting a second wave could be the narrative campaign to finish off 5th, but I wouldn't be surprised if they've got sculpts waiting in the wings for their proper 5e update.
>>96632643I think they announced it for late october this year?
>>96632699Shar'tor is getting a model eventually since GW apparently considers him an AoS character.
>>96632730I thought it is October 4 or 5
>>96632731He's going to be replaced by his Sister, Far'tor
>>96631687How did you do this? Good shit.
>>96632677what should I put in the search?
Went with a black rose on the blade. I need to accentuate the black and highlight it a bit more though. Kinda gets lost in the red accents and reads purple. Also giving her a Bride of Frankenstein stripe.How are the leather gloves? I tried detailing the leather wear instead of just doing straight highlights.
>>96632855fec battletome, flesh eater courts battletome, you are overthinking this
>>96632929Put a little blood on her mouth like she just had a fat swig before dumping the rest of her chalice on the floor
>>96632933I know Im just messing with you a bit.
>>96632929Question: when cloaks have these wear holes in them, but they don't go all the way through, what exactly is it supposed to be? Is it meant to be like it's a multi-layered cloth or that it's worn but not all the way through? It's a bit confusing.
Notably they do not have an ability for shrugging off attacks.
>>96632933>>96632990That being said, the fec link doesnt have any datasheets or detachments? Are they somewhere else
