>>96657718>tqIn magic Christmas land? Spiderfang. In reality? I dunno, maybe more skellies or another tzeentch one
>>96657718>poisoned tips of Hobgrot's blades More fuel for the Hobgrot schizo fire
>>96657777HOBGROT QUADS
>>96657718>What faction would you like to see next in underworlds?Sylvaneth. For some reason there haven't been a warband of them since the game was still set in Shadespire.
>>96657777Dint Hobgrots have crit mortals and synergies now?
Does this dude pass more as a Khorne Bloodletter, Reaver, or Warrior? For proxy purposes.>TQSilent Ones. So what happened to Shadespire?
>>96657807>For some reason there haven't been a warband of them since the game was still set in Shadespire.good news, they have a new warband coming this weekend :)
>>96657851Those aren't Sylvaneth.
>>96657847No.
>>96657864that's odd, the Kurnothi keyword is used exclusively in Sylvaneth warscrolls... i must be confused
>>96657864They have lamenteri
I dont think we will see new models this week :(
>>96657847I mean. You could argue he passes as something in blades of khorne. Probably not a demon though. It’s not too high tech for Aos, or even fantasy battle really.
>>96657864
how to play this fucking game?I lose every game and I play one of the most braidead factions. I know rules well, I just can't make good use of my factions strenghts.
>>96657777Very obviously different from the KB hobs, so it's not the same substance on them
>>96657931Isn't StD a "sit on objectives and hope they dont kill you fast" faction? Try that
>This Sylvaneth whiney bullshit AGAIN
>>96657847chop down cables, axe teeth and pockets and it will pass.
>>96657931whats your army list?
>>96657864Despite what other anons say i agree with you, kill all elves, plants banzai
In my opinion only like two subfactions have arguments towards being their own thing, deathrattle and gitmob. Kuronothi are LITERALLY woodland creature hybrid elfs
>>96657989it doesn't matter I suck with every army list, from meta to my own
>>96658081Post it faggot
I just got myself the Helsmiths of Hashut box to get started with AoS, how bad did I fuck up?
>>96658074>deathrattleDelusional.
>>96657718>TQCoS gang of village rabble with makeshift weapons and led by a self proclaimed witch hunter
>>96657777I will never paint it as blood it's always going to be poison to me
>>96658081it matters tremendously
>>96658096what do you mean? the Helsmiths release has been pretty positive and it's already a more well-rounded roster than many older factions
>>96658108Oh good, I did almost no research and know little about AoS, I just like chaos dwarfs
>>96658096Did you buy it at or below msrp?Not fuckedDid you buy it for 150% msrp?Fucked
>>96658096HoH are a good army so far, so dont worry. You did it good.
>>96658114At MSRP, so not too fucked then>>96658116Hell yeah
So what’s next for DOK? Malerion’s girls? More snakes? Squatting?
chafes my ass that scanners and leakers leave out the path to glory stuff. i have my battletome but what about my impoverished pals who want to make anvil heroes
>>96658153More krethusa goons
CAW CAW
>>96658153Fully drop evil snake lady for morally ambiguous son of snake lady.
Is there any real use for the humble Vampire Lord? The recent scroll made my list 50 points cheaper and I am thinking about changing a Vargheist unit for the Vampire Lord since I'm running an all vampire army.
>>96657959If you rather want it, we can rev up the goblin discourse
>>96658153Crow ladies
>>96658324I wasn't the biggest fan, they seem fine?
>>96658153I'm guessing pity hero.
What could a Hedonites priest look like?
>>96658153I feel like so many people are just constantly thinking everything's gonna get squatted
>>96658394magnum dong
>>96658399Anything that existed in WHF is near guaranteed to go to TOW so squatting is just an inevitability
>>96658406Not really, bunch of factions were stated to just outright not be in TOW. Also enough factions have been relevant and getting new stuff semi-consistently. If you're gonna say "BUT BEASTS OF CHAOS" they got endless spells and an underworlds team with nothing else. (Was herdstone AOS? not sure, but regardless.) and then dickall else.
>>96658406With how poorly ToW does that's a very stupid financial decision
>>96658394Harismatic cult leader?Mangled mess forcing you to drink his blood and eat his flesh?A prostitute?
>>96658394This dude but blinged out.
>>96658226Just hit the pavement anon. Get a job
>>96657931Play the objectives.Have screens.Have something fast that can kill a lot on the charge.
>>96658406They're gonna squat Nagash...
>>96658399Can you blame them? Do you know how much shit Skaven and STD lost from 3rd to 4th? There's basically no guaranteed security in buying anything that isn't an AoS-specific core unit. For example, I'd love to try out the Jade Obelisk for DoT, but I'm not buying them because I have no confidence that Warcry-originating units will stick around for future editions.
Do you guys think Nagash added a penis to his body? Like just a giant sewed together pendulous cock hidden beneath his little robe flap? If so do you think Nagash could impregnate someone to give birth to skeletons?
>>96658513hes a spiritual rapist now. He cant get off from physical sex.
>>96658437They badly need to refresh stuff like the TK skeletons that are both required to play the army and prohibitively hideous and difficult to work with. When the game has so few supported factions, they can't be treating all of them like neglected AoS armies and giving them the occasional plastic (or resin, cripes) hero.
>>96658511I'm gonna be real the stuff that was removed was already added back except the weird niche old shit that I don't even think you could buy anymore. I think the only stuff still gone as of now is Gutter runners, rat swarms, and censer bearers? Also didn't STD just lose all the random warcry warbands? (Oh shit and Warshrine, remember that fucking thing?) Not saying losing models doesn't suck but most of the core stuff will most likely return.I got no justification I hate shit getting removed too, I lost all my dudes from cursed city and it stunk but I still got the models, they still look cool, and base size proxying works just as well if need be. Doesn't make it any better but I generally go for model first, game second.
Question: Nagash has a catchphrase? I dont know, i have this feeling Nagash and/or his servants say someting like "so say Nagash", "Thats Nagash's will" or something. Someone can help me? or im delusional? I saw some memes and reaction images with the phrase but i cant find them.
>>96658561"I've got a bone to pick with you Sigmar"
>>96658561Closest I can think of is "Such is the power of Nagash"
>>96658557Regular packmasters are gone from skaven as well, which is kind of like if they squatted the lesser Clan Skryre warlocks and only left the Arch-Warlock.
>>96658577THATS IT ANON!! I love you. Thank you thank you.
>>96658522I mean, nothing says he can't do both. Are you saying Nagash wouldn't make some sort of nighthaunt that is just caught in a perpetual "O" face who were like... I dunno prostitutes in life so in death he turned them into floating spooky fleshlights. Or like, weird sexual deviants get turned into nighthaunts whose robes get all crumpled up and kinda crispy.
>>96658557>>96658586Oh and giant rats and rat swarms whoopsBasically you can only play Moulder as "rat ogres, rat ogres with guns, and bigger rat ogres" which is kind of fucking stupid for the clan that's all about experimenting and making wacky creatures
>>96658577Same energy
>>96658595You ain't wrong, Pestilens, Moulder, and Eshen got the shaft with the releases (Moulder at least got some new stuff, Pestilens got an underworlds Warband and Eshen didn't even get that) I still think GW will give them things again, it's just unfortunately gonna be awhile since Skaven got the bigass refresh and release wave and thus must go into stasis. (Unless say they put out new plague monks as jobbers in the WHQ nurgle box)
>>96658617Hell yeah I would love to see Plague Monks as an oddball enemy unit in Mosscairn(?)captcha: RATT2
GUYS I JUST GOT AN INTERNAL LETTER FROM GW, SPEARHEADS ARE GETTING UPDATED AND THEY WANT THE GENERAL PUBLICS OPINION: WHAT WOULD YOU GUYS WANT IN YOUR IDEAL SPEARHEAD?
>>96657955no they want to establish board control as fast as possible>>96657931hard to say without more info but lean into reinforced hammers and literally just focus on killing. The game doesn't have that much depth, many of the battle tactics just want you to table the opponentchaos warriors aren't bad but chaos knights are much more useful even in MSU than the 200 you'd spend on 10 warriors. If you want to run infantry, consider a 10 block of chosen.>>96657718death is the odd man out on warband count right now, usually they are neck and neck with destruction for warband counts.Ossiarchs could use an elite 3- or 4-man band, they only have one so far. Have a million different ideas about concepts but at the end of the day I want it to have innovative mechanics and not 3 OPG ability slop like most bands get.
City Aelves
>>96658633>Combat Patrol Demons of Chaos
>>96658633Multi kits and dual kit hero’s. ….Tzeentch literally has none of those however so I probably won’t be happy with it either way. >>96658639I’m generally opposed to non humans adopting human aesthetics but I guess this is fine.
this is a lamassu, right?
>>96658686Oh shit?
>>96658686It looks like a beard with a face
>>96658428They also got a new Beastlord. Who was awesome looking btw.
>>96658513I wish I could revoke your internet access
>>96658686Pretty sure that's a sculpture in a rock
I love hairy kurnothi pussy
>>96658394A slaangor with a very long prehensile tongue.
4th ed is easily the worst edition of AOS, everyone agrees on thatWhat is the best edition? and which edition is your favorite?
>>96658633The gitz one is about all I could ask for
>>96657718>TQSoulblight. Don't know what I'd actually want since most of the things I'm all about have already been done, but I'm a greedy asshole so I'll take more. Maybe like a vampire lord and his elite command squad or something.
>>96658577Is Nagash the Warhammer equivalent of Dr. Doom? They both consider themselves to be the toppest shit in all reality.
>>96657718>TQI actually kinda wish underworlds got BL tie in novels weird ask and probably impossible ask, I know. Even If I think underworlds had anthologies before.
>>96658834Unfortunately second is the best by being the least shit one left standing.1 is dragged down by the lack of rules. 3rd introduced battle tactics and the shitter battalion system which was just 'one drop or bust.' 4th is boring, flavorless mush. 2nd wins by default, even with it's periods of 'newly released army is absolutely bullshit'
>>96658864...Yes actually
>>96658834Jervis said he regrets 3rd edition so obviously it peaked at 2nd but imo I prefer the relaxed no points battalions of 1st edition, the lowered lethality, and emphasis on the general as the only source of command abilities. Battle traits can feel a little bloated to me so I enjoy playing 1st edition without them which wasn't uncommon given it's a design that came in later battletomes and ghbs so not everyone had them initially
>>96658834Early 2nd > 1 = 3 > Late 2nd > 4
>>96658686Bit hard to tell since it's a statue, but yeah might be a llamasu. What I'm wondering is what kind of insect creature is beneath it. Also cool of piece of art, this sketchy style does it for me.>>96658834I remember enjoying second the most just purely out of hype. Actual gameplay wise it was pretty good too but yeah had some definite balance issues. Fucking lumineth holt shit.
>>96658897Yeah, whenever people praise 2nd edition I can't help but think is this before or after they made malign sorcery artefacts illegal, before or after realm artefacts went from 3/3 to 1 per realm, etc I also hated Mawtribes soup. Stripped the flavour and braggoths beasthammer battalion, among others like the mega battalions. Gutbusters were always allies so I never thought 400pts was a handicap and vice versa
>>96658513Bro 100% cucks that ghost married to Lady Oylander
>>96658932Kurdss and Olynder hate eachoter, so i doubt he gives a shit.That's why Kurdoss's hobby is violence towards women s depicted in that Nighthaunt vs DoK battle box that introduced Craven King's personal guard
Finished pigs. I hate this model and never want to touch them again. Way too many details with trinkets n shit hanging off em and they aren’t crisp details either
>>96658992I wonder why iron jawz like pigz so much. I also gotta wonder how the range will expand.
>>96659021orcs have been riding boars as their main cavalry going way back to the 90s, maybe even the 80s for warhammer
Has anyone done this type of basing before? Does it come off as an overkill when placed ingame ?
>>96659145I saw far more extream basing, sometimes taller than the model, but idk if they were ever played with or jsut dispalyed.This is fine imo
>>96658932He'd probably be doing kurdoss a favour honestly
>>96657847reaver
>>96658973Knowing they're squatting dark riders after including them in so many boxes is devious
>>96658513Photographic proof says yes
I kinda want to paint my SCE akin to boy scouts. A khaki gold with olive green and dark red accents. Does anyone have that comparison image with the gold paints and different washes so I can figure out how to even do "khaki gold"?
>>96659145I think it's fine, any basing is fine desu especially if it helps me differentiate a hero and a jobber.
>>96658153doomfire warcucks on footwinged pity heroinemorathi/malerion scenery
>>96659145>>96659307Thank you. I got inspired base my army in a similar way. Will make a few bases first and then decided from there. Obviously, I'll try to keep heroes on the higher level
Gw gives (you) 5 kits to fix darkoath. How do you do it?
>>96659412The fuck do you mean 5 kits, they're a chaff unit option in STD and do what they're supposed to do
so underworld basically confirms centaurs are the next army?
>>96659412I don’t think they need more models to fix the faction. But what the hell, sure. Make them more priests, a standalone hero and a command priest squad, a warshrine dedicated for darkoath, and uh….prayer endless spells.
>>96659445No. Mark Rosewater has said publically that the next army is Malcontents of Malal
>>96659412Bowmen Chaos spawn, more obviously human mutants than the wilderfiend>Untamed Beasts 2.0Chieftain Beast tamer with 3-5 beasts Warriors, more elite 5 man group

>>96659479>Totallynotamammoth centrepieceFuck off that's BCR copyright
>>96657718>TQSylvaneth, with an alternate sculpt for the Branchwych
>>96659021Personally I want cannon wielding ironjawz; I’ve already shared my desire to kitbash some and even made homebrew rules to try (and opr will let play them as arrow boys)Unfortunately, neither opr or GW will let me play a rogue idol as a rogue idol. Which I need
>>96657718>TQTzeentch, because aside from the spellcaster, the rest of the models in that set look awful.
>>96658577SUCH IS A SAMURAI'S SKILL
>>96659636
>>96658633It's hard to beat the current Sylvaneth box. But if I must,2x units of Spiterider Lancers/Revenant Seekers1x unit of Gossamid Archers1x Arch-RevenantAlarielle's Flying Circus.
>>96658633Deepkin actually can't do anything else unless they do like 3 sharks and a foot hero or a turtle and a hero.
>>96658633Gaunt SummonerPink, blue, and brimstone horrorsscreamerstzangor skyfires
>>96659464Would've been perfect for warcry actually, fuck man.>>96659494I dig it, kind of like that one 40k box that has a bunch of really mutated dudes. Why isn't that one fual purpose for aos anyway?>>96659678Yeah idk has practically everything they could put in a spearhead already in a spearhead. Maybe if they'd get funky with underworlds stuff they could do something but even then they'd have to double up with an existing one. The new akhelian king spearhead is amazing value at least, plus everything in it is (or at least can be) useful.
They need to add halflings already
So, is it safe to assume spearhead is more or less dead?The ruleswriter got kicked out and the second pack done after he was gone.
>>96659825>DeadAbsolutely not.>Kicked outWrong again. He left on his own and moved to Korea with his wife. Now he's pulling the classic maneuver of using GW experience to make a hobby channel.
>>96659825I know gw is retarded sometimes but even they seem to realize spearhead is a good idea. They're introducing a version of it to tow if I'm understanding todays arcane journal on warcom correctly.
Just finished the first half of my infernal cohort, and with the shields on now, my first 100% finished models.First time trying out molten bases, too. That turned out really fun (despite the overly red center base that I messed up on)
>>96659970Looking awesome, anon. Can't wait to see more anons and their growing legions.
>>96659250Are they really? Doomfire warlocks are the cav for DOK
>>96660018Nah, if anything I expect Warlocks will get updated models, given that Krethusa leans on them pretty hard.
>>96658428The ToW team wrote articles specifically teasing Lizardmen as a faction that will be returning. Specifically mentioning The Great Plan. They probably are going to wait until 2nd edition next year but ToW is almost certainly getting back Lizards and Dark Elves in the next year or two.
>>96660343I'll believe it when I see it.
>>96660343This is some top tier cope that can’t be seen in even the most damaged individuals.
>>96660385Lizards being seen as a cope I can understand as that's based teasing from GW, but Dark Elves are 100% going back to ToW and it's only a matter of time.
>>96655790Do it, don't be a coward >>96655897Fake news. You need to be high T to worship Morathi>>96657718Gitz. I know they already have a bunch of Warbands but each one has been 11/10 so want more
>>96660491your greed sickens me
>>96659435Are people so far gone they can't even draw a pepe anymore.
Why do BoK run around with so many shackles? Aren't they more about slaughter than slavery?
>>96660564Chains are cool faggot
>>96660493They've consistently been gold. Would rather more gold Warbands than boring ones.I'm a DoK lover too but besides Motgwaeth, the others have been meh
>>96660551pepes and wojacks are uncreative dogshit, ai art is what they deserve
>>96657851Their rules look bad. A 3 man warband where 2 have 1 dodge defense max. Their inspire condition is just the generic protectors one, they even have can't be flanked, except they can be surrounded making it even worse.
>>96658153More men, the women now wear pants, and no more cleavage.
>>96660698On one hand maybe I’d be able to play them without my family judging meOn the other one must admit they lose a bit of the appeal
>>96660747My family already judges me for wasting my time and money on "shit" like miniatures and videogames that don't make money so it kinda doesn't matter that I collect anime figures at this point.
I could use some advice on choosing which army to go all-in on as my main. I know the "just pick whatever you think looks cool" cliche, but I also actually wanna fucking play this game, so liking a faction's playstyle is also extremely important to me. That being said, I'm hung up on these factions, in no particular order:Gitz: Like — most fun model range in the game imo, love their wacky, almost Looney Tune vibe, and probably a joy to collect; Dislike — absolutely fucking despise the fucking moon mechanics, non-synergy makes list-building a headache, and hordes be expensive.Kruleboyz: Dislike — models are okay but not orky at all, though the monsters are kinda cool. Like — I love, love, LOVE sneaky Dirty Tricks shenanigans (probably my favorite playstyle of the bunch), and it's famously cheap to collect, which is great.OBR: Like — skeleton supersoldiers and bone tithe are peak badass aesthetic for me, Katakros is an 11/10 model, and I love how easy it looks to paint; Dislike — the playstyle is so mindnumbingly boring I feel like I'd actually fall asleep mid-game.Stormcast: Like — stupidly cheap to get into; easy to paint; very, very cool lore; elite army of actual good guys with tanky armor. Dislike — actually not cheap at all when you have to buy more & more of the range?; newer models while cool, seem more challenging to paint?; playstyle/rules feel decisively mid af; actual aesthetic is just generic knights, sometimes on fantasy creatures... not very unique or interesting.Ogors: Like — in a world where everyone is fighting and scheming to save/take over/destroy the world, it's so nice to see some lads that just wanna eat good food and have a good time; love big, chunky, dad-bod fighters, and monster truck monsters; playstyle is as brain-dead simple as you can get, in a fun way. Dislike — 99% of models are very outdated & definitely getting a refresh, makes me extremely hesitant to get into ogors now; playstyle is brain-dead simple.
>>96660752Thankfully my dads been running a model train blog since the internet was new so I come from a long line of autists.
>>96661007At least 3 of these are available on Hachette paperworks website stormbringer shit cheap as fuck (Gitz, KB, and Stormcast) having played at least OBR I can confirm they're very dry and in need of any kind of rework because they're literally just "do more numbers" the faction. If you're interested in Death I'd reccomend FEC, they have a better version of Gitz moon and some wicked sick models and fun lore.Gitz the only thing I have in excess is the worst unit available for them (3 mangler squigs) KB a heavy shooting list sounds funny and the vulture is kewl. And lastly I have no clue about ogors but they're getting a big update soon so I'd wait and see how that pans out. Regardless hope this helps!
I'm sick of pushfit gutrippaz I WANT GLUE BUILD RIPPAZ AAAAAA
>>96661064Clarification: I'm sick of buying the cheap rippas I know there's already a proper kit but it's not cheap dollars and buy them cents on ebay, capiche?
>>96658992>Way too many details with trinkets n shit hanging off emI will never understand this rhetoric. More details is just more fun stuff to paint imo. If you think they have too many trinkets now you're going to find almost every other kit worse, gore gruntas are pretty barebones
>>96661164oink oink
>>96661007I have used Gitz, depending on how competitive you want to be, you can actually go pretty cheap.Buy 2* Spearheads, then get 3D printed troll necks and legs.That's 720 points of trolls alone.Personally I would recommend adding the Gobbapalooza as they're 11/10 models, convert the Loonboss and you're at 2,000 points pretty much
