Why?
>TQWood elves because they still haven’t gotten one>but they got a No the fuck they didn’t, they got a shitty one for some shitty fucking narrative army composition (against beastmen of all the fucking boring things) and the same copy pasted oops all cav shit. Oh and the item selection is fucking POOR.Doesn’t help that the army was in a questionable state even before the position changes
>>96763368GW never treated Wood Elves right. Now that there isn't even any of the same people there working there anymore. You think Nu-GW can get it right? This is a monkey's paw situtation. You'll regret asking for this.
It’s taking all of my will power to not go to the store and buy a box of Dwarf Warriors.
>>96763727You could just grab a battalion. That includes warriors and you can cope that you're getting a deal because you're only paying for 2 of the 3 kits.
>>96763727This but for cathay
>>96763879If I encounter one in the wild I just might, usually I don’t like ordering online if I can avoid it.
is the empire battalion actually worthwhile
>>96764508Yes it's one of the better ones
What do you guys think of FANTASY WORLD: FORGEBORN CLAN?I'm looking for some dwarfs but I can't decide
Can anyone tell me what the use of the mounted version of this is? Tomb kings have no cavalry that isn’t paper thin so I have no idea why you’d stick a hero with them
>>96764576I bought it for the herald. The royal on horseback will be a perpetual bench-warmer.
>>96764576>>96764579Skeleton horses are supposed to have been reworked in the new book to actually make them usable.
>>96764508not really
>>96764586If you mean the book coming out with this, they’re not the tomb kings just gets a barded option
>>96764606I am pretty sure there are actual rules for them from what I was reading
>>96764576That cracked hemisphere on the standard bearer would look so much better as a gem, why would solid metal fucking crack like that?
In Fantasy sixth edition, can an Imperial Captain be mounted on a horse? The army book just says he can be equipped with a cavalry lance, and the rulebook states that cavalry lances are for mounted characters/ infantry only. Does that mean you can put him on a horse for no extra points or...?
>>96764834I think you have enough context clues there anon to make the decision yourself that he can but to pay points for it. You didn’t need to come to a basket weaving forum for this
I'm looking at the High Elves battalion pictures and those spearmen and archer models look horrible. Other units in the range look good, at least on the pictures.Do they look better in person?If not, I think I'll get a box of Sea Guard, box of Silver Helms and some lord for the similar price instead.
>>96764867>Do they look better in person?not really, they're 2 of the 3 old kits of that range (silver helms too)you could mask the big hands with gloves
>>96764893archers are slightly better on the hands department
>>96764900Why do they not have any strings
>>96764893>silver helms tooah shit, I didn't notice that before. I'll go for Ellyrian Reavers then, those look better.They should really update those ancient models and not just for HE's, it's basically free money from totalwar newfagst. totalwar newfag
>>96764926if you try to model strings at that scale they come up either too frail for hobbying or too thicksome people try to model strings themselves, but general suspension of disbelief works fine if you don't bother
>>96764867There’s a guy on Etsy called ElfHead3D who’s upgraded the basic spearmen and archers. He does sell physical versions of them for a decent price (image not mine I posted mine above)
>>96764979*posted mine in the previous threadFuck it I’ll attach them here
>>96764834According to lexicanum, an Empire Captain can indeed mount a horse, as well as a pegasus, with an additional cost.
Just get mantic elves for your sharp eared needs
>>96765007what happens if you buy a pegasus for the warhorse instead of the bard?
>>96764926If you want to try, here are some instructions
>>96765012Fuck no, god! Of the things you can recommend from mantic the elves absolutely aren't amongst those.
>>96765013? Then you'd be breaking the rules, I suppose.The Capt. can either take a pegasus or a warhorse, with the warhorse having the option of having barding on it.
>>96765028no, no, the rules say the captain can take the warhose, which can have the bard or the pegasus
>>96765041No. The rules clearly state that the captain can take the warhose, which can have the bard, OR he can take the pegasus instead.
>>96765041the comas are used to point out another thing, not to start a list of options
>>96765013Do you people aspire to be this pedantically retarded
>>96765057retard
>>96765084I know my horse's rights, where's his pegasus?
>>96765097Pay the extra 50pts and he'll get his own pegasus.
>>96765007It doesn't need a ;Because it already says 'either' - if you read it the way you want to read it, the 2nd option implied by 'either' is missing.You guys really are massively ESL to read it that way
where can one find a good orc warboss on wyvern proxy? i really don't care for the gw one and i hate their resin
>>96765239Look for a wyvern from dungeon and lazers and just stick a ork on it with chains strapped around him on the wyverns cock.
>>96765239Avatars of war one is pretty nice
>>96765239it depends on what you want out of your wyvern, but if you want to avoid resin altogether then your options are limited archon studio has a plastic wyvern, of the more serpentine kind
>>96765239I've got no idea how big these are, but maybe d&d or monster hunter figures?
>>96765239it was a sin they didn't release one in plastic
Found an extra ten gors so i'm making a small unit of Warped Gors for some narrative games with friends. Its been a hot minute since i made some bits box mutant freaks, very nostalgic.
People really do just find random beastmen models out of their asshole in this general huh? Oddly fitting.
>>967653141 in 20 models in your plastic pile of shame randomly turn into a beastman for every year they're neglected
>>96765314Age of Sigmar didnt really know what units to sell Beastmen in so it was very common to end up with an extra half a unit of ungors/bestigors or gors.
>>96765314For some reason AoS often put half units in Beastmen bundles and start collectings. Never enough for a full unit so you buy a full unit seperately and now still have extras.
>>96765314Beastmen in aos were what space marines are in 40k. Even if you don't play them you end up with some sprues of em somehow.
>>96765314AoS third edition "the era of the beast" was rumored to be a big beasts of chaos event with a line expansion so a lot of people bought in but then GW decided to squat them from the setting and the whole narrative of the edition was fucking nothing filler so a lot of people never ended up building them back then. Now they are in TOW and more importantly back to their pre 7th edition flanderising its time to dust them off.Why havent you joined the herd brøther?
>>96765372also they had the longest hold out for the great start collecting boxes before the vanguard/spearhead ones so many picked them up because it was so cheap.
>>96765368>Beastmen in aos were what space marines are in 40k. Even if you don't play them you end up with some sprues of em somehow.Beastmen never featured in any starter or vs boxset
>>96765314Is man not entitled to the sweat of his baah?
>>96763339its my first time noticing the mountains in the background are rat shaped
>>96765304>fucking tigrex Very fitting for orcs actually
>>96765248>>96765260>>96765267>>96765304>>96765307thnx for the advice, gonna go with the avatars of war one.
>>96765314Fukken MOOOOOO bitch
>>96765372How did beastmen get flanderized post 7th? This is a genuine question, I know fuckall about the goats
>>96765527Originally pre WHFB they were "The Broo" a generic animal headed raper enemy type like Fimir, then in WHFB they became generic undivided jobbers for warriors of chaos. Then in 6th edition all the way in 2003 they finally got their own book Beastmen of Chaos.This was a very folk horror leaning book. The first page is a poem/song written in ye olde english about a foolish boy riding his pony into the woods after a bretonnian knight and finding the gor standing over his corpse and it ends badly for him as a warning for kids. Overall its a lot more lovecraft vibed. By that i mean actual lovecraft not the modern funkoised "cthulupop" lovecraft. Things out in the woods descended from degeneracy of humanity, our gross little family secret left in the wilds to die and never be spoken of but instead they thrived becoming the reason you dont go down to the woods alone.Then in 7th the game as a whole had a big tonal shift notable from the changes to army book covers. Beastmen lost most of their flavour as folk horror chaos and instead became generic barbarian hordes and it sold so badly they didnt even get an 8th edition book at all. Then in AoS they kept that for the most part and they didn't do much with them.Now in the Arcane Journal they are back to 6th edition beastmen, the real beastmen ethusiasts would argue, with great fluff like a story about towns in the frozen north being assaulted by nightmares warning them too late krawlmaw was coming to turn whole towns into proto chaos spawn but the army ignores warnings because "beastmen stick to the woods in winter". Right as dark red eyes stare at them out of the thickets around the camp.Basically if you like stuff like Shadow Over Innsmouth, Dagon, The VVITCH, Penders Fen, The Wicker Man and so on maybe give the Beastmen a look.
>>967655276th edition: brutal pagan savages with folkys twist on chaos7th edition: furry warriors of chaos undividedThis is a good primer about them:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tp13ogkitnw
>>96763339>TQIt's still Kislev. Because I still like the lore and I still want an army for them.Where are my fantasy Slavs GW?
>>96765527Beastmen actually come from a Chaosium game called Runequest aka Fantasy Call of Cthulhu that GW published for them in the UK and Europe in the late 80's. Eventually they got rolled into the early WHFB and became less greek mythology and more celtic folk tales. Then in 7th that was all cut out as they tried to make the game less narrative and more competitive tourney game. So a lot of armies got a bunch more heros but way less lore and all the new sculpts were designed more like rts models than rpg pieces.
>>96765601Don't forget the poo in 7th edition.
>>96765617>ufufufu whats wrong ice maiden, craving my McClackies>B-blyatt!
>>96765601
>>96765601>and it sold so badly they didnt even get an 8th edition book at all.They didn't get an 8th ed book for the same reason skaven didn't get one, they were very late 7th ed books and already written with 8th in mind.They did get a wave of models in 8th edition anyway, just like skaven.The difference you think is there is awfully exaggerated.
>>96765527Beastmen used to be the folk horror army with some Conan inspiration. Like something out of a Hellboy comic just set in the middle ages. Then they became furry Orcs. The Arcane Journal is a nice return to form.If you like warhammer fantasy and folksy horror i highly recommend picking up the 6th edition Beasts of Chaos army book. Its never that expensive online and worth it for the fluff and project ideas.
>>96765642You can really tell this book was a real passion project and the credits page is a list of all the goats.Pun not intended.
>>96763339>TQI hope we get a Norscan journal with an expansion of the Wolves of the Sea AoI. Apparently new marauders are coming, so I hope its a small release wave that includes some other Norscan flavored things.As for what else, there’s still two plotlines that haven’t been explored with journals: the greenskins sieging the Bretonnians and Dwarfs, and the whole Wood Elves trying to stop the search for Morghur. So either of those would be cool.
Is there a reason why gw isn't selling some night goblin units like fanatics and squigs?
>>96765714probably because they know that the old models, reproposed at the updated prices, wouldn't be competitive at all compared with the updated plastic models currently in the aos range.for the tow team it's an investment that's not going to pay off.
>>96765714AoS sells those models the same as River Trolls. I would think the older models were too hard or expensive for GW to produce so they just expect people to use the available for AoS
Is WHFB worth getting back into? About a decade ago I used to play a lot, mostly Bretonia. But interests faded, I've went through a normie phase. Was this game supplanted by AoS? I there anything new happening?
>>96765722>, wouldn't be competitive at all compared with the updated plastic models currently in the aos range.for the tow team it's an investment that's not going to pay off.That argument would be fair if they didn't sell other night goblin stuff that has a equivalent and the entire chaos warrior range
>>96765729>Is WHFB worth getting back into?it depends entirely on your local gaming scene or whether you like cathay.
>>96765727>AoS sells those models the same as River Trolls. I would think the older models were too hard or expensive for GW to produce so they just expect people to use the available for AoSI thought gw hates cross game stuff? Shame either way the models are charming and having easy access to them would be awesome
>>96765735>local gaming sceneDecent I presume? I live in shithole country but in the biggest city. The old FLGS still stands and seems to be in business. Swa few more open and stay opened over the years. >cathayThe not!Asia? Are they a big part of the game now?
>>96765743They do, but the orc and goblin army has a lot of stuff to facilitate using AoS models even having multiple base sizes for Giants to accommodate the new plastic super giantfrom AoS to be used as BoneGrinder for example or options like giving Squigs armour, which was never a model until AoS.
>>96765729Its done surprisingly well from what i think people expected. Though bare in mind AoS is currently on its second middling edition in a row and outside of a couple armies you can just use those models here and people are choosing to do that to have people to play with in some areas.They just put out a book with rules for small 500pts trimmed down games maybe grab some proxies and give that a go.
>>96765729What is more popular in your local area. And if both have groups, which has the less shitty people.Real truth nuke, both games are shit (TOW isn't that great, AoS is mid at best). If you goal is to play the game, play in the group with less shit people. If your goal is just painting and modeling then whichever game has the army that you want to paint.
>>96765745Check out your lgs and ask around if people play tow. In my experience it's very dependant on area, even on the specific store in the same city.
>>96765765>They just put out a book with rules for small 500pts trimmed down gamesWait, they are still releasing books for WHFB? Neat.>>96765767>>96765770Fair points. Thanks for the suggestion.
>>96765729TOW is fun enough. They just came out with Battle March which is similar to warbands/border patrol back in the day. Small points gamemode. Great for trying it out.
>>96765778book for TOW, but these new rules stem from older Border Patrol rules from I think 6th edition
>>96765778The Old World which is kind of 9th edition WHFB only its a prequel and blends 6th/7th and pretends 8th ever happened. All the rulebooks are at the top of the thread.
>>96765733For those they pretty much have to, because they're core plastic kits, and because at the very least they can somewhat compete by having a more favourable price per model.How much do you think 5 old squigs would cost?
>>96765800>>96765802>>96765803Damn. I might be back to playing ze stinky frenchmen horseguys. Thanks anons.
What does a 500pts warband even look like?
>>96765814Like this.
man i kinda regret spending my money on 40k this stuff seems way cooleranyways wich of the overprices oldworld boxes should i buy (need one thats easy to paint)
>>96765822>warrior>wizard>goons>little goons>big goons>dogssovl
>>96765813Sweet. They’re really good in TOW too. I definitely recommend making a little 500 point list and giving Battle March a whirl. Its surprising what you can fit in such a small list with the exceptions they give you.>>96765814Its mostly core obviously, but the single “one per 1000 points” exception goes a long way in letting you make something flavorful or fun. Usually you can fit a magic item or two as well.
>>96765822are you sure you can have a unit of gors so big at 500pts?
>>96765823Battalion boxes are a pretty good deal (for GW). Just pick whichever faction looks the coolest or looks the most fun to paint. Tomb Kings are pretty easy since its mostly drybrushing, and O&G are pretty forgiving too. Dwarfs some detail but it helps that the models are physically small.
>>96765823Depends what you like. Also some AoS boxes might be worth it you just need some square bases for the models.
>>9676583520 gors is fine, you can have 30 zombies which is a hell of a murderball.You can also have a single gyrocopter with dwarves if you want to be a proper cunt.
>>96765835Oh yeah, gors are dirt cheap, super well costed.
>>96765841so i could just like buy skaven from AOS?
>>96765887yeah
>>96765822This is what I like about WFB instead of AoS: armies look like armies, with a mixture of unit types, rather than the hyperfixation on (and incentives for) spamming one unit type in AoS -
>>96765887Yeah, though sometimes you gotta watch out with ranking up models, which aos models obviously weren't designed around. For skaven I think it's generally fine though.Also be sure to look online for secondhand stuff, skaven were in a recent starter box for aos so should be able to find quite a bit of discounted stuff out there.
>>96765887As long as it has a state sheet you can use it. In some cases its better to buy an aos spearhead because of whats in the box. For example there are some old start collectings that were shit for aos but great for tow that you can find online
>>96765601Invasion! had a great little story about beastmen and a painting in an old manor
>>96765908Are they even called armies in AoS or something else? I have no idea what the vernacular for that game is like, but it's not really a proper army if everyone is in skirmish formation. A slice of an army sure, but not a proper one. Formations are too integral to conducting large scale warfare.
>>96765951Yes. Skirmish formation hasn't stopped anyone from calling 40k armies armies either.
>>9676596840k armies don't look like armies either
>>96765908> Let's forgot the entire first 18 months of TOW, where the game looked more like AoS than AoS didLmao.
>>96765617I will never understand how anons on here find the ice sleds and bears more offensive than these bitches, btu whatever.
>>96765908> Typical Cathay army> Balloon, balloon, cannon cannon cannon, single unit of 14 jade warriors with a banner, max five man units of lancers with the stupid spam ringOh yes much army no spam> Typical dwarf army> Gyrocopters everywhere> Skirmishing rangers> Foot heroes with guns> Organ gun organ gun grudge throwerAh yes another traditional army> Beastmen> Chario chariot chariot chariot chariot chariot shaman on chariot with spam spell shaman on chariot with spam spell> Single draogre, single draogre, single draogre, single gor unit, skirmishing ungor blobsAlso very traditional!!Tldr you don't play and TOW has been spam city forever
>>96766048Or maybe I'm just not a win-at-all-costs faggot?
>>96766048Bro you don't know AoS then, your whole army will be like 1 unit type spammed and a leader that's just a buffing piece that looks like a jumped up version of that unit
>>96765835They’re 7 point per Gor
>>96766048>typical armiesThese are all tournament armies which is not representative of the game
>>96765835You might be thinking of Warped Gors that are like 16pts before command or upgrades, these are your basic bitch core Gors.
>>96766048The only lists people have access to are typically from people who are both a) attending and b) winning tournaments. Of course they're going to be lopsided, waacfags will waac, no sense paying them any mind. For example, you'd think chaos warriors didn't exist if you only looked at the competitive warriors of chaos lists! Look at the battle reports and army pictures people have been posting in these threads since TOW came out and you'll have a more representative idea of what armies look like. But you know this, or at least you should if you spent any amount of time in these threads, so I don't know why you're complaining.
>>96766036To be fair, I don't mind the sleds or the bears either, I just think they should have toned down the ice magic being used on the sleds. Most of the stuff that was in TWW3 wasn't really new either.
>>96765908>he says, in dragon fighting: the game
>>96765908Bro I’d be embarrassed to show you my list for chaos warriors or wood elves. Well I’d be embarrassed to show you my wood elves anyways but that’s besides the point.
>>96766048>you don't play and TOW has been spam city foreverNta but sounds like your local scene is just cancer, in the first place tournament player and waacfags shouldn't be seen as the standard of the average player because most casual player buy what looks cool or is thematic.
>>96766314>shouldn't be seen as the standard of the average player >most casual player buy what looks cool or is thematic.When you're spending a couple hundred to play a game you are not going into it with the knowledge that what you are playing is dogshit.
>>96765488GET OUT THA WAY
Still waiting for the chaos warshrine to come back…
>>96766454Id sell you mine anon. I doubt whatever rules it has can get me to build that fucking thing.
>>96766465It doesn’t have any rules atm
>>96766048I like playing big mournfang units with a stone horn and a thundertusk. Idk if it’s competitive but running big ass boys and their big ass pets is fun*obviously I have the prerequisite bulls for the bare minimum

I could use some hobby / proxy advice or suggestions. I'm planning on making TK that are snake cult themed. Problem is that apart from the Necropolis Knights there aren't other snake units in the official range. Immediately I do think I can proxy the Tomb Scorpion with a giant snake, I just need to find a good proxy model for it. I could also switch Tomb Swarms with swarms of snakes. I'm open to suggestions if anyone is aware of models that could be used as proxies among other hobby related things I could do to spice up my skellies.
>>96766781posting some stuff
>>96766857this is from lost kingdom miniatures
>>96766781could use Jungle Swarm minies for the Tomb Swarm
>>96766865this has an alternative skull head
>>96766877frostgrave lost archipelago has a few snakemen you may use to spice up your units of normal undeadthese are a plastic kit
>>96766857>>96766865>>96766877>>96766900These are pretty cool. The snakemen aren't something I considered as I thought about mostly skellies and snakes, but now that you mention it it's something I could consider proxying Ushabti as.>>96766875This could work, if I find them. But I think I may as well shop around for any kind of swarm. I'm sure there are lots.
>>96766900mierce miniatures has a lot of snakemen and snakemen monsters under Ýdron and Gorgonone page rules also has proxies for snake stalkers, snake riders and a snake mount for a herosnake swarms are easy to finddark sword, reaper, diehard minis also have some snakemen, diehard has some undead ones too, but only a few pic related is mini monster mayhem
>>96765908I agree with your sentiment but I fear that reality does not reflect it

>>96765823Tomb Kings are definitely the easiest if you know how to dry brush.
>>96767878
>>96763559>GW never treated Wood Elves right.They don't know what to do with them, they're expensive lightly armored skirmishers in a game about smashing blocks into each other. They're either going to be wet noodles or absolutely cancer with little room in between.
What's the minimum standard for tabletop?
>>96768243So the opposite issue of dwarves
>>96766833why was the grom video deleted?
>>96768291Bare minimum is basecoat of minimum 3 colors.
>>96768291different base colors for skin, metallics, clothes and basedo that and it's the absolute minimum that's still going to look painted on the table
What if:Wood Elf melee list?(eternal guard look cool)
>>96765714They want you to buy TOW specific models for TOW because buying AoS models that exist in both systems mean you're buying one kit for two games instead of potentially two kits for two games
>>96765601>Then in 7th the game as a whole had a big tonal shift notable from the changes to army book covers. Beastmen lost most of their flavour as folk horror chaos and instead became generic barbarian hordesYou wish they were generic barbarians; 7th made them the setting's official actual legitimate (I'm really not joking) scat fetishists.
>>96765722They do sell equivalents of other models though
>>96768387The AoS version came out later, I also am not sure if they would fit in the same base
>>96768386>generic barbarian hordesWhat also bugs me about that is they aren't barbarian, they're anarchists.
>>96768386Barbarism and bowel movements are intimately tied to each other.
>>96768456What do you think barbarian means?
>>96768366A recent tournament runner up Wood Elf list was CC oriented, but they leaned into dryads and treekin and tree men not eternal guard.
>>96768386
>>96768610I think he's referencing a story where two herds cross paths in the forest and their leaders fight and the one that wins ends up killing the other and then shitting on his corpse.
I don't know why I trusted the out of date online info that Ironguts come with square bases alongside circles. It's just circles.
>>96768624I think they stopped doing that in 3rd edition like 8 years ago my man.
>>96768610>>96768616Not just that, the timeline had stuff like>Beastmen sack an abbey and poop all over it>Beastmen capture this battle standard and poop all over itIt's like they were writing about the indian menace before anyone else really became aware of it.
>>96768616>>96768665
>>96768603A culture considered lesser than the person talking about it. Often described as being less civil, more aggressive, and having the wrong gods.An anarchist society hates all civilizations. It's not generic. It's far more extreme. It's flanderizing beastmen by making them more civilized than they should be.
>>96768830Barbarian is an insult for unwashed foreigners that just want to destroy shit and speak gutterspeak. It literally comes from "and their stupid language sounds like 'barbarbar' all the time". It doesn't mean vikings or marauders or something like that. It straight up is an insult for country trash.
>>96768852and the Beastmen are most assuredly the countriest of country trash.
>>96768852So exactly what I wrote except you added the pseudo intellectualism about barbarbar. Yes we're on /tg/ we all knew that factoid already. And you also didn't address that beastmen aren't barbarians, they're anarchists.
I am having an autistic fit trying to figure out if I should go for the older TOW branded night goblins or the newer 8th edition night goblins that are AoS branded. I like the 8th edition ones for the netters and the fact that the fanatic sculpts match them best. I like the older tow ones because they would match the aesthetic of any goblins I will potentially pick up in the future.
>>96765601Aos changed them up a little bit, mostly their relation to the gods, not really in regards to their folk horror vs barbarian despoiler dichotomy. They were very much still the latter in aos.
>>96768893>beastmen aren't barbarians, they're anarchistsNTA, they're not anarchists, for all their savagery they still have customs and taboos they all follow like you can't kill a shaman, killing a beastlord outside of a challenge is a no-no, they slap together chariots, they're semi-nomadic but have fixed shrines in the form of herdstones.
>>96768830>A culture considered lesser than the person talking about it. Often described as being less civil, more aggressive, and having the wrong godsperfectly applying to beastmen
>>96768893>>96768926>>96768933Beastmen are animals. An animal doesn't have a culture because it has territory in which it hunts, or because it has a den and social structure.
>>96768905They're not from 8th ed, but 7th.Pick the aos branded ones, you can calm your tism with the fact night goblins are indeed smaller than plain goblins
>>96768945They have the wheel, fire and even writing, anon. You lost this one, move on.
>>96768830Beastmen aren't anarchists they have religion and a culture they just specifically hate human culture because of their origins are mutants and gavebeasts.
Bro shows up with the most disgusting netlist you've ever seen >Your reaction?Turns out although the list is filthy, each model is lovingly painted, lots of conversions, he even hands you a lore primer for His Dudes >Your reaction?After he goes 5-0 he admits the army was commissioned including the one page lore primer >Your reaction?
>>96768955So do nogs, anon. Well, nowadays anyway. What's your point?
>>96768974Unlike nogs beastmen developed all those on their own, so they're already one step ahead of those animals.
>>96768971Commission me a fluffy army of my choice richfag and I promise to tolerate one (1) game with you per month.
>>96768945Humans are animals dumbass
Skirmishers are generally fine on rounds right? For dryads, specifically.
>>96769056Thats usually how most are signified as that with stuff like gobbo fanatics.
>>96769052>he tRuStS the ScIeNcESure buddy and the earth is round too!
>>96769095>he thinks the earth is a square plate mate
>>96769122Please, it's clearly a triangle, God just rounded out the corners
