Do you use any proxies?

h fuck you GW these guys are 1000% cooler then the darkoath marauders I have, I might proxy them as warriors though? Have my darkoath themed army keep its theme but expand on the units I can use
>>

Man whoever they got for the Darkoath really hated the army
>>
>>96795882
>I might proxy them as warriors though? Have my darkoath themed army keep its theme but expand on the units I can use
Oh, that's actually a pretty cool idea, now I'm tempted...I wanted to do a barbarian STD army in AoS using Darkoath+some of the other cultist kits but the sticking point was always that not having any actual elites is rough. A thematic full barbarian army sounds amazing by comparison.
>>
>>96795834

Happy for StD players, that's a pretty good release
>>
>>96795834
>TQ
Only if they’re something pleasant to paint. Got some stuff from dungeons and lazers I’m converting to chaos spawn. Still looking around for something plastic for a second lord of change to accent my 1st one.
>>
>>96795834
I'm trying to make bird themed Monsta-killaz but I need something for a token.
>>
>tq
not really since until recently only the gw store was within reasonable distance to play games. The only thing stopping me from darkoath were the horrible basic marauders so I'll use the fuck outta these.
>>96795893
the basic marauders are just uniquely terrible. Mogged to high heavens by the Savagers and now by these guys. Can't imagine a lot of people are going to pick them up after this marauder release.

does someone have that little comic snippet from dark elves approaching an ork boss, saying something like "we offer the head of your most hated for". a goblin then whispers something into the ork bosses ear. then he chops the dark elf in two and yells something like "ZOG IT, KRUMP EM LADS!"
>>

>Can't imagine a lot of people are going to pick them up after this marauder release.
GW is not going to be selling them after this marauder release, so I don't think they're that broken up about it.
>>
>>96795971
I meant darkoath marauders, not old old world chaos marauders. Man, what annoying terminology
>>
>>96795952
Just a skull? I don't know, I was thinking of grot with artificial wings
>>
>>96795913
vulture or whatever trying to fly away with a grot in its talons

Chaos Mammoth SOON?
>>
>>96796011
That's good
>>
>>96795949
it was most probably part of the Warhammer age of reckoning comics, prelude to war
>>
>>96796060
I think that was one of the main tow rumours, along with a chaos dragon possibly? might be wrong on the dragon though
>>
>TOW might get new trad Goblin infantry
Finally a full Gitmob army
>>
>>96795893
Darkoath are just a little goofy because they took the decorative armour on the heroes and presented it as a random accumulation on the path to full chaos warrior equipment
They look like a bloodbowl team with a random mix of arm, knee, and shoulder guards. Doesn't help the hair is some anime looking shit and the poses are so exaggerated
>>
I needed to work on my minis anyways.
>>
>>96796146
the hair on darkoath marauders is so off putting, the heads are by far the worst part of the kit. I get it's a warhammer staple but the mohawks on every model just looks shitty.
>>
>>96796146
Come on, man, just admit it. The fat chicks were the main issue. You're not on Facebook, you can be honest here.
>>
>20 dudes/10 horses to a box will mean they'll almost certainly end up being better VALUE than Darkoaths too
Yeah you'll never see savage models again. Anyone who already bought into them is grinding their teeth right now.
>>
>>96796168
Nta but the fat chicks, the awful hair, and bad face sculpts were all awful looking
>>
>released almost a decade ago
>still mogs the rest of his subfaction with only really the warqueen and maybe savagers even coming close
how did he do it? honestly silver tower was fucking great and every mini bar the spiderlings looks better than the their actual ranges. GW was locked in for that box

Nah, im fine with our Darkoath.

Hey, GW, where is our Warhammer Quest reveal?? Anyway, happy that TOW get new things
>>
>>96796273
He is pretty cool. I still prefer the conan asthetic over vikings, but yeah the dark oath execution was a bit underwhelming for the main release.
>>
>>96796146
Yes, the poses are exaggerated, like the sculptor's only reference was movie combat scenes, and then he chose to stylize it. They look like they are in a video game moving in slow-mo to telegraph their moves so the player has time to press dodge.
>>96796168
I can headswap the ugly hair cuts and faces. I can paint the skin whatever skin colour I like. But re-posing an entire box of minis is a lot of work if the models don't otherwise spark joy. (NTA)
>>
>>96795979
Eh, it's not necessarily an either/or situation. I have Darkoath, I'll probably buy this box as well. More barbarians for the barbarian horde.

I love the design, but painting 40 of these guys with so much detail, texture and material sounds like a nightmare. Might just grab a single unit to proxy with the Darkoath, but definitely not grabbing the set.
>>
>>96795834
Wow, these really underscore just how terrible the darkoath release was.
Not a fat bitch or limp anime haircut in sight.
>>
>>96796168
I don't mind a fat bitch but she does stand out amongst a homogenous ripped unit otherwise
>>
>>96796365
Even worse when you use them for tow, what's the point of all those detail when half the units can barely be seen in the middle ranks?
>>
I wish I was better at painting so I could do my Clawlord justice

>>96796486
They look fine anon, dont beat yourself up.
>>
>>96796480
>aosissy who never played WHFB doesn't know you do can get away with doing full detail on only the front rank

>>96796456
One wonders if they're giving the activists a trial-period with gayness, fat hoes, female commanders and female led books to test the waters to see if people actually buy into it.

...

Nah, theyre just that dumb.

Knight was revealed on tuesday, hopefully we'll get another reveal tomorrow

>>96796635
I really hope they show some of the bad guys and don’t actually show it off model by model until Christmas
>>
>>96796514
Eh.. so? That refutes nothing I said. I said I hoped this was a trial period, which we're clearly still in.
>>
Was Cursed City not kindof shit? or are people excited only for the models?
>>
>>96796635
I cross my fingers. Maybe multiple heroes (1 model per week sounds horrible)
>>
>>96796667
It was good, but not perfect obviously. Not the greatest dungeoncrawler, but not a bad one. Andnthe models are great.
>>
>>96796667
Cursed city was fine, it just had major productions issues that fucked over the whole release. I remember it being fairly fun
>>
What is there to look forward to if your army book already dropped and it's not very good
>>
>>96796667
Yeah, pretty much
They don't even have board tiles this time
>>
>>96796667
It wasn’t as good as silver tower but it wasn’t bad. I’m personally looking forward to playing the new quest. Especially after seeing the quirk on the manticore knight.
>>
>Warhammer Quest expansions won't be boxed games but books and card packs
>>
>>96796667
Never played it, but I did enjoy the Ulfenwatch, and they obviously went on to be the template of the skeletons.
I'm excited to see some Nurgle stuff.
>>
>>96796691
Well this isn’t tow where you’re army will be stagnant forever (looking at my shelved wood elves) and my kruel boyz were better post siege of ghyran than the initial book.
>>
>>96796699
the decision to not have Dungeon Tiles and instead go for a Map book is one I'm not sure about
>>
>>96796691
Smaller waves like Ironjawz in last edition or stuff like warcry
>>
>>96796691
Thug it out, work on some other stuff, hope gw buffs them in a scourge of ghyran esque fashion
Those are your three options.
>>
>>96796691
Warcry, campaign book releases, new models in Spearheads, seasonal rules
>>
>>96796709
>>96796711
Do you think that there will be more stuff added to Skaven before the next edition? I can scant compel myself to finish any models with how demoralized I feel.
>>
>>96795882
If Chaos Marauders are priced the same as Jade Warriors they'll be $90.00 for 20, Darkoath are $60.00 for 10
Hard to justify getting the AoS ones even if they were priced the same
>>
>>96796727
Your rules are fine what are you on about?
>>
>>96796508
I think he's fine, if anything you can always just repaint him as you get better. (Or keep him to remind yourself of how far you've come and all that jazz.)

I've got my custom Moulder Lord: Skrote who was one of my first greenstuff works and kitbashes. Did a similar idea again but did a slightly better paint job at least (though I still love the original)
>>
>>96796730
But what about all the diversity and body positivity? Surely that's worth something!
>>
>>96796727
Yes
>>
>>96796730
How much points is it for tow?
>>
>>96795834
these new marauders look decent, but kind of really exemplify why square based rank formations are jsut absolute shit to look at.

it takes a bunch of individually cool models and huddles them together into an indistinguishable mass of visual noise. ironically these would look much better in aos where models are spaced out a bit, the rank formation makes them look like shit
>>
>>96796667
Yes, people buy GW stuff for models
>>
>>96795834
>Do you use any proxies?

Not as often as I'd like to say I do, most proxying I do is underworlds dudes I have painted replacing their normal hero counterparts. I do have a custom kitbashed daemon prince from a Foromoid crusher, and some stuff for my 40k orks made from various other kits. But generally it's less a proxy and more a heavy kitbash.
>>
>>96796786
6ppm
>>
>>96796696
I'm kind of excited for the book idea, one of the biggest hurdles to getting me to drag my friends into playing shit is the setup time being like 40 god damn minutes. Having something like a little choose your own dungeon run booklet that has the encounters laid out like the OG heroquest would be fucking neat.
>>
>>96796754
I'm not really interested in how well an army performs; my primary interest in a Warhammer army lies in customization and units that "do things". Skaven currently have really bland enhancements and their heroes boast underwhelming abilities (the Arch-Warlock's ability is my go-to as an example of the kind of 40k-esque rule that I don't like to see).
>>
>>96796819
Path to glory
>>
>>96796767
TOW marauders are all men and $90 for 20
The price of a man is $4.5
AoS darkoath are 50% women and $60 for 10
Therefore we know the price of a women is $7.5
>>
>>96796786
Between 6 and 11 points per model, depending on which options you pick, with an additional 17 points added if you take a chieftain, standard bearer, and musician.
>>
>>96796844
If you've people who are willing to play narrative modes at your LGS, then I'm envious.
>>
>>96796727
Rumour has it they're getting new eshin stuff, possibly tied to some spearhead starter set thingy.
>>96796730
They look quite a bit bulkier than jade warriors though. Will probably still be prided better than darkoath per model but i'm thinking they'll be more costly than jade warriors
>>
I like the Sylvaneth and their nature vibe but then I remember they are made out of plastics and building/painting them releases microplastics into the world :(
>>
>>96796894
>building/painting them releases microplastics into the world :(
not if you eat them
>>
>>96796894
Make your own. Carve them out of wood.
>>
>>96796855
is that rare? I have two lgs where i frequent where I can always get a game for narrative, and i've seen people get narrative games for aos going on in other lgs in passing. Granted I live in a big city so maybe its just a numbers thing.
Almost makes me worried about what the aos scene will look like in the state I move to next.

>>
I never thought about it, but it is true that the Darkoath stalk hot deserts and jungles as well.
I mean, the Norscans had Skeggi, but still.
>>
Question to those experts that can judge every size /dimension with your eyes: would new Marauders fit on 25mm bases (I wonna get them for mini agnostic skirmish games) or do I need those weird 28,5mm ones?
>>
>>96796788
>>96796963
Formations look good if it's normal dudes with pikes and halbers or whatever. When it's orcs or marauders the size of 3 normal guys using big fantasy flails then the formations start to look off. In this case made worse by the insane amount of detail all just blending together into a nondescript brown sludge
>>
>>96796977
I have zero doubt they fast tracked them because the dark oath release failed so hard.
>>
>>96797054
I think the sun is setting on the 25mm bases
>>
>>96796060
I interpret that more as a "we might do something like that down the line" rather than a "coming very soon". They would have straight up made Norsca it's own thing if they were going to do that, instead they got souped into the rest of chaos warriors.
>>
>>96797083
What's the logic behind that?
>The sculpts don't sell and so we fast-track a remake and change game system
?
>>
>>96797102
Every single aos player that buys marauders will get these instead from now on. The office ordered a do over.
>>
>>96796977
You have to remember the retarded self-imposed inter-department competition GW enforced.
>>
Darkoath would've been based if it was all just a bunch of conans and red sonjas like the chief and warqueen. Unfortunately gw is allergic to hot women and we ended up with a bunch of awkward college students instead.
>>
>>96797083
The rumor is that they are the repurposed leftovers from a cancelled Norscan army
>>
>>96797134
Yeah. Nobody would have cared if the black standard bearer woman was Grace Jones in Conan the Destroyer, but she looks like she stumbled out of a Detroit McDonald's. They completely squandered the standard they set with the hero models.
>>
>>96797142
What went wrong for them to cancel it?
>>
I still feel like 70% of AoS could fit into the Old World
>>
>>96797142
no it isn't, you just thought of it and decided that sounded slightly plausible so you wasted a post saying it
>>
>>96797148
I'd rather not.
>>
>>96797134
People blame wokeness and blacks and women, but honestly one of the worst offending elements was the way they did fur and hair in that Goku style.

>>96797024
If you believe that blacks are inherently stronger and more aggressive then you would want them as the core of any force.

>inb4 THEY NOT DISCIPLINNED!!!
Yes they are, when trained. Look at the most popular and physically demanding teamsports.

Anyway I just ordered food and my black delivery driver was named Pacifique. Need to start an army with a black general now, that is too good to go to waste.
>>
>>96797072
this is exactly my point. it only looks good on neat little tin soldiers, and looks very bad on anything remotely interesting like the above new marauders.

god

if i could just...if i could just get a game system that marries age of sigmars core rules and objective/scoring play with like old worlds magic item, runes, wargear, listbuilding and allies systems, and maybe a 40k 6 strategems per subfaction thrown in. that would be perfect. idk, maybe you could also switch it to alternating activations.

but it feels like anyone thats trying to combine these ideas always goes for ultra small skirmish scale nonsense instead of full blown armies.
>>
>>96797282
>>96797311
Ok I came up with something:
a wizard lives in a warlike society - he conjures up a magical tower where he can chain up with magical bindings the most warmongering and aggressive elements of his society: the minister of war, the bloodthirsty general, the unruly youth, the mob rouser, the unthinking warriors, they all end up chained in his tower.
Hopping around in an effeminate and flamboyant way, the wizard catches all of these elements, and in the end, the nation, which was about to go to war, is peaceful instead.
The wizard goes around bragging about the magical tower and keeps ensnaring proud warriors and any wrathful elements of his country.

...That's the first person I would think of whereas Khorne would open a portal in his bedroom and send a Bloodthirster.
>>
>>96797142
This is not a "rumour" and never has been posted anywhere in advance of today as a predictive item.

It is speculative theorycrafting from a 4channer (the place that brought you qanon and has a perpetually active thread for people to summon succubi wives).
>>
>>96797148
The Old World introduced Cathay which is frankly whacky AoS bullshit as far as WHF goes so there's no reason IDK or KO can't fit either

can you fit kronys's head on karazais pose and vice versa? or is the head part of the whole neck assembly and you would have to saw it apart to do that?

AoS 1e didn't have any equipment options until Malign Sorcery and the GHBs. Early battletomes were just fluff and battalions.
AoS never had WHFB style magic items, at best you had a 12 artefact list per realm which you could only take one per hero.
That's not to mention list building, scoring, etc. What a retard

Why did GW heavily cut down on both social meida presence and random Warcom shit like comics?

I think you're being generous and for that reason I agree. I don't want any BL novels for TOW, just keep the journals flowing and keep them faithful to the setting. I can't actually believe it. I knew marauders were coming because of the rumor, but I fully expected them to be half ethnic like Darkoath. This is a good day not just for TOW but for GW. This may mean that we are moving past making everyone half black because critical race theory.

You could replace BoC with any faction and it would be true. Army refreshes always sell well and GW still doesn't seem to grasp that they could do that with more regularity and not have to put out as much Marineslop to make sure the stupid line goes up every quarter while making more people happy.

It's not terrible, but I don't think it's very interesting, even if I do like the premise of it being Anabasis but with Knighthly crusaders, but the characters are bad and don't feel very fleshed out, action scenes are decent enough but to few and far between and then there all the DEI/ women, gays and disabled popele in the book which makes a certain group of poeple twich which didn't do the book any favours.

BoC are chaos redshirts, they're probably lowest on priority for new kits. Empire/Helves are probably next if we go by popularity.

I play both games and I avoid /wfg/ like the plague because it's full of nasty unpleasant freaks. I imagine I'm not alone in this.
>>
>>96798310
You’d think they would give them something on their release. Or at least squat the dryads for them. Instead they got a uh, a narrative AOI that’s dedicated for fighting beastmen? Is that right? Along with a copy pasted all cav list? Something like an all dryad list should have been a thing.
>>
>>96798310
>Wood elves didn't get anything and I imagine they have AoS abandoned projects to recycle
Doubtful, Sylvaneth were one of the first factions GW settled for a style on back in 1e. If they had anything planned beyond the wierd aelftrees we would have had something by now.
>for that just as the marauders were probably originally planned for AoS at some point
Lmao, this is nonsense cope. They wouldn't have bothered with the darkoafs StD got if the others were planned for AoS originally.
>>
>>96798317
I'm aware of their popularity here, but historically beastmen have been bottom of the barrel popularity wise alongside (never updated 6e) brets, TK and Welves.

Warcom barely has any fun stuff anymore. Used to check it daily during classes and later work, but now I really can't be bothered anymore. Just clock in for the tuesday rumour engine now.
Honestly kinda weird that they're cheaping out on it, the painting videos, all that stuff. It's been a very big part of their changing communication strategy since 2014/15 that's helped them explode in popularity since then.
>>
>>96798408
>they’re skirmishers…with mediocre rules…
Toughness 4 skirmishers for 13ppm isn't bad, they're surprisingly resilient to conventional shooting so they make decent screens. Just don't expect them to do much more, but then again pretty much everything that isn't the welves' dragon hits like a wet noodle and comes with cardboard for armour, which is their real problem.
>>

Really all you need is Sunday preview, Monday reveal, Tuesday Rumor engine, and possibly Friday surprise reveal.

>>96798310
Normally I make fun of the people who think this or that old world release was planned for aos since they're quite clearly different in style and design (ranked up vs round dynamic) but these guys do genuinely look like they'd fit better on round bases. I still don't think they're designed for aos or anything mind you, but for once I can actually understand why someone would think that.

Goblin fanatics are the one thing that's on rounds because they are their own unique thing. They can never be in combat and this don't need to rank up. They are more like spell markers than actual units.
>>
>>96798530
>still don't think they're designed for aos or anything mind you, but for once I can actually understand why someone would think that.
NTA, same but I wouldn't be surprised if these got moved up because the darkoafs release was poorly received. If only for because the TOW team will eat their sales what with GW's bean counter driven department rivalry.

It's clearly a tree spirit themed list. Yes it's not 100 dryads but she took 40 of them, which is 40 more than is required for a wood elf list, so they clearly aren't bad.

They all kinda get Idoneth society structure wrong compared to how they're written in the battletome, but Court of the Blind King and Soulslayer are fun and get you glimpses at IDK life outside of war. Children of Teclis is interesting if a bit misery-porn but it's definitely more of an LRL novel. Broken Realms: Teclis has some cool IDK scenes, that is before Morathi gets her spotlight.

Still mad about darkoath marauders. Extremely cool chieftain back in silver tower. Cool warqueen with malign portents. A whole host of cool warbands for warcry. Then the main release comes along and they look like shit. The horses were alright, chieftain was okay, wilderfiend kind of out there but fine sure. But your bread and butter marauders? Absolute fucking garbage. What a letdown for like 7 years of teasing. These new marauders aren't perfect, but I'm willing to bet we'll see a whole bunch of them on rounds very soon. Can't imagine darkoath marauders are going to move a lot of stock after.

Unfortunately not. I had the smallest kernel of hope swept away when the rumor we had for them was "2 heroes but 3 units and endless spells" turned out to be the worst possible outcome of it. I saw the Ikon and Mathaela in the Warcom mess-up and knew it was a damn dual-build hero. I think I would've been at least whelmed if we had gotten 1 hero and a dual build unit kit like KO, but that was not to be. Now our roster has literally twice as many heroes as it does unit options.

First edition: Age of Sigmar-Order invasion
Second- Arcanum Optimar/Soul Wars - Death invasion

So Fifth should be an Order faction invading the Mortal Realms. So Malerion Vs ???

Ok so Chaos runs on thoughts and emotions.
With Slaanehs being sort of cut off from that great source of power some egotistic demons and mortal champions thought that it's a great opportunity to steal the spotlight.
So instead of trying to save Slaaensh they went "i'm Slaanehs now" and formed cults venerating them as the true god, hoping they canfake their way into replacing Slaanesh.

That's opposit of Godseekers, who devoted temselves torescuing real Slaanehs

Idoneth are fairly low tier in popularity. Now quite fyreslayer/tzeentch/slaanesh tier but not too far ahead either. I think they're the coolest shit but that's not a widespread opinion. Might be a vicious cycle where a limited range begets low popularity, which begets infrequent updates.
>>96799246
You'd think an atlantis faction would be more popular, it's a pretty established trope. Give them some heavy hoplite infantry to sell the greek connection, see if that works.
>>
>>96799357
NTA but were not Hedonites fairly popular?

>>
>>96799374
No, nobody actually like the half naked twink stuff besides shitposters.
>>
>>96799392
only thing i dont like about it is that there arent really any alternate leg poses or posture for the bull half, nor any alternate posing for the torsos, so more than 3-6 of this guys are going to get very repetitive looking very fast
>>
>>96799319
They can use bullets too. The guns can be loaded with physical bullets for special effects
>>
>>96799422
>o more than 3-6 of this guys are going to get very repetitive looking very fast
Meh, they're rare in lore so you shouldn't have more than like 3 on the table anyway. Don't be a WAACFAG.
>>
>>96799191
>Idoneth Deepkin are fairly popular? Mid tier popularity? Maybe a bit higher.
No, all bald only sells when it's marines and only because marinefags buy reflexively. Bald elves is double bad, don't know what they were thinking with that. Namarti are fine, they're soulless freaks barely a step above humans, but akhaelians and isharans should have had glorious locks if they're supposed to be the "real" full soul elves.
>>
>>96799425
Source? Never heard of them using bullets.

>>96799446
Also too many women.

>>96799300
Don't get your hopes up, it's not much, but in response to somebody complaining that krethusa/morai-heg stuff was 'kicking the umbraneth can down the road in favour of more witch elves' or something to that effect, whitefang commented that it would be more like the opposite. Again, not much, but at least confirms that they're something gw is working on and that they will likely be souped with dok.

Not! Antarctica is a second Chaos Waste hell, it's only not invading because their is an ocean around it. No one lives there

I do have to say I do appreciate sylvaneth adopting Nurgle as their main nemesis rather than beasts of chaos. Made wood elves feel like baby sitters in the fantasy setting.

Similar to chorfs then, neat. 4e is probably too dense with releases already but malerion dropping in fifth is looking fairly likely.
>>96799551
Kharadron are probably one of the hardest factions to retrofit into whfb. Others you can sort of cram in there with tasteful retcons but kharadrons are just a little too advanced for the setting I think. If they have to exist anywhere make them nomadic in mallus !notpacific, with fuel stations on volcanic islets that are otherwise uninhabitable due to some bullshit
>>
>>96799611
Thank you, kind anon.

>>96799629
What are Chorfs detecting in Ulgu? Malerion?

>>96799588
if humans can live in norsca and elves on the island of dawn, then dwarfs can live on the coasts of the south pole closest to the darklands and the sea in-between

Just contrarians. 40kg is the same with a seemingly unnatural amount of people posting about Dark Eldar. No one genuinely believes that makes them popular.
>>
Is the Sorceress on Black Dragon a good kit? It's quite cheap, or is it likely to be replaced if the Ulgurothi ever show up?
>>
>>96800001
The dark Eldar 40K guy is literally one dude and he never posts models. The beast guys post models and their WIP.

>>96799805
Your overweight female knights of colour are riding high fantasy horses.

>>96800013
It’s going to be sent back to TOW along with the rest of the current range after the update.
>>
>>96800013
it's likely to be unceremoniously dropped with no real substitute

best case scenario you can use your sorceress on dragon to proxy snek-morathi if you don't want to buy that one but still want to field her rules.
>>
>>96800020
When Ulgurothi come out you mean? Or what update?
>>96800024
Sure, but Black Dragons are kind of a Dark Elf/Malekith special, it seems unlikely to me they wont have dragons of some sort, particularly when DoK have none.

I don’t mind this new art at all.
>>
>>96800038
Yes. I don’t actually know the timeline. Whether they will wait for them to release before sending them back or if they plan on sending dark elves back sooner and then just having them cross exist like dispossessed/dwarfs in both systems. But like the dispossessed, they will be completely removed from AoS, it’s a matter of when and not if.
>>
>>96800013
We know Dispossessed are leaving CoS with the upcoming battletome which will be early next year. It would be really odd if CoS was Humans and leftovers Dark Elves after that... I doubt they'll last.
I wouldn't purchase anything unless you're fine with playing their old rules regardless of what the new battletome states. You should probably download the faction pack before it's gone because they may not be available as legends rules though others have been
>>
>>96800038
You could just buy it to play it now. Then when it gets moved to TOW you’ll have an army ready to go once you rebase. Double the value. Just don’t tell GW or you will be blacklisted.
>>
>>96800063

>>
>>96799914
Best to view that as it's own hobby. if you seek warhammer miniature specific advice it'll mostly be horrible
Buy some chavant/monster clay and experiment with trad sculpting resources. It's reusable clay so you can make mistakes.
>>
>>96800077
Teclis didn't really have much association with any of those things in fantasy right? Maybe phoenixes, but eh. Frankly im glad they dropped the lions, that could have flanderized the faction to hell and back with that.
We still dont know what happened between Malerion and his dragon, and I wouldnt put it behind his faction to steal either stormcast or Seraphon dracothian eggs, and infuse them with some ulgu magic to mutate them. Which is something that Teclis...probably wouldnt do. Maybe.
>>
>>96799744
don't worry, they'll give IDK another pity hero next edition so you don't feel left out

I meant with greenstuff, but ill try asking in wip
>>
>>96800108
So what? Like teclis has any connection to kangaroo deer and cows.
>>
>>96800115
that's the last thing you should do... Look into sculpting advice generally. You'll just size down from that
Or ignore the fundamentals and try this one trick to sculpt a fur cloak by tugging and pulling greenstuff
>>
>>96800108
>Teclis didn't really have much association with any of those things in fantasy right?
teclis taught his elven creations about how cool the original high elves were because they rode dragons
if gw wanted the faction to have dragons, they would have had dragons

gw doesn't want factions other than stormcasts to have dragons (dead ones don't count)
>>
>>96800148
you cant write all the dragons are dead except for a couple and then just start handing them out everywhere.
>>
>>96800108
Malekith doesn't have an association with dragons either.
He just rode one.

So we get Darkoath and ToW gets Whiteoath? Not very fair.

kharadron don't use bullets, they use something called aethershot that's some derivative of aethergold. It's a gas that hardens into a solid on contact with air, and self-propels from the violent reaction that causes. They don't need to reload at all, as long as they've got it in the tank. There's some special ammunition that's more traditional, though

Brokk's shit is all custom-made because he's rich and it helps his branding, so he can afford using less efficient weaponry that gives him more of a bang. None of it is unique technology, though, it's just a triple-barreled type of aethercannon and aetherblasters built into his moustache
>>
>>96800426
probably because noone cares about the name of malekith's second dragon mount, who died like 1% into the end times anyway. it's obvious why the name would go to a more anti-daemon, made of magic take on the Lizardmen, it's because its a morph of seraphim and angel shit. i want to know why noone asks why that dragon had that name, it doesnt really fit it

who cares? thats not a distinction aos generally makes at all. its very high fantasy, it blends magic and mundane all over the place, weather its aether infused steamworks, dwarfs hammering golden letters of magical godflesh into their bodies to beef up their muscles, daemonsmiths imbuing iron machines with demon souls, etc.
