>>96885279So sad that chorfs need tactical rocks the size of themselves just to be the same height as a steelhelm
>TQNew deathbringer, honestly the only thing that competes with him is the other slaughter priest that’s no longer available, which sucks. For non chaos…it’s gotta be something in lumineths range. Light of eltharion.
Now that the dust has settled, why did the HoH flop?
>>96885279>tqIdoneth have a bunch of great ones. Both versions of the tidecaster are very nice, I'm also partial to the soulscryer. But the goat remains lothann, I mean look at this fucker.
>>96885279>TQGenuinely might be the Skullgrinder. He just looks brütal.
>>96885335People liked the idea of Helsmiths more so than Helsmiths
>TQEasy
>>96885279>TQAbhorrant Archregent. I'm working through my grey pile right now but I know I will buy FEC sooner or later. Should I buy the old spearhead now or will it me available in the future?
>>96885395they really need to give tzeentch their fucking not!forsaken unit, silver tower scenery and fix pink horrors
>>96885335Now that the dust has settled and HoH are a certified hit, why is anon still seething?
>>96885444He'd be a lot less annoying if he did this with say shitmob or darkoath or some other thing that actually flopped. But these fuckers sold out in 5 min with gw having to print more. Also didn't he get the mop last thread?
>>96885468GW fumbled the prices for Gitmob so bad it's unbelievable. I love the models, but I just can't physically bring myself to pay the money required for the chariot hero or catapult. Not even that I can't afford it, it's just such an obvious ripoff that I can't bring myself to push the buy button.
>>96885279>TQRight now I think this guy but it might be because he's freshly finished
>>96885495Gw loves making chariots in general expensive as fuck for some reason. The two smallers ones are 76 yuros, so 38 per kit is actually par for the course for gw. Similarily the snarlpack are priced about the same as other 3x 75mm monstrous cavalry at 50, aggradons and bullcentaurs are 51.25 for example, although those of course are a lot bulkier than some gits on a big wolf. But the boss chariot holy shit, 80 fucking euros for a fat goblin on a chariot. What the fuck why??
>>96885522I know some people don't like it, but the metallic direction gw went with lizard-men is a huge plus for me with the new range. Anyways, good job anon. Its perfection.
>>96885522Always love seeing your lizards, anon. When do you think you'll do an army shot if you haven't already?>>96885549Yeah, it goes a long way in making them feel more "cosmic".
>>96885378yes yes, you told us before. quit samefagging your stale bait
>>96885522Damn anon that's clean, good job>>96885549I like it in some aspect, like this guy's crest is stellar, but there's other parts where it doesn't land for me, like the skink cavalry weird spears, or the saurus shields that are just a little bit too much. It's not the worst thing in the world when it doesn't land, but I don't like it all the time either. On the whole though the lizardman refresh was excellent and I'm looking forward to more>>96885608Lel gottem
>>96885395With they made some comemorative alt sculpts for this guy to show off some more unique familiars and thier placements
>>96885279>TQthe darkoath chieftain from silver tower probably, dude mogs the rest of his faction so hard it's not even funnyAlso honorable mention to the silver tower knight questor, who similarily is one of the best stormcast sculpts....honestly everything in silver tower was just a cut above the actual faction sculpts, gw locked the fuck in for that game scutlings excepted
I didn’t realize we had a god beast at some point. Wonder if that’ll ever get revisited.
>>96885378Stop relying to yourself like a regard
>>96885549>>96885560>>96885641Super happy you guys like him! I personally agree the metals add to making them feel otherwordly but for example armor on the Oldblood is a bit too much and it ends up looking kinda silly. Still, I love the models a lot, really fun to paint too.>an army shotI don't really have a proper setup(yet) for taking pictures of this much stuff so this is the best I can do right now.
>>96885747What faction is "we"?
>>96885768Huh, I never realized how tiny the starseer palanquin is. I always imagined it being slann sized, which obviously makes no sense if you stop and think for 3 seconds. Good to know, the lil guy looks pretty cool.Conversely aggradons are enormous jeez
>>96885850I think it's because pictures you see of him are almost always up close so it makes it feel like he's a lot larger.
>>96885768...are there lizardwomen?
>>96885335Strange aesthetic design choices mixed with secondaries poisoning the well in terms of how popular they seemed pre release
>>96885901Skinks maybe? If you're really desperate, that is.
>>96885903I agree, GW's stellar design choices were a big factor in HoH selling out on release.
>>96885901Biologically female is a default and male is the mutation, so i guess they kinda all are when they're genderless
>>96885901no, since there are spawning pools
>>96885901all lizardmen are actually lizardwomen, except skinks, they're all males, you can tell by their slutty flashing crests
>>96885954>>96885992So what your saying is, Seraphon are all butch lizardwomen with a harem of twink skinks
>>96886024no, skinks and saurus are different species altogether it's the kroxigors who are the female version of the skinkmale saurus don't exist so the slann can act as proxy for the center of the harem
>>96885279That base is actually too good for the chorf. I like the chorf model but there needs to a limit on how cool your base is compared to the unit it supports. The overall effect is worse if your base is mogging the unit.
>>96885395the curseling is so cool, I hope they eventually add doom knights on disc for tzeentch. would be nice to have real cav options besides tzaangor and some mortals that don't look like naked slaves.
>>96885279I keep forgetting how stupid this guy's glaive is — like my brain actively blots it out when not in view. I'll think "hey, actually the War Despot is kind of cool" and then I look at the pictures and recall that moronic weapon.
which faction would have the best romance?
>>96886112fec
>>96886112Night hauntDon’t question it
>>96886101I don't think it's that different from existing old weapons
>>96886140The one you have there is anything but old, and the old thingonastick it very poorly copies was likely ceremonial to begin with, if not an outright oepra prop.
>pre order went out of stock before i could get it>click Notify When Available button>get notification saying its back in stock>its only in stock in the UKany chance US stock replenishes soon? this dude and the deamonsmith alt build are the two best models in the range
>>96886311Call your LGS and see if they got it in stock
>>96886335LGS hasn't been really reliable with the helsmiths. Owners forgot to put my order in when the pre orders came out so he was already out of stock then, and now they're on a limited schedule and are closed until tuesday. Not that I don't understand the owners have their own lives, it's just rough seeing such a great model i cant get my hands on
>>96886353In that case uhhhhhhhamazon?
>>96886311Anon there’s mountains of unsold HoH at third party stores all over the US and Canada. 2 minutes on google to find a place max.
>>96886363There really aren't, I haven't been able to secure most of what I wanted to build into
>>96886366Download the shop app dummy.
>>96886372WAIT WAIT CANADA??? THE FLOPSPAMMER'S A FUCKING LEAF!? PFFTHAHAHAHAHAHA OF FUCKING COURSE IT'S NOT SELLING IN CANADA YOU FUCKING RETARD NOTHING EVER SELLS IN CANADA AHAHAHAHA OH OH OH GOOD LORD HAHAHA
Im assuming aqshy is the central hub stormcast hover around, right? I mean, ignoring azyr. >>96886372NTA, but was gonna grab it for the ror, but its being scalped on ebay. If I cant get it from my lgs with a loyalty discount, or on ebay and earn points, then I really dont bother.
>>96886389I think Aqshy just has more stormcast because it has the most people.
>>96886372I don't use thirdworlder apps
>>96886372This pajeet tier app doesn't work anyway. It's showing me shit from Canada and then telling me they don't ship outside of canada. Motherfuker why would you include it then
>>96886372stop ban evading
>>96885901Not really. Lizardmen/seraphon reproduce asexually via spawning pools. They don't have sexes. And there's no male-female gender binary among the different breeds. They're like greenskins in that sense.I know there's one example of a skink using she/her pronouns and it did that as an ironic joke about warmbloods being ignorant.
>>96886500Skinks strike me as pretty intelligent and sociable, so as to be able to adapt to the social norms of the warmbloods they're hanging out with
>>96886467most of the stores don't ship at all, let alone internationally. the app isn't like amazon or whatever, it's collecting brick and mortar product listings which are often local pickup only.
practicing glazing on a gobbo, does this look alright? Ignore the gloss finish, didnt satin varnish it yet
>>96886554So you're telling me this whole time the flopper has been posting available boxes from literally the entire world?
Did any of you get it?
>>96886594Yeah looks good to me, very smooth.
>>96886372>>96886386>>96886554>>96886604>available>implyingthe boxes aren't even available at all, let alone throughout the whole world. the first result when you search in the united states is SOLD OUT
>>96886604You expected the trolling to be in any way truthful?
>>96886662I got curious and turns out half these army boxes are sold out too, except they got some non english versions left over so they still show up in the listVery dissapointing, I expected more from our flopposter
>>96886604>>96886703Nobody wants to buy the french box because they'll get french chorfs
>>96886703he will never acknowledge these flaws btw, they've been pointed out to him before. at most he takes a break for a thread or two and hopes we'll forget. but i'm convinced he's automating his system now
You lads figure they'll show off anything on the preview show that's not warhammer quest or nurgle? Maybe an ogre teaser like they did for chorfs?
>>96886756AoS is on the headline separate from WHQ, so yeah. They will. Whether or not it's gonna be more Nurgle stuff, idk.
>>96886756no
>>96886657Glad to hear anon, God bless Venturella's vids
So…Fyreslayers: doomed or not? Being subsumed into a general dwarf faction counts as being doomed
>>96886786He's a good teacher, that's for sure.
>>96886825if that's your definition, they're doomed. dwarf soup already confirmed by multiple reliable leakers>inb4 oh my science
>>96886825If the new dwarves adopt it urgold then I don’t see it that way.
>>96886786Can you post the exact vid you studied by
>>96886839Yeah he's my favorite miniature painting teacher on YT>>96886851Of coursehttps://youtu.be/rEcDL8mLZzo?si=woyPMQBSHjN0cmO2
>>96885335Bro why do you care so much?
>>96886848I liked the aesthetic of lava and dragons ;_;
>>96886372We need to make sure we remind the spamming faggot he is a lead WHENEVER he posts
>>96886865he's autistic, in canada, and possibly a jeet. all factors that make you a bad person alone, let alone in combination
>>96886825I think they're definitely getting souped with more normal-ish dwarfsHOWEVER i also think those normal dwarfs are going to have a lot of draconic motifs a la vulkyn flameseekers, so >>96886871 you might not be out of luck just yet. Pretty curious about nudorfs honestly
Fuck how do I paint liquid red? I saw some dude paint those jars on the lord of skulls for 40K and I kinda wanna replicate it.
>>96886904>elves lose dragons >dwarves get dragons Bit of a fucking shake up, I’ll tell you what. Aos is anything if not innovative.
In which circle do the cool Varanguard hang out?
>>96886921>>elves lose dragonsNot so fast...
>>96886904In any case will the current Fyreslayers Spearhead still be playable if the army is revamped/souped/etc?
>>96886825Fyreslayers appear to be getting at least a couple of new (Fyreslayer) models in the arrangement so I would say not doomed. More like they're getting Gitmobbed.
>>96886998Actually a good question because one of the usual rumourmongers implied the vulkite berserkers aren't making it. Maybe they'll refresh them and they'll revamp it?
>>96887066Being souped is the step before squatting looking at GW systems historically. Fyreslayers won’t be making it into 6th
>>96885335These "army sets" are hate crimes for how expensive they are for so little content.
>>96886965I think 6th is Belakor owned now
>>96887165you mean the 8th
>>96886654So what's up with her spear?
>>96887193It's evil and phallic and made her horny.
>>96886130NTR is not romance
>>96887193It's made from... something and it does... something if you're hit by it... I don't remember exactly what. They should have reminded us during the reveal.
>>968869651st as always
>>96887193Daemon weapon that constantly tests her, if she loses control it will turn her into a chaos spawn. Her ghoul infection made it a lot worse. The UR Phoenix didn't burn it all out of her, Archaon knows and says if she can't remain in control he will put her down
>>96887193Magic weapon
does anyone wanna hear cope?
>>96887324After recent leaks you should go with coping and seething to the ToW thread, while it's still up
>>96887342nta but what happened, I must've missed it
>>96887359
>>96887342If you believe a guy who claimed that 40k has taken a backseat to AoS in Nottingham then you may not have the mental faculties to be out in public.
I just wanted to excuse bad world building for aos...
>>96887403>I just wanted to excuse bad world building for aos...The writers just don't care that much. Or they are incompetent. Or a mix of both to varying degrees.
>>96887392yeah the drunk grog Boole later admitted he overreacted because he's jealous that AoS gets more resources than TOW
>>96887414Maybe but I’ve been thinking about it. I was wondering if the name for some maps are fucked is due to whoever is in charge to name maps is too fucked to get the accurate names for each location. Aos IS a post apocalyptic setting after all, and the realms were all multiracial in literal senses, and afterwards you had chaos occupying the realms, warping civilizations entirely. So trying to find the true etymology of the realms would be fucking impossible because of the generational trauma that’s been inflicted on the realms for so long, and even if you had one figure say something, it’s either been warped and conflicts with another groups, so even if long lasting races like dwarves had an idea of what a piece of land was called, it’s origins are probably warped by others. The only way to compromise was to just give them meaningless names that wouldn’t make any party feel anything, hence we’re stuck with the Latin mumbo jumbo in the last thread like Aquila or therdia.
Anyone has DoK 2ed and 3ed battletomes?Also, 3ed Seraphon battletome?
rumor is we're getting new Sons of Behemat revealed next week
>>96885395>turning gigachad Thomin into a generic chaos warriorYeah no fuck this kit. What made Villitch cool is the fact he was conjoined to an absolute unit
>>96887727All fantasy characters needs to be purged from AoS. We are distinct and separate we don’t need to ape their old shit.
>>96887727Nah vlitch was literally a bitch boy glup shitto. Turning the affliction as a stepping stone for the path to glory is cooler. >>96887732Chaos warriors won’t be getting chaos for a good while.
>>96887587i mean i guess, that's true to some degree and we have alternate names for a bunch of places in different species' languages, while the maps are drawn up like they are by azyrites. We can also be real and say Verdia as a ghyran continent is just a fine name that doesnt need fixing, though. Calling a region of aqysh that's covered in lava flows that look like veins "capilaria" isn't bad worldbuilding compared to calling it "the plains of zigzillarus" (this means plains that look like veins in the orruk-duardin hybrid language spoken in the area 10000 years ago)
>>96886500>and it did that as an ironic joke about warmbloods being ignorant.no she didn't, she just picked up the concept of gender because she interacted with warmbloods enough to decide to use it herself
>>96887392I fucking hate that attention seeking freak. That he's become an oracle when he doesn't really know much about aos and so filters all his leaks through that, drives me nuts. People take his word as gospel but it's impossible to tell how much he's speculating/being vague because he doesn't know details, and how much his own lack of knowledge is making what he does know sound completely different than it is
>>96887811He stated that 40k is now being allocated less resources than AoS. He told you right there that this is all just a joke. You're falling for the bait in a different way.
>>96887656Try these links.pdfcoffee dot com slash daughters-of-khaine-2021-battletome-pdf-free dot htmlfiles<dot>catbox<dot>moe slash zpffb4<dot>pdf - seraphon 3e
So, I am looking for Daughters of Khaine tomes, from 1ed, 2ed to 3ed. We should really create a Mega.
>>96887824I wouldn't be shocked if that was because 40k is easier to design for so it costs them less money.They must be able to design power armor in thier sleep at this point.
>>96887844If you even slightly entertain that a publicly traded company would backseat their main money maker you are insane or ill informed. It's literally against the law for them to do that, they are legally obligated to maximize shareholder returns.
>>96887677If you expect Gargants women to be giant amazons with hip-breaking butts, you'll be very, very disappointed.
>>96887835My kind thank you anon.Still looking for 1ed and 2ed DoK tomes.
>>96887855Who said backseat? I just said that if 40k is cheaper than AoS to design for then it would look like 40k is being allocated less resources.
>>96887677We're halfway through the edition's expected lifecycle and half the armies are still waiting for their battletomes. GW ought to pick up the pace of new releases in general. It always sucks when an army gets its new book and then it only stays legal for four months before a new edition is rolled out.
>>96887855to be fair, all you need to do is get a consulting firm to make a slideshow saying that you're getting diminishing returns on your current golden goose, that your second biggest product is poised for huge growth with a push, and voila. fiduciary duties fulfilled.
>>96887899Well supposedly 2026 will mostly be an Aos year. So speed up we shall. I’m just hoping gw doesn’t completely rewrite the game in 5th and adds to the current system. Maybe redo control points instead and a complete redo of place holder abilities. Those two things would be a start, and adding customization.
>>96887836Link to Dok 1 edition, I think.mega dot nz slash file slash Ss0yDSDC#NSRhGs1XXOBlp4xuJH-a0NH2mYf0O01KoyfbdR0cG8EAnd the 3rd edition, I think, you'll find it right above you.
>>96887874Here you'll find the first edition, I think.mega dot nz slash file slash Ss0yDSDC#NSRhGs1XXOBlp4xuJH-a0NH2mYf0O01KoyfbdR0cG8E
Moo.
>>96887935>>96887949Thanks, kind anon.
>>96887935>>96887949If that link isn't for DoK 1st Edition, this one definitely is:kupdf dot net slash download slash warhammer-age-of-sigmar-battletome-daughters-of-khaine_5af755f4e2b6f5d50e72c438_pdfAs for the 2nd Edition, if anyone here has it, please upload a link.
>>96887976Is 2ed from 2021?Here >>96887835
>>96885279Has Drachenfels made an appearance in AoS yet?
>>96887747>champion of an entire Chaos subfaction>glup shitto
>>96888019Wait, isn't the 2021 DOK the 3rd edition?
>>96888083Honestly, I do not know. Hopefully some other anons jump in.
>>96888080>champion of an entire Chaos subfactionThe dude whose entire story is laid out in a white dwarf? Yeah.
>>96888083>>96888095If it has the snake-elf on the cover, it's the 2nd edition; if it has Morathi on the cover, it's the 3rd edition.
why is there no good guide on painting the skullcrushers for the mortals?
>>96887824If you're saying he's trolling and has no information that's obviously not true, he's been direct about things that've already come to be true and it's fairly undeniable he does have insider info. He's just an idiot
>>96888303as in, the human riders? it'd be the same as any other paint guy for a khorne armored guy, just use one for them
>>96888083I don't think it says anywhere in the book what edition it is but assuming the file I downloaded was correctly labled, 3E is 2022
>>96886965From the sound of it the 2nd circle is the one that goes out of its way to give people the worst time possible, and I think that's a fine quality for a band of bad guys.
Have you considered that it's pretty fucked up that StD don't have a prayer lore?
>>96888769Look, it took them an entire fucking edition for maggotkin to get a proper prayer lore. We're working an edition at a time. Also I have no fucking clue what they're doing with the chaos chariot.
>>96888780chaos warshrine*
>>96886756I have the feeling that the nurgle shield and/or the gut-plate will be in one or many Warhammer Quest miniatures
does anyone have the battle tome for khorne in 4th edition?
>>96888769The idolator lord shit was the coolest flavor idea they had for slaves and it's so sad they've lost it. charismatic cult leader is an archetype slaves should let you lean into>>96888784Warshrine has been gone since the 4e tome dropped, it doesn't even work as a legends unit because its warscroll prayer uses keywords nothing gets anymore.
are we or TOW getting the Chaos Mammoth?
>>96889010TOW is getting the Mammoth for their Chaos army
>>96889060aw damn
>>96889061No idea why you expect us to get anything. TOW is their baby now.
>>96889073Eeeh, wrong.And we are getting Warhammer Quest, Nurgle, CoS, Fyreslayers, Ogors and OBR. Thats a lot and much more than what TOW is getting.
>>96889091>Thats a lot and much more than what TOW is getting.
>>96889091A model for each faction is nothing to celebrate about.
>>96887811I mean if you actually look at previous threads even the people sharing his posts in the first place are fairly critical about it. I feel like ironically the people seething about the rumourposts take them a lot more seriously than those discussing them.>>96887844>mr ceo we the board are wondering why this quarter you focused on product b instead of product a, when a is the one that makes more money?>well, we feel that product b has a lot of untapped potential, by prioritizing it we hope to attract a lot of new customers, and thus actually make more money in the long term than if we had focused on product b>ok makes senseI'm sure a company the size of gw is aware of the concept of diminished returns anon. If they only focused on the best selling product they would've scrapped tow, aos, kill team, all other sidegames, and all 40k factions that aren't marines to focus on bringing out more marines.>>96887910Isnt 2026 new edition year for 40kek?
>>96889149>Isnt 2026 new edition year for 40kek?Yes. 2026 is the year of a new edition and more focus on 40k while AoS gets a backseat. 2027 is AoS.
>>96889152And what about The Old World, better known as "it's not Warhammer Fantasy even though it claims to be"?
>>96889191They'll get something same as we will. It's just that the focus will be on 40k like always during a new edition. Our new edition should be 2027.
>>96889152Some people treat leakers like Messianic seers. Even when they say obviously hilarious shit like the 40k taking a backseat. That was an IQ test that many failed.
>>96889200I mean AoS will get new stuff. Like the Ogor refresh and a small update to Maggotkin and probably a new narrative ending our edition but that's that. 2026 is not our year though.
>>96889152This 3 year cycle is insane man. Even just one extra year would give a lot of breathing room.>>96889191More china
First time buying a Spearhead box and do you not get the units data cards in the box along with the models? You need to buy those seperately? I'm somehow incredulous over this, I can't imagine its that more profitable to split the paper.
https://8th.whfb.app/the-lores-of-magic/the-dreaded-thirteenth-spellFun Fact: grey seers and verminlords can turn anyone into their rat fursona using a mass furrification spell.
>>96889278Nah you just get the models and instructions afaik. The spearhead rules and warcsrolls are all online and free (for now) on gw's website though
>>96889278Spearhead rules are free to download herehttps://www.warhammer-community.com/en-gb/downloads/warhammer-age-of-sigmar/
>>96888769Maggotkin didn't have a prayer lore at first despite actually having a priest. 4e is a fucking mess
>Love the models>Hate the loreFor me it’s Bonereapers. I don’t want to play as Nagash’s puppets
>>96889349take the>I don't play any of these games, I just paint cool modelspill.
>>96889349Me with stormcast except I don't even like their models all that much either but their playstyle is really fun to me
Is the Skaven Christmas Box worth getting combined with the Spearhead and Skaventide box?
>>96889457yes
>>96889299>>96889304Well damn, I'd say I was surprised at the nickle and diming behavior, but I'm not.The free download is nice and readable though, so one trip to the local printer fixes everything.
>>96889483What else would you need with those three things? Trying to get a good army with as few boxes as possible.
>>96889514That's like 2700 points all together, more then enough for an army anon
>>96889538S'why I asked, ty. Getting the christmas box is gonna be hard enough so it's nice to know if I nab one I only need two other easy to find discounted boxes to make a good force.
>>96889280Happened to a stormcast during the realmgate wars, he stayed that way until someone killed him and his soul could get reforged back into a normal body
>>96889349They aren't puppets. They are Nagash's übermensch.
>>96889349The lore is not that bad, and the models feel very good to paint. It's hard to describe, no other range has the crunchy texture OBR have.
Is it true that Arkham knows Nagash doesn't really want to win and that's why he's secretly sabotaging him?
>>96889616>nagash doesn't really want to winWhat?
>>96889681I heard somewhere that Arkham once went into Nagash's mind and deep inside discovered that Nagash doesn't want to win because if he does, he'll feel alone.
>>96886372How do you feel about the Blue Jays choking the world series again, flopleaf?
>>96889817>Now that the dust has settled, why did the Blue Jays flop?
>>96887952Conquer it for Cow-os.
>>96889198>It's just that the focus will be on 40k like always during a new editionThat's the opposite of how it works, actually. 40K will have very limited releases next year outside the new starter box and related faction releases, as is normal for a new edition year. It's the same for AoS, new edition years tend to have less releases for the "focus" system giving other systems a chance to catch up.
>>96889817Can't help but admire the insane amount if malice behind this gif
>>96889704I think you've heard it wrong
Oh by the way, apparently the christmas pamphlets came in yesterday. Interestingly it has both darkwater and the new bloodbowl as coming soon, while the latter went up for preorder as of today. So we might get the darkwater preoder pretty quick, maybe in two weeks they'll announce it
>>96889971>the christmas pamphlets came in yesterdayThanks for reminding me how much I hate christmasfags, 2nd day into November and already this bsBut at least early Darkwater preorders would be nice, hopefully they do show some Nurgle models in the coming days
>>96890053I think we'll probably see the water lady this monday or tuesday, but nothing else til the actual preview show.Also since aos and whq are listed separately I'm hoping we'll also see some non nurgle stuff, like maybe the rumoured gargant matriarch or whatever
>>96889616>>96889704I can't imagine what you're referencing but there is this discussion in Soul Wars, which also suggests Arkhan and the other Mortarchs undermine Nagash with their quarrels by his design - that the chaos serves his ends. Both sentiments come from Arkhan, who cannot read Nagash's mind. That said the same book also reveals Nagash has Alzheimer's and even the Mortarchs were created not totally aware of their history, but of course Black Library isn't canon and GW threw out Reynolds interpretation of the Mortarchs in the core book that accompanied the launch box Soul Wars accompanied so yknow
>>96890438The nagash/sigmar bromance canonically holds chaos at bay, good to know
She looks nice. Her arms and mitts are impressive, you can tell she's got the physique of a seasoned cuneiform carver.
>>96890565Impregnate
>>96890565do you get multiple spare heroes from the taurus kit? or do they all use the same legs or something?
>>96890565Blizzardslop
>>96890586Urak Taar and the generic daemonsmith are built using different pieces so if you like you could assemble both and use one as a foot hero.
>>96890612Cool, there's another generic male head too isn't it?
Is dominion set in ghurr? Looking for some books to explore the realm.
>>96890641Yeah. Although an issue with both is that they're angled so they're looking down from howdah, so a bit of work on the basing might be required to make the pose less awkward. Not sure if leftover bits from the regular ashen elder/daemonsmith kit might be useful.
>>96889585Give me some recipes if you feel like anon. I'm buying the older spearhead and painting them for the first time.
>>96890666You could just put em on a cork ig.
>>96890666>Yeah. Although an issue with both is that they're angled so they're looking down from howdahnot really a problem if you give them a tactical rock, or even just some kind of orb or book or flame or artifact to look at in front of them
>>96889971I remember last year the deathwatch combat patrol was shown as available despite being out of stock for months
Less than a week away. What, if anything, are you hoping to see?
>>96890913Full Darkwater instead of just a few teases
>>96890913New roadmap. And like 2-3 battletome covers to go along with it.
>>96890565Lol
>>96890913Warcry
>>96889817Canucks cannot stop losing
I think the fact that Idoneth literally live Underwater and not in it is the funniest thing in AoS
>>96890913Anything Death really
>>96890913>hopingnew units and warcry warbands for the factions I play>expectinga lot of shit I dont' care about, warhammer quest nurgle stuff and maybe new fyreslayers and ogre units>fearingTOW gets cool units like Mammoths and shit that can't be used to proxy stuff in AoS. The new darkoath is cool but it would suck dick if they added a bunch of cool monsters and things that have no equivalent in AoS.

>>96890913Some serious roadmap for 2026. And I mean serious and not "We'll have BTs and SHs for all Grand Alliances!"
I just wanna see what the next narrative event for aos will.
>>96891115Do they hatefuck on the dinosaur?
>>96891172Not even a peck on the cheek, I'm sad to say. There's no fucking, smooching, or pining in the whole book.
>>96890913A peek at ogres or CoS
>>96891197>CoSLet there be aelves.
>>96891115is the spear sassy?
>>96890913Anything Soulblight really.

>>96891344>>Spearhead wave 3Are we due for a third book? Sand & Bone feels like it just came out.
>>96891115It's not working for me...

>>96891115>Loregore the Cruel>Kasgor SturngarYo these guys are from ye olde Everchosen tome.
>>96890438Soul Wars was the last and only good AoS book.RIP Josh Reynolds, too good for faggot BL
>>96891374Feels way too soon yeah, though since it's so popular gw wants to maybe introduce some sidegrades to keep it fresh or something. It's been speculated that recent cos vs eshin rumours are supposed to be a spearhead starter box of sorts. Probably a way's away though, I'd be very surprised to see it get revealed next week
>>96891374They can't release a new book until the last one has been scanned. It wouldn't be fair to me.
>>96891115The prose is hurting me.
>>96891419>smash giant's head in>thumbs up from big guysimple as
>>96891520Propa orky
>>96890913I hope the TOW Mammoth is revealed. I don’t know what I am going to proxy it as but I am incredible hyped for it.
I didn't realize this year was the 50th.https://www.warhammer-community.com/en-gb/articles/dtvkowlq/sunday-preview-fight-in-dead-silence-and-dont-wake-the-necrons/
>>96891644Kill team week
>>96891621For what faction? Probably proxy as an allied gargant is your best bet
>>96891644Yeah remember the first decade of GW was mostly RPG licensed like D&D, self-made board games like Valley of the Four Winds or Warlocks and Fighting Fantasy books.Warhammer only started when Bryan Ansell started taking more control of the company
>>96891668Probably going to use it as an allied gargant as you said. But I am not 100% set on that yet.
>>96891644>chariot racing rules for Warhammer Age of SigmarMight be fun.
Anyone has Broken Realms Morathi to share?
>>96891644>1975 was half a century agoGood lord
>>96891644>>96891760And they put in aerial warfare rules last month. Which reminds me, since all the way back in the Gallet days I've been thinking that I'd like to see a ruleset for tunnel fighting in AoS. Something equivalent to 40k's boarding actions. It'd require more terrain than most AoS tables use, but I think it could be fun.
>>96892248By the way, anyone got those rules?
>>96892248I swear they've done aerial combat rules for AoS at least six times at this point. At least chariot racing is new.
I know it's a long shot but would it be possible to play seraphon skink focused?A guy I know is selling picrel, half of it already built, for a pretty good price and I'm toying with the idea of building a skink army around it. I'm not necessarily looking for something competitive (seraphon seem to kinda suck in general), just something that won't get me consistently btfo by round 2. My aos experience is limited to playing some spearhead games with a couple of my friends' armies.
>>96892316The most recent 2-3 WD issues haven't been scanned afaik.
>>96892372I think the skink cav is good rn but beyond that it’s meh. I’m kinda hoping for the same thing desu.
>>96892372Holy fuck what a kino box, wish I was around when it was available
>>96892352>>96892380Well then, do you have any iteration of them?
>>96892382Hunters of huanchi are great too, in moderation. Or at least they were last I checked which was admittedly a while ago.>>96892383Spearhead is nice and all, but damn start collecting was the shit. Especially the normal seraphon one was insane value. Hell I'm pretty sure it's cheaper than what the carnosaur alone goes for now, and you got like 20 saurus warriors + knights on top of that.
>>96892372it can do okay, skink units in general are made of glass, but they're cheap and efficient. ripperdactyl riders and raptadon chargers are 2 of the armies best damage dealers per point, and the skink spellcasters are great. regular skinks on foot cant do a ton, but they're cheapthe army WILL lose models fast, so i recommend fielding a regular slann for his recursion mechanic if you can get one.
HELPSo, anyone has Broken Realms Morathi to share? I have been looking for it for a week and nothing.Also, does anyone have that Blacktalon episode where DoK appear?
>>96891791>>96892467Stop being annoying.
>>96892372I wish they would refresh the skink models, it's such a sore point being the only part of the army that still looks old and ugly. The chameleons look nice but I don't really want to have to proxy them for all skinks.
>>96892511Anon, I no longer know where to look.
>>96892518newer skinks don't look better than old skinksthe only truly worthwhile things they could do for a new kit would be upgrade the javelins to atlatls and replace the blowpipes with bowsotherwise an updated skinks kit is going to look exactly the same with worse faces, metal shields instead of scaled shields, and a higher price per model
>>96892518>still looks old eh, not as much as you would think. they are moderately posable and dont suffer from the same tin soldier rank and flank poses a lot of stuff from that era does, and the detail is surprisingly sharp for their time>looks uglynot at alldont get me wrong, i wouldnt turn down a refresh, the hunters of huanchi set or raptadon riders look great, but the old skinks dont look bad or out of place next to them, so i wouldnt go as far as to tell anyone not to buy them and wait an indefinite amount of time for their refresh
>>96892544the weird nose definition is something fabricated by the eavy metal team, they dont really look like that in person if you dont paint that deep shadow on the underside of the snoot
>>96891741What faction you suing it for?
>>96892581I still don't think they look particularly better than the old kitif this is the degree of change, and I don't get said atlatls and bows, then I'm going to consider an updated kit for skinks a waste
>>96891668>proxyIf GW makes a mammoth unit for TOW, they should also add them as part of SoB like Skyrim giants, that would be cool.
>>96892569>>96892544you are entitled to your opinions but I really dislike most of the generic skink models. If they could just make them look like the the starpriest or starseer that would fix them.
>>96892467Found it.
So are all of you guys rich? How do you afford this game? It’s absurd, 50 bucks for 12 squigs!
>>96892518Honestly for being the second oldest kit in all of aos they're surprisingly alright. The smaller the kit the easier they age imo. They're not perfect but I feel like they can hold out an edition longer.>>96892544An atlatl dual build would be nice. The current's kit biggest problems are their weapons imo. The clubs especially look comically small even compared to their tiny bodies. They look like they're going to battle with hair brushes. As for a redesign, they shouldn't change much. The underworlds skinks were a slight but tasteful upgrade. My favourite take on them was some random third party blood bowl team, let me see if I can find it.
>>96892709>If they could just make them look like the the starpriest or starseer that would fix themthose 2 already share their same design cues
>>96892737Dunno about other anons but I'm a single guy in my 30s with a pretty decent job, Buying a kit or two and/or some supplies every once in a while is really not that much money.
>>96892743>The clubs especially look comically small even compared to their tiny bodiesthat's because the kit was never actually designed with the idea of them wielding that club as their main armamentthe kit was intended to be either javelin+shield or blowpipe+sidearmmake the sidearm too big and it overshadows the blowpipe, which is their actual main armament the hand weapon and shield configuration os essentially a conversion
>>96892644It would mostly be to bring their tech in line with the new stuff, swapping out the skin shields for star metal and giving them a bit more armorI will say the jewelry on like the new kroxigors and aggradon lancers is incredible, so if they could get some of that, it would be worth it
>>96892737It's not that bad for a collecting hobby and there are ways to make it even cheaper
>>96892737>>96892754I really like how the priest models look so impassive and calm. For being primarily the craftsmen and general handlers of lizard society, the generic Skinks always look so mean and feral.
>>96892737I've been playing since I was a high schooler, you typically don't wanna pay full price. At the absolute very least you should try to get a discount from local stores, ideally you buy stuff secondhand. Honestly I don't think it's that outrageous of a hobby pricewise (not to defend gw's pricing fuck em). I mean yeah compared to your standard gaming/watching tv of most people it is, but in my friend group my "niche hobby" is the cheap one. One of my buddies is into airsoft and pays like a couple grant on the regular for new guns or gizmos. Another friend breeds koi fish and similarily easily spends thousands a year. As long as you're not low iq with 0 impulse control buying every fomo box this hobby has a pretty good dollar/hour value. I mean my girlfriend took in a stray cat a few months ago and it cost more to get in order than I have spent on warhammer in the past two years lol.>>96892743I found the skinks, they're on the whole not as good as I remember lol. But the guy in picrel still is what I would like to see. I especially like the tall crest, I feel like the official ones have them a bit too sleek and close to line of the head if that makes sense
>>96892737I dont eat out, I also dont really need to own a car so there is that. Also this game is arguably cheaper than 40k.
>>96892846maybe you saw the fancy schemes
>>96892737https://www.hachettecollections.com/en-us/warhammer-age-of-sigmar-stormbringer/warhammer-age-of-sigmar-stormbringer-issue-57/
>>96892737Mostly, I lurk on second hand sites to buy whatever is being sold for cheap. I can count on my one hand how many mini sets I bought in lgs. Paints are a different topic
>>96892863Damn, some of these are REALLY good. Saved for future reference
>>96892817Huh I never knew that, makes a lot more sense. Thanks for teaching me, you learn something new every day. I guess they're more like knife-clubs then, kind of like how namarti reavers have an alt build with little knives.>>96892863I remember that post, pretty insane work
really wish I could use some stormcast bodies as gore accessories.
>>96892958you can
>>96893031Well you can only use armor bits, because of the whole explodes into lightning on death thing
>>96893031yeah kinda what >>96893046 said. I was hoping to turn them into night lord material with blood oozing out of their arm sockets.
>>96893069Technically you can remove their limbs and make them shit blood while they're technically still alive
>>96893069I mean stormies can get permakilled in some cases, like belakors bullshit, and nighthaunt locks and shit. In those cases I assume the stormcast body itself would be left behind. Kind of like the kruleboy shaman having a severed LoC hand on a staff. What army were you planning for ?
>>96893046if you kill them hard enough, or during bad weather, you can kill them for good
>>96893125They still blow up, the soul just doens't return to Azyr
>>96893094blades of khorne
>>96893137>>96893138Just give your warband a cursed daemon sword or whatever that traps their bodies. I mean it's khorne, sounds like the type of shit he'd allow you to break the fabric of reality a little bit for
>>96893137you just aren't killing them good enough
>>96893077correct, the stormcast can be a bloody nugget on the ground as long as it's technically still alive, best way to portray that is keeping the eyesockets glowing
>>96893094No, they return to the skies but not Azyr. Har kuron and Skaventide features captive Stormcast, though, so if they could be dismembered but otherwise kept alive I suppose decoration is fair game
>>96892958>anon can't collect gory trophies from enemies who don't leave anyMEDIOCRE
>>96893180>>96893218>Have to "kill" your enemy justtt right to get a cool trophy out of itI'm beginning to see why gitmob hate stormies
>>96893251everyone hates stormies, they're no fun like that
Reminder that Stormcast have ritualistic suicide knives on them in case they got trapped, like spies with cyanide pills, so getting those trophies is even harder
>>96893251There's a funny bit about it in the Harrowdeep novella. The Stormcast ask the Kruleboyz why they hate them so much, and the reply basically goes "BECAUSE YOU CAN'T EVEN DIE RIGHT!"
>>96893305He meant because Harrowdeep is an afterlife with them eternally respawning
If not for all the cleanup of mold lines, I really feel like I could keep painting dryads forever. It somehow never gets boring to take a brush to them.
>>96893548They're pretty comfy to paint because you just drybrush the wood and that's 90% of work done, all that's left is picking out some detail. Quick dopamine.
>>96893556>>96893548I painted some sylvaneth today and it is so nice I almost wish I starter them instead of KB. Once they have more than 2 heroes that I like, I'm going in
>>96890670I actually have the old spearhead and I think it is a very fun build, but I havent finished painting it yet. The scheme I chose for it was a relatively dark bony shade, grey/nmm armor coupled with turquoise cloth (as in tonality. I actually shade it pretty close to a dark green other than in the edges) and blue effects.I kinda want to get the new OBR spearhead because those two together coupled with Nagash make a pretty decent army.
>>96893270Can't they just take pieces of armor out of the cuck-casters?>>96893305>"BECAUSE YOU CAN'T EVEN DIE RIGHT!"based. Imagine killing a dude 20 times and everytime he returns he is more retarded and you can't even take a memento out of him.
>>96893548>>96893556I did mine in 3 different schemes and my headcanon is that they come from different trees. Probably should've did one more with a reddish brown wood now that I think of it.
>>96893305>Harrowdeepa bit hypocritical considering the whole respawn gimmick that everyone in underworlds has
>>96893548It's the opposite of lumineth. Painting that box art cream, baby blue and white scheme with tons of filigree is so stressful. I still love it how it looks, but it certainly doesnt help my backlog.
>>96893663I think part of their greatness is that they will look good in basically anything.
>>96892716Which one? I have them
>>96892737Earn over 6 figures, am pretty good with my money so can Warhammer and travel every year. I don't buy fomo, my pile of shame is not totally painted. Everything I own is built, base coated and has at least one colour.>>96892467As long as you're a good boy for Morathihttps://gofile.io/d/vpUZRL
>>96892848>Also this game is arguably cheaper than 40k.Its a lot cheaper than 40k, in my experience. But I never went down on the math.
>>96893668Not every location and warband. (but I admit that there are lots of locations-seassons are like that)>>96892737As long as you don't try to get everything most of times it is affordable. (at least it is better than other collectible hobbies)
>>96893780Isn't it just shadespire?
>>96893810with the necroquake the prison of shadespire cracked in places, connecting to other places, and with that its inhabitants and curse leaked elsewhere
>>96893733>But I never went down on the mathThe biggest difference is points, everything in 40K cost like half as many points as it would in AoS, or even less. That's twice as much shit you have to buy off the bat, and 40K kits tend to be slightly more expensive than AoS, just to add salt to the wound.
>>96893810Every UW location is an underworld connected to shadespire which is why the various warbands all appear in them The latest edition is different though iirc
>>96893882That's the biggest difference. A single unit is about the same dollar value. But the 40k ones are 100 points for an elite unit vs 250 for an AoS one.Or look at god type models, a titan is the same price as Morathi/Archaon/Nagash but is less than half the points
>>96892737I make decent money, spend irresponsibly, but also AOS is much cheaper than anything else GW. People sell whole armies for like 200ish bucks sometimes. Never buy direct from GW, just do secondhand or Stormbringer, if you're desperate at least do FLGS or ebay. I'm currently trying to avoid picking up BoK since I really don't need another god damn army. If there was like a miniswap or buy and sell to other anons I'd love to do it desu.>>96893882Also this, AOS has a lower model count overall. Every faction can generally herohammer or has some big fuckoff monster or some hefty elites that can take up like 1/4th of your list. (In Death you can buy Nagash and that's like 800 points in every death faction right off the bat. Same goes for Kragnos in destruction)
I kinda like the idea of the knuckle dusters that blood warriors have but they could have been executed better. Something like the deathbringers shield is a better concept, even if its an entirely different thing altogether. Makes me wonder if khornes chosen will have something like that in the future.
Why doesn't she simply carry an aqua ghyranis barrel with a hose attached so she can douse dudes with healing waters? Isn't she supposed to be a doctor?
>>96894335because that costs a lot and causes cancer
>>96894345>and causes cancerThat's an urban myth. Aqua Ghyranis is good for you and has zero negative side effects. Buy yours today from your local Verdian vendor. Use the referral code "Ghyra rules, Aqsha drools" and get a special 10% discount.
>>96893715NTA but I wonder whether DoK will end up souped with Malerion faction. DoK are very unpopular faction. Not FS level but close and they have not gotten a proper wave with new units and monsters for a very long time.
>>96892372Probably pretty well. You can spam the board with cheap shit to get the scouting force BT, and the new skink rider dudes trade pretty well and are cheap as shit
>>96890565Which kit is this one from? I dig it
>>96894748Infernal Taurus
>>96894748the one with the big bull>>96894529they've gotten kinda popular recently, they have a better playstyle than for the past 2 editions imo.
>>96894529Potentially. Depends on what theu decide to do lore wise. I could see it going like Orcs, one soup book, but 2 separate factions inside
>>96894774>>96894775Do you get spare riders with that kit?
>get into gitz recently >still have some old fanatics on rounds so I don't need to rebase them >they changed the base to 32 mm Motherfucker
>>96891419I miss these mockups they did to showcase paint schemes in 1e battletomes.
>>96894874Get base embiggeners
>>96894799you get urak taar and one spare generic rider. the spare rider has two sets of arms (including two different weapons) and both a male and female head
>>96895009Damn so a free ass generic hero? Nice.
