>TQI think the only one I wouldnt want is some slaves to darkness shit. ghoulking on the throne is one though.
>>97102984Either the half king or kettek
>TQWould be cool to have an alt-Shaman, but it's fucked bu that he and alt-Killaboss come without their grots included
>>97102982i havent seen anything saying that it was an mmo, just an rpg. the footage i saw it just looked like a single player soulslike style rpg. maybe it had some multiplayer online connectivity like a souls game planned, but thats not an mmo
>>97103003Didn Half King even offcialy releas? I only saw him leak without any announcments from GW
>>97103005The article itself said it was a rpg mmo (something weird like where winds meet)
Hello friends and lovers. Anyone got the fluff & lore sections of the newest 4th ed Kharadron Overlords in a pdf?Or failing that, the Broken Realms books?
I miss when we had a full mega archive with all the books. It was cool.
>>97103026WFBfags (now TOWfags) kept reporting it unfortunately.
>>97103039Actually it was the Polish Janny and possibly the government of Poland was involved too
>I have a feeling developers will be climbing over eachother to get that licenseWarhammer fantasy battle is deadits the old world, and that setting is genuinely more convoluted than aos was up until 3e. Also owlcat can suck a fat fucking bag of digs, i'd take a game made by the fucking expeditions devs, or, and may allah forgive me for saying this, a game made by divinity original sin before owl cat fucking touches another warhammer title. Rouge trader was such a fucking disappointment even compared to the two pathfinder games.
>>97103070Literally nobody outside of you views TOW as its own thing separate from WHFB. TOW is Warhammer Fantasy for almost everyone. This distinction isn’t made by almost anyone.
>>97103082I saw people argue that "End Times" and "Warhammer Fantasy" were two different IPs here. Good luck with your argument
>>97103082>Literally nobody outside of you views TOW as its own thing separate from WHFB.Yeah and this is gonna be something GW and the specalist team is going to rectify hard with the new Norsca rehaul for tow. >TOW is Warhammer Fantasy for almost everyone.you mean for secondaries >this distinction isn’t made by almost anyone.but it is for gw.
>>97103070Nigger theyre literally one of the only chances aos has in the next decade of having a good video game tied to the ip. Larian is not touching warhammer. Expeditions devs are MIA iirc.
>>97103013There's painted models and ebay listings for the fucker so he MUST have at some point been released, probably internally or in a limited event
>>97103101>Nigger theyre literally one of the only chances aos has in the next decade of having a good video game tied to the ip.owlcat hasnt made a good game since MAYBE wotr and it took them 4 years to make it playable. rouge trader is still a work in progress thats not done.
>>97102984who is this model? is neat. I prefer slightly exaggerated but not overblown stuff like this.
>>97103092Anon we know that the entirety of warriors of chaos are getting a massive refresh why are you trying to spread bs
You know what's not appreciated enough? Duality between Gordrakk and Gobsprakk isn't actually Gork vs Mork.Gordrakk believes in Gorkamorka as a whole and his goals are alligned with bringing him back for all orrukind.Gobsprakk porpagates false gods for his own personal gain.
>>97103126>Anon we know that the entirety of warriors of chaos are getting a massive refreshexactly.
>>97102975Ok, you got me there lmao
>>97103122Steel Rook, an Arch-Knight variant. He was event only some time ago, but GW announced they'll be selling him at their stores around Christmas
>>97103136And the leakers stated they are basically just updated old models…what’s your end game with the half truths?
>>97103133I can't think of Destruction theology without getting angry at inconsistencies and confusion, so I decided to ignore it altogether
What’s Valraks track record outside of 40k? I really want to dismiss his statements about the poor sales of AoS in 2025 tell me he’s full of shit.
>>97102998Throne King is kino, realy glad i got him
>>97103147updating old models...to make them distinct from aos models. Which are chaos warriors through and through.If the rumors that there was a delayed norsca overhaul to be true...well I would expect chosen at least to look like frydall at best. and the new chaos lord to look like the aspiring champion. Remember, Chaos in tow is, as described by gw, chaos ascendant. Not chaos triumphant.
>>97103154Wait until you realise Allariel is part of gargant theology due to her saving Behemat that one time and Darkwater stated she has Ghur aspects, so you have to now count Sylvaneth beleiefs into destruction
>>97103156valrak doesnt even have good track records in 40k, still waiting on that grey knight kill team and juggernuants for world eaters btw.
>>97103167He literally posted old warriors of chaos as an example thobeit. The fully plated old school helmet horned warriors.
>>97103154Greenskins are better at that. They don't experience cognitive dissonance the same as humans do. They can totally believe that Gork is stronger than Mork while also believing just as deeply that Mork is stronger than Gork. They don't feel a need to reconcile the contradiction in their head. This demonstrates the superiority of the greenskin mind. Human brains are weaker because for the most part they can only hold one uncontradicted belief at a time.
>>97103182anon...anon I don't know to tell your poor naive self. he was posting archetypes. Not expecations of their aesthetics
>>97103177>you have to now count Sylvaneth beleiefs into destructionI think something of the sort in one of the Hamilcar stories. A deified dryad or something instilled Ghurish attributes in her adherents.
>>97103195Are you the guy who made up the Norsca claim? I’ve not seen it outside /aosg/
>>97103143nice, thanks. could be a cool amethyst wizard/preist of morr/champion for a black gaurd of morr unit (greatsword alt)
make a new destruction
>>97103234Really? You’ve never seen people talk about how they’re making a distinction between the old world and Aos chaos? I’ve seen discussed on other warhammer forums.
>>97103245Chaos ogors. They're still too retarded to actually be in Chaos
>>97103245Silent People. Boom, done.
>>97103258Kek why do you go back and forth like a slimy politician. Answer my question instead of asking your own.
>>97103267Honestly seeing ogres adapt to the different realms would be kino, maneater style.
>>97103276>Answer my question I mean I thought i did. It’s something that I’ve seen discussed in other circles and has been expressed here as well. It’s only natural, they do it with Hh and 40k too.
>>97103143GW somehow making a based move in re-releasing a heavily scalped model.
>>97103297No. You made a broad statement. I specifically asked about Norsca. You’re such an insufferable slimeball. All sophists need to be put to death.
>>97103315Now you’re starting to argue like a slimy politician too.
Does anyone have the Ruination Vandus picture?
What’s on your table lads? Trying to keep my motivating going
>>97103026Are you looking for anything? I've got a bunch of aos1 and some 4e stuff
>>97103154I prefer the original where the spider-god was a monster who drained energy from biting Gorkamorka
>>97103432Nothing right now, I wanted to take a small hobby break but I'm already feeling the itch after a week. I might start up again tomorrow.
>>97103440no thanks, I just liked browsing and comparing
>>97103432I am losing my mind waiting for my Darkoath proxies to ship. I have too much anticipation.
>>97103530I also ordered these guys, gonna combine them with the darkoath I have now though
Does Darkwater not actually have instructions for activating units? Every playthough has just been going through whatever group is closest and activating as many as the card presents but that seems wrong?
>>97103604There's a reason why even the most toxic positive shill channels at best said " it's ok " about the actual game.
>>97103613Yeah... I checked and it's >Each group activates in the enemy turn >Nearest group activates first >Perform as many activations per group as their card states So there's no instruction for enemies beyond their group cap and no instructions on how to activate those under>Kelpies go first because they're closest >3 Kelpies activate Which three? lol whatever
>>97103660Isn't Darkwater a SGS release? I genuinely would not be surprised if it was this terrible overall as a way to damage the AoS ip their favorite child ToW is in direct competition with.
>>97103676Schizo? No, I would presume Warcry was delayed not just because of the lead designers departure earlier in the year but because the team were working on Darkwater and Spearhead. GW doesn't operate like that, we know as much from what's been shared about MESBG and FW.
>>97103432>>97103461I lied. Setting up my stuff now. Vidya was telling me to not play.
>>97103004He's dirt cheap on ebay
The deed is done.
>>97103267I can't think of a worse concept
>>97103729You did it? You really gooned to stormcast women and their forged abs? You fuckin' LEGEND
>>97103156Who cares? Worst case scenario there's slightly less releases, they're too deep in to just drop the whole game. There's literally nothing you can do about it either way unless you plan on buying hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of shit
>>97103746I meant to post my image but it fucked up :(
>>97103101Valrak is now claiming that CA is making an AoS game
>>97103844>inb4 the TW 40k rumors were actually DOW 4 rumors miscontrued
>>97103406the what?
>>97103844That fat retard says wrong shit constantly
>>97103844I feel like an AoS game would be an easy pick for CA considering how much shit they can recycle
>>97103835>160mm base>Legs still overhang that muchGod DAMN those spiders are big. How the fuck has GW let Spiderfang rot like that?
>>97103859That makes more sense than the creative assembly trying to make a 40k game work. I'm biased against 40k but fundamentally the warscape engine cannot do modern combat, dow 2 is the closest anyone will ever get to an accurate 40k game.
>>97103844MOAR HECKIN RUMORS OH MY SCIENCE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Pics or shut the fuck up
>>97103951>man who constantly gets his ass blown out by fully accurate rumors day after day continues to seethe
>>97103432Unfortunately I'm still waiting for my slaves...
>>97103951Eceleb worship has been especially obnoxious recently for some reason
>>97103844>confirm multiple contradicting rumors>one turns out to be correct>see! I told you!
>>97103432I have a qulathis I'm getting ready but it's just to paint, I'm not going anywhere near sylvaneth unless they remove the asinine wyldwood bullshit
>>97103994All I did was report the facts, anon. You immediately had a meltdown though, makes me think that the mere suggestion of AoS potentially getting a popular video game is causing your ass to explode, quite curious behavior really.
>>97103967>buying slavesDUDE THAT'S ILLEGAL I'M TELLING ABRAHAM LINCOLN ON YOU>>97103859It's gotta be, why the fuck would they release TWO 40k strategy games so close together? It would fuck with sales for both games
>>97104027I doubt it would be popular, they've already milked it hard and people are bored of that kind of game. Also some of the most obnoxious AoS haters are the total war secondaries who will never give it a chance regardless of the actual game quality
>>97103697You’d presume wrong because Warcry is dead
>>97104027Is your braid completely rotten? All I did was laugh at some shitty eceleb.
>>97104082Good, no more schizo warcry "units" mashed into this game
>>97103884I don't know, the spider riders are goofy but I guess I somehow have more gitz now. I didn't mean to have so many BUT HEY cool models.
>>97103844I dont see how totaly war would work with aos. its not exactly rank and flank.
>>97104104What size bases are those spiders on? Would be cool if you could run them as snarlfangs when the squatting happens.
>>97104108Total war is rank and flank until the unit does anything then it becomes an awkward blob
>>97104113160mm, they're fuckoff massive.
>>97104122I meant the little riders. I know the big ones are 160mm.
>>97104126OHHhhhHHHh 60mm ovals, so the standard wolf cav size I believe(?) or at least the little underworlds wolf gang.
>>97103884They never even attempted to make it work they just said fuck it add a tree
>>97104119still aos just seems kind of low number scale for a total war style game. Also I dont see how map painting would work, just doesnt seem very plausable imo.
>>97104140I don't understand how you don't think it would work, it's not like the game is a direct reflection of the tabletop anyway>pick a section of a realm >divide it into provinces>realmgates if you do multiple realms>units just stay together like every other total war gameLiterally all they would need to do is make the 3D models of the things they didn't already make
>>97104158eh, seems like a setting more given to dawn of war style RTS than total war. especially with all the specific unit types. It isnt as standardized as total war stuff tends to be.
>>97104140>low number scaleEvery single game of TOW has about 120 dudes per unit, and 19 units and a hero? Scale is a dumb metric especially when it's the High Fantasy branch of Warhammer.
>>97104140the artwork in the battletomes are always 100% bigger than the actual game, total war would be the same
>>97103835Wew lad welcome to tribe
>>97104140>still aos just seems kind of low number scale for a total war style gamThat doesn't matter in the slightest. You don't field units of 120 dudes in tabletop WHFB either. Honestly unit sizes in TOW aren't much larger than AoS in practice anyway, the only real difference is the points are a bit lower generally.
>>97104217yah but it functions like a larger scale battle in ToW with time to rotate formation faces and front archs and shit.
>>97104256I can't promise I'll be stickin' it out for em but they certainly look like some fun hobby material. I didn't intend to have a gitz army but here we are I spose.
>>97104269...And? You can just make that part of the game. Nobody is going to get fixated on "THEY DONT HAVE TO TURN IN AOS WHY DO THEY DO THAT HERE"I can't tell if you're baiting or hopeless.
>>97103676No? It's a main studio product. The last couple of years of wind-downs, flagging sales and retreat to comfy WHFB aesthetics have shown AoS needs no help sabotaging itself.
>>97104209I don't even want the game but you're retarded if you think it's any different than the existing total wars it's literally just different factions
>>97104281idk just seems like a different game type. total war was LITERALLY based on rank and flank games like warhammer fantasy. so fantasy made perfect sense for it. but to me AoS doesnt really play like that. I guess it could work, just doesnt feel right.
>>97104326You're overthinking it. The tabletops have zero bearing on this discussion. They're making a 4x, not a PC port of AoS.
>>97104326Are you retarded on purpose? AoS can easily slot into the grand strategy genre, regardless of the base shape. You're still moving blobs of dudes forwards, it's just more freeform in AoS
>>97104326This must be a troll
>>97104367kek riddle me this if they are going to adapt a round skirmish game like AoS why the fuck would they adapt AoS when they can just adapt 40k and make the same changes and 100x the sales.
>>9710437940K IS ALSO A FUCKING ROUND SKIRMISH GAME YOU FUCKING RETARD FAGGOT
>>97104366it could work, just would think they would do something more in line with the skirmish sort of game.
>>97104389That's my point. If they are going to make some awkward adaptation of a round base skirmish game, in what world do you think they would even consider AoS and not just take the obvious 40k. You have to think like an executive and not like an AoS fanboy for a sec, but as soon as you do you realize why what you said sounds so silly.
Stop feeding him
>>97104394BECAUSE ANOTHER 40K STRATEGY GAME IS BEING MADE AND THAT WOULD FUCK WITH PROFITS FOR BOTH COMPANIES SO IT WOULD BE SAFER TO DO AN AOS GAME INSTEAD
>>97104405Why do you think executives from CA care about the other company? Why do you think GW cares about the conflict. They get paid royalties either way and it's a win win. As if more 40k video games is somehow a bad thing in the eyes of GW. Get off the fanboy ledge and think like a rational person.
>>97104367i think age of sigmar works better with a dawn of war style format.realms of ruin had the right idea, just bad execution with fucked up controls, to limited on rosters structures and tech trees, and the auto play, routing, and sticky fights features as opposed to tight responsive macro and micro were all really bad ideas. the perfect format would be somewhere between dawn of war and starcraft, with a campaign map like dawn of war dark crusadei really dont think the politics and resources and immense focus on macro both on the battlefield and the campaign map from total war suit age of sigmar at all on a vibes level.
>>97103432Finally making some decent progress on my spearhead, shits taking me forever.
Hey there AoS friends. Trying to find a good plastic mounted wizard for my TOW Chaos army. You guys have a lot of great foot options, but I can't find many on horse back (a lot of good chaos lord looking ones). Any suggestions?
>>97104480I would go Black Dragon if I were you, the kit is cheap enough from GW that it doesn't hurt to buy it just for the dragon. It fits the Fantasy Chaos aesthetic pretty well imo if painted right.
>>97104480The Harbinger of Decay
>>97104480It would be pretty easy to kitbash one, just take whatever mounted chaos dude you like, and just cut off the top of their weapon and replace it with a staff. You could also take a horse and put the magister on disc of tzeentch on it, since it's got a wide enough stance to fit on a horse.
So, hobby question. I am wondering what to do about basing my Helsmiths. If I had them from Chamon, would flocking them with sand and painting it gold be appropriate?
>>97104550Sometimes great ideas are terrible ideas. Like 9/11, or your golden sand.
>>97104467You are correct, but you're talking to lifelong copers and swaggerjackers who are DESPERATE for any sort of acknowledgement and/or vector for secondary buy-in for their thin, consumptive IP. They watched the TWW games create a massive casual fanbase for WHFB despite it being an otherwise-dead IP, while AoS languished outside of enfranchised paypig primaries. To them "OF COURSE AOS SHOULD BE A TW WAR" is the inescapable result of years of jealousy.
>>97104550Well, now that the dust has settled you can flock them with that.
>>97104496Yeah that thing is sick, was hoping for just a horse though to fit my marauder aesthetic.>>97104508Love this guy and considering it, but was going Tzeentch themed so I'll keep him on the back burner >>97104516That magister idea isn't bad either, thanks.
Trying to decide between Lumineath or Seraphon. I am a poor lad even if working full time. Which is cheaper?
>>97104467I think people just like total war style RTS better, and that's why they would prefer it>>97104560>lifelong copers and swaggerjackers>They watched the TWW games create a massive casual fanbase for WHFBnone of the people that play TWW3 play TOW. TWW3 is a great game, and it got me interested in warhammer. However TOW models are so fucking ass I picked up AoS instead, which is good because my city actually has a scene for it. I know your mad that GW lumped your game in with "the others" but you don't need to lash out at AoS for it.
>>97102984Him. Need Krethusa's sub for my army
>>97104580Most armies are probably going to cost the same in the end. Painting and hobby supplies are expensive as well. Lumineth have a very, very good Spearhead.
>>97104580for collecting or an army? For collecting Seraphon should be cheaper. For an army it's kind of a toss up. LRL has a lot of units, and some more expensive centerpiece models your likely to take for a full 2k list. For seraphon the "centerpieces" aren't as expensive but it's a popular faction so they tend to be priced higher if your buying secondhand. Painting Seraphon will be easier, but you should go with your gut for what you think you'll like more.
>TWW3's final DLC is End Times>Which would connect directly to TWAoS' announcementYou gotta admit it would be kino as fuck to have the games connect even if loosely through a sort of "The End...?" type of thing
>>97103158nice
>>97104580Look into Fantasy, TOW is both the better game and cheaper to get into at the moment.
>>97104659Nah. Even though I like both settings, that would be retarded. Keep TWW3 open ended where you can fight off the end times. THAT would be kino as fuck.
>>97104659I'm not really sure what an End times DLC would be aside from a new campaign for Archaon. I want TW:AoS just to here the kino FeC lord dialogue. >>97104741there's already a campaign to fight off chaos but it's themed around belakor. They could do one for archaon but it would almost certianly be 90% asset reuse.
>>97104737Go back to your own thread, geezer.
>>97104582>none of the people that play TWW3 play TOW. TWW3 is a great game, and it got me interested in warhammer. However TOW models are so fucking ass I picked up AoS instead, which is good because my city actually has a scene for it. I know your mad that GW lumped your game in with "the others" but you don't need to lash out at AoS for it.TWW3 release date: Feb. 17 2022TOW release date: Jan. 20 2024You're literally still covered in placenta lmao. You don't get an opinion of any sort. Have you even spent ONE YEAR as a wargamer? Do you even have a complete army, have you used it? How many games (of anything) have you even played?
>>97104580Both approximately the same.Lizards can fill out their ranks with bulky infantry and heavy cav that eat up pts quickly for very little cash, but seraphons specialists like it's wizards, artillery, and skinks get financially expensive. Kroxigor and aggradons make for an affordable force that fills up with fewer purchasesElves pay the elf tax, with expensive kits that don't have a lot of meat on their bones as far as bodies or health, but they can also fill their points quickly with named legendary heroes and monster spirits that will often fill 20-30% of an army list per model (in a 2000pt army, some lumineth named characters are 400-600pts)In either case I would start with a Spearhead because it will get you a small play ready force immediately, and then you can expand from there once you get a better idea what you want. Also for seraphon if you go that way, the older spearhead with the carnosaur is a lot more fun if you can find it
>>97103432I am working on this 3d printed great unclean one. This is my first nurgle model, and so far it is pretty fun.
>>97103432>>97103722Short session tonight, but I got the armor color done.
>>97104835That's a nice print. It's coming along nicely, good job, anon.
>>97104835Looks kinda small compared to a genuine on
>>97103156What video does he comment on AoS sales in?
>>97103432painted up this little fucker last night, stoked with how the freehand came out
>>97104874Thanks dude>>97104918Its a bit more lean than a real one, but it is still pretty big. I put it on a 130mm base, and here it is compared to one of my blood warriors
>>97104986Qt
>>97104987I think he was modeled based on the TWW Unclean One.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eNRzDnz_9AA
>>97104550dip your bases in molten bismuth if you're trying to do chamon theme
>>97104987The fuck you do to that GUO? This is Vince's Ushoran tier abortion
>>97105054>melt your bases if you're trying to do chamon themeVery cool plan. I'm sure you've done it and it's a real thing that can be done.
>>97105062>he doesn't knowlmaolmaolmao
>>97105039I never played the game, but that does seem to be accurate>>97105062What a strange take. I bought it for $45 off etsy
>>97105087Hang on he might be cooking here.>Do a simple terrain texture>Base it with a swirl of gray metallics with variable gradients of light to dark>Use a rainbow of contrasts in random rectangular patterns
>>97104986That is really cool anon. The banner is especially awesome. Thank you for sharing it
>hate Stoneguard helmets so fucking much>but their lore is so fucking coolShould I just give up and buy some? They keep calling to me bros.
>>97105139Aesthetics above all, buy the models that you think are cool.
>>97105139Easy head swaps, though im surprised gw hasnt given the an upgrade sprue for better helemets.
>>97102984Is the Fusil-Platoon really that shit in-game? Had a guy at the LGS tell me they have no real punch, speed or defense and being 1 wound most troops die easily.
>>97104856Oh shit anon cool stuff, always nice to a fish elf enjoyer here.>>97105246I remember it being godawful when it came out, though I don't know if they buffed it since.But yeah I mean the ogre is the only thing that cam actually damage things, the wildercorps isn't going to do shit and the fusiliers aren't thst powerful either. It's also just a pretty slow army without any shenanigans, and on top of that it's pretty weak. I mean what's stopping the opponent from mowing down the paper thin wildercorps and then just getting in the face of your gunline? Oh and the metal guy is just kind of there, not much of value to buff.Tldr probably the worst spearhead on release, even old cities (also kinda trash before it got buffed) shat all over it. I haven't kept tabs but if gw hasn't buffed it since then it's likely still garbage.
>>97104856What recipe you use for that?
>>97105288The spearhead info I'm looking at is from June 11th, so probably the same ones you're thinking of. Shame because I really like the look of all the minis.
>>97103244I think he's going to be an alternative sculpt for the Arch Knight releasing in the second wave of CoS and he's supposed to lead the full plate Knights on foot.
>>97103017Here have the entire Kharadon 4e battletome:https://gofile.io/d/0lhZWF
>>97105325He's an alternative for the already existing knight in the command squad
Total War fans seem to think it's very unlikely that the announcement will be AoS.
>>97105398I don't give a fuck, go back to r/gaming
>>97105398I don't think it's very likely either. Be funny though, imagine the seethe.
>>97105398Until total war can make it so you can make your own dudes I don’t fucking care for it. Even realms of ruin tried that.
Parasite Engine
>>97102984>tqAlways liked this guys weird spiky clubswordthing. His face is weirdly pointy but that can easily be fixed with a swap.
>>97103068Why Poles though? Warhammer plastik crack is cheapest there
I hope sylvaneth box with faction terrain to mirror the maggotkin ror box. But instead of dryads or a branch wraith it’s the kurnoth hunters and a uh…I just realized this faction doesn’t have many foot casters.
>>97103742Thats why it's guaranteed to be added as a micro faction like darkoath, if GW runs out of ideas
>>97105547Isn't that what ogroids are for, thematically
>>97103406You mean EXTREME vandus?
I don’t mind Aos being centered around small armies bit it needs to play more like a rpg than being so laughably gamey in return.
>>97102984>TQThe vampires. Best Vampire Lords are all limited ed.
>>97105623Ogroids are Minotaur stand ins technically GW never updated beastmen kits
>>97105624What the fuck happened to Calanax?
>>97105539WFB used to be extremely popular in Poland but then when AoS appeared most people moved to AoS and it became even more popular. There were some people who refused to play AoS and seethe to this day. I thought they were gone but I've met one very bitter person recently. He refuses to play AoS, refuses to play TOW and just seethes and complains he can't play WFB. He also lives TWW. It's probably a similar situation. Quite sad honestly.
>>97105626We just need a better path to glory ruleset as a middle point between Warcry and AoS, like MESBG or something
>>97105708*loves TWW
>>97105694dracoths digievolve into stardrakes, and who knows if stardakes ascend further
>>97105734Digivolving assumes revers is possible. It's not jsut pokemon, but with guns
>>97105740>revers is possiblemaybe it is, and dracoths are in turn reincarnations of higher forms of azyr drakes that are brought to re-experience something closer to mortality again
I think this scheme is cool. Probably an ass to do for 180 clan rats though.
>>97105762if you use a pen instead of a brush it could be fairly trivial actually
>>97103432Currently working on: Wildercorps Hunters (done with one guy and a dog wheeew)Next up: Fusil Major on Ogor Warhulk
>>97105762You've heard about working out at the library, but are you ready for dressing there?
they could have put the lady of vines in the sylvaneth battleforce and it would have been infinitely more interesting than drycha. Fucking hell I hope they never flesh out the outcasts for sylvaneth now.
>>97105708Frankly, I don't believe you. A Pole needs to save coppers for multiple decades to acquire an army of miniature figurines. The idea that "most" Pole players could simply shelve their WHFB army and "move" to AoS is a comic absurdity that beggars belief. Maybe 4 or 5 village headmen or grain barons or county princelings managed that, but absolutely not "most" players. Don't be daft, mate.
>>97105785They put Drycha in every box. Nobody knows why.
Is that a DoK?https://www.warhammer-community.com/en-gb/articles/wy5sonbu/new-episodes-of-blacktalon-start-today-on-warhammer-tv/
>>97105949seems so I actually like the aesthetic she has going on.
Is Lileath adapted into aos or is she just dead, dead?
>>97105949They're going to Mordikar?
>>97105985Presumed dead until further notice, same as all the other old elf gods.
>>97105949weapon design says idoneth
>>97105762looks good but the red dots on the text look strangely like he's covered in purity seals at a glance.
>>97105985dead for real because she fucked up royally in the end times reat in piss

>>97105949>>97106012Maybe Lorai grew her hair out.
>>97106012Hair? It also matches up with krethusas staff.
>>97106012Idoneth don't really use tridents, ironically enough. They're too gladiator coded and that's DoK domain.
>>97106012
>>97106028bident
>>97106024I don't think deepkin chose to shave
>>97106052fluff is inconsistent about that, but there have been mentions of hair or shaving what's certain is that the thralls are bald, at least
>>97105949Yes, like the latest UW warband
>>97105762Why is he wearing blackface
I really want to build and paint a Cauldron of Blood but it might make me want to start a DoK army and there's rumors about a DoK refresh and I'm terrified that they'll put more boys in the army
>>97106123I'd expect the 8th edition kits to leave or get refreshed. We'll probably get a mixed gender witch aelves unit but the horsemen will be gone
>>97106123They're not just putting more boys, they're turning the real daughters of khaine into a minority of the shadow elves book
Look what I got bros.14% off 157€, made the purchase anyways.Stormcast will either be sold or sacrificed to hone my painting skills. Got a long vacation lined up for it at the end of the month and start of January.Gonna have to figure out a way to prime these since I'm in a small flat, but got myself a AK fine grey primer rattle can.I'll be careful not to get them all textured.
I got my skaven battleforce box today :3
>>97105762Why does it look like the eye of Sauron
>>97106166I just carry mine in a box to my local park or an alleyway and go through them with a wooden rod I have magnets sunk and glued in Sometimes a druggie will ask what I'm doing but they've just been curious so far
If I like orks will I like skaven?
>>97106179Similar idea here, but I'll be visiting family with a backyard during Christmas anyways.I'll just sneak out to spray my rats then probably.
Is it just me or is age of sigmar more chill than 40k. Community just seems more welcoming
>>97106012I’d say she stole it from an Idoneth.>>97106055They are all bald per the new battletome.
>>97106123I think it's a real problem that a lot of big developments of a model range since Dominion seems to be about taking a step away from the themes and motifs what made people like the army in the first place.
>>97106166Is it normal for bases to come like this?Package was sealed, nothing missing as far as I can tell, it's just weird that 5 little bases are in a resealable plastic bag, a bunch are in a heat sealed one, and the big ones just were loosely in the box.I'll try to look through the sprues if anything is missing based on the assembly instructions, but doesn't seem like it.
>>97106151>We'll probably get a mixed gender witch aelvesI would rather die
>>97106278then die
>>97106243yeah that's completely normal
>>97106202Without a doubt.
>>97106166Got mine for free with my adepticon ticket :^) selling fast!!!!
>>97106278>>>/tg/slop>>>/lgbt/
>>97106153One thing I'd love to see from the refresh is that the lore says that more and more symbols of Khaine are being replaced or remodeled to look like Morathi. I know that GW is doing that plotline about the lame girls who follow that crow bitch, but I really hope new DoK kits have images or statues of Morathi on them.
>>97106296It was only with the advanced badge that costs more than Skaventide did kek retard larper
Washed my last skull crusher with a brush cause I was on the phone and didn’t want to turn on my airbrush. I’m afraid it will come out too blotchy cause I thinned the dark tone with water, but I’m gonna layer over it with more red anyway. The important thing is that it gets in all those rivets and around the chaos iconography. I’m really tempted to panel line it black with a brush….hnnnggg…I really want to get in all those gouges and slashes across the flanks and face of the juggernaut
>>97106315Price out what came with the badge it was free anon. Seethe
>>97106028thrallmaster and eels do have bidents though, and the eidolon has a big trident.
>>97106348Fuck forgot to crop my phone pic
What really bugs me about the guys in DoK is that the models don't tell the story. They are disposable slaves, they should look like that. Yes, I know, in the lore the thing on their forehead is a brand of submission, but show these models to someone not familiar with the lore and there's no way they're guessing the guy is of lower status than the girls.Give them a collar, whipmarks, maybe some manacles, and definitely give them worse gear for crying out loud! Let them be obviously the underclass in service to the Daughters, and then I might be interested.
>>97106383Warlocks are not disposable slaves. They don't make models for the slave caste.
>>97106350>paying almost 200 to go to adepticon >paying more for travel and accommodation I'm happy they got pity gifts lmao you didn't though and you're clueless
>>97106383Keep your fetish to yourself troon
>>97106383>Give them a collarThey really only just need to do this.
>>97106402Warlocks are a hell of a lot more disposable than Witch Aelves>>97106414That is not a valid criticism when the army under discussion is explicitly the femdom army for femdom enthusiasts.
It seems all the “troon” schizo-posting has bled over to this general from /40kg/.Things must be really slow this week. I guess all the recent space marine releases have really driven them over the edge.
Ok valrak says CA is making an aos game. I believe him, because despite what everyone’s opinions of him are he’s been right about almost all of his rumors for the past 2-3 years, to say otherwise is cope. However, this game better be a hit, because if it’s another ROR flop you can bet no other developer is going to touch this IP with a 10 foot pole, and may signal to gw the IP itself doesn’t have much of a future in the mainstream sphere.
>>97106673it depends on how passionate ca is about thisbecause chances are that gw gave them the rights for the 40k with the condition they make a game for aos as well, similarly to how cubicle7 was forced to do make an aos rpg if it wanted to keep doing 40k and old world rpg books
>>97106720Look, call me a doomer all you want, it’s NOT a good song if gw has to force making aos games as conditions to its other properties
>>97106720*Sign, fucking autocorrect
>>97105949Someone do like the Pirates of the Caribbean and be a hero.
>>97106673It would be funny if it was AOS and had been in development the past couple of years. Thus giving TWW fans a reason to hate AOS for fucking with Fantasy all over again.
The problem with Helsmiths rules is that they assume you actually like and want to use the toddlerbots
>>97106818That aspect actually does worry me though. If anything it guarantees that if there is an aos total war game it will be a flop, because it’s just been fantasy fans spouting their BS to the total war community for a full decade. The only part of the total war community pushing back on the fantasy fans are the historical fans, which would hate aos even MORE.
>>97106818It's doubly funny because we know they're also announcing the Nagash/End times DLC for Warhammer 3 tomorrow. The perfect transition to announcing their next Fantasy TW game...Unlikely, but it would be hilarious.
shouldnt you guys be talking about tww in wfg or something.
>>97106873Talking about a potential AoS video game is perfectly on topic for this thread, especially when we've got rumors behind it.
>>97106889meh its whatever when it pertains CA. I hope they're not making a total war and are back to experimenting with something like alien isolation with the ip.
>>97106904Unlikely, given that Sega recently gutted CA and told them to go back to their bread and butter.
>>97106923>given that Sega recently gutted CA and told them to go back to their bread and butter.If they killed the people that were actually decent at making games then I sincerely hope 40k is the beast that kills CA entirely. The last good game that came with CAs touch aside from Alien was fucking shogun 2.
>>97106828I mean that's just the nightmare, Grognards poisoned the AOS well to outsiders with years of "AOS KILLED FANTASY" despite AOS basically just being the logical push forward for a more modern era of this shit. (Shitty rules for 4e not withstanding)I'd hope people would enjoy some cool AOS shit made in the total war style but I dunno, that dipshit who burned his elves then put SCE on square bases basically set peoples expectations since day 1.
Started reading the Avocado stories. Surprisingly enjoyable. Especially the flashbacks to his kingdom are nice.>The Seven Beasts were the only constant that they returned to again and again. The wolf, the ursa, the spider, the serpent, the ghost-crane, the chimera, and the drake. At first they had been ways to explain how a duellist might fight, then ways of characterising fighting systems, then of judging how people might respond, then of understanding the world. The wolf attacked, relentless, wearing down its prey until they collapsed. The ursa was wary, held back, judged, then attacked with total and unstoppable force. The spider waited, luring prey into a web and then pouncing. On the qualities and analogies went, a simple set of archetypes applied to everything: the way that a person ate – ursa like, waiting for others to take from the dish for politeness then devouring the remainder. The way that a courtier was both evasive when talking to the king and queen, and then would browbeat a factotum to get what they wanted – a chimera, moving like a snake one moment then growling like a wolf, a creature of many parts.>Occasionally, Elloscar would ask Cado questions about the Seven Beasts, just as he had as they rested from practice and ate the dawn fruit from the royal trees.>‘How do you kill a spider?’>‘It wants me to fight,’ said Cado, ‘so… I don’t give it what it wants. I don’t fight.’>‘Sometimes a fight is going to happen, no matter what, and when you know that, well… The only option is to make sure it starts on your terms.’>Cado chewed and considered.>‘Killing a spider is easy if I am a drake. I can be the spider or the web, or anything else.’>‘True…’ Elloscar shrugged. ‘But the drake does more than change its form to win. It alters the fight itself by any means it can…’
>>97106951>"AOS KILLED FANTASY"it didthe introduction of sigmarines was what required the world to be torn down and rebuilt anew around them
>>97106976>it didOh just go back. They had multiple times where they wanted to retire the setting. More than anything they wanted to ditch the fantasy battle title and adopt a new ip.
>>97106976Nah, they were originally planning to introduce Stormcast to the Old World. The decision to kill off WHFB entirely and start over was made relatively late.
>>97107004>They had multiple times where they wanted to retire the setting.No, they didn't, it only ever went down when they decided to hamfist stormcasts to try and get more money out of marinepigs>>97107005>they were originally planning to introduce Stormcast to the Old WorldNo, they didn't, and if they did, they would have soon found the idea was even more moronic than simply ending the world and starting over
>>97106976AOS is literally just fantasy continued with round bases and zanier bullshit.
>>97104467this
>>97106818>10 years later, AoS kills Fantasy againAHAHAHAHA
>>97106966I gotta get around to reading them.
>>97107031continue on with your clouded conclusion.
>>97106932I'm pretty sure the Alien Isolation team was already long gone before Sega sent a team of Yakuza over to the UK and ordered them to randomly knife 3/10 CA staffers and cancel half their projects. It's all CA's fault either way, they siphoned all their money and staff from every other game for years to pump it into a shooter game so awful that IT WAS CANCELLED AS BASICALLY A FINISHED GAME, NOT EVEN WORTH RELEASING. We'll see. CA has honestly always been a shitty developer, but once in a while they strike gold anyway.
>>97107031>No, they didn't,You know nothing of which you speak, retard.
>>97107005No, we already know there were several attempts to reboot the setting that predate AoS as a concept and consequently Stormcast which were pretty late. WHF was doomed no matter what, if it wasn't AoS it would be a shakeup that saw Empire aligned to Chaos, Dwarfs entirely wiped out beyond a primordial slayer cult dedicated to Grimnir hidden in the depths of the world, and other whacky reinventions that would have been unfamiliar to anyone interested in WHF as it was
>>97107067Back to you, schizo.
>>97106452Our resident DoK gooners are legitimately trans or spamming trans porn, newfag Where did you spill over from? Reddit?
>>97107042Time is a flat circle.
>>97107031>Storm of Chaos >Storm of Magic >Tamurkhan original plot The End Times was the last
>>97107107>>Storm of Chaoswasn't an attempt to end the world, but introduce a slightly different status quo >>Storm of Magichad absolutely no significant narrative development attached>>Tamurkhan original plotwasn't about ending the world either, it would have shaken up the setting more, but nowhere close to ending it, and it was scrapped before publication the end times was the only one that seriously aimed at ending the setting, and it did so because there was the need to make sigmarines, nothing more
>>97102984>TQALL of them. I hate hate hate hate artificial scarcity.
>Tomorrow on the Grotmas Calendar, we’ve got something spooky in store…I think we've got a shot here.
>>97107183It’s a price increase
>>97107183I imagine it’ll tie in with the Nagash TWWH reveal tomorrow.
>>97107199>new nagash model that's completely different from the nagash model that will now be in total war
>>97107213A new nagash model would be awesome if just to get rid of the skeletor head.Imagine if the modal had options to fit more into every death army >new vanilla nagash for bonereapers looking more like katakros>hollow armor nagash for NH>more skeletal body for SBGL>flesh body for FEC
>>97107236fec and gravelords shouldn't have a version the options should be just ossiarch nagash and grim reaper nagash
I blame the ungrateful barbaric Ashf**t for this.
>>97107132Serious cope from someone who hasn't even read the related material
>>97106166Excited for you anon
Speaking of Blacktalon, does anyone have the previous episodes of season 2?
>>97107094the DoK gooner explicitly got spooked when he found out who Natalie Mars is, I don't think this is the case.
>>97107042After Vermintide being left to rot for like a year or so because of Darktide being in dev that's been my thought anytime a large game goes into stasis. It would be interesting to get to live the drama of this shit, since like 10 years ago when it happened the first time I gave no shits about Warhammer.
>>97107317Don't project, it's unsightly.
>>97106673Honestly Realms of Ruin post launch wasn't even that bad. I played it recently and It's pretty good, it just has a deceptively steep learning curve which filtered out all the brainless DoW players who wanted mindless easy mode skirmishes against the AI to watch. Literally all they needed was more tooltips in-game and more accurate difficulty scaling and it would have been way more successful.
>>97106976Meh, depends on what you mean by killing I guess. It's no secret that fantasy had trouble, for example bringing in new players, especially compared to 40k. Even if aos was never created they would've either let it slowly die, or refresh it so thoroughly that it might as well have been aos. But yes finishing the setting was necessary from gw's pov to ensure people moving on to the new game, because if they kept whfb around as is a lot more people would've just kept on playing it instead of buying into gw's new shit.
>>97107369gofile[dot]io[slash]d[slash]k6afEf
>>97106976THAT'S IT, I'M BURNING MY COLLECTION AGAIN.
>>97107531Extremely based. If you didn't burn your army in protest you aren't a grog
>>97107542The most stupid part is this fucker then proceeded to just buy Stormcast anyways. An anon told me a few threads ago and that detail still sticks with me and makes me question reality.
Holy shit the Regiment system is so ass.
>>97107554Yes but we're not allowed to have coalitions and shit anymore so it's all we can make do with.
>>97107554I can see what they were aiming for but it's really fucking annoying limiting my list building around shit. Also when GW determines something as "Regiment leader only" that I would never fucking take that way bugs the fuck out of me.I understand in concept but wish they put a bit more thought into it.
>>97106202A lot of it is our ip is newer, so you don't get the same old guard mentality where you get guys who stopped playing 15 years ago, but remain in the community complaining. We also haven't have any huge video games whereas 40k has had a few really big ones, and we don't have a heresy style book series for loretubers to ai transcribe and feed to secondaries, which as annoying as it is, is a big contributing factor in 2025.
>>97106362Skullcrushers are so cool. I could easily build a full army of nothing but them if they didn't play like ironjawz pigs but worse. I think skullcrushers might have my favorite khorne helmets in any gw ruleset
>>97106202I've noticed it, folks are quite pleasant both in local community and this thread (barring shitters and people raiding) I think it's mostly just people wanna play the game. There isn't as much meme or widespread stuff about Sigmar, so the people here are here for hobbying or just actually playing the fucking game as opposed to all the bloat of 40k.
>>97107599It’s not even just that the ip is newer, aos has had an identity crisis pretty much to this very day. People say its had 10 years of development, but in no way are those 10 years progressively building upon eachother over those years. Aos 1.0 setting/vibe got canned, so you can shave 3 ish years off that 10 year dev time from that alone. Not to mention the minimal development in 3.0 due to the rumored conflicts with old world development. So really aos as we know it today, has only had 5ish true years of development. And again not in a linear straight line. I think it’s close to knowing what vibe it wants to go with now, but needs a good 5-10 years in the oven to bake once the developers have finally settled on it officially.
>>97107580>>97107581My problem is I feel they did it purely to sell more Hero minis.
>>97107649I'm gonna be real, I doubt the guys who write the rules and the guys who make the minis have ever been in the same room as each other.
>>97107032It's not even that zany these days. Aos1 and aos2 were absolutely kooky crazy, and the models reflected that. Even relatively simple concepts like the black coach were made into big insane centerpieces. Aos3 was really the turning point and where we started to see them dialing back that noblebright aesthetic for something they were more familiar with.
>>97107094If you bring up that the dok gooners first "meanwhile in Har kuron" meme featured Natalie Mars fucking a dude in the ass he will sperg out for multiple posts every time how he didn't know and it definitely doesn't bother him when it's brought up
>>97107641If it's due to an identity crisis that we have almost no seething secondaries and nomodels itt then I hope it never finds itself.
>>97107690>seething secondaries and nomodelsWe get those anyways just from the other threads coming in to shit on the floor.
>>97107491Spectacular, great job anon
>>97107696the worst part about it is that both fantasy and scifi grogs have such retarded takes in their own threads that i legitimately cannot tell them apart from the discord raiders trying to start thread wars
>>97106720The people working at CA are complete sloppers right now. They haven’t released anything good since the first dlc for Warhammer 3 many years ago. It’s been dogshit release after dogshit release since. You do not want those same people working on AoS. On the other hand and aos total war being the game that kills CA would be very funny so I kind of want it to be true.
>>97103432ruination chamber
>>97107213That would be really funny and also very on brand for GW.
To the fag who got my hopes up for an AoS TW. Fuck you.
GW kinda fucked the painters last week by not showing the Gelguses from more angles.
>>97107550
>>97106673If stormcast are the only order faction at launch it will flop, simple as. Stormcast aren't space marines, they can't carry a game and studios/James should stop trying to put them front and center.
>>97107921nta, but I also heard him say that in some video, it wasn't a video specifically dedicated to it and was a somewhat offhanded mention, but he did say itmaybe I can dig it up
>>97107988At least 6 starting factions should work, right? 2 order 2 chaos 1 for the rest
>>97106673>>97107921>>97107988Why do people do such obvious lies I genuinely don't get it. Do they expect no one to check?
>>97107004>More than anything they wanted to ditch the fantasy battle title and adopt a new ip.That was just the faggot who was ass blasted he couldn't make idoneth in wfb and then basically fucked right off after their initial launch. Which is why they've been stuck in micro faction hell ever since.
>>97107791Glad i could help. if you need anything else, i will gladly share more.
>>97108037>forces terrible concept into microfaction>refuses to elaborate>leavesBased
>>97107401>>97107680Wait, so you're telling me DoK gooner has been posting shemale porn for ages and "couldn't" tell? Lmao, just further proof femdom fags are all closet homos.
>>97108037gw's design process doesn't work like that at all, there's no secret boogeyman to blame for a faction being neglected.
>>97108080>just further proof femdom fags are all closet homos.dude, they literally want phallic objects shoved in their ass, there's no need for a dialogue, let alone proof.
>>97108003Cope, stormcast are not liked, for every fan they have there's someone that hates them just as much if not more. If they're the only order faction at launch it will flop.
>>97108096>there's no secret boogeyman to blame for a faction being neglectedI’m right here, man. Grey Knights, DEldar, IDK, and now LRL.
>>97108110It's an AoS video game it will obviously flop the only question is will it be enough to finally put CA down for good?
>>97108080He'll do it again too. Last time he brought it up unprompted 3 days after it was last posted to just remind everyone it didn't bother him
>>97108125Not the anon you were responding to btw.
>>97108096Yes there is and he's obviously a nurglefag given the fat fuck gets all the non-SM releases.>>97108125You forgot Tzeentch.
>>97108125>LRL>neglectedYou're sloppy, mate
>>97108146>>97108149I meant that I’m coming for LRL next. I own all 4 of those.
>>97108161Well in that case, if you could start collecting nurgle and ultramarines that would be just swell. They need a time out.
>>97105949Link to the ep?
>>97102984Soon
>>97107967Detransitioned and became a man of tasteThe world is healing
>>97107826Generally people who raid the threads use the same format of shitposting as opposed to 40k or ToW people who come in and start throwing a shit fit over some new release or some obscure nobody youtuber with sub 1k views saying like "AOS IS DEAD FOR REAL THIS TIME AND GW WILL PERSONALLY GIVE ME A HAND JOB FOR PLAYING THE GOOD GAMES"I'm just here to shoot the shit with anons and hope no one finds out how many armys I wound up with this year.
>>97107921What are you getting mad about again? He said that 40K TW will be announced tomorrow, he also said CA is working on an AoS game, these are not in fact contradictory statements.
>>97108368True AoS shitposter chads know to use the real pants burners instead of "DUHH SIGMARINES"
>>97108467I miss mapfaggot, this new batch of shitposters aren't the best.
Stay the fuck out of /vg/ you tranny faggots there's more of us and we can raid you harder than what you are doing to us.
>>97108633who are you...?
>>97108544I have to give it to him. Spending 30 minuts waiting for the 60s post timer to run out just to spam something everyone ignored required somebdedication. Modern Spamlenials don't do it like he used to
>>97108334I recall some youtuber mentioning the rocky start of AoS accidentally filtered out "that guy" from migrating fr Whfb
>>97108633Lol, you're already falling apart the second your obvious delusions are challenged and you think you can survive in this thread?
>>97108633why the fuck would I or anyone else go into /vg/? that place harbors and loves to keep trannies in their echo chambers.
>>97108698>NOOOO I CAN'T JUST PLAY WITHOUT POINTS I hate matched play babies so much
>>97108467I mean the funniest shit is any time someone starts some flame war you can just say to post models and mysteriously they'll piss off. Which is weird because half the 40k shitlords just use AOS models for kitbashing.
>>97108734I remember some idiot the other week tried passing off old reddit models as his own when prompted to post models and got clocked IMMEDIATELY.
It has been 5 years 8 months and 10 days since Warhammer: The old world announced they were designing Kislev modelsin that time: >18 Rulebooks and 3 New edition boxes were launched for Necromunda>6 editions of Warhammer underworlds>7 Horus Heresy Books (and both editions of HH Table top)>aeronautica and titanicus getting squatted and being brought back as Legions >2 editions of AoS (and both Cursed city and Darkwater)>2 editions of 40k>All of Kill team since the Kreig/Kommando revamp>2 editions of Blood Bowl>All of Warcry bar the first wave>14 brand new China Models for Warhammer: China Edition ft. some of the Metal and finecast shit from 20+ years agoAnd 0 models for Kislev
>>97108742Amazing.
>>97108742I hope someone saved that because it was funny as fuck
>>97108744>new China Models for Warhammer: China EditionOn that note, I think it's indefensible that Cathay gets to have hot air balloon gun platforms, dragon horses, and giant Rock 'Em Sock 'Em robots, while CoS doesn't get to have demigryphs. And this is before they even got their basic wizards and the Wu Xing War Compass.Where's all my wacky wahoo units?
>>97108861Cos is getting a chimera at least. Oh, and a gate made out of two gargants. There's at least one aos designer out there that still believes in freakshit
>>97108731You must be lucky yo have an assburgers friend who's down to play using homebrew rules with some gentleman's code, instead of following meta religiously
>>97108744>KislevNot until war in Eastern Europe endsAnd probably not if the neighboring cities to the west become at risk
>>97108861>Where's all my wacky wahoo units?COGFORT COMING
>>97108937is that fort a fucking fdm print?!
>>97108915It's only uncommon because warhammer players are usually not interested in miniature games generally or even any other tt games at all. Nowadays even the fattest MtG player indulges in draft or commander
>>97108954Yup, Dark Fantastic Mills sells terrain stl and fdm prints because jew minimising production cost and time Can't be hard to add supports for resin I guess
>>97103844>>97106673>>97106889>>97107921>>97107997Valrak has NOT said they are making an AoS game. Some of you need to hit the Media Literacy gym. What he HAS done is speculate that they might make an AoS game. Which is the lowest-possible-hanging-fruit level of speculation. Valrak's oafish MO is to distinguish between what he "knows" are rumours and what he is speculating about. TW40K is in the first category, according to him. TWAoS is in the second category, according to him. Media *clap* literacy *clap*.(You) are coping because you want AoS products that can penetrate the first layer of the mainstream. But as all of this discussion illustrates, TWAoS is a mighty risk, a potential embarrassing, company-killing flop, and not an assumed slam-dunk like TW40K would be.
Tired of 10thHeard spearhead was goodI like the soulblight gravelord and darkoath models. Any pitfalls I should watch out for?
>>97109333You've been playing WHF 10e this whole time?
>>97109344Yeah. Im just tired of space marines. Every opponent i play is space marines. I look over at the AoS guys and the armies are so much more varied.
>>97109333Darkoath are getting mogged by the new Old World releases. Gravelords are a safer bet if you have the old "whole army, now, forever" demeanour. Darkoath are fine if you're mature enough to buy, build and paint a unit and then learn 6 months later than something new has come out which proxies them hard.
>>97109361Oh sorry I was making a joke about how warhammer fantasy ended in 10th and you said 10e but didn't specify 40k and- nevermindSBGL are plenty good and deathrattle are a resilient subfaction you can fully make a list around. Darkoath is also a subfaction but the units are much softer than chaos warriors.
>>97109404Just to embarrass you a little here: WHFB's 8th edition was its last one. Your attempted joke would only have hit home if anon had referential knowledge of two editions that never existed.
>>97109427I'm retarded
I really really really don't want to dive into a second army when I'm barely painting my first but upon thinking it over I realized I can slop contrast onto the new nurgle dudes and have a good looking army since any pooling can be shrugged off as crusty yucky shit
>Fight against DoK player>Medusa archers>Huh i cant remember what they--->My chunky units got skewered like swiss cheeseOh so that's what they do (Also they got like 5 natural 6's, so there's that)Also gotta say i do like the models, although i dont like much the vegeta looking hairline that their helmets give them
>>97109461You've been playing AoS 4e this whole time?
>>97109502I yield! Have mercy!
>>97109478Ehhhh i would recommend having thoughts on a second army or at LEAST getting one of their unit minisI give you this tip anon because sometimes your army can get fucked up either by points or GW being a bitch and sending them all to Legends
>>97109321You are correct but choose to convey this information in a very obnoxious way.
AoS 4th is also Fantasy 12th edition
>>97109576No, it's not. They're completely different systems. One is a rank and flank game, the other is a skirmish game. Does that bother you?
>>97109321>Still copingIt's ok anon, the video games can't hurt you anymore.
>>97109572Do you think that perhaps that was intentional, in order to punish the liars, the propagandists, and the illiterati I was addressing?
>>97109649No, I think you're raging because you don't want it to be true, and so you're projecting hard about how foolish everyone else is for engaging with it at all. It's a harmless rumor at the end of the day, dozens of them a month come and go, it's irrational to be so upset by people discussing them unless there's another reason you're seething so much.
>>97109624Have you compared 40k 10th to first edition?It does not bother me. Just living in the real world. Fantasy didn't die, just hae a superior sequel
>>97109848It absolutely did die and it was only brought back because of a video game, deal with it.
>>97108937>put all this effort into painting it, creating a diaorama with other painted mini's and setting up a nice photo>couldn't be bothered to sand the print lines off to make it even
>>97109333Darkoath look so bad imo but cool proxies form Fantasy release this Saturday.
>>97109478Don’t do that anon contrast slop is slop. I don’t tell the contrast slopping Nurgle guy his models look like slop but I can tell you that contract slop looks bad before you do it to preserve your money and time before you waste it. Either paint Nurgle properly or don’t bother.
>>97110193>Either paint Nurgle properly or don’t botherI feel like for a lot of people, the fact that you can half ass your nurgle paint job and it will look like a gross nurgle unit is a selling point.
Wow the Christmas battleforce box for Skaven has a lot of empty room inside. They could have fit an extra 2 sprues of clanrats, cheap bastards.
>>97110249post box
>>97105414Given how lazy CA have gotten I unironically think it's more likely than 40k since they can reuse a LOT of stuff from TWWH in an AoS game.
>>97108954Honestly, for something that big and... undetailed, a FDM print unironically makes more sense than resin.
>>97110249You can also get 2 units of Clanrats on Ebay for the price of a subpar handjob.
>>97110189Really, its total cope when someone says that the darkoath are better. They are objectively worse models.
I got the skaven half of the 4e box and the Christmas box, what should I build my weapon batteries as
>>97110028>diaorama
>>97103432Going through the Stormbringer backlog and I'm realizing there's a very legit start to a Gitz army in here. Built 5 fanatics and 80% through a unit of boingrot bouncers (haven't put the heads and weapons on the riders).
>>97103432I'm still waiting on an army swap and decent lot I picked up on Ebay to get my Hedonites. Right now just picking away at the keeper of secrets I have. Very fun model to paint so far.
>>97110696Very much, I kept recommending it to folks anytime the topic comes up. There will never be a better deal for picking up Gitz and squig stuff. Shit you can even get Skagrot for like 13 bucks, if I wanted to run an all stabba army it'd be a great way to do it since its 20 of the shits for 13 bucks. (also those araknarok spiders I traded for were with squigs I had from Stormbringer)
>>97110696>>97110807i tried to order a bunch of shit from them but their checkout kept erroring out. their website is absolutely non functional garbage
>>97110816It totally is, you don't even get notifications for shipping. But when it does work it's a good deal.
>>97110696still waiting for the final drop so I can get my grubby little hands on the guy on thing (big)
>>97110855which one's that?
>>97110873>>97110873>>97110873
>>97110866Skumdrekk
>>97109675Why try to peer into my motivation and emotional state? As you yourself acknowledged, I am right. The other people were either wrong or lying. If watching me point that out irritated you, maybe it's because you want the opposite of what I want to be true, so being reminded of the cold truth makes you feel bad, and lashing out salves that hurt.T-Minus 4 hours until they announce TW40K, though. Happy announcement day brother!
