AGAIN, WHERE THE FUCK IS KRAWLMAW GEEDUBS???
and again, Is 50€ a good price for a Temple of skulls? I need a centerpiece for my chaos-themed board
>>97545371Better to make something yourself. The latest White Dwarf has a good feature about making Nurgle Terrain for example and theres plenty of old issues and youtube videos about making your own stuff.
>>97545379I do make most of my terrain, but this one looks nice. How much was it back in the days?
>>9754538425 to 30 i think but it largely looks like a big one piece plastic mould and has aged pretty bad. You could get fish tank stuff and it looks more detailed.
>>97545352TQ : Battle for Skull Pass, because i discovered WFB through this box. I was into LOTR and thought Warhammer was super weird but i was still intrigued. Later I realised what a great deal it was. I wish i bought one when it costed 50€
>>97545143>small Khorne cults that worship the true Emperor, and harken back to Sigmar’s barbaric warrior wayswhy arent there more barbarian larpers for a society perpetually at war that worships a barbarian warrior? warrior priests dont even go in on that aesthetic or mentality or whatever
>>97545384I'd say it's a good deal, especially if you like that particular terrain. Still cheaper than the terrain GW currently sells.
>>97545352I still can't believe there isnt a more direct English analogy in warhammer fantasy, an English Property. Yes yes jokes about high elves being the english as they see themselves and Albion being the english as others see them, but really. Like a faction that has the more iconic medieval english characters of strong foot knights/men at arms and longbowmen. 100 years war or war of the roses stuff. Just is weird when you have direct French, German, Italian, Spanish and Slavic analogies in Bretonnia, Empire, Tilia, Estalia, and Kislev.Even, like if its just a single Dukedom in Bretonnia with a weird knack for foot knights and Peasants who get TWO WHOLE days off a month (One being mandatory archery practice) instead of one.
Why does this game have so many god damn beastmen players compared to every other version of any warhammer?
>>97545512Is there beastmen as a major faction in the other warhammers rather than the odd one or two units?
>>97545512It literally says in the rulebook that the Beastmen are the protagonists in WHFB.
>>97545512cheap as hell everywhere.
>>97545527>was an army in age of sigmar>was an army in WHFB>has a kill team, yes really>is in warcry still (i thin?)>Has a Bloodbowl team>Is an army in The Old World>Has a warband in MordheimThey aren't as widespread as humans, orcs and dwarves but they are pretty up there. They are just a super minority in everything else but in ToW might be one of the most popular armies with casual players and competitive is at least middle of the road if not higher.
Should I try this in my next Warhammer game at 1k? Just run in with my Warboss and kill stuff!
>>97545461not only there should be barbarian larpers, there should be actual barbarians from the lands sigmar's tribes came from and/or that settled elsewhere instead of the old world or the northern lands
>>97545607>has a kill team, yes reallywhat?
I got War for Settra's Fury and Razing of the Westerlands coming in the mail. Right now thats everything for 500pts and escalation campaigns right?
>>97545654No.
>>97545612Chadengar Thunderthighs.>>97545461Nigga, that's like 75% of Ulric Worshippers up north. A good proportion of Middenland is literally that.I guess its cause sigmar particularly is about GETTING PAST the barbarian indivigualism that defined his people and grouping together into a larger civilization and unity. Sigmar is more like the older king of Aquilonia Conan rather than his younger years wandering sellsword Conan. Thiough some sigmarites might try to go the more unorthodox barbarlarping too.
>>97545461Sorry, my picture says this is how Sigmar looks like canonically. Your depiction of Sigmar is that from a heretical sect.
Reminder: its a beastGOD world you are just living in it.
>>97545718Beastslut propaganda. Most of those places dont even have the natural resources to support any signifigant number of beastkeks. They are probably in these areas, but a lot of them are like 5 ungors per 25 square miles in fucking northern Norsca and the Steppe, while the darker colors imply high density.
>>97545352>TQ Battle for Skull Pass, ofc.
>tfw you're on a coast far from Ulthuan, gazing back towards a home you haven't seen in decades, wondering if you spouse regrets you joining up. Maybe if they argued more forcefully, if you were a bit weaker, you wouldn't be here. >You can still remember their face when you left, that mix of bitterness, anger, betrayal that you would leave like this, but somewhere in their face a bit of pride. They understand and couldn't hide their joy seeing you in that uniform. >You try not to think about how long it's been as you brew the last satchel of tea you snuck from home. The light fragrance dances around your camp. You see others look out across the waves with you, their eyes only seeing memories of home and the regiment's musician plays a ancient ballad before the endless war.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XCpqxWcjSWQ&list=RD9zDbOtY6j18
Any WFRP 2e oldbeard that can give me tips and rules-of-thumb for making NPCs? Or at least NPC templates? The corebook and the Bestiary have some stuff, but sometimes I need something specialized. I’ve been considering if I should just use an average ”Human” template and give someone a fully leveled career?
>recaster disappeared after requesting an order for some 7th ed VC wolves>caved and bought the Shitmar wolves (they're nice minis tbf)>they are fucking gigantic next to my 6th/7th ed era armyFuck scale creep
>>97545607You forgot underworlds :)>>97545615Fellgor raiders, something like that
>>97545821awooo with me brothers
>>97545833Fuck me, those legs would be great for a kitbash I'm working on.
So does anyone use the Centigor command? be it in unit of 5 or 10 i've always seen folks just use the basic bitch drunks.
>>97545801Cute elfy girl stuff I suppose.Anyways, you're squatting on Freiherr Hohenhofen's land. Light 'em up Heinrich!https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vPzfKe_G4Ng Since we're posting songs in these threads now apparently.
>>97545821Yeah, it's pretty bad. Also I don't see anyone talk about it, but the old Black Knights are still in the Hexwraiths box from the pictures. Those models are great.
>>97546036>Those models are great.They fiddly as fuck to assemble.
>>97546036 my autism cant handle this, I would have to sell that mini
>love for gsc is tempting me to get back into 40k my ogre army can wait. Ill be back. Surely.
>>97546036His pose makes it look like those shitty virgin v chad memes from /r9k/ many years ago.I'm glad I bought a cheap old Kurt Helborg, he mogs this guy despite being smaller.
>>97545491I'm going to pretend you aren't just Perrynigger stirring shit again because I feel like dunking on your retardation. There are no less than *3* versions of Britain in WHF: Albion(British Celts), High Elves(British Empire), and Bretonnia(yes there are prominant French elements, but those are filtered through a very English framing of Arthurian legend and grail lore).There aren't any explicit depictions of SOUF FC-tier Anglo-Saxon peasant retards, no, but nobody wants to see that anyway.
>>97546060>He doesn't want his army being led by a sixfootnine gigachad
>>97545821really? got the new goblin wolf riders and they aren't any bigger, they just have less compact poses. The old dire wolves were pretty big as well.
>>97546097It is. He even posted >>97546036 again. Which he tends to do. He isn’t very creative all things considered.
>>97546036Why do you pretend that this is a problem with any of the new models except this one? None of the Cathay or the new Chaos Marauders have scale issues. This model is awful but pretending this is a common issue is dishonest at best.
>>97546214>new Chaos Marauders have scale issuesAnon let’s not get into that. Marauders shouldn’t be as big as warriors.
>>97545833I really regret never nabbing these when they were easily available. Those ungors are great.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B795qxnGUHwVC came out of the trees like a sickness of the earth, a tide of tattered cloth and rot, as if every graveyard in 20 leagues had been raised at once. We loosed volley after volley, our shafts punching through flesh and snapping bones, but they never stopped coming. Finally when our spear were slick with ichor, Ellouwyr gave the order, Firey Conflagrations at the Treeline, Danger Close. The mages strafed their ranks, Skycutters and Eagles bringing a white burning rain. I felt the heat wash over me in a wave, a sudden, violent summer that singed the tips of my locks. I’ll never forget the smell, wet soil and pine needles and the stench of putrid flesh set ablaze, but it’s the only reason I’m still here.>>97545949Good pick!
How bad of a time would i have if i wanted to use a lector of sigmar as general of my empire grand army? He would be on foot because i really like the old model. How would i kit him out?
>>97545491There is, it's called The EmpireIRL, the Anglo-Saxons were basically Germans who moved to Britain in the post-roman power vacuum.You have Albion which is the fantasy version of pre-Roman Celtic Britain.In Warhammer, the men of the empire never bothered taking over or settling Albion, so it would be like if the Anglo-Saxons never left mainland Europe, meaning The Empire is still the closest thing to the English (it's just that they're also German and the split never happened)
>>97546220They aren’t. Warriors are still taller. This doesn’t show warriors but it shows numerous other old sculpts and you can see they don’t look out of scale like the hero sculpt. Again you are either misinformed or malicious.
>>97546290vhg, ze Empire...I don't think there's an exact Anglo-Saxon equivalent within the Empire. Most of the states remain rather vague, other than that Reikland is very much Austria (with maybe the Rhineland), Westerland is the Dutch insert, Sylvania is just Transylvania but with more saxons. Wissenland & Averland have some vague Bavarian characterisations and Middenland & Ostland have some Prussia references. Even then most of those references are surface level by design, and its overall just German... with the exception of Westerland again, thanks to the RPG books Marienburg received & is going to receive.
Just to ask again since thread died.>>97543564Is poison wind that bad? Could I use the flame one to shoot over my own unit?
>>97545491Are the Dwarfs the Anglo-Saxon stand in?
>>97546290>>97546433Eh, The empire is pretty firmly different flavors of HRE, and definitely continental. All Franz von Krauts, and non of thier units or general shticks are particularly English... Not really known for thier foot knights, not particularly known for thier bowmen (Ofc there are special regiments like Stir River patrol, but not really english coded).>>97546433Eh, much more generally germanic, and if anything more norse. OFC based off the saga dwarves the most.>>97546097wut? I guess vaguely English, but arthurian shit is mostly french interpretation of celtic stuff. I guess they share the same landmass in terms of setting, but besides that not very particularly english. Them being pretty clearely named Piere de la Baguette's and such. THough I guess they have the broad pre c.1350 europe vibe that was common throught western europe, England included.
>>97546433stylistically their emphasis on facemasks, crested helms and head iconography is closer to Anglo-Saxon designs than norse, and slayers are arguably brythonic.
nigger
>>97546122lol, I just posted that because the guy mentioned scale creep, and that's the most horrendous example of it. I literally haven't bought any of the new Empire models because of that image, even though I do think the Battle Wizard and Necromancer look cool.
>>97546510Not really mountainy people though, Norse dwarves are very earth based, also helmet horns give opera norse vibes and slayers give off berzerker vibes.
>>97546547Ignore him, there are 1 or 2 schizos who think everyone is perryfag.
>>97546560Perry is both in wfg and aosg today. Scroll through both it won’t take you long to find him. He’s very middling iq, easy to spot his posts.
>>97546036>GET OUT OF THE WAY SKINNY SHITS
Did tow ever get its path to glory rules? I’ve never seen them talked about here
>>97546676https://tow.whfb.app/campaign-battles/path-to-glory-campaign
>>97546676Very recently. You start at 500pts using the rules from Arcane Journal War for Settras Fury and the escalation rules are from Arcane Journal Razing of the Westerlands
>>97545607>>is in warcry still (i thin?)Beastmen never got a bespoke Warcry Warband. They had rules for using regular AoS models, but literally everything did.Beastmen never getting a Warband was one of the things that made people think they were going to get squatted, before they got squatted.
I need some good fine art or images of Settra the Imperishable or the tomb Kings. Has anyone here got any?
>>97545766>Beastslutnot much of a slur, considering that like 90% of Beastmen players are attracted to the army because they want to fuck a Beastmen lady, want to be a Beastmen fucking a human lady, or want to be the lady getting fucked.
>>97545512Because the army is overpowered. It's that simple, really. Yes, I'm sure there are also refugees coming in and pumping up the numbers, but now that Cathay has been nerfed beastmen are the best army in the game. Whoever wrote the rules for the Herdstone was either mentally unwell or smoking filtered crack. I warned you all about the dangers of adding alternate army lists via Arcane Journals. People called me stupid, but just look at the Wild Herd rules and witness the evils GW has wrought.As for why there are so many beastmen players in this thread, where do you think you are?
Would you be accepting of a new race on a new continent/island being introduced if it didn't interfere with any other lore?
>>97546842I'd be upset considering that there's so much great canon stuff I'd love to see expanded on
>>97546817and which one of these are you?
>>97546906The lady getting fucked, 100%
>>97546919>>97546817I Love Bondage but I like the idea of it not being someone chaos and we'll have a fantasy and the woman eventually falls in love with the big powerful man from the other side so I'm thinking the vampire a couple and the goth or emo woman of the Empire man.
>>97546925The fantasy is that the lady gets fully corrupted and ends up being kept as a pet and used to lure other humans either to the same fate or a grisly death
>>97545352Haven't really been keeping up on TOW news and development and such. Is there any chance that they'll rerun Battle for Skull Pass eventually?
>>97546995lol.lmao.kekaro. We are not banking on your nostalgia. Its all future stuff from here on out.
>>97547006They did a MTO fairly recently, and are currently doing a MTO for 40k.I think rerunning the old starters is possible, but I don't think they will until they have an actual new starter out and it's been out for a bit.
>>97547022Didn’t they actually do a limited rerun of both Battle for Skull Pass and Battle for Macragge in the last few years? It was limited in the sense of a different box and no printed materials but all the original sprues.
>>97547033Island of Blood for AoS
>>97547062I should have picked that box up. Probably still can in some dead end lgs.
>>97547033>>97547062https://www.warhammer-community.com/en-gb/articles/5ZMtOnOE/saturday-pre-orders-dont-miss-out-on-the-battle-for-macragge/Maybe I made up the battle for skull pass MTO as I can’t find anything about it online
>>97546987>The fantasy is that the lady gets fully corrupted and ends up being kept as a petWant a sexual partner not a doll who only does what I want and has no desires for themselves.
>>97547033They also reran the old space marines vs. dark eldar box out of nowhere a few years back
>>97547114No, they have desires still. Freedom from slavery, for the pain to stop, death. Many desires.
>>97546817Who said it was a slur?It was a purely descriptive term.
Just bought some centigors so I can have at least some old minis on the shelf for whenever they (eventually) might update the kit.>inb4 why're you buying old minisit's called having a disposable income and a hobby
>>97547062they released this box and then immediately removed the rules for every model lol
Finally managed to finish the flier bases for my pegasus knights.
Painted my Hexwraiths in under an hour.
>>97548475I can see that
>>97547114but I want to be a doll who does what it's told!
>>97546275Do we have 0 empire players or something?
Can't tell if I prefer my Grave Guard in all black or purple with black sleeves.
>>97548707bad battalion box, ehh rules, kinda in the middle model range wise, no babes, if you want to play humans Bretonnia was a launch faction and Cathay is the new hotness. You can see how Empire might not be very exciting right now
>>97548707This is a beastmen board bro.
>>97548733go purple and darken it down to near black with washes
>>97548742damn right
>>97548742>>97548797/tg/ has fallen. Millions must bleat.

>>97548098Paint them Beastbro, I wish to see them
>>97548392Awesome work anon. What material did you use?
>>97548815Has anyone even played 5e yet?
>>97548831They straight up lied about a release last december so we’ll see each other in 5e around 2027 or 2028
>>97548392is that carved milliput?
>>97548840I don't think C7 will give up the chance to release 5e this year since it's the 40th anniversary of WFRP, but they do seem to keep slipping deadlines.
>>97545821You know what's strange about wolves?The plastic 1992 Battle Masters wolves were gigantic compared to plastic 2000 WHF wolves
This is the future /wfg/ wants for your family!
>>97548829>>9754884480% milliput and 20% green stuff, that makes it less crumbly. I sculpted the general shape and chiseled it afterwards for the stone look.
>>97548899For me it's pic related. Just need to find a better staff and maybe put her on a chariot
I need to find some good damsels in distress minis for rank fillers and a baggage train
>>97549007in b4 that anon posts his dogshit gooner Beastman banner with a comically oversized naked woman hanging off it
Do you guys even realize how humorous it is for me to take 3 weeks vacation, only to come back to this site and ctrl-f "perry" and see you schizos STILL obsessing over me and accusing each other of being me. I literally don't even have to engage itt and you guys still provide me an endless stream of entertainment for free. You losers are DERANGED LMAO >>97546062You will not be missed, you never belonged in our hobby to begin with 40kueer
>>97549117Its just one anon. You've mindbroken him. Any mention or sight of historical models triggers a melty and the perryfag accusations.
>>97549048I don't want gooner stuff, just some classic damsels. Their dresses tastefully torn just enough to make their peril clear.Or maybe not tastefully tornMaybe a little gooner
>>97549117hello perryfren. how are you? what do u like about Fantasy as opposed to 40k?
>>97549175>what do u like about Fantasy as opposed to 40k?We’re openly homosexual here rather than in th closet about it.
>>97549117You are not perryposter. This larp is embarrassing.
>>97549007There's this peasant woman in binds, could be what you're looking for.It may be from the same place the other beast anon got his more depraved ones, but not exactly sure since I've had this one for a while now.
>>97548899This is the future I want.
>>97549456I never understood why vlad would fall in love, it's not like he was in love before becoming a vampire, he allegedly did so after he was already a vampire, a soulless egotistical monsterso what went on? what's special about isabella or his story with her?
>>97549529Nothing empowers the narcissist like a loyal simp. Look at most egirl streamers.
Okay cobbling together 500pts starting for a escalation campaign at locals heres what i got, assuming i've not missed FAQ changesVampire CountsHQ1>Necromancer Acolyte>Sceptere of De Noirot>Dark MagicHQ2>Wight Lord>Sword of Striking>Shield i forget the name ofCore Units>30 zombies>5 dire wolves>10 crpyt ghouls>11 grave guard with standard bearer500points totalI feel like thats solid for the points value. I'd expand the skeles and add some black knights at 1000pts. maybe a thrall if u nasty, but for 500pts i feel like the power gamers will either pump up their heros and lack units or try some meme shit like a lantern or gyrocopter and again lack the ability to spread out and 4 units, one i can pump the numbers of via my necro feels like a solid start even if its less vampire counts and more Necromancer and his shambling bros. Thoughts?
>>97549529Bascally it started as a marriage of political convenience, Vlad gets the keys to the county and nasty old Uncle von Drak gets cucked out of the picture. Then I sabelle showed her true colours of being every bit as mad and sadistic as her father starting with the wedding gift she asked of Vlad - her uncle's heart. Which Vlad obliged by ripping it out of her uncle's chest then and there in the room with the still warm corpse of her father. And so a beautiful romance was born between the charming monster and the monstrously charming couple.
>>97548707Not all ppl in this thread play TOW

>samefagging multiple posts in a row Really wish this board had moderation so losers couldn’t hijack so easily.
humanity is lame.
>>97549617Where are you sticking the Necromancer? I imagine the Wight is going in the GG to make into two rows of 6.
They better show off the new WoC stuff at Adepticon.
>>97550008why? they would be better off showing the wood elf and tomb king stuff.
>>975500131. Because I want to play WoC2. Because I don't want to play Tomb Kings3. Because I don't want to play Wood Elves
>>97550139>1. Because I want to play WoCI dont give a shit. They're boring as hell. Probably the worst designed army in tow rn.
>>97549866I keep forgetting that the tzaangor models are actually supposed to be Beastmen.The new pestigors and slaangors look like god specific Beastmen, but the tzaangors just don't register as a Tzeentchian gors to me, but as humanoid daemons of Tzeentch.
>>97550008Kislev vs Warriors of Chaos box.
>>97549224That's perfect! I just need to figure out the source
>>97550008It'll be Empire
>>97550139>1. Because I want to play WoCWhat is stopping you from starting a WOC army?
>>97550233This feather looks a little bit too fucked up to be a normal empire cap imo
>>97550139I want an ushabti but I don't want to spend 80 bucks on 3. There was a guy on ebay selling 1 for 25 bucks but I waited too long. Muh ushabti.
>>97550241A plastic dragon kit mostly tbqh. I really don't like resin.
>>97550233You’re right but not exactly.
>>97550252That's fair. The prices on the ushabti are absolutely insane. However. If I played TK's I would still probably buy them because they are metal and they are among the best sculpts in that range imo.
>>97550254Why don't you put him on a manticore?
>>97550271I would like a dragon. I don’t have any dragons and never had :(
>>97550277and playing HE or DE or even Greenskins is not an option?
>>97550282It must be a chaotic dragon. HE and DE dragons are cool but they aren't chaosy enough. I know the warpfire dragon exists but its resin.
>>97550284I hope you get what you want anon. Keep in mind a lord on chaos dragon is quite a lot in term of points, you'll probably need a 2500pts army to field him, so you can start looking at the WoC range and get what you like to begin the army
>>97550291Thanks anon. I might grab some marauders when they come out just so I have something to work on.
>>97550217nta but it might be this one>https://manufaktura.co/products/sub-series-122a
>>97550008>>97550013I hope we get some Bretonnian Stuff.Plastic Grail Knights/Questing Knights and a Hippogryph.
>>97549831Nassau, Bahamas
>>97550277Convert one. Im not even being sarcastic or rude, convert a chaos dragon that is what you want. Whether thats using the warpfire dragon (comes with the entire black dragon from DE iirc, and they share the back part so its trivial to add a seat to it, or by doing the double head thing yourself. Its not even that expensive because its just greenstuff work for the most part, a black dragon already comes with two heads base iirc so you just gotta do the neck. or use that stormcast model everyone uses, or the new lady with the big crocodile horse thing, or some 3rd party. The biggest joy of chaos "generic" options is that they can look and be basically whatever you want.
>>97550569Tow babies don’t know how to convert, it’s a miracle they now how to even prime a model.
>>97550591But don’t own any fantasy models from any edition nor do you play fantasy.
>>97550624Shut up.

>TQIsle of Blood felt close to actual gameplay since you had a monster, light cavalry, support Skaven weapons, etc on top of infantry blocks. It and Skull Pass should have gotten reprints and a link to some beta rules as soon as TOW was announced. Just as an appetizer while everyone waited. >>97546344Feel like including AOS guys on there is cheating. I suspect they're super large on purpose to stop people from using them for WHFB/TOW.

>>97551047Why are beastfags always anime watching redditor gooners literally in 100% of cases
>>97551047Why does she have a shaved pussy? Totally immersion breaking. Shaved vaginas are an invention of porn and didn't exist until like the 1990s
>>97551207The whole thing is just unbelievably retarded and immersion breaking but what do you expect from a braindead gooner
Cooked this one up just now
>>97551143Never heard of 'retard strength' before?Goblins are pretty retarded.
>>97549901It's to demonstrate how weird and pathetic this behavior is. They're games in the same franchise being made by the same company. This tribalism just makes you seem like deranged idiot or a troll, and there's 0% chance you act like this in real life.
>>97550241Because I already have one.
>>97551047Nice. Puritan no models simps seething in the comments
>>97551037I really appreciate your 5th edition plastic chaos warriors man. Loved them as a kid.
Do the perry minis actually look ok next to GW ones?
>>97551638I think they emphasize the underdog aspect of regular humans holding the line against massive odds, but it's a matter of taste really.
>samefagging perryniggergenuinely pathetic. Do you guys think he sits at his computer all day trying to get attention?
>>97550892

>>97550892gaem
>>97551695>>97551716Nice game, nice armies, nice table! This should be the standard
>>97551831Man I wish I could field a napoleonic army in fantasy.
>>97551653Not as bad as I thought
>>97551638Better
>>97551878*Better not
>>97551653>>97551878These fit with the GW scale better than GWs own models
>>97551931scale differences in normal troops, especially low tier units, are far worse than when those are present in heroes or elite units.

>>97551037>no more marauders>notice new 5 man forsaken unitHow are they anon?
>>97551957WTF I LOVE CENTERPIECE MODELS!!!!
>>97552008that's not what anyone in this hobby calls a centerpiece model, ignoramus
>>97551242Its perhaps in poor taste, but how is it "retarded and immersion breaking"?
How does he fare in tow
>>97551957>>97551931I don't mind my heroes being a head taller than troops. But that is silly.
>>97551931Tbf those are from two entirely different games. It’s like expecting a medium sized condom to fit on your cock.
War Wagons are machines specifically designed by the most brilliant engineers of the Empire to make you sad.wip
>>97552091This looks retarded. A stagecoach would be better, if not the the hussites have a better designed coach.
I like centerpiece models
>>97552117I don’t. Rank and flank game. Emphasis on rank.
>>97552091Looks dope. Don’t mind perryfag his wife is with the bull so he’s agitated and bored.
>>97552091This is based. Is it the official model or a 3rd party one? Btw I am perryfag, so this guy is retarded>>97552131 kek
Empires filled with retards if they can’t make this.
>>97550655Any feedback?
>>97552143It's just a 3d print. I wanted a steam powered war wagon.Using Perry miniatures is based, they just don't make the hyper specific sculpts that I want.
>>97552124I will ring my screaming bell and you will listen to it's centerpiece bonging
>>97552150That's what I wish the GW war wagon looked like, but if it played anything like a proper hussite war wagon it would be way too strong.
>>97551959Made for minotaur mating press
>>97548989I printed that off to use with my dude™ as a bray-shaman. I'm running a Slaaneshi warherd for an escalation campaign, so I removed the scythe and replaced it with one of those icon staffs I had lying around from the daemonette kit.
>>97552091Very cool. Even if you are a redditor.
What do you guys think of this banner I kitbashed onto my infernal guard? One of my game group bros is a dwarf player and I figured I'd throw some shade by depicting his Karak besieged. Tried to adapt runes too, top left would say "Stronghold, Dominate/Overturn, Sacrifice". Overall I wish I could find a recaster to get a mortar on a carriage from to complete my train..
>>97552230I’m never going to notice it on the table
>>97552230That's sick in the best way. You're quite talented.
>>97552054In what sense? Ramsay is a political opportunist, hes shrewd, cunning and bold/resourceful enough but he is also "just some dude". But then again, there are entire nations of "some dudes" so thats not really a dealbreaker. If you were to create someone in an analogous position? Hes the bastard son of some minor imperial noble who is rumored to be into messed up shit but no one can really prove anything too criminal. Maybe he ends up as part of some chaos cult since hes a sick fuck like that. Probably gets himself killed because hes overly ambitious.
>>97552162This wagon looks really cool. You should paint the crenellation boards alternating colors instead of plain wood. Whatever colors your empire regiment uses
What do we think of Dunkeldorf minis? Utter sovl. Fuck you perryfag, the future is NOW!
Is WFRP worth playing over an OSR in a Warhammer setting?
>>97549934Just hanging out behind the wall of zombies ready to res them as a big murderball.
>>97552124But a dragon is cool
Why would you take anything but the rune of death?
>>97552545If you use it you die in real life
>>97551047For me it's actually the oversized shield. Looks far too big but at the same time that is weirdly intriguing.
>>97552545>old warhammer magic items are balancedwow!
>Whenever I speak to people about WHFB or read about it online, I hear how at the end of its life, lists had devolved to taking one or two turbocharged spellcasters and then a tonne of chaff infantry as ablative wounds for those spellcastersIs this still true today? If so, how does one avoid it?I was thinking of using my 40k demons in TOW, but from what I can see, demons are still yet to get decent rules, but Tzeentch demons look like they've got some nice shooting. Are demons still servicable in games?
>>97552545Nice rune you got there, would be a shame if you couldn't use it...
>>97552606Whats this from?
>>975526424th edition, the same ed as the rune item. The picture is from the site whfb.app.
>>97552054>How does he fare in tow
Do i have to pay for a great weapon if i'm going to give my character a magic 2-handed weapon?
>>97552707No, because giving your character a magic weapon means he's forced to use that magic weapon.
>>97552517Not at all
>>97552674Good website thanks
So when Vampire Counts actually come back to TOW will they bring back the zombies? i'm using the deadwalkers from AoS for my VC and while the scale is nice the very AoS "half the unit is walking around with graves nailed into their back" stuff feels a bit much. Like in AoS it works because there is a discworld where death magic is dominant and so people need to literally nail down the dead to stop them rising because its as common as bad weather. But in fantasy i always got the impression the zombies in a vampire counts army were not the buried dead for the most part -that being a position held by the skeles- but the poor townsfolk of the villages caught in the warpath where a necromancer goes "oh hey free cannon fodder" and they were killed weeks if not days ago and were never buried.Maybe thats just my personal world building autism though. I've heard fireforge games does some excellent zombie villagers and soldiers you can mix and match but they come in boxes of 10 so AoS is shockingly a much more affordable option.
>>97552791They're not going to make VC official because highly place people at GW are desperately trying to pretend that AoS isn't dying.
>>97552804Are you Indian?
>>97552804They just moved the soulblight/fec sculptor over from AoS to TOW last year bro. You don't have the guy who specialised in making undead working on mountain dwarves or wood elves.
>>97552853The funny thing there is he did have a hand in some of the idoneth deepkin stuff. But im not putting much stock into his stuff until I see if he understands how to make rank and flank models. There are limitations that must be adhered to between something on squares and circles.
>>97552908Given his history i imagine he's going to be doing a new zombie dragon and black coach for ToW and other large based stuff like that.
>>97552908I thought the deepkin stuff was some other guy that left GW a while back and that's why they have been getting very little support since he left.
>>97552941>large basedGod I hope not. The coach shouldn’t be larger than a horse rider or two. Preferably the size of chariot, because that’s what it is. As for the dragon, while I bear no love for the 7th edition kit, I hope it maintains its size. I want my models to be something that’s actually transportable. But this is assuming the counts actually get touched on.
>>97552950Maybe the sketches for idk, but ushoran guy did some foot hero’s and infantry for them.
>>97552950The Deepkin were in preproduction for a long time. They were originally planned for whfb as an offshoot of high elves but then when a 9th edition idea was scrapped in favour of the End Times they were put into production for AoS instead. Some ideas at GW kick around for years and often end up in different systems entirely.
>Best Case ScenarioHe was brought over to work on any sort of dragon kit>Worst Case ScenarioHe was brought over to sculpt the Kislev E*emental B*ear.
>>97552958I imagine its mostly to do with scale. The old coach is far too small for scale and the aos one is absurdly large. Same with the new aos zombie dragon on its massive spherical base. They are probably going to put out something inebtween the two so it fits the scale of the other stuff in game on the larger side without going AoS level absurd.
>>97552967Oh ok that good to know.
>>97552967and the worst part is they barely exist in AoS and never do anything significant in the writing. They would be much better in TOW. Their whole story of "their children are all stillborn so they raid coastal settlements for souls and use ocean magics and deep sea witchery" just doesn't fit on the AoS scale of "this continent is alive and having a fued with this living avalanch" stuff.
>>97552967Hmm. Could you use Deepkin models as proxies to cover most options in a high elf army?
>>97552987>and the worst part is they barely exist in AOS and never do anything significant in the writingWow where have I heard that before
>>97552987You could tie them into Mathlaan/Manaan worship in TOW as well. Add an aspect of religion to their purpose.
>>97552990I'd have to lean no. They also don't really look like elves, or at least their ghost man infantry doesn't
>>97552987>>97552990>>97552998Don’t even think about it. They’re too high fantasy.
>>97553006>too high fantasyThis is the most out their they get and its just dudes with no eyes. Most of them are literally just high elves.
>>97553006The actual concept as that guy described it doesn't sound too high fantasy. But I strongly agree with you on the models. They suffer from the same issue that a lot of other AoS models do, no one reigning in the designers at any point. They're like unedited fantasy books.
>>97553021Ah yes let’s ignore the aether flying mounts.
>>97552998That was what they were originally meant to be. A Mathlaan subfaction of high elves.
>>97553006You know they are actually, biologically high elves right?
>>97553021>>97553033I have to agree with the other guy. These are too out there for TOW.
>>97553026But those mounts are just regular animals. If elves using flying magic is a huge deal breaker you must shit yourself when you see anything related to tzeentch.
>>97553033You know I don’t actually play this game for the elves right? It’s for humans. Three elves is bad enough.
>>97553044Get your ass ready then because 2nd edition TOW is the edition of Elves (ASF is coming back)
The funniest part is thinking that they would get fleshed out in tow when wood elves have been barely expanded upon since the games inception. Arguably they *lost* ideas for them as fb went on.
>>97553054Wood Elves are perfect and need no further iteration
>>97553073Yeah that’s why gameplay wise they’ve always been fun to play with/against
>>97552967I like how were just talking shit. No they werent.Thats not a proto idoneth, thats John Blanche drawing a normal elf, thats the prince of ulthuan from dreadfleet.
Friends are starting a 500pt game night at locals, think its time to take the plunge. Whats a recommended 500pts for Tomb Kangz?
>>97553339Figure out yourself. Hint, your troops are mandatory to take either way. Fucking hate you people who ask to be spoon fed.
>>97553339>>97553339Heads up, if you encounter unwarranted feminine hysterics/hostility. Assume it’s our resident shitposter. Just ignore him. 500pts is tougher for TK because of the need to take a heirophabt and a prince/king. Unless there is an exemption for TK’s in the 500 pt format a significant number of points are going to heroes. I like chariots at 500 point levels.
>>97553342This is why you have no friends and nobody calls you.
>>97552791Vampire Counts aren't coming to TOW

Found a old metal chaos spawn from 6th edition for £2 at a car boot sale just needs stripping in some white spirits and good as news, my best find in ages.
>>97553365dark elf players exist? i thought they shit themselves then set fire to all their models years ago lmao
What army does That Guy play at your FLGS?
>>97553389Orcs without any Goblins. Something about Orcs brings out the real cunts in a way Dwarves used to.
>>97552791> i'm using the deadwalkersSorry for your loss. Those are the dumbest sculpts I've ever seen. How the fuck does a tree root grow through a zombie without it decomposing into a skeleton? Why is it almost all of them? Just awful models, I would literally use anything else if given the chance.
>>97553391What does an all orc army have which makes it that guy?
>>97553436No its just That Guy at my locals that plays pure orcs and happens to be a massive cunt.Also anyone that hates Goblins is a pleb anyway.
>>97553389From a powergaming standpoint, WoC. Giant Chaos Spawn and dragon ogres for a 750 point event is ridiculous
>>97553417If it weren't for the stupid roots and trees they'd be great miniatures.
>>97553441Oh ok, fair logic. Tbf we gpt a pretty hard asa fellow who uses O&G too. Nice but absolutely pushes the OP elements. I'm going pure orcs myself, for now, but plan to add a gobbo shaman at 1k.
>>97545352Hope this is the right thread... I'm trying to chase down any lore that exists for the Gods of Law. I know they're mentioned in brief detail in Warhammer Roleplay 1e's corebook, and have a brief overall glance in Apocrypha Now, but are there any other major sources? In particular, I hear that Alluminas had "angel-like" daemons?
So speaking of powergaming waacfags did we see a mass dumping of cathay lanterns online yet?
>>97545491>I still can't believe there isnt a more direct English analogy in warhammer fantasy, an English PropertyBretonnia? Empire of Man?

This guys an asshole but his dad owns the building the store owners rent so they can't do anything until he starts actively committing crimes like vandalism. Frankly id prefer a rules lawyer.
>>97553489>>When he loses goes outside to scream and the store keeps getting noise complaintsBased
>>97553489Oh roght, haven't heard or seen one of these types in many, many years. Worse he is an orc player, majority seem fine though im sure every army has one of these animals. >cuntsUK/Auzy?
>>97553497England. So the CUNT is only used when we actually mean it.
>>97553494kek
>>97551638They're not terrible, anon, but you do notice it when you get close - especially if you use newer GW sculpts, though even older GW sculpts are clearly chunkier than Perry's, as you might expect. I've used a Alchemite Warforger in my Renegade Crowns army as a wizard (because I really like the model), and while it's not distracting for me, or that noticeable at a distance, it's clear he stands head and shoulders around his Perry brethren.Like other anons have said, it's just a matter of taste.
>>97552713So you are saying to use an OSR? Which one fits Warhammer best? I was leaning this way anyway, might read the WFRP books and just note and good ideas then use DCC or something
>>97553592Beastbro chad
>>97552967there's literally no basis for this
I have a lore question. Wood Elfs are the elfs who live in Athel loren, right? It's not like there's different groups of elfs living in different woods all over the place, the Wood Elf army represents these specific guys in this specific place?
>>97554055The Wood Elf army list only really represents the Asrai Wood Elves of Athel Loren, other groups like Eonir Wood Elves in the Empire don't have the same magical connection to the forest that the Asrai do
>>97554055yes and noathel loren is special and it has these special elves, other woods of the old world may have populations of elves living in them that some would argue are closer to the high elves than the wood elves, but at the end of the day are still wood elves by all accounts and then 8th edition introduced the concept of athel loren having once been a forest large enough to touch pretty much the whole world, and still retaining magical roots that connect it to similar magical woods pretty much all over the place that can justify proper wood elves having reach elsewhere by travelling through this not!webwayapparently there are also elves that live in the jungles of kuresh, no idea on whether there's a cultural continuity or they're a separate offshoot I'd lean towards a connection, given the worldroots
Painted another crypt. Another one and my sylvanian board will be done
>>97551716very nice anon, I like that little swamp
>>97551716why do you use so much terrain?
strigoi ghoul cuck
>>97554387You called?
>>97550892I may have fallen asleep before posting about yesterday's game. My bad! Anyway, this was a thrilling encounter that took place in an abandoned and decrepit city out in the desert somewhere between a chaos warband and a dwarf expedition. The chaos warband lost, badly, but a fun time was had by all .My chariot continues to disappoint me. It dealt a furious and earth-shattering two impact hits on the charge against my opponent's gyrocopter and proceeded to be bogged down for four turns. When it finally broke free after shattering the flying machine, it got evaporated by the full force of the dwarfen gunline. My knights, who weren't chosen this time, were cut down by the dwarf rangers wielding great weapons despite killing swathes of them on the charge. My chaos sorcerer rolled a 1 in to a 1 on the eye of the gods table, then proceeded to roll a 1 again. He was stupid for most of the game, but he managed to extirpate himself from the mires of his own ineptitude long enough to cast The Summoning once and clean up what remained of a dwarf ranger unit. My exalted champion, who was wielding the Cackling Blade, cleaved many dwarfs in twain. My warhounds, forsaken, and the majority of my chaos warriors were used as target practice by the dwarfen artillery, but it must be said that once my warriors made it in to melee (thanks to my sorcerer casting Steed of Shadows on the first turn, naturally), they annihilated anything they touched... that is, until they slew a unit too quickly and were left with nothing more to kill! They then got shot off the board, leaving only Ormos, my exalted champion, and Rudolph, my sorcerer, standing. Ormos, seeking an honourable death, charged the dwarf thane and was promptly ventilated thanks to that exploding d6 hits rune. Rudolph, meanwhile, spent the latter half of the game cowering in the ruins of a destroyed building like the worthless spawn-in-waiting he is. A great game, to be sure!Also, I suck at making collages.
>>97552248>plays with his models
>>97554342Very nice! You should really make your own terrain though
>>97552248>on the table?
>>97552005Personally, I think they're utterly worthless, but that's mostly because they've been shot off the board before they could do anything in almost every battle they've fought in. The one time they actually got in to close combat was during my previous game against a Cathay army, and while they did manage to toss out a stupid amount of attacks (18, if my memory serves me), they failed to inflict a single wound on one of those terracotta giants and proceeded to get mulched. If forsaken and MSU in general are good, I sure as hell don't know how to use them. Any time I bring a unit of anything that doesn't contain at least 15 models, it just gets exploded before it can do anything. However, in all fairness, this may be a skill issue on my part. I'm certainly not good at the game! Even in yesterday's battle, I bungled my attempt at having my dogs screen shots from the dwarfen artillery by failing to notice that the organ gun was on a hill. Maybe I should get more dogs, that way I'll have more chances to make mistakes, but those specific metal hounds are already hard enough (and expensive!) to find and I'd rather expand my collection in other ways.>>97551552Thank you, anon. They're by far the part of my collection that I'm the most proud of. I'll be painting up even more of them, this time with metal halberds and the second set of metal command squad bits, soon.
>>97554634Glad you had fun man. Bit bloody rough your dwarf opponemt bringing a hard ass gunline like that. I like your collage and your army even more. Thank you for keeping the chaos banner and good sportsmanship raised high. I, sadly, have left Khorne fornow to go back to my greenskin roots. What did you equip your warriors with?
>>97554674To add though I did recently come 3rd out of 20/23 people with my Khorne army in a Battle March event in January. Korgoth and his Chosen Knights more or less tabled 3 armies.
>>97553489>fell down the grifter rabbit hole and believes every one is a "woke demon"but you are a woke demon
alright, my tax refund came in, I want to get a TOW battalion box and see if I can get some Battle March games or maybe even an escalation league going at my LGS. The problem is, almost all the armies seem really cool. I have a couple I'm leaning towards but I want to hear y'all's thoughts. What battalion box would you pick as the most fun to start TOW with, in terms of building, painting, playing, the lore, everything.
>>97555224The best bang for buck is WoC. Tragically O&G one is dreadful.
>>97555224>OMG I GOT A LITTLE CHUNK OF SPARE CASH, WHAT TOYS SHOULD I BLOW IT ON??!!Poorniggers will never stop being pathetic vermin. I will never understand this mentality
>>97555224There can only be one. Don’t mind the resident troll, she’s on the rag atm.
>>97555224I'd suggest Empire if their battalion box didn't contain the current state troop sculpts. I'd suggest looking up the free TOW army builder tool online and get the rulebook from the repository, and get a feel of what you would be interested in playing with. I got a Battle March force out of a single box of knights and a single box of archers, and got myself an oldhammer miniature as my chapter master.Battle March also comes with some strict point rules for units and individual heroes to avoid powergaming, so you have to keep that in mind with some of the units in the battalion boxes.>>97555288"Owning" a few fractions of internet make believe coins does not make you some rich elite, anon. /biz/ is the containment board for the delusional.
>>97555288>Spent close to 1000£ on warhammer stuff this year>Haven't painted any of it yetThat's right. Lick my boots redditfrog poster.
>>97555455Thanks but I was looking for something with some TOW flavour, not an AoS army
>>97555543Shut it Perry
>>97555558>perry schizo is also a beastfagimagine my surprise
>Dryads not being updated in AoSIt's looking like dryads are coming back to be a TOW " exclusive "
>>97555615I doubt it but hey, im open to surprises.
cover for that Dark Elf WFRP supplement, which I think was meant for 5e, but seems to be releasing before that core rulebook releases
>>97555647TK vs WE box dryads would be pretty slick.
>>97555689that would be with new models though.
>>97555688so are wood elves just not getting anything
Is there a Warhammer RPG book with chaos characters?
>>97555703:')
>>97555703Tome of Corruption for 2eSea of Claws/Lustria for 4e have rules for Norscan characters, you can even get a character that starts with a mark of Khorne if they come from a specific Norse tribe.
>>97555702nope and it's been a running joke for decades nowCloset was Archives of Empire vol 1, which had Eonir lore and a single carrer, but the Eonir Wood elves are somewhat different from the normal WFB Wood Elves.

>>97555815This is true>>97555821The bases are dirt cheap from third parties but the rest of your points are pretty valid. Thanks anons.
>>97555821The “discounts” have been getting expensive for hero’s and center piece stuff when they get ported to tow. Like 100% markup at least for most cases.
>>97555821>>97555851It depends on the kit. For example currently the Black Dragon kit is only $78 CAD. While the HE dragon is $98. I am 100% sure when the black dragon gets reboxed for TOW it's going to be the same price as the HE dragon.
>>97555858Dwarf heros were also like 15 bucks and got made to 40 or something like that now.
>>97555806>>97555821According to the aos leaker they're getting axed from the Cities tome where they've been hanging on for dear life. So they're either coming soon™ for tow or it'll be a while before you can pick them up again. If they go the way of the savage orc (which I don't expect) you're fucked.
>>97555926There’s no way they go the way of the savage orc imo. If they’ve been selling them up to now. It makes no sense to bin them instead of repackaging them for tow
>>97555956the thing is they are still selling a good half of the range for dok still.
>>97555806Unironically, why would you give GW a single dollar of your money?
>>97555983This. There are plenty of 3d printing options available for warhammer and beyond. Even if you cared for kitbashing 3d printing still makes it easy. And there are ebay and etsy sellers that are co-operative.
>>97555983To spite you and specifically you.
>>97554357because it's fun, and makes the table look nice.
>>97556007
>>97555689Just had a fucking insane thought. The rumors said something about new skeletons I think so, what if its Wood elves vs Vampire Coast
>>97556154That would really be badass if I was a child or a redditor
>>97555983NTA and not really what your talking about, but I like having the physical books. Otherwise, I don't buy anything they produce.
>>97556154>spoilerQuite possibly the only matchup even weirder than tk vs we
>>97556179Well, you are in a thread for manchildren, on a board full of redditors.
>>97555735Medium, so probably what you honestly are aiming for and want. Axe of men is good for the general, and with those last 2 points you can give him a shield. Gouge-tusks... let me get back to that.GBS - Talisman is not needed. If you specifically want elementalism best of the standard lore he has access to that's fine and decent. You can make him an ally contingent of Wild herd for the same cost and get primal lore if you want, which would change your ungor herd into a primal herd but losing the inspiring presence on it from the Lord. I love putting Skin of Man on my GBS for spicy fuckery and at 2k pts you can drop the warhounds for harpies for more effect to defend him.BSB - Overloaded. Shaggoth - Underloaded. This is where I would put Gouge-tusks. Shaggoths are fucking insane. Give him gouge-tusks and many-limb or gouge-tusk and uncanny senses. Pass over the Pelt of the dark young and it should win basically any fight short of monster slayer.
>>97556454oh, and Shaggoth doesn't need great weapon 99% of the time, but for 4 pts sure keep it on him for those rare times he needs that -3 ap with gouge tusks
Anyone have any advice for models to start with for TK? Looking to build towards 1000 to start with
>>97556565In terms of value the starter box is hard to beat. However the skeletons may be being replaced soonish (we have rumors of a tk vs we box but it's only from 1 source) so if you would feel bad buying the basic skellies and having them replaced 6-12 months down the line (maybe) then stick to kits we can be confident won't be replaced. Stuff like Tomb Guard, any of the 8th edition plastic kits, bone dragon etc.
>>97556565depends if you mean models or units. If you mean models it might be worth waiting for the rumoured new box coming in spring, but if you want the old skellies then the army box is still a good option. If you mean units then aim for a block of archers and some tomb scorpions and choose your flavour between necropolis knights or ushabti. The dragon and the warsphinx kit both have tomb king/liche priest stand ins.
>>97556454>>97556462Thanks. Toned down the BSB points. Gave my general slugskin and moved gouge tusks to the shaggoth. Also got rid of the talisman of protection on bray-shaman. Next i need to source some third party harpies and some second hand gors. only got 30 and i don't ever see myself using 60 of them to justify buying a second box
>>97552038He's carrying close to 300lbs one-handed.
>>97556678Yeah 60 is too many. There are good arguments for 40 and 50 though. The other 10 could be used for WYSIWYG purposes if that matter to you. Though I'm of the argument you should never run them with shields. I also think there is a fairly compelling argument that units of Gors should only be run in skirmish as well. The -1 to be hit in ranged matters way more than the 6+ armor from shields. And 360 front arc charging and guaranteed higher front line model count more than makes up for 3-4 battle Rez when you have dual weapon str 4 attacks with a chance at primal fury frenzy (though losing warband LD bonus here does hurt).
>>97556717Thats... actually a pretty decent point. It would merit being a BSB or someone else who could claim sufficient strength to do that.
>>97556957I think it would look more believable carried by a minotaur.
>>97557022Or with only one woman. Volkmar was chained to a banner by belakor after all so theres clearly precedent among the forces of chaos.
>>97557178>>97557178>>97557178>>97557178New
>>97552038For starters the woman is way too big, she's almost as long as the staff she's hung on. And why does she have a pornstar shaved pussy? And literally why would a Beastman go through the effort of tying her up to a BSB to lug around in a battle, especially as the other anon pointed out the whole thing would be immensely heavy, instead of just leaving her in their camp? The anon who made it is a coomer that saw the naked woman model and just had to think of a way to include it in his army. It looks dumb and the in-world logic of it is dumb.
>>97555231>>97555455>>97555478OK I know this is going to sound like a lame troll but I promise you it's not, I was asking a genuine questions and I do appreciate your answers and I really am keen to play TOW, but like ten minutes after I made that post I saw the new Sylvaneth kit and I decided to order a Sylvaneth Spearhead and do AoS instead
>>97556154What was the actual source of the rumor?
>>97557205>And literally why would a Beastman go through the effort of tying her up to a BSB to lug around in a battle,As a trophy? Because its going to have a psychological effect on humans? Its like asking why they keep heads around.
>>97553592>Negroidmancer alone at the back of the busB-buh-based
>>97545352All I want to see is new core boxes for the first lineup. New empire, wood elves, chaos or undead and I'm in New wardancers and rangers, a stag chariotEmpire pikemen and new mercenariesVampire counts coach and human thralls
