>TQAs always, my throbbing cock. Gotta get something to lube up the airbrush.
>>97557178>TQ Based on the amount of models posted in this general, the answer is nothing at all
>>97557228I couldn't even like half the models posted in the last thread because it was so many that the system threw it away as spam lmao. If you're going to shitpost choose an angle that can't be disproven in 10 seconds.
Id post my beastmen but I havnt made any meaningful progress since I last did due to work being insane.Got some MTO metal beastmen Chieftains in the mail off a facebook swap group so keen for that
>>97557254And yet you didn't post your models... Curious
>>97557330I’m just here to call you out on your bullshit perrynigger. I already know you have 0 models. And have never played fantasy.
>>97557376ntayrt but it's a bit silly to accuse him of being perrynigger and then say he doesn't have any models, when we have seen perrynigger post an ass load of models, and part of his Infamy came from posting a shit ton of painted models that didn't belong itt
>>97557393No shit Perry. No one cares about your alleged historicals. You’ve never posted a single fantasy model. Because you don’t play and have never played fantasy. Your wife is out with her boyfriend because it’s V day so you’re here shitposting the last two days because you’re upset.
Ive never played the game but i like the idea of having a troll army, is that possible to do? How many trolls does one need to field an army in a standard points game?
>>97557468Yes, in the orc and goblin arcane journal one of the two unique lists is called “ Troll Horde “ which as you can guess is all about buffing and running many Trolls. You can take a look at the actual point values if you follow the links in the OP and look through the orc and goblin book
Hello /wfg/, I am in need of your assistance. I got my hands on a bunch of books today including this copy of WFRP, and I have some questions about it. Is this WFRP1e? The cover art seems to match, but the trademark year in the book is 1995. Didn't WFRP originally come out in the '80s? Is this a re-print of 1e? Is it even 1e? Your help is appreciated.
>>97557650yes but 1e lasted until the 2000s You have a hogshead reprint of the core rulebook, which took over writing WFRP book after GW gave up on the system, and they ended up writing books like the Marianburg City splat and adventures like The Dying of the Light.So your core rulebook copy should be the same as the 1986 version of the rulebook
>>97557666Ah, hell yeah. Thank you, Satan, that was very informative! I'm looking forward to running something with this book, then! Maybe I'll get to find the Realm of Chaos books one day and really get down to business. Thank you again, anon!
>>97557678GW sell Realm of Chaos reprints, but you have to go to Warhammer World in Nottingham to buy them
Post games.
>>97557922That is not a game, that is a diorama.
Not mine but super cool
>>97557934It was a game. Post yours
>>97558004Unfathomably kino
Hi, I'm looking to build a nurgle army for the old world, i have the warriors and knights of chaos started set and the New Marauders box, Waht could i Add to make it look more nurgle Army? also, what colors do you recommend for painting the miniatures in the typical nurgle color? i had death guard green, but it dried out, and i'll have to buy more. i saw that the colors have changed. thank you!
Saw this post in another thread and it got me thinking, how true do you think it is? I have only ever played "GW" games, mostly AoS and recently started with some TOW, played a little 40k back in the 9th ed. days. so I can't really speak on other "wargames." Is this really some merit to this comment or is it just another case of "WDS"., Warhammer Derangement Syndrome
Alright fellas I think I've cooked up something real nice that can actually make use of Dark Magic.take a daemon prince, give him wings, a 4th level of wizardry, heavy armour, the rod of the damned, the tome of the dark gods, a spell familiar, and two favours of the gods. He'll be rolling five spells on Dark Magic, can discard the shit ones (of which there are many) for Blue Fire, Fleshy Abundance, and even Acquiescence if you like living dangerously, is guaranteed three magic missiles (Doombolt, The Summoning, and The Blue Fire of Tzeentch), has a 5/6 chance to have Infernal Gateway (essentially giving him another 12" of threat range and essentially unparalleled mobility), can buff one of your units with Battle Lust (Frenzy + Hatred), can debuff/impede an enemy unit with Word of Pain/Phantasmagoria, and he'll be good in combat thanks to being a daemon prince, Dark Magic having 2 assailment spells, and having 2 re-rolls on the eye of the gods table. Is this meta? No! Is it probably the most fun way to run a level 4 wizard as chaos? Almost certainly yes!
>>97558117It's correct to an extent because GW have been pushing to standardize and gamify their flagship games over the years. For example, 40k 10th ed is very simplified compared to what came before, for balance reasons and to bring in new players. They've also fostered a culture of pick up and play games similar to card games like MTG. Basically you show up to your local game store or Games Workshop store with your army and then you play against somebody there. Historical wargaming isn't like that. Usually the objective is to reenact a real-life historical battle or a battle that could have occurred. There's no obsession with terrain being balanced or either sides being equally matched so one player will usually be the underdog. Furthermore, historical players play in clubs, with their friends or at conventions, with lots of prep going into it. Conventions are a big thing for historical wargamers because it's often one of the only times of the year they actually get to play on those massive tables. There are tournaments but there's no tournament culture like 40k has. Some places will host newbie nights where people who haven't played before can try out games, but there are so few stores that sell historical stuff now. 40k has basically devoured the market just like DND has for TTRPG's. However, if 40k and DND didn't exist, wargaming and TTRPG's would be quite barren, as casual players of those systems will eventually trickle down into alternatives, like Pathfinder in the case of DND, or OSR stuff. Still, the guy in the image you posted isn't 100% correct however because there is a subset of 40k players that only bother with more simulationist and scenario-based play, like a bunch of Horus Heresy players and Necromunda guys.
>>97558117>people have never played actual historical wargames like flames of war
>>97558315Flames of War isnt an actual historical wargame and it's player base entirely consists of 40k players
>>97558368Its an actual historical wargame, meaning "it is a historical wargame, rather than a reenactment club with a population of 12 dudes".
>>97558373>population of 12 dudesIs this supposed to be a dig? I don't know any person who wouldn't prefer a close knit club with a few dedicated enthusiasts over a game store with dozens of randos with half painted armies
>>97558418>Is this supposed to be a dig?It is a description. Games that people actually play are played like games, meaning people express strategy and skill and do things to win (which is the point of a game).Games which serve as historical reenactment attract a different sort of audience, and they instead seek to replicate the results of whatever battle they like instead, and obviously you arent going to have anyone try anything lest it veer from the approved historical record.
>>97558373>>97558418That's why Warhammer is tournament/pickup game focused and historicals aren't. Warhammer is played by the unwashed masses who are not welcome in wargaming clubs or polite society, so they have to rely on tournaments and pickup games with the other LGS freaks. How would these guys ever contribute to a 12x8 foot massive realistic battlefield wargame when they can't even bother to paint the two dozen models in their 40k army ?
>>97558450>That's why Warhammer is tournament/pickup game focused and historicals aren't.Yes, because people actually play it. Its not something closer to watching someones train-set they built. Meaning there is an active gameplay element which serves as a large part of the point. This isnt to say theres something wrong with model trains, its a perfectly fine hobby and theres some level of craftsmanship involved (and a whole lot of effort/attention to detail), but it is what it is.
>>97558156>and he'll be good in combat thanks to being a daemon princeYou would think so, but no. With only Ap-1 and unstable Dps are of finite combat use. If you want him as a pure blaster? Could work. But otherwise I think you need the dagger of the dark pantheon or some other magical weapon, to give him the Ap he needs to actually make use of that S6 (plus the dagger helps fuel dispells and casting).
>>97558440>>97558440>>97558458>they instead seek to replicate the results of whatever battle they like instead, and obviously you arent going to have anyone try anything lest it veer from the approved historical recordIt's always funny when I see this posted, invariably by some Warhammer drone. Tell me you have never played a /hwg/ game in your life without saying it. Sure 'some' historical gamers will set out to replicate a specific scenario from history, but literally no one sets out to replicate a specific result, if they did it wouldn't be a game. People who play specific scenarios or battle love to see how they can make the battle play out differently than a historical commander did, or what ''could' have happened. Literally no one "reenacts" battles on the tabletop, if there did there would be no need for rules and dice rolling, they would just slide the troops across the table in a prearranged order until the set conclusion was reached ~ no need for rules, or even an opponent in this case. It's not tabletop war reenacting, it's tabletop war gaming. As usual, it seems like a lot of criticism and opinions regarding things come from a complete lack of understanding or familiarity. Your idea of what historical wargaming is comes from a notion which is completely made up in your head and not based in reality.Ask yourself this, anon: why do historical games have dice rolling mechanics if the result is supposedly already established?
What was the source of the rumor about a new starter set?
>>97558498I made it up
>>97558496>t's tabletop war gaming.Some of it is, like flames of war. Some of it isnt.
The absolute state
>>97558532The resin puddle is the grossest thing there.
Steam wagon WIP.
>>97558532>just spray paint the table green and call it a day
>>97558536It's shaping up beautifully. Keep us updated.
The Druchii are gonna come home.
>>97558587ogres are still more likely. that one dark elf faction in aos still has a majority of the kits, it wouldnt surprise me if GW just removes the ktis from their shop altogether just to spite their fanbase for a year or two of the corsairs,dread spears, etc and other stuff to upcharge it later.
>>97558604I know it seems like it's half the kits in the dark elf range but it's literally only 2 kits. Dual kit infantry and then the shrine makes like 100 different things
>>97558587Fuck the druchi, when the fuck is kislev coming?
>>97558642The horses, the shrine, the witches...wow yeah its not much.
>>97558478I had considered the dagger of the dark pantheon, but taking it would mean sacrificing the spell familiar, the 2x favour of the gods, and either the tome of the dark gods or the rod of the damned. I don't think that's worth it in exchange for a +1 to cast that I might not even get to take advantage of. If AP-2 is so important, wouldn't the biting blade be a good idea? AP-2 for 15 points would only require me to give up on the spell familiar. I'll have to experiment with both setups. I think playing him as purely a caster is safer and might be better overall, but I like the idea of my daemon prince being able to both cast and fight.They really did do DPs dirty in TOW, they just kinda suck unless you run them in one or two specific ways. I wonder why.
>>97558662Forgot the cav because they always felt kinda tacked on to DoK. But yeah, only 3 kits.
>>97558536There we go, now its based. 60x90?
>>97558649>Fuck the druchiI really want to but they'd hurt me.
>>97558004What are you using for that red/blue background? Looks incredibly atmospheric >>97558117Most of the contemporary GW player base treats wargames as something like LoL or CSgo; equal playing field, symmetrical armies and terrain setup, capture-the-objective gameplay and a competitive focus, the game is less about complex scenarios and emergent narrative and more about fighting for the sake of it. So yeah, that post is pretty accurate for the most part.As an additional point, historical gamers tend to care more about accurate terrain and fully painted armies Vs GW players with their bare MDF ruins and 3-colour minimum armies.
>>97557178>What are you currently working on?!Terrains for my sylvanian board, then I'll try to finish my 2000pts WoC army
>>97558937Looking lovely, just please bevel those edges, my man
>>97558937Holy shit that's dope
>>97557399Post your models, perryschizo
>>97558532this doesnt work anymore since 1.5
>>97559124Doesn't matter. He's just shitposting about things he knows nothing about.And next thread he'll post the same shitpost.I can tell from the filename hash that he saved the image I uploaded in posts discussing how linehammer was the cancer of early TOW and had been fixed by the 1.5 update.
Is this guy emtirely made by the Warboss kit? Looks really good.
>>97559499yeah that kit came with a lot of options
>>97557922Is that a carrousel of skeletal horses? Sick!
>played whrp1e as my first RPG with an older grog uncle as a kid>read the army books over the years, but didn't dip into the novels for whatever reason>now I get a chance to GM a 4e game I need advice on one thing, since I might gotten this skewed due to how my uncle GMed: how much shit should take and be able to talk in the Empire and other regions, on average? Overall the Empire and Dwarven Holds have friendly relations but hoh much an Imperial dwarf will be treated well and how much can he get away with? Should the average elf visiting the Empire be it from the island or the forest expect hostiliy or at least some sort of xenophobia when travelling the country? I know halflings have a partially earned opinion on being short smelly kleptomaniacs but most people put up with them up to a point.
>>97559124The fact that it ever worked is the problem. An even bigger issue than that being allowed in the rules, is the fact the the player base is eagerly WILLING to exploit stupid oversights like this, despite it being extremely implausible and ridiculous
>>97559708There is one bit of the SG, particularly BB, I appreciate: Little to no exploitation if rules. It has its own design issues but rules lawyering aint one.
Does anyone have any methods or rules of thumb in-order to make some basic human NPC templates for WFRP 2e?
>>97559708The playerbase wasn't willing to exploit it. Competitive players are not the majority, nor even a significant portion, of the playerbase.
>>97559708Sound like a (you) problem.In my club this sort of rule lawyers is ridiculed and chased out.
>>97558500no there was like a list of predictions someone posted somehere, and the starter was one of them. Dos anybody have that original post?
>>97558662literally all DoK players want that fucking cav kit replaced with something that actually belongs in the army
>>97559745Yeah I wrote that list as a joke
>>97559780but almost all of your jokes turned out to be true
>>97558498Some french youtuber, I forgot what they were called. You can probably find it easily enough on tga though.
>>97559842chaos soup journal sounds dope.the starter set i don’t understand. tk and welves are not the most popular factions it seems like a weird choice no?
>>97557524So why wouldn't they just chop her head off and carry that around instead? Same effect, far less hassle.
>>97559916you don't get it, if the vitruvian man is the ultimate exaltation of the human form, then hanging upside down a woman like that is its ultimate desecration!
>>97559886>tk and welves are not the most popular factions it seems like a weird choice no?I think/hope that's why they would do it. Since the game is still in flux and we don't have the solidified player bases of other games, they're trying to take the two least popular armies and really push them. Get those player bases built up for the future
>>97558217Yeah, I think your point of the “gameification” of 40k and AoS is where this behavior comes from, or maybe that behavior is what caused it. I think then those players branch out to games like TOW, or other more narrative-driven games, then shit up the genepool by being WAAC.Really the best solution that most people gloss over is just communicating with an opponent. I get there are some real faggots out there, but they’re pretty easy to single out.
>>97558498Tomb Kings vs Wood Elves, only info that was given
>>97559886Tomb Kings are fairly popular in TOW. Wood Elves I think would be extremely popular, just their reliance on expensive metal/resin kits is probably a turn off for new players.
I LOVE WARHAMMER FANTASY ROLEPLAY SECOND EDITION
speaking of WFRP, I know basically nothing about it, are 2e books compatible with 1e? If I wanted to run a chaos game, should I just use the RoC books or would the tome of corruption work?
>>975600691e and 2e are absolutely compatible, requiring basically no work. 1e/2e to 4e requires a lot more work, but absolutely doable.
>>97560069>>97560075and 3e is it's own thing
Finished my Gors at last
>>97560060whoever did this artwork clearly never saw an actual halberd, and people here worship old art lmao
>>97560075Awesome, thank you anon! I'm really looking forward to running wfrp, I've heard nothing but good things about the system for years and I love whfb in general. I just have to get through a VtM game first, then it's wfrp time.
>>97560242>whoever did this artworkAdrian Smith?
Had a 1000p game against ogers, we rolled for a scenario and got open battle.My opponent got first turn, but in the first round he and I only moved stuff forward.After he moved stuff closer on his 2nd turn I managed to get off two charges one with my beastlord + bestigor unit and one with my bray shaman and gor unit.My beastlord and his dudes wrecked the Ironguts while my Gors fared poorly against his regular Ogers.His maneaters got into combat with my Ungors and got them on the run after a few turns.My Razorgor also managed to hold his Gorger for 3 turns until my Minotaurs came out of ambush to finish it off.The game ended on turn 5 after the Ogre Bulls ran over my fleeing units of Gors, but not after on the last turn I managed to do an 11 inch charge with my beastlord and his bestigors to finish the Ogers off, leaving me with a pyrrhic victory, the scores being fairly close in the end.So all in all a fun game with a narrow Beastmen victory, I will probably write some fun narrative piece about the battle as well.>>97560232Good lookin goats my dude.
>>97560280My army/the units I used in the battle
>>97560069Is WFRP or OSRs better for dungeon crawling?
>>97560300probably an OSR system(Warlock maybe) since WFRP lacks proper healing, which is just long resting
>>97560300To me, WFRP lends itself better to big city adventures. Running criss and cross town to stop some doomsday and uncovering conspiracy. The crawl is then making it to week's end and the trap is Imperial city life, with its debts and violence and piss. OSR is better tooled for it.
>>97560300My only experience with the OSR is running a B/X game for my university, and it was good fun! Highly recommend it, especially if your players are inexperienced. I can't really speak about wfrp, but I do think you should give B/X a shot. It was designed for dungeons from the ground up, after all. However, a system is what you make of it, so go nuts and run whatever you want as whatever you want.
>>97560289>>97560280Nice army! Spoiled by the horrendous battlefield and terrain
My local is running a tournament next month. Battle March 750. How does this list look?Orc & Goblin Tribes [747 pts]Warhammer: The Old World, Orc & Goblin Tribes, Battle MarchOrc Bigboss, Heavy armour, General, On foot, Charmed Shield - 6320 Orc Mob, Light armour, Shields, Big 'Uns, Boss (champion), Standard bearer - 17220 Orc Mob, Light armour, Shields, Boss (champion), Standard bearer - 13214 Orc Mob, Warbows, Light armour, Skirmishers, Boss (champion), Standard bearer [Da Spider Banner] - 1176 Orc Boar Boy Mob, Cavalry spears, Heavy armour, Shields, Big 'Uns, Boss (champion) - 1282 Common Troll Mob, Troll vomit, Light armour, 2x Great weapons - 90Goblin Bolt Throwa, Bolt thrower - 45Trolls will run in between both orc boy blocks to use as a counter charge. Arrer and bolt throwers will aim for biggest threat. Boar boyz run down the flank.
>>97560380Orcs should NEVER weild bows. Change that, if possible, to goblins. Rest is okay.
>>97560477>Orcs shouldn't use twanga
>>97560374What's wrong with the battlefield? Looks pretty decent and thematic to me.
>>97560289It's been said before, but I fuckin' love that pig, anon. He's giving everyone the stink eye and that's what I appreciate about him. Also, that metal shaman is wonderful, you did an excellent job.
>>97557178>TQChariot, two days ago I prepared pins and so on, and now I've barely started painting.
>>97560575I thought about it, and tried to justify taking Arrer Boyz, but choppa tax and t4 cost, amounting to being about twice the cost of a goblin, which shoots just as well, makes him a unit that's paying too much for things he probably won't use.I hate to say it, but Arrer Boyz are a needless points sink.I thought about their utility in the most generous terms possible; for instance, as siege defenders in a scenario, but then realized that the choppa tax is even worse then; in an open field they might get a chance to counter-charge, but not when shooting from a wall.Overall, by my reckoning, in optimal circumstances, Orc Arrer Boys are still over costed for their effect.
>>97560641Thanks Anon, glad you like the minis I paint.
>>97560649They operate on a very different use case than most ranged units. You want them in the center of the table to act as a Fuck you Come get me. And since they're still orcs they can survive fighting light infantry fairly well. And since they can be skirmish they have basically 2/3 of the table coverage, especially from a hill top. Goblins don't do that.
>>97560649>>97560380Giving regular boyz with shields bows is literally free so you might as well if you're giving them no other weapons.
>>97558870It was just a cheap tapestry my friend got from Amazon
>>97560280Based game poster! Thanks for the story!
>>97559942In both cases it'd be a good way to do a few things;shift some undersold kits.get people excited about some more modern kits.I doubt it's gonna be new skellies, but I can hope.though I could see newer treemen or dryads (presumably differently styled to the 8th ed ones) and/or newer chariots (given how spammable they're meant to be be how ugly they are)
>>97559916>Same effectNot really? Obviously a mutilated woman has more of an impact than "a head", its a bigger and more graphic display of power and cruelty. Humans tend to not like seeing abused women, so obviously that sort of banner would get a strong reaction (not to say that heads or flayed skin wont get a reaction, but probably less of one).This is of course assuming theyre "dead dead", and not alive enough to rape after the fact.
>>97560232>another beastbro Raaaroo!
>>97560844Great table! Thank you for upholding the standardWe NEED to raise the overall standard of tables in this hobby badly. That cool immersive table can be made at home, the whole project can be start to finish completely over a weekend. You cannot call yourself a wargamer if you don't put in the effort for the hobby

Newfag here, why does everyone get angry every time that guys talks about making better terrain?
>>97561877Because you touch yourself at night
>>97559681Depends where they are and where they're going. Altdorf is downright tolerant (outside of the occasional race riots) while anywhere in say, Stirland, it's better to not go in the first place. More than that, Dwarfs are usually seen as friends of the Empire, but obviously how far that extends to the individual is up to you and your game. The written adventures linked in the OP mega might be of some help, and at least in 4e they do draw a line between prejudice (just being a general dick, upcharging you, etc) and hatred (will try to get in fights and/or kill you) as two separate psychologies and views for people to have.
>>97557228I dont like posting shit here because I'd be mortified if someone in my area knew I visited 4chan. And the people that I think would most likely visit here are the ones I want to interact with the least.
>>97557178Finished my last cannon, working on some state troops nextGot a 2k game tomorrow vs beastmen
>>97562121The only way they could find out you post here is by lurking here, anon, and what would that say about them? That's MAD, mutually autistic destruction.
>>97560310>>97560314>>97560351My plan is to do some sessions in an OSR for venturing out into the wilderness and dungeons, maybe DCC (which I know is only half OSR but whatever). I will check out Warlock. For the other half of sessions involving investigations, diplomacy or "drama" between characters I am thinking of patching bits from Blades in the Dark and WFRP but not certain yet
>>97562276DCC is super fun, I ran it over two semesters with two completely different groups of players and they all loved it. This thread isn't the right place to discuss it, but I whole-heartedly recommend giving DCC a try. It's not really OSR, and definitely don't post about it in /osrg/, they'll eat your soul for that, but that doesn't mean it's not a great game.
What’s easier - cutting plasticard or just greenstuffing cobblestone bases? I’ve been doing it the plasticard way, and man is that stuff tough. I just cut it out to lines, crack it off and then brutalize my finger shaving its edges. There must be an easier way.
>>97562276WFRP4e has decent wilderness rules now with Deft Steps Light Fingers book C7 released, the problem the system has is being rather bad at Dungoen crawling imo
>>97562295Thanks, I will bring it back to topic by mentioning the setting, I want it to be Estalian press-ganged sailors sent off to the colonies. Weird islands and trade cities
>>97562276Plundered Vaults and Karak Azgal (both for 2e) have some good dungeons. Castle Wittgenstein from Enemy Within is also a classic.
>>9756231I think you should use milliput or greenstuff for that sort of thing. Plasticard is really more for larger scale stuff, cutting it up in to small pieces to make cobblestones just seems inefficient and painful. You can also shape putty however you want, so making potholes or other kinds of damage to the stones would be much easier.
First of my 30 Graveguardclose to finished. I really enjoyed painting this guy. I will probably add some glow to the eyes and glaive via that tesseract effect paint. I am also enjoying the fleshy red colour. What do you guys think?
>>97562311Green stuff is probably easier. Theres also rollers you can use with textured patterns for stuff like that. You could also use some foam instead.
>>97562530Looks decent so far
>>97562543What would you improve on?
>>97562667shoving it up ur bum after its been getting pounded with nuln oil as lube.
>>97562530Looks great! You have to screenshot your photos and post the screen otherwise it'll flip. 2026 and this picture flipping shit still happens. Wild. Also don't mind the resident troll.
>>97562667Highlight the gold more.

>>97562716>fantasiesIts a technique. Learn to apply thyself. The body is a tool, do not deny yourself its purpose.
>>97561877People dont like elevating their standards in the warhammer circle. Its an awful circle.
>>97560575>reddit
>>97562530It looks very good! But I would also echo the guy about the gold. But I would bring it down a bit darker with a shade and then highlight with the base gold again before a final lightest highlight.

>>97561877Truth be told I genuinely don't understand their reaction. My criticism is meant to be constructive to try and make this hobby even better and they writhe and convulse when I encourage them to actually hobby. It really seems like a lot of these chuds actual hobby starts and ends at list building, because they seethe and shid themselves when I suggest we take the best elements of fantasy and incorporate some the high standards from historical wargames into our fantasy games. Genuinely, WHY would anyone not want their battlefield to be thematic and IMMERSIVE? Is it autism? I don't know, I have yet to figure it out
>>97563235I would honestly want to play this. I wonder if ships are easier to build than warhammer shit.
>>97563239There are dozens of full size 28mm ships you can just buy for historical purposes. It wouldn't be too hard to add some army specific greebles to them to make them WHFB compatible
>>97563235You know why, or at least you've been told why at least once.You don't play the game we play, you don't collect models for the game we play, you don't even know the rules for the game we play, yet you insist that we're doing it wrong and that we should abide by your way of doing things. Why would we? Why should we, when you insult everyone and are generally not a pleasant person? Yes, nice tables are nice. No, you don't have the right to shit up a thread for a game you don't play to tell us how to do things. When people post games, you insult them. When people don't post games, you insult them. You've done more to harm the perception of historical wargames and wargamers and the nice tables you seem to love so much than a thousand compfags ever could. You've sullied the name of two beloved sculptors, you know that? People can't even talk about the models they've sculpted, both during their time at GW and afterwards, without having to apologize for your existence.Just go away. You aren't wanted here and any good you could have done has been undone by your own behaviour.
>>97563320Case in point:
>>97563355Go play a game of warhammer fantasy with a real person before typing anything else. Your opinions are not valid until you do that. Goodbye.
>>97563320Meltdown alert
Calling it done, barring some minor highlighting and cleanup.
>>97563381NTA but he’s absolutely correct. Go away and don’t come back unless you decide to start acting like a normal person and not the personification of spiteful vitriol.
>>97563493That looks incredible. Genuine question, why are the inside planks not painted? Is that a historical thing I’m not aware of? Like they only painted the outside because they only cared about the impression it made on others?
>>97563508My reasoning is that the paint job is just to make it identifiable at a distance to friendly troops, and that they wouldn't bother to paint the interior for the same reason you don't paint the back of a shield.
>>97563517Oh yeah fair, that makes sense.
>>97563235You don't post your gamesYou don't post your terrainYou don't post your minisYou don't post your fluffYou post the work of others and act like it makes you better than people that actually engage with the hobby. Post your game on your immersive table.
>>97563235Where do people even get these ships and buildings?
>>97563894Stop replying to yourself you yellow rat
>>97562142Very cool, did you make that board to display the cannon specifically?
>>97558004Very fine anon, my last game was a 2k skaven v chaos in late January.I certainly wouldn’t wish playing skaven without movement trays on my worst enemy, but for a smaller scale clash like that it is very pretty.>>97558113Just paint em rusty, friend. I believe gigantic spawns of chaos are quite good rn so perhaps get 2 of your large favourite nurgle models and add them for theme.You can kitbashed marauders, chaos warrior and plaguebearer parts to make some really cool forsaken or nurgle marked characters.Those ogre sized chaos nurgle guts? Chaos trolls or ogres!
>>97564027Kino. I think out of all general themes of neoprene mats the grassy ones look the best.
>>97559499It's a great kit
>>97558117Yes, pretty much. This 'win with cheese' has been encouraged the last few decades by GW using it as a method to boost sales - their constant fiddling with the stats of figures that are going out of production and powerboosting each successive new model making it more powerful and cheesy than the model/version/faction it is replacing. Most 40k players, brought up on this and which hold tournament play to be the pinnacle of gaming, consider cheesing it as the only way to play and get confused if you try to introduce fair play, plausability and common sense to the game. The fact that the entire game was just a silly made up parody of scifi media and wargaming doesnt help either.
>>97561877Jealousy, spite and laziness mostly, the realisation that if they plop an unpainted half assembled army onto a flat green table, they are a casual. Many people are like that, you put effort into whatever you do and it's easier for the casuals to try to tear you down to thier level, instead of putting in effort to learn and improve themselves.
>>97563894They make them? Buildings are easy to do, just grab some food containers or carve a block of expanded foam, decorate with card and paint it up. This may be more effort fhan some are willing to give to terrain, but it can be fun and you can learn some new modeling skills. Here's some buildings I did for WHFB, 40k, gorkamorka and RPGs.
>>97564809damn, blurred, here's better pic.
>>97564769>JealousyHe's never posted even a single model, let alone his own table. What is there even to be jealous about?
>>97564809Some fantasy buildings made from expanded foam.
>>97564821What is this insistance that you have to only use GW models when playing a GW game? I've played entire games using rules from one game with models from others and had a great time doing it. I know GW want's all their gamers to be living adverts for their products in their shops and tournaments (like how Mcdonalds don't like you eating a KFC in their joints), but in the privacy of your own homes, you can use what the hell you like.
>>97564809A better shot of the foam buildings.
>>97563235I like how all the players are wearing historical gear. The palyers themselves are part of the display for each other. GW has those costume parades, but do players ever dress up like their armies? Might not be appropiate for slaneesh players, I suppose, but could add to the atmosphere occasionally. Would it be cringy?
>>97564839Where did I say anything about gw models?
why is every thread lately a competition on retardation instead of a discussion of games and models?
>>97564999This is a prison of our own making, and we are our own guards.

Tales say they were shaped by the Old Ones alongside many other races, dwelling primarily in the lands now known as Ind. After Chaos swept the world and the Old Ones vanished, the Tiger Warriors were saved by their chieftain, Kamau, who defied Tzeentch and overcame the god’s schemes through sheer nobility and unwavering loyalty to his peopleFollowing this, the highland tribes were led by the first White Tiger to fulfil the prophecy of leading them to salvation, across the Mountains of Heaven, into the western deserts and the lands of the Iron Dragon. Here, they shaped a life - and a legacy - on their own terms. Their allegiance to the Iron Dragon, is absolute, but it exists alongside a far older devotion to the White Tiger, and their god, Kamau. This dual loyalty gives them a culture that sits just slightly outside the rhythms of everyday Cathayan society; they’re part of the empire, certainly, but proudly marked by their own traditions and ways of warBecause of this, their place within the armies of Cathay is a fascinating one. Zhao Ming’s forces have always attracted a wide array of mercenary companies, and the Tiger Warriors are a natural presence among them. Their duties are as varied as their heritage: guarding long-distance caravans across treacherous routes, holding strategic outposts against whatever the world throws at them, and, when called upon, marching to support other provinces. Sometimes that’s at the request of the Iron Dragon or his siblings, and sometimes because Bhashiva herself demands itIt should come as no surprise that the Tiger Warriors stand implacably against Chaos and they harbor a particular hatred for the schemes of Tzeentch. This enmity is also held for the Beastmen herds that have long plagued the mountains and jungles they once called home. For the Tiger Warriors, these foes aren’t just threats to Grand Cathay; they’re affronts to the very lands and traditions their people have fought to protect for generations
>>97565345>>97565350At last, more enemies to be vanquished with the might of the Empire's knights!
>>97565345As head of the Tiger Court, Bhashiva stands as one of the mighty Lords of Shang‑Yang – a mercenary sovereign to whom every Tiger Warrior commander ultimately bends the knee. Though she bears the revered title of White Tiger, hers is only the latest chapter in a legacy far older than her name.The first White Tiger carved her destiny in heroic fashion, guiding the highland tribes across the towering Mountains of Heaven, through blistering western deserts, and into the lands ruled by the Iron Dragon, Zhao Ming. There she swore fealty to the Western Master, forging a bond that has endured for centuries. Each new White Tiger rises to the mantle of the last, renewing ancient oaths and stepping into a legacy older than most kingdoms.No records exist of how many champions have risen. What is certain is this: the White Tiger appears whenever the tides of Chaos surge. Each time they take up the mantle, they once again lead their people into the heart of the Everchosen’s armies, driving the Tiger Warriors straight into the storm. Through these countless cycles, the White Tiger achieved what few beings of any age can claim - to have stood in battle against both Asavar Kul and Archaon>>97565350Tiger Clawspeakers serve as the wizards of the Tiger Warriors, worshipping the old Indish gods - chief among them Kamau, the Tiger God. Their magic leans toward the Wind of Beasts, channeling the raw, untamed strength of the wild. In battle they can swell the ferocity of their own warriors or summon savage creatures from the Mountains of Heaven to fight at their side.Unsurprisingly, faith also runs deep among the Tiger Warriors. Every one of them believes that without Kamau’s protection, the Chaos Gods would rise to enslave their race once more. For the Clawspeakers, that belief is more than tradition - it is a duty they carry into every spell cast and every battle foughthttps://community.creative-assembly.com/total-war/total-war-warhammer/blogs/94
>>97565345Total legend victory
>>97565380So their reverse D&D Rakshasa?
>>97565388>wizards of the Tiger Warriors, worshipping the old Indish godsWouldn't that make them Warrior Priests like characters instead then?
>>97565345Cathay was a mistake. Remember when all we knew about Cathay was that it was full of chinamen with cool swords and fu manchu mustaches? Now look at what evil has been wrought.
>>97565350A bigger version of that image
>>97560575>>97560702That's something. I am split though if to include the arrer boyz + spider, cause I tjink with decent dice I could tear chunks out of a cavalry unit before contact (two shots max before contact).Bolt thrower I have been told is a waste but I feel that utilising it as a threat could do wonders. Others have said grab a 3rd troll instead. I know this orc army is not gonna do half as well as my chaos army which finished 3rd lqst but would like to end up mid table if i can help it.
My god modern Warhammer is so fucking gay. Watch as the devs shoehorn Reddit Ice Bears and Tigermen into the before any classic faction. Fuck TOW fuck AoS fuck 40k. Total paypiggy death.

>>97565345Cathay continues to be designed like a totally different series
GW articles about the Tigermen, along with Concept art, give off more of a Roman gladiator vibe than a India/China one >https://www.warhammer-community.com/en-gb/articles/nj7lekk5/tiger-warriors-revealed-new-units-announced-for-total-war-warhammer-iii/
>>97565565This is genuinely the most homosexual thing I’ve seen gw produce. They really want the bara audience with this.
>>97565572They also want Cathay not to be Grimdark, at least in aesthetic, which I don't think works for Warhammer.
>>97565572>anon sees big tiger warrior>thinks about homosex
>>97562971tow already renamed malekith malerion as well, there's no problem
>>97565583the first thought is tony from tony from frosted flakesthe next is how fucking awful furries are also tell me the chest isn't so weirdly pronounced.
All they had to do was to rip-off the Charr from Guild Wars and make them a slightly more sane and domesticated Beastmen
>non-chaos beastmenAbsolute cringe. GW can only ruin everything.
>>97565572Good, Warhammer is a homochad setting, girls make everything worse>elves have girls>are worst factions>add girls to Bretonnia>now ruinedWe need more bara factions, not less
>>97565440>>97565345these designs feels so boring and unimaginative, they look like they're out of a 2010 korean mmo and they want to send me on a quest to slay 50 slimes for 10 xp and a potion
>>97565609would make sense why the dragon lady looks alot like a guy
Furries are absolutely creaming themselves right now
I know its probably just autisum on my part but non-chaotic beastmen pisses me off infinitely more than female custodians or female space marines.
>>97565388So, both white tigers we can read about are female and the latest is centuries oldthere there must have been numerous young and curvaceous tigresses too
>>97565345Warhammer the Old World?More like Warhammer: Grand Cathay and also some disgusting W*stern scum who only exist to be styled on, also let's release Mist of Pandoria, that worked out well right
>>97565654>a mix of animal and humanoid has been canonically defined as an abomination in the setting for years>it is a distinctive mark of chaos corruption, opposite in every way to the design that the Old Ones wanted for the world>ackshually it turns out that the Old Ones had created heckin wholesome spesshul chungus good beastmen that opposes chaos !!!GW no longer care for tis lore>inb4 but muh what about Lizardmen ?they're the exception that proves the rule
this is gay furfag shit huh?>>97565436agreed…how are gay bara furfag tigers and chinese people rated to THE OLD WORLD!?!
>>97565654them being made by the old ones is a tale, not the factfacts are that they were chaos early on until they broke off and keep fearing becoming slaves to chaos again
>>97565701Because they're ON the old world?
>>97565706this is the old world
Huh. I could have sworn that the Empire also has a colony in Lustria.Bretonnia has one, but the best realm of the Old World doesn't.
>>97565345>>97565350I was actually expecting these guys for Ind if ever, assumed they would work on the actual Chinese stuff first with the rest of the Dragon siblings or the Monkey king and his monkey warriors if they wanted some furry in this
>>97565654GW literally doesn't care about it's fans or lore, because the trannies working at the company now are not the people who created it. At what point do we stop considering GW to be the "official" authority on Warhammer? Because at this point a large number of the fans have been involved in Warhammer much longer than the people working at GW. I'm tired of pretending the modern corporate entity known as "Games Workshop™ invented Warhammer, because they didn't, people invented Warhammer, and those people are no longer working at GW. That's why I don't consider nu-lore official.. because the people who wrote it aren't the creators of Warhammer, they are just prancing around it's corpse
>>97565726ind is not being made a faction, it's just going to be stuff to add to cathay
>>97565721Zoom out broThe Old World is the old WORLD
>>97565345If these had been revealed for AoS in 2016 /tg/ would have had a meltdown so massive it would still be ongoing today
>>97565345I still can’t get over how fucking gay this looks.
>>97565722You've been playing too much total war anon.I do think there's a tilean port or something up in the isthmus.
>>97565722The only colonies I can think of in Lustria that are vaguely Empire related are Port Reaver and Swamptown.
>>97565792aren't those lawless places?
>>97565728The anons ITT aren't grogs, they're all nuHammer fans that migrated over to this general from AoS and 40k after the release of TOW. Most of the pre-TOW grogs that kept this general going for a decade unsupported have been driven away
>>97565856It's a sad state of affairs. There's nowhere to discuss pre-TOW WHF. Reddit is gay and /grog/ is a 40k thread
