Where were you when Age of Sigmar died?
i posted it again lol
@grok is this true
Huh? I could have sworn it was age of Sigmar behind battle tech? I'm gonna check the awg thread
Is anyone surprised. You have to give up your dignity to play AoS.
>>97664670Wow, the gay chinese furry market really carried The Flop World!
>>97664670Brootal
Total Helchuds of Hashut victoryThe cathayan century of humiliation begins now.
If BT sells so well why is it impossible to find a game outside of MegaMek?
>>97665017>posting the edited version
>>97665017So THIS is why GW only considers TOW a specialist game while Age of Sigmar remains their second pillar, just barely after 40k...
>>97665078This survey covers like 12 stores. I wouldn't read too much into it.
>>97665045That's a great question. One would think that there would be scores of people playing it. Do they just collect the boxes to leave the models inside like some anime figure?
>>97665080True, there's no need for further data collection when the cold hard fact is that TWW secondaries (the only people who pretend to care about TOW) do not buy minis or play tabletop games.
>>97665078>barelyLet's not get crazy now.But yeah despite the shitflinging I don't think tow and especially not hh are very close to the core games. That being said they're both probably a lot more efficient that 40k and sigmar, in terms of profits vs investment. Tow has the advantage of 95% of their models already having been designed, so it's "just" a question of firing up the old moulds, while 30k benefits from most of their models being available for literally all factions in the game, the exact same models reach a very vast pool if potential buyers (not to mention 40k overlap).For tow specifically the problem is that after the initial relaunch I think a lot of these kits don't get that many sales, grogposting aside most customers are not very interested in 30 year old models. Tow was actually on one of these lists when it first released, but quickly fell off because of the above mentioned process. That's why they're now actuslly also making new armies, new kits, etc. instead of a handful of resin characters and one off units. Problem is that this is a lot more expensive than firing up your slayers from 1992, but they kind of have to do it at some point if they want to avoid doing another 8th edition where a good amount of people play the game, but nobody actually buys anything because they already have everything they need.In other words, I hope you guys like bears and ice.
Sigshitters getting hyper defensive over how well their product may or may not sell will always be hilarious
>>97665111They have 1 more edition before it gets canned for good so try to see it from their perspective.
>>97665111On this board at least I've seen more non-aos players obsess over how well it may or (mostly) may not be doing than aos ones to be fair.
More people play asoiaf than old world.
>>97664670You fuckers have been saying AoS is dead for a decade at this point.
>>97664670In the Library with the lead pipe.
>>97664670Battletech that high is impressive, back in the day it was rather obscure. Sad that Traveller is still unpopular.
>>97665784It's Catalyst's cash cow, it's the only thing that makes them money compared to their other IPs like Shadowrun.I do wonder how much the new Gundam game will take away from that audience
>>97665784They actually started making good looking minis for it and explaining which rulebooks people should buy. Reminds me of 2015 era GW that actually started caring again, complete with Battletech's own shitty new era that "progresses the setting" to appeal to secondary nerds who own no models.
>>97664670kek. most grogs are going to die before AoS.There's something poetic about that, given that a lot of them have been proclaiming the death of AoS for 10 years now.And again it's AoS selling decently enough while TOW dopped completely off this list.
>>97665877>least salty sigpiggy
>>97665096Stopped reading after “that being said.”
>>97666330K
>>97665096horus heresy is huge in some places, everything except 40k is very locale dependent. Considering how many new plastic kits heresy gets vs the like, 5 total tow gets, I would guess heresy is not doing badly by any metric.
>>97666100what's there to be salty about?AoS is doing well. Spearhead is fun. Models are fun.
>>97666433>everything except 40k is very locale dependentThis is the best way to put it. Every single story has at least 2 40k guys keeping it alive. What's fun is the larger places will have a secondary wargame that is also popular. My favorite one is the Game Universe in Franklin, WI which has a thriving Flames of War and BattleTech community.
>>97666433>everything except 40k is very locale dependentTrue enough
>>97664670AOS is fine at my LGS. Not as popular as 40k, obviously. But its quite healthy and has events/tourneys regularly.
TOW and AOS both suck shit through a paper straw.
>>97667040Truth nvke
>>97665078>just barely after 40k...>>just barely Outside of sigmarines rest of AoS ranges are treated worse than 40k Xeno armies
