What would you guys think about AoS doing kind of like a Universes Beyond type deal? Considering how varied and undefined the Realms are, basically anything can be justified. Would you support it? Not as a mainline product but more like secret lairs. Like imagine 2-3 Star Wars kits dropped for say, rebels. The cross universe appeal is massive.
>>97741121Yeah I think that's a great idea, they should get that out right away. Honestly I imagine there would be no issues from anyone with that idea.Hey anyone wanna talk about ToW
>>97741121It would be the same as when Destiny had a Star Wars expansion. It's weird and feels completely disconnected from previous releases
Reposting for people who may be interested in Cathay and WoC/StD proxies. Both Cathay Battalions have been removed from the webstore, probably for reboxing. And the WoC battalion is also gone after being listed as Sold Out Online since last week. There may not be much time left if you want the older warriors sculpts, and inversely there will probably be new WoC/StD proxies revealed in 2-3 weeks
>>97741143Wrong thread faggot
>>97741121I know this is bait but if anyone's getting crossover stuff it's 40k. Noone cares about darth vader facing off against vandus or whatever. Now darth vader vs, idk, sanguinius or what have you? Plenty of valrakites would love nothing more. that being said I don't think gw is very interested in crossovers like that
>>97741086>TQAnother Kurnothi warband, this one all welves rather than welves + elftaur
>>97739646...oh...well, at least it'll hopefully make the slann head terrain cheaper
>>97741152WoC and StD are literally interchangeable
>>97741173(You)
>>97741173Wicky wicky wild west and sexually transmitted diseases are the same thing
>>97741086>tqI'll forever keep spamming this stupid warband idea I had when appropriate.I'd personally also like to see spiderclan, but on the other hand we already have like 5 or 6 gits warbands.
>>97741228>I'll forever keep spamming this stupid warband idea I had when appropriate.Have a "chaos undivided" gang made up of a bickering band of 4 daemons would be the funniest shit ever. Like one cultist and 4 lesser daemons who all look pissed off to be there.
>>97741247Psychopaths would be painting the gang colour swaped with eachother
>>97740902Woah sweet looking belakor bro. Feel like I don't see slaves too much around here, despite being quite popular in general.>>97741247Sounds like something like that could have fun gameplay in underworlds proper too.
>>97741330Thanks anon, biggest fucking mistake I made with Be'lakor was putting the chains on before painting. Made everything considerably more of a pain in the ass than it should have been. (Also getting a pre-owned one where he doesn't have the open mouth)
man, warcry is fun. what is your favorite model that is playable in warcry?
>>97741228Something about khonregors are just bad. Sticking his symbol on some mail and calling it a day is just lazy, even by Khorne standards.
>TQSpiderfang or GitmobCoS with a mage, archknight, and some variant steelhelm sculpts or something ideally Duardin or Aelf Pestigor warband with a Beastlord and Shaman to flesh the subfaction out
>>97741354Yeh, while old Pestigors had a vision that transcened decades the metal Corn-gores were basically always shit
>>97741354I feel like the most logical conclusion for Khornegors is just making them gorillas with goat hooves
>>97741358>GitmobSince they lready have a wolf one we gotta get creative>unit leader is the bigger wolf unlike the single wolfs from before>2 of the random glier guys from the catapult (here the boss wolf pulls them like kites)>fast squig pet
>>97741403>Mork Mork!
>>97741352Hunters of huanchi are great, some of my favourite sculpts. Even the little pet pterodactyls are great.>>97741354I like the models but I agree they're not particularly khorne-like.>>97741358It's odd that CoS don't have a standard warband that's just a smattering of normal units. Maybe once they get their new wave? Y'know a steelhelm, a fusilier, a marshal, a gallant, and a gargoylian or something.
>>97741471for me it is the hound of wrath from the claws of karanak. its just such a good model. i'd even go so far as to say it is the best khornate model outside of heavy armor.
>>97741352Far and away the best. not mine but I like the paint scheme
>>97741352I haven’t had a chance to play with them yet but obelisks are cool.
>>97741121>What would you guys think about AoS doing kind of like a Universes Beyond type deal?I'd sooner eat shards of glass and rusty nails. Cross over slop is a cancer to anything it touches.
>>97741152Really hate to see that this thread has devolved into the same cranky douchebaggery as /wfg/
>>97741543Tbf that one anon acts like some sorta faggy spikey bitz with terminally online-ites.
>>97741533Seems to be working for mtg
>>97741121I think it would make more sense for the of world, considering how chaos is more wacky there or something right? It’s a destroyed world so they might as well do what they can to prop it up.
>>97741500Never liked the claws of karanak personally. Probably my least favourite warband. To be fair I also dislike the weird frills on the flesh hounds themselves. Where do they even come from?
>>97741618>Where do they even come fromIt’s from one of those weird reptiles. Frilled lizards I guess. Never understood the motifs for Khorne desu. Scorpions, dogs, skulls, uh…I guess spiders with Aos, probably all have an Arid feel to em but beyond that I’m not sure what to make of them. Then again supposedly there is shark imagery that relates to Khorne but I’ve never bore witness to it.
i'm converting the longma from cathay to serve with my stormcast right now
>>97741709Based. Cathay models are incredible. When I finish my current project im going to do a non mudcore CoS army that's just Cathay sculpts.
>>97741728i'm making it more in line with a kirin than the longma, though, namely by removing it's wings
>>97741738Kino, the whiskers are my favorite part.
>>97741749i'd send a pic if i was near it right now, but im also making the whiskers way longer with greenstuff
>>97741709Most auspicious
>>97741769GOD i wish i couldve gotten this set before it got squatted, i love the little spirit dragoni mean fuck id even settle for a good scan, just cut it off digitally and print them to go in lanterns and shit
>>97741755>>97741738Holy based. Personally I’m not a fan of Cathay at all, but youre basically fixing all my issues with the longma (basically the second worst sculpt in the range after the dragon) so I’d be interested in seeing it. >kirin Pretty sure Malifaux has one, but it’s a kino concept either way.
Stop trying to tempt me I can't spend money right now.
>>97741558The "wrong thread" posts that occur on both generals whenever anyone posts a model from the other game are a recurring malaise.
>>97741801If you actually want Cathay models >>97741143the current battalion is probably going away to be replaced by a worse deal. So if you have them in your local stores or online where you can get it delivered. Might be a good time to buy.
>>97741790i like kirin a lot so i was excited to see the longma since it's essentially just a winged onewho's malifaux
>>97741776Look around at your lgs'es, you'd be surprised. I just checked and they still have this specific box. Also good chance you can find it on secondhand websites, lots of sacrosanct available there.
>>97741843i live in >>>>>>>>>>>>>>portland so any LGS is rather busy and gets picked clean sadly
Actually now that we're on the topic, what do (or did) you guys think about sacrosanct? Personally, I thought they were the worst of the 3 or 4 stormcast aesthetics. Besides the castigators and this guy I really didn't like any of them. Just not a fan of how the tabard made their silhouette look, and I also thought their anvil shaped hammer looked bad. I did appreciate their iconography, the standards on the evocator kit has some really cool iconography for example.>>97741854Is there a big aos scene in portland? I'm a yuropoor so I'm not well versed in american city stereotypes or anything like that.
>>97741885>is there a scene for the most LGBT friendly Warhammer setting in the most LGBT friendly city in AmericaAre you joking?
>>97741885appears to be bigger than most other places actually, i see more AoS than i see 40k, at least at the LGS i frequent most(now a TOWfag will say "erm this proves AoS is GAY)
>>97741903>>97741906
>>97741903i shoulda INB4'd itwe're less gay than LA thoughbeit
>>97741885anyways, that aside i think they're cool, i wish we had just gotten non-fatcast remakes desu, the riders and spellcasters were all cool as shit, i actually do have the evocators on dracoline, i bought them right before the announcement that they were being squatted happened, it was the next week
>>97741885>what do (or did) you guys think about sacrosanct?Personally? They were my favorite up until the 4e redesign. Now that goes to ruination (for now, as much as I like them I’m waiting for it be expanded on beyond just hero’s the two units), but no matter what they had the best mount imo. If they were to ever make it back in to Aos I would hope that they ditch the heavy armor and just lean into that scholar look and be battle mages.
>>97741903Like I said, I dunno anything about ua city stereotypes. I don't know which one of your cities is more or less gay than the other.
>>97741963They’re all pretty gay with Florida unfortunately being the gayest.
>>97741903>>is there a scene for the most LGBT friendly Warhammer settingAnon this isn't the 40k thread
>>97741885I'm also not a fanI'd say thunderstrike>fatcast>vanguard fatcast>sacrosanctFatcast has some sauce and I do miss the art deco but just proportionswise thunderstrike is a big upgrade.
>>97741885>what do (or did) you guys think about sacrosanct?They're my favourite "version" of the Stormcast tbhon. Battlemage Lightning Angels is FUCKING AWESOME idea.
Mods are away post games!
>>97741086Saw this on art station, this would be cool.

>>97742212>>97742199>>97742218
>>97742191How do you play gargants with no paint?
Why do they have two datasheets on wahapedia?
>>97742725Maybe scourge of ghyrans sheet? Some models for every faction got a separate profiles that let you picks dn choose one of them just to experiment with some factions.
>>97742725One is their default. The Scourge of Ghyran one is from the newest seasonal rulebook.
>>97742412Flesh is intimidating unless it's contrast slop tbf
>>97741086>Assuming we really are entering the final stretch of underworlds, what warbands would you still like to see?Warbands with mounted units. Fireslayers with a Dwarf mounting a dragon. Khorne legion dude mounted in a chaos beast. Stormcock mounted in a griffon. Skaven mounted in a big Rat, etc.>>97741121>Would you support it?No.>>97738961Games workshop always sold decks/cards separately since Shadespire (Leaders, Power Unbound, Silence Manace deck, both Mortis Arena, premium card pack, promo decks&card packs, essential card pack, and ~7 rival decks after Harrowdeep).What is happening in 2.0: Big boxes comes with 4 (embergard) or 2 (spitewood) unique decks. Those decks are good and had broken cards comparated with the 5 separately sold decks.To play 2.0 you need a Big Box for the map (decks & warbands). If you have a big box and you buy a new individual warband you don't need to buy a deck.Only try hard players buy more than a single separately sold deck while not having lots of warbands. It is that simple.GWS knew decks sold well because of past sales in 1.0 (it really did sell well). The thing is: 2.0 is shit, has shit and oversimplified rules and doesn't really support all the warbands of the game. That is why there is less people playing in tournaments and in stores overall.GWS probably know 2.0 is fucked that is why all the rumors about 2.0 being abandoned (aside from shit looking warbands). Underworlds either gets a 3.0 version or is mergend with Warcry into a new game.
>>97741143literally who proxies with WoC trash
>>97742830Oil paints or just do brown base and then go dry brushing with light tones.
>>97741354In Blood Bowl they're dog-bull-goats; they should just do that in AoS too.
>>97741247I always wanted that kind of thing for a daemons Kill Team, with the undivided guy being a Forge of Souls taskmaster who's trying to tard-wrangle a bunch of bickering idiot daemons into paying off their debts. Could work for Warcry too.
>>97743079That sounds too cool and fun for 40k. Definitely put it in AoS.
>>97743073But that would be cross game model ideas, which is verboten in GW or some bullshit
>>97742412Cause I am intimated by painting and love building and playing the game
>>97743179I'm not saying to port the gors wearing football gear directly into AoS...
>>97741121Absolutely notI would drop this and go all in painting busts
Order of the furrow soon™
>>97743342Literally just freeguild cavaliers.
>>97743363And you’re literally just a meat puppet with a skull template underneath it.
>>97741885this design would be great with no helmet on a modern stormcast design. I never liked those fat pointy pauldrons.
>>97741769>>97741885>>97741951it's tragic how many really cool accessory bits and general designs got lost because fatcast was deleted. If they had remade most of the old units in current SCE proportions they would look great.
>>97742915Oilslop
>>97743539You don't do oil wash?
>>97742191Paint yer models!Pretty fun table though, very nostalgic
>>97743073Idk this guy isn't particularly exciting
Dumb question, but does anyone have any flames painted in reverse, ie: darker at the base and lighter at the tips? Trying to google reverse fire paint isn't getting me any useful results, and I want to know what it'll look like. I was thinking about painting my Dominator Engine flames in that manner using a rich red/maroon Mulberry sort of colour
It's such a shame GW dropped any kind of valid support for Warcry. The game is so much better than Kill Team but it clearly doesn't attract enough mindless consoomer drones to make GW give it the attention it deserves. There is a lot of small boxed sets collecting dust in LGSs that would make fun warbands to play with but I can't justify spending $50-60 on random findings like a Mortevell's Helcourt in my local store only to see it not getting any action and staying on the shelf of my cabinet forever.
>>97744285Kill Tram is irrelevabt here, Spearhead is the thing that ended Warcry, because it's the same general thing (small game box set) without a need for new models
>>97744293>Spearhead is the thing that ended WarcryYou couldn't be any more wrong. Warcry was in decline long before the 4th edition launch. On top of that, Spearhead is not the same thing neither in general nor detail considering that lisbuilding is a vital part of Warcry experience.
>>97741167I just don't get it.
>>97744303>Warcry was in decline long before the 4th edition launchBefore 4th Warcry was getting the quarterly Ghur updates and only stoped when Spearhead was being developed
>>97744320>3 pity bands per year and no real extra content available outside of limited-run fomo boxes is being considered support now2023 was the last year that could be considered okayish for Warcry.
>>977443434th came out in 2024, so a self own there
>>97744293Spearhead is nothing at all like Warcry.
What's the rumourslop for adepticon? >>97744320Warcry was set to get a new edition going by the standard 3 year rule in Autumn 2023, which is when the game died - having a burst in October and then nothing until April 2024 before it ended releases. We know Sam shifted to developing Spearhead for 4th edition around then. which would track a delay as the project lead but he left GW after that and we only got rules support late last year, addressing a backlog of new releases that usually gets Warcry rules support. We'll probably get Warcry 4th this Autumn
>>97744408>What's the rumourslop for adepticon?lumineth underworlds band, wind themed, with a small elementalcities of sigmar release wave, maybe the spearhead against clan eshin instead of the big wave with the cogfort, maybe botthat's it
>>97744320https://www.warcrier.net/docs/releasesBefore 4th Warcry got one release in April, it was dead
>>97744372>smaller scale game using main game models that can be sold in pre-made out of box ready forcesIt's the same niche
>>97744488Yeh tht was when they already designed Spreahead behind the scenes and had it ready for 4th launch
>>97744320>quarterly Ghur updatesWE'RE STILL IN GHURI'M NOT GETTING OUT OF THE GNARLWOODS UNTIL WE REACH THE GODDAMN SHIP WE'RE NEVER LEAVING GHUR
>>97744358>2023 was already lacklustre and showing the game is in decline>4th launched in July 2024>Somehow Spearhead is responsible for shitty release schedule since 2023Spearhead was indeed a Warcry killer if we assume GW deliberately botched Warcry releases to kill any interest before the introduction of Spearhead.
>>97744532>2023 was the last year that could be considered okayish>shitty release schedule since 2023Nice to see you instantly backpedal when you get caught, very honest
>>97742191> Beautiful painted orcs> Disgusting grey tide SoBWhy are gargant players the worse They have the fewest models to paint and they can't even do that
>>97742830No you are just a lazy faggot. And contrast slop looks better than they grey bullshitPlus there are a million skin tutorials online, you are just a lazy faggot>>97743190> I LOVE building, just not PAINTINGLazy faggot
>>97741121Absolutely mega fuck off your granny for even putting that shit idea out there.
How autoinclude is Urak Taar for chorfs?This ability seems pretty crucial desu
>found a little hole in the wall lgs in a random city while waiting on train connection>obviously like 99% card game oriented but do stock a decent amount of warhammer which noone buys>bunch of commemorative models still available>no half kingFuck, he keeps eluding meAlso had an old lord celestant I was tempted to pick up but €30 for a single mini I can't justify out of principle. I'll check on ebay or whatever, I'm sure I can find one in decent condition for like half that.
>>97744653Half King isn't real. It's a mass halucintion
>4E was released almost two years agoIt's crazy to me. The current edition killed any interest in the game in my area except for Spearhead for the first few months. The lack of any narrative expansion or campaign book for Spearhead made people get bored with it as well eventually. I honestly have a hard time to believe 4E is around for so long already considering how nothing interesting happened since the release.
>>97744673Bro, your scourge of ghyran?
>>97744704What about it? What was interesting about it? Just a handful of formations and updated profiles, nothing to be excited about.
>>97744673Play path to glory, both books are great.
>>97744718What would you consider something exciting then? Like broken realms or dawnbringers or whatever? Because those always come at the end of the edition, 4th is no exception. In the meantime, you got your general's handbooks and paths to glory.
>>97744755My problem is even Path to Glory is extremely mid compared with the content we got in the previous editions. Everything feels samey and bland.
>>97741906no proof needed. Warhammer broadly is always at least a little gay, AoS is just the gayest manifestation of it.Straight and cis people are welcome of course, the community is very open minded.
Goddamnit GW make the Pestigor the free mini of the month, or do a second Warscroll for Pestigors with shields that's an 8 man unit, or something that makes it easy to run these guys. I like them better than the regular Pestigor kit!
>>97744863Same here, them being 8 is really annoying. I love the hammer guy. You do get enough options that I feel like you could kitbash some normal gors easily enough, but that involves randomly having 2 normal gors to spare...
>>97744863learn to use tokens
>>97744987Sovlless
>>97744863>Buy another 8>Buy another 4>field 20
>>97744673I love Gitmob and was praying for a Hobgrot expansion but this edition has mostly passed me by. I hardly care. It's an odd feeling.
>>97745010you wouldn't know what having a soul looks like
I don't feel like going through all his posts but looks like boole is posting a bunch of weird shit, also one of the whitefangs. He edits his posts all the time which is really fucking annoying but from what I can gather:-vermindoom isn't quite done yet with 4th-sotek will show up-azyr breached (finally)-chaos in the 5th edition starter-beastmen are mentioned a bunch, not necessarily beasts of chaos, but beastmen nonethelessYeah weird stuff idk, grain of salt etc etc
>>97745033>beastmen are mentioned a bunch, not necessarily beasts of chaos, but beastmen nonethelessI would say Beastmen are...plausible aside from the lack of rumors about them until recently. Abruptly shoving beastmen over to TOW was obviously a pretty recently decided thing given that GW was obviously doing stuff with them still in AoS.You also have the example of dwarfs, which put the Dispossessed range in limbo but we're getting new traditional dwarfs in AoS anyway, etc etc. It might just be that in the long run all the AoS/TOW split really did was just force the AoS team to dump the old models immediately instead of waiting for the refresh to be ready.
>>97745033Some sort of semi-end times type deal. I wouldn’t doubt actual fluff details are still getting ironed out but they’ve got until December or so before 5th’s core book goes to print. It’s all really strange and maybe we’ll see hints of it with Adepticon. Also Inb4 that retard that posts “OH MY HECKIN SCIENCE” any time rumors are discussed.
>>97745060Maybe, 3rd edition seems like it was a fucking mess behind the scenes, it looks like we might see some of those models pop up anyway.>>97745066Looks like azyr getting breached will be the big narrative background to 5th, if I had to guess based on these rumours. I suppose that might also cause some 40k like great rift shenanigans since azyr is essentially the homebase of half of order.
>>97745066>hints of it with Adepticon.unlikely, unless the new spearhead launch also coincides with some narrative books
>muh azyr>gibs me muh azyrWhy the fuck do we need azyr, when we haven't gotten even 10% of the other realms explored yet?
>>97745212because the worse things get the better the fluff becomes and because gordrakk deserves his win
>>97745227It would be very funny if Gordrakk is the first one who invade Azyr. Archaon & Co have been trying to kick that door down for six hundred years. But then some green retard gets the job done.
>>97745227I think he's going to get cucked by either chorfs or skaven on that front. Letting destruction have a win is unthinkable to gw
battle tactics and core command abilities should be deleted and replaced with spearheads cards and twists systemits such a better system, simultaneously easier and more interesting/dynamic
>>97744653Sucks, but you were right to check that kind of place. Apparently he was only sent to new stores (or maybe stores that only just started stocking warhammer?).
>>97744652It's critical for helping your infantry survive, and helps you net control score advantages in your opponents turn with the war despot or ignoring the first point of damage for anything in a 18' range with the ashen elder. DPP is poorly designed like several other faction specific resources in books that came out recently in that it forces you to take your big centerpiece otherwise your gimping yourself.
>>97745033I got curious and these were the booleposts I could salvage, for those interested. There was also another guy doing a little bit of trolling and pretending to be a leaker saying GW was going to merge all the realms into one solid thing, and apparently boole responded by saying that wasn't the case, but I didn't find any direct quotes of that..I'm just the messenger so don't direct your autism at me. Beastmen coming back as destruction sounds fun though. Someone else mentioned a scrapped morghur reborn model, wonder if we'll see him? Or maybe under kragnos? Anyway, I think this all sounds more vague and sketchy than usual, so take with an (even bigger) grain of salt.
>>97745672this all just sounds like nothing
>>97744863Your chamon pestigor sir
>>97745033>AoS end times being set up Kino.
>>97745712at the absolute very least it seems beastmen are returning in some form
>>97745785Yeah Beastmen being the starter bad guy army for 5E is big news, (if true) even ignoring the rest.
>>97745785where's the beast(wo)men
>>97745809I’d really rather not it being that
>>97745785I am already expecting slaves to darkness to see new kits for warriors and knights and stuff, so that tow and aos redesigned in a coordinated fashion, so beastmen could fit as units added to std instead of a separate army
>>97745635Yeah I like checking out random stores you never know what you'll find. Wasn't expecting to see any commemorative models or anything, but sometimes you'll see good deals for old stuff.
>>97741352This beefy boy will murder the entire board and just not ever die. I love him so much. He once demolished a dankhold troggoth by himself (troggoth couldn't hit for shit tho). Love to toss him at a friend's skaven and just have him make minced rat. Even rat ogors get absolutely FUCKED by this lad.>>97741885My favourite stormcast line by a mile. I think they carried their mage like abilities quite well in the design, the sequitors and evocators are dope designs, I like all variations of the knights incantors, and I very much enjoy the lord on tauralon
>>97745212>>97745227Gordrakk doesn't give a fuck about Azyr, he just wants to meet Sigmar in person to punch him and he won't leave Azyr
>>97744673Personally, I dropped 4th ed after a few tournaments at the start of the edition to paint minis.Getting back to it now, but the game has definitely gone bland and unimaginative. My biggest gripe is how this edition favors elite low model armies with double attacks and complete removal of "fight on death" which helped hoards.Most of the games will eventually boil down to destroying the opponent before mid game, unless both players are really careful
>>97745863This is the underworlds guy right? Dromm's buddy? What do you use them as, their legends warscroll?
>>97744673Can't wait for 5th ed. Especially if they're launching the two year cycle like some retards prophesize
>>97745936>This is the underworlds guy right? Dromm's buddy?Yes
>>97745875>Gordrakk doesn't give a fuck about Azyr>He just wants [to go to azyr]
>>97746020Well yeah, I mean, getting into azyr is just a means to and end for him, I doubt he gives a shit if the skaven get there first or whatever.
>>97745033Kurnothi howl and scream I guess in a frenzied wild hunt but the BoC squatting fluff was that they retreated into hiding after a genocide by parties aligned to chaos gods rather than Morghur or generally undivided, so it could just be a regurgitation of that to foreshadow a complete gavespawn revamp
>>97746020I'm an AC/DC fan. Their only concert in Europe is in Latvia. If i want to see AC/DC am i interested in Latvia as a country?
>>97746136you have an interest in reaching latvia, yes
Are any of the battletomes, post Maggotkin, for 4th edition available yet?
>>97746213Haven't seen them
>>97745936I play him in warcry, so his warcry profile. Take a gander at that motherfucker
>>97746230Oh lol I assumed you were talking about aos proper since you mentioned a dankhold, those things are playable in warcry? Damn.And yeah that's one hell of a statline.
>>97746427>those things are playable in warcryWarcry gets silly with some larger models.
>>97746545I looked it up and there's some bullshit you can field lmao. The arachnarok, mutalith beast, the noble kharibdyss...
>>97746568My redpill was seeing somene play Warclans with like mounted Killaboss (way fucking bigger than the average guy on horse)
>>97746642Yeah those guys are hilariously big compared to normal guys, they're like twice their height, even the foot killaboss is like a head shorter. I know that's kind of par for the course with orcs, but on the killaboss it feels even more extreme than usual. I don't know if that's because it actually *is* more of a difference or if kt's just their baseline unusual and lanky proportions that accentuate the discrepancy.
>>97745227>Lets copy 40gay and fagtasy battles writing with muh grimdark, 5 minutes to midnight setting to cater to niggers who won't touch AoSKnowing that GW are lazy, uncreative faggots this might just happen.
>>97746733Nigga Gordrakk is Order-coded, he's got fuckall to do with midnight
>>97746726That's normal for orcs. It just seems weird because kruleboyz aren't registering as orcs.
>>97745033I told you guys 5e is the last edition of AoS. There will be an end times like event and AoS will and TOW will be folded into one Fantasy setting based on TOW but taking place further in the future. Some armies will not survive the jump.
Spearhead tourney this weekend. Debating between the first ko one with a frigate or the helsmith one. Any thoughts?
>>97746759Go with the one you use less often to make the experiance fresher
>>97744599Damn bro calm down
>>97746753>folding AoS into the flopped specialist game that no one playsWould certainly be a bold move
>>97746752Maybe, but it still feels kinda extream
>>97746752I feel like it's usually not so stark a jump though>>97746753>stormcast get transplanted into towI'm not sure which fanbase would end up the most buttmad at this outcome
>>97746773Stormcast would be one of the armies that would not be making the jump
>>97746780Untrue, Stormcast are getting expanded in TOW with proper subfaction armies finally.
>>97746780They're aos' most popular army, and have the largest range bar none. If any army is making the jump, it's them.Best get your beastmen ready, picrel is coming for them
Can you retards fuck off
>>97746817Stormcast in TOW is a hate crime to TOW.
>>97746823>On a semi-related note, have you guys ever seen any 3rd party stormcast proxies used? Like how there's million of alternative "space knights" designs available for 40k?
>>97746871Not that I’ve seen. Stormcast simply don’t have any appeal outside the AoS fanbase so the market is very small and niche relative to space marine or even generic Fantasy sculpts
>>97742830Layering is a really good way to do it. Once you get the hang of it flesh is really fun to paint.
Beastbros cucked once more
>>97747061go discuss it with the other beastniggers over at /wfg/
>>97747061Obviously Beastmen aren't going to be in the starter they are a TOW army and GW notoriously hates letting ranges be used for multiple systems.
>>97747080They wouldn't be beastmen, they'd be gavespawn of the realms or some shit
>>97747097That’s not going to happen because the whole named character plotline in TOW revolves around the search for the reincarnation of Morghur. SGS cockblocked the AoS team that way.
>>97747221>Beastmen sell abysmally and are deemed not worth wasting time on >They get shunted to the old world so GW can clear their stock selling to the boomrs and make room to focus on factions that sell>This is "cockblocking" the AoS dev teambed time gramps, no one gives a fuck about the fantasy remake plotline or goatmen.
>>97747268In reality the AoS team clearly had plans for them with how prominent they were in 3rd, but then SGS masterfully cucked them and blocked the gavespawn from ever appearing in AoS by making Morghur their focus. Common SGS W, Common AoS L.
Anyone has Warcry books? Might and MadnessHunter and Hunted
>>97746726When i decided the promo Gutrippa champion would make a cool Killaboss i had to build him quite the base to make him closer to the real unit
>>97747061Flip-flopping on who the starter enemy is within like a day seems like a red flag to me but I'll be generous and say that one of them might be an end of edition army release, those aren't particularly uncommon.
>>97747297>in reality [elaborate fanfiction]If TWW secondaries spent as much time painting minis as they spent writing hatefic about Age of Sigmar... well, they wouldn't be TOWddlers in the first place lmao
>>97747061>after all Sounds like Gavespawn, who would be weird looking slaanesh like mutants I guess
>>97747080Has the khazalid refresh been dropped? Did I mistakenly imagine TOW selling the Chorf canon?

>>97749292Cool, not coop lel. Typed too fast
>>97749320Usually boole is pretty direct (for a rumourmonger), this is a lot more vague than he usually posts. Maybe gw is trying to find the leak or some shit, who knows.

>>97750177>thread picYou mean in the OP? That's just some shadespire art, depicts all the warbands stuck there.
played a 500pt game with my dark elves as a learner lesson before this 750pt "tournament" next week (mentioned it last thread)are ironjawz just bad? I killed all his stuff and only lost 7 of my spearmene.g he had 3 wreckaz charge my 20 block of spearmen, kill nobody due to combo of all out defense plus 5+ ward order, and 10 of the spearmen (2 pools as not enough dice) killed all 3 wreckazjust luck?
>>97750249I think ironjawz are considered fine, good even, but wrekkas specifically are probably their shittiest unit. At least the normal version is, I think they had a scourge of ghyran warscroll that was actually really good.Dunno how all of this translates to 500 pts though, things can get weird at those levels.
>>97750249I think ironjawz are seriously crippled due to infantry moving at a snails pace.
where do I find the rules for endless spells? the generic ones

Are the PDFs for 4th edition battletomes for Lumineth, Disciples and/or OBR avaliable yet?
>>97750871>What else is left?Nothing
>>97750972You asked ITT already
>>97751058>>97750871Daughters of khaine and a ossiarch battleforce. Then it’s whatever’s being showcased at adepticon. Which is on the 25th right? Well whatever.
>>97749173That’s really cool.
>>97750871Eye of Terror book and stuff for 40k?but yeah, it's that or AoS Sylvaneth and DoK
>>97747061I for one am glad that it’s not an incarnation of beastmen, at least not in a starter box. They shouldn’t be their own army and should be souped in with slaves if they do return. Also it’s just generally an unexciting faction to try and sell for a starter. Slaanesh is kinda expected to be featured in 5th after how dwarf heavy 4th is going to be.

>>97751300and some Softcover BL releases as well
>>97751300Let's goLooks like the ironscale is also freed from box set purgatory, I don't know if that was announced already but there it is. Lovely mini
>>97751300When can we expect rules to leak? Need to know if I can run treelord spam.
>>97751315So is the branchwych.>>97751327I expect there will be an AoR for that.
>>97751327Man they love spamming these treelords in the battleforces huh. I suppose I should be grateful they didn't put drycha in there again as well.
>>97751399It’s a very fun kit. I already have 3 and I don’t mind running another 9 if I can get an excuse to convert them.
>>97751399There isn't actually much to the Sylvaneth range. you've got the Treelords/Drycha, Kurnouth Hunters and the newer Tree Revenant stuff basically. The Revenant stuff is in the new Spearhead, so all that leaves is the shit that's been in 12k discount boxes already for the battleforce.
>>97751429>There isn't actually much to the Sylvaneth range.>for now…

>>97751581What the fuck is morathi doing in new york
finally got off a long crunch shift but i got overtime for working on a new release, what should i paint bros, terrain or some of the skaven i have left unfinished
>>97751594She’s walking over ‘ere
>>97751600Terrain is probably better to unwind on.
>>97751610probably true, i'll do that
>>97751594It's the classic children movie plotline where fictional character becones CGI and walks around NY with B list white actors

>>97749694I wish I knew
>>97751778Cos has like 10 kits coming
>>97751752Boyd artistic output unfortunately suffered quite under the art department's mandate that all new art be made digitally.
>>97751814It hurts to see how good we had it vs the slop all settings get now. Digital art was a mistake

>>97751830Nta but I think one or two of these kits are multi kits.
>>97749173Holy fuckin SOVL.
>>97751778The cos wave is an actual proper second wave, including probably the biggest "mini" in the game, if rumours are correct.>>97751851Outside of the battle mages I don't think so honestly, again based on current rumours
>>97751796>>97751830Ok nevermind that's a big fucking wave. Congratulations COS on now having possibly the largest range in the game (?)
>>97751851>>97751898Cat and chimera might be thr same kit. Just change the heads on the giant lion
>>97752019The first guy doesn't ride a giant cat, anon. He just has one as a pet.

>>97751964that's still stormcasts
>>97752064With a saddle on its back...right?
What's the final consensus on these gals? Good or bad?
>>97752143i would need to see them irl and maybe paint one or two of them. As of now i think they are alright.
>>97752143They're OK
>>97752143Too much armorToo little skin
>>97752143There's a lot of cope going on, but these are awful and go against the visual identity of what DoK are supposed to be. NuGW slop of the highest caliber.
>>97752143They’re fine. I’m curious what base size they are on.
>>97752143disappointing, redundant, unoriginal, performative
>>97752143You know it's bad when the highest praise seen is " they are ok "
>>97752143No Gucci, please deliver more Monster Girls.
>>97752143>could have all had the sick greatblade >could have had scalemail armour to parallel the snake bodies of other models>could have had multifaced vishnu masks>could have been snake haired>could have had dignified capes for their more static shrine guarding role and a parallel with bat wings of other models >could have had the bodysuits without sculpted details so having them is up to the painter's choice worthless release

>>97752143why make more infantry for dk when there is so much space for blood, snakes and half-monster units still open? fuck, even warmachines are open instead of those terrain pieces...
>>97752332call me paranoid, but when the range rests on top of an infantry unit kit and a shrine kit from whfb, and the new release is an infantry unit and a shrine kit, it might be because they're preparing for a future when said kits from fantasy will no longer be present to act as bedrock for the faction
>>97752332Terrain piece is necessary to replace the shrine kit which is going back to TOW for their DE release later this year.
>>97752369It's not paranoia. With that accidental Sundering leaks scheduled for October, it all starts to make sense.The actual witch aelves will simply silently be present in both settings like Dryads.
>>97752369>>97752372>no model retards thing giant combat model and terrain are the same thing
>>97752436There are reasons to be worried about Daughter of Khaine future then? With ToW getting stuff from it?
>>97752332>why make more infantry for dkThey didn’t have an elite anti infantry unit that could stick around on the board, not that I see it being able to live past a round or two anyways. >so much space for blood, snakes and half-monster units still open?There isn’t really much on that front. They can do the drow-spider/arachne route and that’s it. >warmachinesI guess chariots would be on the table. I wouldn’t mind the shrine getting remade because it’s kinda dogshit to assemble more than 1.
>>97752440We have rumor mongers saying the first legacy factions going back to TOW are Vampire Counts and Dark Elves. We have the Sundering leak. Nothing is confirmed yet officially but it's clear which way the wind is blowing friend.
>>97752451>wind is blowing It’s coming from your ass.
>>97752444>There are reasons to be worried about Daughter of Khaine future then? With ToW getting stuff from it?No, they will simply differentiate the ranges. DoK are safe. Witch Aelves like I said will simply just be silently included in both. Like Dryads are included in both the Wood Elf TOW lists and Sylvaneth but only sold in AoS branding. I imagine Witch Aelves will be the same. But going forward new kits won't be shared.Like I don't think the Blood Hags will ever appear in TOW nor will the snake girls (not counting the Medusa/Shrine kit)
>>97752446>There isn’t really much on that front. They can do the drow-spider/arachne route and that’s it.Hard disagree. Blood golem, animated blood fighters wytches, snake swarms, a giant snake beast, a basilisk elite, half-dragon, half-spider or half- panther hybrids... There is definitely room to work with.
>>97752369Grim
>>97752553God this sucks ass. Like literally losing half the range lol.
>>97752534There not enough demand to work with, khainites are one of the least popular factions in aos, and by a large margin. they have been a placeholder for malerion's elves and will be folded in them soon enough.
>>97752553Ironically this is the one edition where the range has relied on more than just Morathi. Horses, and that one warshrine aor list with krethusa was putting in work.
>>97752593>Malerion boogeyman Yawn, years with this shitty tale. Assume already Morathi leads your faction, shadow elf fags.
>>97752534>Blood golem, animated blood fighters wytches, snake swarms, a giant snake beastSome of this is either redundant or belongs in other armies A panther is kinda retarded, and I think half dragons is kinda…well it would be fine on a very warped take on a dragon. Something like typhon.
Brodd hanches to Grodrakk because Behemat henched to Gorkamorka
>>97751964Stormcast still mog them probably, as do probably some of the bigge ranges like soulblight or std>>97752019Chimera is a big mount, cat guy is two models
>>97752372The bloodwrack shrine is responsible for like half the warscrolls in DoK. I think more likely option is that tow simply gets the older witch elf sculpts and no shrine than that those two are leaving DoK. I could see the shrine also being shared like for example the chaos lord is. But yeah I mean witch elves are a lot more important to the witch elf faction than they are to regular old dark elves. They didn't have the shrine parade float prior to 8th and did just fine.Well, at least until malerion soup happens. Then I could see basic witch elves and co leaving the range.
>>97752143They're boring. I'm not apoplectic over them like some people are, but god are they boring, and I would never buy them. I only want to see new monster-women.
Malerion soon…
>>97752143They're fine. I'll get a box or possibly two. Maybe I'm just starved for new DoK content, because we had barely anything new since release.
the malerion soup fags are the most delusional people in this general since the root king bros lmao.
>>97752726>They didn't have the shrine parade float prior to 8th and did just fine.they had other versions
>>97752795Good so they can bring that one back if they really need to
>>97752795
>>97752795>>97752805SOULOUL
>>97752143Mixed feelings. The armour is generally cool (though I do like that one anon's idea of scalemail) and I like the masks and helmets they come with. I'm however not really a fan of the bidents, the sword of the champion is pure kino and I wish they'd just given everybody one of those.Skinsuits are whatever I don't give a fuck.>>97752784You people said the same for the chorf schizos and yet here we are
>>97752661they were goofs, not goons
>>97752852>revamp of beloved old faction everyone missed>pointless soup with an old world fag no one really cares anymoreok, anon, be prepared for more years of morathi domination over dark elfs
>>97752805Love this one.
>>97752867>>revamp of beloved old faction everyone missedOh, but when I say I wanted them to be more like the old chorfs, I get told that nobody liked the old chorfs and that they weren't beloved at all!
>>97752784>>97752867and you dare call others delusional?
Still waiting for vyrkos to get an expansion.
>>97752892malerion around the corner bro; believe.
>>97752898That would be really cool
>>97752904he's always been
>>97752898That was cursed city, you're not getting anything else.
>>97752927A shame because they have as much potential as FeC.
>>97752933>they could have... a unit of half naked vampires, but with wolf legs... and a varghulf, but with a wolf tail
>>97752953If FeC could become a faction with that... Better Werewolves than Crazy vamps lol
>>97752867Chorfs were a footnote compared to malerion, especially before total war gave them an easy dlc that made zoomers like them. People have been moaning and bitching for the guy since day one.Wait are you the morathifag? Is that why're so upset about the notion of mally coming back?
>>97752898Literally all basic Soulblight kits are Vyrkos theamed
>>97752979i can't care less about morathi or darkcelfs for what matters you call chorfs a footnote, when malerion has been a fantasy and some old faggots wet dream probably since first ed with the image of mutant malekith with dragon wings and the "slaanesh removal" rumours. your pathetic delusion will never happen and daughters of khaine is the closer you will ever have as your designated dark elf faction, is time to accept this truth and stop crying over something that will never happen. let it go.
>>97752999why do you think gw wrote malerion into the background if it's not planning on a faction for it?
>>97752999>daughters of khaine is the closer you will ever have as your designated dark elf factionAren't you forgetting somebody anon?Either way I don't care about either morathi or malerion, I'm happy with my retarded edgy water elves, but pretending he's not on gw's radar is retarded. We've got rumourmongers mentioned them, the whole shabang. They're coming in 5th, I'm willing to bet on it.
>>97753033>>97753048why would james wrote about silent people? or why would write about lady of flesh? or why james do what he does? seriously you are chasing an unicorn for years, good luck with it but dont expect people dont get tired or even react when you mention the faggy dark king for the 100th year.
>>97753033NTA but I've been wanting Malerion for a long time as well. I honestly think him and his faction have been sent back to the drawing board at least 3 times because they can't figure out designs and lore for them or work done on stuff that involves them adjacently doesn't mesh well with the work they'd already done.
>>97752999ntg but this is LITERALLY the type of shit people posted at me when I said chorfs are coming
>>97753060And before that it was skaven. I just genuinely hope beastmen don’t get asked to return.
If they EVER DARE to make a new Elf faction (I'm fine with soup) before doing something about my beloved Fyreslayers I SWEAR to motherfucking God...
i hope DoK just ceases existing entirely, fucking horrible faction for trooners and gooners ONLY
>>97753098>T.MalerionWorry not, baby, Momma Morathi is working hard to give you some candy lol
>>97753109sorry bro, but im a stormcast player>why yes i DO play the Good Guys, how did you know?
>>97753055The man's got a whole realm in his pocket. They gotta handle him at some point, and current gw loves nothing more than bringing shit up from the past. He's 100% coming.
DoK and sylvaneth prices for those interested. The grive guardian is a hefty 57.50 yuros, that's the same as e.g. a brood terror or lauka vai. Blood hags on the other hand are 47.50, which is slightly less than I expected, same price as pestigors. For example namarti are 50, loomie spears and witch elves are 51.50.Battleforces still same price as expected
>>97753247>57.50 yuros, that's the same as e.g. a brood terror or lauka vai.FUCK So that’s nearly $80, I’ll focus on the battleforce first then. Probably a bigger issue down the road because I’m gonna want multiple but I actually like the skeleton of the kit so it’s no chip off my shoulder.
>>97752070How many of those are still in circulation though? I think see some fatcasts, but it's real small.
>>97752143Bad. They're average and that's why they're bad. No one is frothing at the mouth for these models, it's a middle of the road 5/10 design that DoK players will accept because they're not getting anything else.
>>97753264At first glance the fatcast are the ones that are still available, like the dracoth riders or the prime etc. But yeah hard to see.>>97753275Mhm, I'd give them a 6, up to a 7 if it turns out you can paint the cloth as skin without much issue.Leader is 10/10 though, lovely pose and lovely weapon.
>>97753310Yeah the leader is definitely the standout, she mogs the rest of the unit pretty hard.
>>97753275DoK players actually deserve less
Got the new OBR book. It actually has decent new art and some new fluff. It doesn't seem like anyone is talking about that in any of the new books
>>97752143Good
>>97752924BRO is his cock out?????
Has anyone seen the batshitfuckingnuts insanity over at TGA? It’s from Boole, it literally sounds like something some WHFB tard came up with because dear Lord it’s horrid, i hope it’s fake but with his track record…
>>97753568can you give a quick roundup?
>>97753577Basically turning AoS into WHF-lite. Archaon storms into Azyr, everyone dies, Sigmar in particular is brutally killed, supposedly, but before he goes he hits the "merge planets" button and the realms collapse into a single world that happens to be very similar to WHF. Stormcast can no longer reforge, because their god is dead, yadda yadda.
>>97753310>7 if it turns out you can paint the cloth as skin without much issueyou can't. If you look closely you can see there's leather straps, collars, and gaps in the leather part of the model that's raised compared to the skin. They didn't even give painters an out, you have to paint the clothes on. I know a lot of people complained that HoH were the milquetoast version of old chorfs but this seems way more egregious to me. Not enough leather or skin to be sexy, not enough spikes to be edgy, not enough armor to look cool, just utterly middling in every way.
>>97753617It also just sounds mean-spirited towards AoS in general, to the point that even Boole, who never considered himself an AoS fan, finds it extremely distasteful.
>>97753617>WHFB completely collapses in popularity>GW abandons the idea, reboots it with high fantasy weird shit instead>reboot takes off and does pretty well for itself>Becomes more popular as it develops a more distinct identity from both 40k and WHFB>GW brings back TOW as it's own thing>TOW manages to develop a smaller following, mostly thanks to the addition on newer sculpted factions like tomb kings and cathay, and not their old shit>GW pulls unpopular factions from AoS and dumps them in TOW to clear stock>despite all of this, despite every single effort GW has been making to make AoS it's own thing, we're supposed to believe one rumorslopper that we're getting end times 2: electric boogaloo and AoS will go back to being WHFB and SCE lose the thing that makes them uniqueYou'd have to be a sub-20 IQ retard to believe this
>>97753617That said, I'm not convinced it's real. It could be a fake leak, and/or one put out by GW specifically to catch leakers. Like he mentions that a bunch of human armies will be added to Nu-AoS, including essentially Cathay, Brettonia, and fucking Nippon which just sounds increasingly like some deranged Fantasy Tards personal fap folder. Also lore developments pretty much never leak two years in advance for a reason, that shit is usually the hallmark of fake leaks.
>>97753617Sounds retarded, simply put.
>>97753646I don't believe it either, even by GW's standards its too retarded. I think someone is taking Boole for a ride.
>>97753617Fuck sounds fucking horribleHopefully is all just a fanatic and GW is not this retardedI don't think AoS is doing bad for them to give such middle finger to the whole game
>>97753055GW has made way more obscure one-offs into entire factions before in 40k, they could totally make umbraneth or whatever a thing. If I had to guess DoK isn't one of the top selling factions but adding armored dark elf warriors and other stuff would broaden the appeal and they could get a lot bigger in popularity.
AoS is successful product and is already it's own thing separated from Fantasy , the reboot they are "leaking" not only sounds terrible for the whole narrative of this game, it also will mean killing the pillars of AoS universe.There is no way this is happening.
Even if whatever Boole just typed out doesn't come to pass, we're going to be dealing with over a year of shitposting that it could be happening until proven otherwise.
As much as I genuinely have no stock in the rumors for some kind of reverse Pangaea event, the thought does interest me. But solely the thought. I don’t really wish to see it come to pass. Maybe if they still kept the geography unique and high fantasy and not just some Knock off of earth I can be willing to sit down for it. but I’m not looking for another fb. I can barely tolerate tow as it is with its dogshit execution. Also you can’t just show off azyr right when it’s in the middle of its ruination. None of those rumors make sense. As much as I’d like to see a properly adapted Chinese HUMAN faction in Aos, I’d rather not see that if it also means tolerating something dogshit like bretonians, Or araby and ind. Anyways I just hope ghyran and shyish remain untouched. Those are my favorite playgrounds.
>>97753707The ironic thing is that even if it is true, it means the death of TOW even more than AoS. Yeah sure, AoS is getting "soft" rebooted to be similar to WHF and also stealing the Brets and Cathay while they're at it. Doesn't make any sense unless TOW is getting murdered/merged with AoS in the process.
Vampire Coast in AoS after the reboot? I will take it lol
>>97753707Also worth mentioning that the guy went "Goodbye Forever" and deleted his account immediately after posting that nonsense, not exactly a confidence builder.
Newfag looking for something that lends itself to speed paint style paints and isn’t too mechanically demanding in game for an idiot like myself.SBGL?StD?Others?
>>97753784You're gonna be learning your buffs, heroes, and abilities no matter what you play, anon. I think the easiest is either Ogors (who are due for a refresh very "soon") or Sons of Behemat where it's like 5 models that just muder-fuck the table.
>>97753658That would be an excellent way to detect the leaker's source.
>>97753617This sounds like something that would only please the most ardent AOS hater. It kills most of what makes AOS what it is while not being at all close to what Fantasy is. I see very few people who would be happy about this except the most hateful of grogs.
>>97753677The reality is that outside the AoS playerbase the main pillars of AoS/lore of AoS is something that at best is taken with indifference and generally with disdain. They need a reboot that will actually appeal to a wider audience because the setting of AoS is by far its biggest problem. And GW isn't retarded, they realize this. The reboot would be a very wise decision on their part.
>>97753617>AoS End Times is actually going to happen
>>97753866It’s more of a storms of chaos pitch if the rumor is true.
I'm just not looking forward to staring down the barrel of "tick tock" posting for a year or more, or at least until the shitstorm is dispelled.
>>97753866IF it's true, it'll be a double murder, because no way TOW sticks around while AoS becomes WHF rebooted and steals their most popular armies.
>>97753876And the potential armies too.
>>97753876Yeah I am aware but still it's hilarious. All this shit talking about dead games/system/flopped TOW and meanwhile GW is cooking up an End Times for AoS. It's very funny, very bleak, but very funny like In Bruges.
>Sigmar dead
Most of TGA is currently on stage 1. Where are you?
>>97753905Fantasy won. Boole has spoken.
>>97753916Fantasy lost along with Aos if all is to be believed.
I really hope he's having a mental breakdown and not actually leaking/dooming. Can GW be that retarded?
Warhammer: The Old Realms? Warhammer: The New Realms? It can't be a spin off with Age of Sigmar in the title because Sigmar dies.
>>97753932Boole has said some complete bullshit in the past, like his crazy rant about how half the TOW armies were going to be souped that he deleted later and everyone pretended never happened. The more you look at it, the less plausible any of it sounds. He read "PDFs" with all of this information? How? Fucking no one at GW is passing around lore PDF files. He's also claiming to know that Brets, Cathay and Fucking Nippon are all coming to AoS, that's like a 4 year plus forecast of future releases. It's basically not possible for anyone to have the info he claims to have in this case, unless he was being set up.
>reality is so grim that Boole is afraid of going into too much detail to prevent heartbreak
>>97753941>>97753912Denial is a part of the process anon. Remember, it's just a game made by a company that doesn't care about you. It doesn't define you either way. You will be ok.
>>97753938"Warhammer the Last World" if choose to believe this guys ramblings.
>>97753943>version Lmao, it’s clear it’s bullshit
>>97753950>it's realYou guys ready for some grimdark mudkino?
>>97753876Boole clearly said that WHFB aren't going to pay for this at all. I assume that means WHFB continues on as usual and AoS gets turned into The Last World.
>>97753912>Grief Isn't this what happens when something ACTUALLY died? You know like WHFB did and there are people still in stage 3
>>97753961i don't like human factions so why should i care? i didn't like them back in fantasy when they had Estalia why should i care about some shit like nu-Bretonnia? James can't be this stupid.
>>97753977Anon...he's just saying that this move won't convert WHFB fans to Nu-AoS, making it pointless.
On the bright side, this opens up the rest of the Legacy factions for TOW down the line.
>>97753887>this shit talking about dead games/system/flopped TOWSounds like it’s really gotten to you if you kept it rent free.
ToW dead will be even more certain if this is true. The die hard grog fans of such side product will have now to deal with the AoS refugees that will bring whatever factions and models survive this new End of Times.
>>97754004It’s the opposite. It means that the reboot will keep a stronger hold of their established factions and take hypothetical factions that would be for fantasy.
>>97754006Are you going to burn your AoS army or are you looking forward to Warhammer: The Last World?
>Shitpost: made>thread: dragged down
Derailment status: Complete
What if skaven were beavers instead of rats
btw, while we're talking about Always-Reliable Boole, lets not forget that the dude has flip-flopped between the next edition starter army being Beastmen, Slaanesh and now STD (+reboot) in the span of like 2-3 days. A sure sign that he's being fed reliable leaks is changing his entire story every 10 minutes.
Sigmar? Crushed like a child. Nagash? Slaughtered like a dog. Gorkamorka? The Ancestor Gods? MIA
>>97754032The account is operated by a team of people. So yeah.
>>97754011/wfg/ already got a flood of beastmen refugees and it's been a bit of a problem, but I'd say that's more because they're the kind of people who would collect beastmen than it is because they used to be AoSfags.For what it's worth, I hope this Boole fellow is wrong and you lovely people can all keep playing your game. Mostly so I don't have to deal with you animals having to learn how to do a wheel.
>some faggot lies on the internet>TGA and /aosg/ lose their fucking mindscome on, man...
>>97754040>>97753912
>>97754039We are happy without you too, lovely groggy, but GW seems interested in merging our fates (that of a succesful product and a failed one)
Should we rename this general to /tlwg/?
I'll start the Not Nippon army for sure.
It kind of makes sense. If TOW is the HH to AoS's 40k then making the setting more congruous to TOW would make sense. That way TOW is the real historical setting and it strengthens the whole brand. Let's be honest too. Most AoS fans enjoy it for the gameplay and the really nice models. The lore/setting is widely considered the weakest aspect of AoS. So GW probably calculates that they stand to gain a lot more players than they will lose.
>>97753866>>97753887>>97754016>>97754036AoS fans are crying and you're laughing?
>samefagging
Maybe in 6-7 years we will get Warhammer Age of Sigmar: The Old Realms. Like a SGS reboot of old AoS like TOW was.
>>97752143Meh.I am a DoK coomer and they do nothing for me. They could easily do heavily armed DoK that still fit more visually, but these missed the mark.I am converting witch elves to use as proxies instead
Be kind and maybe bring a suicide hotline number for your local area to your next AoS event. Some people are not taking this well.
>>97752143Corporate sanitized witch elves
Whatever ill just make mesbg my main game if this is true. That's been the same for 25 years and it's not popular enough for them to dramatically change anything.
>pages of salt on TGAI'm feasting tonight.
I know this thread is usually slow, so stirring it up is cool and all but fuck.
The whitefang Khazalid rumors make sense now. Regular Duardin ( or I guess just dwarfs now? ) don't fit in AoS but would in a hypothetical Last World reboot.
my dad works at games workshop. he said sigmar has actually been dead the whole time and azyr is actually secretly ran by lizardmen secret police

>>97754011why are you always an esl.
He's right you know.>>97754039Total furfag death.
aosissie sisters, we're even losing skaven to 40k.... it really is over....
It's a good thing I only play Ogors, which are my ogre army from fantasy because gw thankfully never updated anything. Sucks for you, slim.
>>97754039>and it's been a bit of a problemUh, no? How is that a problem?
>dude posts word salad with enter hit 15 times between each post>deletes his account at the end>every post is either the most vague shit ever or actual genuine nonsense>everyone loses their mind for 0 reasontell you guys what, if this is real, i will livestream myself eating an entire stormcast miniature.
>>97754484Yeah Boole was right about everything except this. Also Whitefang liking/hearting his End Times 2.0 comment (that is still up btw) is total bullshit. All the reliable leakers are simply wrong because I don't like this news.
>>97754492do you want to see this guy eat a stormcast or not
>>97754484>tell you guys what, if this is real, i will livestream myself eating an entire stormcast miniature.Screencapped.
>>97753720LIZARDTRINKETSI wish it was september 2018 again holy fuck I miss it so bad
>>97754492it's wrong because it's obviously fucking retarded, GW wouldn't gain anything from squatting this dumb setting or "moving the timeline forward" or whatever else.
>>97754537Maybe if you people bought models instead of just talking about AoS this wouldn’t have happened :^)
i dont care what they do as long as seraphon are around still
>>97754537I mean they're already moving things foward with the Vermindoom and shit like Blighted Wilds, but those aren't retarded, fuck-massive shake-ups to the lore.I'd sooner buy them fucking up 40k more since the edition ends very soon.
>Someone saw an early draft of the April Fools WarCom article and everyone took the bait and panickedLMAO this is funny.
>>97754563>I'd sooner buy them fucking up 40k more since the edition ends very soon.>no steel legion release for armageddonThey already did
>>97754575Is that a marine chapter or a primarch? I don’t remember much of 40k beyond of Dow 2.
>>97754585The guard regiment on Armageddon you smug bastard they replaced them with Cadians and Kriegers.
guys 5th ed will add sex mechanics actuallyits going to be called lovehammer age of romancehas warhammer history ever seen anything like that before? is this really possible?
>>97754630I would pay an untold amount of money to shove my (dice-based) cock into Drycha's Warscroll.
>>9775458540keks got told a subfaction died off screen and they should buy different kits to proxy because GW isn't making new ones for them
A major shake up wouldn’t be unwarranted but I doubt there would be a reboot. Something equivalent to the Fall of Cadia followed by Gulliman and the Primaris Marines seems more apt.
>>97741121>What would you guys think about AoS doing kind of like a Universes Beyond type deal?>hey what if we had GW turn AoS more into Marvel-multiverse slop that makes everything meaningless and takes out all of the stakes out of the setting
>>97753876I think GW is just going merge AoS with TOW/WHF.And that becomes the basis for the setting and game.
MESBG is more likely to be killed off than AoS tbhon.
>>97754830TOW players/grognards would be apoplectic if that happened. They finally got their game back only to have it combined with a game system they absolutely despise.
I just woke up what the fuck is going on?
>>97754910The global wargaming markets are crashing fucking sell everything
>>97753617>try to separate the ranges of your two fantasy games as much as possible>try to make the lore as close as you possibly canThis sounds retarded enough that I can believe it. I kind of sounds like they put the biggest fakegrog aos hater from /wfg/ in charge of the setting and told him he could do whatever he wanted short of actually squatting the thing lmao.>>97753887More of a universe rift thing, or whatever 40keks call whatever the transition 7th to 8th edition was.
>>97754910>chaos invades azyr>archaon kills sigmar>the realms are merged together >slaanesh gets free>5th edition is stormcasts vs chaos>panic ensues everything else sounds like drawing conclusions out of fear, but it really looks like they're shrimplifying the setting itself, removing the parts of the realms that we were never going to explore
>>97754910
>>97754032>the dude has flip-flopped between the next edition starter army being Beastmen, Slaanesh and now STD (+reboot)no, he hasn't, I checked, here's what was said and what people instead heard>you think death is going to be in the starter? I can have you exclude ossiarchs because here's the leak for their next releaseand at this point people were thinking he was confirming that death would be in the starter, just not ossiarchs>beastmen come back, but not beasts of chaos and here people went nuts because instead of considering it might be just one unit in chaos undivided they twisted themselves in a knot trying to imagine how there could be an entire faction that could be beast-men but not beasts of chaos>slaanesh is also backand people assumed it would be about the starters for absolutely no reason
Can't tell if it's 1 guy replying to himself or if anyone actually fell for that shit
>>97754956Destroying mortal realms will barely matter, since GW never allowed the setting to grow naturally. I don't buy "The Last World" name at all.
>>97754956so, it's happening?as if sigmar isn't going to recast himself with a miniature by 6th edition anyway
>>97754984>Honestly, it's way too confusing, so we might as well just say it — looks like 5th Edition might be setting things up for Skaven and Beastmen as the evil faction in the starter setAnd later:>My friend just got off work and sent us a few pictures — very, very, very interesting >Maybe Beastmen aren't the 5th starter set after all>Maybe Slaanesh has regained freedom
Yeh bro we're putting Slaanesh in the starter in 2020s UK.Also we're planning this big chaos lore event next year, but all the models planned for it are order dwarfs and ogors.
>>97755019>>Skaven and Beastmen as the evil faction in the starter setyou can't read that he mentioned both skaven and beastmen and then tell me you thought he flip flopped from skaven to beastmen>>Maybe Slaanesh has regained freedomthat's still not talking about them being in the starter
>>97754956the "nippon" part is what makes me think its complete bullshit, this is shit a total war fan would type
My dad's neighbours uncle works at GW and all this is a lie.What's actually going to happen is Morathi usurps Sigmar and becomes the main driving force of the setting with starters being DoK vs this week's villain of the edition.They are undecided about who will be the main villain of 5th ed but Chorfs are likely.Actual artwork that's evidence for the leak I am sharing
>>97754956This is way too retarded, even for gw. Only reason for end times was wfb sales being a disaster, theres no point in making a soft reset in a setting that isn't struggling. >inb4 towddler cope
>>97755039I'm nta, just pointing out that he has in fact changed his position, in this case from "skaven and beastmen" to no beastmen at all. The slaanesh stuff is also not from nowhere, in another post he stated that he was getting conflicting information regarding the starter faction, be that beastmen, skaven, StD or Slaanesh (heh)>>97755060Mhmyea it's no secret that the setting is the least attractive thing about AoS currently, I can see them trying to change that. Line must go up after all.
>>97754956Taking bets on the placement of the continentshttps://youtu.be/NQzkTZtL1EM
>>97755053I mean, it might all be a buildup to some april's fool joke
>>97754956That sounds fake even to the point of beyond GW badness. Also Cathay and Nippon? That's absurdly joke level wish list fake, especially Nippon. Who's it going to appeal to? The japanese who would sooner buy gunpla than any GW property? Weebs? They'd need an entire line nobody wants.

The TGA panic is fucking ridiculous that dude made up a bunch of shit and people is talking about crying and selling stuff, WTF?
