Ghoul on the chairStormcast with the Minotaur head That’s about it for me.
>>97821349I forgot there was a guy literally holing a minotaur head and was about to tell you this guy pretaning to have hornes is still avalible
Now that we know the setting is being squatted, what are your hopes and fears regarding The Last World?
>>97821349>Ghoul on the chairI still don't get why he got unrealeased art made of him. At leaat show it in the announcment of the limited mini
>comes back to LGSs near you!>runs out before you can get him
I liked the fairy tale vibe underworlds had sometimes had with its art.
>>97821399Was all the box art made by the Asian guy or only Shadespire era?
>>97821404I think it was by the Tze Kun , idk if he was in charge of a majority of the underworlds art but it does seem like had a good hand in it.
>>97821432Tze is such an odd case for me. I expect all off GW to be a very inbreed workforce from Nothingham, at least back in the 2000s, yet here is a guy from Taiwan or whatever
Does anyone have the helsmiths scan? If so, could you please link it.
>>97821394Him.Krethusa needs her sub
>>97821382I really hope the IDK and FS squatting rumours aren’t true
your bait is getting worse
>>97821388I genuinely don’t care as long as they don’t get rid of any models. The lore was pretty bad anyhow.
>>97821463
>>97821482They're not.It's a lore event. Will have literally zero impact on the game
>>97821474Rooks and crows are actually different animals
>>97821616Yeah, one of them is a bird and the other is your stepdad
>>97821382The reality is this is not an dquat but a simplification of the setting, merging the realms into a single planet for mouthbreathers to understand better the setting and port everything is hardly an issue.
Newest Boole rumor drop btw confirms Morathi, Teclis, Tyrion, etc are still around. Tahlia is also still alive and the leader of CoS, there's apparently a historical note that she was "reinstated" recently.
>>97821735That sucks
>>97821735Also there's zero mention of Malerion in the new corebook, apparently.
>>97821735if true, they make the same mistakes when they changed from WHFB to AoS. its just stupid that so many characters are still around after a total world destruction and thousands of years. just because they want to keep those models around they make the whole thing half-baked.and dont get me wrong, Id prefer if those last world rumos are not true in the first place because it sounds like the laziest shit ever.
You're beyond saving spamfag>rumour has it that multiple big models made recently are still sold 1 year from now!!!!!!Fuck off with this desperate attempt to talk about nothing
>>97821786nta but I was hoping thalia would be dead and turned into a generic modelif she's not one of the mortal characters who we're leaving behind then who is? and what lame ass copout are they using to save the jeet?
>>97821575Every edition of every game leads to legending (ie. slow unit loss). A comprehensive lore revamp also has a high chance of leading to slow faction loss.None of this will happen will the launch box, but as tomes begin to release you will see units dropping into legends, and by 6th more than one faction will be gone or merged and the legends will not transit. It is the bargain we agreed to by playing GW core games. Instead of coping, prepare yourself, you have quite a lot of time to get your head around it.
>>97821813>This retard is still trying to pretend Fyreslayers are being squatted>Doesn't know that Fyreslayers are confirmed to be getting new models this edition+expanded with a huge wave of normal dwarves into a big army.
>>97821817tbf they are being rebranded and while a little is persisting it's up the air how much the rest will look like Fyreslayers proper
>>97821820Nigga we already saw the REs of generic Fyreslayer design, stop embarassing yourself
>>97821822Not to mention the one blurry picture we have of anything from the new Dwarf book is a new Magmadroth of some description.
Don't respond to the TWWddler, it just encourages him.
>age of sigmar has been the model of the month multiple months in a row to get people to buy
Average rock/metal concert goer realy is the winning look for those guys
>>97821853Not our fault 40k doesn't releas new models
>>97821329Soon
>>97821862>>97821862The new models are being released to prep the bull for an end times event, if gw squats the whole setting in another 2 years people will have to cope with "cogforts are forever".Though I suppose an unopened cogfort, in 10 years, might be worth 1000 dollars to collectors, but you'd have to sell before GW does Age of Sigmar: Age of Chaos as their version of TOW and re-releases VINTAGE age of sigmar models from 2016, undercutting the resale market on ebay.
>>97821856Looks like a memeber of the Jokerz gang from Batman Beyond.
>>97821869It's the green hair and white make up
>>97821853Why yes, thank you for noticing AoS minis gigamog 40k and specialist games. That must have been hard for you to admit.
>>97821932I just wanted a Red Corsair mini of the month. I don't even know what the age of sigmar one is, they did that darcoaath one last month. Last year when Emperor's Children released I got a Tormentor.
>>97821957Wait they're giving out elite units for 40k mini of the month? AoS can get away with offering chaf
>>97821786Nobody expected the models to be squatted, but previously the rumourmongers had implied some of the named characters would become generic models instead.Same thing happened with a lot of whfb characters, and some of them were also released very late. Belegar and Araloth were released in early 2024, after only a year they were turned into a warden king and nomad prince respectively....actually, are they back in tow? Anybody know? Idk if the timelines work out for that.
>>97821968I wouldn't call tormentors elite, but they used to give out shit like Dark Angel Terminators 2 years ago. Age of Sigmar seems like it is being used to unload chaff, and preventing my steady stream of shit like the ratling I got from Kill Team Ratlings or the Goremonger I got from Kill Team Goremongers.
>>97821975>I wouldn't call tormentors elitewhat? are you stupid?
>>97821853>>97821957Bro it's only been two months, we had three straight months of 40k minis of the month right before that.
>>97821856Cool Necromunda model you got there. Would be a shape if something happened to it.
>>97821982Well the emperor's children don't have cultists so they'd be the baseline of the army while other ones like death guard have poxwalkers and tzaangors have tzaangors, so it's more of a mid-tier unit like plague marines.
>>97821968It's mostly chaff for both, last 4 minis of the month have been a ghoul, a darkoaf, a termagaunt and a servitor of all things.But from time to time we get more elite minis, usually a marine for 40k, for sigmar we've had chaos warriors and stuff like the barrow guard.
>>97821932>"Why yes, thank you for noticing AoS minis gigamog 40k and specialist games."
>>97821735Lmao boole is getting catty Also hasn't he announced his departure like 5 times in the past week alone?
>>97822022gigamog, not gigaynog
>>97822000>Would be a shape
>>97821735>Mamma Mia still alive All's good with the world.
>>97822022>meanwhile
>Archaon rules over the North Pole>Be'Lakor rules over the South PoleI kind of like this>Chaos Army of the North: humans are core>Chaos Army of the South: daemons are corechat what do we think?
>>97822057nope, it mentions belakor's mortal servants and doesn't mention demonsgw clearly doesn't like the idea of chaos undivided having the 4 color coded demons anymore
>>97822048You are like little baby, watch this.
>>97822048>>97822066Why?
>>97822048That's 3rd party, right? The proportions don't look GW
New to AoS, building StD. Want something decent but not some tourney list. Cavalry is cool. Painting some chaos warriors and ogroids, anything else for must have units or must avoid units?
>>97822057>coreExcuse me the relevant terminology is/was "battleline">>97822106It's been a while but I remember everything darkoath being ass, except the horse marauders which were okay. On the other end of the spectrum varanguard were bullshit.
>>97821971>tfw you played CoS circa 2019>tfw your general was a Nomad Prince>tfw COS was gonna get Conquistadors>tfw 3ed had Greatswords in Excelsis>tfw Endless Spells were on the table>tfw the books had Jolly Cooperation>tfw the rumors came out>tfw kits got sliced off faction at a time>tfw something is wearing its skin>tfw CoS 2026 is Empire 2.0>tfw everyone else gets to know this feel
>>97822141>>tfw COS was gonna get Conquistadorsno, it wasn't
>>97822141>>tfw COS was gonna get ConquistadorsYeah and kruleboyz were going to be fimirGood times on /aosg/ back then
>>97822124Thanks
>>97822141You were warned, you have noone to blame but yourself to think the box of rejects was going to stay that way.
Did any of you guys go to Adepticon this year? I thought the event was pretty darn cool great to see so many armies out and about.
>>97822151They shoulda been fimir.
Starter set faction, I just know it.
>>97822255No, i don't have time and money for international travels right now
>>97822273Okay but please stop being annoying about it.
>>97821388My assumption based on little evidence was that model WAS going to replace the current ghoul king as that rumor engine was teases 2 years and 8 months before it came out, but maybe they felt it wasn't the direction they wanted to go with FEC. (Kinda like how Royal Beastflayers are just a more fleshed out version if the Grymwatch)
>>97822260I wonder how would dominion have done with fimir instead?>>97822255What was the event about?
>>97822026OK so it's clearly one guy acting like they're multiple people
>>97822325I don’t hate kruels, but having stormcast against fimir would have probably been more exciting. Kruel boyz didn’t even feel complete with its second wave, but a semi elite army would have been much better. It was the equivalent of putting something like genestealer cults in there at the end of the day, and even gsc had a side game to piggy back off of.
>>97822048I'm gonna buy the female heads from those from bits sellers for cheapIt's so fucking annoying that the best female Marine/Stormcast scale heads were all in Stormcast kits that got squatted
>>97822273You excited about Belthanos on the hunt for Kurnoth now?
>>97822343I don’t expect him to come back, but I wouldn’t be surprised if they end up finding some aspect of him or some abstract shit.
>>97822325It's a massive ttwg event held every year in the midwest basically all the companies are there and for most its their championship games.
>Fimirfags don't know about AdepticonTourism overload
>>97822273replace horseguys with bug guys
>>97822022So you guys gonna inject sigmarite into your veins so you can hunt chaos witches to keep the Sigmar Flame burning so that one day the God King may be reviived again?
I could totally see fimir being an elite melee unit for Kruleboyz. Something like they let the best Fimir warrior fight in their battles so the rest of the fimir remain weak and don't pose a threat to them.
>>97822443You joke, but we stand unshaken, our voice will carry through the storm. We will carry that flame, for we are sigmar heldenhammer.
>>97822460AIDS Vult
Krules bullying mentally disabled with thier mare existance is very in character
>>97822148All the art and animations of the CoS at the time showed cool looking conquistador guys.
Root Kings when
>>97822561Might be a chance in that !notBretonia faction, they'll need some kind of wizard/priest expy.
>>97822485When did they get a horse?
>>97822106>something decentAnything in plate armor>must avoidAnything not in plate armorIt really is that simple, and if you want to make the list tourney competitive, include belakor and if you want it more friendly leave belakor out.
What's the new Sylvaneth Regiment of Renown?
>>97822525>The two and a half appearances of the CoS at the time showed [generic placeholders].
>>97822443Based tier would be if Sigmar injected Archaon with Sigmar joose before he passed.And Nagash is actually upset over Sigmar dying
>>97822106Chosen are great units, so are Varanguard both just destroy whatever they are fighting. Darkoath can work but they need heavy support aka bringing a bunch of their heroes and units but if you wanna dabble in them they are pretty okay screen. Almost all your monsters aren't great, and the demon prince is the worst in STD compared to the other god aligned factions.
Stormcast female x human male twink
>>97822621Something must happen because we have had the vision of their fight since day2
>>97822621Nagash and Sigmar being battle-brothers was a great piece of lore that needed expanded upon. After all Sigmar only invaded Shyish cause he felt so betrayed by Nagash, mean while Nagash felt betrayed that Sigmar was keeping souls away from him.
>>97822645no
>>97822645Yes
>>97822645bimbocast WHEN
>>97822650since 'sigmarite' will be bits of sigmar like how the fyreslayers collect bits of grimnir, nagash will probably be collected bits of sigmar to fulfill his fetish for eating gods of the dead.
>>97822649>a new chaos faction called the autarchyArchaon ascends to godhood and becomes the new malal.
>>97822621>>97822649>sigmar and archaon meet>fight>archaon: evil angsty monologue >fight>sugmar: desperately hopeful reply>fight>archaos: "you're not even my real dad!">fight>sugmar: *dies*>archaon goes to take the hammer and stop the formation of the last world>archaon: "oh fuck he was right">the hesitation costs him, the world is made, azyr explodes, him and ghal maraz are blasted away >abraxia now pretends archaon is still confidently in charge while he's got another crisis of faith and wandering the world in incognito
>>97822686Okay you're actually cooking though, Nagash trying to recreate/remake/destroy Sigmar sounds kino af.
>>978226805th Edition launch box, thats why the setting needed reset!
>>97822621Archaon was always a tragic figure manipulated by the gods. In the End Times novel, Sigmar says he was supposed to be humanity's greatest hero.That's part of the reason he's such a cunt - that inside he wishes to be good. In the same novel there's this pov for a chaos champion who debates killing Archaon to prevent what is to come and Archaon seems to put himself in vulnerable positions around him as if to tempt him. It's just another cruel twist of fate, like Oedipus leaving home.
>>97822650Yeah, but that's exclusively Josh Reynolds' invention and they retconned his Mannfred material from the same books. Still, I always thought it was kino that they were the first gods and that they protected the nascent realms from cosmic horrors for an age. Sigmar sent Stormcast to revive him after Chaos "killed" him in the RGW books too.
>>97822703>Archaon was always a tragic figure manipulated by the godsBut the writers also want to pretend he's 100% justified, doing the right thing, and being completely in control of his own destiny and not a puppet of the gods at allThat's the problem, the tragic figure angle doesn't work if there's also the edgy revenge fantasy given free reign everywhere else
>>97822332Yeah at the end of the day krules are kind of an odd army for a starter set. Imagine if it were ironjawz style normal proportioned orks instead. I do like our krulies though.
>>97822379>>97822398Yeah I know about adepticon but the way the post was worded I thought there was some special aos event like the hel's claw thing at the beginning of 4th :(
Really people believe Sigmar will die? In Age of SIGMAR? For real?
>>97822460Vindicationrak is coming!
So the threads really are all just gonna be this shitty for the next whole year, huh?
>>97822744I mean, the updated rumors make it super obvious he's not really dead.
>>97822744Really people believe they will move the timeline into the 42nd millennium? In warhammer: 40k?
>>97822763yes, baiters and grogs left and right spouting ridiculous shit until next edition confirms/shatter the rumours. is really grim a literal year of this garbage polluting all the thread.
>>97822744imagine falling for chaos propaganda lol
>>97822744He's basically irrelevant. When's the last time he appeared in official material? Forbidden Power flashback for one line. Oh. When's the last time he appeared in black library? Harrowdeep novel for one line.
>>97822763It's the usual releas cycle. Faggots will leave soon, but then come back next time they get a discord notification about GW doing something
>>97822763Outsiders indaved these threads just like how Chaos came from the polar gates. You have to learn to live with them
sigmar will return in 6th edition
>>97822816more like 12th edition... 40k
>>97822719There is a book called The Dead Hours, written by David Guymer which further goes into the alliance the two once had. Also I attest that even as the other gods backed out if the pantheon Sigmar only invaded Nagash. Which to me implies some level of greater care in that betrayal
I feel like all things considered thread's pretty alright. It was worse pre-adepticon. The worst I remember it being was right after adepticon last year when we got nothing but new spearheads while tow got new cathay which drew all the secondaries over to /tg/ too. What a shitshow that was kek.>>97822816Honestly I've been thinking about that too>sigmar has showdown with archaon>mandate of azyr, last world established, etc>absent for an edition while stormies and cos try to sort everything out>5th end of edition narrative plays out, order inevitably on the brink yet again>siggy shows up, maybe odinified It checks out
>>97822853>maybe odinifieddid you forget aos is 40k now?
>>97822861Aren't they going to odin the wolf primarch?
>>97822871the wolffag isn't the emperor
>>97822853I do seem to recall some vague rumors of Sigmar getting a model a while back, him "dying" and coming back would play into that perfectly.
>>97822572
>>97822921I really want to know who the hell pitched kragnos and why
