Should I try to sell off my IDK now? I am worried that the rumours about them being squatted in the reboot will come true.
>>97861657Stop trying to pretend there's any rumors about IDK, you fucking schizo.
>>97861657this better be a falseflag because I refuse to believe I share a general with someone this stupid
>>97861640>SoupIDK+LRL, lets be serious this game DOESN'T need 4 elf factions and no one really likes these marine fags, soup them with the Light chads and hope they can do something in a single book carried by gameplay options.>UnsoupObviously Ironjawz and Kruleboyz, Kruleboyz have a lot of room for expansion with chivalry, heavy armored infantry, warmachines... Ironjawz should be given powder already to have some ranged support, some monsters besides pigs like some new Troggs or little cabbage dragons, maybe an armored vehicle to show their mastery with metal etc.That said, i consider soup a shit and i will always advocate towards unsoup shit rather than half assed soups.
Hello, Sissies of SeethmoreThey've been saying grogs won all across the community. Now that the dust has settled, did they?
>>97861640>Your favourite glup shitto subfaction gets their own tome, including associated release waveKinda just want rootkings to be shared with cities and sylvaneth, greater emphasis on sylvaneth if I really had to pick between the two. Honestly surprised they haven’t tried showcasing the ever queen as a alternative figure that other races worship aside from like, that one beast bro in dark water, even then he registers more as a amber wizard for people not into the setting. But uh… soup helsmiths with slaves to darkness either way. There’s too much chaos shit.
>>97861723>Now that the dust has settled, did they?Please don't steal my line to promote hatred and division
>>97861723alt-tab back to TWW, I'm sure AI has finished its turn already
>97861723>Fishing (You)s with this low effort shitNu-uh.
Not long now :3
>>97861769I still don’t get why bottom left is in my treelord spam army of renown.
>>97861769Kurnothi shouldnt have any trees, Kurnoth enthusiast...
>>97861740That's MY line, imposter. I'm Dusticus.
OKAY, got the initial setup for my COS force. Holy fuck GW really wants you to use your regiments with them. Still no clue what grenadiers or the knights will actually do but fingers crossed they're not just hot ass. I'm excited to get a nice gunline rocking though.
>>97861784also dont forget wildercorps. those guys are scrappy as fuck. decent shooting, decent fighting, advance deployment, low point cost. just a wonderful, versatile unit thats often underestimated but clutch on the table. also their models are fantastic
>>97861843So far what I've got and will get the full list is gonna be: 20 Fusileers, 2 marshals on foot, callis and toll, 2 cannons, metal wizard guy, couple command corps, and fusil major.
>>97861699>IDK+LRL, lets be serious this game DOESN'T need 4 elf factions and no one really likes these marine fags, soup them with the Light chads and hope they can do something in a single book carried by gameplay options.Fuck off, also if you're going to soup idk at least put thek together with the snake ladies.
>>97861678 On her turn she tries to cast some defensive spells but either I dispel them or she fails the roll so we move onto movement where her arch-warlock walks away as her grey seer on bell prepares a charge. Meanwhile from a gnawhole the Ratling Blaster and more clan rats arrive. The blaster fires directly into my maniak blowing him to pieces as the bell charges my pigs and kills them. I do take down the stormfiend but fail to kill the catapult. She is slightly up in points as we go to round 3 wither her winning the roll but giving me the turn.
>>97861699>IDK+LRLidoneth and lumineth cannot be together, their fluff makes them antithetical to one another
>>97861902I stopped taking pictures beacuse I am dumb and was trying to focus but this is the last round. I casted a few buffs and rallied my shot boys back. Moved up the bulk of my troops preparing to kill her heros. Three clawsteps gets her gray seer out of danger but I converge on the one on the bell. My Wurgog uses his mask to do 7 damage but blows himself up in the process. My savage big boss does the rest in melee. The first gnawhole and catapult go down. Clearing up the left field but unfortunately she keeps bring stuff on the right side with her abilities and with time running low we call it, her victory I just cant move fast enough and not be shot to all hell. Good game Bonesplitterz did better than usual.
>>97862043Why were the models mostly unpainted? Made it look like a TOW game.
>>97862043Hope you had fun. Thanks for the pictures, Brosplitter.
>>97862024>GW giving a single shit about their fluffRemember the end times and how Malekith was the true shiny boy so all elves immediately followed him despite his millennia of evil acts against them.
>>97861728That anime babe/dude seems to have a serious eye infection, he oughta get it looked at instead of touching the cow.
>>97862104Okay but that was based.
>>97862104malekith being the rightful king is actually a genuinely good twist, it was unfortunately executed poorly and handled fast, but it's the right way to address the elves divide lumies and idoneths cannot be together though
>>97862104>>97862226>Malekith*Malerion
>>97862234malerion works as his birth name, malekith works as his edge name
>>97861753Forgot to reset the faction cameras, so it'll be a while, yet.
>>97861640>tqRealistically if any armies are going to be souped next it's ogres with sons of behemat>big strong retards with mercenary tendencies>even bigger stronger retards with mercenary tendenciesAs for unsoup kb and ij man it's rough. I'd also like to see gitmob be their own thing on paper but I don't think it's got enough legs to stand on their own, they're just going to continue to be an aesthetically clashing subfaction I guess.>>97862226Him being the king all along is coolThe helves actually following him after however many millennia of scorched earth total war is kinda retarded tho
>>97862104>Remember the end times and how Malekith was the true shiny boy so all elves immediately followed him despite his millennia of evil acts against them.thatn ot what happen thokhainites followed tyrion because he drew the sword and morathi literally wanted to fuck tyrion thinking he was possessed by aenarion's ghost.Teclis sided with malekith becuase he was out of options and desperate for that asuryan asspull magic to save them.
>>97862271>Gitmob being their own thing.This just this. Make them the Sun counterpart, give them warmachines, snotlings, wolves and chariots as the gotta go fast part of goblins.
>>97862226This. It was based and should have been refrenced more since
>>97862514Or just say that Grotbag were part of them all along and give them skyships. They'd fit with the speedster playstyle and wouldn't have made sens in a cave anyway
This talk of soup and gits makes me wonder, what went so right with gloomspite?I mean in the sense that we've got quite a bit of armies that are, essentially, a single unit or subfaction from an old whfb army blown up to be a full army. Slayers into fyreslayers, cairn/hex wraiths into nighthaunt, ghouls into fec, etc. A lot of those factions get the critique that they're too narrow in terms of design; classic example is dorfs. You had the old dwarf army unifying normal viking/anglo/tolkien units together with slayers and engineer tech shits reasonably well. Then in aos the slayers and tech shit each became their own faction, but they're only slayers and tech shit respectively, like they're only really doing one thing. Fyreslayers get the most complaints about this, but they're not the only one. Even factions that are generally liked conceptually sometimes get the critique that they're too narrow visually (classic example here is nighthaunt). Not to say that those factions are bad or anything, but I think in general they do seem to trend towards the lower half of the game's factions in terms of popularity.Now gloomspite have somehow completely avoided this; they're another subfaction (night goblins) turned into their own army, but are consistently among the game's most popular armies even when ruleswise they've been pretty shit for 90% of their existence.So, what gives?
>>97862567Speaking of skyships, I notice the skaven ones keep being mentioned in lore despite none of them being playable. It's a shame.
>>97862608they were already a competently designed subgroup from from whfb, not just one unit or one hat
The correct way to handle IDK is to soup them into the new umbraneth army under Malerion and make him established as the eternity king over all aelf souls hailing from the old world. Since that is how the idoneth were created, using the souls rescued from slaanesh's gullet, that makes them fall under his domain. Morathi will fall in line too.
>>97862901Idoneth doesn’t have hair tho
>>97862901Honestly the most reasonable soup idea I've seen for elves so far.
>>97862608I would resolve this matter with one word: Charisma.Goblinos have charisma, the reveal trailer of your pic related was, in my personal experience, the first one that truly got me invested in AoS with the Bad Moon revealing himself at the end and the whole "cave" aesthetic the design team choose for the Night goblins was one of the best decisions they ever made. Gitz+Troggs+Squigs make for colorful, varied and interesting armies ok the field and moreover the range since the beginning was big and complete.GSC is how you make a faction in the right way.
>>97862901>Morathi will fall in line too.you lost me there, chief, for a moment i was interested.let malerion keep sleeping.
>>97862901Or maybe get this...just expand idoneth not everything needs to be souped ffs
>>97863093You can't keep a faction separate that has maybe 80 dedicated players globally.
>>97863107They've done it for 8 years already. GSC in 40k have low player rates and have been going on for 10 years, and BoC were gonna get refreshed before they squatted for Old World.
>>97863127GSC are kino thobeit and probably have many people who like them at HQ. Whereas IDK are unpopular and a pet project of one guy who doesn't work there anymore.
>>97863137If they are unpopular at hq how come they got an incarnate, and 3 heroes this edition.Also implying that Idoneth is not kino lol.
>>97863151No one even knows what an incarnate is. Also pity heroes do not a faction make.
>>97863158They got a bigass new centerpiece model that happens to be a spell and a new special character that their lore pushes into a central position and then a pity hero with two build options, which is more than most armies have gotten this edition. Stop being retarded just because you don't like IDK.
>>97863158You literally praised GSC which is 60% pity hero I know I own them. No a truly unpopular army is one that gets nothing ala Bonesplitterz.
>>97863173I praised genestealer cults because they are the most Warhammer 40k faction added in the last 15 years to that game. Meanwhile IDK were just a way to get marine sculpts into the range. Sculpts that were completely unneeded and remain unpopular.
>>97861640>SoupIDK+DoK, you can even work in the fluff that they get all the males. We already had an alliance in Harrowdeep, so just make it official. Then you've got Morathi(Pretending to be Khaine, but a Real Goddess) vs Kerusa(Worshipping the Old Gods) vs Prophet of the Deep(Worshipping the Idoneth people). Sprinkle in the fact that Morathi is the oldest elf(WHF) and the Idoneth king is the oldest elf(AoS) for a neat comparison. >UnsoupChaos Marauders. Let's you split Chaos into t-shirt saves vs big boys in armor. Belakor gets the t-shirt saves he can easily manipulate, Archaon gets the hardliners. Rework the Wilderfiends as an alternate ascension path compared to Daemon Prince. One is a direct chain(Chaos Warrior-Chosen-Chaos Lord/Wizard-Varanguard-Daemon Prince) while the other is a pool(Chaos Marauder-Conan Lads-Chief-Wilderfiend), with the alternate end to either being Spawndom.
>most 40k army in 40k >complete abandon ware next to drukhari While I won’t say I dislike gsc, currently they kinda cockblock traitor guard from being a range in 40k, so they kinda earn some ire from me there. Also I think they’re kinda bankrupt on what to add to the faction beyond more hero’s. I don’t have an opinion on idoneth other than I want to rape a Namarti and maybe see slime girls take hold in its range.
>>97863534>unsoup chaos marauders
>>97863158>No one even knows what an incarnate isyou're really outing yourself here. go back to your shithole thread
None of my armies really benefit from being de-soup'd or even really soup'd.>BoK>CoS>KO I guess seeing Cities focus more on the gap between the Zenestra and Tahlia crusades would be cool? One more focused on Priests, altars, flagellants, and "manifestations" like Khorne. Tahlia can be more Ironweld Guild and generic soldier stuff.
I'm glad BoC went to ToW. At least their players appreciate them unlike AoS fanboys. For some reason like half the people (and they've posted armies) in the Fantasy general play Beastmen. They are by far the most popular 4chan army for ToW.
>>97863823you've done this exact same bit with this exact same picture like once every 3 weeks.
>>97862693They look cool too, based on 1eart. Like all jagged and sleak to contrast with round KO designs
>>97863823Yeah, TOW is the furry containment game, we know.
How's Tzeentch play this edition?
Is the new Warhammer Quest broken? I heard that some boss fights are unbeatable and there are missions that you depends on rng to be able to have a chance at beating it.Was it that bad? I kind want the new Nurgle models and be able to play a dungeon crawler but Kinda worried about its playability.
Armies for this feel?
>>97864126All of chaos is satanic
>>97864104>I heard that some boss fights are unbeatableGit Gud
>>97863550I don't think it's a good idea to be clear but I thibk darkoath as a subrange would benefit from being allowed to have actually elite units, instead of those being relegated to chaos warriors. I know it doesn't make any sense lorewise since y'know that's what chaos warriors are, but they're so different in aesthetics it's difficult to make that connection just based on looks.
>>97864245There’s just too much chaos stuff to begin with, I get your point but that’s a box that’s better off unopened. It’s still absurd that beastmen are still separate army rather than an auxiliary of slaves to darkness/ warriors of chaos.
>>97864126Qohor in the asoiaf game?
>>97862514>Sun counterpartGitmob worship the bad moon
>>97864350You would never know it to look upon them though, which I think is what anon was getting at
hel-LO, /AOSG/, how are you all this fine night? good? we been spending the day productive, talking about the game and our models, and not responding to TOWTRANNIES and SECONDARIES, right? yes? good! hopefully we also avoided talking about rumors incessantly right? good!then im GLAAAD we all had a good day here! has anyone gotten any painting done? i worked on my plaguepack today!
>>97864358Just ignore everything about them and yeah I'd say they worship Sigmar and should be in SCE too
>>97863823
>>97864386I think the way they tied them to the wider gsg themes lorewise is actually not half bad (the sun "bullies" the bad moon which they hate for doing so, but because goblins are cunts they also kind of respect it for it), but they completely neglected to do so with the actual models. Gloomspite has a VERY strong core theme with y'know caves and mushrooms and the moon and spiders and other associated creepy crawlies, but then here you have wolf/steppe/badlands/sun chariot guys. They only really share the goblins (and even then they look quite different), everything else is almost diametrically opposed. It's a shame because I do actually like gitmob visually they just don't mesh with the rest of the army (and are wayyy too expensive...)
>>97864391It's clearly anti grav chainmail.
>>97864391To play the devils advocate, the shoulder does have a small tint of copper, smeared in grime
>>97864304Just say got unc
>>97864384Waiting on some ebay eels myself.Y'know speaking of rumours, there's a new guy speaking in cryptic messages over on tga, real javgoro type.
>>97863823>Lines, obviously, conjured by the camera, mere imperfections of the lens.
>>97864518Surely this is not the same guy
>>97862901while that's the safest way to handle them, it creates an asymmetry between the lumineth and the umbraneth, that asymmetry could only be resolved by giving the sylvaneth to the lumineth, but everyone knows and accepts 3 groups of elves already, so if sylvaneth stay separate then idoneth must either stay separate or join them in a book that exemplifies the third party from the light/dark dichotomy, and an alliance of land and sea as the ultimate "nature army"
Progress on my hobgrots. Got the first 5 models mostly done save for some details and the bases.I'm glad these can be done rather fast. Means I won't hate myself after painting all 20.
>>97864559Big brain solution: namarti go to umbraneth, akhelians go to lumineth
>>97864386Yeh, fag, they clearly qorship the Bad Moon, the semi-mongolian theme and those gigiantic suns slapped in every model screams "Moon" so loud and clear... Oh and how well they fit with the rest of Gloomspite Gitz, lile a pair made in heaven *chef kiss*
how crazy would be bring boc back to aos?
>>97864609we can't possibly split the idoneth
>>97864640Not much, all they need is a new Xtreme twist and morghur already provided one by having everything revolve around spawns and mutations dialed to 11 instead of simplers goatmen.10 years from now, they might actually come back.
>>97864625Anon I think you two are agreeing>>97864666I would prefer more varied normal beastmen (i.e. rhinos and shit) instead of muh mutation beastmen, if they ever come back.
Why has this thread gotten so slow? Did a bunch of FUDs literally just insta-quit at the very first tentative hint they might not love the 5e lore?
>>97864713>fudWhat?Either way, we're back to pre rumours / adepticon speed. I think it comes down to 4th just not being very exciting to talk about, like you can't really have much in the way of listbuilding discussion for example. Also in general this board continues to bleed activity.
>>97864713did you miss the weeks of uninterrupted discord raids?
>>97864713Less troll and TOWorlders, thank god.
>>97864732>>fud>What?It's crypto retard speak, an acronym of "fear uncertainty doubt". Basically naysayers or skeptics or people who bail out.>>97864733>>97864736Feels like there are fewer active contributers too. But yes the board in general is bleeding users. I just didn't expect to feel such a difference on the order of a few months.
>>97864640No one likes Goats.
>>97864787When this thread is not getting raided or shitposted to death it's usually fairly slow, stop doomposting
>>97861769This is a poor replacement for Soon posting.
>>97862104Except they didn't immediately follow him, it took a fucking second HE civil war and former gud boi Tyrion going fucking insane to convince the remaining elves to follow him reluctantly (including the sinking of their homeland and athel loren, now controlled by his also reluctant wife the everqueen, to be the only safe place left
>>97864575The skin looks pretty nice for a quick job.Recipe?
>>97864713The rumors were very explosive so it got a ton of traffic, now everyone onto NEXT THING so it slowed down to the pre rumors 'this edition sucks dick, fuck this' levels of apathy. It will start again when we get a GHB, then die down after it's solved in a month
>>97864832I can't imagine any kind of seasonal shake-up that would make me care about either of my armies again right now. A couple new war scrolls ain't gonna do it for me.
>>97864804This board has been undeniably on the decline for the past few years though, we're at like, what, 1/4th? of the activity of 10 years ago
>>97864827It's just an army painter "sand dune" (or similar, can't remember the exact name) basecoat with some slightly thinner reikland fleshshade washed over it.Kinda gives it that yellow, sickly flesh look I'm trying to create for them.
>>97862055Because I really don't paint. But my opponent had a fully painted army.
>>97864868Well it looks good dude
>>97862055Kek
>>97864904> I don't paintGross. Please leave the AoS community
>>97864713>Why has this thread gotten so slow?
>>97864575Decent, but the top right has a visable connection point between the body and head bit
>>97864925Post painted models then.
>>97864713I think the board in general has slowed down a bit since the '10s. People are using other sites to funpost about traditional games.
>>97864804The idea of it being "discord raided" is deeply schizophrenic. About as schizo as thinking the "fuck 40gay" or "fuck games wokeslop" dudes on /tg/ are some kind of united and coordinated terrorist group. There are just randos on here who hate certain things (and AoS probably has a higher percentage of haters than most games do).
>>97864713The average Polack isn't off work yet so they haven't made our day worse yet.
>>97864947Is this zoomers' fault??
>>97864997Nah the rest of the internet became like this site. People used to come to say edgy things or radical opinions anonymously now they say the same shit with their full legal name on facebook and twitter.
>>97864904As someone who hates painting personally, you gotta at least try to paint them.>t. 60% greytide lizards
>>97864984>he wasn't around where a retard forgot he already downloaded the group spam folder and had (1) in all file names
>>97864997>>97865007Sharty is the actual edgy 4chan from Internet Historian normie stories with raids, doxxes and hackers.You're more free to say slurs on X than on here.
>>97865009>greytide lizardscome on nigga you can literally just slap some contrast and drybrush most of your lizards and they'll look good
>>97865011That was a funny oneWish I could find it but too generic for thr archives probably
Athelwyrd. Home.
>>97865059ghyran truly is the worst realm to live in
>>97865067I feel like ulgu would be. Shadows lies and deception must be annoying day in and day out.
>>97865029Honestly my big bottleneck has been having kids, I don't have the space to paint with three kids running around.
>>97864973I have multiple times. I don't have to dance to your faggot paintlet tune.
>>97865067What you tell me about Shysh? Would you be willing to be over the fucking egomaniac controlling death and with a really awful humor sense?
>>97865096Sure thing lil bro
>>97865067Ghyran strikes me as one of the comfier places desu, aside from azyr. Ghur has gotta be the shittiest. Literally just ghyran but worse.
Wosrt realms>Ghur>Ulgu>ChaosBest Realms>Ghyran>Azyr>Hysh
>>97865146> P post models> Doesn't post his own PAINTED models in the post to challenge Lol not how it works 'lil bro' maybe lurk MOAR?
>>97865157>>97865170I mean on the other hand what the fuck is going on in azyr that all these dawners are just lining up to be sent to die fighting whatever horrors the realms throw at them this week
Why is GW squatting both AoS and TOW?
>>97864915Thanks my man, I'm glad it's alright for a quick and dirty job.>>97864965Honestly, it's fine to me. The cannon fodder models aren't my main focus in this army, I just want some paint on them so they can look pretty on the table alongside the real stuff. I've been trying to go all out on the rest of my army.
>>97865379Totally greg victory. (My name is greg)
>>97865384I had to double check recently since I popped over my FLGS recently to pick up some models from a dude with purple chorfs (I got a pic from their battle report) and had to double check if it was you anon. Still love the purple dorfs.Also for any anons following my constant bitching, this is in fact that annoying DoK army that I struggle to beat because it's just all snakes and Morathi.
>>97865281Azyr is actually nice to live in. The Dawnbringer crusades happen because of the need to take the realms back from chaos. People go on them because wither they have no other options, take this other than punishment for a crime, or just doing it because they want ancestral homes back, or maybe think its just the right thing to do.
>>97865392Hi greg
>>97865392Why?
>>97865408Hey man, I just wanted everyone to know that while I'm sad AOS and TOW are going away it's been personally very good for me, I don't mean to imply as though I hate you guys it's just kinda been good for me personally. Stay safe out there folks.
>>97865399Hell yeah dude, always nice to see another person with with good taste. Purple works so well for the chorfs.
>>97865424I feel bad, he got face rolled by those fucking snakes. But dude is really nice, he was the one who just gave me 3 warcry warbands for free. My local community is so god damn cool.
>>97865433Shame, I keep hearing HoH aren't that good. I've currently only got 2 games with them in spearhead (that's all I have painted so far aside from characters), 1 loss against rats and 1 victory against lizards.my local AoS scene is almost non-existent it's so small...
>>97865439>I keep hearing HoH aren't that goodI've heard them described as a "fair army" which effectively means they're gonna get trounced by all the bullshit in the game. They're well balanced, which is meaningless in the realm of skew lists and god models.
>>97865446Makes sense, good thing I'm here for the models and not The rules
>>97865446Hate when that happens.
>>97865399Damn no kidding that's a lot of snakes. I see like 30 there?
