>TQHigh elves. They have at least 3 cool metal miniatures
dwarf post dwarf post dwarf post dwarf post TQ: bretonnians do in fact have sick bright color schemes and i respect them for being garish
>TQThe Skaven make for great sacrifices to Sotek and piles of corpses in general.
>>98046723>What is your favorite thing about a faction you don't like?Dwarves have cool helicopters, and my hatred for stunties makes me respect high elves and orcs at the same time for killing themPS fuck stunties
What are you currently working on anons? Just shaded these warhounds and gnoblars because fuck staying consistent ig lol
>>98046723>TQBeastmen, I have nothing positive to say about them
>>98046852They make very poor sacrifices. The best sacrifices are always high quality: young beautiful virgins, first born sons, the best lamb or cattle in the herd, etc. Stinky vermin like skaven are very low quality sacrifices and would surely offend any god or higher being receiving them
>>98046895I like how genuinely sinister they feel.There is no humor like in orcs or skaven, there is no humanity or tragity.They are purely alien and metal af.Like if you named your General "Rapestorm" in any other faction you'd get side-eyed but in beastmen? Thats actually a perfectly normal name
If you were put in charge of making your very own faction as an Official™ Warhammer Fantasy army, what would it look like?
>>98046921The Chuds of Mericabasically the humans south of the Dark Elves trying to save the west and get a cute Delf foids
>>98046921Probably some cool fish elves... elven tree spirits... maybe steampunk sky pirate dwarves. Oh and turn the Brettonians into ghouls, that'll be funny.
>>98046894If you are gonna bait at least paint well.
>>98046906Sotek loves Skaven more than anything else Skinks sacrificed so many Skaven souls they literally summoned a serpent God that chased the rats out of Lustria
>>98046921Idk I'm still in the brainstorm stage. Floating islands, flying or walking castles, some flying ships. These will be humans or course, and they will ride dinosaurs like dinotopia, pterodactyls with bench seats on their back ..
>>98046921I actually have an idea for a Chaos subfaction sort of like how the recent arcane journals released rules and lore for full Norscan armies.Basically there's this cool piece of Circassian/Ossetian folklore (peoples whose conversion to Christianity/Islam has always been extremely shaky at best) detailing rituals around healing the sick by pleading to the god Sozeresh, who ruled over the realm of miasmic realm of disease. Some of the rituals are pleading bedside chants, while others ressemble parlour games, jokes or pranks and were meant to make the patient feel more at ease. Now this in itself is sort of interesting because you can draw some fun parallels from folklore to warhammer, but we can take it a step further. What's the rough Warhammer equivalent of the Caucasus? A good answer could be the area around the Sour Sea, since the geography roughly matches. And around the Sour Sea yiu of course have to contend with Nagash who has his big evil fortress just there. Mashing all that together we can write a pretty classic warhammery tragic tale:Long ago, a tribe of humans was pushed into the rocky and inhospitable mountains of the Desolation of Nagash by chorf, greenskin and ogre attacks. They scraped together a living as best they could until the forces of undeath took notice of them and began ruthlessly cleansing them out. They fought valiantly but their defeat was assured, for every time a warrior fell, he would quickly rise up and his puppeted corpse would join the fight against his former kin.This goes on until the very son of the high chief suffers a grievous wound in battle, only barely making it out alive. Dozens of priests and shamans gather at his bedside, invoking spells and supplications to their god the lord of disease to release the young prince and save him from servitude to Nagash.
>>98047018At this moment a cloaked figure, the emissary of Sozeresh enters town on a pallid emaciated steed. He proposes an offer to the high chief: renounce all other gods but his lord and his son will be saved and his people never again threatened by Nagash. The chief of course reluctantly accepts, sealing his own fate as well as his entire people's. His warriors soon find weapons can no longer kill them, only injure them, injuries which quickly begin filling with rot and pus, yada yada you know the drill.I guess the army itself would be composed of units that are generally weaker and hit less hard, due to the lower influence Chaos can exert this far south, though they'd still be very hard to kill. The tribal elites would still fight from horses with swords and lances, but you'd also have more exotic units like mobile but underpowered sniper/jezzail teams and horse archer outriders. Their magic would also be kind of different, you would only have one proper hero/lord wizard, the Emissary himself, the rest would be wizard units made up of supplicants that can either work on their own or supercharge the emissary. Also feel free to throw some classic Nurgle stuff in there like plague carts and such.What would you think of such an army?
I play Dwarves in MESBG. I am waiting for Kislev. But since Kislev is seemingly not on the horizon. How do Dwarfs play in TOW? Are they a good faction to start TOW with?
>>98046921Bugs. Not bug people or people bugs. Bugs.
>>98047143Same as they always have, slow-moving but with plenty of good gunline units and artillery.Doomseekers are better than ever with the Initiative buff on the charge. Obnoxiously good against T3 infantry since their impact hits and flurry of attacks can generally wipe out the front rank of most general infantry they run into, leaving usually 2 maybe 3 supporting attacks. And when they die, they give no victory points.
>>98047193Is there a way to play without a gunline? I don't want to have unfun games.
>>98047198You can play heavy infantry and try to move up the field, but if they have a gunline (or bowline as in the case of elves, especially the wood variety) then you'll get shot to shit before you get there.Even then, you'll want at least two artillery pieces. You need to keep some pressure on the opponent to stop them from just sitting there.You could go all Slayers, but that's a meme army that will shred anything it touches but if they have ranged, they won't let you touch them since they die to a stiff breeze.
>>98047214So combined arms could work? I am not against having ranged and arty, I just don't want to do a static ranged line.
>>98047193>victory points What a retarded concept. Why would a battle have abstract video game "points" handed out, when they could have designed the rules to prioritize actual battlefield objectives
>>98047256Shutup perrymanlet, go play 40k or AoS if you want that.
>>98047229Yeah, combined arms is probably the most fun. >>98047256If you actually played the game, you'd know most scenario rules DO prioritize objective and board control. Just with additional points based on what units of your opponent's you've actually killed.
>>98047271How viable are ironbreakers? I really love the models but I worry that people will just avoid going into combat with them.
>>98047274They're good and strong but they do suffer from their slow speed and everyone trying to avoid actually getting stuck in with them. Orcs and Goblins may throw a nightgoblin regiment at them to be a speedbump, and dump out some Fanatics at you. But elves will try to run away at all costs.
>>98046921Fimir beastmen subfaction full of the unreleased forgeworld models.
>>98047271>you'd know most scenario rules DO prioritize objective and board controlNo they don't, that is patently false. The rulebook has three ways to play: pitched battles, campaign play, and narrative play. 99% of games played are just pitched battles. Of the 6 different pitched battle "scenarios" in the rules, 5 of the 6 have no objectives or board control, they're just slightly different variants of deployment zones. Only one of them (Command & Control) has a single objective/board control in the dead center of the table, and even that just gives you some more abstract "victory points" at the end of the game. Irregardless of all this, I have never seen a single game of TOW played that wasn't the most basic bitch "Open Battle" first scenario.
>>98047390Doubt it. Most people play the scenarios from the matched play book.
>>98047408He would know this, if he knew anything about the game other than second hand info he has read online. But he has never played the game nor does he own any models.
>>98047408Post a single example of someone playing anything other than Open Battle
>>98047424Post a single timestamped model you own
>>98047424Pretty much every battle report by mountain miniature games since the release of the matched play book.
>>98047424>>98047433Also Tabletop Tactics. Also Perry sculpts suck ass.
>>98047433>>98047443Ah yes, YouTube "influencer" shit because you can't find a single example in the history of this general or any games irl
>>98047464No models?
>>98047464I wouldn't post photos from my games if I can easily meet your requirements by referring you to one of the biggest TOW youtube channels. So stop moving the goal post , its getting embarrassing.
>>98047467Get ye back to facebook
I got into Old World because my friend who played the system told me it was fun and I preordered Cathay. I only play them and I enjoy the system. Am I a cancer?
>>98047514>Am I cancer?No. What kind of list are you playing?
>>98047545Well my faction has a grand total outside characters 8 units That said, I'm obsessed with trying to make lancers work. They're terrible but I'll get them one day. Halfway between Jade Fleet and a Priest of Ulric for rerolling 1s on Hit and Wound vs. Astromancers that give us [a 9+ buff] 1+S/WSAnd yeah, lanterns. They're good. I use two minimum. Sorry.
>>98047567>I use two minimumYeah kill yourself immediately.
>>98047514If you own minis and actually play with them you are a very rare creature indeed.
>>98047588Stay mad?>It's strong!Yeah, and? Please, feel free to use your words.>My melee chaos can't fight you!Okay...?
>>98047594Is it? I mean I like my plastics and all that
>>98047603Sorry this ragebait is ineffective on a narrative player like myself. WAACfagging is the lowest form of this hobby.Yes, I am better looking than you. Cope and seethe below.
>>98047625Ah, hm, high elf? I mean they're weak and proud, so just guessing?
>>98046723Played a 1250p game the other day, my Beastmen against a mounted Khorne list.We got the breakpoint scenario, and my opponent got first turn.His giant chaos spawn got a long movement and slammed into my wargor, killing him easily.Then I fumbled most of my attacks from my Minotaurs and razorgor, failing to kill it before it slew most of my Minotaurs with killing blow causing them to flee.Otherwise I fared pretty well, stopping most the momentum with the chargers by forcing a few stalemate combat resolutions.Got to use my Centigors for the first time too, but it’s clear I need learn how to use them better.Unfortunately my general was taken out in a duel (again with killing blow).Until we reached the 5th turn when we both needed to slay one of our dudes each to force a break point, which he did before me, so the rest of my army broke ending the game.Even if it was a bit frustrating with killing blow it was fun to play a game.What games have you guys been playing as of late?
>>98047345>Can I ask a question for the one who dabbled with Highland Miniatures? Are there many saying that they match the current Old World better when printed as 30mm, but what about... old school miniatures like those in Warhammer Quest 1995? So do they fit more if printed as 28mm?They fit better as 28mm period. No disrespect to anyone who's been led to believe 30mm is a better fit, but I've heard this 30mm thing a few times recently too and I can only assume that the people confidently asserting it have heard it online and like to repeat because it makes them sound "in the know". I've done various side by side tests with multiple of their miniatures and GW minis from 5th-8th edition, and digital calipers. 30mm has never been the matching scale in any of my tests. For humanoid stuff 28mm (87.5% of the original STL's scale) came back as the matching scale each time. Skeletons in the pic are printed at 87.5%. Their empire spearman in walking pose is exactly the same height - literally to the eyeline - as the 6th edition starter box spearman in walking pose, when printed at 87.5%. Dwarfs due to their different proportions (head and neck sit higher on the shoulders than GW sculpts) it was more like 85-83% (26-27mm), but then the highlands dwarf's shoulders end up lower than a GW dwarf, so it's a case of personal preference.Two caveats:1) highlands changed their sculpting style around 2023 to have more heroic proportions; I haven't tested anything before then, so those sculpts may well do better at 30mm. But I doubt that's what the vast majority of people are referring to when they say 30mm is best.2) I haven't tested scale against anything GW released since TOW came out, but having seen scale comparisons of those minis against 6-8th ed minis, I doubt it'd make much difference.I have almost the full highlands range, so if there's a particular mini that you're thinking of using for WHQ I can put it in a 3d program and do some scale comparisons if you'd like.
>>98046911Skaven and orcs both are a thousand times more threatening than beastmen for the simple fact that they don't ALWAYS loseAlso naming your general Rapestorm is retarded no matter what faction you play
>>98047514>asks if army choice makes him a cancer>gets told it depends on the list>posts list>gets told is a cancer>spergs out
>>98046723Wood Elves, they make good brood mares
Quick! Add a random encounter to the list!
>>98047603My 48 Bretonnian archers and 18 crossbowmen would like a word with your WAACnigger balloons
>>98047424This is a photograph of my opponent and I playing a game that had multiple objectives, including defending/capturing baggage trains, securing a mystical pool, and holding territory (corners). It was quite fun, though my daemon prince was utterly useless.
>>98047274They are my favorite dwarf models but sadly they somewhat lost their mojo with 1.5 as they are so heavily armoured they dont benefit from from the parry rule. You are paying high price for that 6+ ward.
>>98046921Dwarf nomadsDwarfs have no cavalry, so this is the army based around Dwarfs having cavalry. A different type of runework too, one that seems to verge on normal magic in a way regular Dwarfs find very disconcerting. They worship Valaya above all, so they have more women and reproduce much more quickly than regular dwarfs, but it's rare for one to live past 300. Once again, unnerving to regular dwarfs. But really, I just want Dwarf cavalry
>>98047837>claims beastmen always lose>beastmen have been a top 5 competitve army since ToW launch Interesting, what other random words do you like to string together with no regard for their meaning?
>5th edition questing knights insta-selling for $150+ apiece on ebay>rarer ones are $200+Thank God I got the ones I have when I did. The Cordon Sanitaire has fallen. Billions must take the Exile's Vow.>tfw never got the one with the deer crest
>email footsore re: their dwarf range>he replies politely amd answers my question within 24 hours>reply back: "Goddamn, you must be a faggot, nigger or retard(or all three!)">sit back in my chair and wonder why im like this
Threadly reminder this is a Beastchad general set on a Beastchad world.
>>98048426fuck off beastnigger
>>98047953Encounters a company of Dwarf Ranger on the road.
>>98048206I recognize those Perry archers. Almost used HYW Perrys for my Brets as well, but the scale is just so off it's distracting. Might as well use the stakes they came with though, those are pretty great bits.>>98048424Lmao fuckin' sperg.>>98048426By this logic, the real world belongs to retard R-selected Africans and Indians (it doesn't).
>>98048315Ok, what animals would they ride though? IDK why but I feel like some sort of dire, horse-sized saiga would fit the dwarfs quite well, at least as pack animals.
>>98048315>Dwarfs having cavalryStop trying to do this lame gay shit.
>>98048433>>98048443
>>98048410take the recast pilllast night I varnished a bunch of squigs and hoppers. what varnish do you use? how many coats? ive done 1 thin watered-down layer of vallejo ultra matte so far I wonder if its enough protection.
>>98048485less slopping more learning how to paint methinks
>>98048505I've reached out to this 'caster and MF and neither is willing to ship to the USA USA USA, so I'm forced to pay divorced dad ebay rates. Fucking gay. On the plus side there are only a couple Questing Knights that I still want and I have plenty as it is.
>>98048528I mean you live in neo india as its hurtling back to dark age serfdom you take what you can get.
>>98048479That would be cool. I wouldn't want it to be goats, because that's very mountain coded and I want my Dwarf nomads to be very culturally distinct from regular dwarfs. So yeah some kind of slightly weird plains ungulate would be great
>>98048528there are middlemen services for international shipping, usually the prices are not worth it, but in this case it just might if you want them hard enough
>>98048410I'll never understand retards who buy that. Not only are they old and mediocre but they've been scanned and can be printed for a few cents per mini.
>>98047765Wish i could get these games. A fucking sweaty tourny -going spike(well two, but the other plays beastmen and i can work around viletide minospam), has upped (tainted) the casual play pool among my local group, its all giga-stacked banners and deathstars now post 2025 errata, i go for a 'fuck it lets mash models' charge so we can both have fun and get 'okay so heres +69combat res for me before combat even happens' deathstar blocks, its like the sweaty days of 8th all over again!An unga bunga Khorne cav bro to play sounds great >>98047603If your opponent doesnt enjoy matches with you because you bring two balloons outside of a tournament setting you only deprive yourself of opponents while giving feelsbad moments to fellow nerds who bother to collect and play irl, retard. Yes, you are a cancer. Only saving grace is if you painted them.
>>98047765Sovlful board, anon. My most recent game was a 750 battle march of my beastmen vs my friend who was borrowing my dwarfs. Lost, finding out beastmen are a pretty bad matchup for dwarfs, but still had fun.
>>98048479>>98048567They should ride alpine mountain goats (those who climb the mountain walls)https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alpine_ibex
>>98048483Truth nuke
>>98048631huh the hospital tier white lighting actually works very well here because it gives the entire scene a high-contrast desaturated look, very warhammer
>>98048646He wants his dwarfs to be as un-dwarf as possible.
>>98048651Lol yeah its the preinstalled overhead spotlights in the apartment, it does make for decent photography though. Only issue is the desert side of the board is almost unphotographable due to the direct light reflecting off the lighter color, though it does make it look like a real desert I guess.
>>98048664That's why he suggested that Dwarfs ride goats, so that a stubborn creature with a beard can ride a stubborn creature with a beard.
>>98048479>picI would vote no on anyone riding that - not because it wouldn't work, but it would give them an unfair advantage against me, as I couldn't bear the thought of hurting such a creature.
>>98046723>Need mournfang cavalry to wrap up ogre army>See an old box of them at my lgs (the old white AoS color) >Grab it because it being an old box means I might luck out & it'll have square bases>Pay the retail price of mournfang minus $15 (standard discount store tries to employ for all GW stuff)>Get home & open box (wasn't shrink wrapped)>Half the sprues have had their pieces snipped out>Someone basically took 2 out of 4 of the mournfang & reboxed itMaaan this shit sucks. I'm bros with all the guys at the store there so I'm sure I'll get a refund, but I've never had this happen before so this shit is going to be awkward as hell
>>98048855I'd blame brown people but they don't warhammer
>>98048825This is the first time we see their size - they're not as big as an Ogre and they're larger than a regular human: Orc size, 30mm
>>98048825>one set wields Hand Axes>One wields a Quandaos>one uses Chakrams and tiger claws, I thinkWeird weapon selection imo but I guess they're meant to be a mix of Indian and Chinese weapons
>>98047765>Got to use my Centigors for the first time too, but it’s clear I need learn how to use them better. As the heavy Centigor promoter, what did you do with them and how did they perform/under perform in your opinion?
>>98048968guandao*
>>98048825Snakefriends next
>>98048865They don't even steal Warhammer. They don't interact with game stores at all, kinda like bookstores and libraries
>>98048855Wouldn't that entitle you to a refund from the store?
>>98049066Your stores must not sell yugioh then
>>98049066Cardgame theft from LGS is growing increasingly common
>>98048865I'm sure they intended to sell it for half price or something but the box had been sitting there for so long someone forgot & just assumed it was a banged up, unopened box>>98049073It absolutely will, I just hate to go in and awkwardly ask for one since I've never hard to do that with this store
Here we go. Only painted two because I've never painted warhounds before and I wasn't sure what sort of paint scheme I would end up going with, but I think they came out looking pretty good. I will hopefully be able to finish their three sisters soon and have my first fully painted beastmen unit yayy
>>98048424Posts like this make me realize that I'm not actually that weird and probably shouldn't even be here
>>98049139>fileted baseSo long as the front is flat, I don't mind this look actually.
>>98048982I got them in early and placed them to counter his marauders who also came in from ambush. I tried (and failed) with a hit and run with the trowing axes and call of the wild.Then I charged his marauders next turn, missing most of my dice leaving me with a single Gorehoof against two of marauders.With some luck I managed to win that battle next turn and move closer to the center.Next turn I rolled a 6 on the drunken table and had to charge the giant chaos spawn (who at this point only had 2 wounds left) due to frenzy, fun stuff real liquid courage.I could have killed it if my 3 hits from my G-W didn't land on 1-2-2 when wounding it.With one swipe from the giant spawn it ended the last of the centigors.Will continue to use them and improve on my skills.
A very fun project is about to begin, gentlemen. I just have one final decision to make: To whom will these mighty warriors swear their allegiance?
>>98049414Malal
>>98049414 Tzeentch, since Halberds are a Tzeentch weaponBut Malal would also be a cool colour scheme
>>98049414undivided paint em black or metallic silvery or paint em a nice firey orange but they serve khorne
>>98049335Other than dice hating you, seems they did well. I don't know the state of the board, but I'd have probably not charged the marauders cause throwing axes would perform better, especially if you got call of the wild off again. Otherwise, love them drunken assholes!
Also yayy I have finally finished this old project, a greenskins/ogre kingdoms themed baggage train to use as an objective marker and whatnot. Kind of hard to get a good picture of them, specially as the weather is absolutely dreadful today.>>98049414Khorne red or unaligned black are the classic picks but I would actually echo Tzeentch here, I think blue and gold could look very peamful if you mananage to pull it off.>>98049271Yeah I bought them as they came for AoS and didn't have any square cav bases so I reused these ancient 40k pill bases I've had lying around for like 20 years, I think it works quite nicely. Technically illegal in both TOW and AoS but who cares I'm not a tourneyfag
Few more pictures from different angles.
>>98049555What model was the basis for oxen anon?

>>98048908Yes, they are more like Gors sized compared to human.>>98048968The disc things are for ranged attacks.>>98049048One may hope (or Monkes).
>>98048377I'm talking about lore
>>98049481The marauders would have charged my beasts either way, so if I charged them it gave me higher initiative, not that it helped that much, but it gave me a leg up.
>>98049732>The disc things are for ranged attacks.So, a Chackram anon that what those are called
>>98049732At this point I'm like 90% convinced we're getting ind/kuresh in either the 5th ed big campaign or in TOW and possibly in TWWH
>>98049800Ah then yes that makes complete sense. Which loadout did his marauders have? Unless the dice just absolutely wrecked you it was at least a favorable fight.
>>98049844They had Cavalry spears, Light armour, Shields, Throwing axes and a full command. That's why I didn't want to get charged and charged instead.
>>98048825>Cathay most popular Old World army, especially among normies>Normies love cats and cat people They'd be fools not to bring these guys over to Old World, right? which means they won't
>>98049853Yeah, you needed the charge. Reminds me though, a rules question for everyone. Friend of mine keeps insisting wounds dealt by stand and shoot count towards combat rez. Hasn't mattered for any combat cause its always a blowout in one direction or the other. Is that correct?

>>98050069Just like Kislev. I sure do love my Kislev army GW released after showing TOW branded concept art.
>>98050094The very first thing they showed for TOW and marketed it with btw
>>98049732wow cool which ching chong korean furrybait mobile game is this from? it looks especially gay and bad
We must never forget that ancient but most truthful sayingIf a furry has scalesGo catch some tailsIf a furry has furBegone in a blurWhat I'm saying is, i need the Ind sex snakes
>>98050280There's no fucking difference, a furry is a furry.>no anon, stepping on Lego is better than stepping on a d4Is your logic.
>>98050094They're almost certainly going to release them, possibly even later this year. Certainly before any of the Legends armies come back (if they ever do which I doubt).
>>98050280It's weird how furries always try to split hairs (haw haw) like this. There's no based version of being a furry. After all, it makes you a TOW fag, haw haw!
>>98046894I painted this man today.
>>98050306You can believe whatever you want, but I don't have to care about your hot dog water opinion either though. I just want the sexy vaguely SEA snake people in my warhammer instead of smelly hindoo subcontinetals
>>98050359>there's already cute lamias but I need animal faces!GW, do not hire this man. Disregard this man and all like him.
>>98049335These are great
>>98050356Looking good beastbro. Did you varnish it? If not I highly recommend it to lessen the paint chipping in the future. I usually do it before I do the base.
>>98050377Yes varnish is mandatory for metal models, but my plastics get it too so the finish is the same.
Friends want to do a 500pt lustrian tournament and i have a few boxes of Jade Obelisk from warcry. Thats two smaller base units, one with light weapons one with bows, and two 30mm base heavies with two hand weapon types and a melee hero and caster hero. Is that enough options for a lustrian themed chaos marauders list? maybe use some kitbashed kroxigor for the werewolves?
>>98050397Every time I see GW figures that look kinda cool I remember that assembly of modern GW kits is basically self harm.
>>98050404War Cry kits tend to be decent, sadly monopose, but decent.Shame they killed it to try and make Spearhead a foot in the door to get people into the worst edition of AoS.
>>98050417And then spearhead killed AoS as the main version people play. Really funny.
>>98046986I theorize that Sotek is the result of fervent Skink belief and need for a savior activating an Old One contingency plan for a new god to rise to defend their servants. Something like a blank chunk of divine/magical stuff that took on the prayers and needs of the Skinks. Thus a giant serpent that hates rats.
I'm starting a WAAAAGH! and I need some names for some gitz.Dubs gets to name the tribe or characterTrips get to name the WAAAAGH!

>>98047765Sorry for the ugly picture. Me and my group have just started playing, my third game this time against my mates Chaos Dwarves. I managed to take out his Flame Cannon in the first turn with a Spear Chukka. His Dreadquake dominated my infantry blobs with Dangerous Terrain. I managed to win with my 20 Blork Grimgor blob dominating, but I can’t figure out how to make trolls work. They keep stupiding and then fleeing when one dies. 2500 point game.
>>9805058990% of kislev isn't even russian
>>98050589Could be that. Which means we'll never get Kislev.
>>98050617No one cares Grzegorz.
>>98050617And yet that's the leading theory I always hear parroted about
>>98050589specialist games get minimal support

>>98050617doesn't matter, east european = russian
>>98050589I don’t think it’s that. They are doing a Vostroyan MTO and those guys are way more obviously Russian than Kislev, which is more pan Slavic. I think they are saving Kislev for 2.0 personally.
>>98050713Certainly the more logical reason. There's no way GW would sideline or cancel a major faction release over a war that has nothing to do with them or their setting. I'm looking forward to see what new models and refreshes come out with 2.0. I bet some new Dwarfs will come. some of those models are real rough.
>>98050713Fits with the whole "building up to Praag" thang they were pushing

>>98050615Trolls are just kinda bad outside Troll Horde and even then the best way to run that is to take 1 troll as a tax and then run a normal army instead.

>How all the battles I do play out in my head as we roll dice and moved dudes forward
>>98050589probably just the logic of introducing Kislev when they kick off the Great War properly, almost certainly as a launch faction for the next edition.
>>98050589This is just Old World as a whole, they've not even finished releasing Cathay yet.
>>98048426You will never be a beastman. You have no horns, you have no hooves, you have no mutations. You are a chaos player twisted by heavy metal and father issues into a crude mockery of the dark gods's perfection. All the "validation" you get is two-faced and half-hearted. Behind your back ungors mock you.The Ruinous Powers are disgusted and ashamed of you, your “allies” laugh at your ghoulish appearance behind closed doors.Demons are utterly repulsed by you. Thousands of years of corruption have allowed them to sniff out frauds with incredible efficiency. Even "Turnskins" who “pass” look uncanny and unnatural to a demon. Your hoof structure is a dead giveaway. And even if you manage to get a drunk nurgling to your herdstone, he’ll turn tail and bolt the second he gets a whiff of your diseased, infected "horns".You will never be happy. You wrench out a fake bray every single morning and tell yourself it’s going to be ok, but deep inside you feel the depression creeping up like a weed, ready to crush you under the unbearable weight.Eventually it’ll be too much to bear - you’ll buy a rope, tie a noose, put it around your neck, and plunge into the cold abyss. Your cultists will find you, heartbroken but relieved that they no longer have to live with the unbearable shame and disappointment. They’ll bury you with a herdstone marked with your birth name, and every passerby for the rest of eternity will know a man is buried there. Your body will decay and go back to the dust, and all that will remain of your legacy is a skeleton that is unmistakably human.This is your fate. This is what you chose. There is no turning back.
