Let’s just make a new thread

For the dwarf players out there. How did you decide which hold to paint your dudes? All I can find in the army books are general tips like karaz-a-karak being blue and red or karak azul being blue. I like the idea of using different colors for the warriors' shields tho

I dont like porn. Can we just share bible verses instead to grab one anothers attention instead for pics?
>>
>>98213012
True. You can't stay mad at Arkhan, and plucking the Fay Enchantress off an apocalyptic battlefield during the chaos is pretty funny and in-character for him. And at least they incorporated the Man O' War cover art guy into the Kislev zerg rush and gave him a tabletop model, that was pretty cool too. What happened to the Empire is way worse and way more pathetic. I would be completely furious if I was an Empire-only guy. The Game of Thrones Syndrome making every Empire character forget castles and fortresses and invincible magical walls can actually be manned and used defensively instead of as a cool backdrop is particularly aggravating. Imagine a drawn-out ebb and flow End Times, with a non-retarded united Empire barely holding the line with the Auric Bastion to the last man, while the civil war victor in Bretonnia holds off the Beastmen, dorfs hold off the Skaven, united Elves hold off the O&G, etc. There are some salvageable ideas in the current ET canon, they just need work.
>>
>>98213057
Damn, call me a cuck all you want, but I've never and will never touch a 40k model with a 10 ft pole. Show some respect
>>
>>98213065
I desperately want to have an excuse to paint a 40gay Eldar army, but GW insists on making the game worse and worse with each new edition. Not even worth playing with recasts at this point. Even dying tranny game is probably in a better place in terms of rules (though no one actually plays it).
>>
>>98213060
My 2 favorite factions are Empire and WoC so End Times was a rollercoaster.
>>
>>98213060
It wasn't Arkhan who did that. Morgiana le Fay had defeated Arkhan soundly before, in Bretonnia, but he managed to ran away from the omni-lore soreceress who can teleport around and has scrying within her land,'cuz plot armor.

The whole "plucking off from the battlefield" was done by Drycha, and It was just horrible and retarded writing, that reduced Morgiana to an inanimate mannequin. The fae daughter of Ladrielle who can kill with a glance didn't even try to defend herself, while surrounded by grail knight at that, from Drycha - a mere lv 2 wizard of all people.

Not fun at all, it was spitefiction like the rest of end times, because it deprived Morgiana of her lifelong quest aside from massively trashing her. After having sdedicated her whole life raising the warriors that would stand with her and the Lady between Chaos and the world during the end times, Morgiana's place in the apocalypse is taking her place among them, riding by their side, bringing them healing and strength to the bitter end. It's not being wirtten off as a literal macguffin, tacked on to a story she contributed nothing to, that had nothing to do with her, and reduced to doing absolutely nothing. Fun part is that she was made into a useless macguffin, because the undead subplot would have been the exact same without her. That was a literally a copout for writers that didn't want to put in the work to write such a character where she belongs.

Like, if you don't care about Bretonnia or Morgiana le Fay, that's okay.

But this thing GW does where some factions or characters have to be the butt of the joke and trashed, is disgusting. Especially in a scenario that was the final run of a setting, the goodbye that should have given every character a cool exit, and could have been bittersweet for longtime fans of the setting.

A big fuck you to the people who enjoy a certain character or faction isn't my idea of a fun thing at all - I wouldn't have laughed if, say, Arkhan slipped on a banana peel and his head broke into a million pieces. But the way GW treated the Fay Enchantress during end times was the equivalent of that.
>>
>>98213012
You can be mad at the writers, the actual people who did that. The Fay wasn't even required for the plot to work from a narrative perspective. Take her away from that plot, nothing changes. She also had nothing to do with it. That was just people who didn't care and were just looking for a quick way to get rid of a character who would have required them to put actual work in, had she been in the final battlefield.

Drycha was beaten by Calard of Garamont when he was just a questing knight. I imagine a grail knight or the Enchantress would just stomp her.

drycha was empowered though. Also her powerlevel is really dependent on her environment.

>>98213310
I don't think she's strong in Bretonnia. That's Morgiana's turf, especially because it was near the forest of Chàlons --t that's literally Morgiana's home. And empower Drycha as much as you want, if she was beaten by a questing knight, a whole squad of grail knights and the Enchantress will make short work of her regardless. That's not even considering that the Enchantress can see the future and would have sent someone to deal with her and keep an eye on her long before she could even act.

Plus, Drycha specializes in illusions and hallucinations magic, which I'm pretty sure would be pretty weak against someone whose tityle is "the Fay Enchantress". So stupid.

11th edition 40gay takes all priority, understandably. Being a specialty game means slower releases but higher quality. I'll gladly take that trade-off, rather than constant new slop on the same level of quality as the horrendous Foot Knights or the Ogre-sized Empire general. If you want the inverse of that, take a look at the Inner Cities of Sigmar range, it's replete with new releases and yet each one is absolutely fucking vile.

That makes it worse. Imagine slaying the great champion of your people's primordial enemy then dying literally 2 seconds later to some other fucking guy. If they wanted him dead they should have just had him die from his wounds while fighting Queek, that would have been a hundred times better than lobotomizing him and having him get stabbed.
>>
>>98213552
Kislev is a day one buy for me but fuck I have fatigue of the same conversation 'kislev won't release because the war'. Kislev was never going to release in the first edition of this game since it's so obviously going to kick off the Great War narrative. They are doing a throwaway narrative for Cathay which is already going to end when Mao rushes back to the seal the bastion and then we'll never hear from them again.

>>98213918
I believe none of the '1.5 edition with new two army box' rumours, GW have virtually never considered 1.5 editions and given that this would have been decided at least two years ago it makes no sense.

I'd say yes. They wrote her like an inanimate mannequin, who despite her power (and despite being the embodiment of "be compassionate, but take no shit ever"), didn't evven try to defend herself. She did nothing, she just stood there. There's literally next to nothing about her, offscreened in one sentence. Moreover, it ignored Morgiana's ability to instantly reincarnate whenever her current host body dies.

Plus, it threw her whole point out of the window. After having sdedicated her whole life raising the warriors that would stand with her and the Lady between Chaos and the world during the end times, Morgiana's place in the apocalypse is taking her place among them, riding by their side, bringing them healing and strength to the bitter end. Instead, she was tacked on a subplot that had nothing to do with her for convenience, without being allowed to do one single thing. It's as if she was a non-entity.

>>
>>98214000
I still make the argument for Morgiana, because they didn't even allow her to try and defend herself. She was written like a literal inanimate mannequin. People don't even register what happened to her because in ET there's nothing except:

"now she's in Bretonnia, now she's not 'cuz reasons. Oh, btw, now she dead lol. Oh, one last thing: did you know she's the daughter of Ladrielle? Too bad we aren't going to do anything with that LMAO. Also, fuck you".

She got to do literally nothing. Nothing. Not even as little as *trying* to preserve herself. Disgusting.

>>
>>98214051
She's the lieral daughter of Ladrielle who reincarnates., and has been with Bretonnia since the very beginning. She has taken multiple names, Morgiana being the latest, but she has dedicated her whole life to raising people in Bretonnia to have the strength to be the bulwark that would stand with her and her mother against the forces of the end times. The reincarnation was also re-confirmed in Total War, that even says she has "host bodies", meaning she likely is a fae spirit.

I think the broad strokes of End Times were actually ok, but the devil very much is in the details.

The rape of Warhammer Fantasy is comparable only to what happened to Star Wars with TLJ. A fuck-up as dire as the End Times can't be considered accidental, it can only be borne out of malice. Complete and utter desecration of a classic setting beloved by all, and now a miserably inferior "replacement" tranny setting no one likes is dancing on its grave, cynically aping 40gay Space Marines and putting niggers in nonsensical, completely ahistorical Korean MMO armor to appeal to no one.

The setting and characters are beloved, the *game* had problems. Sales of minis are related to the game fare more than they are to the setting.

Had WHFB had merchandise like actual figures and stuff, it would have likely sold well. People who care about the story aren't going to buy a bunch of massively overpriced, disassembled models that are a pain to assemble, and that aren't even painted. That's what hobysts and players do.

Personally, I miss the time before TOW was announced, when the thread would talk about all the editions. I remember that time. I was there. It wasn't glorious, nor was it truly great, but it was better.
TOW has, if nothing else, gotten people to play the game again. However, do not get confused. It is not a good edition of WHFB by any means. One day, we will all be playing 3rd, 5th, 6th, 7th, and/or 8th again. I don't think TOW will be an edition people will be going back to once it's over.

The reality is that the only way for whfb to survive 2015 was going to be something kind of close to age of sigmar anyway.
Skirmish based ruleset complete with round bases, probably very loose points system (if any at all), significant reshuffling of factions/units (e.g. eternity host), and most notably a very big status quo shift. Probably something like a chaos empire or whatever was the plan with storm of chaos. Also bretonnians and tomb kings still gone. And of course, stormcast.
Some of these (like the points) would've been reversed pretty quickly, like it happened with AoS in our timeline too, but others wouldn't. Keep in mind gw in general was struggling too, even 40k had to go through gathering storm and dark imperium and everything that that entailed.
Ironically in a roundabout way we'll be getting something similar next year if the last world rumours are true.

I never thought of that but I think this is probably one of the best arguments of why should have stuck with the IP.

It actually seems to be picking up now more than ever with everyone adopting squarebase rules for legacy armies. I have a local rtt coming up with about 30 players, which is awesome considering that's about how many we get in a 40k rtt.
I'll actually probably be a little sad if we get a new edition & updated legacy rules/support- anything GW's inbred interns write will pale in comparison to all the fun shit sb's been bringing back in their drafts.

Fuck man, my sentiment exactly.

There was a resurgence of community based approach to the game. And for once the hobby truly belonged to the community.

ToW, by virtue of being "official", phagocytized everything else that Warhammer Fantasy had become up to that point.

I'm not saying that's necessarily a bad thing, but it's undeniable we lost something when GW reclaimed.

so much sovl, it was a crime. I like some of the balance changes in TOW, but increasingly I think the only true benefit is the return of old kits. Even then, third party stuff was getting really good. Would love GW to prove me wrong with something like a nice state troop update.

>>98214406
>However, do not get confused. It is not a good edition of WHFB by any means
Oh it absolutely isn't- I was hoping for a Heresy 2.0 type game where the rules were an tweaked version of an older edition- preserving the spirit of the edition but ironing out some of the issues it had.
Instead what we got was literally just some intern copy pasting huge chunks of text without editing them or modifying them 'because nostalgia,' leading to probably one of if not the worst modern rulesets GW has written.

GW could have worked with the guys behind 9th age or WAP, yknow, people that had more experience than pretty much anyone else with making and balancing warhammer fantasy battles, instead they got some interns that never played any of the games to half-heartedly release half the factions.

On another topic. I read Grudge Bearer recently. This was the first painfully unremarkable novel I’ve ever read. The only interesting bit that sticks out is learning that dwarf pillows are stuffed with goat hair and finely ground gravel. Although I’ve only ever read the first Gortrek and Felix omnibus for BL.

I tried playing high elves both in 8th and TOW and while I find how they look on the battlefield very beautiful, I think they're overpriced in points for what they do, especially in TOW.

Lizards are much better on paper. Haven't played with the list yet though. Getting rid of scaly skin was the biggest thing I wanted and everything on top of that is gravy, but its good gravy.
Slann have fun changes that I'm interested in trying. Blowpipe getting move and shoot makes a huge difference. Chameleon skinks are much better with ambush. Salamanders getting reserve move and move and shoot might make them undercosted and is the only one that might have gotten buffed too much. Fireleech bolas look great now and Razordons with Counter charge is great. All the big monster stuff is hard to judge though.

I'm biased because I started with 6th (also played 5th & 7th) but I would go with it. Everyone except Chorfs got an army book but nothing stops you from using the list from ravening hordes. Besides that you have many options. Additional army lists per book, a lot of materials from WD/Annuals, campaign books etc. - it's just very flexible if your group isn't centered about WAAC fags. Rules from 7th were close enough so that importing units from that ed is not an issue.

But no edition gave (and gives) me as much fun as 8th. Definitely the most interactive edition, where even when I was losing, it never felt like i wasn't somewhat in control of my army.

As far as gw is concerned that passage from G&F is not canon, nor something that gets even remotely considered or was ever remotely considered at any point beyond that page.
Beastmen are too irrelevant for their worldbuilding to be given any thought or have any character appear and warrant a description as a female, they're fodder, there are as many as the plot needs with no further explanation required beyond "mutants", their range is already done and not going to change anytime soon, and even then adding boobs to bestial races is seen as tasteless and problematic by people who are taken into consideration to greenlight these decisions.

>you have FULL creative control
all models that aren't in production receive a MTO run once per edition
each faction gets one book that's exclusively made of fluff, artworks, and a retrospective view of the previous iterations with commentary, and one book of rules and model showcases where the first half is for the models and builds in production, and the second half contains highly customisable rules for all those units, equipments and models that are not officially supported as part of the permanent range
full compatibility for aos models in tow through that last part as well, where different iterations of the same unit are particularly different they split into a parallel unit profile
arcane journals are for campaign supplements with atypical scenarios and armies of renown
you can make alliances of whatever percentage you want, with however many factions you want, as long as you stick to the alliances trees
rules are reworked so units move way more, both when you want them to move and when the opponent causes them to move, either because they're made to flee, are pushed away, or baited into a charge against your will
spells and other abilities the armies possess get expressed by drawing cards (standard gaming cards, with a table for reading them within the army's book, and a limited run of faction themed cards)
monsters and riders are split, you have to kill both before either dies, but each one has its own stats, saves and wounds
instead of rules for larger units, the rules are rewritten around the idea of multiple smaller units sticking close together acting as a large unit, and more organically getting broken apart, or wrapping around a target. this also means that elite units can work as lynchpins of lines of smaller troops (blocks of 3x3 to 5x5)
cannons are nerfed and made to scatter with extreme prejudice
the game turn structure is reworked to be IGOUGO for movements, and then alternated activations for combat (including combat movements)

the end times books (and storm of chaos) are visions of likely futures some characters got ahead of those times, the fixed timeline ends at karl franz's coronation, everything after that is not set in stone
the age of sigmar exists regardless of the fate of this world due to timey wimey multidimensional warp bullshit and because the realms were born with the catastrophe instead of the end times

if you send a cool enough conversion or battle report to white dwarf, the conversion or event will be canonised first in a white dwarf and later in a yearly arcane journal that collects the year's community contributions

each arcane journal must come with pages you can print to make your cutout paper scenery for the scenarios in the supplement, as well as the banners, insignia and colours of the factions involved

>>
>>98220002
My friends and I were discussing legacy factions the other day and we thought it would be cool to include them as supplements for existing factions. Like a chaos arcane journal including a mortal+demons detachment or a few lizardmen units working with HE. We even discussed adding kislev as an arcane journal for the empire, but some factions are easier to use as addons than others. VC and skaven work on their own, and dark elves could be "allied" with HE as well, although VC working with a hypothetical and unlikely vampire coast faction would work pretty good

>hated 8th.
>It was just passing hordes forward and seeing who Purple Suns first.
>Maybe some interactions with rat darts.

Can't argue on personal experience, but I guess the people you play with have a large impact.

In 16 years now of playing 8th, I think I used hordes maybe 3 times, and I can recall all 7 times that a megaspell was truly game-ending.

But the fact that I can reliably attempt to charge shit with my dwarfs and most of the times I bring no artillery and still have a close game makes it a fun edition.
Not the best perhaps, but the most enjoyable.
>>
>>98220002
I'm getting rid of Parry because it's a retarded rule, I'm reversing the close order US requierement and I'm changing first charge so that It works at the first charge of a combat instead of the first charge of a game. Then I'm buffing monstrous infantry by giving them all some impact 1 or something like that.

Ruleswise
>magic
Add the magic phase and specific winds back, prioritize making magic more interesting, add universal spells that allows wizards to attack each other directly or better defend their unit against ballistics/magic directly.
>infantry
Make cavalry more expensive and infantry less expensive. Give every Core infantry unit the option to take a veteran version of itself in the style of Men at Arms —> Yeoman Guard.
>legacy/completely new factions
Dark Elves
Ogre Kingdoms
Refresh Wood Elves
Refresh Bretonnian plastics and redo the Foot Knight kit ASAP
End the edition with Vampire Counts
>changing anything about the arcane journals
Make them fucking free.
>tampering with the lore
Either start moving things forward and introducing more new timeline-definitive characters for Age of Three Emperors Empire, Bretonnia, dorfs, and Orcs, or forget the TOW timeline altogether and go down the Storm of Chaos timeline. Ottilia IV, Lutwik, Helmar, Louen Orcslayer, whoever is High King now, Thane Thorgrim, etc.

One of the most retarded take possible. It's like you've never even played the game once. Cavalry is absolute trash and infantry shits on everything since 1.5

Do they really? If so, tell me how, because my chosen always wind up doing dick-all and dying immediately after charging anything. Literal chinese rice-homunculus peasants?

Cav can't touch infantry since 1.5. You'd have to be extremely retarded to ask for infantry to be even cheaper than it is now when fucking vanilla goblins start combat with +6 combat res and a 4+ armor save

>>98221473
Yes, I agree, which is why I didn't say anything about making infantry cheaper and instead asked how exactly I'm supposed to make my chosen knights do anything instead of just getting shit.
>>
>>98221531
I wasn't implied you did, I was just pointing out the other anon was retarded and you can't really do anything about your chosen knights except have them pick easy fights against other types of units or join a fight already bogged down with your own infantry.

But dragon ogres are just better imo

How come GW never tried to make Knightly Orders they're own faction like a fantasy Space Marine equivalent? Instead we got the same ugly sculpts for 30 years. Don't say Brittonia, because that implies GW gave a shit about them.

normal knights don't sell as much as space knights, and they already kinda had a whole faction of knights with bretonnia already

No other changes.

It's irrelevant to the balance of the game all together anyway, literally just play bigger games with more points or change the character/core points limits requirements.

>Beastmen are too irrelevant for their worldbuilding to be given any thought or have any character appear and warrant a description as a female, they're fodder, there are as many as the plot needs with no further explanation required beyond "mutants",
Like how GSC's are treated in dark millenia, Custodes have a similar amount of books as GSCs, and I don't need to tell you what happened there.
>and even then adding boobs to bestial races is seen as tasteless and problematic by people who are taken into consideration to greenlight these decisions
Who said boobs, particularly on the female lizardmen, I wasn't even thinking of jugs. Nobody said anything about knockers. Female Custo models aren't wearing boob plates or anything like that, also the people we are talking about were fans of Abby (I feel like a shit poster mentioning that name) and large swafts of them say sex and gender aren't the same thing. Anyways lore is mostly textual, canonizing "female" lizardmen and beastwomen that behave like beastmen is an additional "s" and a "er" instead of a "im". Non-described characters sex/gender is literally a matter of pronouns.

They had almost everything already, and even if a hypothetical tow reintroduction didn't use the models that aos is hogging, they could still make do with various other equivalents, especially if we count conversions like the hellpit list to add armored/mutant/techy rat ogres, or chimerats and shit, or the cauldron of a thousand poxes for pestilence.

I mean, you follow that with a non-sequitor, but Custodes imperically have a similar number of books to GSCs, unless you want to do a recount.
I think "doesn't matter" would be more apt than "no" which is just wrong.
>no, they are still human enough to get pov characters
What are you talking about? A. the inside B. the outside
A. They're partially hive mind creatures, that are partially human and their non-human part intrinsically dooms them to a bad end after they die. Neither can form normal societies (usually, all Warhammer is inconsistent Warhammer). I don't see the big diffrence.
B. What they have an animal head? Fuck the version of The Lion King where they can't make facial expressions, was like the 5th most watched movie, when are we going to move past this?
>boobplate
Okay I was wrong, but I never noticed the Custodes had pec plates before today either, I have never seen a finished Custodes model in person.
Anyway the principal still stands. You don't have to put females in boob plate, I was looking for an example, but now you'll have to imagine it in hypothetical.
>doesn't work for beastmen because they're masculine looking
They look how you want
>>
>>98222253
>Anyway the principal still stands.
No, it doesn't, you missed the points, responded with bullshit or pointlessness.
Genecults are not the same as beastmen, custodes are not the same as neither genecults or beastmen, beastmen models look the way they look and aren't changing. you cannot convey female beastmen without feminine features on the style the models are following.

You're clueless, delusional and out of touch, take anon's advice >>98222083

You tried to bring up custodes as example of a niche faction getting changed to add women to them.

You missed the fact the point wasn't that beastmen are niche, but that they are irrelevant fodder, custodes aren't fodder, and even genecults which you also brought up are less like fodder than beastmen.

You keep lacking the most minimal amount of awareness and critical thinking, take people's advices instead of pretending your cluelessness can pass for a thought.

Yes and you understand that being similar in one aspect is not the same as being the same?
>You missed the fact the point wasn't that beastmen are niche, but that they are irrelevant fodder
I don't see why some things in universe role would motivate it to be changed more than its out of universe popularity. You can change something's role. You can't artificially force popularity.
> even genecults which you also brought up are less like fodder than beastmen.
The GSC are litteral fodder, abundant low quality feed. And Narrative fodder in that they are a threat that feeds a better threat, like how wheat is a food that feeds a steak. They lack the ability to be relavant to any grand narrative because victory means the subfaction you were following dies anyway.

>>98220002
Full creative control?
Revert Frenzy to all combats not just on the charge.
Using 2 hand weapons counts as a hand weapon for all bonus effects (gromril etc) but gives -1 WS.
Vision arc changed to 180 degree drawn from front of unit.
Skirmish cav get the -1 to be hit by ranged attack.
Magic resistance is a command range aura instead of a target so it works against things like enemy buffs and vortexs. Rename it to magic drain if you really feel the need.
Flaming attacks reroll 1s to wound. Add new keyword that prevents this for units that make sense to have it.
Things that boost casting cap out at wizard level. So a level 1 wizard only gets +1 at most. A level 2 can't have higher than +2 to cast.
Half wizard level casting bonus rounds down instead of up.
Front rank of models count towards rank bonus if it hits min rank size.
If a charge goes further than the units movement stat it gets to fight with front two ranks.
Add brace for impact charge reaction for infantry when charged in front arc. Units with shields get +1 armor, units with spears get +1 to hit, spear and shield units get both. Using brace for impact turns off press of battle.
Behemoths get +1 bonus combat rez.
Champions give +1 bonus combat rez capped to 1.
Stupid causes the unit to move straight forward its movement during compulsory movement. Counts as charge if it touches the enemy. Add new keyword that makes stupid march speed forward.
All wizards get one of their lore(s) signature spells in addition to their rolled spells, still limited to wizard level for number of spells cast per turn.
Skirmish units ignore their own models for all LoS purposes.
Characters count their wounds as their unit strength.
