Remember when you could take wargear?
Remember when there was so much cool shit your characters could take that they had to limit it?
Remember when conversions weren’t just accepted but encouraged?
Remember when the game wasn’t just meta chasing?
Remember when rulebooks were heavy and thick enough that they could stop a bullet and filled with complexity and universal special rules?
Remember hero hammer?
The Old World remembers.

What’s stopping you? Come to flavor country.

I have all of that in 6th Ed wfhb, why would I want to play the sloppified version?
>>
>>98545770
Rank and flanks are awful. Not to mention the game is lacking in having an identity of its own with a lack of flavor. I have two armies and one wip for tow but I’d sell it if the asking prices weren’t so fucking low.
>>
>>98545780
Is 6th Ed currently supported or getting updates?
Oh right.
>>
>>98545844
It doesn't need to

>but don't you want MORE product?

I'm good, thanks.

>>98545770
I play house ruled 6th edition with Ravening Hordes, friends only, no tournaments. It lets me focus on cool scenarios or battles. Peakhammer for me.
>>
Why would I play the woke version of warhammer?
>>
TOW looks cool, but I still like Warhammer Armies Project because of the extra armies and units
>>
>>98545844
That's a good thing unless you're slop-guzzling GW and hate having money.
>>
>>98545780
Because 6th is inferior in every possible way
>>
>>98545780
5th is peak. Yes it's Herohammer, but everything after made it a true wargame and that's just not what made GW games good back in the day. Even their board games had amusing, overpowered, just for the sake of it rpg elements. Making WHFB into a straight wargame with sensible math, a la Space Marine and Epic going the way of Epic 40000 might have been more balanced but if you want that play DBA.

All their games got tainted when they tried to make them into proper wargames and it gets worse with each edition. 8th is ridiculous. The transition between 2nd and 3rd 40k fucking killed off so much personality and fun alone. By 5th and 6th 40k is pozzed af

Most people refuse to remember in the 90s they squatted whole games and raised prices all the fucking time

I don't mind the idea of a line hammer, hell, it might be cool to see 3 lines of battles.
I just want better rules to simulate(ish) what would happen if those knights charged in (they would blow right through and probably cause the unit to flee in panic)
>>
>>98545844
Shouldn't you then not play TOW currently, but wait until it's in a final finished version (i.e. never)?
>>
>>98546232
Okay Grandad, calm down now, let's get you back under the covers and I'll find you a nice lead Orc model to lick just like when you were a lad and everything was better.

That's cool and all, but I don't want to keep buying new arcane journals and reading erratas on the web.
I should only need to buy the rulebook and one book containing the rules for my army, the rest should be optional and new rules can come in the next edition

You are a fucking embarrassment. Imagine needing GW to tell you to enjoy [nostalgic release].
>>
>>98546286
Linehammer got errata'd out of the game ages ago now.
>>
The only reason I play TOW over Fantasy is simply because of the increase in base size, don't give a shit about anything else, having more leeway to have my guys rank up while also being able to have all my guys interchangeably fit in whatever part of the unit I want them is in a comfort I can't move away from now. That said I don't give a shit about TOW lore or anything going on in it, as far as I'm concerned I'm still treating it as WHFB.

I like TOW because they keep dumbing down and streamlining 40K and AoS and stripping all the options from armies. Chaos can only take marks in one detachment and they give similar bonuses. Wtf? New oral codex is a fucking pamphlet.

didn't GW stole that concept from WoD: The Masquerade ?
>>
Battlemarch is actually what has finally made me taken the plunge. I dont really have a TOW scene around here. I live rural and any events that do appear in the closest city are all 40k. So instead of making a single 2k point TOW army I'm gonna make several 500 point armies for my family to play against each other instead.
