>>98747920Ehhh I wouldn't say so. They're not too complicated to paint, but they're a pretty tricky army to play and not the cheapest either. Wouldn't say it's a bad army to start with or anything but there's easier choices. Though remember the best beginner army is always the one you actually want to collect.
>>98747929>TQ>HopesCan’t have that with tzeentch lmao, so they’re probably gonna stay irrelevant. My arcanite cults will likely find a way to navigate through the impending chaos.>fears There are supposedly different human factions than cities with last world? While I’m honestly excited to see what they look like, I’m not sure I can adapt my cult to work with anything that’s not with the cities of sigmar, mainly the ones in ghyran. >expectations They’ll continue being jobbers with narry a mention
Are Stormcast basically Order Undead or is there shenanigans that circumvent this reading of them?
Do the End of Edition campaigns include new models for each grand alliance? So we can expect stuff for death, chaos, order and destruction?
>>98748031Pretty much. Seems like it’s mostly just center pieces. Not very excited for the rumors for them personally.
>>98747929>Hopes, fears, and expectations for /yourdudes/ in the End of Edition campaign?Dude I don't think Idoneth will live to see the end of the next edition, if we do PLEASE GOD, not another foot hero
>>98747929Well let's see what's happened. CoS has dropped the elves and dwarves.>hopesThat somehow the army of renown sticks around in 5e and I can larp CoS as it should be.>fearsCan't cuck CoS any further, so honestly none.>expectationsMy dudes die in an explosion in Tempest's Eye and their's an extra paragraph about how all the non-humans never came back.
Can’t wait to purchase this game product
>>98748031Yeah the current rumours are a wizard tower cogfort for Order, a chaos dragon for Chaos, a Ironjawz wyvern for Destruction and a zombie gargant for death
>>98748040what rumors
>>98748075>>98748072
>>98748076>>98748072>No seraphon>No IDK>Even more CoS wankingI am so tired of CoS getting everything. Even SCE feel neglected now.
>>98748070Why are you such a faggot
>>98748085Well seraphon is also rumored to get that quetz still. We also don’t know about the temple guard and endless spells.
>>98748070Go back to /wfg/ you spiteful little man
>>98748072Fuuuuuck dragons are so fucking boring, especially when we just got a fucking chaos dragon
>>98747929My hope for my faction is a new Infantry unit, I know people wanted foot Akhelians but I think Akhelians all being mounted is a key part of the visual design of IDK and highlights the caste system well. So instead I would pick Isharann infantry as a unit which would be a mashup of Eldar Warlock Conclave and High Elf SwordmastersAlso give me a Merwyrm mount
>>98748072The cogfort makes sense since they'd just need to add an upgrade sprue, but the rest? I think the chaos dragon and wyvern are TOS models and the zombie gargant was some conversion someone was working on, I don't see them putting a gargant in anything other than SoB
>>98747929>TQSkaven really feel like a complete army at this point, so I don't know. The only things they *need* are new Plague Monks, and maybe a return of giant rats or rat wolves so that Moulder isn't just "rat ogres and bigger rat ogres and bigger bigger rat ogres and the HPA".Helsmiths aren't my dudes, but they could be if they got some better "big draw" models. The bullbot is fucking embarrassing and the artillery is underwhelming, but a Lammasu or Hellcannon could do a lot to make the army more appealing.
>>98748210Personally wouldn’t mind it. Granted I’d prefer drakes. Also the last dragon was a bit of a let down for a “chaos” dragon. I’m not expecting gore oozing out of every orfice but despite all its detail and its height I found it lacking. Really hoping gw follows the zombie dragon design when they make future dragons. >>98748222>Isharann infantry as a unitIdk why that idea never propped up in my head.
I like reading about Stormcast was that skaventide book any good
>>98748333No. Read plague wars instead.
>>98748333all warham books are worse than anything else you'd encounter
>5th edition has a female named skaven and she gets a book where she kills a grey seer because he was a little problematic (killed her entire clan for a ritual, enslaved her for several years, and thinks girls have cooties)How would you feel
>>98748362I coom
>>98748333No, it was awful. Like yeah pulp is pulp, but this is "cocky girl child with magic" tier slop. If you want a decent read with Stormcast in it; read Hamilcar's book. Josh Reynolds knows how to write. You can tell when he has to phone it in(see Realmgate Wars) and when he actually wants to write. This book is of the latter.
>>98748340Plauge garden*
>>98747929Why is it... nevermind
>>98748017They are in a loose enough meaning of the word
>>98748496Manflayer is also really good despite the fact he was forced to end it differently than he wanted to.
Anons I made a fucking mistake, I assembled Ma today for my gargants (rip that fucking army unless you got the rockthrowers but whatever) I decided to kitbash a mancrusher too.So I did some miliput work to give him a landschnect hat and little sash (sash isn't the best but I slapped some shields on it for fun) and he's chuggin' a whole barrel of ale. Then I used some old deffkopta blades and scrapped up a sword. Only problem is I did this all in one go with greenstuff and glue and I'm horrified that when I wake up tomorrow he's gonna be in fuckin pieces.
>>98748362I feel you should go back.
>like the big AoS centerpiece minis>get a morathi-khaine for $144>realize a few weeks later there's a morathi-khaine plus 15 of her goons that you're gonna be running anyways if I ever actually play this game for $215 and could have saved $70Oops
>>98748707Kek
>>98748670Just go to sleep and let Fate roll the dice on that one.Also, post scans of the battletome, please and thank you
>>98748362the only two options for slaken female characters are as non-breeders who look and behave identically to male skavenor as breeders who are huge fat ugly monstrous creatures weaving a network of political intrigues from their nestno other option should exist
why do the chaos warriors look so badass while the good factions warriors look so lame?
>>98748906because they used space marines as the template instead of chaos warriors
>>98748670Pls show me
>>98748017As a rule of thumb they're not actually dead.
>>98748017>Are Stormcast basically Order Undeadno
>>98748910is there a good guy equivalent that looks just as cool thats not those guys with the human faced hlemets? Im new to AOS if you cant tell btw
>>98748017A guy who flatlined but got revived in the hospital obviously isn't undead, but what if i revived him 1 day later?Are the guys from Return of the Livign Dead that never "died" but became zombies after bretahin in the zombie gas realy undead?Is Lazorus undead after Jesus rezed him after he already started rotting?Defintion of undead is blury
>>98749064Stormcast are taken before death though, they're zapped away while living
>>98749083Which is why Gelt got zapped 1000000 years before Sigmar even started
>>98749056nope, sorryon the side of good you can only choose between elves, dwarfs, basic humans, lizardmen, and not!space marines
>>98748362the skaventide book has a female Skaven iirc
>>98748070when this was first posted people disputed that it was obviously 40k but nowadays AoS looks the same I hate 4th so much
>>98747929>TQI know Spiderfang are getting squatted. They'll do something like tease Moonclan saving a matriarch with mushrooms or something but they'll genocide the rest. Wanderers will unironically show up as City Aelves for a last stand against chaos despite CoS pogroms just before. I hope Hobgrots exploit the Chaos to sack a Chorf city, hinting at their expansion while ushering in animosity as Chorfs cut ties and enslave a part of their kingdom as payment for stolen goods.
>>98749084Anvils are explicitly stated to be an exception. No other Stormhost is composed of souls like that.
>>98749106one exception, not the sole exception
>TQ>HopesMannfred dies.>ExpectationsNot a whole lot>FearsMannfred will not die.
>>98749136name another
>>98749136Stormcast are taken on the brink of death not after. Anvils are the only Stormhost made from old souls
>>98748210>when we just got a fucking chaos dragonThat was for TOW, AoS needs it's own Dragon
>>98749199Don't make me point out the furfag disasters the previous ones were.
>>98749199AoS doesn't have dragons, we get draeconith draekekyn
I like how the retards above compelaty ignore the fact Stormcast die more than once
Minigame stuff

>>98749182>>98749190The quotes that say the anvils are peculiar say that MOST other stormcasts are taken upon death, not all of them.The celestant prime definitely wasn't taken on death and definitely doesn't belong to any specific stormhost.
>>98749283I'm going to expect more necromunda stuff, perhaps the zealot guys.
>>98749271I must say that I camel to enjoy how much of a warzone shithole Embergard has become.>>98749277Gargants are Balkan, it all makes sense.
>>98749268This will kill AoSGodzillabros we eating good this will be the best game ever I hope they keep the monsters of AoS at least to use for it We can put the end times rumours to rest because this confirms it
>Stormcast die! They're undead! SCE are zapped away before death hence the lack of corpses.
>>98749312>4x right feet>2x left feetI hope it's just because the other side of the cardboard is mirrored here
>>98749376Just because their corpses turns into electricity doens't mean they are alive retard.
This brawl seems like a good fun
>>98749412But is it worth the £195 price tag?
>>98749420You can buy it for ~160, so it looks like a fine deal if you want at least one and some fun
>>98749420I think if you and a friend both want a mega but haven't gotten around to it, it's a really nice deal AND you get a little meme gamemode out of it.That is however a relatively specific set of circumstances, otherwise it's kind of an odd product.
>>98749450it's meant to trick people who want to play giants into a discount box whose discount is eaten up by stuff they would have never purchased otherwise, and by cutting corners on the extra sprues for brodd and beastsmasher
>>98749420It is cheaper than buying 2 megas separatly
>>98749466Even when not factoring in the terrain it's still a 30% discount on buying two megas, whlist of course not including brodd and the hammer option. It's decent if you can find somebody to split it with, or are interested in starting a SoB army with at least 3 megas, but otherwise not so much. Like I said, relatively niche market.
>>98749490>Even when not factoring in the terrain it's still a 30% discount on buying two megas, whlist of course not including brodd and the hammer optionthey were £120 on release, it's a 20% discount
>TQ>Hope Helsmiths get a much needed range expansion (relatively) soon, and they're given something meaty narrative-wise for the end of the edition - maybe some headbutting with the new Khazalite faction.>ExpectNew releases with be further way than they ought to be, and Helsmiths will not be involved in the eoe narrative at all.>FearHelsmith will be treated like every other dwarf faction in AoS. Their range will remain anemic and they will be functionally irrelevant to the setting.
>>98749466What would even be a retail price for 2 mega in a box?I think it is a fine box with nice game inside, but it was a missed opportunity to release new Mega legs. They could have tied it to this box and it would be instantly more tempting for SoB palyers
>>98749490It might literally be all of the older stock of pre Brodd mega sets that they didn't move before the Brodd set came out. The terrain is just left overs from unsold warcry/spearhead printings, once again repurposed.I am generally confused as to why they included the stupid game, they don't do cardboard printing in house, so that is literally the most expensive part of the set, production wise.So much time, money and effort is wasted over at GW it boggles the mind.
>>98749572>The terrain is just left overs from unsold warcry/spearhead printingsI'm relatively sure it's new bits of the same style.
>>98748707Did you make this please say yes>>98748362Cute female but I agree with the other guys mostly
>>98749086No, it doesn't.
>>98749201at this point what *hasn’t* been a furfag disaster
>>98749201I think karazai gets more flakk than it deserves
>>98748496>>98748520I read most Stormcast books that’s why I asked GW hasn’t had paid shit all fuck to AoS fiction so I haven’t been paying attention for a while
>>98749585After seeing the terrain firsthand I'm inclined to agree. It's no bigger than the spearhead corner walls and there's little roof space to set models up on.
>>98749331Tow does have empire refreshes in their rumors so maybe
>>98747929>HopeSomething cool >FearsNothing>ExpectationsNothing, and bad rules>t IJ
>>98749572>It might literally be all of the older stock of pre Brodd mega sets that they didn't move before the Brodd set came outbrodd is just an upgrade sprue, they would've put any unused stock into his box anyway
>>98748767He survived! Alas I do not have a scan for the battletome.>>98748974Here's the pics I took last night. Gonna need to clean him up now but at least the base has held.
>>98749792Holy shit anon I love it
>>98749792that is a great gargant.
>>98749792Critical levels of sovl
>>98749792Nice
>>98749792The soulest
>>98749792>identifying_kino.jpeg
>scrolling xitter at work>random joke art comes across the timeline>pretty funny, let's see what else the artist has>fucking full of aos stuff including tahlia pornwhat the fuck, the original post I saw was wholly unrelated to aos or warhammer in general too
>>98750329You can't say that and not share the sauce brother
>>98750329LightningGuard, yeah?
>>98749201You keep trying to push this meme
Are there any books that follows a parent trying to just keep their children alive in the mortal realms? Something that follows the normal guy in the midst of all the insane shit that follows the realms.
>>98749277I forgot Gargants came from Ghyran. So Ymog and Behemat’s myth might be true
>>98749600Yes (the edit)
>>98750462I like that guy, I'd be shocked if he wasn't lurking the thread
>>98750550He’s at the forefront of the barren AoS fanart community imo. Gets stuff done QUICK and in quantity.
>>98750576Wonder if I could push him to make some sexy ghoul ladies...
>>98750462That's the guy, yeah. The original tweet I saw was a drawing of the discord mascot or something.No way he's not an /aosg/ lurker. Make some namarti art next if you're here brother
>>98750329And how much was furry porn, like 99% of the 'artists' out there
>>98749792Great job on the hat man it looks really cool. Can't wait to see it painted
>>98750518Neat mangaI’m curious about this too
>>98748017They're not undead, but Morr the (other) god of death is 100% involved in their creation so it's not a stupid thoughtChaos warriors who are exceptionally favored by their gods can be brought back to life too, so to think of them as the equivalent Warriors of Order is probably the closest analogy
>>98750637Nothing as far as I could see
>>98749056>is there a good guy equivalent that looks just as cool thats not those guys with the human faced hlemets?Yeah, they'll even kick the shit out of equal numbers of chaos warriors
>>98749056Dude, just go to GW's homepage and look for yourself.
>>98750462it's so unfortunate the only artist we have is trash. I'm sure he'll improve in time but god that chickenscratch no anatomy understanding shit is rough beggars can't be choosers I guess
>>98749334We don't know who prime is though? He could be another first forged
>>98750847a white dwarf basically confirmed he's karl franz, despite what was said during his introduction
>>98750839Beggars can't be choosers
>>98750839I dunno, I got a thing for more distinctive styles even if they're not necessarily perfect in some perceived way. There's something to be said about an artist you can recognize. I'm gonna dm him and see if he does any work for hire...
>>98750839This is still really funny.“Read latest Daughters of Khaine battletome. The funniest part was Morathi doing that”
>>98750862That makes no sens so whatever retarded hints illiterate interns throw it's safe to ignore them
>>98750847Does prime actually do anything? What makes him so special.
>>98750917He sometimes bumps his hammer on chaos warriors and redeems them from chaos.
>>98750922Isn't that the reason Archaon doesn't wanna fuck with Ghal maraz, because if he gets hit with it he'll wind up getting redeemed. But Sigmar doesn't wanna fuck with Archaon because he has the playground "I kill anything" sword.
>>98750931The fact that Archaon went through with the whole "kill 6 billion" phase doesnt help sigmar risking it either, probably.
>>98750948I mean, I remember hearing somewhere it's like "if you have even the smallest sliver of good in you there's a chance" and he used to be a priest so it's entirely feasible.
>>98750931He doesn't want to get hit by the hammer because then he would get hit by a hammer.
>>98750993This is where the question arises of how fucking strong is archaon? Since we've heard him have these amazing feats of wiping out whole civilizations and beating giant god monsters single handedly. But he's not a GOD he's just a pseudo demi-god. But then he still doesn't wanna fight Siggy or Nagash in a 1 on 1 because he's sure he'll get his ass beat.
>all the spearheads that I'm interested are no longer fucking available Fuck off GW
chaos gargant soon friends!
>>98751007He's however strong the current piece of lore/fluff/story needs him to be.
Are all the dark elf models just completely gone
>>98750917He's like Sigmar's equivalent to Saint Celestine from 40k or the Green Knight from BrettoniaHis soul is inside Ghal Maraz, so even when he dies he reforges instantly and Sigmar can always call him back to Azyr to be thrown wherever in the realms again and again
>>98747929Targets are getting Warhammer Heroes AOS boxes now. Got Kenzo. Dunno what sort of colors I want to paint him in. I was thinking inspiration from the Drake Knight armor from Elden Ring. Which is already pretty close to the default look but darker with more of a blue steel look.Also regarding the Warhammer stores new free mini replacement program, does anyone know if the painting it in store option is completely optional? How are they gonna handle gluing the minis if you need them to dry before handling?
>>98750903I really like his art if only because it has the vulgarness to it thats kinda rare to see. Reminds me a bit of newgrounds stuff. He can definitely improve his art and I look forward to it.
>Archaon gets dechaosed from getting one tapped by Ghal Maraz>Forsakes his name and wears little armor because he's sad about being evil for 1 sigbillion years>The lady with the demon spear becomes the new everchosen>The chaos gods' one unified demand is for her to beat this nameless faceless sigmarine's ass for eternity + 5 minutes
>>98751086Dok is still an army.
>>98751260He draws characters kinda long. like idk it just feels stretched vertically just enough that something feels off but not enough to be obvious.
>>98751269He meant proper delves not the naked elf ladies. The evil high elves with evil swords and evil hats.
>>98751268>The lady with the demon spear becomes the new everchosenBelakor ropes
>>98751289SOON
>>98751191paint him as if he was cosplaying as a seraphon
>>98750903this dude must browse /aosg/
>>98751289Yeah like the old druchi stuff, armored elves with hydras and dragons and shit, I thought they used to show up on the cities of sigmar page
>>98748088>>98748105>samefag and the fatty in the pic relatedIf the mirror disgusts you, you have only yourself to blame
harbingers and these guys make me wanna buy OBR
>>98751748I feel like something must be wrong with me because I’m increasingly drawn to Chorf models. Urak Taar and the cohort are so good.
>>98750751Morr is still around? I thought he was devoured by Nagash or whatever>>98750917He was able to attack with the force of a concentrated supernova iirc so he’s pretty strong
>>98751792I like all the death stuff, I wish gravelords actually fucking had more vampires in itI've just been debating on more spearheads to pick up
>>98751007He’s pretty damn strong. If we take some of the first promotional art literally we see him subsuming what are presumably stars/planets. Beyond that it’s hard to say.
>>98751803>Morr is still around?ehh kinda
>>98751803>Morr is still around? I thought he was devoured by Nagash or whateverNot all of him, he's significantly weaker than he used to be (And in AoS he's called Morrda)But he's firmly Sigmar aligned and when a Stormcast starts going too crazy from being reforged too much, he allows them a true final death via one of his blessed executioners in the Ruination chamberHe was always vaguely mentioned as being around since 2nd ed, but him becoming much more important in 4th is one of the few cool new lore bits from this edition
>>98748017They are closer to Order Demons, and basically were during a very small pocket of time in 1st edition alongside Seraphon.
>>98751900>>98751933NTA but what is the desalination between dead and undead? It feels like the line between necromancy and Shyish is blurred or is it a venn diagram now? WFB went long ways to talk about how necromancy was literally radioactive and gay and cringe in AoS it’s like a daily occurrence. That blurb makes me think the difference is that undead are usually subordinated or enslaved while the dead are typically free-willed?Also checked
>>98752012Basically we’re is doing some heavy lifting there considering they’re pretty much unchanged it’s been a linear progression
>>98750839>>98751260You need certain level of vulgarness for images to retain soul of the artist.
>>98752027It's really not heavy lifting to state directly what they had in exactly one book, order demons tag that got taken out pretty quick since GW decided not to go in said direction.
>>98752021Nagash corrupted the wind of Shyish when he became a god, so necromancy itself is part of the wind nowThat being said, yes there is a difference between undead that have been raised by necromancy and "natural" undead like ancestor spirits, etcMorrda is still about the peaceful, final death that even Nagash can't come back from. While in the realm of Shyish you can communicate with the various afterlifes that exist there, but once they're absorbed by the Nadir they leave Shyish forever and nobody has any idea what happens to those soulsStormcast aren't undead though, Morrda just lets their souls be worked on by Grungi's smiths and reforged
I think we oddly glazed over the part where Gorkamorka killed some space entity and shards of its eldrich corpse falling down is the reason why kruleboyz are evil
>>98752181nah
>>98752181is this schizolore or non-lore like the idea that dwarfs are short because gargants stomped on them?
Now that 4th edition is done, how do we fix 5th?
>>98752315Christmas style RoRs become a bigger thing
>>98752315They’ll resell you your factions old rules from 2nd edition
>>98752315Nuke New York.
>>98752315Heroes can attach to specific units (infantry -> infantry, cavalry -> cavalry, etc) but monsters stay soloRegiment system was a decent idea that is awful to try to retrofit onto existing armies, probably best to just get rid of it OR make Regiments give some sort of bonus to the army, like DetachmentsMake a Mighty Battles campaign system, including official map tiles
>>98752315Honestly, remove the double turn. It’s too hard to both disincentivize gaming it for someone who looks like they’re “behind” while also making it good for the underdog to actually have gotten it. More and better choices on hero trait, artifact, spell lores, and other 1 per army tables.Subfactions/Battle formations expanded by offering an optional hero trait and artifact. Better special rules choice for picking that subfaction. Remove AoA and AoD.Take the terrain = objectives thing from 40k.Remove Once Per Turn (Army).Remove the possibility of doing nothing on the 2/3+ rolls. I paid points for a unit to do that thing, if it has the opportunity to, I should be able to do it or else I’m gonna want to roll 2/3+ to not pay the points for that unit, too. Remove regiment restrictions and instead regiments are 1 commander and 1-2 sub-commanders + 3 units(4 for general reg), with those two as new keywords or included in the battle profiles page. That’s off the top of my head that also fulfills the need to not make indexes.
>>98752364>>98752382Oh, thanks.Alternate to my commander/sub commander idea is attaching foot heroes to units via battle profiles or shared keywords.
>>98752364>including official map tilesWhy don't they already sell that? I think the last time they included something like it was the map in Firestorm.
>>98752315every army and battlefield set gets a deck of cards of random events, opportunities, and effectsinstead of controlling an objective by standing with as many models as possible inside a circle you just stand closest to it and if the enemy is as close to it as you are then either both or neither get shitthe prices of boxes are now the point costs, and the stats and rules of units get rebalanced around thoseyou can field multiple small armies from different factions, as long as the total points value is met and the armies selected stick to an ally matrixbasic troops have recursive mechanics as a common thing, while large models have personalised damage tables depending on where and how they've been hit, including specific ways to interact with other large modelsmortality is diminished severely and instead mechanics that push and bait enemy units are commonmovement trays to turn units of 20 models into 5 larger bases of 4 models are implemented
>>98752315Alternating activationsMore traits and artifactsPay for models in a unit instead of one squad/reinforced (like oldhammer/tow does)Actually keep successful seasonal units instead of throwing them all out when the new season starts
>>98752382>remove once per turn (army)A take held by people who either want to go back to the glory days of 9 stormdrakes/dracoths, or by people who have given it no thought. Irritating though it may be, this change has made lists infinitely more diverse as opposed to taking 6 of the same thing. Tables look like proper armies because of this rule.
>>98752477Couldn’t rules with that just have limited uses per turn instead of either once or infinite?
Armies look like a case of singleton sometimes to me idk.
>>98752477I was in a rush to type my original block, but I should’ve clarified that they could add a number of uses per turn. Or it could have a reduced effect or harder to pull off for each subsequent use. It just fucking sucks to pay the same amount of points for two of the same units and then only one ever able to do what it says on the box. It just feels like punishment rather than restriction.
>>98752486>Get rid of once per turn (army)>Add twice per turn (army)I would rather just suck it up and run one reinforced unit. It's restrictive but it's elegant. Going past that you start to get into the territory of putting a bunch of tokens on stuff or remembering which two of your three identical units did the thing.
>>98752486>>98752549you fools, now EVERYTHING is "pick up to 3 X units, pile-in, and do D3 mortals"!!!!
It'd be nice if we didnt need to keep track of too much stuff too.
Honestly requiring rules and lore guys to sit down and talk every thursday afternoom or whatever the fuck would already go a long way. What the fuck do you mean the manglers have less rend on their maw attack than a cave squig?
>>98752528I think I understood that here >>98752549 and I stand by this reply. 4e is actually great from a list building and variety perspective. People HAVE to make their lists interesting simply because you can't run just the most recent OP warscroll ad nauseum. Yes, 2e was cool because you could run a list of three different armies in a Chaos or Order soup, and the abilities were exciting and flavorful, but at the end of the day, you either accepted a 35% win rate or you bought six of the same list in order to play endless mirror matches against an identical list.
>>98752587>People HAVE to make their lists interesting simply because you can't run just the most recent OP warscroll ad nauseum.I don’t disagree with you, but this would be a better situation if all factions had similarly sized unit rosters. There’s a reason IDK is basically forced to spam eels or last years sharks. Because the faction has both an internal balance and unit choice issue and not taking advantage of them was actively handicapping yourself. Just because a list is “interesting” in that it has a wide unit variety doesn’t mean it’s going to be fun to play or play against. We’ll have to see how the recent foot hero restriction lifting pans out, but up until now it felt more like I was playing a “build” instead of my army.
>>98752211You literally can’t prove that’s false

>>98750903mannn it sucks when artists don't have open DM's, I wanna comm this fine lad.
>>98752868One day there will be smoke and ash themed fire Dawi. Just like there will be forest-fire themed fire Dawi based on trees that need natural forest fires as part of their reproductive cycle. Then there will be steam and hot-spring themed fire Dawi based on underground magma that turns water into superheated or supercritical steam, sometimes used for geothermal energy.
>>98752181>>98752843But is there anything showing its true
>>98750862No it didn't lmao
>>98752930that sounds like a dirty metaphor>>98752987all of that sounds so cool anon please tell GW to put them in
I wonder what a new gloomspite spearhead would look like, no warcry warband to recycle and most of their stuff is pretty new too so they can't double up on a kit from 2009 or whatever either.Will they be forced to make another actually good discount box by process of elimination?
>>98753060>filenameWrong thread

Could anyone share DoK 4e tome scan?
>>98752868GW needs more wheel & deal dwarfs.
>>98752549Whenever I think about the plague of once per turn army, I think of the maw grunta gougers. It only makes sense to take one atm cause only one can use the ability. And we have an AoR meant to focus on them
>>98752570Hey, speaking of that. AoSReminders is back.https://www.reddit.com/r/ageofsigmar/comments/1wtnnpx/aos_reminders_is_back_i_took_some_time_off_when/https://aosreminders.com/
>>98752868Give acid mud powers for magma character.
>>98753123You would need three to actually match the other spearheads in price.Would be kind of kino though>arachnarok spider with spiderfang warparty>skitterstrand arachnarok>webspinner shaman on foot (from one of the kits)>spider riders>throw in a sneaky snuffler unit
Are there models that show what the Tyrion /fit/ aelves look like?
>>98753244Models. No. They're just LRL models painted like this.
>>98753244https://files.catbox.moe/6i2mka.jpg
>>98753244That'd be the Vanari units.
>>98753223If git players see this as a spearhead I feel like they'd be more concerned that spiders are finally getting squatted.It's like ogor players with Scrapglutt.
>>98753287Yeah, Spearheads have increasingly become more and more aggressively "stock clearing" coded.
>>98753299I don't think it's necessarily clearing stock (that's not really a thing) but they're definitely shittier now. Recycled warcry units, doubling up on (usually older) kits, including named characters, ... all to discourage you from buying multiple and to get some more sales on kits they usually don't sell much of.Looking through the list of spearheads almost every single new one is a downgrade compares to the old version. There are exceptions, like the idoneth one, but it's still very apparent. I mean holy shit new kharadron, new nurgle, new seraphon, ... all ass compared to the great first iterations.I feel bad for the rules guys who somehow have to make the shit they get sent by corporate into a decent army.
>>98753395I miss when there was centerpieces or big monsters in these fucking things.
>>98753421well. hellsmiths have you covered there. Now fyreslayers too.
>>98753395At least the new Fyreslayer spearhead is a huge upgrade.
>>98753439The bull golem is a lot smaller than you'd imagine anon, I dunno if it could be compared to something like a terrorgheist or carnosaur.
>>98753443the ultimate monkeys paw.But also they probably had to dump off as many of those berserker dudes since those got squatted.
>>98753454Was there any actual reason to squat them in the first place
>GW doesn't support>doesn't get popularityAs expected of FyreSisters of Bretonnia.
>>98753472The hopeful part of me is thinking that they're getting remade.
>>98753472I mean, there's already gonna be 5 naked hero men, naked dwarf melee, naked dwarf ranged, and less naked dwarf warcry band. I feel like having weaker naked dwarf just kinda ain't gonna work.Also they looked slightly worse than the other ones.
>>98753421Technically you've got the new sons of behemat one!But yeah looking through the list of currently sold spearheads, the largest things you're getting now are things like the chorf bullbot or the dok parade float. Aside from the upcoming magmadroth of course. That thing is 4/5th the price of an entire spearhead by itself. Easily the highest value model they've put in these so far.
>>98753489What if we did more rune golems or focus on lava or monster parts? Also the lore says their home realm got hit hard but aren't there tons of lodges everywhere?
>>98753221What if you jumped in
I just hope Fyreslayers don't end up dissapearing later down the line. Sure, have them be a subarmy of the Khazalites, that's alright. I just hope they keep on existing even if just with scraps, magic fire Dwarf barbarian mercenaries is such a cool fucking concept and there's still so much more they could expand the faction with model-wise, they don't have to look all exactly the same across like 4 different units in total.
>>98753829I dont know if I want them to be separate lines like how orrucks are dealt with or they are all considered one big line. I dont mind some of the new khazalites, but im still not jumping on the new dwarf train until fyreslayers themselves get *something*. I want more high fantasy dwarf stuff not just dwarf mc dwarves.
>>98753829I think they're fine for the time being, but man them getting nothing but another foot hero out of this whole mess was hilariously spitefulI think the vulkyn did show their potential and if they ever feel like it they can build on those designs to revitalize the faction. Being souped does take the pressure off of them a bit though, they don't have to perform to the level of a full faction which was never going to happen with their unfortunate range distribution.
>>98753477>FyreSistersWill GW ever do athletic tall tomboyish girls?
>>98753890Unironically I want FemFyreslayers. Hell, with the new Valayan Guardians GW just opened the floodgates for Dwarf women already. Half naked fire-blooded barbarian dwarf tomboys, THAT would sell models and save FS.
>TOW overtaking 40k in views now tooIs 11th edition 40k as unwatchable as 4th edition AoS?
>>98753967It is more watched because fewer play it and thus less ways to watch or play in=person.
>>98753890my wife does not have boobies that big…
What would be most fun to play against out of skaven, helmiths, seraphon, empire, StD?
Now that the half-naked people with flaming chained weapons aren't an army anymore, there is no way to Kratos in this game. No Magma Blades or Black Steel Cutters. This saddens me to the point I'm amost as disinterested in this game as I am in ToW.
>>98753890Don't suggest that anon. The Fire Sisters canonically sleep naked together in the same bed, cuddling without sheets, do you want that for Dwarf women?
>>98753932You reminded me, before the reveal I remember discussing with anons here that a female exclusive dwarf unit would probably work better for dorfs than just mixing male and female ones in the basic unit...What a monkey's paw that ended up beingNot to open that can of wormd again. But they should have committed harder to the wagnerian brunhilde thing and given the valayan guard horned or winged helmets, and fat braids and embossed boobplate.
>>98753932>Hell, with the new Valayan Guardians GW just opened the floodgates for Dwarf women already.The monkey paw curls.
More weapons with hidden weapons in them.
>>98752987Needs fumes.
>>98753990Slaves to darkness are a weird one considering how simple they should be
>>98753990havent played against helsmiths and by empire i assume u mean cos, id say skaven is the most fun depending on build, if its vizzik castle bit cringe but anything else is fun id say. seraphon as well but only because they look dope and their rules are kinda underwhelming std players can eat poo poo very baby first army thats hard to fuck up with unless they are playing darkoath of course which is ultra based
>>98753890GW faces tend to be so ugly that pic would be a regular occurrence with nobody being able to tell they're girls.
Undead pirates army rule idea: Cursed Doubloons>Each battle round, you gain doubloons from charging, capturing terrain, killing units, and other equally fascinating piratey actions>Each character has a Treasured ability, which triggers when you cash in the requisite doubloons, like a flat x" charge result or increasing the number of attacks on their main weapon>Named characters have Treasured abilities with tiers so they constantly improve over time>You can spend doubloons for other abilities, like reducing the rending on a ranged attack or giving an enemy unit one doubloon to fuck off (reduce their charge roll by 2)

>>98753200That's not fair, almost every AoR is unplayable flavor nonsense that works best for casual 1k point games. In theory if they weren't phoned in the battle traits should compensate or replace the warscroll ability, but in practice the only army of renown that's equal to baseline is Belakor's
>>98754914that is NOT what BL means……….
>>98754006>>98753890You guys have some good taste
Warlock engineer I’m working on. I think the contrast paint is a bit too bright but otherwise I quite like the burgundy. I basecoated with wraithbone so grey seer probably would’ve been better. Anyways what’s everyone’s favorite contrast or least favorite contrast. I quite like blood angels red
>>98754519>https://www.warhammer-community.com/wNTA but they were better as a side game thing than main game. They were alright for Dreadfleet.
>>98753890Maybe one day

im very thankful the armies i like are grungy and supposed to look fucked up or my paint jobs would look 1000 times worse, i dont think i would ever be able to actually fucking paint lumineth or do faces
>>98753932I wouldn't be so averse to female dwarfs if their baseline was that one female champion option the Helsmiths have in their Infernal Razers unit, or that new female dwarf character. But GW can't fucking help themselves, so I hate them.

They’re gonna release a chaos dragon for all the chaos anrmies and make it customizable like the defiler for 40k with all the god legions.
>>98755319i like that design infinitely more than the standard infantry woman dorfs the khazalite has
>>98753932We already got them, they're not half naked, they're not hot, they're not tomboys.JUST LIKE EVERY OTHER TIME GW DID THIS AND EVERY TIME THEY'D PUSH THIS DEI BULLSHIT YOU RETARDS
>>98755453hopefully it's different enough from the TOW chaos dragon or else what was the fucking point?
>>98754519The pirates
>>98755455I think it helps she’s not showing her chin. Or legs. I think that’s the one design element dwarves should universally have, which is long skirts.
>>98755466It’ll probably have three heads. Or one heads. Maybe even 4 heads.
>>98755466>no wings >galrauch mutations>more of a hydra than a dragon can't think of anything else
>>98754603Nothing particularly chaos about Gyrm
>>98755509if rumors called it a dragon and not a hydra I'm going to expect wings

>>98755487>>98755509hopefully it's just dorghar and archaon is allowed to be on foot instead
>>98755574They look like chaos warriors
>>98755319The thing is, GamesWokeshop is a big fan of the "Powerless Rings" series and its empowered, diverse dwarf character, Disa.
>>98753829I'd like to think they'll be ok. If they were going to kill them off now would have been the perfect time
>>98755668Hardly
>>98755691AW LAWD DEM RANGS

>>98755749That's Jap souls, Lords of The Fallen doens't have dwarfs
>>98755763Bell helmets are more of a nurgle only thing
>>98755823Whatever man, the Iron Golems Dwarf has it anyway
>>98755823no, they come from chaos undivided
>>98755875What undivided guy wears a bell
>>98755907pretty much all of them since 6th editionor is this the bit where you pretend to not understand what people have been talking about and instead proceed to use increasingly absurd definitions of what a bell shape entails in this context?
>>98755975You're the one who sees a guy literally wearing a bell, the ding ding one with eyeholes drilled in it, and comparing it to a generic helmet
>>98755993mind posting a nurgle guy wearing a literal ding ding bell with eyeholes drilled in it then? surely that's easy given how bell helmets are more of a nurgle only thing, right?
>>98755907>>98755823Yeah, when Nurgle was just green chaos warriors? What're you even talking about bro
>>98756018NTA but that one old AoS game had a Maggotkin hero wearing a "literal ding ding bell".
Tocsin, toxin... Get it?
>>98756056The Nurgle voicework in that game was funny. You could tell they had zero budget and that the actors were striking a balance between being their silliest with it and plain not giving a shit.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eOt7rv5JZ-0
The argument should even be about the shape of the helmet, it's more that the gyrm guy uses a repurposed everyday object and not an actual militar gear like chaos warriors obviously do.
>>98756056underrated game, but I played throughout broken somehow stacking equipment or whatever beyond the limits so maybe I'm biased because I wasn't grinding at it for months like a normal roguelite just a week or two.
>>98756061
>>98754603I see it
Nurgle does have a bell motif but it's never been applied to helmets, those are just CW helmets with the horns placed elsewhere
>>98756073They broke that in the last "bug fix" you suddenly were able to add more buffs than you can

>>98754519The vampires>>98754559Looking good anon
>>98754559Based Kratos ogres
>>98754519They were born from the craze for pirates of the carribbean and never went through a proper designing and writing process, instead they're based on the kind of armylist a fan would make, which is inevitably full of questionable and/or redundant concepts and silly conversions, and no in-depth exploration of the faction, which is perfectly ok, and even great, when it is a thing made by a fan for fun, but it's not when it's meant to be given the pass over official things get.But most people against the faction are not really levying any criticism towards the specific unit as much as having a knee jerk reaction to the fact its REAL canonisation outside of white dwarf happened with total war, which marked it as a thing from and for secondaries, exacerbated the above problems with even more over the top and even more redundant units, and surprisingly enough even less cohesive or explored fluff, because it inglobated previously unrelated things with little explanation.And this >>98756181, the presence of vampires immediately ruins the whole thing because they hog the spotlight, make their pastiche gothic-bat aesthetic obligatory, and don't allow the faction to be anything but an interesting reskin of vampire counts.
so what we're saying is that they would be better if they were liche coasts
>>98756208Yes infinitely soAlso since we were talking about a chaos dragon earlier in the thread it's worth noting this fucker appeared in soulbound a few months back. Probably doesn't mean anything in terms of design, but who knows.
>>98756215The pose would be better than the tow one at least.
>>98756208It's a joke list from some random guy. Soulful conversions but I wouldn't want Ninja Zombies either even if I'd be amused by a converted Ninja Zombie army in WD
>>98756208>>98756237Magic the gathering made a whole set based around ninja turtles. it was bad
>>98756258I like their vampire pirates (conquistadors)
>>98756223Well yeah, the only way it could be worse is by pulling a dorghar or something and having it fly
>>98756267>white people are literal bloodsuckers here to suck the land of poor innocent PoC dryI hate modern MtG so much
>>98756267Pirates are a compleatly separate tribe in that set though.
>>98756208They would be better if the focus was on pirates instead of vampires is what I'm saying.Ideally a faction has to provide the basis for someone to add anything you want related to the theme, the point of lizardmen is to give you every dinosaur and virtually any type of lizard person once you include sacred spawnings and the 3 subspecies of skink, saurus and kroxigor, plus anything you could possibly find related to precolumbian mesoamerica including the ancient alien memes; ideally a warhammer faction or pirates (because the core of the appeal is fantasy pirates more than specifically vampire pirates or even undead pirates) should give you the room for undead pirates, cursed davy jones pirates, normal pirates and other fantasy sea-related things like fishmen and maybe even cthulhu, so the center of the faction cannot be vampires, it has to be something that could connect to all of these, and stromfels would be the perfect candidate for that, but vampires cannot be the center of the faction or even the center of the undead branch of the faction.
>>98756286Any political messaging is irrelevant when the bad guys look cool.
>>98756286It's definitely not based on something, it's definitely completely fabricated from some DEI fantasy. Come on bro this is like a reverse "we were kangz". "We wuznt conquistadors or anything". They depicted European conquest in a modern magic set while still having it look badass and you wanna complain?
>>98756492Complaining is all his kind knows.
>>98755302What manga
>>98756196goddamn that’s a funny image
>>98756286When you put it like that, yeah, that probably was their pozzed intention, but they do look pretty cool >>98756316.
>>98756316
>>98756087They’ve toned down the bell motif in recent years haven’t they? I remember that official art of the one guy with a literal giant bell over him from like 2017
>>98756687they still do bells, but aos nurgle has gone a less cartoony direction for some reasonmaybe gw heard some of the complaints about death guard and wanted to see what would happen if they went the other way, shame blightkings had to die though
>>98756707
>>98756286Yeah, it's not like the Spanish conquered South America with some biblical-tier kill counts and slavery. Conquistadors are peak Nurgle inspiration imo.
>>98756725golem get ye gone
>>98756286>Spanish >white

>>98756707>>98756710>>98756737They went from church bells to cow bells, connected to their shift to folk pagan horror aesthetic with all the wicker shit (in addition to their more knightly chivalric theme)
>>98756770Yes, you are correct
>>98755691try this on for size anon.
>>98756755Low test>>98756770Sorry terror birds and other pleistocene shit is reserved for darkoath now that ogres are doing savannah stuff.
>>98755144Black legion is the best black ever, goes on smooth and looks silky. Fucking LOVE THAT SHIT, gone through like 3 pots of the stuff.Also not bad for a WIP, I'll be excited to see him finished off anon.
>>98756819fuck off, the only shit darkoath deserve is mockery
>>98756832>darkoath??
>>98756770Make a unit of lesser gnashtoofs hounds for the boss on dog, maybe with optional hobgrot riders for good measure.Then make a unit of slave siege giants for the breakaboss to lead, because the parallel between the breakaboss and the fusil major must continue and cos got a pair of gate giants.Then make a generic shaman ride on a howdah on top of a terrorpin tortoise, which can have conveniently long legs to look almost like an elephant or the creature from the mist.Finally a melee special character on a fat giant terror bird to complete the prophecy of the hands of gork and mork.
>>98756832Nice scar and simba bro
>>98756853Also have the siege giants dual build for both kruleboys and ironjaws: kruleboys get the masked and amputated ones with hooks and flails, ironjaws get the non-amputated armored ones with fat blades and wrecking balls.
>>98756853>just give me 4 big kits bro
>>98756836Untamed Beasts especially
>>98756870I wish they'd bring back the unmade... Those guys were cool as fuck. The big quadriplegic scarecrow dude is still sick as hell.
>>98756763Trying too hard
>>98755453Goddamn. When 40k does it eight, it does it right.
>>98756866Yes
>>98756853This but leave the tortoise, kill Gobsprakk and change his model into a generic
>>98755771Probably for the best.>>98756066Very often the case with these Warhammer games sadly. What I would give for a studio with resources and experience to make one…
I want them to release a RoR 2 (Realms of Ruin 2), but with the cities of Sigmar, Gloomspite Gitz, Skaven, and Fleas Eaters Corts as the main races (and you'd better hope the game isn't a Muff Cabage like the previous one).
>>98757009I feel like AOS really just needs a decent souls like clone or some elder scrolls open world junk. Maybe like a shadow of mordor type game.
>>98757009>I want them to release a RoR 2It was such a flop the whole studio vowed never to try rts ever again.Your only hope for an aos rts is for total war to pick the ip up after 10 years of total 40k because gw won't give them the 30k IP unless they do aos as well, like it's the case with rpg books.
>>98757060souls-like won't sell unless it's the same visual style as all other souls-like and even then they usually don't sell unless it's specifically and established soulslike brand, which warhammer clearly isn't, and open world rpgs only get popular if they stick to reddit humor, dnd greentext shenanigans, and fantasy erotica.it's stormdivers or nothing.
>>98747929A SCREAMING PURPLE BALL AAAAAAAAAAA-
>>98757154>open world rpgs only get popular if they stick to reddit humor, dnd greentext shenanigansAnon what the fuck are you smoking.Also I feel like if Space Marine can sell as a generic action game you could easily just make some bullshit with any faction here and sell it. Stormcast helldivers also sounds god awful, at that point just make the tide game that's inevitably gonna happen.
>>98757113Wouldn't be surprised if ca shat out a saga title for aos in 5 years or soBut yeah best that frontier sticks to zoo management games because they were clearly out of their depth in the rts field
>>98757257>>open world rpgs only get popular if they stick to reddit humor, dnd greentext shenanigans>Anon what the fuck are you smoking.and fantasy erotica, don't forget the fantasy erotica
Luv my balloon manlets
>>98756526They never give source, forget about it
Ah. They're doing skaven.
They really excelled with the ogre refresh, i'm really happy painting these lads and all the cool beasts in the army. It makes me even want to write lore for my dudes.Pic related are still work in progress.
>>98757337You can bet your ass at the end of the animation they're saved by stormcasts.
>>98757350The tyrant looks more like a unit champion than a big hero.
>>98757361You get a lot more bits to deck him out is what I'll say.
>>98757361I kinda felt that too, i will probably give him the pelt cape to make him more distinct from the rest. It will also fit better with the other beastclaw units for the army.
>>98757361I think it’s a posing issue or a tactical rock would’ve actually helped for once.
>>98757300>>98757337this actually looks somewhat interesting unlike the stormcast animationsmight actually watch this if my /aosg/ friends with wh+ subscriptions would be so kind as to share them when it comes out :)
>>98757350Nice work on those so far, even if I am glad I grabbed the old sculpts. Just personally not a fan of the new designs, but I am glad people seem to like them.
>>98757521I still have my mix and match ones sitting half finished... I should get back to those.
>>98757521I like some of the old sculpts, i intend to add a stonehorn to the army. Since i'm going to focus on beastclaw units, does anyone know how i could base them with a tundra biome? I dont have much experience with basing in general.
>2020-2021The game was still so young, so innocent.
>>987576522018 was the peak…
>>98757652design on the left is actually fucking cool as hell what on earth
>>98757652>see through dresswas kind of expecting some eldritch horror or whatever lurking undernearth ngl
>>98755691you post this like AoS hasnt had diverse dwarfs for multiple editions now. this is nothing new to aos.you can always tell the secondaries by whos trying to start racebaiting shit in aos
Me wish Fire Dwarfs were expanded like DoK.
>>98757745Now that you mention it his axe-gun design *is* very similar to the valayan polearms...
>>98757745I do find it funny GW has a canon reason for more women as well, with Alarielle's sex-aura to stop nagash's bone-aura.
>>98757754>like DoKBrother dok are getting souped next edition too
>>98757745Drekki is sunburnt and heavily tanned, his own novels say as much.
>>98757745>calls other people secondaries >hasn’t actually read the books to know >>98757793So fucking tiring
>>98757759Alarielle performed the Rite of Shin’zo.
>>98757759>with Alarielle's sex-aura to stop nagash's bone-aura.it wasn't alarielle's rite of life, and even if that helped it's still too early to see any result of it on the demographics of adult dwarfs, it was the arcanum optimar that did it.So you have to thank nagash, or tzeentch.
>>98757745>>98757844>BL slopno one cares
Giants should be a mount option for necromancers, that is if gw ever plans on expanding the necromancer part of sbgl. Which uh…it’s kinda weird they haven’t done much of beyond uw. I feel like they’re a potentially golden opportunity.
>>98757952They've been focused on skellies Speaking of, liche hero when?
>>98757793>>98757844Murdered that shit stirring tourist
>>98757745Give female Dawi
>>98757952They can't release too many undead factions close to one another because the player overlap is too large since they were all once one army.And also they're probably one of the best things they could put inside a starter set so they must be saving them for once they're done with the other death armies, and they basically are now.
>>98757450Seconded. Very good idea anon! They should absolutely do that!
>>98758050>They can't release too many undead factions close to one another because the player overlap is too large since they were all once one army.fun fact they released DoK and IDK within a month of each other back in late 1st edition
>>98758050What about vampires and technically living undead?
>>98757450>/aosg/ friends with wh+lol
>>98754519>>98756201>>98756208>>98756310I still stand by the concept being cool and having a lot of potential, mostly because they’re a guilty pleasure of mine (and the TW trailer they got was pretty cool) the execution just wasn’t the best
>>98758082the neave stuff occasionally got shared
>>98756743correct
>>98756814>>98756743>>98755691>>98755459beyond parodical holy Christ almighty
Can someone give me a rundown on what the last world rumors are about?
>>98758365>>98758365>>98758365
>another edition where tzeentch gets nothing Just give me something to make the arcanites feel like something proper, please…the cursling and the new character both feel completely detached from the stuff they had in 2e.Oh well maybe I’ll collect idk instead, they aesthetically are kinda similar.
>>98758364>some back and forth attacks between the grand alliances happen, such as dwarfs with lizards attacking chaos, or the "claw of gork" (a new ironjaw on wyvern) bashing up order and chaos and forcing sigmar to ally with one of his old enemies (unclear who, probably nagash)>eventually chaos makes a big push for azyr and breaches it, also along the way slaanesh gets freed and archaon and sigmar have a big final duel>somehow, sigmar pulls off his long foreshadowed plan to glue the realms together, but this comes with only a few pieces (specifically the ones we got maps for over the years) getting saved and jigsawed together into a new "last world", while the rest of the realms are destroyed>an unknown timeskip happens, might be 100 or 1000 years, but most characters are immortals, and the ones who aren't (like thalia) seem to be getting deus-ex-machina'd across the timeskip>the new world looks somewhat like the old world, in the sense that the surviving bits and bobs of the realms are arranged in a familiar way (ie elven realm as an island in the middle of the ocean, and chaos once again at the poles)>the new map has new factions that probably exist just in the backdrop and to inspire proxies (there's a convenient not!bretonnia and not!kislev, a japanese faction, a chinese one of evil snake worshippers, and even a chaos faction with blackpowder)>the timeskip is used to ramp up the grimdark further, the cities of sigmar grow further apart and stormcasts lose their recyclability (instead they pass the mantle to new people upon death)>there are also two stories over what happened in the big final battle: chaosfags believe archaon killed sigmar for good, sigmarfags believe sigmar defeated archaon and then went into a secret questlots of characters die, but mainly ones that either could be reborn/reforged or magically survive one way or another, while characters that would die to the passage of time get conveniently sequestered into a time dilation chamber
>>98756725Skill issue. Don’t suck so badly at everything next time.
>>98758370This is some very pointed art…
>>98750545Good on you man
>>98756725And they deserved itNothing of value lost
how did they get the look of the infantry so wrong? i feel like dwarf warriors have to be one of the easiest things to get right, there are so many good examples
