Old Thread: >>52324905

Should I play Moonclan Grots or Clan Skryre Skaven?
>>
>>52341419
Moonclan grots all night babe, unless you're a lazybones. Then paint the dozen or so models from skryre.
>>
>>52341429
I wonder if the three Liberators from Shadespire will get their own warscrolls. As is, one of them, the helmetless one, would already make perfect substitute for the stupidly limited Errant-Questor from Warhammer World, and the other two could be used as either Liberator-Primes or, in case of the femcast, as a Knight-Questor with a little conversion work (sword instead of hammer, cloak).
>>
>>52341455

And even if you are lazy, painting moonclan is a breeze. Prime dark grey, heavy wash with nuln oil, drybrush dark grey again, bright green skin. Ta-dah, one moonclan grot.
>>
>>52341470
>Coming Late 2017
Are you sure you want to wait 6 months or more for a Errant-Questor proxy?
>>
Should I start daemons of khorne or stormcast eternals elegan/tg/entlemen?
>>
>>52341597
Sure? I mean, I already have a few Errant-Questor proxies, I'm just looking into how to best utilize that box.
>>
>>52341610
Neither.
Don't be so bland, pick something more rare and flavourful.

Wait for the Khorne Battletome next month before you decide. It may well be just what the Khornates need.

>>52341429

So do you think she's actually Mclargehuge or is she just a dainty lady in a thick suit of armor?
>>
>>52341626
It's safe to assume she's just as massive as other Stormcast. They are reforged into the shape of larger-than-life ideal heroic figures.
>>
>>52341470
>I wonder if the three Liberators from Shadespire will get their own warscrolls.
That's already been confirmed by GW.
>>
>>52341652

Do you think she was reforged to have a bigger ass and thighs and boobs as well?
>>
>>52341652
She was also a Blacksmith in her former life so we can assume she was a beig girl to begin with.
>>
>>52341666

If you were one of the Six Smiths, wouldn't you?
>>
>>52341652
>>52341666

Actually since they mentioned Sigmar took the whole royal household of Victria, does that mean that there's loli and shota Stormcasts out there, or did Sigmar just make them all into adults in the prime of their life?
>>
>>52341718

WHERE IS THE ADEPTICON NEWS.

YOU SAID THERE WOULD BE ADEPTICON NEWS.
>>
>>52341742

Must have been nice for the elderly ones. You suddenly get a basically immortal top-tier pumped body.
>>
>>52341808

Maybe today? Dunno, in lady atia's blog they both said thursday.
>>
>>52341626
I assume she'll be built like a bodybuilder and would grab any regular man, run him to the ground or until the bed broke and left his mandhood dried up and aching from the brutal action.
>>
>>52341827
I guess so, if you consider eternal servitude and ceaseless warfare while you slowly lose bits and pieces of yourself to super-alzheimer to be awesome.
>>
>>52341896
Well, you can recover them (ask Thostos) but... eh it's like getting a lottery. You're right. Now, I DO wonder whether or not Sigmar's trying to correct this. He comments in Pantheon there were things to mend and seemed quite hellbent on achieving peace properly (as in turning swords into plowshares level of peace).
>>
>>52341855
time to understand that this 'hustings" not the real one.
Atia said nothing about aelf.
>>
>>52341855
REEEEEEEEEE they have been blueballing us for almost two weeks now.
>>
>>52341896
>>52341923

The thing is, he explicitly only takes people who are on the verge of death to become Stormcasts, so the question is really whether they would rather be dead or stormforged. I assume the Victria situation was a bit unusual in that the fortress was about to be overrun and everyone slaughtered, but it still seems a bit odd.
>>
Hey tg, i'm looking for a two handed (or long enough sword) without hands on it or within a sheath. Any idea of boxset i could find one ?
>>
Is there any evidence to support the claim that there's more adepticon news than what we've got with Shadespire? Like, were did the idea of elf talk even come from?
>>

No actual evidence, Im just assuming that there isnt any more

Well, there was this on War Of Sigmar, where they said:
>answer tomorrow
Given "tomorrow" was the first day of Adepticon it's not a huge jump to think whatever this is will be revealed at Adepticon, just maybe the War Of Sigmar team didn't know which day.

And for what it's worth, atia/war of sigmar definitely do seen to get inside info.
>>
>>52342020

I just mean that it seems a bit unusual for him to start picking non-warriors. The other Stormcasts for whom we know background were great warriors or leaders, so it must be a bit of a pinch of sigmar just goes "YOU'RE A STORMCAST AND YOU'RE A STORMCAST! EVERYONE'S A STORMCAST!" like he's Oprah.
>>
They havent even showed the dwarfs at adepticon let alone revealed any aelves. Pretty lame 2bh, I dont give a shit about shadespire
>>
>>52342053
I get how the industry works, but there is still something that comes off as quite dishonest when a rumor site fucks around with 'being allowed to tell something' or being under NDA.
>>
>>52342064
He's also picked up hunters and philosophers and shit. I'd assume the only real requirement is a solid hateboner for Chaos, a willingness to surrender yourself to a greater cause and a appropriate sense of heroic defiance.
>>
>>52342111

Makes sense. I guess it depends on how many people from the royal household he snagged. Just the royals and their attendants and guards, or the cook, stablehand and seamstress as well?
>>
>>52341982
Bump

40k player,
On top of that, in the upcoming day i would like to try a bit of AoS with my local club. Is there any good beginner army in AoS ?
>>
>>52342153
The warblades found in the Dracotian Guard kit are unsheathed bar a small leather strip, if that's any help. Beyond that you're probably easier off to combine a hiltless blade and some plasticard rods.
>>
>>52341429

Would you a stormcast, even knowing she might break you?
>>
>>52342278

I myself would try it. Death by Snu-Snu? Sign me up.

A quick question: does sylvaneth alleigance make ALL wyldwoods free or just one and you need to pay for the following summoned bushes?
>>
>>52342447

Women that can strangle a snake in their buttholes, anon
>>
>>52342531
All of them, BUT you can only take them for summoning, since Wyldwoods don't have the Sylvaneth keyword and would thus break your allegiance when taken straight.
>>
>>52341742
>their souls all got poured into a perfect adult body

This isn't true because there are differences in the bodies of Stormcast, they don't all wind up with the same body. An stormcast who was big when he was mortal will be bigger still when when a reforged.
>>
>>52342076
Are you implying me that the extremely positive and most reliable rumormonger that appeared just after the greatest shitstorm sorrounding the hobby and shortly before the first open interactions between company and community and stopped leaking images of her own when the company started doing it itself may actually be doing this in accordance with the company's will?

AoS newbie here, fresh off the boat from the 40k refugee camps.

Rules are pretty simple, and I like the ease of making lists with different strategic decisions, but something bugs me in the rules that I haven't found clarity for.

If say some skeletons charge a unit of archers, and they both survive the ensuing combat phase. When it's the archer player's turn, does he get to both shoot and attack in melee?

>>
>>52343606
Not according to Fulgrim
>>
>>52343506
He shoots in the shooting phase and he punches in the mlee phase.
And before you invariably start comlaining about how unbalanced that is, it is actually balanced on account of shooty units being shitawful in melee (bara few exceptions that cost an arm and a leg) plus for every shooting phase you get two player turns of melee.
>>
>>52343624
Like, what, carving the image out of steel or something?
>>
>>52343459
She's cute, but the limbs on the dracoth make it look like she's riding a cow.
>>
>>52343724
>it is actually balanced
It's just stupid and kills simple but useful tactic against stong shooting units.
>>
>>52342662
I was pretty sure she's British.
>>
>>52343759
Yes, because a shooty unit that was caught with its pants down will surely fight its way out of a punch-up with a dedicated melee unit.
>>
>>52343769
Well, she or he at very least speak German and knows a bunch of German 40k trivia.
>>
>>52343785
>will surely fight its way out of a punch-up with a dedicated melee unit.
1) Depends on stats and random (double turns)
2) It will keep shooting, so now instead of some fast and small units you must send proper anti-infantry unit
>>
>>52341454
Play Moonclan Grots and make sure that you properly color their Moonman banners and shields, paint their robes white, and then paint up your squigs onyx black with bright red lips.
>>
>>52343734

Stormcasts are literally made from metal.
>>
>>52343839
Double turns can and do happen either way, and have a bigger impact on shooting than assault

Doesn't change you get an assault phase in that turn either way
>>
>>52343934
That's not what the Shadespire art directly points to though.

Incorrect, unless it's a shitty shooting unit.
>Y shoots X at least once from range, dealing loses
>X charges Y
>Yshoots X in reaction to the charge, dealing even more loses
>X punches Y, having taken at least two fully rounds of shooting and thus likely having already been weakened fairly significantly
>Y punches X, just to salt the wound
>Unless X gets two turns in a row, it's now Y's turn to shoot again

Nah, they have (super)human bodies underneath that armor. Khorne worshippers were pretty happy they could bleed when they first encountered Stormcasts in the AOS novels.

You know, what's really going to be fucking nuts in Age of the Emperor or whatever the Sigmar-fied version of 40k, just imagine how fucking durable all of those Marines are going to be, instead of Freeguild handgunners. It'll be like those fucking Stormcast machine gunners in units of 20.

pls halp i am not good with compuetr

The Wanderer Spellweaver has an ability called "Blessing of Life." It reads as follows:

>The Spellweaver speaks in the tongue of ancient days, restoring life to the fallen. Blessing of Life has a casting value of 5. If successfully cast, select a WANDERERS unit within 16". You can return D3 slain models to that unit.

If I'm using matched play rules, do I need to set aside reserve points for this? Like that Death ability that brings a hero back with D3 wounds remaining, I know that costs their full points value in reserve points. But this is only "summoning" part of a unit and is basically just returning wounds. Does it count? Or is it like the Vampire abilities where you get wounds back for killing stuff and don't have to put points aside for it?

tl;dr healing spells don't take reserve points, summoning do, does a spell that brings back dead stuff but only if the unit still exists?
>>
>>52345070
no reserve points needed. The spell isn't creating a new unit so no reserve points required.

What's so interesting about Thousand Sons, but with bodies?

>>52345923

Huh? No they still lose their personalities and memories, the book just hints that it's a transformation into something different rather than just purely losing their souls.

This is told at the same time as the story of Thostos going crazy from reforging and essentially committing suicide by Everchosen so it's not really set to a hopeful tone
>>
>>52345944
Well at least it's implies bitter end for them adn also provides free space for some sort of advance for their fluff

>>52345997

I think the implication was that rather than becoming unthinking autonomata they lose all of their personality and memories that aren't "Fuck Chaos(tm)"


Like Angry Marine thousand sons

Personally I think that's fucking tragic for heroic people to become mindless rage machines.

>>52346018

Wargaming works fine, depending on how you want to play. When I played 40k, I almost always lost as Orks (this was even before 6e and 7e). But I always enjoyed the games because I liked how my minis looked in battle.

Pretty much this. If you like the look of the Stormcast but have a fondness for Chaos then there is no reason why you shouldn't buy some Stormcasts and convert them into followers of Chaos.
>>
>>52347725
Anyone who doesn't convert the shit out of his models deserves death to be quite honest with you sempai
>>
>>52347602
Honestly, you're probably looking at the standard prices. There's a reason I paint my own shit for large-scale wargames and only splurged and got a skirmish army painted because of a mix of a Christmas present and the fact it'd not be more than 15-20 models.

Unless you want really shitty work, expect to pay at least $15-20 a model on infanty/cavalry. And that is only going to ramp up if you want it beyond the most basic shit. If it's an Infinity army, that's not a lot of money. When you're fielding 40-60 models at 1000 points, it will cost a fuckton.

Khorne bloodbound are pretty cheap two: get their half of the starter, buy their SC! and you'll get 1000 pts. They are getting a new battletome pretty soon so my guess is that they'll get pretty better than they are now.
>>
>>52348208
Sorta. Like Knights in 40k they either roll an opponent or are going to be stuck all game weeding out the chaff.

Not in my opinion allthough it works best as a slaaneshi-armour due to chiseled abs-look it has. It brings to mind the cuirasses worn in ancient times by the hellenes and romans. Even if I were to agree with you then that can be seen as an added bonus if you are after that looted-equipment look which fits really well with the theme of Chaos.

The stormcast minis are quite big which means that larger heads/helmets such are ideal for conversions unless you like the whole oversizes armour-look, which granted isn't that bad on female minis imo.

But why? It's a fuckload more money and effort for something that only looks marginally different and no different rules wise.

Why bother?

>>52350392
Yup, but I don't think they will. It'll be an upgrade pack.
>>
>>52350474
>Why bother?

Well, for one example, my girlfriend personally thinks it'd be cool if she could play female characters. She'll go without, but if she had the option...
>>
>>52350499
She'd spend 5 times as much on Ladycasts when she could just get Aelves or something?

Because they want to, and when people really want something, they'll put in the effort. Enjoy your generic unit in a different colour from everyone else's.

People are willing to spend loads of money for mere cosmetic changes. A ftp game like Dota 2 wouldn't be a cash cow otherwise.

So learn to use greenstuff, don't just throw money at the problem.

How would one screen a unit of 30 handgunners?

Also, I really don't wanna fuckin' rebase. I mean I want to but damn, it seems like it'd be tedious.

Thanks bros, I plan on tuning em up better, as I've been reading a lot of the how to paint book citadel has and can hopefully utilize a lot of that stuff as I practice.

Dubs of Cowboy Chaos

Now I wanna green stuff this guy some boot patterns

Why rebase if measuring is model to model anyway?
>>
>>52350761
Because literally everyone, including GW does base to base.
>>
>>52350565
I bought 3 silver towers for blue horrors

I mean I guess for friendly games with friends it'd be cool.

Though after playing my first ever game, I can definitely see why rounds are prefered.

Though I do think it's kinda dumb if the rules do say model to model and everyone else does base to base lol
>>
>>52351023
Houserules aren't dumb, it's literally what the rulebook says to do.
>>
>>52351023
I think even tournaments use b2b.
>>
I started an empire army after aoS came out and I put everything on square bases because i think it looks better for Order armies
>>
>>52351265
Yes, nearly every tournament has used base to base for measurements.
>>
Hella dumb. Good thing I don't play tournies and am not competitive really. Well, that's good.
>>
>>52351346
No it's not, model to model is what's dumb.
>>
>>52351588

Still noobish to AoS, please explain
>>
>>52351843
Not him, but it encourages people to model their weapons in a way to get free cheese.
>>
>>52351843
Take your model, put it on a bunch of basing, now it's too tall to be hit in close combat,

Base to base stops that shit. Same with flyers.
>>
>>52351843
>>52352175
>>52352179
My only caveat is that I think shooting should be to the model, and cc to the base.
>>
>>52352179

That is the stupidest shit I've ever heard lmao. Though I can understand yeah.

I've just been measuring directly over the model's head/center to wherever it needs to go/shoot at..
>>
>>52351273
I use square for my clanrats just because it's so much easier to fucking move them around.

I got spire of dawn because for the 60$ I paid for it, it's an amazing starter set. Playing as the skaven side really showed me how much I hate swarm armies. Can't imagine moving them with circles.

Anyone have a spare high-elf on griffon from island of blood laying around?

i want one for a conversion but theyre like $30 on ebay these days. wish I had bought one back when they were like $1.50 and no one wanted them
>>
>>52352697

Honestly agree, squares do sorta make it easier to move swarm armies.
>>
>>52350076
It's okay anon I'm not that amazing at painting either. Started a week ago.
The question is, Temple Guard, Terradon/Ripperdactyl next? Eternal Starhost looks cool, but I'm close to finishing a Shadowstrike Starhost too.

How big is the Savage Big Boss compared to regular Savage Orruks? He looks...small.

Hinterlands question: I'm running a team with three Vanguard-Hunters. The Hinterlands rule states that one in three models can have a unit upgrade. Would that count with the Astral Compass, or would I have to adhere to the warscroll stating that only a squad of five may have an Astral Compass?
