Okay, so let's see what happens with this setup

>>52600124
>Play Bonesplitterz
>bring 3 Kunnin' Rukks
>3x1 savage big boss
>3x10 savage orruk boys
>3x40 savage orruk arrow boys
This should be <= 2000 points

In magical Christmasland, where every arrowboy and arrowboss gets to shoot, let's see what happens
A Big Boss general can use the command ability to give one unit the ability to roll another attack every time their to hit roll is a 6. So you roll to hit for attacks, get a new attack for each 6. I believe the new attacks can also generate new attacks on each 6. (It doesn't say they dont!) So let's assume that is how it works.
Each Kunnin' Rukk, for free, can have its arrowboys fire in the Hero phase. If you keep your Big Bosses within 10" of their arrowboy units, you get to shoot in the Hero phase, as well as in the Shooting phase. Each unit will fire twice.
The Loadsa Arrows ability says arrowboys make 1 extra attack if the unit is large enough. I don't think Arrow Boy Bosses count as Arrow Boys, so I believe they do not benefit from that power. We'll assume they do not get the extra attack. Please correct me if that's not the case.

So, you've got 39 arrowboys and 1 arrowboss in each unit. Each boy fires 3 shots at 5+/4+ to Hit/Wound, each boss fires 2 shots at 4+/4+.
Boys: 3*39=117 boy shots per attack. Since each unit attacks twice, and there are three units, we have 117*2*3=702 boys shots in one turn.
Boss: 2*1=2 boss shots per attack. Again, 2*2*3 = 12 boss shots in one turn.
But wait, there's more!

One of these units will generate additional shots on both attacks! 117+2 = 119 shots from the generating unit per attack, or 238 in total. Doing an expected analysis (the McDonald's of statistical analysis), 238/6 =~ 39.67 new shots. Of those new shots, 39/6 =~ 6.5 new shots. Of those new shots, you may get 1 new shot. So in total we expect about 39+6+1=46 additional shots.

File: Kunnin Rukk stats 1.png (57KB, 1813x425px) Image search: [Google]

57KB, 1813x425px

Of those, there's about a 50/50 chance that the new shots will include a boss shot. (Getting no 6s on 4d6 is about 48.22%, so it's about 51.88% of getting at least one 6 on 4d6.) We'll assume one of them is a boss shot. So of the 46 additional shots, 45 are boys shots and 1 is a boss shot.

702 + 45 = 747 boys shots, 5+/4+
+12 + 1 boss shots, 4+/4+
(Note that 747 = 3*249. That's why I have 249 models doing 3 attacks each; it works out identically, and lets you see the correct per-model damage of the arrow boys.)

747 boys shots at 5+ Hit, 4+ Wound means against the following Unmodified saves, you expect to inflict this number of Unsaved Wounds, which I call Damage:
(7+ is a stand-in for no save)
(save | boys + boss = total)
7+| 124.5 + 3.25 = 127.75
6+| 103.75 + 2.708333 = 106.458333
5+| 83 + 2.1667 = 85.1667
4+| 62.25 + 1.625 = 63.875
3+| 41.5 + 1.08333 = 42.58333
2+| 20.75 + 0.541667 = 21.291667

If they reroll 1s on their saves, instead you have:

7+| 124.5 + 3.25 = 127.75
6+| 100.291667 + 2.6180556 = 102.9097222
5+| 76.08333 + 1.986111 = 78.069444
4+| 51.875 + 1.3541667 = 53.2291667
3+| 27.667 + 0.7222 = 28.3889
2+| 3.458333 + 0.0902778 = 3.5486111

And if they reroll any failures on their saves, instead you have:

7+| 124.5 + 3.25 = 127.75
6+| 86.458333 + 2.2569444 = 88.7152778
5+| 55.333 + 1.444 = 56.778
4+| 31.125 + 0.8125 = 31.9375
3+| 13.8333 + 0.36111 = 14.19444
2+| 3.458333 + 0.0902778 = 3.5486111

For example, if you were fighting a unit of Stormcast Eternal Liberators with Sigmarite Shields (2 wounds each, 4+ saves, reroll 1s), leveraging your full shooty power you'd expect to inflict 52 or 53 wounds, sending 26 or 27 back to Azyr in a most embarrassing fashion. You'll probably also send your opponent back home because it took you half an hour to roll 760d6 and count the successes, winning you the game.

>>52609455
>Picking up Wanderers, am I fucked?
Only if you care about winning trophies in tournaments. Otherwise if you like the look of them and how they will play, you should be good. The meta changes all the time and they may get a points reduction or some new stuff in the future.

In the meantime, collect and have fun with it. They ally well with sylvaneth if you want some more punch in your force.

It really isn't though.

>>52609455
For blood elves you may want to go with the high elves, which are eldritch council, lion rangers, order draconis, phoenix temple, and swifthawk agents. None of those listed have any real allegience abilities, so you can mix and match some of that. You really want to just look for keyword synergy between the heroes and units.

The wanderers have more of a night elves theme.

>>52609585
>>52609487
I don't know what I did, I just like red and gold, it's why I play Blood Angels.

>>52609395
Buried deep away in some other book. Thanks for pointing it out.

>>52609653
It's not buried away, nor really deep within anything. It's in the general's handbook, which is considered the essential rulebook especially for matched play.

So many morons just take the GHB and skip to the points section without reading the chapter on playing matched. Don't be those people.

>>52609677
I never would've found it without having it pointed out. Strange that it only applies to matched points games.

>>52609722
You would have found it if you had just read the chapter on playing matched play, you know, one of the 3 modes of play.

>>52609722
>b-but it's tooo much reeeeeeading. i don't want to have to reeeeead. Can someone just spoonfeed me?

What are some good ideas for a spell/s for a Fimir Meargh? They're the only female fimir, lead the clans, are supposed to be really good wizards and can live to be very very old. I've been making custom warscrolls (to go with custom models) that I've been putting together for a fimir army. I have plenty of ideas for abilities, but my brain is just drawing a blank on spells for her right now. Already have a Summon Mist for the Dirach (other spellcasters).

>>52609800
Ok, other than being wizards in their society, how are they treated? are they revered or locked away to use for breeding? What kind of things do they do as magic users? do they just augur future events, or bless the warriors of their tribes?

>>52609792
Calm down now boy, missing a rule doesn't mean we hate your game.

>>52607383
So can someone explain to me what Blood Pact on the Blood Tithe table actually does? It seems poorly explained to me. I played a game today where, after slaying Skarbrand in the previous turn, my opponent spent his 8 points to summon him back in the following turn. Was this legal or not?

>>52609644
It's no big deal, there's one annoying dwarf player here who chimps out whenever blood elves are mentioned, but it looks like he's not here

>>52609823
They lead the fimir and they both augur and "bless" their warriors

>>52609823
They are the rulers of the fimir strongholds, so I would lean towards revered/feared. I know it's mentioned that they can summon daemons and mist.

>>52608913
it's finecast, we hate finecast for a reason.

It's brittle, covered in flash and sprue bits, has holes in it, and is generally a fucking pain to work with.

>>52609855
If it was in matched play: It is legal as long as he had the reinforcement points to pay for him again.
If he did not have the points, it is not legal. When a unit is completely destroyed, regular reinforcement rules apply. You only get free models if you only add to an existing unit, and never go above that units starting number.

If it was NOT matched play: Legal no questions asked.

>>52609855
Did he have the points to summon him?

>>52609881
Then I would go for a blessing type spell other than a damage or debuffing one. Something that buffs a unit of fimir warriors.

>>52609855
If you were playing Matched then he was cheating unless he had reinforcement points for it.

If he did or if you weren't playing Matched then it's perfectly fine.

>>52609855
>Was this legal or not?
Illegal. If you summon something on to the board, you have to have paid the points for it when building your list. Blood Pact is useless.

>>52609944
It's really not. It's thematic and lets Khorne lists summon without wizards.

And Narrative and Open play makes it completely fine.

>>52609903
>>52609913
>>52609931
>>52609944
I am assuming he didn't have the points as his side of the field was quite full and he didn't mention anything about summoning points when we were discussing our lists at the start. It's fine anyway as we were both getting to grips with the new rules and it wasn't explicit in the text. That said, maybe it's my own fault for not being more knowledgeable about summoning to begin with.

He only re summoned him at the end and he did nothing. Though I did concede that due to his presence I would have lost (he had a Mighty Lord of Khorne and a Slaughterpriest whilst I had one and a half units of Blood Warriors). If I take Skarbrand out of the equation once again, then I guess it would have been my victory perhaps, if we had the time to finish the game.

Are the moonclan grots mentioned anywhere or have they appeared at ALL in any art for Age of Sigmar? I feel like they've just disappeared.

I'm looking to get into the bone zone, but I want my bones to be Tomb King themed. Do GW skeletons only have the Vampire style Gothic bits or do they come with any of the old TK stuff? I'm also considering just getting some empire of dust minis from Mantic and putting them on round bases. I'd like to avoid the OoP price gouging for TK minis on eBay if I can, too, but I have no idea where to get recasts for those so I might just have to suck it up and buy them. How would you guys recommend I go about making some Egyptian-themed deathrattle?

>>52609967
>It's thematic
I agree.
>lets Khorne lists summon without wizards.
It does, but it's just not a good method to do so. Your tithe points and other spenders are just too valuable to be sitting on them until you have enough for a summon. Waiting until 8 units die is not a good way to summon. At least normal summoning lets you attempt it right of the bat.
>And Narrative and Open play makes it completely fine.
Agreed. I mostly mean from a matched play perspective though.

I just bought Saurus Knights as my first models! They were pretty cheap at 35, are there any other good ones?

>>52610773
Different anon but the Start Collecting! kit gives a bunch of nice models at a really good deal. You get more knights, some warriors, and a carnosaur, for essentially the price of the carnosaur.

>>52610695
For a beginner, very good actually. The finer points of miniature paintning will come with time and practice. Lol my first models looked like giant piles of yellow shit.

>>52610773
Saurus Knights are pretty neat, and since they run in packs of five in game, that gives you 3 dudes to mess around with/convert.

Skinks are also really good to test paint schemes out on. You get 24 per pack, and its fun to paint the little buggers.

Really like the others said just thin your paints some more and get a wash paint. There's a lot of Warhammer TV videos on youtube for some really good general tips when painting. Also getting (or making) a wet palette is helpful when thinning paints so there's that. Just enjoy what you do.

>>52611899
Those are some nice Seraphon, Anon.

>>52611899
So why are you posting this here?

Question for you all. New to AoS, in the sense that since the game came out I've not really had the opportunity to play it much at all. I've followed releases, and lurked the threads some. Took the full plunge and decided to start SCE a while back. Got the starter box, added 5 more Liberators, pulling me right about to that 1k mark. What would be a good next step for building this army up to that 1500/2k tier? So far I've only played 2 games, and both were against Ogors, and I got my shit rocked. Fucking Bulls and Leadbelchers put out stupid amounts of damage.

Also, far as unit formations and min maxing things go, how best to use my units? Do I need to be running more than 5 man Liberator squads? Or do most units function well enough at their standard size?

>>52612334
There is no standard size. You're running them at the smallest size. Yes, get more in your units.

>>52611816
You need more battline. Without Ironjaw Alliegence you can't take brutes as battle line, so you need more grots.

>>52611971

Sure Sylvaneth works out fine no reason to avoid them or anything like that. As with most miniature games play with what you think looks the coolest.

Also, I'm praying to Grungni that the "Start Collecting Kharadron Overlods" box comes with one of the small airships, because fuck they're awesome. Considering starting a Kharadron and Fyreslayer/Sylvaneth army.

I have a few questions for all the Death players out there who've bought Mantic's skeletons. I've noticed that they seem to have little round inserts that set into the bigger square bases. Do those little round parts happen to match up with the base sizes of AoS's new round bases? And if not, how easy would it be to use a hobby knife to cut off the Mantic base and mount them to a more standard round base without mangling the feet? That leads me to my last question: I was planning to buy some of the Tectonic studios movement trays for round bases for the big skeleton blocks, but I can't seem to find the base sizes for GW skellies. Are they 25mm?

>>52612380

I meant sort of as they come. Kind of like in 40k the box of 5 terminators you buy is all you mostly need. Good to know then. Besides filling in my ranks, any other units a good "must have" or "just burn your money instead because you'll never want to use these"?

I stopped buying from gw directly years ago because of a combination of the fineshit debacle and embargos price hikes.
During the fineshit incident I had to return a some items over half a dozen times and still didn't get a good cast. Then several other miscast plastic and metal led to me being declined a return. I suspected i'd been secretly blacklisted. Even though it was entirely their fault. Combined with the stupid embargo and pricing shit I swore never to buy from them again directly

For squad sizes, it's really up to you. Min squads let you divide your focus a bit more, while larger squads make good meat walls and are nice targets for buffs.

As for how you should expand, I'd say grab the start collecting box. The Lord-Celestant is fantastic, and you really need those two Retributors to finish your starter squad. After that, you can't go wrong with a Lord-Castellant and a box of Judicators.

I was thinking a very light blue-grey mix for the actual vampires (space wolf grey + something, similar to pic related) and a slightly darker blue for the Ghoul Kings, like pic related but less grey and more blue

>>52613417
I'd say maybe go for a watered down blue wash over pale skin for normal vamps, and then stick with the grey/blue combo for ghouls yeah

>>52610388

You don't have to wait until 8 units die since their are other ways to generate blood tithe points.

If you have two Slaughter Priests with Blood Sacrifice, and your General has Arch-Slaughterer and Blade of Endless Bloodshed you can potentially get to 8 points pretty quickly.

It's obviously still not an ideal way to summon and those points are better spent on other abilities but hey ho.

Realistically they should have just given Slaughter Priests the ability to summon.

>>52612937
I use a base coat of rakath flesh, agrax wash and then a few thin layers of P3 menoth white highlight with a bit of white mixed in at the end for highlighting the edges

>>52614988
>>52615427
Wait, you said 40k.

Slaanesh is still pretty good in 40k (the best after cheesy Tzeentch but if you use missions with killpoints, Slaanesh may be better than Tzeentch), but it's definitely not easy to use, unlike AoS.

But it do a little bit of everything, which is quite nice.

Yes.

Played a 2k game with my Ironjawz against my friend's stormcast. Highlight of the game was when Groin Kikka on Maw Krusha made it into his backfield. Charged his vexillor and killed him with the impact hits which allowed me another charge, which hit his Lord Relictor, killed him with impact hits and allowed yet another charge, which hit his Lord Celestant and killed him and allowed another charge into a unit of liberators.

It was glorious.

Fuck, GW actually it's making me think and make strategic choices with list building. Wanderers' noble prince and way strider are stronger and good buff abilities, but the way finder and way watcher give me battleline units of taken as Generals. What the hell

Or maybe 30 Arrowboys, and instead of 3 Savages take just one and two units of Moonclan Grots with one Fanatic in each.

>>52616040
looks like Sigvald to me (but I am not sure)

>>52615805
General wont be able to use his command ability at all, otherwise the handgunners will lose without inflicting a single kill.

Arrowboys range is 18 inches, and Handgunners range is 16 inches, Generals command ability forces handgunners to stand still (they can't move even if they want to).

This also means the Handgunners lose their own +1 to hit buff from standing still, meaning that they lose +2 to hit and +1 to wound in order to move into range.
A few units of handgunners will almost certainly either be destroyed, or at the very least fall below 20 models when the Orcs shoot them as well.

Also, bear in mind only 90 Handgunners can use the Generals command ability at any one time in matched play (Maximum of 3 units, and each unit can only be 30 men strong).

>>52616093
180 shots doesn't seem useless, even with their poor rolls it generates 30 or so unsaved wounds per turn. Is there a better way to get shooting into mixed destruction list.

I'm organizing a Path to Glory campaign.

Of course I had to do some custom tables for various players, and it was no problem, but yesterday one asked me a table for the Wood Elves.

I realize I know nothing about them.
Can you help?

1) Do they have different subfactions or castes so I can split up the tables? It would be quite handy.

I see a lot of Glade Something in the compendium, for example. Are they different guys?

2) Should I add the unit from the compendium? These seem to be quite normal units, and the player do have them.
Is there a fluffy reason why stuff like Glade Riders and Wardancers don't exist anymore in AoS?

3) Who are the de-facto leaders? Nomad Princes?

End times is the canon ending of warhammer fantasy. Age of sigmar takes place way after that but it's the same universe.

Okay so I've always been a Slaanesh fag. Mostly daemons. And it seems that for me this game is dead on arrival correct?

Yes I understand some Slaanesh units and the like have Warscrolls, but as a whole I'm not going to see formations (whatever they're called in AoS) or any new releases am I?

I understand that things like Elves and Ogres are in a similar book with no updated released, but they seem to get formations and the promise of a future.

So am I boned basically?

Build a Slaanesh army from all the models you like.

the /tg/ meme is yes its dead for Slaanesh. However, we don't know enough yet. They made Tzeentch and Khorne super buffed in both settings. Now we see Deathguard getting buffed, which leads me to think we'll see Nurgle get a helping hand soon. In the Ynnari book for Eldar, there are rumors of a giant snake demon rampaging about, which fits a Slaanesh Daemon, most likely Fulgrim, so we should see Emperor's children get some love. Probably during that time we should see Slaanesh get some love, either in the form of whatever their "not Slaves to Darkness" schtick is, much like Arcanites, Bloodbound, and Plaguekings. Perhaps that might be the Cthulu Elves we've been hearing about. Perhaps old Dark Elves will stay order but the new faction will be so corrupted by Slaanesh that malekith ends up going chaos and his close followers go too. That'd be a fun twist.

Or maybe /tg/ is right, and all slaanesh will ever get is Pleasurebound Warband and Daemon Cohort of Slaanesh.

>>52618888
Well...
You're not really that wrong

>>52619500
In the fluff, slaanesh is mentioned several times, but in the context of her being missing and her followers searching desperately. It seems to imply we may find out about her fate when the story gets around to the elves arc. But we don't know for sure.

For now though, if aos is dead in your area, then this is all a moot point. Find out what games they are playing and have fun with it

When I say dead on arrival I mean specifically for me as someone who loves Slaanesh and the models, and has little interest in the other AoS armies.

The community here is giving it a go and playing some warband like game (where I don't have rules I was told) and the more I see coming out for other armies the more I feel investing anything at all as a Slaanesh player is a bad idea.

Just looking for the view from those in the know so to speak.

No, /tg/ just has a really backwards take on the subject and it's much different pretty much anywhere else I've been. /tg/ seems to be in the minority on it. So I don't get nearly as triggered as some do when I hear that mentioned, even though I disagree with it.

>>52619500
But anon.

The latest Khorne battletome has him bitching about Slaanesh in every fucking page.

>>52619765
Sorry I haven't read anything much about the game. What does that mean for the army? If anything

>>52619743
Nobody is in the know on slaanesh's future. The only ones that do are deep in gw hq. Anyone who tells you otherwise it's lying. They can only make guesses.

>>52619781
It means, despite what some idiots are saying, slaanesh is not squatted. Her story just hasn't been finished yet. GW keeps hinting at her to remind everyone that she existed and they still have to tell her story.

If she was squatted, she would be confirmed dead, and/or treated as though she was never really a thing. That's not what had happened. Last we know of her is that she was captured, and her followers haven't given up on her and some claim they still sense her.

>>52619841

What like GW confirmed

Squats were dead
Tomb Kings were dead
Bretonnia were dead
Sisters were dead

They're dead, they keep them on because like Sisters they may decide to bring them back. If you start them though you're letting yourself in for two decades of shit rules and no updates with the possibility that one day they may throw you a bone.

>>52619765

Khorne is totes tsundere for Slaanesh.

Khorne, or his followers, will be the ones to find and release Slaanesh mark my words.

>>52619872
Tomb kings and brets however dont have much if any mention in the Age of Sigmar books

>>52619872
>Squats were dead
Yes. This was confirmed
>Tomb Kings were dead
Yes. This was confirmed
>Bretonnia were dead
Yes. This was confirmed
>Sisters were dead
No. This was never mentioned anywhere. Sisters remained to be a thing even through the gathering storm campaign.

Slaanesh is not confirmed dead. Only confirmed missing and her followers still searching for her. This implies more is to be told. I'm not saying that they won't write her death, I'm just saying they have not yet.

I'm not going to continue this conversation though because I know where it's going and this thread will not benefit from it. I've just said what I know, and I'll leave it at that

>>52619927

Yup. Khorne or his followers will find Slaanesh and, instead of killing her, will free her to let her take her position in the pantheon back from the Horned Rat.

>she

If it doesnt have a battletome its squatted until proven otherwise
but keep holding onto your dreams lol

>>52619942
Oh yes they do, TK at least.

>>52607437
it's neat to see my art making the rounds

>>52619704
Oh wow, an entire character who has some resemblance to the proper Chaos Dwarfs.

>>52619980
Eh I know her gender is ambiguous, I just used she because it was easier than writing she/he or zhe or whatever sjw bullshit pronoun we are supposed to use now

>>52619975
Slaaneesh is a HE.

>>52620000
stil mostly shunning the new lorebooks, any reccomendations

>>52620026
She isnt wrong in context of SheWhoThirsts. could also use "Them"

>>52619998
You don't know what squatted means then.

All of them, barring tk and brets, we're given mention in the grand alliance battletomes. For all intents and purposes they were given a place, no matter how minor, in the mortal realms. Read the grand alliance books.

Ran this 2k list last night. What do you think?

2k Ironjawz

Megaboss on Maw Krusha
(General, Might is Right, ToP)

Megaboss
(Battlebrew)

Warchanter

Wierdnob Shaman

15x Brutes w/ Gorehackas

10x Ard Boyz

10x Ard Boyz

3x Gore Gruntas

Ironfist

2000/2000

>>52620071
run the brutes in MSU theyre just better when you get 2 extra boss claws and Big Bladethingers.

Otherwise 10/10 wouldnt want to play against

>>52620099
This. Some units are best in multiple minimum squads, and others in big blobs

>>52620037

She Who Thirsts, senpai.

>>52620135
>>52620056

Pretty sure hes a faggot, so for him slaanesh is a girl.

So I had an empire army for WFB, wanted to try AoS with it. Had little to no success with it. But I do still think that I want to play AoS. Now I do know I do not want to play sigmarites or chaos of any form.

I was thinking about maybe some sort of dwarfs. The new slayers look too gay for me, although I do like some of the character runesmiths.

the sky pirate dwarfs seem mighty fine, I love all their models, or at least I have not found a single model for them I may dislike. But I worry that the ships are going to be obligatory, and those huge models tend to cost a lot. Would runing an army based around some core warriors, with characters support and some of the baloon jumpers as support be enough? Or are the sky pirates just like chaos that have to run two bloodthirsters in every lists.

>>52620167

the fuck leaving it there.

>>52620099
The brutes as a 15 man squad are brutal. Most will get in to swing due to 2" range. They will get most things into combat , and they will decimate anything they touch. For two of my games yesterday, I ran 2 5mans and a 10 man brute squad. The ten man squad was to hunt anything that needed a propa smashin. The 5 man were swiss army knives. Objectives and my Goregruntas weren't near? Put a 5 man brute on it. Goregruntas getting charged? 5man comes and help. Their doomstack coming? Put some 5 man brutes to soak up the hits and let the 10 man squad show them how to fight.

Granted though my two games yesterday was 1k vs dispossed and a 1.5k vs beastmen. While I hate the command ability for not always going off, I do realize in the grand scheme of melee only armies, Ironjawz are up there as maybe the best. Though maybe new khorne has a run for my money.

>>52620071
>15x Brutes w/ Gorehackas
How did the Battleshock phase go?

>>52620177
Empire, now freeguild, is actually pretty good, but a little harder to play. If you don't optimize them for buffing. Reece of Frontline gaming took one to adepticon and only lost two of his games. He's takes a lot about the army on his podcast and they're all about synergy. Each unit individually really kinda sucks, but it's when things work together that they become really badass.

We don't know enough yet about the kharadron overlords whether they can be effectively used without the ships. We just know the ships are transports and there are risks for using them as such.

>>52620071
If you are running 10-15 man units of Brutes, making their boss your general is quite good. Inspiring presence on them is invaluable.

>>52620177
I doubt that airships the faction will be competitive with just their likely high cost low efficiency infantry anon. Ironjawz could get away with that.

>>52620273
My were totaly not optimised. my "empire" army was a city of the wolf one. Ton of knights with hammers mounted and not, supported by a few priests and mages. From what I have seen being used in my city, free guild armies were made out of 60-80 shoting dudes with as many artilery cramped in to the list as possible.

Jesus, Kahardrons, does GW wants people to bite their own tongue everytime they say their army name, why can't they call them sky pirates? I didn't knew those ships are planed to be used as transports. I guess without them the army is going to be too slow. Wish I had more money

>>52620420
Again we don't know all the details about them. People haven't been able to analyze or practice with them yet.

>>52620420
>Jesus, Kahardrons, does GW wants people to bite their own tongue everytime they say their army name, why can't they call them sky pirates? I didn't knew those ships are planed to be used as transports. I guess without them the army is going to be too slow. Wish I had more money

The impression I got is that they're kind of okay with being slow (if you're even starting anyone on the table) since they're just shooty mcshooterston the shooting army of shooting. They'll mostly be using their speed to kite I imagine, but it will be interesting to see how it all plays out. Their melee people (balloon dudes) are flying infantry and probably quick, their gunline dudes just want to shoot, so it's only the battleline deckhands for whom speed is an issue.

>>52620471
I could have sworn the balloon infantry had at least a 12" move, and their named character was pretty badass from his warscroll leak

>>52619927
>>52619975
Khorne had a hand in the disappearance of Slaanesh.

>>52620500
I imagine a decent list could center around bringing the gunhaulers and balloon guys with that named character. So you don't need the ironclad or frigate and the company or Thunderers

We'll have to see their battleline options though

>>52620500

That's what I'd expect them to move, named balloon rich guy has a 12" flying move so I expect the normal balloon boyz to be similar.

>>52612896
>he's complaining about being able to take the best shock cavalry in the game as battleline
>wanting to take fleshless mindless shamblers as battleline when he could be riding forth with his brother knights on a bloodhunt

>>52620514

He's a god of chaos so that literally means nothing.

Khorne was glad when the Stormcasts turned up because it had been too long since his champions had worthy foes to fight.

By the same token I bet he misses smashing slaaneshi shit to pieces and killing his champions.

Also I'm not saying it'll be wholly intentional. The Khornate armies will march on wherever Slaanesh is being kept and accidentally release it while trying to kill it.

It basically writes itself.

>>52620195
why a daemon prince though ?
you could add for 180pts wrathmongers to bolster further your line

so what are some good Start Collecting boxes to get for me and a friend to play against each other?

I know the boxes aren't balanced against each other power-wise, but what two, if any, are close enough in power to go against one another without one getting BTFO by the other?

>>52620565
>overpriced sculpts
>far too elite to be truly viable @ 2k
Give my Grave Guard as VC battleline and some new Vampire+BK kits and i'll preorder 2k's worth of stuff day 1

>>52620662
Bloodbound v Bloodbound.

Another layer on the skin, getting nice and pale now

Need to highlight with pallid wych flesh

>>52620662
Bloodbound and Stormcast.

Is 150-200$ enough to build a 2k pts army for a non swarm army? And if not, then how much do AoS armies cost in general.

>>52620730

Fuck no. I'm still sitting on my starter set because I hate stormcast and have zero desire to paint them

>>52620662
>I know the boxes aren't balanced against each other power-wise, but what two, if any, are close enough in power to go against one another without one getting BTFO by the other?

They're all pretty close in power.

I recommend playing objective battles instead of just trying to kill each other

>>52620746
With a 25% of FLGS my Death army is planned to be around £130 for 1500 points
I'm getting 1200-1600 points of extra stuff slowly you just gotta be smart with money anon

>>52620779
are new armies cheaper then old ones, or are older armie cheaper. £ are how much worth then $ ? 2:1, sorry english is not a language am fluent in.

>>52620662
You can for sure pick a nurgle SC and maybe a FEC one

>>52620830
>are new armies cheaper then old ones
no idea, depends on the army

$200 is about £160 so from my local game store, and their discount...
So You'd be able to make a 1k list such as this

>Allegiance: Khorne
>Leaders
Daemon Prince Of Khorne (160)
- General
Bloodmaster, Herald of Khorne (80)

>Battleline
20 x Bloodletters (200)
10 x Bloodletters (100)
10 x Bloodletters (100)

>Units
2 x Skull Cannons (360)
Total: 1000/1000

But obviously each army is different

>>52620989
ok, I though there was something like that. But is there faction could make a 2k list with ~150-170$, that is good. I understand one could probably build starter sets, but I have been told to avoid those as they offten have trap or bad units.

>>52621052
no bad unit in all demons Starter sets. Sylvaneth is good value too

>>52621052
No idea
Best bet is too:
>pick faction
>make 2k list
>cost it up
Or just stretch out your time limit so you have more dosh, and models, but it'll take longer

>>52621052
flesh eater court is a good one
with two box you already have a solid base to go wherever you want

>>52621149
yeah, but two boxs cost 280$ I have around 170$. I understand that with limitless money you can buy anything you want and best armies. I was asking if it is possible to build a normal army for less then 200$.I will be ok if the anwser is not.
>>52621129
I do not know which faction is good, and I do not know which faction can make a list with the money I can have.
What is a dosh time limit?

>>52621245
Basically is sounds like you only want to spend a certain amount of money.
I'm saying is that if you want a proper 2k list, it'll probably cost more than $200 - so you'll probably have to spread the army across more months

>>52621269
Ok, I think I'll try a different game then. people here play only 2k pts games, and there is no way am going to wait 6 months to get my first game. thank you for the clear anwser

>>52621338
You could try ebay

>>52621338

If you split a starter with someone, buy a start collecting and pick up Gorechosen that should give you about 2000pts (it might be closer to 1500, not checked desu) for $160 assuming you buy from cheaper internet retailers and not direct from GW.

Just play a lower points level and build up, it's not like people are going to refuse to play you if you explain you've only got 1000pts or so.

I'm playing a 750pt game tomorrow because I won't be getting the rest of my stuff until Friday.

>>52621488
People here play only 2k pts, so a 1500pts army gives me nothing.I mean I could play 1500pts vs 2k pts, but it would be kind of a stupid. Plus I do not want to play chaos, I dislike how the models look like, and I don't have the money to buy 2 bloodthirsters. Maybe I shouldn't have sold my empire, probably me being stupid and thinking AoS will somehow have cheaper armies then WFB.

>>52621437
If I could I would. The problem we have here right now, is that all the WFB players sold their armies, and there are only new people playing AoS, a secondary market doesn't exist and stores were forced a long time ago to sell everything at the same price as GW sells them. So it is full price for me or no army.

>>52621245
Just buy Storm of Sigmar or that other AOS starter box and huddle down with your mates. Should be a laugh.

>>52621606
Are you implying that ebay isnt international my dude

>>52621607
I don't have any mates. Am new in the city, I was thinking about trying to play some table tops to get a life outside of work, but people tend to be very strickt about rules and all in a tournament mind set. So no proxy, full WYSIWYG, no non GW models, bases can't be square etc. Am ok with such stuff, because my old community was the same, it just makes it hard to start playing. Plus there is also the thing of 150$ being the equivalent of 75L of vodka. And that is more then 9 months of fun, without going out.

>>52621688
No, I just don't have a viable way to pay for stuff on it.

New thread where

>>52621704

Do you not have a debit card?

>>52621692
Well first of all, tell them to fuck off with no square bases. It ain't in the rules yet they all have to be round. And so do these people never try out new armies or a new unit? I'd proxy anything first to see if i like it for a little while. If I like it, I'd buy it, if not, oh well.

and no non-gw models? Jeeze. Like I buy GW plastics but I'd hate if I couldn't even buy third party minatures for anything. I even got a GW rep to tell me that I could even use 3rd party daemonettes as long as they were spread about in my normal daemonette squads.
