Review my 1000 Stormcasts? Will be facing Skaven, Sylvaneth, and a very defensive Lizardmen army locally

Tried to get some variety and fun units, Questor/Heraldor/Fulminators as the hammer for the anvil

Looks good. Just keep that Heraldor and Longstrike squad alive and you'll beat Seraphon and Sylvaneth almost 100% of the time

Not sure why youre using an Errant-Questor. I would swap it for a Castellant so you can buff your dracoths to 1+ or liberators to 2+ saves. Then I would cut the gryph hound and add a Javelin Prosecutor squad

Duncan posted some KO on his personal twitter.
Why does he use sand instead of Citadel™ Basing Material™?

>>53134474
Mostly because I want a way to sort-of assassinate enemy leaders. I know the Skaven player likes to buff his chaff up as hard as he can and use them agressively. That and I bought one at warhammer world the other day, and it's a nice sculpt

Agreed that a Castellant would be good, figured Relictor with Staunch Defender and the dual hit de-buffs of Lighting Storm and Divine Light would be almost as good

Javelin prosecutors any good? Tried them once or twice in a proxy game and I couldn't get into the right mindset for them

>Mostly because I want a way to sort-of assassinate enemy leaders
Just use your Longstrikes for that, they're really good at it.

Javen Prosecutors are pretty good. In my experience they do about as much damage as Prosecutors and cost half as much.

Would a range beastmen army work?
Just ungor with bows
Skyfires
Cygors
Maybe some regular ungor for battleline and a jabbasythe if he fits.
I know cygores are shit but might get some luck boulder hits in.

>>53134602
as much damage as Judicators*

They do provide a grear threat bubble though

I just kinda like the idea of a rogue paladin type knight, smashing in doors to check the people of the realm are doing okay, accompanied by a very loud and motivational heraldor
Plus you can smash trees into people's faces which is nice

the wash is a bit too heavy. Apply the wash but don't let it pool on the flat areas.
See the hornblowers head? Way too much wash

Also not a fan of the bone color but could be the light

I'm a bit concerned, seeing as KO have almost no mortal wound mechanics, that if I start collecting sigmarines it'll be an unfair fight against another person I talked into starting the game. Am I right?

>>53134688
>Longstrikes
>Longbow unit
>Wears power armor
>Ranged unit....
>....wears heavy plate armor

Another reason why Sigmarines are shit.
Stormcast should have been like 1-3 units in their whole faction, and the rest of the army (all spellcasters/prayerfags/archers should have been normal free peoples)

>>53134788
It's not power armour

>>53134777
lots of rend is the same as having mortal wounds pretty much.
Also stormcast are gay.

>>53134800
my point still stands.
Your bowdudes are supposed to be nimble and mobile, not walking tanks.

Longstrikes are crossbows. The longbow is a Judicator weapon.

Wait, there's only one undead book out for AOS? Wow.

Years ago GW put out a boxed set with a winged Vampire Lord, as well as a boxed set of Chaos Demons for both WFB and 40k. Can't seem to find them on GW's page so they must be older than I thought.

They're in storage but since I'll be in that neck of the woods was thinking of digging them out and either giving them to someone at the local gaming shop or seeing how they translate into AOS.

What books are the ones to get to start with?

Which book would cover the demons in that old Army Box?

Hell, does anyone know what boxes I'm talking about? It was the first Chaos Demons' army box that could be used for either 40k or WFB, and the Vampire Counts one with the flying vampire lord in it.

>>53137113
Some khorne negate magic wholesale. So as long as you don't try to magic the anti magic.

And tzeentch seems to spend most of his time "tricking" khorne and his forces into doing his dirty work.

So it sounds not terrible. Also khorne fighty plus tzeentch shooty/magic would be complementary tactics-wise.

They are going to do a live play test of it on next Wednesday on WHTV with the guy who made hinterlands

>>53143120
Everything will probably have rules.
In hinterlands its just 50% of your heros points, and points/unit size for a regular guy.
So if your unit is 100 points for 10, each guy is 10 points.

Then you get 150 points for your entire army plus magic items etc.

So they will probably do something like:
Wounds capped at 3-5 for a single guy
No model worth over 150 ponts
leaders cost 50% of their points from the GHB
etc

>>53143423
People would only pick Growth. giving everyone a d3 heal is too powerful unless you make it cast on like a 8 or 9

Healing really shouldn't be in AoS, but if it has to be it needs to be limited to specific spells on heroes OR self heals on certain regen units.

Heroism seems fine but boring, i like Haste and Lethargy those are creative and useful without being too strong

>>53144042
Healing D3 is not that much better than giving a unit +1 to save rolls.

Rule of One prevents casting the spell more than once.


Ignoring battleshock is very good for Destruction and Chaos armies that normally struggle with that sort of thing.

Just a quick question guys...

Would you like to play against some sort of npc mechanic ? I want to write a few campaigns using hinterlands as basic rules. But instead of playing against eachother I want to make it coop against the game using cards or a roll table for enemys.

Also I want to include treasures and items to buy

Should I upload the stuff once it is done ,or is there no interest at all ?

I was thinking more in line with painted armor rather than NMM, so just using non-metallic colours, because silver/gold is so common with them for obvious reasons.

Sadly I'm completly new to the game, so got a bit of a kick in the fangs when realized that only the general can use a comand ability, making multiple vampires in the army utterly useless since RoE prevents use of their own spell aswell.

Other then that, I'm just about ready to start.

Working on my undead army: A mixture of Resurected Seraphon, risen from the crashed ruins of a Slaan Temple-Ship by a Necromancer, and the forces of Luthor Harkon, resurected and arisen from the Abyss. Harkon has enslaved the prodegious Necromancer to his will, and plans on proving himself to Nagash, so as to re-earn his title as Mortarch.

>>53145185
The Seraphon fluff needs to be fucking clarified in the inevitable re-do of the battletome. They say the slann summon them from memory, but also that they dwell in Azyr? And that scar-veterans may 'cool down with age"?

So are they summoned individually every single time as memories, making them essentially just ghosts that never change, or have they been summoned from memory once, and now reside somewhere in azyr, be it in physical or energy form?

I can't seem to find a good explination of the mortal realms so forgive me.

Where are all the normal people? Are there living people in the Death realm for instance? Surely vampires needs subjects to lord over and feed on, same for Flesh-eaters that need starving mortals.

I've tried to look past the all the colours of the rainbow style of realm and see some depth in them to get inspired for an army or something, but things like >>53144894 honestly isn't helping.

The setting just feels hollow compared to WHFB's world, atleast for me right now, and it's a real hard time giving two shits about anything in the new settings, even though I want to.

>>53144894
whfb had the same kind of shit tier maps though

>>53145522
Majority of the realms boasted some sort of civilization pre-Chaos. Yes, they had rivers of metal or walking dead, but there were, and are living people in realm of death- these days, only the ones that swear fealty to Nagash though, he kindly terminates the others to join his armies.

Chaos kind of fucked everything up, and either murdered or enslaved or turned into nomad refugees the people of the realms that did not find safe haven in Azyr (the only realm not invaded by Chaos).

Now you also have Kharadron, the sky-dwarves which avoided chaos by going up beyond the reach of most chaos warbands. Presumably you will have such pockets of civilization elsewhere. And as the Realmgate wars proceed, the people of Azyr, so humans, dwarves and elves who found refuge there, return to already re-conquered lands and are colonizing it again. It's a post-apocalyptic setting with a optimistic twist.

>>53145251
The Realm of Chaos is a realm of pure magic that exists parallel to the mortal realms. The mortal desires and ideas leave imprints onto that realm, and when sufficiently powerful or numerous they can coalesce into living beings typically called "daemons". The Great Horned Rat was birthed in this way by the nascent gestalt of skaven willpower.

It is fair to assume that the Chaos Gods were birthed the swame way and use human emotions/ideas like anger, hope, lust, etc. They reign supreme because there are so many negative emotions being reflected from the human heart into the realm of magic.


So where to Seraphon fit into all this?

It was left vague on purpose - they are supposed to be mysterious and enigmatic, only the Slann know the truth, etc.

The current understanding is that Slann conjure daemons like any of the mortals and chaos gods conjure daemons. The difference is that chaos daemons are reflections of mortal desires, corrupted by Chaos, while the Seraphon are reflections of the Slanns will, uncorrupted and devoted to eradicating Chaos.

They take the shape of the Lizardmen because that is what the Slann are familiar with and they believe it was the will of the Old Ones. The lizardmen were, after all, created directly by the Old Ones - the Slann believe them to be perfect form.

>>53143883
Chaos alliance which inhabit and island / penninsula. Naturally rich in metals and wyrdstone the island is riddled with caverns infested by Clan skyre who craft ingenious but explosive artifacts and inventions. The surface has the dotted remains of a fallen city known as the pit ruled over by a bloodbound lord, the bloodbound are slavers and trade slaves to the skaven in returns for raw materials to forge weapons and armour. In the centre of the fallen city is a vast tower of black rock and steel which is inhabited by a cult of the outer dark who act as brokers between the skaven and bloodbound. The cult recieves arcane goods from the skaven and has bound the khorne followers to act as agents of the cult.

>>53145251
Would be infinitely cooler if they were just flesh and blood cruising around in pyramid space ships imho. Maybe have a few new jungle hide outs for spawning pools and what not to make it legit.

Lizard-men are freaking awesome, love the shit out of their old fluff.

Cute vampire girls army when?

>>53145753
Makes sense I suppose, though kind of sad because it makes it a Slann army essentially, as the only living/slightly undead models in it.

THey get summoned from memory, made of Azyr energy. After that, they're alive like normal until they are killed. The Slann live in High Azyr, where Seraphon can roam around in the lands the Slann have created for them.

Well I bought two boxes of skinks. 24 skinks per box. One of the skinks was miscast so I sent a message to games workshop. They are sending me a new box of skinks so now I have 72 skinks. What shall I do with so many cute skinks? I plan on converting at least 10 into chameleon skinks, so that leaves me with 6 units of regular skinks.

What do you guys think of taking 40 skinks in a single unit. 40 shots, hitting on 3+ wounding on 5+. I am already taking a stegadon so they can re-roll 1's and if I take a skink chief they can get a to hit 2+ rerollable. But with their horrible to wound stat that is still only 12 wounds before saves.

How do I make skinks work?

Yes this fucks up any hero phase buff tactics
Yes you will only succeed a charge 25% of the time
Yes everyone will casually walk over and beat the shit out of you if you get too close

Yes it's pretty garbage, and no-where near worth losing every single other deepstrike buff (Azyros, Vexillor etc)

They rarely rebase under the radar without any kind of announcement.

Skyfires get all the hate but looking through the book Tzaangors seem like the real crazy thing in that release.

Your 30 man buffed deathstar is 60 wounds, 4+ save, 6+ invuln, reroll all 1s with sorc lord. Run and charge with destiny dice gives you a 20" threat range on average. Tzaangor coven lets them attack again in the hero phase. You have to hack down the whole unit before getting at the greatblades. Its like 97 damage before saves which is about the highest I've ever calculated for a max size unit.

If any other faction like say Ironjawz had that it would be 100% auto include.

With Mystic Shield, Demonic Power, and shield saves they shrug 2/3 of attacks, and 50% of rend-1 attacks. That seems pretty tough. They cost about as much as 9-12 skyfires and do like 10x the damage.

The list I was messing with still gets 9 skyfires and the LoC and the Shaman and Gaunt summoner anyway. That just seems more effective than the 15 skyfire list with worthless pink horrors and stuff.

They look fast as fuck but everything is expensive with shit saves, 4+/4+ and no rend. They have extra attacks and shit on 6 but forgot to add a single source of +1 hit in the entire army.

Yes looking again I suppose so. Those 4+/4+ lines are just dismal though and make their Deadly Grace almost worthless. It would be so much better if it caused a mortal wound on 6. Messing with some sample list I could see an army heavy on Seekers and Exalted Seeker Chariots being at least ok.

Now that the new blood thirster and LoC are out, should I use my old greater daemons as daemon princes?
They are the same size base as a DP. What do you guys think?

>>53155775
I don't see an issue with this, might not fly at a tournament though but 99% of people will have no problems.

>>53155775
Yeah sure, I wouldn't say you couldn't use the old models but get the new ones anyway because they look fantastic.

So many implications, so little time.

I guess I can only speak to my own situation, but next year, assuming I don't work for Uncle Donnie and the gubmint, I'm gonna have some debts to pay off, which means less money for plastic crack

NURGLE COMING IN JUNE

Hallowed Knights: Plague Garden. By Black Library:
As the War for the Realm of Life continues, Lord-Castellant Lorrus Grymn leads the battered remnants of the Steel Souls warrior chamber against the sargasso-citadels of the Verdant Bay. The Hallowed Knights claim victory, but at a terrible cost – Grymn is lost to Realm of Chaos. Now Gardus, newly-reforged and fresh from the destruction of the Scabrous Sprawl, must lead his warriors into the foetid heart of Nurgle's realm in search of the Lord-Castellant, where they must once more brave the horrors of the Realm of Decay...

Written by Josh Reynolds.

So Snorecast are going into Nurgles garden to fight.

>>53155850

If he has any loans at all he should put that grant money towards the semester principle before they even take them out unless there are real day to day costs that need attending to first.

Spending it on models is dumb

>>53156252

Wait I thought Grymn already ran through the realm of nurgle and managed to make it out again before running into the sylvaneth and eventually finding Alarielle

>>53156252
god damn it... another SC + nurgle arc/release?

I mean, more power to the guys who will like more of exactly the same thing again, but there are other areas, and races, in AOS that deserve some spotlight.

Then again, I wouldn't complain if GW did finally release a proper, updated GUO. I would probably buy one.

>>53156386
All the rotbringer and daemons models are already there, they just need a book. That's a lot easier to do than an entire new army like KO so I doubt its an either or scenario.

>Stormcast lose a battle? Big deal, they just respawn and come back.

Yeah it aint that simple. If they get killed "normally" they go back, but there's no telling a few things:

1. If they'll forget everything they knew before or forget who they were prior to reforging. A lot like making a copy of a copy, if you keep doing it, eventually it loses fidelity and it becomes nothing. Stormcasts have died, but no one's really died A LOT and no one's entirely sure how much they can die. That's not to mention if there's a limit to Sigmarite as a material (since it is made from the core of the Old World and that old world is finite) or if there's a limit to Sigmar's power to keep them coming back and bound.

2. If they die and a seriously powerful entity or force can stop their soul from returning, they're presumed dead forever or at least their soul is trapped in such a manner they can't return. This happens a few times in the books under various circumstances. A few get dragged through a rift in reality caused by a Khorne Lord's special axe. A few get sucked into Nurgle's domain. Nagash is able to keep about 30+ of them pinned down until he got surprise attacked and lost concentration, but later he is absolutely able to entrap one and basically rape it forever.

In other circumstances lesser beings have tried to trap Stormcast souls and failed, so it's safe to say it takes a certain amount of power - and moreover Nagash is PROBABLY going to figure out exactly what fuckery Sigmar is using and stop him because he is the most pissed about things dying and not becoming part of his domain.

3. Some Stormcasts have been permanently altered because of shit that happened to them before. Thostos Bladestorm for one was permanently changed to Sigmarite (as in, his entire body, skin, everything) after getting caught in a vortex of Tzeentch-fueled magic and has never been the same since.

I've never played a game like this before but I have experience in painting garage kits. Should I get this game or wait for the new 40k edition?

What starter kit should I get for this game?

Thanks.

>>53157833
If you and a friend wants to start the game, then I suggest you get the starter box, if not then take a look at what Start Collecting box/army you find cool. Then it's just to start assemble, paint and play

I mean, it kinda is though right? if you strip out all the fluff stuff about them getting lobotomized and losing their personalities, in the end they really do just respawn, just as powerful as before.

in the end all SC will be a lot like necron warriors.

It's sad that you guys assume I'm retarded. I have all my debt squared away, that's why I'm spending this on Warhams.

>>53158080
Reasonable. It's a fairly general StD list without glaring weaknesses.
Having Daemonic Power on a unit of Chaos Knights is potent and allows them to punch very hard, Warriors and Chosen are good standbys and the hellcannon is an absolute bastard of an artillery piece.

Yeah with a weapon that you literally have to equip a stand for, REALLY looks like you need to be nimble famalam.

>>53141981
Have we ever received a source for that or is that just something people keep telling themselves to validate their choice for non-citadel paints and products?

Are gutbusters a /tg/ approved army?

>>53157833
One is high fantasy, the other is grimdark sci-fi. Really, it's up to you which one you prefer, eh?

>>53159846
Only if you field maneaters.

Skin Wolves stats at 120 points look like they're just completely amazing overall.

Nightmare Bloodlust:
For each successful attack roll of 5+ with the Skin Wolves’ Tooth & Claw attacks, you may immediately make an additional Tooth & Claw attack against the same unit.

What is this supposed to mean? Hit roll, wound roll, both?

>>53159846
Butchers, Ironguts and Ironblasters are great, the rest is mostly okay.

>>53160263
It's generally assumed to mean hit rolls, but it's FW, so it might just as well be charge rolls for all we know.

>>53143423
Debuff them all by making them the nearest enemy / ally and making it that they don't learn it in addition to other spell sources, eg Deepwood spell lore.

>>53144421
It'd benefit from not having variable fucking turns I'll tell you hwat.

Check out the Kunnin Rukk battalion. Lets you shoot in the hero phase (and then shoot again normally in shooting phase).

>>53160321
>and making it that they don't learn it in addition to other spell sources, eg Deepwood spell lore.
That is the intent

Wizards can learn one spell from one lore

>>53145522
Every realm has dwarves, elves, humans, orks, ogres, etc. They live in societies and have cities. For the Realm of Life, these mortal settlements are called the Jade Kingdoms.

There are living people in the realm of death. Vampires and nagash rule them most often. Some of these are literal brettonian kingdoms.

The old setting had 30 years of character development. Sigmar has had 2.

Mortal realms aren't a single continent on a single planet. They're places made out of magic, theoretically without true ending.

This week's Rumour Engine. A bit too vague, i feel. But then again i'm bad at guessing these.

>>53160811
Looks either Aelfy or Lahmian?

>>53160811
Kinda looks like the art deco stormcast style, but they dont usually have that kind of gem in the middle

i would guess aeldari but its not a soulstone

it looks very regal. maybe some kind of aelf?

I am making an AOS "competitive" rule pack based on the recent 40K ruleset. Here's what I have so far:

>Units with Leader cannot be targeted for shooting unless they are within 12” (units with Behemoth are exempt from this rule and can be targeted normally)
>Units that are selected to attack in the shooting phase that have any number of enemy within 3” can only attack enemy units within 3”
>Charging units always strike first in the combat phase
>No random turn order

What do you think?

>>53161115
Shooting wouldn't need stupid rule changes if people didn't ignore body blocking los.

>>53161262
>body blocking los

Is that a thing in the rules?

>>53161262
Im in favour of warmachine style LOS but its too complicated to implement because it requires standardized base sizes and heights.

Apart from being a logistical hassle that requires constant janitorial work to ensure it stays up to date with new releases and rule changes, it discourages conversions and that's a big Fuck You to the people that love the hobby aspect.

As much as I would like to see it happen, I don't see GW ever going down that road.

>>53161282
Its considered to be what the model can see, and that's as far as they've defined although they didn't even bother to specify that in the shooting section and just put it the magic section. People interpret this to mean a tree blocks you but you can shoot through a terrorgheist into a necromancer hiding behind 80 zombies.

>>53161429
>People interpret this to mean a tree blocks you but you can shoot through a terrorgheist into a necromancer hiding behind 80 zombies.
FAQ clarified that this is indeed how it works

As long as you can see it you can shoot it

>>53161360
There's specific answers in the faq declaring dumb shit like archaons sword not reaching goblins and thus being immune to his attacks. A conversion using a basing with a dragon sitting on a tower can't hit anything. Everyone just ignores that because its dumb, but its the official answer.

>>53161445
Yes, but usually I see people either just ignoring models as sight blockers or taking extreme liberties with what can see should mean to include the top of swords and banners.
