They're really nice models to be honest.

They don't really suit the general aesthetics of the Empires early modern stuff but I guess they could work as town guard or something.

In Vermintide only the state troops wear the landsknecht stuff while the local guard look more like that with chainmail.

Copying a post I made in the wip-general:

I'm thinking of making a unit of Nurgle Marauders inspired by the red robed acolytes in the picture, which I absolutely adore. Would you guys agree that Skaven Plague Monks would make excellent basis for such conversions? Their woe-staves can easily be turned into Flails and Great Weapons which I'll probably be mixing freely within the unit so that either weapon set up is availible for games. Regarding the model itself snipping off their tails and adjusting/converting/replacing the heads should be sufficient to accomplish my goal.
What do you guys think? I'd love to hear any input you might have be it from the point of fluff, gameplay or actually wip-related.

So just in general, are Bretonnian Peasant heavy armies an actual viable option to play with? I'm not looking for nitty gritty facts, but does the idea of having larger blocks of Cannon Fod-...I mean.. "light infantary" of the peasants sustainable enough to support maybe only two or three smaller units of knights? I know Brets excel at charging and breaking on their charges, but given enough peasants, couldn't they tie up specialized forces? Or is the fact that they would often turn and run too much of a risk to be effective?
>>
>>54039954
Do you mean in terms of fluff?

If so, yes, you can have 'professional' peasant armies, though this is mostly down to who their lords are. Yeomen (mounted skirmishers) are going to be your most professional, but even men-at-arms and bowmen can be hard fuckers. Carcassonne is known for a relatively high standard of peasant soldiery, as the duchy has little room to faff about, constantly facing pressure from especially nasty greenskins.

I'm not much of a crunch guy, but technically you could manage it, if you gave your peasants the right magic items to keep them alive and fighting, and were able to position your knights to at least be close enough to help with their Leadership. 1d4chan has some stuff dedicated to the idea, and I know they aren't the greatest with strategy but there's gotta be something there that's effective. It would be difficult, though.

I hope 9th age shit is okay here since it is listed in the general and there isn't a general else where.

WTF is with the 9th age team? I was reading their FAQ and it's full of "we love diversity, diversity is our number 1 goal" type of shit. WTF kind of group is making this game where in their stated goals the 2nd one is about left wing politics?

I was looking to maybe do some writing for them, write some fluff for 9th age since it's lacking at the moment and this cancer has completely put me off. Why the fuck would any one support a game who puts quality product behind being inclusive?
>>
>>54039954

You can do it but in 8E you would loose 90% of your games sadly. Brets were by far the weakest army in 8E and gimping themselves any further is borderline insanity.

Want to know something hilarious? At one point, anons were complaining that telling people not to talk about End Times in the title was actually causing people to talk about End Times more!

>>
>>54042029

M8 it's run by Germans so it's gone full on 'holocaust gilt, just wipe my shit out famalam'.

I had my suspicions when they 1) had a Brexit thread and only a handful of people supported it (it should be 50/50) and 2) they made Scotland a separate thread to the rest of the UK since they wanted to stay in the EU (and to generally be spiteful against the UK).

I'll use the rules as long as they're good but I'm never reading any of the fluff they write.
>>
>>54042122
I just find it really disappointing. I'd like to get into writing fantasy fluff, I'm sick of the modern stuff that doesn't tell a real story any more. I'd like to push a more traditional fantasy story, with 9th age being a community based product I thought it might be a good way to get my foot in the door. Instead I find a progressive train wreck.

How the fuck is a game based on Fantasy who's player base is mostly middle age men turned into this?

>>
>>54042164

Because they're all autistic, and not in the meme sense I mean genuinely borderline.

I have a lot of respect for how seriously they take rules development but have you seen the charts? There's about 15 different departments everything goes through before it even gets considered (bit like the EU kek). Most of them are very intelligent with PhD's etc. but I do wonder if this doesn't stifle creativity a bit? When Priestley wrote Warhammer his only experience was the little games he made with his mates, it was just free reign to do whatever he wanted and whatever sounded cool. I think T9A have suffocated it a bit.

Ehh I'm not getting it? Why so much hate with 9th? Are you guys not liking the system? or just the ideals of the creaters? You need to separate the two, or you'll do more damage to the community and effort of continuing fantasy...we're already fractured as it is. Don't displace your disapproval of the creators and their thoughts, with the actual quality of 9th edition's mechanics...
>>
>>54042933
You don't want progressives in charge of your game system. It's going to either destroy the system's quality by diversity hiring or it'll destroy the community by alienating the player base so a tranny can shit with the women
>>
>>54042933

I can separate the two, as I said as long as they keep writing good rules I'll keep supporting them but I won't be in a hurry to read their first novel.

Everything I said applies mainly to the fluff, being autistic can be helpful when it comes to balancing 200 different profiles.

This. I feel like most of the world is at this stupid point where they'll go "I really like this guy's work, BUT he's a conservative/he's an SJW" and then whatever they made or did is forgotten under people arguing about variations on the political spectrum.

Granted, I'll be disgusted by over the top 'check your privilege,' but I'm also disgusted by 'or niggers as I like to call them.' Both extremes disgust me. I just want to be in the middle, get along well enough with everyone, and enjoy shit. Who cares about the political ideology behind things? Business is business, fans are fans.

>>
>>54043277
If you read the original post you can see that business is not business when it's political. These people aren't trying to get along with everyone, they're trying to push a political agenda that will punish those who don't agree with them.

Lets say 9th age runs a tournament and you get paired with a tranny. It's a guy in a dress with a full beard and no tits. Claims his name is Snowsparkle and his pronouns are xe/zem/zhey. If you don't larp that it's a woman then you will get kicked out of that tournament no matter how factual your statement of "no, that's a man" is.

As someone who is rather /pol/ minded I can treat people decently even if I dislike them. I don't have to compromise in any way to not treat a negro like shit just because he's a negro. I am not in a political battle with that guy, we're playing a game and we can both set aside our politics while we do it. Where as I have to compromise and straight out lie to someone if I want to be part of a SJW community. In this case I'm told if I say the emperor has no clothes then I am a bad person. I am put in a situation where I simply cannot hold to my ideals of not being a liar while staying part of that community. If I see this man try to go into the woman's bathroom after I see a little girl walk in what am I to do? Just ignore it or should I say "Hey staff, a man just followed a little girl into that bathroom"? It creates a no win situation for any decent person because you're dealing with utter scum and degeneracy beyond anything a decent person will tolerate.

Live and let live doesn't work when people force themselves on you. If you want to wear a dress in your bedroom and call yourself Snow Sparkle mega cunt then go for it. Not my problem, isn't causing any harm if that's your fetish and you keep it private. This is something different, this is someone mentally ill demanding you obey their demands or you're not welcome in that community. It's forcing people into an ideological fight.

So, let's follow this step by step.

Step 1: People make game.
Step 2: Game makers say they're for diversity, use SJW buzzwords, whatever.
Step 3: They hold a tournament.
Step 4: You might meet a tranny.

Therefore, they're forcing themselves on you, and you have to boycott them and tear them down.

Guys, come on, we're better than this. Enlightenment...embrace it. Make yourselves better intellectually please... The people who are piloting the 9th edition game are humans. You are human. They are doing something to continue a game that you, them and I all love. You don't like their opinions? Grow up, and accept it.

Why are you so paranoid about getting influenced by others? If I read something stupid, I nod, say "That's stupid," and then run a mental check on how much idiocy there is in a product against how fun it is. If there's more fun than shit, I keep it. If there's more shit than fun, I throw it out.

It's like Victoria 2. Victoria 2 is fucking retarded about economics and pushes a bizarre protectionist agenda via its game mechanics. Keep in mind, this is a game that is supposed to be simulating the real world, not an explicitly fantasy universe, so it's easy to try to make a judgement call from there.

But I still play Victoria 2, because it's fun. Just like 9th Age. I haven't seen anything overt, and somehow, I'm not worried about getting brainwashed by a game where fantasy dudes stab each other.

Not liking something is not a phobia. People don't like stuff. It has nothing to do with fear of being influenced or whatever you want to call it. I think it's perfectly fair if a person would prefer there wasn't any political stuff mixed with their hobby. It doesn't even have to do with agreeing or disagreeing. It could be political stuff that a person agrees with but which they woulds till prefer was kept separate from their hobby. Yes, we understand that you can think "it's stupid" and just ignore it, but it doesn't really change anything about this situation. I think it's still perfectly fair for someone to prefer to not see political stuff in their hobby. There is nothing complicated or offensive about such a simple preference.

>Why are you treating SJWs like some boogeyman who is going to ruin everything you do?
I'm not sure about "ruining everything" but SJWs have been pretty clear about injecting politics into hobbies. That's not a boogeyman, that's real life. It would be a good idea to dislike people who inject politics into hobbies regardless of whether you agree with their stance or not.

>>54044158
Everything is inherently political.

Regardless of whether or not progressive politics is being inserted into tabletop games, the fact remains that it isn't being inserted into T9A.
>>
>>54044124
It's not about "wrong fun", it's about the community that exists around a game. I don't want to be part of a community that demands pronouns be exchanged before a game if gets upset if I say "damn that bitch wrecked my skinks". You have to understand that there is more to a game than the ruleset and there is a community that is required to use that ruleset.

Go on Malifaux facebook groups and you constantly see SJW types bickering over bullshit. If your community is full of these people then have fun using your sexy demonettes when they deep them sexiest for being topless women or whatever bullshit crusade they go on.

There is more to a game than just the rules. There is breeding a healthy community where people are not being held to a witch hunt if they're the wrong type of person. Magic is a good example of this, where they took a spot away from a pro player who would have qualified to give it to a female pro who failed for years to qualify for the event. It was purely based on muh vagina and made that event actively worse playing quality wise. This is what happens if companies have this ideology and gain influence. No longer is it about the game and who's good at it, it becomes diversity quotas and white men lose spots they earned so a chick with an afro who can barely roll dice can be spot lighted.

I want a healthy gaming community that works based on quality of product and quality of player. If I cannot trust a company to promote this then it's in my best interest to counter-signal them to try and build someone else up who won't work against my interests.

Yea man, I totally want my wargame to have "Fuck niggers and gas the kikes" on the front cover. Or maybe I actually like having politically neutral hobbies because it's unhealthy to have to deal with politics 24 hours a day. I don't want to have to sit down to a movie and go "oh hey race mixing" or play a game and go "oh hey the main characters a black chick who screams about white men oppressing her". Maybe I just want a space where I don't have to deal with any political bullshit and can just roll some dice, enjoy my evening out and refresh myself that way.

No wait fuck I mean 9th age first rule must be that any kike in a tournament must be shoved in an oven!

I guess that's fair if you want to be part of a tourney scene. Myself, I just go to my LGS and play with the group there. We curse, make dirty jokes, and drink beer.

Even local events suffer from these problems. As you advertise yourself as X people who are X like will be drawn to you. As such by promoting these ideas they draw these type of people into all levels of the hobby.

I was listening to the Grognad files podcast last week. They were going through old models and they found some topless women tied to a post. One guy commented how "oh that's so sexist, those women have no agency, wouldn't use those models today. Guess I stopped being a child who liked that stuff." It's fucking revolting that the gaming scene is being warped by these politics to the point where you can no longer just have a good old fashioned hero saving the princess from a dragon story because they people will abuse any one who doesn't go along with the ideology.

>>
>>54043969
Because they ruin everything they touch. They don't really think in logical ways and they have something like religious fervor about the believes and try to marginalise anyone who they even suspect might disagree with their political ideals.

Personally when I hear someone saying sjw I feel the same way as if it was the church being mentioned, you know mostly only intrested in pushing their agenda and anything else comes second place, with no hope to change or reason with.

In the past do-gooder dreamers felt joining the church was the best way for them to influence society closer to their own ideals and do 'good'. Now they join movements and become sjw's.

I don't want them to run anything or get close to any position of power or infulance at all. And that is the only thing they care about, positions of infulance and lecture others.

You really just sound like one of the example people Enoch Powell included in his 'rivers of blood' speech. I'm sorry, I know a bunch of people who are different can be scary, but lumping them all together in a conglomerate as being the source of all evil and problems really doesn't help you out. The world is not black and white like that - letting in everyone and anyone is bad, yes, but shutting everyone out because a few are scary is just as bad. The world will endure, even if it takes a while to get over the growing pains of all this shifting people around and fear.

The religious groups were never able to infiltrate the hobby. They were outsiders who demanded change from beyond the borders of our realm.

People like Will Weaton and that ginger cunt as taking lead positions in the community. They're promoting these ideas to invite more people like them into the community and hence push their agenda with more boots on the ground.

The religious groups never stood a chance, it was poorly peer pressure. The SJWs aren't using the same tactic, they're taking pitch forks and witch hunting within the community themselves.

No, the religious didn't do shit that way. We were already social pariahs because we weren't within the normal spectrum of hobbies. I don't know if you've ever actually played a wargame but the community is full of weirdos.

If you haven't noticed those religious groups held no power. They were the strawman the progressives put up as being in power, the same way george bush junior was in power yet was just as liberal as the liberals are

Geeks and nerds are natural outcasts. They're outcasts because they have weird hobbies and autistic focus on their hobbies. While everyone else is watching Friends/Breaking Bad/Big Brother nerds are spending their time else where creating natural social barriers.

Well that was a shitty, shitty blight on this thread. Now lets get back to the important questions.

I know that the Nehekharans were death obsessed, but why did they have two death gods? They have Djaf - the god of death - and Usirian - the god of the underworld, i.e. the place where dead spirits go. Wouldn't it make more sense for them to just have a Morr-like figure?

In some ways it's strange that they have such a distinct pantheon at all, since most human nations tend to share the same gods, or at least recognize them all as existing.
>>
>>54045260
I'm pretty sure that Morr is god of the dead, not god of death. He works more like a god of the underworld, he might as well be Usirian with a different name

Since there appears to be some people in this thread knowledgeable in the 9th age; what is the recommended point size for an average game? I know a lot of people play 4,500 points but have the designers actually said if they balanced the game for a particular size?

I'm wondering because T9A becomes a lot more appealing to me if playing 2000 points was more balanced than say playing 1000 points in 8E (which is to say it wasn't balanced at all). I want to go back to earlier editions where a block of 20 spear-men could actually do something.

I don't agree with /pol/fag on most political points, but he's right here. Rightwing fundies demonized the hobby from outside, they were politicians, large media pundits, and concerned moms.

They become company execs who get the rights to popular hobby franchises and change them to their liking.

>Oh waaaah! A faggot on podcast I listened to complained kinkshamed me about my erotic miniatures! Let me go on social media and find people who agree with me on it!
Back then, fundies would shame a nerd for playing with sexy daemonettes – and the nerd could go to the hobby community to find kindred spirits who liked the same shit. It was "shameful" and "sinful" in the outside world, but accepted within the community. Now, lefties who are rooted within the hobby community itself would shame that nerd out of the community itself, ostracizing him. See the difference?

People looking for a laugh. They know the goblins won't do shit but for a few coins and some of the almost worthless looting post battle they can have an extra unit that may kill someone and will undoubtly do something stupid that would raise moral of those around them.

Think of them like post battle entertainment for minimal fee and you have the perfect goblin mercs. They become legendary good luck mercenaries as their fame grows not because they're good but because they accidentally end up some where useful. As they sneak away from the battle they run into a flanking unit no one had seen over the hill or as the battle lines meet the enemies griffon gorges it's self on goblins so hard that it loses it's will to fight since it was just wanting flesh more than combat.

It's goblins dude, have some fun with it.

The fuck are you on about.

Being a moderate means you can compromise with other parties outside of your side of the spectrum rather than just the batshit insane fringe elements of your own party.

>>
>>54050123
Now you see why you're retarded

YOU are not offended by it, some people are. You can't define what is offensive because it's an emotional concept that you simply cannot prove one way or another. It allows you to bully people simply by stating an open lie which can neither be proven or disproven so must be taken at face value.

Painting your ogres black offends me. It's clearly a racist statement. I demand you're removed because I don't feel included any more with such racism on the table. Oh yea I know your entire army is black and it's themed on the Zulu but black ogres is a racist stereotype so I want you removed.

Completely sound argument, completely within the rules as written and yet you're fine with this because you're a retard.

"Compromise"

Literally meaning you don't have any ideals you simply go as the wind blows you. You sound like a 16 year old American kid who doesn't understand shit but wants an opinion on it.
>>
>>54050184
Dude, forum rules for "offensive" mean not being a cunt. That's it. Same no matter where you go.

That rule technically is even here on 4chan.

Nobody will give you the boot because some pisser gets a sad at your ham sandwich. Likewise there's no reason to get your panties knotted because a code of conduct sounds like it'll infringe on your porking.

>>54050265
It's not forum rules retard. It's part of their mission statement. Forum rules no one gives a fuck about, this is something they're pushing beyond the forum.

>You fell for a bad idea and think continuing to follow it is a good thing. Compromise man! No one gets anything they want, nothing works properly and no one really gives a fuck but hey, we compromised so we're the good guys.

As opposed to 'People butted heads against each other, no one got what they wanted but we didn't give up so we are the good guys'?

Compromise in politics generally works with prioritisation. They give in areas they consider less important to get support in areas they do consider more important.

So, I'd kinda' like to start a campaign of some sort, but I play daemons and I'm not really sure how I'd factor them into it on account of how finite they are. Things would probably be taking place just in the old world, with maybe wood elves, Empire, and Greenskins, so how would you guys suggest going about assymetrical campaign goals for the factions? More importantly, how do I explain the constant presence of my daemons without pulling a "It's Chaos I ain't gotta' explain shit" or omnipresent cultists that keep summoning them at just the right moment?

Once summoned into the world alongside a Greater Daemon, a Daemon army can faff about until defeated.

They actually have to be killed or diminished actively to vanish back into the Warp.

You see it in a TT twin book. A Slaaneshi warhost was mucking about until they tried to invade Asuryan's shrine and they started dissipating from holy energies on the site. Then Tyrion beheaded N'kari and the rest fizzled away wih him since he wasn't keeping them stable anymore.

This isn't 40k, Daemons don't need sacrifices and stabilizing Warpstuff to appear. In places with lots of magic they can simply walk into the mortal world, or are born as Godless Daemons.

I remember that from the 8th ed Daemons book, but I thought it had to do with the winds of magic going apeshit which is why they could even make their way into the mortal realm in the first place.

How do you "not tolerate" politics that have already taken root inside the hobby?

When a nerd was shamed by rightwing fundies, he could find support within his hobby group. But when a nerd is shamed by lefties, where can he find support if they're already inside his hobby group? He'd be ostracized and left with nowhere to go for support.

Fundies shamed and attacked the hobby as a whole, but that also made the nerds inside the hobby band together and support each other. Lefties instead co-opt the hobby and instill their idea through it, and those who don't fit are pushed out of the hobby.

>>54050027

Sounds like you haven't had a group split in half and go to shit because one side was offended by tiddy and felt entitled to demand anything tiddy-like to be banned, and the other side doubled down in a display of dorf-like stubbornness. Disclaimer: It wasn't WF, but it still was /tg/ Before, it was a matter of talking things out and finding a compromise. But this recent political wave has encouraged a climate where people of certain ideological leanings feel entitled to have everyone else bow down to their views and sensibilities because they're on the right side of history or some shit, instead of living and letting live, or trying to find a common ground. Kinda hard to ostracize politics when politics have the power to ostracize you.

Except hit like this didn't become a problem until the left started making nerd hobbies political. Previously most nerds were libertarian/apolitical. If it was cool then that was all it took to be accepted. Didn't matter what you were outside the game as long as you played by the rules within the game.

Now that tolerance has been used to warp and destroy the hobby where we now see staff members demanding more diversity and less white men. Strange how the problem might not be the original userbase, but might be these newer people who brought their shit with them into the hobby.

It's not about "That Guy", they always exist and always have. We've dealt with them just fine. The problem is the SJWs who want to co opt the industry and turn it into a propaganda machine while forcing the original user base out. Which you clearly support.

I mean fuck people who spent time, money, blood and sweat to build this hobby. They don't deserve anything because muh trannies and muh niggers MUST be included in something they never built, never cared for and will soon abandon for a new crusade just like they always do.

Crossbows are pretty much always better than handguns in 8E, which is sad since blackpowder is kind of the Empire's thing.

Spears vs. halberds is a more personal choice but I prefer halberds.

Why do the Bretonnians seem to have so little interaction with the High Elves? I know that the joke about them larping about as Silver Helms was just that, a joke, but it does make me wonder why such a connection is drawn between the Wood Elves and the Bretonnians when the Wood Elves are almost nothing like the Bretonnians, and why the High Elves seem to have almost little to no interaction with them despite their societies being somewhat similar - they each consider their lands to be blessed and their respective nations to be bastions of all that is good, they have a powerful magician-queen that speaks for their most prominent female deity (though that is also true of Ariel), the nobles take pride in martial service and the commoners are conscripted for the sake of duty.

What do people think about hard-balancing 1000pt games for 8th edition?

Because GW point values are inherently skewed (I'm looking at you Demigryphs), I think each army could be given different points values to play with - it makes it more fitting from a narrative perspective as well. (So a difficult army to play like Beastmen might get <1500 points to work with, versus Empire's 1000pts)

It'd be something like:

Empire 1000pts
Chaos 1050pts
Orcs and Goblins 1000pts
Elves 1100pts (thoughts?)
VC/UnL 1250pts equivalent
TK: 1500pts
Beastmen 1500

And so on. Can anyone think of good points values for the other factions?

Just an idea though. Fun!

Also can't believe how much Demigryphs and Steam Tanks screw up balance in 8th edition low points games. Why take Greatswords when Demis do it so much better? 1+ armour is suffering.

Possible Solution: if there was MKB (monstrous killing blow - not HKB) to take out monstrous infantry the game would be a lot more balanced.
>>
>>54064701
well as with all things you are free to try it with your friends , imo anon with demis you are still putting a bajillion points into something that will die to a humble cannon or lucky magics. so I think it's not as unbalanced as you'd think.

could you not also counter them and stanks with a good cheap tarpit unit?
>>
>>54064700
>all these bone(r)s and yet I cannot cum
>>
>>54064700

>>
>>54064963

agree, however at lower point levels certain factions don't have access to lucky magics or cannon equivalents.

agree with the stank solving, but the issue is more to do with demigryphs... strength 6 equivalent with +1 armour save and 4 attacks each, for (roughly) four points a model?


Meanwhile Empire gets to have 2 helblasters/or cannon and 2 units of demigryph at 1000pt. one of each is fine, sure, but two of the things makes it ez mode surely?

You could try playing with the Finnish border patrol rules (http://www.nopat.fi/2012/fantasia-ja-scifi-pelit/border-patrol-living-rulebook/). I'll translate the article here.

General rules

i read a lot of people hating on call of the beatmen dlc, why? Is it just overpriced or is it straight bad?
>>

i really really dislike your approach, try and enhance the balance instead of putting arbitrary limits.
>No more than 30 models who can shoot at 20'' or farther with S3 or stronger. No more than 40 shots per shooting phase for those
this in particular, why? Especially for wood elves, but also in general this is just stupid.
>>
Line of Sight (Simple Line of Sight ) [copypasted]
Blocking: Hills, Buildings and impassable terrain. These block Line of Sight, even to other blocking terrain (You can’t see through it)
Non-Blocking: Rivers, marches and swarms.
Interfering: All other terrain and units. Does not block Line of Sight (You can see through them/it)
If you shoot through interfering units or terrain there is a -2 to hit penalty, only -1 for woods (never cumulative).
If shooting at a large target, units in buildings or on hills there are no to hit modifiers for interfering or non-blocking terrain or units, unless it is an interfering wood.
When such a unit is doing the shooting there are no to hit penalties for interfering or non-blocking units or terrain, other than interfering woods.

Tournament scoring and scenarios
Tokens / Objectives / Table quarters
Only units that cost at least 75 points can hold an objective or a table quarter. Any unit can contest. An unit can only hold or contest one thing, so not both an objective and a table quarter. Fleeing units can't hold nor contest. A lone Hero can contest only if it left its unit during the previous player turn or earlier. A lone hero can never hold objectives, even if mounted. Scoring generally:

-A unit, Hero or monster reduced to half of its original wounds is worth half of its original points cost.
-Units fleeing at the end of the game are worth their full points cost.
-A slain general or BSB is worth 50 points. Stolen standards are worth 25 points.
-A living general at the end of the game is worth one tournament point. This can't take the player above the maximum tournament points limit for the turn.
-Tournament points per turn max 12 : 6 +/- 1 for the difference of every 100 Victory points. Some scenarions have their own scoring.
>>
Scenario 1
Background: Armies fight for weapons / magical wells / food / whatever left in the middle of an abandoned battlefield.
Board: 48’’ x 48’’. 2 objectives are placed on the center line of the board, 12'' from the central point.
Deployment : Alternating
Special scoring: Each table quarter is worth 50 points. Objectives are worth 100 points each.

Scenario 2
Background: Nothing.
Board: 48’’ * 48’’. One objective in the middle of the board, one objective in both deployment zones. An objective has a 4'' radius. The objectives have to be entirely in the deployment zone. The player who gets to place the first objective is decided randomly.
Deployment : Alternating
Special scoring:

-Each held objective is worth 2 game points.
-The player who has more units in the opponent's deployment zone at the end of the game gets 1 game point (fleeing units count as destroyed).
-A living, non-fleeing general and BSB at the end of the game are worth 1 game point each.
-The player who destroyed more of the opponent's units gets 1 game point (fleeing units count as destroyed).
-The player who has more units on the board at the end of the game gets 1 game point.

Game points are converted into tournament points like this:

Difference of 0 points: 6 – 6
Difference of 1 – 2 points: 7 – 5
Difference of 3 points: 8 – 4
Difference of 4 points: 9 – 3
Difference of 5 points: 10 – 2
Difference of 6 points: 11 – 1
Difference of 7+ points: 12 – 0
>>
Rules for unit advancements in campaigns:
After a game a single surviving unit receives veteran status. Veteran choices can't be duplicated in the army, nor can 1 unit have 2 choices. Veteran choices must be chosen immediately after the game before finding out who your next opponent is. If a unit is destroyed, it loses its veteran status.
Stubborn (Infantry and Monstrous Infantry only): The unit is Stubborn with a maximum ld of 7, which can't be improved in any way. One use only.
Bloody Butchers (Infantry and Monstrous Infantry only): The unit has Killing Blow during the first round of combat when the unit charges. Riders of Hell (Cavalry, Monstrous Cavalry and Monstrous Beasts only): The unit has Quite Devastating Charge once per game, declare its use before measuring charge distance. Quite Devastating Charge is like Devastating Charge, but gives the unit a maximum of 3 extra attacks in total.
Mythical Monster (Monster or Monstrous Beast only): +1A and +1W.
Favoured of the Gods: The unit has Magic Resistance 1.
Hard to Kill (Hero) : +1W.
Cutthroats (Fast Cavalry and Skirmish Infantry only): The unit has Ambushers.
Doom Device (War Machine only): The war machine may reroll a result on the misfire table once per game.
Steel claws: The unit has Armour Piercing. Favoured by Fate: 6+ ward Save (does not stack with other ward saves).
Defensive Lock (Infantry): When receiving a charge, during the first round of combat the unit gets a maximum of 3 extra attacks from an additional rank.

>>54067350
Gunlines kinda suck and you have to limit shooting if you want to play with free measuring.

I forgot to add that the sixth spell in any lore has to be rerolled. At some point Wood Elves were apparenly allowed 10 extra shooters that couldn't be core core, at the expense of being able to take treekin.

Bumping my own post since I wanted to ask if anyone know any lore/fluff regarding these red little acolytes in the original picture I posted.

In anyone's interested here's my first wip-interpretation of one of them.
>>
>>54063888
is this true of the empire only or are crossbow also better in a dwarf army (8th edition)?
>>
>>54072549

This is generally true for both of them, the extra range of the crossbow means an extra shot which will do more damage than one volley of handguns even with the armour modifier.

I think Dwarfs have a slight edge though since their quarrellers can be quite good in melee when given a great weapon so they may be able to skirt the firing range of the handgun better than an Empire unit.
>>
>>54072549
>>54073102

Actually scrap that, thunderers can't take great weapons like quarrellers can, which in my mind definitely makes them worse.

I think handguns still have a place though, against heavily armoured armies like WoC they can be good as a detachment to stand and shoot for the parent unit.
>>
>>54072549
>>54073102
>>54073152

What the 2nd anon said it's generally true BUT if you're not playing strictly competitive I feel like there isn't such a huge difference between the two so much so that for me it makes them a matter of personal preference.

I do like both and often field a mix of options. The extra range of the crossbow is nice, especially on larger boards and the armour piercing bonus imo isn't that much of a gain.

I just love the idea of dwarfs shooting rifles

But generally speaking non WM shooting rarely makes any true difference in a game
>>
>>54073252

Yeah I wish handguns were better, what they should have done was made them both the same range and made crossbows fire an extra shot so it became a dichotomy of killing lots of weak enemies with crossbows or a few well armoured enemies with handguns. Not accurate of how the weapons worked but it would have made the game better.
>>
>>54073152
Good Dwarf players use Quarrelers and Thunderers.

Gav Thorpe described Dwarf tactics as a bear trap. You use your ranged that way.
Quarrelers with GW are center with your artillery behind them. Thunderers are to their sides, and your melee split behind them.

Kinda hard to say desu. If conversions count then I just gotta have to go with Warriors of Chaos due to the amazing variation that can be accomplished with and within the same unit-type.

If we're not counting conversions then I have to with Empire Greatswords since I just love me some Landsknechts.
