Age of Sigmar General

Are thos chaos knights flying?

Age of Sigmar style ruleset for 40k when?

>>48291275
Rumors point to fall off next year. While it may not be to the level of aos, the rumors say gw recognizes how bloated and needlessly complex the rules have gotten, and are looking to streamline and slim it down, make it more friendly for new players and the like.

>>48291243
aka lazy art

Does anyone know how similar, size wise, a 40k maulerfiend is to a slaughterbeast? Think it would be a fun counts as.

> Don't want empty my entire bank account on 10 models

Do you see my problem?

I would like to cheer for death, but all their leaders except for Ushoran are just lame-ass dipshits.

>>48290994
I really think DE culd technically be on destruction, at least for how they make sacrifices and religiously adore murdering and slavering

>>48291315


Z sells varanguard for like $30 for 2

>>48291303
I would approve WH40k age of sigmar style, but overall without points, (as original was AoS) so i could play sisters of battle more freely

And again, here are the rumored releases for the next 6 months

>>48291344
Meh, I've never been a fan of recasts. I know I have no right to complain about it but still.

>>48291315
Until they get allegiance abilities, just get a unit and throw em into a chaos undivided list or something.
Or, run a Gaunt Summoner and 2 units of varanguard, and summon tons of demons. Wouldn't be much more expensive than your average army if you go ebay or flgs

Still asking for the "How to paint Ironjawz", cant seem to find it in the pastebin, if anyone have a link or have it, could you please upload it?

So, Im starting up a Slaves to Darkness army. For about 30$, I got a Chaos Sorceress and a regiment of Warriors. I've also had my local gameshop order me a blister of a Exalted Hero of Chaos. I think after that, I'll be buying a Slaves to Darkness Start Collecting! Box. But, after that, I'm a little lost on what to buy next. I am not too sure about devition to a particular chaos god? Not really sure that any of them really match my tastes, but I guess im not totally against mixing in some more God specific units, like Bloodbound or something like that.

All I know is, i'm ready to pillage some villages!

>>48291377
Still waiting for Heinrich Kemmler to return with Settra to form part of the Chaos aligned undead faction.

Should I shelf my Beastmen and go full Slaves to Darkness/Bloodbound? Beasts are pretty cool but the lack of good formations and Heroes kind of sucks.

>>48291339
No, really not. As much as I would like it for my DE and Ogers to be on the same Alliance they don't really fit. Destruction is too strongly defined by the orky type of Anarchism. Wreck everything for fun with no real personal gain. DE are still to structured and ordered for stuff like that. Where they would fit the best in my opinion would be a Grand Alliance Darkness or Unaligned or something, shared with the death stuff.
An alliance that is mostly defined by the powerful selfish ambition of it's members, with no regards for others. Costs be damned as long as others pay for it. Would have fit both the DE, the Vampires and even the Tomb Kings to some extent.
GW just decided they wanted a pure undead faction, so now DE has to be Order and death is a tiny alliance ruled by a guy that trips over his own ego.

Did allgates and sylvaneth epub surface yet?

So does the lava drake match the dread saurian in size or is it 2 smol

>>48291243
I think they're all emerging from a realmgate that is floating behind them and falling unto the ground. Most of them seem to be in some kind of downward motion.

>>48291691
Lava drake? You mean the Fyreslayers magmadroth? I'm not sure but I think it's quite a bit smaller than the saurian.

>>48291336
You kinda forget Settra and Arkhan.
>>48291495
>Settra
>Bowing to chaos
Not gonna happen, and Kemmler a shit.

>>48291803
Ahh that's all I was asking. It looked rather sizeable in the pics

>>48291810
Yeah, Settra actually put his hatred of Nagash aside to fight chaos because they dared to offer him a life of servitude to them

>>48291810
Bitch, Grandmaster K is best necromancer!

>>48291840

That scene was hands down the best (and only good) thing to come out of End Times.

>>48291651
>allgates and sylvaneth
Nope, but will upload GHB as soon as possible.

>>48291857
That's easily Arkhan the Black.
Talking about Necromancers, how's the book about Vanhel ? I have yet to read it.

>>48291875
I got atleast a laugh out of Malekith surrendering to Grimgor.

>>48291857
>Calls himself the Grand Liche
>In a setting with Nagash
He aint shit compared to the Big Bone Daddy

>>48291905
I think Vanhel was duped by Vlad to become one of the greatest necromancers of the age. Then he took control of the reanimated victims of the Skaven's own plague to backfire their entire invasion.

>>48291959
Lichemaster is a title that Heinrich Kemmler earned after beating a liche. Which used to be quite the achivement because all liches used to be transcendent top tier necromancers.

>>48291940


I was hyped for Karl Franz Ascendent in Glottkin and then in Archaon they just went "lol nope he's literally Sigmar" and then still acts like a gigantic chump

That one, the Spooky one and Gnarlwood seem to be the 3 strongest

Does anyone have the How to Paint: Warriors of Chaos booklet?

>>48291875
Eh, Nagash and Glottkin were in large parts pretty good, Khaine was weird (and inappropriatly funny, what with all the phoenix kings basically wearing an asbestos suit), Thanquol was mostly forgettable and Archaon was infuriating and terrible, a few good scenes notwithstanding.

>>48292351


>hey empire
>you know how we retconned killing Volkmar?
>yeah well we're going to kill him again even worse, turn him into the vessel for Nagash, then unceremoniously murder off Luthor Huss and most other named characters

Stupid question from a new player.

In the AoS app, is a "Battle pack" simply the essential rules for a specific book?
Lets take the Ironjawz: Battle Pack for instance, does it contain all the warscroll battalions, scenarios and such, and just skips the fluff part? Or do I still gain something ruleswhise by buying the book?

I was thinking on this as I wan the book IRL for fluff and just to have on the shelf, but I want the essential rules in the app when I go play, but I don't want to buy the army book twice if I can help it.

Had anybody shared the Sylvaneth or All Points ePubs yet?

>>48292488
Gelt turning into an opportunist traitor was one of the few parts that made perfect sense.

>>48292515
Just pirate them.

>>48292515
It's going to be the battalions. The other scrolls are already in the app. Buy the book and get the fluff. It's better if you're popping your cherry.

>>48292586


Is there someplace we can get the battalions in the Grand Alliance books? Those aren't even scanned as far as I know

>>48292744
they are scanned, you can find an imgur album link in the pastebin

So, I've been fiddling some more with the stormhost I plan on using for the summer campaign, and I've narrowed it down to two lists, both with the same overall theme.

----------------
Radiant Gallant rapid reaction force (Order allegiance; 2k pts)

Lord-Celestant (Reckless, Relic Blade) - 100
Liberators (5; swords&shields, grandsword) - 100
Liberators (5; hammers&shields, grandhammer) - 100
Decimators (5) - 200
Protectors (5) - 200
Judicators (5; crossbows, shockbolt) - 160
Judicators (5; crossbows, shockbolt) - 160
Skyborne Slayers - 140

Retributors (5; 2 starsouls) - 220
Retributors (5; 2 starsouls) - 220
Prosecutors (3; hammers&shields, grandhammer) - 100
Hammerstrike Force - 120

Knight-Venator (Phoenix Stone) - 120
Prosecutors (3; javelins&shield, trident) - 80

Pros: diverse arrangement of troops; still decent mobility after the teleport
Cons: need to build and paint 4 Retributors and 3 Prosecutors; Prosecutors vulnerable
----------------
or
----------------
Radiant Gallant rapid reaction force (Order allegiance; 2k pts)

Lord-Celestant (Reckless, Relic Blade) - 100
Liberators (10; swords&shields, grandswords) - 200
Liberators (10; hammers&shields, grandhammers) - 200
Decimators (5) - 200
Protectors (10) - 400
Judicators (10; crossbows, shockbolts) - 320
Judicators (10; crossbows, shockbolts) - 320
Skyborne Slayers - 140

Knight-Venator (Phoenix Stone) - 120

Pros: nearly everything one batallion; total battleshock immunity; large units
Cons: need to paint 10 basecoated Judicators; mostly anti-infantry
----------------

I am really uncertain which one to go for. I wish I hadn't dragged my feet and had already painted the lot.
Thematically and mechanically the two are fairly similar, but I suspect they'll require some fairly different playstyles.

If things continue like this, order will win the campaign with no sweat. Do you think there will be some events were currently losing factions will get extra points for wins or something like that, to make it more exciting.

So with all the hype and increased player base around my locals. Ive decided to get back into working on my hallowed knights

Speaking of which; WHEN DID MORE AUDIO BOOKS COME OUT?!

last thing i listened to was nagash detroying tarsus and manfred running away. Now there are 4 new cds?!

GAS THE LIZARDS

REALM WAR NOW

Have these things changed any today? I don't actually see much difference from yesterday.

>>48293245
It depends, the thing is with Strigoi the term is associated with other Intelectual Properties depicting roughly the same type of thing.

If you were to trademark the word Abhorent, specifically for that unit (with a very precise description of what it is), then it should be pretty simple.

Trademark laws are a bit easier to work with than Copyright in regards to this sort of thing as long as you're specific. Any word is fine (no matter how generic it may seem) as long as it's given a very precise definition.

>>48293245
There's a comic and tv series that uses that word for it's vampires. And it's likely not the only one. So yes.

>>48293324
Greywater Fastness had some gains on the sides of all sides expect chaos, who lost a good bit.
In the Living City Death gained a lot of traction for a while, but already lost most of it again.
Phoenicium had some Order/Chaos contention for a while (not to the point of actually threatening Order's dominance, mind you), but it seems to be back to the standard arrangement for the time being.

Other than liking to have the books in the shelf of my hobby room, I do believe in supporting the hobbies that I like.

>>48292625

Ill get both, I just don't want to carry my book around when I go play. But I didn't want to buy 2 books (one real and one IRL).
In 40k they have something called "gamers edition" thats like a third of the price, no fuss and just the rules. I was mostly interested if it was the same?

this, he beat a cabal of them around the time Nagash was still banished.

I loved the reveal that Krell wasn't a mindless automaton but was actually the guy in charge between he two.

Arkhan is based, he was even good in the shitty historical series about Nagash with his lo e of being free and keeping a throwing knife up his sleeve from his gambling days.

>>48292002
Did Vlad show up in the plague books? I recall that his descent into necromancy was essentially the result of seeing his brothers family all die.

so I know there's been a lot of talk about how odd the StarDrake is and what it's actual function is, but what's the actual best way to run one? It's obviously a horde/elite unit Mulcher, should the rest of my list be balanced around having heavy hitters to take out monsters + support stuff?

>>48293519
Thank you, much appreciated.

>>48293701
he's not strong as any other 500 points monster. He hits hard-and can gulp entire enemies whole!-but not as hard as archaon or alarielle.
The thing he does, he shits every turn mortal wound on a lot of units on the battlefield, so he is really good at softening the enemy army before finishing them with a single charge.

>>48293519
Hey, do you have any other books? Like, persay, this:

Guys, I have a question; Would you guys play against somebody who used Pic related in their Vampire counts army? Its the Goritsi Starter box from wrath of kings, and for 30 dollars, USD, you get

2 Vampire Expies
14 Grave Guard/Necromancer/Vampires
8 Werewolves around the size of Vargheists
1 Werewolf the size of a Varghulf
1 Werewolf the size of a Crypt Haunter

This seems like a really kick ass deal; my only problem is that one, its not GW, and two, They look dangerously furry

>>48294090

As long as they are painted at least two different colors IDGAF. Looks great to me, have fun.

>>48294090
The game is a big cluster of fetishes.
Which is fine by me.
The game itself is pretty great, its only HUGE problem is that its dead.
Like, really dead.
And i don't suggest you to use them in Aos, the models are not in heroic scale and look completely different from anything from GW on the table.
It would just look different.

>>48294090
It'd kinda bother me if you're doing it soley because its cheap. If you wanted to use them because you really loved the models, sure, but it doesn't seem that way.

>>48293701
The Stardrake, regardless of rider, is basically meant to support the rest of the Chamber Extremis, i.e. your Dracothian Guard, all of which hit like a ton of bricks and are hella tough. Use the Stardrake to blunt enemy units that are about to be charged, dig out tarpitted units and troubleshoot where needed.
For example, don't be affraid to leave the drake in melee while the fulminators pull back for another charge. He's tough enough to last a while.

>>48294090
I wouldn't mind, the werewolves look appealing enough and, provided they are painted, would look pretty decent on the table. That said, that unit of three monopose witches is no good. That would look awful by modern standards.
Also, for some reason I am getting major Warmahordes vibes from this set.

>>48294148
I think they fit fine enough with the scale. I've put them up with my GW and Mantic units, and so far, they look right at home, albeit a little different in style.

>>48294175
Well, its not just that; They are gorgeous models for the price, and are awesome looking to boot. I already own one of the leader Vampires as a solo, because I loved the mini so much. I bought it off a friend who was using the wardancers as a SoB conversion, and trust me, its lovely. I didn't know about the game itself till I started looking for a way to expand my AoS armies, but from everything I've sern, they are perfect.
>>48294133
Oh, I plan to definetly paint them. I wouldnt be caught dead playing with a half painted army

Pic related, its the Wardancer I painted, flanked by some Skele's. 3 down, 47 to go!

facing orruks tomorrow, will bring sylvaneth (1500 points)

this is my list:

>gnarloot wargrove
>treelord ancient, +1 armor, ignores -1 rend
>branchwych, dunno about the artifact
>drycha
>5 tree revenants
>20 dryads
>6 kurnoth hunters with swords

should I change anything?
how the fuck do I bring down the special hero on mawkrusha?

>>48294321
Excuse the shitty face on the wardancer, im still trying to do touch ups on that.
She was one of my furst attempts at painting flesh, unfortunately. I intend to make amends with the new box

Dudes, I love Dragons. I want to build a whole dragon themed army. Sadly, the only Battleline dragony units are Dragon Knights only if you're Ordo Draconis allegience, so no Extremis Chamber stuff, which kind of takes the wind out of the sails.

Just take two units of liberators and fill the rest with Dracothians and Star Drakes.

True; but in a undead army, I think there is the excuse that you want your hero's to be indentifiable from the rest of the army. Besides, another problem with that mini is that she is stuck in a indented base, making her even shorter than nornal.

>>48295164
I agree, but a vampire (or any hero) shouldn't be smaller or slenderer than a skeleton it just looks silly. But, just cus I feel that way and would never personally use one like that, I would never stop another person using the model they like, unless they were trying to claim it as something preposterous!

Oh, of course! Im not gonna claim that she's something big and beasty. I plan on running her as just a regular Vampire Lord, maaaaybe flying, equipped with a Cloak of Mist and Shadows.

I hated AoS... No, you don't get it, I HATED AoS... They robbed me of some of my best memories of youth with this game, and I hated GW for it.

And I was like "Who cares, its a kids game anyways... pfht.. not even using points". Then I met an old friend who I knew played Warhammer back in the day, and this dude started talking about AoS and that they had a group that played regularly. I went and watched, and was baffled as they where having some serious fun, and I wanted to hate them for it! Soon after I discovered the rumors about Generals Handbook, and not a day later, my old friend was texting me about the same, like "have you seen this? You wanted points back right? We are all super exited.. yada yada yada". And I didn't want to care... really, I didn't... but now I'm sitting at my desk painting my first Orruks... Fuck you GW!

>If allegiance Bonesplitterz i's an unrendable save 6 as well as a 6++ against mortal wounds, though.
It's still a 6+. i mean, fluffy and cool, but really unreliable and almost useless.

for just 2 single orcs? I mean, an old single box of bonesplittaz is like 20 bucks and you get 16 orcs +2 big stabbas.

>>48295701
You're right, I shouldn't be so harsh on GW - it's nice that they're supporting and updating their legacy ranges with stuff like this. I just hope we see some new gitmob soon.

>>48295735
i have the same "problem"-plus, my orcs are all dedicated and heavily converted to Nurgle so now i have to buy another box for 2 fucking orcs and a bonestabba.
Oh well, an wbtire unit of bonestabbas looks so comicly badass its almost arousing.

>>48295642
Yeah, I hated AoS, but somehow it just won me over in the last couple of months. It's also not like I need to buy GW minis to play it.

>>48295793
I don't give a fuck about "mini correctness", and it's served me well. The sheer variety of units in the game means that subbing in "counts as" off-brand minis is pretty easy. Dwarfs in powered armor, for example, can be run using stormcast rules. Some of the hardcore GW crowd I play with don't like it, but I think a bit of mix-and-match and conversion is a huge part of the hobby! (Base sizes no longer mattering also makes off brand substitutions a million times more convenient)

This actually feels pretty ok.

This isn't true for me though. A part of me always missed fantasy, and I (a guy who was in on the WoW early Alpha) never had a problem with their new "cartoonish" look. In fact, I loved it. In my mind I always thought to myself "hey... if I didn't hate this game, and if I could play that model in a videogame, I would be FREAKING AWESOME!".

So yea, the models did a lot for this game to impress me. Further, I was pleasantly surprised that my vacation of various other games had left me a increase in quality when I purchased my first AoS models.
I'm also under the belief that a hobby is a luxury, meaning its not a necessity of life. Thus it should cost what the customer is willing to pay. And growing up during the "buy a little every month" era, I am accustom to not wanting 400 models in one batch, but rather spread my expenses with the simple use of a budget. And thus I also have time to paint my miniatures to the standard of my liking.

>>48295897
Yeah, I have always been a huge fan of proxy minis and I'm currently building Empire/Free Guilders out of historical minis and old 5'th-6'th edition minis that better match the historical scale.

>>48296258
Yeah, I miss the old setting too, but to me the WHFB setting had just been spinning its tires in the mud for at least a decade. It just felt too conservative after the Storm of Chaos thing and the fluff just felt less inspired over the years. So I was falling out with it anyway. The End Times also left a bad taste in my mouth as well and it has tainted my enjoyment of the setting.

As for the minis I'm a big fan or realistic and thoughtful design when it comes to wargear, so most of the Age of Sigmar minis don't appeal to me. However, the Sylvaneth is a bunch of cool tree people, so I don't have a problem with the way they look and I'm really getting into the mood of buying some later this autumn.

Well, theres another thing about miniatures. It seems GW is now really pushing to make each and every team stand out (of new AoS releases that is). No more "average" down the line miniature that could be just about any type of elves, or any type of dwarf, or any type of human and so on.
They have a specific theme, like it or not (i kind of do, sort of what they gave HOMM in later days, for those of you familiar with that cpu game).

Don't get me wrong, I like the "mordheim era" of miniatures as well, and find great pleasure in taking inspiration from original sketches of blanche from time to time, when the setting is right. And for me, that setting just isn't right in AoS, its for a new audience, a new era so to speak. I run my grim-dark models when I play Mordheim, because frankly, thats where they truly fit!

So what are the best allegiance command traits and artefacts for death?
I'm guessing ruler of the night & maybe red fury command traits, artefacts maybe cursed book, tomb blade and immortal ring?

Good lord what region is this in

So my brother found an old ogre battalion box, and he's been thinking of doing ogors for the low model count. It includes:

6 ogors
4 leadbelchers
6 ironguts

He consulted me about it and I figured it will make the perfect starter. He just has to make one of the leadbelchers into a tyrant (or I would advise making the 4th leadbelcher into an irongut and the extra irongut into a tyrant) using spare bits and some creative greenstuffing to make him imposing, and he has exactly 1000 points.

And the leadbelchers are battleline because he's keeping with the gutbusters.

The box is about $105, but he wont need to buy anything more to play games. So it's pretty exciting.

He will need some 40mm rounds though, but we can get those from a few cheap sources so no big deal there.

Some people may already know my list, I'm currently buying and painting it slowly. Need some help/advices though.

This is my 1.5k list (playing with 2+ battleline with my friend)

Heroes
Herald of Tzeentch on Foot 120
Lord on Daemonic Mount 140
Bloab Rotspawned 260
Bloodstoker 80

Battleline
Horrors of Tzeentch 140
Horrors of Tzeentch 140

Misc
Burning chariot 160
Burning chariot 160
Gorebeast chariot X3 300

What battleline / units would you add for a solid 2k army? I'm thinking mighty Skullcrushers, but dunno if I want more horrors. Stuff that synergies with my list is things that can wound in multi phases and fast stuff. Was thinking Daemonettes but they are expensive for a good solid unit and also don't really wound in multi phases.

>>48297228
Mournghuls are FW - FW points will be provided separate

>>48297408

Alright, cool. Any guess at how much they will be? Some people at the shop guessed around 350-90.

Also, are there any rumors that the Night haunt list will be expanded?

>>48297784


>equal to a drakesworn Templar

Easily

>>48297883
Put the Ghoul King on the terrorgiest. The d3 regen and unique spell is pretty nice.

Consider mashing those units of Ghouls together so you can have a 30 and 20 unit in the Abattoir formation.

I'm not sure how I feel about the dire wolves. That could be a second Crypt Haunter or second Ghoul King/Terrorgeist king upgrade.

Consider combining the two Crypt Horror units into one.

>>48297962
My problem is meeting battleline requirements, so I need three units of ghouls basically. I also can only have max 6 heroes. The spell for ghoul king on terrorgheist seems a bit redundant considering I get the same ability for my allegiance bonus, but I'll consider putting him on there and giving him red fury command trait I guess

>>48297962
also not sure if you're thinking of a different formation, but abattoir requires two crypt horror units and only has one crypt ghoul unit

>>48296905
Uk isn't part of the Euro city.

Europe has it's own, UK+Rest of the world, and US/Canada.

>>48298163
You can double his spell AND your allegiance ability, which is why its so good.

And consider taking a single pack on zombies instead of a dire wolf squad. With the ghoul put on the terrorgeist, you should be good to go.

Also, with the way its worded, you may be able to model a Vampire Lord to ride on a mount and have wings at the same time. Just something to consider if you want to squeeze as much power as you can.

>>48298931
Wait, so for every wound I get to roll twice to see if its negated if I have battle trait + spell off?

>And thanquol and archaon were stupidly grim dark, past the point of sense

It was the end of the world, what did you expect?

>>48296824
That's pretty good, I hadn't thought about that

How many points would the start collecting Khorne daemons box come out to if I converted the herald on foot and built the skull cannon?

>>48299414
520 if you ran the herald aas bloodmaster. There aren't generic heralds for some reason

>>48299489
Bloodmasters and Skullmasters are heralds, just new names. They're not unique or named characters or anything, just rebranding.

>>48299489
It's also worth noting that the SC box may not give you enough battleline grunts since the bloodcrushers aren't battleline unless your general is skullmaster

>>48299414
100 points of Bloodletters
180 points for the cannon
160 for the Blood Crushers
A Bloodmaster is 80

I think the herald on foot sucks. Put the bloodthrone big demon head on one of the crushers, and call it a skull master (100pts), way better. You're short one crusher, but they're like 20 bucks for a single model on ebay. If you don't wanna go that route, I tried basing the bloodthrone guy on foot, and his stance is hella weird.

>>48299509
I play destruction so I wouldn't know. I just have the PDFs of all the points for all units and figured I may as well help out

>>48299559
Convert it so it's surfing a tidal wave of gore

>>48299559

>>48300110
depends on the wording. what command ability are you referring to?

>>48300218

The command abilities in the Bloodthirster types.

Should I get a stegadon or a bastiladon? I was told the only good one is the bassie.

They're Slaves to Darkness, which lets you give them the KHORNE keyword, so it goes perfectly with your allegiance if it's called KHORNE DAEMON instead of DAEMONS OF KHORNE (due to the latter being a faction, not just a couple of keywords). Like how you can mix Slaves to Darkness and Bloodbound because they're both KHORNE MORTAL.

I just looked at the GW webstore and the DP was nowhere to be found among the factions. Weird. It can still be made a Khorne Daemon though, so try that out if it works.

>when my opponent gets salty because I put Mystic Shield on a Bloodthirster

>>48301488
DP is int he "Daemons of chaos" faction
OR AT LEAST IT USED TO BE. I JUST CHECKED AND YOU CAN ONLY FIND IT UNDER "ALL CHAOS" NOW. PROBABLY CAUSE THEY'RE PLANNING ON MAKING IT SO IT DOESN'T BREAK ALIGNMENT WITH SOME SHIT?

Silver tower units are going to have there point right? Because I just bought a bunch of tzeetch stuff form it

>>48301657
The keyword filtering on the store has a few bugs. The Vampire Lord on Zombie Dragon shows up under Flesh-Eater Courts instead of soulblight for example.

>>48301886
yeah, points for those come out same day as general's handbook street date

>>48301917
's cause the zambambo dreggen is a flesh eater model

>>48301954
He should still show up under soulblight since that's what the Lord is. They managed that for the Sorceress/Dreadlord on Black dragon even though those are from the same kit too.

>>48302047
He did until the flesh eater update.

blessed leak-anon, thx!--could you plz also post;
Savage Big Boss
Wurrgog Prophet (Wurrzag??)

& maybe some of the Warclan Formations, or even summarize them, if that's easier??

Any bets on what's in their new Start Collecting box/bundle? Guessing 1 box of Savage Boar Boys, Savage Orruk Warboss, Savage Orruks,* & maybe an extra Big Stabba sprue??

Too bad there's no Savage Orruk Warboss on Wyvern, it's either keep the B.S. Allegiance to get either Boarboys as battleline, or go looking for a better Command Ability, assuming theirs is still underwhelming.

Bonesplittas def. fit their fluff as a Monster/Behemoth-hunting horde I must say . . .

*re-equip these guys with stickas/spears so you can fight in 2 ranks, since you're now wounding on 4's instead of 3's, compared to losing the Rend -1???

my bad, it's kinda weird that the Savage Orc Warboss isn't getting an updated Warscroll, but at least the Wurrgog Prophet got;
+1 to Save & +1 Wound, instead of the default 6++
+2 Bravery
traded Baleful Mask ranged attacks for a -1 to Hit him in combat
gained crummy dagger & squig attacks, & Rend -1 on his staff attacks
traded his polymorph spell for variant Fist of Gork that works best on larger units (MW's on 6+/model)
Cmd. Ability that lets a B.S. unit w/in 15" pile-in & attack during the Hero Phase

I'm curious what their Traits & Artefacts will be . . .

We know the traits already, reposting:

Allegiance bonus for Bonesplitterz
>Warpaint
Save rolls of 6 (before any modifiers) are always successful, regardless of other special rules. In addition, if you suffer a mortal wound, roll a d6. On a 6+ you can ignore the mortal wound.
>Monster Hunter
After killing a Monster in melee, the responsible unit does not have to take battleshock tests until your next hero phase. In addition, roll a d6 for every unit before piling in if there's a Monster within 3" of that unit. Consult the following chart:
1-2 The unit can pile in up to 6".
3-4 The unit can reroll failed to wound rolls when attacking Monsters.
5-6 Each wound roll of 6 causes a Mortal Wound in addition to all other damage when attacking a Monster.

General Traits for Bonesplitterz
>Weird Warpaint
The general ignores mortal wounds on a 4+
>Prophet of Waagh
all Bonesplitterz can reroll failed battleshock tests
>Big Hunter
If the general kills a Monster he can immideatly pile in and attack again
>Killa Instincts
Your general's wound rollls of 6 give the weapon Rend -3.
>Waagh Hero
Bonesplitterz within 10" add +1 to their charge rolls.
>Monstrosity
The general may pick his results on the Monster Hunter chart.

He might get one in the battletome. The Treeman Ancient also got a different warscroll but they still have the old one on the store page.

>>48300993
The skin is good, the armor is fucking awful. I really din't dog the clean orruk look at all. The same with the guy who working on the waaagh boss with the skull on the shoulder. He has mad skills, but the model is just so bland.
I feel like you either glue some more details on it or go wild with freehands. Same with the Sigmarines.

Nobody likes age of sigmar so getting some models on ebay could be a pretty cheap way to get into the game. These new rules for points, are batallions not mentioned in the book not allowed?
Also you can mix whatever you just don't get the "allegiance bonus" right?
Are there any "specific" allegiances yet or is that a feature that might come out later?

And which city you want to destroy the most, Chaos,death, and destructionfags.

>>48303052
>These new rules for points, are batallions not mentioned in the book not allowed?
For matched play, yes.
>Also you can mix whatever you just don't get the "allegiance bonus" right?
For matched play, you must stay within the grand alliance. In open play you can still mix and match whatever you want.
>Are there any "specific" allegiances yet or is that a feature that might come out later?
Theyre coming out with new battletomes starting with sylvaneth. No word on the allegiance bonuses for previous battletomes.

>>48303052
>These new rules for points, are batallions not mentioned in the book not allowed?
If it currently doesn't have points than it's currently not legal to field in a pitched battle. Maybe they get points at a later point but right now you obviously can't field what has no point cost.

>Also you can mix whatever you just don't get the "allegiance bonus" right?
No. Everything in your army MUST share one grand alliance keyword. So all order, all chaos, all death or all destrucion. No mixing of Goblins and Skeletons.

>Are there any "specific" allegiances yet or is that a feature that might come out later?
The Sylvaneth got a specific allegiance in their battletome, so will the Bonesplitterz in theirs and likely every future battletome release as well. No info on older factions that already have battletomes or might never get ones.

Only the batallions mentioned, the others are historical batallions meant for campaigns.
You can freely mix within your Grand Alliance.
Sylvaneth and Bonesplitterz are right now the only allegiances with extra rules if that's what you're talking about.

>>48303154
allegiance rules are also for all game types/modes. Also for mixed battalions (like the protectors of alariel) they all have the keyword of the battalion (so sylvaneth stormcast from that battalion.)

So technically the page says you can enter the results of a battle of any size.

You could get another Chaos-bro and cheese it by just playing a dozen games of 1 squad vs 1 squad.

>>48302839
Many thanks, German anon, question;
from the wording of it--"in addition..."--does a unit need to kill a Monster first in order to a gain a Monster Hunter bonus??

Does anyone else think it's kinda funny that due to a loss Rampaging Destroyers battle trait, that the loincloth & boned Orruks would be slower than the heavily-armored Ironjawz??

The magical Ju-ju Warpaint was organic to their wascrolls before, & now it just replaces the ever-handy Destruction battle trait, aside from their 6+ Save being non-Rendable now (whoopty-do!) The Allegiance bonus should push the default 6++ to a 5++ instead!

& finally, which Command/General trait jumps out at you guys?

-Weird Warpaint: ignoring Mortal Wounds on a 4+ instead of a 6+ is nice, assuming you don't take whatever Warclan Formation that improves it to a 5+.
-Prophet of Waagh-rerolling failed battleshocks sounds nice still, even w/ everyone getting another Wound.
-Big Hunter: what are the odds your Sav. Warboss/Wurrgog Prophet kills a Monster this game, AND has another enemy he can pile-into & attack???
-Killa Instincts: could be fun if your General's to Wound rolls of 6 do Rend -3 (especially dual choppas on Warboss)
-Waagh Hero: +1 to charge for units w/in 10" could help you get Turn 1 charges, & then use Wurrgog's Command Ability at the top of Turn 2
-Monstrosity: your General may pick his results on the Monster Hunter chart, only impresses me if you DON'T need to kill a Monster 1st . . .

Also, the offical app. has been updated w/ the new warscrolls!

As Order player myself I find this to be absolutely boring.

"Summer campaign started and Order held the cities for one month!" Doesn't make for a very interesting result. Seriously thinking about starting a Chaos army just to help leveling the playingfield a bit.

>>48303083
>>48303091
Might pick up a start collecting box and a few other models cheap then i guess. 1000 point games should be pretty common right?
Neferata 440
5 Black Knights 120
10 Skeletons 80
Thats 640 out of a "Start collecting skeleton hordes" box and i should also grab a cheap vampire lord or two for either fun times or to fill neferata's fancy ability.

My choices for battleline seem pretty limited unless i just take neffy + some morghasts (who aren't all that cheap) so what's the best to do? Just grab another ten skeletons and use them to fulfill the "battleline" requirement or should i take them seriously?

>>48303275
The battleshock immunity for killing a monster and the monster hunter bonus are not tied together. You get the Monster Hunter bonus even if no monster had been killed before.

>>48303320
Go destruction. That way you can shit on both order AND chaos
Death's also an option, but this is the fight for the realm of LIFE so...

>>48303346
Probably shoulda listed that bit firsst to avoid confusion
Though thy MAY have done that in the english version. We don't know since that one's in german

>>48303337
Fill your Black Knights up to 10(Or make the better Hexwraith from the kit) and get more Skeletons. You want to get a good mass of those (or zombies) as Battleline, especially if you plan on going up to 2000 at some point in time. Spirit Hosts, Necromancer and Terrorgheist are also very solid additions to any Death force.

>>48303357
It's actually really clear on the german bit that the bonus for slaying a monster and the monster hunter bonus are in no way connected. It's just that the anon from whom I copied >>48302839 worded it in a way that makes it sound like they are connected.

Which page in general's handbook explain about reinforcement/summoning?

>>48303368
Necromancers are kinda the big thing with death no? Since they're wizards and death can summon their entire army?

>>48303375
So it's exactly as I thought then. Good to hear

>>48303380
With the General's Handbook summoning got a lot weaker. Basically it works more or less as deepstriking now, with you having to buy whatever you want to summon beforehand. What makes them so good is that they can let your undead units activate twice during close combat.

>>48303234
>The fluff says dryads are essentially civilians and also lived in cities in the past.
Citys are a nice place to visit but they don't want to be unable to leave, mummy just made sure that someone would be talking care of the upkeep.

>>48303380
Summoning is no longer free and you must account for the summons you plan on performing before you start a game, if that was what you were thinking.

so if you plan on summing a unit of 10 skeleton warriors, you need to include their points cost as part of your points total for your army.

>As Order player myself I find this to be absolutely boring.
I'm not arguing against that

I believe in the future we may see further divisions of alliances with skaven becoming independent and the elves (tyrion and malerion's mostly) detaching from order to balance things out.


Or they may use this first campaign to gather data to put a points system in successive ones
>order is the most popular: Each victory is 1 point
>death has few numbers: Each victory counts more

>>48303368
You know it is intensely unhelpful that the malignants box comes with its main attraction as a coven throne/mortis engine and NEITHER work for a nighthaunts allegiance army.
