So, let's talk about the new stuff a little. Because while the new Tzaangors have a nasty potential the pricetag seems kinda high.
How would you guys use these? Blobs of 20 seem solid.

Guided by the Past is an amazing piece of psychological warfare, but I don't think a Tzaangor Shaman really wants to follow them into melee, even with Infusion Arcanum.
They cost quite a lot and are fragile as fuck, but they pack a lot of punch and are speedy little shits.

Looking good.
Do you only get the Beak and Talon attacks when you pick Staff of Tzeentch?

What's best minimum investment battleline for a general Destruction army? Ogors? Is a ten man unit of savage orruks or twenty man unit of moonclan worth it?

I really wish 'ardboyz were general battleline.

You always have a staff, and should choose one extra weapon from either talons, sword or rod.

Pricey for ten marauder-tier fuckers. They are pretty decent, but the cost is rather high. Not entirely convinced.
>>
>>51203250
Same rules as the Sorc Lord of Tzeentch, yeah. He's 120pts and counts as a Leader.

>>51203286
Considering their weapon ranges, probably not.
>>
Even as a Khorne fanboi this Tzeentch release is tempting. If that's the new standard I can't fucking wait for Slaanesh and the Shadow Aelfs.
>>
>>51203288
Theyre like Marauders but better. If they didnt have a shooting attack they would be 120 points for 10.

140 is actually a fair cost

Can I have a Chaos Sorcerer Lord with the Mark of Tzeentch in this army? I heard Slaves to Darkness models aligned to Tzeentch are good to go?

Yeah, think you're right. If they could take spears like their Enlightened Brethren, maybe, but as is, don't think it works.

I'm thinking I'm going to repurpose my Roman Khorne idea to instead make Roman Tzeentch. Like a Tzeentch-worshiping Republic with a convoluted political system of voting that is all about intrigue and also highly religious and trapped up in ritual and rites. Mix some 28mm Roman miniature parts with the others.
>>
>>51203545
Yes, so? Spireguard has a similar ranged attack (bar 2" range), +1" melee range, better Save, way better Bravery, a arguably better shield, rerollable run and charge distances, Battleshock resistance, a size bonus and a smaller footprint. They cost 120pts and are generally considered slightly overcosted.

I wouldn't worry too much about points costs right now. GHB 2.0 is coming and I'm sure they got a lot of feedback already. GW is as new to the game as we are but with more time comes more experience.
I'd be completely fine with them updating rules/pts every year or so to adjust/buff/nerf stuff.

>>51203673
...I really do not understand this statement at all, in this context.

>>51203750
To be fair, I've always been a Tzeentch person. Khorne is the second favorite, but Tzeentch wasn't good at the time, and certain things got in the way of me starting the Khorne army when I was going to.

>>51203735
Tzeentch armies will probably always be character-heavy; it's in their very nature, so that's fine.
I am unconvinced by the Enlightened. They are a huge gamble. If the opponent activates in their vicinity, so you'd get Guided by the Past, chances are they will be stomped into the dirt in a hurry. And if the enemy doesn't, their melee is kinda lacking.
I'd probably ditch at least one squad in favor of adding another ten guys to the Acolythes and using the last 100 pts for some shenanigans.
>>
>>51203879
I feel they could work with the archers. If they both charge a unit either way the opponent is screwed.

What about ironfist?
>>
>>51204062
it depends. in some armies like Freeguild, the buffs are really strong and you can tend to take more battleline, it can be also the case in armies where battleline that grow in numbers win GREAT advantages (look up the handgunner and freeguild guard to see what i mean)

Battleline are crucial for some scenario, ut 860 points is a little much, especially sonce you could fit some summoning easily in a tzeentch army.
I may be wrong because the book isnt out yet that why i said "looks like" but looking at the list I would add something like a burning chariot or something.

Rate my lore, duders.

>Free Kingdom of Cascadin
A mountainous and forested kingdom that is less a grand fief and more a collection of villages focusing around a few larger cities and the King's capital. Thus far the royal family has been harsh in justice, but fair and kind otherwise; their subjects are more a collection of allied tribes who refuse to leave each other hanging in times of need.

The mountains of Cascadin are rich in iron, timber, and the materials for black powder. An artistic but martial culture, everyone grows up with song, painting, firearms, and some knife- and axe-focused survival techniques, allowing for an effective tribal militia of gunners and skirmishers in every village. The cities house the few Regular units of gunners, guard, artillery, and dragoons.

The recent arrival of the Slann Kehr'met on the Kingdom's highest peak has given King Loved By Hawk some pause. The Slann has yet to show any desire to harm his subjects--in fact, he helped with a short-lived famine, and offers Cascadin protection from invading forces--and his request for the mountain-top is fair enough for the good luck the superstitious Cascadin natives consider him.

>Starhost of Kehr'met the Younger
One of the youngest Slann to survive the End Times, Kehr'met decided that in order to center himself and find where he best fits into the Great Plan, he needs must start small. In this regard, he has a great respect for the tribesmen of the Sedor Mountains; and little do they know they sit upon a Realmgates crossroad; Kehr'met takes it upon himself to guard this crossroad as best he can. As such, his role as Cascadin's protector is something he takes quite seriously; the beginnings of his dedication to Order.

My Slann lore is thin, but my two favorite factions are Empire/Free Peoples and Lizardmen/Seraphon units; I always thought they were neat. The FP are my main force, while Kehr'met comes out for the huge games or games where Realmgates are the focus.

What? It's a partnership, mang. Kehr'met doesn't involve himself in their politics in any way. They traded him a mountain-top after he helped with a famine, cos fuck it, no one's using the land.

The only nice thing is the 18" range for the acolytes. I sort of agree about the Gorebeast Chariots, though they could be nasty cleanup. I'm not sure what battle lines to take. Perhaps 2x Tzaangors 1x Kairic is the way to go. Alternately, Pink Horrors might end up being useful with the new Tzeentch spells. Chaos Warriors I suspect are too expensive and slow

>>
>>51205306
- Daemons don't need that, and I say that as a Tzeentch player
- Okay, but how to deal with shit like seraphon then?
- Sensible, there are some things that need adjusting.
I'd love to see a lessening of the summoning restrictions, but that's not gonna happen, or at least I can't see how without opening the floodgates for all kinds of bullshit. Same goes for the 'each spell only once a turn' thing.
More realistically, some more battlelines for various sub-factions would be neat, e.g. Dracothian Guard for Chamber Extremis or Gargants for Aleguzzler Gargants.
>>
>>51205306
- some point adjustments here and there
- rebalanced relics and traits
- spells and arcane artefacts for all Grand Alliances

You can mix, just need to mix in some gobbos as battleline as well.
- Don't need a new book for a discount on anything. And the mawcusha boss is well-costed. Gordrakk probably could do with a 100pts discount though.
- 'ardboys are battleline.
- The shaman already has two unique spells, that's plenty.

Do you prefer AoS to 40k? If so, why? If not, why not?

For me, the gameplay is just much smoother and I like how Stormcasts are huge, sort of how people model true scale Space Marines.
I also really like how war scrolls eliminate the need to constantly refer back to a codex or rulebook.

I really like battleshock and mortal wounds as game mechanics. 40k could learn from mortal wounds instead of having AP values.
There also don't appear to be any "overpowered" units or armies, everything can be countered.

>>51206848
if you are poor add 2x5 chaosknight (its like 32€ for a box of 10 online) and any leader and you have 1k points
>>
>>51206891
I like the fact that GW had slime down the rules. Sometimes they look too simply but AoS is not the same type of game as 40k so it's hard to rate them. It's like asking which mean of transport is better - bike or aircraft carrier? But I'm prefering AoS - maybe 8e will make 40k more newbie friendly, dynamic and logistically friendly

No, give gore gruntas 28" move and 8d6 mortal wound for each inch they moved in this turn.


Megaboss on MawCrusha rebalanced at 50 points for a squad of 5 and and you get 10 squads of arboys per 100 points of your army for free.


Arboys are also now sorcerer and each model as acces to every spell in the game and override the rules of "A spell can only be cast once per turn"

Each time any Ironjaws model dies it spawn 23 Behemot squigs and 12 Magma dragons, and the spore from killing each models inflict 100d6 mortal wound on every enemy model on the table.
Each model killed this way also become Bonegrinder Giant part of the Ironjaws army

I'm just a fan of Morathi, she pretty much was the main villain in the old Warhammer, the Sundering, War of the Beard, Nagash, all because of her. Then Khaine stuff during The End Times. And she's still around. I want her.

I kinda regret selling my all Dark Elves around.... what was it called? Storm of Magic? Happened during 7th edition IIRC, there were those fancy magic pillars released, also plastic Sorceress, Black Dragon, Chaos Manticore and something....

In Death I just like few stuff. Arkhan (I really like this character), Coven Throne (always loved the model) and some skellies, grave guard and black knights. Also that Krell model, however he's called now, Wight Lord or something.
>>
I've been thinking. Do Chaos non-Slaaneshi devotees still practice sex for reprouction? Or do they just focus on converts to maintain their society in order to avoid dipping into a realm outside of their deity?

Then again, I suppose it would be somewhat equal to the bloodshed carried out by non-Khornates. It's done because it has to be, even if it's not ideal.

These are perfect for escorting a Thaumaturge into melee. The Ogroid can lob fireballs over their heads while being protected from melee threads until he is where he wants to be. Meanwhile the Tzaangors benefit from his presence through Anarchy & Mayhem.

You can still use it without any reserves, as the spell says you *can* set up a unit, not that you have to. And, honestly, without the summoning the spell is just a variant of Arcane Bolt, trading ease of casting for more oomph.

.... you...you don't actually play do you?
Ironjaws have zero ranged, and next to no wizards, and only two units that can do mortal wounds.
In what world is that on Beastclaw, or arrow boy, or any other magic heavy army. Ironjaws hit like a truck, but can't take damage, especially on brutes, your premier damage unit, as we have shit bravery. All of our bluffs don't even last the full turn- they stop after our combat phase.
Ironjaws are a one trick pony. It works the first time against someone new, but the counters are fucking obvious after you see it once.
>>
>>51209939
I played more tournament that you played games faggot, you obviously dont know how to play the game or the fluff if you ask for.

Painting SoD Nurgle would be a lot of fun.

Please forgive me if my questions would be obvious or naive for you but I'm a greenhorn.
The mainly playing format at my LGS is 1000pts vanguard so will be my list. I want to keep it as cheap as possible - don't want to play competitively, just "advanced" casual so my budget is something like ~two and a half of SC boxes.

I wanted to smuggle a Rotbringers Sorcerer and Lord of Plagues (both are cheap by cash and pts and look great) on the list but only the first one has partial synergy with daemons units as a chaos wizard. Sadly, both are not triggering any "Daemon Hero of Nurgle" abilities of daemons. So basically, I have to choose between Daemons or Mortlas to run something viable, yup? That's why I asked about mixing boxes - I'm not sure if running mixed army is a good idea for a newbie like me
>>
Seems like quite a few leaks are out now. Not sure if anyone has anything on this yet, but is there an in-lore justification for Vilitch's model getting turned into a generic "Curseling" character, like maybe a reference to Vilitch being the first of his kind? Or is it just another forced retcon to try and fit an old WHFB model into AoSverse?

literraly ascended from low tier god to stronger than slaanesh.
i hope slaanesh just die and GW write the horned rat as one of the big 4.
slaanesh is so unidimensional... "wow much dickboobs muh pleasure wow lol sexslaves much"

>inb4 it's actually the master of art etc.

then why all deamon end up latexfetish tier from the 80's ?
>>
>>51213100
Thank you. My idea may still work.
>>
>>51213255
My thing is, if slaanesh comes back into play, how would it be a viable player? The way they portray the mortal realms, anyone not in the fold of the big boys gets steamrolled, who has time to drive themselves to high levels of excess or dedication to a single thing to catch Slaanesh's attention?
>>
What do you guys do to help keep you entertained while building/painting? Binging shows/movies, audiobooks, podcasts, etc?

I tend to binge comedies and sci-fi. Burned through all of How I Met Your Mother and Scrubs twice, most of Farscape, Deep Space Nine, a few Jim Carrey movies, and some of pic related on past projects.

Currently going through MST3K again in a more dedicated fashion. God, I love this show.
>>
>>51213536
Audiobooks, or i have battle reports playing in the background to keep me in the build/paint mood.
>>
>>51213494
no one. slaanesh makes no fucking sensr in fantasy honestly, most people are too worry to know if they will be able to eat in the winter to loose time painting and go full murderporn allday for millenia.
Even if it exist it should be a very minor nuisance, not something of the scale of the other 3 chaos gods.

the whole death faction is wasted for rhe chaos gods since they dont frel anything and slaanesh cant get anything from more than half the order factions, and little to nothing from destruction..

What do you guys' think about GF's sylvaneth theme? Did I do good?
>>
>>51212864

Nice. Though, I think I may grab a box of Fyreslayers instead lol. I forgot I used to be really into dorf slayers back in the day. Do they come in tiny packs or do I need to get a full box?

And yeah, I plan on using the Freeguild more defensively with a gunline and spears and the slayers to just mow through things alongside state swordsmen, reiters and knights while the wizard picks things off from afar.
>>
>>51213736
Icewood? thats looks really neat!

Yeah, they will probably just add Slaanesh to the list of "shit the good guys gotta deal with." But itd be interesting to see them try to come up with a good reason to keep it around.

>slaanesh is so unidimensional... "wow much dickboobs muh pleasure wow lol sexslaves much
You could use the same argument for scrapping Khorne. He's basically "Bloodsecrator Goreblood "Skullblood" Bloodgore loves reaping gory, bloody skulls for the Blood God! Blood for the Blood God!", plus generic red, horned demon dudes.

>then why all deamon end up latexfetish tier from the 80's ?
Because even GW falls victim to uncreative writing and Flanderisation. Same with Khorne, GW always forgets about his history as a god of martial pride and honour (with the single, ironic-as-fuck exception of Kharn the Betrayer, at least in recent Black Library stuff).
>>
>>51202672

What is the average size for a playable army?

Like can I just get a troop, elite and an HQ and go to town or do I need like 3 troops and 2 elites and 1 HQ
>>
>>51207322
I don't know what I think of this, compared with the original. The robe's a bit more ornamental, but it looks a bit flimsy compared with his previous version. Continuing GW's recent trend of releasing plastic kits that will probably need to be repaired a year after you buy them, although it doesn't look quite as fragile as Celestine.

>>51211980
Hah, I never noticed that, but now that you mention it...
Certainly fits with Dark Angels being Chaos Marines and all.

>>51214095
The only way I can see Slaanesh work, is to be like the tyranids. Seed some agents into the desired settlement, when shit gets tough, your cults break out, whole sale converting happens, then you have an empty settlement and they are either absorbed by slaanesh to help regain power, or are turned into daemons to fight and repeat the process. But I can honestly see Slaanesh be more concerned with fighting the other Chaos Gods to restore its spot in the Chaos Realm. Skaven could see Slaanesh as an obstacle as it could offer to the less fortunate members a life not burdened by constant backstabbing and torture/death.

Sure, but you never mentioned that kind of mass appeal being a factor.

>not much people are into millenium of murderporn
Most people aren't into anything in its most extreme form. Everyone has their vices though, even if they repress them. Overeating, compulsive sex, sexual fetishes and paraphilias, gambling, getting drunk/high... Those are the things that would constitute the bulk of Slaanesh's power source, not the extreme torture/mass-rape/whatever of his/her/its/xir's most dedicated followers.

It's the same with Khorne. He's probably going to be getting more juice from domestic abuse and schoolyard punch-ups than from his dedicated berserkers' campaigns of mass-genocide and daily beheading rituals, but the latter is considered more representative of him because it's his essence in its most concentrated form. You can extend the same to Tzeentch and Nurgle too.
>>
>>51213050
Its just the idiot who is trying to make the fact that handgunners to wound is netter than fireglaives mean something. Ignoring that isn't what mechanism means.
>>
>>51214369
Be real here. Anon made suggestions on what Ironjawz could use. No ranged, no casters, their cav have a stupid requirement on their charge that there can be no enemy units within 8" to get the d3 attacks on the charge nearly all cav don't have this stipulation, and no real mortal wound generation outside of a charge mechanic and a caster who has abilities that will rarely go off.

But how was this responded with? Autistic levels of screaming about nothing the original poster mentioned. Then made some claim of playing Ironjawz and Gigantic Squigs to which I asked what the list was. Did he take 2-3 units of grots or orruks or savage orruks to fulfill the battleline. Cause if you talk shit about someone's suggestions fucking back that shit up and don't just resort to insults like some sort of raging autist.
>>
Wait, can I take chaos barbarians in my freeguild, and say they were humans who had been tainted but now redeemed themselves? Or does it not work that way? I am hella new to the lore still. I am def warming up to the heavy metal noblebrightness of it

(if I can take the marauders what do I use them as in freeguild lol)
>>
>>51214642
The problem with that is as was stated before, there wont be synergy. Free guild will have stuff to better freeguild. Sure, you can absolutely make a fluffy army and do whatever you want, maybe treat them as flagellants? If you take however many barbarians as is, theyd just be a group of barbarians. Also, lore is open ended for you to do exactly what you are doing(there was a nurgle lord turned stormcast, so who is to say that maybe a chaos barbarian saw the light of sigmar and repented?), so there really isnt a bad way, just your way(which hopefully isnt a WAAC way).
>>
>>51214456
>getting drunk fuels Slaanesh

So basically, as long as the duardin exist, Slaanesh has a chance?
>>
>>51214642
You can mix everything within a grand alliance but not 2 grand alliance together in matched play.

you can do whatever you want in narrative and open play tho
>>
What should I be looking for when making a basic Tzeentch list with the new stuff coming out? Probably going to do a 500 point escalation league.
>>
>>51214604
Probably 3x10 savaj orruks like everyone fielding Destructions forces. I mean 300 points for 60wounds and the paints...
Monstrous arcanum + Ironfists look like the magic recipe from all around the world for destruction armies.

I rarely see Ironjaws allegiance army, or any battletomes armies in fact, but most of the time alliances within the big alliances.
Maybe GW want the game to be about allies like 40k is..

because NO bonus in any army is worth giving up sayl or a dreadmaw or an hurricanum..
(Nurgle players are the only ones fielding their army by itself, at least in my experience)

Rules likely wont be updated before the next edition of the battletome, points cost and battlelines will probably be updated in the much awaited GHB2 this year.
So wait and see I guess .
>>
>>51214837
we need the book to really know but i guess taking the minimum amount of the cheapest battleline and changeling + burning chariot will stomp faces at 500 points
>>
>>51214891
I mean it makes sense to do it that way. I agree with the anon who made the suggestions. I want to play pure Ironjawz as I own 3k worth of models, and I want them all in the same theme, but I get it.

I want to start the new Tzeentch Tzaangor stuff but ally with Slaanesh for Daemonettes and Lawnmowers, so I get the idea of each army not being entirely self-sufficient, unless of course you play Sylvaneth.

Oh man dreadmaw are retarded.
I faced ONE, ONE time. I deployed badly and the thing poped up first turn behind my shooters.
I basically surrendered turn 2 when i gave it everything I had and the fucker kept rolling 4+ on the invulnerable.
we both laughed hard then made another game without that I still lost.
Was fun once but I was really unprepared for this shit.
>>
>>51215180
Still i love to face anything from monsteous arcanum, really give the game another spin, and OMO especially with destruction, it fits the theme just perfectly.

I would live them to rerelease and point the marienburg boat.
It was shit in whfb because like most monster you cant go above 10-12 woulds and cannoncs were retarded, but in AoS it would be SO FUCKING NICE (yes i play free guild)

gonna make a placeholder for 1d4chan for diciples of tzeench tactics
since all of tzeench's daemons have been rolled in should I just change the name of the deamons of tzeench 1.1 page to diciples of tzeench 1.1 and add the new units or make an entirely new 1.2 page?

Really underwhelmed with leaked Tzeentch stuff so far. Skyfires look great, but everything else is squishy and hideously overpriced.
140 for acolytes with their bravery is awful, they wont's survive anything thrown at them.
I hope that there are some good formations and spells that we haven't seen, cause right now the book looks like it will be "Battletome: Skyfires" (given that they are costed adequately, otherwise it's "Battletome: Overcosted Shit").

I'm trying to decide what faction/alliance/whatever I'm going to play. Seeing all warscrolls in one place is much easier then saving all those warscrolls from the site and opening them all and.... I just want them in a single file. Or one file for each Grand Alliance for that matter.

>>51218571
Hrmm, not sure I'd agree.
Tzaangors and Enlightened seem reasonable for what they bring, as do most of the heroes bar Kairos, who needs a better profile rather than a lower pricetag.
Acolythes are way overcosted though. 100 for 10 would be fine.

I'm pretty sure that the blue tentacle is from the Chaos Spawn kit.
>>
>>51218873
Yes, there is. If you pick a faction you don't like the look of just because you "like the playstyle", you'll get tired of painting real damn quick. And then you'll be the piece of shit who shoves grey models over a table otherwise full of beautifully painted models.

If you already picked three or four you like the look of and then want to compare their playstyles and if you're too lazy to look at the pdfs from three factions, there's still 1d4chan, which gives you a generally decent idea what which army is about.
>>
>>51218970
In the original ebook Path to Glory, there's a Terrain Guide for "Blasted Wasteland". There they show you how to make this sort of terrain. In short, you stick a bunch of Chaos Spawn bits into a clump of Green Stuff and stick that onto some terrain, then paint it. That's what you're seeing there.
