So I'm trying to make an 1000pt Death list using only the Deathrattle allegiance, but that doesn't have to buy and paint loads of basic skeletons.

LEADERS
-Wight King: Baleful Tomb Blade, Master of the Black Arts, Sword of Unholy Power - 120
BATTLELINE
-10 Black Knights - 240
-10 Black Knights - 240
OTHER
-10 Grave Guard - 160
-Summoning Pool - 240pts

Total: 1000/1000

Plan is that the Wight King instantly summons two Morghasts so I can field an actually hard-hitting unit but keep the allegiance. He then wanders up with the Grave Guard while the Black Knights charge forward and tarpit whatever they can for the Morghasts to eventually swoop in and tip the scales. The king has sword and board rather than the axe purely because I like the model. I'll mostly be playing against Seraphon, Daemons of Khorne and Bretonnia; could this work as a more elite Skelly army or is it retarded?

I am thinking of rebasing the Dwarfs I have already to rounds. As much as I like squares, once the new Dwarfs come out they are just going to look odd on them, and I am thinking of rebasing them now while I only have a couple of units I need to change

TK arent being produced any more. Nobody knows why and nobody knows if they are coming back or not, but the TK have been mentioned in the fluff a few times (pic related)

Lizardmen are Order because they fight Chaos

Black Orcs are called Ardboys now

The space marine knockoffs are called Stormcast Eternals. They are human heroes reforged by the gods into elite paladin archetypes, created to rally the mortal races against the forces of chaos
>>
>>51413544
Yeah, but it doesn't seem like almost anything in the setting actually matters since everything seems to be infinite.

Warhammer was the same way.

There were infinite elves fighting infinite chaos, infinite forests full of infinite beastmen fighting infinite empire people which are being attacked by infinite skaven making infinite plagues, etc.

The only time any kind of real boundary got applied to the warhammer world was during the End Times
>>
>>51413522
>wtf is going on in the GW website

they updated it

>where are the tomb kings?

discontinued

>Why is everything divided into "grand alliances"?

Because the game is now organized by grand alliances

>Why are lizardmen in the order alliance?

Because they are not a chaos, death, or destruction force.

>Where are the black orcs?

Presumably somewhere in the destruction grand alliance

>What the fuck are these "not-space marines"?

>they are called sigmarines, actually scratch that, they are called stormcast eternals. Just think good guy necrons fighting for the god emperor with lightning magic.

there, you're all caught up.
>>
>>51413558
>Nobody knows why

90% of their model range was really old and dated. About the only plastic kits they had that didn't date back to 2006-ish were the big monsters. From a business perspective, the WHFB/AoS switchover gave GW the opportunity to cut out those older model ranges they couldn't or didn't intend to support any more, so sadly the TK's were axed. What surprised me was that the Necrosphinxes/Warsphinxes weren't retained and rolled into the broad 'Death' army, since they were quite nice models despite the aesthetic differences.

Morathi when?

>>51413608
Yeah, but the scale is infinite and infinite territory can exist. So it just seems to me that a destruction of a country doesn't mean anything in AoS. It's kinda like when you inflate and devalue a currency.
>>
>>51413632
Dryads and Saurus Warriors date back to 2002

Having old models is not a good enough reason to cut a line that got a ton of new sculpts just before the End Times
>>
>>51413632
>were the big monsters
tomb guard were the same release
>>
>>51413658
The warhammer world was essentially infinite, too. It had kingdoms with defined boundaries but the space between borders was purposefully left to be essentially infinite so they could have infinite forests with infinite beastmen and infinite skaven and so on

The point of the warhammer world setting was to create cool narratives for battles. 40k is the same way. AOS is the same way.
>>
>>51413663
The Dryads and Saurus both look pretty nice though. The problem with the TK plastics is that they infantry sprues were a slight tweak on the very first plastic skeletons, which I think date back to the 80's? When the TK's got their 6th edition army book, GW took the Vampire Count skellies and tacked some Egyptian-looking bling onto them.
>>
>>51413710
And what was wrong with the latest TK skeletons? They're way cooler than the VC shit
>>
>>51413695
I get what you're saying. It's just that the way that AoS does it doesn't fly for me. I'm really more annoyed by the naming conventions.
>>
>>51413737
Honestly I completely forgot that Tomb Guard got an update. They really should have been rolled into the new faction as well, even if they just acted as an alternate look for Grave Guard.

the thing with AoS, is that it's lacking personnality
there is no landpoints (safe for azyrheim), it's fucking minecraft : endless, but empty
in the world that be, there were territories, mountains, countries, places that matters
there was a lot of empty spaces as well, but you still got ulthuan, khemri, the north, etc ...
and it's the same with 40k. Just look at the peoples reaction to the fall of cadia
AoS needs places, and a real fucking map so i can know WHERE are my dudes

Jeremy glen is shit and the real detail are nowhere near this 3D render shit.

So just finished reading a little article on EN World about GW concluding negotiations regarding rights to make Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay 4th Edition. I'm confused, do you guys reckon it will be set in the Old World or will it be set in AOS. I don't really see how it would work in AOS, the dungeon crawling board games seem a much better fit.

I dislike 4chan's use of the term Grognard. It denotes veterans, yet I can guarantee that a lot if not most of the people complaining about AoS joined the hobby rather recently. I'm also certain that I've been in the hobby for longer than them, having started as soon as Games Workshop miniatures became available in my country, and none of the people in my social circle mind AoS. It's the fresh recruits who haven't yet lost passion for the Old World setting that are the most vocal in voicing their discontentment.

You don't like Slaanesh? I'm not a fan either.
We all here have a faction we can't stand, but we are all hobbists for fuck sake. Wishing for someone to lose their faction, with all money and time they invested, is something only the biggest cancerous faggots can do.

You are human waste, and you disgust me.

So, for the wellbeing of the entire hobby, sell your army, go away and never come back.

Probably not. There's been a push to flesh out the setting of AoS more, an RPG would drastically help with this. The only game I could still see set in the old world would be a mordheim relaunch, if that ever happens.

The colors look very flat, a wash or two, with some highlighting will go a long way. Brighten up the cloth and metal a bit, to help with contrast, everything looks washed out and brown now, except the skin. Look up a tutorial on how to do warpstone. Why is only one eye painted?

Metallics on the beastclaw could use more vibrancy, they look too brown right now. A drybrush will help with that. Some of the leather could also use a drybrush.

Ironjawz are budget-friendly and easy to build. Every unit they have is a battleline so it's basically "pick the iron fist battalion and heroes and go". Also Megaboss on Maw-krusha is amazing.

>why do sisters of slaughter have to be so much better, and witch elves look so much better >.>

I don't know about that... witch elves in the formation im running get at least three attacks each hitting on 3+ rerolling 1s to hit and doing mortal wounds on a 6+ rerolling 1s one unit gets to pile in and attack twice too. I had one unit of 10 witch elves do over 20 mortal wounds all on their own in one combat phase in the first game I played with the army.

Yep. Sadly witch elves aren't battleline when you include a unit of executioners like I do for the formation I run so I needed the 30 darkshards to round out the list. Theyre next up on the to do list and Ill get pics out of them as they progress.

I bought some Kairic Acolytes a few days ago and the Disciples of Tzeentch battletome. It's my first jump into AoS. Honestly wasn't a big fan of AoS (and I still hold on to old WHFB) but I'm slowly warming up to it as they release new factions. Just waiting to see the new elves now.

Since it's my only AoS army and I have only 1 unit so far I hope to paint my Disciples of Tzeentch as I go so I don't get caught in the trap 40K and WHFB had me in. I bought things faster than I could paint and I ended up amassing armies so big the thought of painting them was too intimidating.

This technique for the bases is very simple, but the maggots are a little more tedious.

>moist swamp of pure shit and cancer

It is autumn flocking (from a hobby store). Not the loose stuff you pour - sheets of it. I tore irregular shapes, glued them down with tacky glue, then soaked them in watered down PVA glue until I got shapes I liked. After it dried, I painted layers of Nurgles Rot in the deepest pits and edges. Then glossed it all.

Any guesses as to what stuff will be in the new stormcast battletome in terms of allegiance abilities, relics and traits?
I mean, I'm glad we can finally trade in the shitty Order trait, but the Order relics and command traits are pretty good overall, so the new stuff is looking at some stiff competition.

Also, with Prosecutors being a thing I cannot imagine what job the new light cavalry is meant to do.

Probably a armywide cost reduction, everything as now 5 Wounds base, hit and wound on 2+ army wide and doesn't care about minimal battleline nor leader.

bataillon that gives 2 free unit for each one you pay for, you can probably deepstrike where you want even moving your opponents models to make place for yours, and you get 10 free turn of shooting and combat before your opponent can act.

They may be few, but they sure as hell outweigh the weaknesses.

I mean what are you gonnna do against a list this big? How do you combat 360 grots on a table, each spaced out half an inch or so? You can't. You can't beat them. Kill 40 grots in one turn and you've still got 320 to go. 80 in a turn? 280 grots. Still a fuckload of grots. What's more is the fact they're all ranged. 8" and 4+ to hit. Assume you can't spill over into your opponents deployment zone it'll still take max 1 turn to get your front line of grots in range and start dishing out those delicious 6+ wound roles.

"few strengths"? Maybe. but fucking hell those strengths are enormous.

Uh-huh. That's very believable.
>>
>>51423934
those grots cant kill anything either.

Kroak can kill them in one turn, most of your packs will flee after a round of shooting so you effectively more realistically have 200 wounds and you dont have the speed to deny any points in most scenario so the opponent can just not care about killing your grots and still win.

But hey each thread we have some guy that argue that his new list he will never buy, let alone field, is unbeatable so believe what you want.

they dont need to kill anything. all you have to do is just outnumber your opponents' models around objectives. there are so many of them you can hold half the board in deployment alone. speed isn't needed when you're only 5" away from your objectives anyway, the exact move distance of a individual grot.

and fuck Kroak. people who play that shit are waacfags anyway.

Everything can literally kill everything else in this game.

How can Kroak kill them in one turn? Everyone keeps saying Kroak is this amazing mother fucker but in matched play he's very much neutered. He can only cast one celestial deliverance and one comets call and a bolt. Not very impressive.

except this isnt just any old "spam one unit and blah blah shitpost blah " list. this is a spam literally the most cost-efficient least-expensive horde unit list in AoS presently.

because i remind you all that gnoblar-grots have this one important very special rule where they d3 damage is dealt to units ending their charge move within 3" of a unit of grots on the roll of a 6. Essentially you just line you grots up in the manner of pic related (split up into units of 20 to maximise unit numbers). charge one unit of grots and the two on either side fuck you up, shooting at you all the while.

i'm stressing the strengths of this build because thats all it has. one huge fucking strength that blows every other list out of the water.

id like to see another horde army, or any sort of army, try and beat it.

I know this army has probably been talked about to death around here so I apologize for that.

I'm buying the Gorechosen box for the cheap heroes, two start collecting khorne bloodbound and some of the models from the age of sigmar starter box. So far I have this.

Aspiring Deathbringer - General, Lord of War, Crown of Conquest - 80
Exalted Deathbringer - Ruinous Axe & Skullgouger - 80
Skullgrinder - 80
Bloodsecrator - 120
Slaughterpriest - Hackblade and Wrath Hammer - 100
Slaughterpriest - Hackblade and Wrath Hammer - 100

Mighty Skullcrushers x6 - Bloodglaives, Standard, Horn - 320
Blood Warriors x10 - Goreaxes & Gorefists, Goreglaive x1 - 200
Blood Warriors x10 - Goreaxes & Gorefists, Goreglaive x1 - 200
Bloodreavers x40 - Meatripper Axes - 240

Total - 1520

I have 480 points remaining and not sure what to spend them on desu. Am I going overboard with the heroes? Any help would be appreciated.
>>
>>51424293
Ok, here's better way of thinking about it. Would you rather have:

A) Nagash? - 900 points
B) 180 grots? - 900 points

A) Lord Kroak? - 540 points
B) 100 grots + some snotlings? - 540 points

A) Archaon? - 700 points
B) 140 grots? - 700 points

in every case the grots win out. wound-wise, damage-wise, maybe not bravery-wise but that's irrelevant when you have as many grots on the board as you do.
>>
>>51424338
If they're gutbuster grots, set them up with a tyrant as the boss, you have D3 grots less in a unit, but they're immune to battleshock as long as the tyrant's up (which is always since he's in a sea of grots)
>>
>>51424321
Skullreapers and Bloodstoker would be a really nice combo.
A Mighty Lord would also be nice to have, since his unlimited unbinds can really help against magic-heavy armies.
Beyond that, I can only tell you that 40 Bloodreavers are unwieldy as fuck and that I hate gorefists since they are worthless garbage.
>>
>>51424362
You're speaking my language, brutha
>>
I already own a significant number of Tzeentch Daemons for 40k, and I'm looking at getting some Tzaangors and/or Kairic Acolytes for my Thousand Sons to use as Cultists/Tzaangors. Looking at the Disciples of Tzeentch book, it looks kinda fun. Is it cheesy though? I'm not really interested in trying to get into AoS if I'm going to be met with the same reaction that I get trying to play mono-Tzeentch in 40k.
>>
>>51424338
What exatly is the point you're trying to make, anon? That statistic averages reign supreme? That many heroes cost a lot for what they bring? That it's better to spam? Yeah, we kinda knew all of that already.
I honestly don't follow.
>>
>>51424423
Don't spam Skyfires and you're fine.
>>
>>51424433
Naw, it would mostly be Daemons with a handful of footbound Arcanites.
>>
>>51424376
Have you ever used Soul Grinders before? I'm thinking maybe two of them would be a nice compliment to the list. Some ranged support, speed and decent damage.
>>
>>51424321
Maybe get some skullcannons, if you dont plan on running pure mortal. And that battalion, forgot the name, for getting more attacks. Also maybe a Lord on Juggernaut.
>>
>>51424487
I hate how they look utterly out of place, so I have not used them, no.
Stats are good though.
Still, I'd rather use a Skullcannon as it doesn't look like ass.
>>
>>51424321
>>51424591
Oh and also some Skullreapers, as the other guy said. Maybe check if you can get your hands on a slaughterstorm box.

>>51424487
Guess they would work as well (in theory), I never use them as I despise those models.

>>51424487

Not the anon you asked, but I love my soul grinder. Fast, hits hard and the shooting can help out to weaken a stronger monster on turn 1.

Trying it out with a bloodsecrator for the first time this weekend.
>>
>>51416536
No cost, it's a piece of scenery. You place it down as usual. For firtifications, do you mean the walls and fences or the dreadfort? Both have rules.
>>
>>51424645
So I was thinking something like this.

Aspiring Deathbringer - General
Bloodthirster of Insensate Rage
Mighty Lord of Khorne
Slaughterpriest
Bloodsecrator

Mighty Skullcrushers x6 - Glaives
Blood Warriors x10 - Axes, Glaive
Blood Warriors x10 - Axes, Glaive
Bloodreavers x20 - Axes
Skullreapers x5 - Daemonblades, Soultearer

Soulgrinder - Daemonbone Talon

Total - 1980

I was wondering if it was like 40k in that you could pay a points cost for a piece of beneficial terrain, and place it as you like with your army, like an aegis wall. I guess sigmar doesnt do that though? I'm kind of new to this.

>>51424807
Alternatively I could make the bloodthirster the unfettered fury one instead.
>>
>>51419488

>>
>>51424807

Do you already have the bloodthirster? Admittedly I've only played the unfettered fury, but I haven't been impressed by it. Unfettered fury looks like the best of the three but I don't think is a heap better.

Skarbrand destroys, though.
>>
>>51424811

You can, though only two scenery items have a points cost so far, allowing you to take them in match play.

No, this is the army I'm planning on getting when I start playing. So I can make any changes really.
>>
I just went over the Tzeentch stuff I have before starting to build it, when I realized an issue: There are only 8 Kairic Acolythes in Silver Tower.
Now what do I do about the two missing guys?
Maybe do a head and weaponswap on the Darkoath Chieftain and greenstuf him another loincloth? But even then I'd still be a guy short...

For the Tzaangors this will not be an issue since they all get the leftover spears from my Skyfires and will be placed on Screamers, forming makeshift Enlightened.
>>
>>51424935
Ebay them? They might sell them in singles.
>>
>>51424856
Wrath of Khorne nakesfor a wonderful buddy for Skarbrand. His command speeds up Skar wonderfully, compensating for his lack of wings, and between the two of them they can tag-team anything.
>>
>>51424856
>Unfettered fury looks like the best of the three

Meant to say Insensate Rage here.

>>51424888

>So I can make any changes really.
Another Soul Grinder would be better in my opinion. I like Skull cannons, but they're really hurt by the single shot per turn. I've had games where they literally do nothing until they make it into combat.

Flesh hounds could give you some speed and they put out a massive number of attacks.

Wrathmongers can really help with monster killing.

Alternately, another bloodsecrator or never a bad option.

In the end, Khorne has no shortage of great units. You've got a nice base, personally I'd go with a second soul grinder but that does come with the risk of being taken out but anti-monster specialists.

Balewind Vortex does a have point cost though, you summon it during the game.

Seraphon are good fun, have a vast selection of units, monsters and heroes, contain some of the best magic in the game and can adapt to a large number of playstyles. They also have consistently good rules, with the worst being a few slightly below average units.
That said, they also have a host of utterly broken bullshit that can be at times hard to avoid.

Legit non bait question.

Can anyone prove that AoS has any other tactic other then take combo X and hope your combo does more damage then your opponants combo.

Because truthfully, all i see is that each army basiclly has its handful of power combos that you want to stick in your army and hope they pay off.

It seems like there is less strategy and more run at each other, clash, and hope for the best.
