I'm running 20 clanrats with spears in 1000pts games. I think it's also a maximum for blades clanrats if you want to reach something with most of them
>>
>>51900115
I always like to at least double up.

Daemonettes - 20-30
Seekers - 5-10 depending on what you want them to hit.
Fiends - 3 otherwise they just don't do much.
Skeleton Warriors - 20 w/ Swords, 30 w/ Spears.
Clanrats - 20 w/ Swords, 30-40 w/ Spears.

I'm gonna try units of 10 soon, just to hit the minimum and max my Skryre trinkets. Just use them purely as fodder.

Units of 20 have proven remarkably resilient in my small games so far. Only when combined with the warlord and mythic shield. You add +1 against DMG 1 weapons so they've got a decent save when fighting other core troops. They need a general baby sitting them though
>>
When will Ironjawz get some sort of vehicle or artillery? Their range is so small. They need some more shit.
>>
>>51899756
What cool units could they give slaanesh in case they re-boot it like the disciples of tzeentch?

Id love to see a Hit and Run Ranged Unit.

Also a new models for "The Masque" with her holding a Beatiful Mask in front of her disgutingly wretched daemon face or something like that would be rad AF.
>>

>>51901715

>>
>>51900827

Nice.

Might I suggest an errant questor with the Hoarfrost blade to represent the debilitating effects of the net?
>>
>>51901714

i think they are going to mix dark elves with slaanesh.

they will be the mortal part and the all the old daemons will be rehashed to be less fanservice and more serial killer.

slaanesh will control the realm of shadows and fight against the chaos gods (still being chaos aligned though) for trying to fuck him over.
>>
>>51901715
Archaon, a few gaunt summoners. Then as many squads of varanguard as you can fit.

Dont use chaos knights as countsas varanguard. they use different base sizes and are just not the same size. its a major cheap copout
>>
>>51901663
I know you have the speed from the Grinder and Thirster but other than that it's kidna slow.

Maybe add some more ranged so you can at least bombard your opponent as you run up.
>>
>>51901701
Ironjawzs is the most Brutal Melee Army in the game to a point where you might aswell remove your units from the field the second they are in base contact with a Brute squad.

Giving them decent ranged support or (even more mobility on top of destruction ability) would make it even worse.

Then again we got Marysuecast eternals and Stormfiends in the game.

Rip anyone who still plays armies from old fantasy
>>
>>51901663

I'd try to find a place for a war shrine and a second bloodsecrator

And if possible switch the gorefists for the -1 rend axes on the blood warriors
>>
>>51901730
>>51901764

dont forget to play them as tzeentch alliegence so you can use destiny dice and rape everyone with archaon guarenteed 6's
>>
>>51901766
Alright, maybe not artillery or whatever, but I'd still like to see them expand the range. There's like 6 fucking units.
>>
>>51901766

>elf player who doesn't actually play AOS

Pure empire will poop all over ironjawz, filthy nonhuman

>>51901793

If they made brutes and ardboyz battleline as long as your general was ironjawz, it would go a long way towards making ironjawz lists more interesting
>>
>>51901793
To add to my reply, I think it'd be nice to see them do a new model for Grimgor and the Black Orc Boss.
>>
>>51901714
Something like demented artists would be cool. Painters who use buckets of blood and jizz, violin players who play on barbed wire, actors who have made their own faces into masks, that kind of twisted stuff.
>>
>>51901809
I'd like to see brutez get an arbalest, and a boss option for the gore-gruntas. I'm mostly in the hobby for modelling and painting, but those seem like they'd be fun to play as well.
>>
>>51901816

Grimgor is dead dead and megabosses *are* the new black orc boss.


What I would love are A) complete redesign of goregruntas and B) wyvern riding ironjawz unit
>>
>>51901761
I want to see Slaanesh go towards the "cenobite" type look. Kinda like that one faction of Dark Eldar.

Lots of chains, lots of body piercings, very nightmarish.
>>
>>51901882
Why a complete redesign of gore-gruntas? I think they look pretty cool, aesthetically.

I would like to see more mounted units, though. Like infantile maw-krushas, that are still fucking huge, or a chariot for the gore-gruntas.
>>
>>51901701
I'd like some bare-chested orcs carrying big, unusual throwing weapons like bolas or something.
Arty doesn't really fir their style, nor do they need it.
>>
>>51901793
Heavy armored Grots with spikes all over their bodies. Their main goal is to run towards an enemy and leap at them, impaling them with their spike armors.
>>
>>51901870

I'm totally up for an arbalest, it would be a nice progression for ironjawz to go from having a gigantic catapult like greenskins to have an enormous fucking crossbow.

>>51901901

Sorry redesign of their rules, I love their models.

>infantile mawkrushas

Fund it.

Ironjawz chariots sound great too.

Perhaps a brute mob with tower shields?
>>
>>51901809
>If they made brutes and ardboyz battleline as long as your general was ironjawz, it would go a long way towards making ironjawz lists more interesting
That's what I've been saying! Nice to see it catching on.

Even if ardboys were just a standard battleline it would go a long way in fixing ironjaws.
>>
I'm confused. Are most of the Ironjawz units not battleline? I thought they all were
>>
>>51901701
Ironjaws are fast as shit, they don't need range.

Just take 3 weirdboyz and throw spells at stuff you dont like and can't reach.

get your warboss on a maw krusha and just go fly at whatever is annoying you.
>>
>>51901776
The -1 axes are for the Bloodreavers, not Blood Warriors.
>>
>>51901755
It's actually meant as a beastmaster of sorts, so I plan on using the Lord-Castellant warscroll with either Hoarfrost or Armor of Silvered Sigmarite.
Assuming I ever actually field all the Gryph-hounds I now own. 40pts per doggo is insane...
>>
>>51901967
they are battleline as long as your entire army is ironjaws. as in even if you bring in like a giant, none of their units are battleline
>>
>>51901777
doesn't work like that, anon.

You can bestow the TZEENTCH keyword in the HERO PHASE, not during setup. so you won't have tzeentch alleigance when the game starts.

that skin looks just as flat as when you first posted these.
>>
>>51901967
ironjawz have no battleline unless your take ironjaws allegiance. and if you do that, they currently don't have any allegiance abilities.

so you can either mix in a few good meshing battleline units from destruction, or just take whatever is cheapest, for the battleline tax.

or you can just play a pick-up game with people, no points.
>>
>>51902004
Well the battleforce wasnt designed for matched play, which uses points and battleline rules. It was designed for open play which is pretty much bring whatever you want with no points.

If you want to field the whole box you need to either a) leave out the gargant when playing matched, or b) get a couple cheap destruction battlelines like orruk boys or grots
>>
>>51901933
Arbalests seems to encroach too much on the Stormcast style now. We already get accused of playing Stormcast Eternals II: Blackorc Boogaloo, that'd be too much.
Crude blunderbusses or gunpowder-filled javelins I could see. Or maybe even some more unusual stuff like bolas or chained hooks to drag down opponents.
>>
>>51901995

Ah I see.

They're actually not terrible (3-4 ish) as long as you remember to activate them first and get them out of pile in range with your roll.

Also quite useful if you have some raptors nearby to shoot deep strikers.

>>51901981

That's fucking gay.

I keep having revelations about how theres an inverse relationship between how good liberators become with experience compared to how bad blood warriors become with experience.

>>51902086

I'm okay with Ironjawz going the ogre route of firearms but as I recall, Ironjawz lore is literally them seeing stormcast and saying "we can do that better"
>>
>>51902041

Everything except the silver looks pretty flat to me. Good enough for tabletop but not particularly interesting visually.
>>
>>51902117
IIRC, warscroll battalions are still bound to the constraints of the unit type requirements.

Like if the battalion you take doesn't include any battleline units, you need to take some of those along side the battalion.
>>
>>51901626
People are just being overly sensitive in these threads. Not really an attractive quality. The bingo card is just the worst example of this defensiveness
>>
>>51902117
yep. and to field that battalion you still need to get your battleline requirements elsewhere. Unless the battalion grants the gargant the ironjawz keyword
>>
>>51902144
yeah, but the skin is the worst offender right now.
>>
>>51902165
Yup, they think the bingo card is a good way to shut down shitposters but it just makes them look just as bad. It's embarrassing. I cringe every time I see it.

Some constructive criticism hopefully.

The models look good, better than some shit posted here. The skin definitely needs a wash and highlight. The crossbows need some more colors, all gold is kinda bland. Pick out the wood, color the bolt tips, etc. I think these changes would make these look much better.
>>
>>51902372
They don't exist. I'm not being coy here. There is no digital version of the Grand Alliance stuff. If you want them, you'll need to shell out for the printed version.

Yes but the effect is opposite: if a warscroll battalion is marked as Ironjawz, all units within become Ironjawz for the purpose of allegiance.

Well, if you are running bigger units like 30-40 - yes. You can reach more enemy models with your 2" spear. If you have 20 or less rats in your unit then I would pick blades.

I have two boxes of this love, and both are called "Spire of Dawn". I know it's just re-packed IoB but Aelves have their own starter set with 27 models, new decent battalion and a lot of old neat models. What Aelves need right now is battletome IMO

That's awesome! I'm super happy you're getting a lot of mileage out of that repack.

The Sylvaneth are not Wood Elves. They have strained relationship with the Aelves in AoS.

The Tree Revenant are just a new addition to their race. They are the warrior class of the Sylvaneth. The Everqueen shaped tthem in the image of the ancient protectors of the forest from the World That Was.

The actual Wood Elves are the Wanderers (picture related). And they must redeem themselves in the eyes of the Sylvaneth.

Ok, extra options need to have points in this game. Just take a look at Daemon Princes. You can run them without wings or with wings. With wings costs no additional cost and has no downsides. Why would you ever NOT take this? You'd be a damn fool. This also limits how you can model them since you'll always want to use wings so you'll always need to have winged models.

Unless there is a price increase and I'm just not seeing it on scrollbuilder?
>>
>>51904932

You already paid for flying, they expect you to take it. All the AoS daemon princes pictures I've seen have wings, they just left room for the old models that don't.


Also flying is a pretty situational ability when your move is only 8", it's only some leftover models that have weird rules like that.

Most games I'd imagine it would hardly make a difference, unlike some other legacy models that can take mounts or not which is a real no brainer.
>>
>>51904932

Models that can take upgrades like banners or musicians are priced with the assumption that you'll take them.
>>
>>51903569
Again, considering that a Slaaneshi Chaos Lord literally RAPES A BEASTMAN in one of the AoS novels, I highly doubt this.

I feel like Ironjawz should have baseline Ardboyz as battleline. It would allow ironjawz to branch out. I wouldn't mind owning ardboyz then since they serve a better purpose. And it would allow them to move into other options for ranged with taking stuff like bonesplittaz or grots arty. A boss on boar would be cool. Maybe a way to get other heroes on wyvern equivalents?
>>
>>51905745

Yeah I always thought of Ironjawz Waaaghs as the core of Ironjawz being followed by a bunch of normie orc gitz looking for a fight, rather than a pure orcyan race that doesn't mix with the unterorc

>>
>>51906428
No. You leave a certain amount of empty points.

Say you leave 300 points open in your army. With that, you could summon in, say, a Burning Chariot and a unit of Pink Horrors, or a Bloodthirster of Unfettered Fury, or a Soulgrinder, or anything that would consume the points.

So you don't need to start with any of those on the table to summon more of them?

>>51906277

I feel like there must have been a better way to do it while being balanced

Maybe if you summon a unit successfully, you can add it to an existing unit up to that units original maximum size.

If you create a new unit, you pay the point cost

Shit I don't know, summoning in any game is difficult to balance

Oh another fix Ironjawz need. Their command ability not being garbage. The fact it has a chance to not even go off is hot trash. I played a game today that had 5 ironjaw units nearby. I rolled a 6 and it sealed in my fate as losing that game. Does any other command ability even have the chance to not happen? Seems pretty stupid. Also the caster needs to say "Closest other Orruk unit" cause right now, he is the closest orruk unit so he will do d3 mortal wounds to himself, killing himself first.

Summer I think.

It seems mostly like a points shake up with some other balancing changes.

>>
>>51907558
just sucks that its once per game and while can definitely dish out the hurt, is really worth 15-20 wounds of models over the megaboss on maw krusha, who can take battle brew or the talisman of protection? and even then, is the megaboss on maw krusha worth the 2 squads + hero you could take? I've generally found that maybe going to 2k the mawkrusha definite works out, but at 1k or even 1.5k, he starts to feel iffy.
>>
>>51907655
That's what the faqs are for. No matter how precise they can make it, some people are going to still not understand and ask questions. I feel the ruleset is pretty good and the faqs have made intentions more well known.

>>51907614
I'm just saying, there didn't need to be a FAQ. People just don't read the warscroll for some reason.

>>
>>51907662

Artifacts and command abilities really do seem to push the normal megaboss krusha over the top, especially with battlebrew
>>
>>51907856
Battlebrew makes him a definite killer. Taking battle brew and even taking bellowing tyrant is good on the one with the riptooth since you benefit from hitting on 2's with riptooth fist. Also any -1 hit shenanigans can get negated. Also the increased range is what really helps the mawkrusha, I agree, but its still that silly stupid chance of it not working. It's something I'll probably never understand. Cause it already only lasts on your combat phase.
>>
>>51902167
It does. It's an Ironjawz battalion, so all the units in it are Ironjawz.

Sylvaneth have something like it - it lets 'em take any Order wizard they want. You can see where this is going.

>>51908194
ok what book is this in? unless it says the gargant has the ironjawz keyword specifically, the gargant just does not gain it. it doesnt matter if the battalion is ironjaws, the gargant doesnt gain the ironjawz keyword by just being in it, again, unless it specifically says he gains it

Alrighty boyz n' gurlz - so I got the start collecting skeleton horde and..
2 scratch built necromancers
a box of grave guard
7 extra skeletons
an extra box of black knights/hexknights
and a box of varghiests


I'm thinking of using some extra money on Mannfred on his steed/Konrad for painting fun and army flavor. Probably need some zombies and such too, gonna find an old 8E VC batallion for it and the corpse cart among other things. I'm basically going for normal grand alliance death.

The battalion has the Ironjawz allegiance, thus all models in the battalion are considered Ironjawz for army building (but not in game for buffs)


It's not super intuitive I know but that's what the FAQ says, pic related
>>
>>51908617
Ok that makes sense, but what is the name of this battalion? I cant find it anywhere. what's it called in the GHB?
>>
>>51908643

No idea, I don't see any points values for it. It might have just been a "play out of the box" battalion for open play
>>
>>51908659
ah so it turns out you cant take a gargant in an ironjaws army without having to go elsewhere for battlelines, which is what this whole argument was about
>>
>>51908671
Since we're talking about the Gargant, do you think I should sell the Gargant from the Thunderfist box and buy something else?
>>
>>51908680
Nah, a gargant is still a very cool model. Keep it, because hopefully GHB2 opens more battleline options, which was a common complaint when GW asked for feedback on the GHB.

If anything you have a cool centerpiece model for narrative play, and maybe you will expand and get a couple units of grots or orruk boys which would allow you to field it in matched play.
>>
>>51908702
Maybe you're right. Also, the only army I will be facing (most of the time) is skaven, so his ability to instakill low wound models would come in handy
>>
>>51908748
There is a ton of conversion potential for the gargant. Just google image search "warhammer giant conversion". I would try to get some skaven models and have him holding a couple and stick one in a cage or under his foot or something.
>>
>>51908779
Is there any way I could convert him to be more of an "orruk" gargant? I doubt very much, but I mean, greenstuff does wonderful things

Stick some big jaw bits on him, paint him green, use extra ironjaws bits on him. I'd say super doable.

What's wrong with Poisoned-Wind Mortar? I'm playing 1000 pts games and these fuckers are often my MVPs - it's common for me to wreck the shit out of bigger enemy units before first melee fight thanks to mortars. Anon's are often claiming that mortars are useless and flamethrowers are better but at the end of the day both teams are poorly average.
Did I miss something? I have not played a lot of games - mainly against bloodbound, aelves and other skavens so maybe I was lucky?

Usually you use the rules of units that are included in your list, why should you be able to to use the rules of a unit that you don't have in your list?
>>
>>51910679
They're pretty baller against large units. However they still have a hit, wound and save roll. Fire throwers on the other hand have guaranteed damage, but are short ranged and need their special ability to be effective. I like them both, and PWM can skulk in cover more effectively.
>>
>>51910679
Also, they both have a maximum damage of (mortal) 6 wounds

The mortar has a higher range and can shoot from cover, but requires more rolls and doesn't deal mortal wounds

The thrower deals mortal wounds but is very low range, thus putting himself in danger

From latin veritas, i.e. truth.
The Lords-Veritant are revelators of falsehood and corruption, hence them being called truth-bringers.

Why do Kurnoth Hunters cost 160 when they are strictly better than Kroxigors that cost 180
>>
Do female Skaven exist in AoS?
>>
>>51912222
If they did, they wouldn't be any different than the female skaven of ye olde worlde

I.e. not waifu material
>>
>>51912182
Yeah I figured that one out a while ago. I took some Latin so I know veritas pretty much means truth.

Now I'm curious about aquilor

Hey guys, just 1 question:
new grots when?
>>
>>51912371
2 weeks from now
>>
>>51912203
>Why do Kurnoth Hunters cost 160 when they are strictly better than Kroxigors that cost 180

because the balance is driven by sales needs and not by a desire for balanced play.
>>
>>51902031
>e unless your take ironjaws allegiance. and if you do that, they currently don't have any allegiance abilities.
yeah but you'd still get the destruction allegiance abilities and have brutes as beefy battleline
>>
>>51908194
normally it'd need points, but they made it part of the FAQ that "keyworded" battalions don't break allegiance but do not confer the keyword to units inside of it for in game purposes
>>
>>51912286

It's pretty obvious Aquilor comes from Aquila, the eagle that carried Zeus thunderbolts for him.

He even has an entire constellation named after him IRL, making it doubly appropriate as a name for a stormcast.
>>
Computer games when?
>>
>>51912452

T b h I'm not sure what allegiance ability Ironjawz could get that would be better than the plain destruction ability
>>
>>51912518
>Computer games when?

but anon... then you would never paint your minis and we all know you already have enough trouble finding the motivation to paint them.
>>
>>51912518

I would love a mini campaign for total warhammer that covered from the opening of the gates of azyr to Vandus beating Kruul on the pyramid.

No meta map, same units carry over between missions but any reinforcements can be vanguard deployed by lightning
>>
Guys, I would like to make a StrawPoll to know what armies are played on /tg/. Asking about GA would be too inaccurate but on the other hand there are too many small factions to include everyone. How should I part them?
>>
>>51912649

Race unless there's a battletome division

So just say high elves, dark elves, wood elves, free people, etc

But say Greenskins and Ironjawz since there's a battletome division there.

>>51912649
these + the new ones.
>>
>>51912649
Just do both.

I can also predict that Order has the most players and Death has the least players.
>>
>>51908598
But the regular orruk warboss gets a base +1 attack for its command ability and it affects all orruks. The megaboss only affects Ironjawz. Seems awfully weird that his normal counter part always gets +1 attack. Yes I know they don't have the option for +2 attacks, but for ironjawz to have an ability that swingy is indeed off putting.
>>
>>51912526
I'm hoping for two things. Either a combined Greenskin book ala Tzeentch or Stormcast, or whatever they do give us makes it better than +d6 movement, cause right now, that's pretty damn strong with Ironfist.
>>
>>51912491
Ah so that's where Aquila comes from. I know 40k uses it too, and it makes sense. Cool
>>
>>51912817
If that allegiance ability exists, I don't see it.
Barring horrendously overpowered shit like +1 Attack for every model on the charge, there is very little an army of slow melee beatsticks could want instead of improved movement, and even then I'd probably take the +d6 movement.
I've seen Fyreslayer, Bloodbound and Beastmen players despair over the fact that their allegiance ability is *not* Rampaging Destroyers.
>>
What's stongest army after Stormcasts?
>>
>>51912907
Ironjawz
>>
>>51912798

Yeah that's pretty silly
>>
>>51912907

Stormcast are top 5 but probably not number 1.

But the answer is beastclaw raiders

>>51913038

I fucking wish
>>
>>51912893
It is really good and I can see why. Though to be fair, Fyreslayers atleast have shooting attacks. Bloodbound I agree with. but I've seen beastmen haul ass across the board and especially since they can run and charge giving them rampaging destroyers means the entire army is in an Ironfist battalion.

But yeah, Ironjawz don't need a flat +1 attack on the charge. It's fine that they have to Waagh, but as i've posted in this thread, it shouldn't be so random for basically being the Biggest of all Black Orcs.

Maybe some sort of reroll on the Waagh Dice? Or minus the number of units needed to achieve +2 attacks?

Im hoping if it's a greenskins book, we get stormcast treatment for totem units. Allow customizing the warchanter or warboss with Waagh banner.

Weapon artefacts would be good. Maybe mount upgrade? Since we got wyverns and boars. Dunno though, maybe if we got a megaboss on boar and Bonesplittaz got their boss on a flying mount as shown in art.

General trinkets would be nice. Could just bring in the bonesplittaz stuff for one of the lists, and make one for ironjawz and green skins.

I think there's a lot you can do with the orruks, it just requires gw to do a little bit more with them.
>>
Is there any other place to find the official tournament rules or is it always going to be in the General's Handbook?
>>
>>51913054
So, whats number 1 army?
>>
>>51900784
At work at the moment but looking forward to getting home tonight and working on more nurgley goodness.

Question about shadows over hammerhal, I've always been a collector and painter, but I suggested a night playing shadows over hammerhal and all my normie friends were totally down for it: how long does it take to run through a dungeon and the surface stuff? I've got more than 5 people who want to come along.
>>
>>51913078
During a masters tournament it was tomb kings, but a nerf to their points is coming soon.

However just about every tournament results has a different top army, so it's hard to determine what is THE top army right now, which can be seen as a good thing at this point

Looks great. Maybe a little less bieltan green and more athonian camoshade, but otherwise looks good
>>
>>51913078

It was tomb kings but they're getting the nerf bat pretty hard and it's pretty difficult to say exactly who else would be number 1.

Kurnoth hunter sylvaneth, skaven, beastclaws, free people's, Tzeentch?, stormcast* are all probably contenders for high tier competitive

* stormcast, living up to their reputation, occupy a similar position on the tier list as vanilla marines do in 40k: played right they're quite good, played wrong they're hot garbage.

I'd say have one unit of three in any case, but you don't have to fill your list with them to be effective.
>>
I think I need your help. I'm new to the game, and I bought the general's handbook, where the Ironjawz units (my army of choice) can be taken as battleline only if the army sports the "ironjawz" allegiance.

Does this mean that if I wanted to include (let's say) a unit of arrer boyz in order to get some ranged support, then I would lose the ironjawz allegiance and have an umplayable army without units counting as battlelines? Or can I choose which allegience I prefear when making the list? How does it work?
>>
>>51913621
Kurnoth hunter spam. Skyrefyre Skaven. Beastclaws.

I would really put free people up there I think. Handgunners are really good, but they suffer from not being able to move to get really good shots off. Stormcast might still be top tier, but dunno yet. Tzeentch i think can be a good middle high tier with Ironjawz. They have good shooting, magic is really good, and if you play Tzaangors, good melee.
>>
>>51913729
You have it right the first time. Being an Ironjaw only army means all of your troops are Battleline, so you can spam them to your hearts content. But if you want to go Ironjawz and bonesplittaz, now you need general destruction battleline. A lot of ironjawz are hoping for Ardboyz to be battleline in the future so Ironjaw players can branch out.
>>
>>51904057
Is this from the Order GA book?
>>
>>51913784

thank you. Well, at this point it's safe to say that It kind of sucks as it is now. Sure after all those stormcast books they could surely make us that favor after all.
>>
>>51913077
rebumping for this question
>>
>>51913864
Maybe on particular tournament site?
>>
>>51913802
Yes
>>
>>51913864
It will vary from tournament to tournament. If it's an ITC tournament, there is no universal rules or packet yet, because the GHB handles things well enough
>>
>>51913860
>after all those stormcast books
I wish this nonsense would go away and stay gone. If you are as new as you say, then you may want to stick to actual facts instead of regurgitating this shit.
Also, the stromcast book didn't make Freeguild Greatswords battleline, either. Ironjawz are near-perfect as is. We don't need much of anything except maybe non-shitty Gore-gruntas, and even that's debateable.
>>
>>51913860
Ironjawz got released before factions started getting benefits outside of battleline choice. Sylvaneth and Beastclaw raiders were one of the first factions to get this treatment, and they've slowly gone back and filled it in with Stormcasts getting an update. Khorne Bloodbound, Ironjawz, Seraphon, Pestilens and Flesh Eater courts were all released before the GHB so they didn't get anything outside of Battleline choice, so we are hoping they get what they are missing soon. Someone has rumor'd that there is a book coming out to give all of those missing factions artefacts and traits, and maybe that might be a hold over, but I'm really hoping for more books in the style of stormcast adn tzeentch.

Alright guys, we need to do some meme magic. The question is - what we want? Nurgle battletome or Aelves release? I'm for dwarves
>>
>>51914339
I'm sick of hearing about Nurgle and Dwarves desu.

There are other armies that need new releases much more than either of those.
>>
>>51914367
Let me guess - death? Because death would be ok too
>>
>>51914199
Gore-gruntas and rules that are not worth 180. While d3 damage sounds good, you have to have nothing within 8" to make it work, one of the few calv that have this stipulation. The weirdnob kills himself due to wording, his spells are also super hard to cast due to high level, and only by having a good amount of ardboyz will you even get the +casting he needs. And the command ability that has a chance to not work.
>>
>>51914383
I honestly think they're gonna revamp Tomb Kings lore and repackage alot of their nicer/newer models. It'd take virtually no effort on their part and given how the userbase has been screaming for them(Mostly newcomers to the franchise who like egyptian shit) I think it'd be dumb not to do that. Especially given that Death is seriously lacking. Just more of a question of when, rather than if.
>>
>>51914454
Well if they do, we don't know when it's coming or any inclinations of it in rumors.

So to everyone else

Newbies are starting with faction that looks cool in their opinion (Sylvaneth, Seraphon) or is cheap (SCE, Nurgle) - at least at my LGS

>>51914632
>Literally my mom's DEldar

your mom plays dark elder? shit your dad is a lucky guy. she's a freak
>>
>>51914613
I really think we will see much less TK begging when the nerf comes.

In 8th they were one of the lower tier factions which contributed to their popularity
>>
>>51914613
Believe it or not, most normies go by rule of cool when they pick their army. That's kind of the point of why this hobby is popular to begin with. They aren't really try hards.
>>
>>51914399
Gore-gruntas are shit, yes, which is a shame. As is the shaman, but then again, you're probably not playing Ironjawz for the magic oomph.
But the command ability is fine the way it is. It'd be absurdly powerful without the chance to fail. +1 or even +2 Attacks on every unit within 10? That's ridiculous.

My point is though that I've stated before is that the regular orruk greenskin warboss for the same points, gets +1 attack to all orruks within 12" no roll needed. And it's not like it's lasting till the next hero phase either. It's for the next combat phase.

Also why is it acceptable for our only caster to be awful and our calv to be awful as well?
