Age of Sigmar General /aosg/

Listening to the audiobooks on the bus every day and watching these new releases has made me absolutely love the AoS setting.

Would GW sue me if I put my AoS Savage Worlds supplement on TGA?

Reminder not to reply to butthurt shitposters

>>52189673
Nah, but the mods will just remove them and shadowban you.

Do people collect armies of grand alliances?

Because there are models I want from all of Destruction.

>>52189613
I'm really curious how they'll stat those airships. I mean, the Grundstok Gunhauler seems fairly straightforward; cannon, rifle, some 'move over unit, cause mortal wounds' ability and fly.
But the Arkanaut Ironclad looks like a hefty bastard with an enormous amount of cannons and shit.

Death > Order > Destruction > Chaos

>>52189688
it's becoming increasingly less viable as more and more factions are getting a full release
i run dispossesed/freeguild/ironweld but only because i can use longbeards to use my dwarf command traits regardless of who the general is
as soon as any of them get's a faction bonus it'll become pointless though

>>52189708
This is accurate

>>52189613
Why do they wear heavy armours? I think for sky pirates, light armor would be more beneficial.

Dwarves when?

>>52189773

The GW reveal mentions that they need it living and flying in the skies of the Mortal Realms, with all the magic blowing around that high.

>>52189688
>Do people collect armies of grand alliances?
Only retards who keep using old armies
>>52189779
>Dwarves when?
Right after brets

>>52189679
That's fair, It's not unhealthy to dedicate a community to a certain area.

>>52189613
Is it weird that all I see are abhuman helots that survived the dark age armed with st 5 energy weapons with some rotor cannons sprinkled around?

>>52189794
>yfw these fuckers probably don't need realmgates because they can sail from realm to realm through the ethereal winds of magic

>>52189773
Aren't they traveling through space?

>>52189836
>>52189856
Was it ever stated that Realmgates and Warprifts aren't only possible ways to travel between the realms?]
Also, did they really include Slambo in AoS, or just give him rules?

>>52189856
No, the Realms have their own atmospheres but sometimes there are areas that are hostile to life due to elemental fury or excess Chaos corruption.

>>52189875
No, the Seraphon travel via their own means. The Skaven use Gnawholes. There is a Nurglite character that uses his space Kraken to travel between the realms.

>>52189924
So gates, rifts and space, shit, still doesn't fit.

>>52189887
Yeah, it's space.

>>52189703
I can see just two kinds of guns, the big gatling and the hulls cannons.

In AoS you can divide shots as you wish so you could do a single profile for all the hulls cannon and give them a lot of shots.

Otherwise I can see a rule like "It can shoot its hull cannon once at each target within range".

>>52189613
>>52189703
Okay, I'll bite. How much are they going to cost?

In Australian Dollars.

>>52189951
Just wait for their Battletome, I'm sure they'll explain shit there.

>>52190024

Actually, it's curious to note that until now we've had only a token Death-fag whining about not getting new shit and no elf player claiming how this release would have worked so much better if it was elves instead.
Then again, the last thread was a shitshow as is, so maybe that would have been too much.

Okay so what happened to Vandus? I can't find his fate in the books

>>52190024
The Frigate and especially the Ironclad are probably not cheap, considering their fairly substantial size. I'd expect around the usual monster prices. The Gunhauler is probably a good bit cheaper.

>>52190131
When GW releases the Nulahmia campaign.

Winner determines which Battletome they will release first. Soulblight (Vampires) or Slaanesh.

>>52190141
He hit Skarbrand with a nuke on a stick in All-gates. Read that.

Hey guys, just starting to get into the hobby

Was thinking of getting some gobos, but it seems like people get kind of hostile when you use the old armies. Should I just wait for the new dwarves to release instead?

>>52190141
He defeated Skarbrand using an super hammer in the Allgate book. He still around doing Stormcast stuff.

>>52190154
>>52189703
>>52189613
Haven't looked that far into it, but are all the airships distinct models? Or are they a multi-set?

>>52190188
Aside from that possibility, I am in love with these models.

>>52190167
Nah, old armies are fine. Goblins are okay overall, but you must be aware that you might be waiting a *long* time for any new shit to come out for you.
Hope you like painting lots of green. Lots and lots of green.

I want to get balloon dorf and convert him to be sitting in the flying orb. Headswap for a bare head, make him ginger and I'm all ready to HATE THAT HEDGEHOG across the mortal realms

>SYLVAN FIELDS ZONE

>>52190188
Those three are separate as far as i can tell.
Hull shape is too different to be a single multi.

>>52190198
Distinct models. Look at the hulls alone, there is no way this is a multi-form kit.

>>52188614
This

I'm already laying down my headcanon to have the indian karaks developing away from the conservatism of the world's edge mountains and becoming the karardron overlords.

>>52190167
Those are just retards who say the old armies dont fit the setting EVEN THOUGH THE NEW SETTING IS LITERALLY A MULTIVERSE

>>52190202
Have him chase around a gor.

>>52190163
>>52190178
Wait what was that bit about Archaon killing some major character and stopping them reforming then?

>>52190237
It's incredibly cringey and fake how GW cynically force old armies into the setting

>>52190237
>EVEN THOUGH THE NEW SETTING IS LITERALLY A MULTIVERSE
So what?

>>52190188
Look at the dwarfs inside. The hull are a lot different in size from one ship to another. They seem to be Land speeder, Stormtalon and Stormraven sized.

>>52190259
so everyone should play the same 5 armies?

Tell it to the guys whose souls were eaten by Archaon's steed.

We aren't going to see those guys reforged.

>>52190058
They literally could repackage Necrosphinx and tomb kings maybe update Settra by reworking em into the lore and make scads of money

>>52190331
>pipe integrated into the faceplate
Brilliant!

>>52190278
Yep, because come on who wants to play local police in setting about super-soldiers.

But there is. They can capture their souls.

Archaon and Nagash are planning to create their own Sigmarines.

>>52190388
Don't you have anything better to do than repeat the same shit for hours on end?

>>52190416
>I would buy an arbites army in a fucking second
Arbiteres are not cops, they FBI mostly (because I am pretty sure one of Cain book mentioned how police named in 40k).

>>52190353

Of course not, that would imply actually modelling, playing or having friends.

>>52190423
Prove me wrong

>>52190388
>local police
I dunno. You keep saying that, but why don't you ask the assload of people playing any imperial force besides space marines?

>>52190425
>Boohoo, gw cleared the bottom of the insignificant character bin

So they can't lose or face challenges except for when they do, which doesn't count?

>>52190331
Looks awesome anon.

>>52190449
Not an argument.

>>52190438
no, arbites are cops, the inquisition are the fbi

>>52190462
Do not attempt logic here. That's not going to work.

>>52190462
What I'm saying is even though they lose guys, they win 80% of the battles

>>52190474
Aren't there also factions within the Inquisition that work with the Arbites?

>>52190422
>Archaon and Nagash are planning to create their own Sigmarines.

Nagash is thinking about it, but Archaon doesn't need or want them. His Varanguard generally wreck Stormcast face every time they face them.

People complaining that the armies in AoS are too heroic.

They probably wanted to be moisture farmers in Star Wars too.

>>52190474
>>52190488
I can't quite recall a moment they directly worked together.

>>52190487
Because when chaos wins every time the end result is the setting gets squatted

>>52190493
Not that I necessarily with people who give AOS that criticism. But it could be that way due to their approach.

>>52190493
No, they wanted to play smuggler or noble or mercenary without having a lightsaber, forcepowers and a epic destiny shoved down their throat as soon as they left the tutorial.

>>52190493
It's the edgelords who play chaos so they can literally wank about killing and raping people

>>52190141
Archaon cut him in half and destroyed his soul.

And this happened after the Khorne incident.

>>52190488
>Aren't there also factions within the Inquisition that work with the Arbites
Yes, all of them. They have different powers, but work together frequently.

ONLI TEH FAIPTHFUL!!!!

>>52190487
Except that in All Gates Order won three gates out of five. So it's more of a 60% with the help of the unified order faction.


>>52190526
Even then the setting just came from a "chaos won for hundreds of years, order just started to win something now".

>>52190563
Not him, you are thinking about another Stormcast Character

>>52190571
Ah, I see. Thank you for clarifying.

>>52190579
Huh?

>>52190454
Dunno, looks like there is a lot of betacucks who want to play perma-losers
>>52190471
And it wasn't argument, you just cannot prove me wrong that old armies are just npc in setting, like PDF in 40k.

>>52190586
>25% of the landscape winning 60% of the fights

>See the the flavor text of these new pirate dwarfs

I was like what? Archaon is still out there man.

>>52190245
Archaon allowed Vandus to return to Azyr.

Archaon perma-killed Thostos Bladestorm by feeding him to his mount

>>52190331
Add a monocle m8

>>52190628
I think the implication is that relative balance is in effect now that the SE can actually fight chaos. Although i'm still a bit confused by that as well.

>>52190601
Not an argument

dice+1d20

just because

>>52190608
Nice try, but Death and Destruction didn't partecipate.

And sorry, my mistake, it's 2 Gates out of 4. The won in Life and Fire, while losing in Metal and Death.

So it's literally 50% of the landscape winning 50% of the times against the other 50%.

>>52190628
It's referencing the end of Age of Chaos and how the SE took over realms controlled by Chaos.

>>52190650
Nice shitposting

Fine. Didn't destruction win Ghur?

>>52190688

I admit I don't remember. I seem to recall they didn't fight there for some reason.

>>52190718
Except I talking about setting while you just shitposting

>>52190716
They came in wrecked both sides and caused the gate to be lost to all sides before partying out of there.

>>52190787
And we got Beastclaw Riders as result.

>>52190778
No, you just repeat yourself.

>>52190813

>>52190595
Anon is trying to mock what's probably the single motto/quote/catchphrase from AoS that barely nears being popular that is being pushed by GW in an attempt to build fidelity towards the new fluff.

they should stick to familiars and pets I say.

>>52190586
Who did archaon permanent kill?

>>52190833
Because you aren't here to discuss, just to repeat your opinion and dismissing all others.

You're not worth a cohesive argument, only low level mockery.

Eh, it's a double edged sword. Kill something with no name or with little story and you get accused of killing only unimportant characters. Kill someone with an established arc and what's the point of all that shit happening.

AoS has not much fluff by itself; you would either need to create it yourself or take it from the old world.

>>52190996

Likewise, maybe an enslaved giant.

Rock trolls would be likely too, living underground.

>>52191080
I like this idea, enslaved ogors and giants

Even decorate their bases with grots with poking sticks and whips as slavedrivers.

>>52189875
The SCE Gryphchargers have a rule called Ride The Winds Aetheric which lets them move faster then the eyes can see.
The Kharadron have a model called the Aetheric Navigator and another called the Aetheric Khemist.

Could it be possible that the two might be related?

This is a serious question for Age of Sigmarines.

When you roll up to the local GW and it's you surrounded by 10 12 year olds, how do you not feel embarrassed? When their parents come to pick them up and see a 30 year old playing a joke game?

>>52191211
Aether is another name for winds of magic.

>>52190844
It is a badass line honestly. They need more cool little fluff tidbits like that, especially for the Amnesia-Marines.

>>52190388
>>52190259
>>52190423

Recent releases underscore just how worthless and irrelevant the older armies are as GW refuses to update them

>Stormcast get hawkriders and magical birds but elves don't
>Stormcast get Jezzails but Skaven don't

Now Dwarves steal the steampunk atheistic right from under Skryre whilst the ancient shitty jezzail, globadiers, warplocks, etc rot on the shelves for another 10 years.

Of course everyone will just laugh at the Skryre fans because they are still assravaged by 8th Ed Doomwheels and skitterleaping rocket-engineers kicking their shit in back in fantasy, but if you can't see the problem here then GW has you hooked for good and i don't know what to tell you.

That's three nails in the AoS Skaven coffin.

>>52191263
Because I'm a moron and am going to reply to this, my store timetables certain days for the kids and they basically don't come in on other days until they're closer to being actual people. It shields them from the grognards and regular people from having to explain the rules to a 12 year old every single turn.

This applies to 40k and AoS equally though.

>want to play moonclan
>STILL no plastic squigs

why live senpai

>>52189613
I hate steampunk. It's the worst nerd aesthetic ever.

Why do Fantasy Grognards get so triggered by cool AoS releases? I thought you wee busy with 9th Age? Why care so much about a game you hate and don't play?

>Archaon and Nagash are planning to create their own Sigmarines.

Archaon already had that before AoS was a thing and Nagash really wants everyone's souls.

Real talk the black pyramid's real purpose isto enslave Archaon to kill Sigmar according to prophecy and then Nagash can consume them both

>>52191581
>Stormcast get hawkriders and magical birds but elves don't
What kind of ass-backward argument is that even?
One army has used certain design elements, so it's forbidden for everybody else? Yes, well, orcs were the first to use rough leather armor with metal bits, so nobody else may use them, ever! Undead had skulls on them since forever, so no skulls for anybody else!
Nevermind that a grand total of one unit mounted of birds ever existed for elves in WHFB.

>Stormcast get Jezzails but Skaven don't
They sare the same game design space, sure. Does that mean nobody may ever use sniper weapons ever again? Also, guess what, skaven do it nearly as well for cheaper.
And in terms of visuals the two units are nothing alike.

I can't believe I got this mad at such a stupid post...

>>52191770
That's the Geedubs way with new releases, you're delusional if you think otherwise

Now it's a toss up to see who gets the Assassin aesthetic, Shadowblades or Eshin?

Or maybe Stormcast will suddenly reveal a Ninja-themed chamber next week, at this point who would be surprised?

>>52191924
Old armies are old, news at eleven.

>>52191819
Totally, all those new units are the reason Seraphon, Beastclaw and Tombkings and Skyre are the best armies out there, right?
Oh wait, none of them have any new units at all.
But, hey at least all the new armies can nearly match them.
Oops, I forgot, Fyreslayers, Ironjaws and Bloodbound are all kinda garbage.
I guess that means you are full of shit.

Wait. The Steampunk Dwarves are actually SKY steampunk dwarves?

And GW said Squats was never coming back.

Fuck yea.

>>52189688
I do.

>>52191924
>last skaven release: Thanquol, Stormfiends

>>52191977
>Seraphon, Beastclaw and Tombkings and Skyre are the best armies out there, right?
None of them in the top now.TK was goid ehen GHB released, but nw they are useless against Sylvsneths, new SCE, Tzeench battletomes.
But I meant fluff-wise.

>>52191961
Then why are they featured in modern publications and yet Tomb kings are arbitrarily removed

Why is it okay to propagate the false hope that these armies will one day be supported? who would willingly eat such shit and much less defend it

>>52191977

I thought Ironjawz were pretty stronk?

>>52192030
..are you having a stroke, anon?

>>52192036
In a casual environment, yes. Above that, fuck no. They are monobuild as can be and super predicable.

>>52192035
>Why is it okay to propagate the false hope that these armies will one day be supported?

Only retards have that hope. They are in the game only because GW has the sense of not squatting the entire range from a day to the next.

The best you can hope is a beastclaw, flesheaters or bonesplitterz update.

>>52192044
Wut?

>>52189613
Every new model, AoS looks more like Warcraft. I thought the point of AoS and WHFB was to create a setting that had a separate aesthetic, not trick gullible dorks into buying models thinking they're getting something from WoW.

>>52189688
Not really.

As the game ages there's going to end up being a best faction to each alliance. Everything else will just be chaff.

>>52192030
Fluff-wise means jack shit, since whoever's battletome it is will be the top-dog. Not to mention most Stormcast during Allgates got their asses handed to them.
TK are still good as of now since the GHB 2.0 is still a ways out and we don't know which changes will stick while Seraphon, Skyre and Beastclaw are unchanged and as strong as ever.
Meanwhile Tzeentch has like two good builds that pray to the high heavens the enemy has no way to teleport or similar and the best SC tactics got nerfed like mad.

>>52192108
And Fantasy is still dead. Thanks for the bump.

That's not an Age of Sigmar release.

>>52192067
>Only retards have that hope. They are in the game only because GW has the sense of not squatting the entire range from a day to the next.

So playing older armies is worthless, buy the new shit or fuck off is the basic gist of AoS.

Because..?
But okay, what about style-wise?

>So playing older armies is worthless, buy the new shit or fuck off is the basic gist of AoS.

Absolutely not. We new army players love to fight older and shitty armies. You are not worthless, your contribution and suffering make the game a lot more fun!

>>52192197
Demigryph Knights? Landsknechts? Handgunners? Halberdiers? SCE have none of those.
Or do you mean in terms of playstyle? Because Freeguild play nothing like SCE.

>>52192207
It's an endtimes release, so at that point its fucking semantics, because they sure as hell knew what was going to happen after the endtimes.

>>52192197
>Like what freeguild have what SCE doesn't have?

Absolutely everything except gryphon riders and some common weapon options like sword and shield, bows and crossbow ? They don't have much in common as armies.

As I said, everything else that is not demygryph, bowmen, crossbowmen and sword and board dudes, and the last three it's a big stretch since while the weapon option is similar they are completely different in everything else.

General, greatswords, pistoliers, outriders, general on gryphon, guard with every options that is not sword and board, handgunners.

And SC have nothing similar to everythings in the Ironweld arsenal and Collegiate arcane which are basically the same faction.

Painted my very first SC. I tried to use Duncan' tutorial on the Emperor's sword to get a flaminf sword and it turned out like shit so went back to dark metal. Kinda tempted to try and make the next sword volcanic like the base and shield, but I fear it'll end up looking like a club.

C&C always welcome, but do note that I know I missed highlights on the armour.

I'm thinking about trying to make them yellow, like burning eyes (you might have noticed a slight fire theme in there), but fuck me these are tiny, SM eyes are toddler challenges in comparison.

I'll probably make the pauldrons white as well, I wasn't sure about it to be honest, but fuck it, I love BT anyway.

Great idea with the shield! That said, the shield and the ground make the rest look a little underwhelming, to be honest. The white doesn't do the mini any favors, either. Have you considered maybe applying the same effect to the sword, assuming that even works size-wise?
Also, I'd reduce the size of the picture in the future a little. It looks better when the image is not quite that inflated.

Okay I will try to explain.
If in game 1k points Freeguilds vs SCE wins Freeguild lore-wise (rule-wise it will be a miracle) it would look stupid since SCE can do all what Freeguilds but much better.

What the fuck does that have to do with anything, Anon?

They still won, regardless of "SCE can do everything they can, but much better".

The fuck is your argument, here?

>>52192796
I did actually! Not sure it'll work since the sword is smaller than anything else I tried it on, and I hope it won't deform it too much. I'll try it on the next one.

Have to admit the white doesn't sit right in the scheme yeah. Maybe bright yellow? I'm thinking about tryint the lava effect on the pauldrons as well.

>>52192053

> Like GW kicked your ass.

I dunno' anon, you're the one paying exorbitant prices for this shit.

You do know even the designers think it's a joke, a designer at an open day was in tears of laughter over people taking the game seriously.

>>52192889
>They still won,
Yeah, mechanically, but this victory doesn't fit the setting.
>The fuck is your argument, here?
>SCE can do all what Freeguilds but much better.

>>52192910
Bright yellow or a bold orange might work very well, yeah. I'd also add that to the crest.
And the idea with the pauldrons is a solid one. They offer enough space and should break up the monotony of the scheme nicely

>>52192944
>but this victory doesn't fit the setting.

What does this even mean, Anon?

>>52192944
>this victory doesn't fit the setting.

Yeah, because you have freeguilds fighting Stormcast in the first place, which are faction on the same side.

>>52192645
The shield and mini itself don't look like they belong together.

The base sorely need more physical depth to it, just painting the cracks there won't cut it.

One thing to keep in mind as well is that "special effects" painting, like the cracked crust over molten magma here, need to be done really well to work, otherwise it just falls flat on its face. It's very unforgiving, and you're not there yet by a long shot I'm afraid. The shield almost looks like old, dried and cracked leather as much as anything else.

Also very little to create any interest in the figure itself. Colour scheme is in dire need of accents.

>>52192967
>What does this even mean, Anon?
You cannot explain this victory from the fluff size of question, since SCE have the same units as freeguilds but with sigmarines instead of regular human.

>>52192944
People kick the SCEs' asses all the fucking time in the lore, so what are you going on about? I don't think anybody has gotten their asses kicked quite as often as the Stormcast.
Naked orcs kicked their ass, shitty ghouls kicked their ass, all manner of skaven kicked their asses, various flavor of chaos worshippers kicked their asses, even unguided zombie beasts kicked their asses, the list goes on.

>>52192972
>which are faction on the same side.
The Freeguild army couldn't switch to Chaos or just be renegates?

>>52192987
>Oh hey, look those 20 stormcast got their faces beaten in by like 200 freeguild soldiers.
There, done.

>>52192987
Some shitty goat herders beat both America and the USSR.

The same shitty goat herders beat the fucking British Empire back when they were a thing.

>>52192987
Freeguilds have also more than two or three times the numbers. You can take 16 freeguild bowmen for every 5 SC ones.

Asked this in the last thread just before it died:

What's a good number of heroes / battleline / behemoths / other ratio for a Nurgle Mortal army at 1000 points?

Slaves to Darkness are very battleline/core unit heavy, Rotbringers are very hero heavy

>>52193037
>>52193042
So what? Fluff-wise they should at 1k to 1 ratio at least

>>52193038
Because none of them didn't try to fuck up goatfuckers really hard.

>>52192412
>need to keep your General next to your Jezzails instead of where it's useful
>can only use Lord of War once per turn on one unit

Inb4 make the Jezzails your General, because you then lose out on having a General with General Ability.

It's not going to take long until this fucking game is nothing but Stormcast vs Stormcast. Everyone will have lost interest in armies that aren't Stormcast due to no support.

>>52193062
A few dozen Ghouls have killed a whole bunch of Stormcasts, Anon.

Stormcasts are not Space Marines, they are not ridiculously OP in fluff.

>>52193074
Yeah, I'm sure the USSR weren't trying to fuck them up, really hard.

>>52192987
This has to be the single most stupid argument I've ever read in these threads. And belive you me, we've had some *really* stupid posts in the past 1.5 years.
Disregarding the thing about the same units because that's clearly bullshit, how would you ever explain a victory over, say, chaos warriors by empire soldiers? After all, they both fight in melee and obviously the chaos warriors are the better fighters...

>>52193078
>Stormcasts are not Space Marines
They are.
>they are not ridiculously OP in fluff.
That's why they could be killed only by BBEG and his persknal mlp guard, while the 90% rest of the setting cannot even defeat them.

>>52192108

Yup. GW sold out. Everything looks fucking stupid nowadays.

>>52193111
They can be killed.

They just come back, a little less of a person.

I don't count turning into a flesh robot if I die a plus..

>>52193074
USSR were notoriously lenient over there, yeah. Well known fact.
And the British even more so.

>>52193096
>Disregarding the thing about the same units because that's clearly bullshit
Because you say it?
>After all, they both fight in melee and obviously the chaos warriors are the better fighters...
But Empire have much more zrtillery and ranged units, not to mention they have higher discipline and tactic.

This is going to happen every single time a new "faction" comes out isnt it? The same old wfb grognards will sperg out over how shit it is and how wfb aesthetic was better. Their butthurt is eternal. New dwarfs look cool. I doubt their going to be updating any of the old factions though instead making new factions. Not really bothered by this.

Why only now people are seeing that aos was a shift in look and design and getting assblasted by it 2 years later i dont know. I think wfb players just want to get upset.

Also the 10% left is clearly composed by the other Stormcast, so basically any enemy can't even touch them.

Lolwut? My exactly point was that freeguild should be removed or redesigned from the game because picture Empire/Dwarves/Elves as actual forces in AoS setting looks stupid.

Also you should just stop. We get it, your ass is so sore from SC pounding that you can't keep from crying about them on this thread. But it's how the things are right now. You should just stop playing your shitty empire army and start an actual good army.

I could almost get behind some of the models, but by and large it's just all such garbage.

>Recursive filter

Not a native english speaker, what does that mean? I know we can use filters and all, but recursive?

I just wish a janitor would ban him already.

I agree that death is a hard alliance to make new material for, since they've covered the basics (skellies, vampires, etc) but I think death should get a rule similar to orks old looted gear. You can field any model as an undead version of itself provided you:

Have a necromancer there to keep it animated (maybe give necromancers mastery levels like 40k to denote how strong a creature they can bind) . For example: any necromancer can summon undead clanrats but only a powerful necromancer or unit of lesser could maintain an undead mawkrusha.

The undead unit would take a hit to its stats, lose all allegiance specific bonuses and be granted the keyword of the necromancer controlling it (such as death rattle or nighthaunt). The stat hits could be things like reduced health, worse to hits, worse save, shorter wounded tables etc.

What do you guys think?

One Hero and one other unit can garrison
a Watchtower. Models cannot enter a
building garrisoned by the enemy.

do so, set it up so that all models from the

If it's like a Watchtower it means it work like mobile cover while at the same time giving the unit inside more mobility.

Thx.... Here the slightly improved version without the glitches. It was a pleasure, /tg/. See ya!

Not drawanon, but anyone noticed the KEK on the shield and the "/tg/" on his chest?

cant stop laughing at these new releases tbqh, GW has truly lost it

The trick is to go pre-20th and when you have useless indigs, just kill them all.

Why can't we get a game in Aos setting?

>>52195357

Because it's a setting that anyone can reproduce with the same 15 minutes GW spent on it, not worth licensing.

>>52195475
As if Warhammer Fantasy was any more original.

I wanna see how they do, REEEEE

https://spikeybits.com/2017/03/gw-repeals-online-shopping-cart-ban-for-american-retailers.html

From 3 May 2017 direct Trade Accounts of Games Workshop, and retailers purchasing from Authorized Distributors (together being “Retailers”) will be able to sell Games Workshop products (“Products”) through webstores, third party portals and auction sites (at an instant purchase price only).

I like it, I try to buy from gw to support them but letting other retailers offer online lroducts is a good move.

Really enjoying this new direction

>>52195852
Original? No, Developed? Fuck yes.

Anyone know how to play Brayherds? From what I'm seeing it's a big melee rush army with a lot of synergy involved.

What are some of the weaknesses in the army and how can I plug them up?

I want to run a mainly infantry army for ease of transport so hopefully these are the guys.

>A 30 year old setting is more developed than one 2 years old.

YOU DON'T SAY

>>52196384
I do infact say, so the old franchise has inherent PR whit the new one does not.

Why pay for the lesser IP.

Do you think I could proxy these as hexwraiths?

He was letting you down gently, what he meant to say was...

"Because AoS 'lore' a shit."

Because they don't like long games?

How viable would an army of pure troggoths be?

>>52196532
>>52196517
Put them on a horse, yes.
Otherwise, no.

>>52196530
I disagree.

>>52196428
>>52196530
funny that the game is about the most cancerous part of fantasy

LOL

>>52196553
Not very. But it'd look cool.

>>52196572
What if I put them on cavalry bases and modeled them to be floating slightly higher.

move to the new thread
