Funnily enough, Vargheists are generally better than Crypt Horrors or Flayers. Better than Horrors with movement and rend, better than Flayers because their effectiveness doesn't hinge on the opponent having <7 bravery.

Thunder blitz is a useless trap (I know because I bought it).
Can't use the formation in matched play. Can't use the giant with just your Ironjaws in matched play either...
Keep your boss near the brutes for rerolls.
Wierdnob will not have enough boyz around to have a good chance for Foot of Gork. So just mystic shield all the time.
Gore Gruntas suck. Send around a flank and charge single characters or other REALLY WEAK shit. I have had 10 man plague monk units beat the shit out of a 3 man unit.... it's pathetic really.
Giant... throw it forward it might do something who knows.

Thanks for the other advice. I've heard Gore-Gruntas are really bad. It makes me almost want to forego the Start Collecting! and just buy the Ardboyz and Warchanter.

Having one unit in the army isn't too bad, if only for having one unit that isn't chained to a hero to move faster than 4 inches a damn turn.
Any more than that and you are hurting yourself.
And be careful with Hardboyz. They are another trap. Take two units of them as screens and objective campers. But their damage output is weak (and they need constant warchanter buffs to get decent).
Brutes are your money makers. Always take claws. Ten orruk brutes squads, with warchanter, megaboss, and mystic shield kill everything... but they live or die on battle shock. Risk a WAAGH only if you charge two things you absolutely NEED to kill. In every other circumstance- the brutes really need the inspiring presence

Check the AoS app. They have added the Lichepriest to the Deathmage faction, and most of the skeleton lines of the Tomb Kings to the Death Rattle. Notable exceptions being that none of the name characters, nor the reanimates have been added.

Although, just checking the Freepeoples does make me question whats going on, as a lot of their old hero's and Brettonian units got added to that as well.

Yup. 10 each.
They get no bonus for more guys so keep them at ten (no idea why..) Also ONLY banner of plus 2 bravery. Once they get in combat they tend to sit around and make your enemy kill every. Last. One.
I know the feels though anon. I love all the new Ironjaw models... it's just they feel so Damn constricted with their lack of ANY battle line the SECOND you take anything not ironjaw...
A Maw Crusha fits into a 2000 point list pretty well. Under that, and you are hurting ourselves on either lack of units, or lack of bluffing hero's (warchanter, wierd nob). I love the model, but he should definitely be 450 points at max. Maybe even 400.

a person who wants future releases? Because, lets be honest. GW didn't keep those armies around because they plan to update them, they kept them around to not lose ALL the fantasy players.

So why all the hate for the clans? And why call them "Reddit rats"? I actually got into warhammer after some friends got me to play vermintide, which was what introduced me to my ratkin, and I got the sc pestilens soon after it released (good timing). One thing I love about the rats is that, especially for pestilens, just don't give a shit about the war around them. They just want to watch the world rot and brew their plagues (I love how they stab nurgle in the back).

>>52265594
Ok, first off all there is the obvious connection between well poisoning and clan
pestilence. Now if that link isn't strong enough for you the religious link is enforced
by making them plague monks. Who engage in biological warfare.

The next obvious one is the sneaky aspect. Jewish stereotypes are often sneaky and
cunning. betraying their fellow man and doing anything to advance themselves.
Now isn't that just clan eshin and regular Skaven politcal culture?

The next obvious link is the stereotype of the gold obsessed Jew. Now what
substance are are Skaven obsessed with? Warpstone! Duh... They will do anything
for it as the Jewish stereotype. Do you seen any other race so obsessed with a
substance? and do you see any other stereotype so obsessed with a substance? I
think not.

Jews have beards. And rats have fur.... Possible link there.

The older Jewish stereotype is that Jews live in flea infested slums. And the Skaven
live in lairs. And lairs does not imply sanitation. As a matter of fact they dwell in
sewers! Much like Jews hiding from the Gestapo.

Now compare the icon above all of your standard bearers. It is a triangle! Just add
one more and you have got the star of David!

Ok the Skaven are monotheistic, believing only in the horned rat. they have their
council of 13... ...or more like the council of Zion!

Case and point
>>
>>52265624
Garbage.
Skaven originate from not-italy.
Skaven are prone to running away, machiavellian politics, murder and backstabbing like italians.
They have an elite unit called Stormvermin.
They use a 3 spoked swastika rune among their many runes.
Stormvermin have a roman design.
All tunnels (roads) lead to Skavenblight (Rome)
They have crazy divinci inventions.
Skaven women are just for breeding.

And so on.
>>
>>52265713
They use poison gas warfare like ww1 Germans.
>>
>>52265713
I think there is more evidence for heeb than wop.
- Vile, backstabbing cunts

- Anti-semitic propaganda frequently compares Jews to rats

I did my second introductory game against some guy with a competitive list in AoS for 1k points for a league here. He was skaven and I was stormcast. I only had 3 units of liberators, 1 squad of retributors, 1 prosecutors(celestial hammers), lord celestant, and one more hero that I cant remember. I got wiped out by mortal wounds and some stupid wheel of doom. It was going good until dude basically wrecked my army with the doom wheel and then I was done. Was the list I played even any good? It was supplied to me by the GW store owner since I only own 40k guys. Also would this be a decent indicator of an experience with dwarves? I was thinking of getting the new guys since I love their models so much

>Playing Samecast Eternals
You lost because your army is shit and your taste is shit.

Pretty bad list sempai, especially if the Skaven player was running heavy Can Skyre, which I can only assume due to the DOOMWHEEL and mortal wound output. Stormcast's work best when utilizing their huge toolbox of tools, weapons and abilities to their advantage. However, in straight up fights, Stormcast are really only good at soaking up damage, and quite a few units can be quite pillowfisted unfortunately. But all Stormcast need to be competitive is to move beyond your basic starter box set. Pick a playstyle, and build up to it.

>Implying anyone gives a shit about anti-semitism when literally every race has been discriminated against

>>
>>52265816
Don't listen to the other anon. Here's the thing: Stormcast have artefacts that lets them save vs. mortal wounds. On a 6+, but still. Skaven are great at putting out mortal wounds, so you need to know how to play your army.

Stormcasts have a tool called scions of the storm, and plenty of high mobility units. On the other hand, their units are pretty expensive, though tanky vs. normal wounds.

I'd say when you are up against high mortal wounds army, keep your dudes off the table or spread them out so they can't bomb everything out in turn 1. Keep a bunch of guys off the table and deepstrike in to troubleshoot the table.

Skaven needs to get close to drop mortal wounds, and their artillery are fairly squishy.

Honestly any size 1000+. I've played 2k games. I played a 2v2 where all players bring 2k points. I played a bunch of 1k games or 2k games but 2v2 where each player brings 1k. I've done weird games like yesterday I played a game where it was a 3v3 and each play brought about 1600 points and pretty much it wasn't asshole army list time it was allowed (a play only had bret knights and dark elf cold ones and malekith. Clearly not battle line, but w/e it was allowed.) The game feels pretty well balanced outside of a few armies (stormcast, sylvaneth to name a few) but we will see once more stuff comes out and battletomes are released. Most games of Sigmar i've had have been a good time, though I am an individual that can get quite heated over stupid shit, or can feel sour over an opponent bringing literally uncounterable stuff.

Their troops are quite tough so they'll actually survive any slog they have to make to enemy gunlines, something that not all melee armies can boast.

The main reason though is their god-like shooting. In a mob of 20+, each arrow boy will make three shots at 18" range, 5+ to hit, 4+ to wound, - rend (-1 vs monsters) and 1 damage. Not particularly accurate, but with so many shots they don't have to be.

When a human dies a heroic death of some sort, Sigmar scoops up their soul before Nagash gets his clammy mits on it.
That soul is then 'reforged', i.e. a new body is made from scratch and the soul is poured into it. That body is styled after the perfect human image, but is still very much human.
When they die, they turn into lighting and blast back to Azyr to be reforged again. They still bleed, get sick, hunger and die like any other human.
>>
>>52271689
Oh so reforged means remade out of meat into a human?
I thought the soul was just stuck in a new suit of armor (hence the name reforge)
>>
>>52271674
Pray to god your opponent doesn't have teleports, fast powerhouses or a lot of ranged wallop.
Because either will send your list packing in a hurry.
>>
>>52271704
It's called reforge because the core of the Stormcast is based around remaking the soul to be better able to fight for Sigmar.
It also refers to the fact that the bodies are made from the remains of the Old World, which are reforged into a human body by various means.
>>
>>52271674
Eternal Starhost is a trap. Guard are absurdly weak to mortal wounds. If your opponents are a bunch of khornetards you'll be fine but any competent opponent will absolutely demolish your line of guard with a small amount of mortal wounds. You will not get the D3 damage attacks unless your opponent is retarded.

A mix of Guard and Warriors is better than just having Guard.

Another reason that ES sucks is that the Eternity Warden is not that good of a melee hero, his only value is adding 1 attack to each guard but it has a very small range (5") and he is easy to kill because he doesn't ignore Rend-1. The best thing about an Eternity Warden is his ability to take wounds for a Slann, but Slann are not worth using in competitive games. You are better off taking a Sunblood because he does a ton of damage and ignores Rend-2.

1 priest is not reliable enough. Either bring a 2nd priest or bring a Starseer and use insight to reroll the celestial rites.

10 Chameleon Skinks is too much. 5 is enough. You dont bring chameleons to kill heroes, you bring them to kill artillery crew and secure open objectives and 5 is enough to do that.

You need 2-3 salamanders to punch through heavy armor units like Treelords.

You need an Astrolith Bearer.

They're the soldiers of an oligarchy rising out of the fiery hellscape of Aqshy, the sprawling metropolis built around and over a volcanic furnace that is rumored to have been built by Grungni himself. Masters of blackpowder and engineering, their artificial defenses and the city's natural defenses kept the waves of Chaos at bay though the city's allegiance to Sigmar waned in his absence and slowly theologians began to give praise instead to artifice itself. Their patron was simply a mask for Chaos, however, as the city continued to produce instruments of war and carnage. Dark sorcery, crazed brilliance, and warpfire forges gave a horrific semblance of life to daemon-engines down in the searing foundries.

tl;dr: Chaos Renegades + Freeguild, inspired entirely by pic related

Army itself is mostly hypothetical, though I do now have pretty much the entire thing sourced other than some conversion work that I'll probably have to simply work out by getting both kits and seeing how to smash it together. Those two being fusing a Maulerfiend/Forgefiend with a Steam Tank. Rest of the line is Perry Miniatures Revolutionary War Brits, though with Outriders/Pistoliers mounted on Chaos Marauder horses and Demigryphs on Chaos Knight horses. Oh, and Guard as linemen with swords and probably pavises though I might go with Chaos Warrior or Marauder shields.

Also, lul. Just doing the math. Using British Legion cavalry mounted on Chaos Knight horses along with some Marauder shields ends up giving me a unit of six Daemonsteed Knights for $38.5 instead of $109 for the chickens. Hell, the Southern Army deal combined with the necessary Shield and Horse bits to to dress up some Guard and cavalry costs $187 for what would cost $679 if I bought it through Games Workshop.

Either take the army and play 9th or KoW with your friends, or pick someone else and play AoS. But TK are fucking fossils. I love my Empire of Dust, but I understand that Settra's gone. And frankly, I'm sort of happy for it, too. Settra was a real fucking OG badass. Seeing him in the Mortal Realms would just feel pathetic.

I actually don't own any TK - new to Fantasy/AoS with Vampire Counts/Death/everything else, but Settra's an OG boss of WHF and there's no reason for him not to make an eventual return considering you have Nulahmia - that goes for all Tomb Kings style minis. I still think they'll be back, just different. I think people just want their aesthetic back most of all. Look at how small Death is atm, it needs a booster shot big time.

Stormcast are pretty cool imo but i agree, i would like to see humans on the table. I mean humans in the lore get more and more pathetic, basically taking the role of sheep that need protection. What about a faction of "noble" or ragtag humans that didn't give a fuck about chaos or Sigmar and somehow still survived the end times? My problem with the free people's is that i hate the damn renaissance striped pajamas. Ditch the British striped pajamas and go for something akin to the Spanish renaissance soldiers with leathers, jackets and armor plates.

because:
- all rook da same
- literally space marines
- even the same sound the same so people cant tell the difference between protectors, prosecutors, judicators, fagmaballators etc
- took badass demigryph knights but replaced the human on top with a spacemarine so real (empire) demigryphs are fucking useless
- celestant prime is a fagget
- their RANGED UNIT... wth BOWS... has fucking PLATE ARMOR. Why does your archer unit have the same equipment as your front line defenders? I get it for lore, but they shouldn't even exist. All ranged units in Samecast army should have been free peoples to A) blend the army into order and the existing factions and B) give some variety to the shitty golden necron spacemarines
- My friend has sucked 93 dicks and even he says that Stormcast are more gay than he is.
- The good guys are supposed to be the underdogs for it to be interesting, not the most powerful basic fuckin guy. IG are cool because they are just men against aliens and super humans. Stormcast are at the top of the totem pole from the start. Even a chaos warrior cant step.

Age of Sigmar is 40k's unification wars.

AoS mentions other planets, they got space station sigmar, metal star dragon flying to the machine world or something or other.
In 40k, Sol system was trapped in a warp storm for like 5k years. Emperor united Earth among the Waring tribes. Made a deal with Mars. Then built the space marines. The warp storms stopped and then the great crusade happend.
There really isn't much more fluff regarding the unification wars. Its fairly old fluff.

The warhammer world was earth. Basically what happened is that warp storm errupted, earth became a demon world, the warp gates were put at the poles. And the old world had its day. Then the end times happened, the world got sucked into the warp, got pushed back out, AoS stuff happened. etc...
The time is fickle because it all goes different in the warp. Sol system was cut off from galaxy for 5k years but in the warp bubble that could be 10's of thousands.

And the inconsistancies with the old world and the old ones and putting the gates up doesn't matter - they will never explain it, that's why they blew it up.
And it will be years before you see concrete official cannon saying that AoS is the unification wars. They are keeping it vague for a reason. They will probably never even mention the word Earth or Mars. The whole genre is mythological story telling so they will never break from that.

I mean, that's basically what MUH DUDES >>52272097 are, an independent faction of incredibly heretical renegade daemon-smiths living the Realm of Fire and modeled with British Redcoats from Revolutionary War lines.

Sigmar is a false god and Chaos offers nothing but destruction, thus they turn to the God Machine which promises an eternity of perfection.

I hope too but I doubt it will be very soon. Most likely we will wait up until summer's end to get new stuff for the updated armies, maybe a kit more or two since the remaining forces to update are, with the exception of Seraphon,very limited forces.

>Eternal Starhost is a trap. Guard are absurdly weak to mortal wounds. If your opponents are a bunch of khornetards you'll be fine but any competent opponent will absolutely demolish your line of guard with a small amount of mortal wounds. You will not get the D3 damage attacks unless your opponent is retarded.

He'll get the d3 attacks in in second or third rounds of combat at least, and as long as hes not taking a ton of mortals, hes likely to get it.

Taking eternal to a tournament is a pretty fair choice, because there are a lot of armies it will be rediculously good against. Especially backed up by priests.

I've stopped playing Warhammer 10 years ago but I'll get into the hobby again with those sweet new dorfs. I don't like the colour scheme GW used I think I'll roll with some nice blue or white or even try out stripes and squares on those guys.

>>52275239
The Sylvaneth or Tzeentch Arcanites doesn't have that much kit, so I can see them releasing only an updated battletome like the Khornian one.

Sylvaneth, Beastclaw Raiders and Bonesplitterz before that were fine, too. The only difference being that they didn't incorporate multiple subfactions.

>>52275824
The Sylvaneth one already had specific abilities and artefacts, iirc, as it was released just before the General's Handbook. So I can see them update just the ones before them.

Ah ok perhaps you're right.

>>52277270
Yeah, 5+ mortal wounds from the Boss whose damage is bumped to 2 from the Shaman certainly seems pretty good. They could definitely benefit from a single battalion that gives them a Totally-Not-Ghoul-Patrol. Fits with the fluff and would do wonders to be able to shit out some spiderboys from board edges as you play.

I'm guessing you basically just run Boss, Shaman, and three units of 10 Spider Riders at 1k, and then just more Shaman and Riders at 2k?

A potential new player here. I've been looking at the growing model range of AoS and finally decided to ask some difficult questions that had been holding me from jumping in.

I really like the models but I wouldn't want to spend a lot in one go as big loads of plastic crush my motivation to paint them. Instead would it be possible for me to buy some chaos boxed sets like Blightkings or start collecting add some 3rd party models that look like they would fit (barbarians / spawns/ big deamons) and play slightly bigger games while adding more in expectations for a Slanesh/Nurgle battle tome?

What is the communities reaction to 3rd party models exactly? I take that your 9th age counterparts have no problem with them but how is AoS in that regard?

What type of table is the game played on? Particulary interested in size and terrain density.
