With the GHB2 appearing in next weeks white dwarf do you reckon we might get a new army release to go with it? I know theres still a bunch of 40k releases yet to come so we could be faced with atleast another three weeks of it.
Any chance they'll stop this dry spell with some new models with the book?

>>54134331
I hope for some new models but wouldn't they already tease anything for a GHB2-related release?

>>54134356
Depends on the release date I guess, after the 40k starter kits and vehicles drop we hopefully could see something then. I wouldn't mind another dual kit like the Tzaangors, Mortarion is coming eventually could be an opportunity there

Going to ask again since I want some more opinions on it before I order anything from FW. Whats the general opinion on the Carmine Dragon?

From what I can see, it seems to be pretty fucking costly and I'm not sure it's 100% worth it. The model, however, looks fucking amazing so I'm still tempted to pick it up.

>>54134520

How does one maximize projectile mortal wounds in a chaos army? Not counting any Demon models mind you. Khorne/Nurgle in front and Tzeentch in the back.

>>54134520
dont do it because it'll give you an edge in the game but because you want the hobby and will enjoy painting and putting it together

>I wouldn't mind another dual kit like the Tzaangors,

GW fucked up big time not making these guys a 40k Troop and also a Rotbringers Battle-line like they did with Tzaangor

I guess we can hope for Pestigor (Nurgle battle-tome when?)

>>54134520
If it looks cool, get it.
If it 'might not be worth it' is code for 'I think I could be SLIGHTY more points efficient with generic choice a so I'm on the fence' you are literally this games cancer. Kys.

does slambo have points? picked him up when he came out (don't actually know why >.>) and just built him now. Thinking of making a list of him, the forge world sorcerer+spawn and a mix of khorne and tzeentch deamons+mortals.

Yeah, but first of all I have to stop being a poorfag and then I can spend my money on lewd pics.

In mentioning poorfagness - would you be okay with someone using 40k orks in AoS? I was thinking about start playing 40k and greenskinz seem to be perfect for having fun with kitbashing but I have mixed feeling about fielding orks armed with sluggas and shootas as ardboyz

>>54136781
I'd say unless you somehow convert the shootas into AoS appropriate firearms, i'd stay away from those. all the other parts should be fine, minus bioniks

>>54136781
I'd say just avoid the guns and bioniks, they're almost identical otherwise (especially older editions)

Hey anons, I'm new to AoS but do like 40k etc. I've been eyeing Archaon and some Varanguard as a small AoS collection.

Are they pretty cool/fun to play or play against? I like the sculpts but am worried they'll just be big damage sponges or something.

Also, about how many makes an army?

>>54140897

I'd say one of the start collecting boxes would be a good starter army.

File: matched play.png (828KB, 1155x707px) Image search: [Google]

828KB, 1155x707px

>>54140897
Those kits are pretty expensive both money and point wise, if you're wanting to play matched play that is. Archaon is 700pts and the Varanguard are 300pts meaning you couldn't play them in a game at 1000pts or lower. Picture related its the matched play unit specifications.

But if you just wanted to grab them cause you liked the sculpts and thought they'd be fun to build go for it, but for that price you could build a much bigger army, or for the same amount of models save some money.

Sadly not, its not very well written but its Sword and Shield or Flails.

>>54141290
Well, they have same status as Orks Start Collecting so I think it's just about the reboxing (painboy has lost the HQ role so GW has to change stuff inside the box)

>>54141290

Well christ thank god. My only real beef is that trolls arent called trolls but i may just put together that small goblin army i have been thinking of for years. Mainly due to not needing a stupid amount of cash or minis anymore.

Oh lawdy. Is 1000 pts pretty standard or is it all locally dependent?

>>54141467
I would say it's a standard format. You just picked a faction that is based on the biggest fuckin model and fat cavalry. Other factions are not so expensive - look at the Nurgle Daemons. Their start collecting has 500pts so a lazy 2x SC! box based army has 34 models

>>54141241
Aye, its marauders; thank you!
>>54141196
Thank you as well, sorry I was not correctly specific.

Hey Anons new Dwarf player here. Will these models >>54136884 allow me to play 1v1 with my fiance? Will the armies be too small?

>>54141467
Standard is 2000 points. Idk what they play in your local store for casual games, but every significant event is 2k.

You could at least attempt to look for it yourself.

Anyway, any old Dwarf Lord/Thane model will do for Warden King as well, nobody will really care that it doesn't have a shield and hand weapon.

>>54139705
Morathi, Vallaya may or may not be alive but she is worshipped by the Kharadron. The twin souled God is mentioned in the Everchosen battletome

>>54140852
Nope, just "Coming Soon".

Nowadays, Warhammer Community seems to get the new content first. There is nothing in this months WD that wasn't posted there first.

>>54142075
What ruleset does this guy use? I ask because I couldn't find a Warden king profile in the link. Sorry if these are stupid questions this is my first day.

>>54142156
Scroll down slightly, on the right hand side of the description, there should be some tabs. It is on "Rules" by default.
Click the link to open the PDF.

https://www.games-workshop.com/resources/PDF/AoS_Warscrolls/aos-warscroll-warden-king-en.pdf

Something else you can do if you have a smart phone is download the Age of Sigmar app. Every models rules are available on there, even out of production models.
On that note, you can find the "Compendium" which has out of production model rules here:
https://www.games-workshop.com/resources/PDF/AoS_Compendiums/warhammer-aos-dwarfs-en.pdf

All of the models in that battleline box survived the cut, so you likely wont have to look through the compendium often, but if you do get your hands on some older models it could be useful.

>>54142242
Thanks. This is awesome. Quick question will these be enough models for two players to play with just this box?

>>54142503
If you use the Skirmish rules, then it is more than enough, you can just split the Longbeards, Warriors and Thunderers/Quarrellers in half (Artillery can't be used in Skirmish though).
https://www.games-workshop.com/en-GB/Age-of-Sigmar-Skirmish-ENG-2017

In normal AoS, not really, no. It will be a bit lop sided.

Skirmish is a sub-game that lets you play with less models. Rather than acting as a unit, each model acts on its own.

>>54142084
Was Morathi ever directly stated to be a god?

Vallaya is worshipped by the Kharadron?

Yes, Y'ulea read that on several forum posts about that battletome.

Worship or not, Vallaya was destroyed during the End Times. Neferata and crew defeated Thorek Ironbrow and crew at her tomb and did work. That is unless she somehow acquired plot armor.

Thanks for the advice. DESU I understand what you're getting at when you say to collect what you think looks cool rather than what works but I don't really want to spend $150+ on a model that is only there to look pretty. I already play Fyreslayers/Warherds as my main two armies, I'm not exactly someone running 27 Skyfires in a friendly game.

>>54142869
One of the origin stories for why people in the World-That-Was are in the Mortal Realms, is because the memories embodied in Mallus were turned real by their conjoined hatred for Chaos. Vallaya could've been brought that way, and I think Josh Reynolds has implied that's how some of the other incarnates have been brought back to life, like Nagash.

On the other hand Grungni might've just reminded the Duardin that she existed and wanted them to worship her memory.

Either way there are also Daugthers of Khaine and I think the GA book stated that Khaine has not been resurrected.

Can we stop this? This has been proven to be false as older ranges have gotten battletomes and reboxes, like Beastclaw Raiders and Bonesplitterz, while other factions received a whole bunch of new models, like Sylvaneth and Ironjawz.

The infantry is in the dispossed faction, the artillery in the ironweld arsenal faction. You can play them as a Grand Alliance Order army, and add anything you like from the Order Grand Alliance. Check the General's Handbook for magic items, points, etc. You can also use the Dwarf compendium rules that the other anon's linked, it's basically the same thing.

On that note, GW could have given us so much peace of mind if they had just shared which factions would be included in GBH 2.0. Then again, speculation is also more people talking about it, so there's that.

I'm glad you're hype about Ironjawz, they are a cool faction but you went about this in the worst way with very poor timing. The fact you've done this twice before should have taught you something dude.

No one to blame but yourself. Try getting about 800 pts built and head to your LGS/GW get some small practice games in

I have always restricted myself to buying a box or two and not allowing myself to purchase any other models until what i've bought is painted up and based

That said my community is the kind who paints their armies, you rarely see a grey model on the table, so it always fosters that drive to finish what you start.

>>54156425
10 Stormvermin is always going to be near-worthless

They are fragile, outnumber nothing but heroes and monsters, they get shot once and half the unit could die, any war machine designed to hit 10+ models will wreck them, they lose the bravery bonus immediately and if the enemy can kill like 5 the battleshock takes care of the rest. 20 Stormvermin minimum or don't bother you need to outnumber what you're fighting.

20 Clanrats is cheaper and has some bodies to lose, put IP on them and have them protect the lines and important units

Total: 1420/2000

I was thinking about buying a Start Collecting box for a Screaming Bell (260) and Warp Lightning Cannon (180) and buy a single Doomwheel (140). It would give me exactly 2000/2000 list.

An old LGS in my area is dying and it is selling its last shit for 50%. It still has Stormvermin boxes and Lightning Cannons.
The question is - should I drop the idea of buying Start Collecting and instead buy 3 cannons? The SC! box costs 200 bananas in my country while LGS is selling Cannons for 44 bananas per box. I would save nearly 70 bananas and buy a doomwheel to swap with one cannon for fun sometimes or use it in skirmish games. Or maybe the Screaming Bell is so fuckin amazing that I should grab a SC! box, sell the monks and use it with a single cannon and a wheel?

>>54157219
I say the Lightning cannon is way better than the doomwheel.

I'd recommend a Battle standard bearer from the pdf for this army, plant that shit and everyone's immune and rerolling 1's

Failing al that shit, go for the SC!

>>54157358
So maybe I will just drop a doomwheel (or buy it another time) and one Mortar? It will give me enough free points to use a Bell and two cannons

Sylvaneth don't count since they are missing the critical "elf" component of the Wood Elves.

Also, who even knows. The Wanderers are the elf sub-faction that got off the best, but right now it is impossible to predict where things are going to go.

>>54155931
>The Ynnari release was prelude with a Grynix painting tutorial.
The Grynix was quite literally part of the model they released. These are old models painted at customer request.

When they aren't focusing on a recent release (like with the Primaris Marines), like 80% of their paint tutorials involve some old miniature.

That lion pauldron also looks more like something from a Stormcast Eternal than anything else, and rumour mill stuff is never related to a near release. They are always posted weeks or months ahead of the first actual teasers.

For fucks sake, stop perpetuating misinformation. Legacy = Compendium only (aka it doesn't get a new name or isn't in a Grand Alliance book. Not only are dispossessed in the Grand Alliance: Order Book, they're shown in newer Age of Sigmar art and are currently being repacked with round bases.

Have you read none of the Age of Sigmar Black Library books? Read city of secrets for example. Disspossed, Freeguild, Ironweld, Corsairs and many other model types that came from WFB are referenced. This shit would not fly if GW was culling those ranges any further. GW had their perfect chance to remove factions when they made the leap from Compendium to Grand Alliance books.

How do realmgates work? Does a wizard/priest know where they are going if they channel the gateway? Or does everyone end up at a random realmgates somewhere in the realms? I would like to think of it almost like a stargate, what do you guys think?

WHAT?

>>54163389
What about huge crabs in City of Secrets?

Yes, models, you thick-headed fuckwit. Take a look at the following factions which were mentioned in the book:

Scourge Privateers:

Arika is obviously a black ark fleetmaster. She is an aelf, and is described as being in control of the fleet of wolf ships that encircles the harbour. The book is descriptive down to the detail of the bony crest worn by the actual plastic model.

Similarly, the corsairs are blatantly referenced, saying they were elves who wore the scaled hides of sea beasts and were armed with cutlasses.


Dispossessed:

Toll's (the witch hunter) companion is a dwarf, who is noted as using traditional duardin weapons, including a blackpowder pistol and a large axe. Kharadron overlords use aethermatic weapons, so he's not one of them, and fyreslayers don't use pistols or blackpowder weapons. Also you completely ignored the pic I posted before, which shows ironbreakers fighting alongside stormcast against tzaangors. If that's not proof, what the fuck is? Do you want a written statement from the artist confirming what should be obvious?


Ironweld arsenal:

The book makes mention of a number of units from this faction, including the steam tank known as 'old lady', a number of helstorm rocket batteries, a group of gyrocopters called the air corps.


Freeguild:

Several regiments of freeguild are mentioned, and yes, they are explicitly called 'freeguild' several times. Examples include the 'coldguard', 'firewolves' and the 'iron bulls of tarsus'. Regarding their aesthetic, it's largely the same. A good example of this is the freeguild general Synor (general of the iron bulls of tarsus), who is depicted as wearing a large fancy hat with 3 white feathers held in place by a brooch in the shape of a comet. Several units types are explicitly mentioned, including handgunners, halberd and sword-wielding units of guard.

>they all are much more advanced civilization

Hammerhal is a city built around a realmgate that connects the realm of fire to the realm of life. They regularly trade between the two realms. The city exists in both realms.

>>54164725
Yep, you are right, but we talking about current situation, not to mention they've came when gods guarded all realmgates on Azyr
I can accept that maybe Sigmar himself opened the Realmgates in Azyr, but who was opening the gates from the other realms?

Fire god is dead, shadow/light gods were too busy jerking off slaneesh, death god would never allow his subjects to leave, beast god wouldn't care about the aelf/duardin/humans in his realm, alarielle turned into a seed, and so on

Mortals must be able to use the realmgates. Maybe not the average human, but certainly wizards and people that have studied them.

Wizards get a special ability when using the realmgates that lets them reroll 1s.

This is pointless. Everytime I make a point, giving examples and evidence you ignore it. I already proved that arika was a black ark fleetmaster, her description matches the model to the fucking letter. I already told you the significance of the loadout and description of the dwarf, he's part of the dispossessed faction.

>See, armored IG, nothing like WHFBshit.

Fuck off, you know full well that the only steam tank and gyrocopters GW sells are the same as the WFB ones. You haven't even read the book and you're trying to superimpose your bullshit on it.

>Picrelated average city in Azyrheim.

Utterly irrelevant. Azyrheim is one city in one realm. OFC it's going to look fancy, it's one of sigmar's places of dwelling. In fact, the AoS books make a very clear distinction between the fancier styles, architecture and nobility of azyrite citizens v other realms.

Go look at the illustrations from Shadows over Hammerhal (in fact, read the fluff from it). Go read city of secrets. You couldn't have picked a more irrelevant "average" if you tried.

Again, go read city of secrets. It's very obvious that it's talking about freeguild. It called them freeguild. I noted named examples of regiments of freeguild to give you something to look up should you choose to actually read something. The only models in the freeguild range are those taken from the faction formerly known as empire. I already gave you examples of the fashion typical of the faction and weapon types used within their units, which are exactly the same as the units from the faction formerly known as the empire.

>Yep and it's high-tech metropolis

Still the worst representative sample you could have picked. You're dumb as a pack of squigs. You can't pick one super high tech celestial city and use it to make generalisations about the nature of a faction which is found in countless free cities.

>And compendiums describes Freeguilds, aelves and manlets as forces of Azyrheim

Wrong for a variety of reasons.

1. The word 'freeguild' isn't used once in any of the compendiums. You might be thinking of 'empire'.

2. The short scrap of fluff in the start of the compendium is irrelevant; it's a blatantly obvious bandaid solution used before all the renaming of factions which occurred for the release of the Grand Alliance books.

3. Even if they are described as being forces of Azyrheim, does that imply that they aren't found elsewhere? Are you really trying to tell me that the only place freeguild are found or from is azyrheim? Again, read some lore from shadows over hammerhal or city of secrets. The latter book states that troops come from all over the place, both from azyr and from reclaimed tribespeople.

Hell, just read the freeguild guard description on the webstore, which states "Freeguild Guard form the mainstay of the Freeguild's armies. As well as forming a standing army, they serve as city guards and enforcers of all local laws." You can't tell me that one realm can supply enough freeguild troops to support the free cities of every other realm. Unlike stormcast they actually have to hold ground instead of endlessly crusading against chaos.

They're the names of the Freeguild Regiment in the city. Apparently, they all got their names from a "Space Marine Chapter Name Generator."

In case you're wondering.

The Coldguard turn to Chaos. The Fire Wolves get killed off screen. The Iron Bulls try to stop the Chaos uprising, but end up needing the Stormcast to save them.

All and all, if City of Secrets is anything to go on, GW isn't really trying to push the Freeguild.

just one persons humble opinion on the idea of releasing an entire army expanding the Corsairs faction:

I would rather have a proper realm of shadow release of elves with a kick butt Malerion/Malekith center-piece model.

I know Captain Jack Sparrow is popular with the Disney crowd but it's not appealing to me.

>>54166159
>I would rather have a proper realm of shadow release of elves with a kick butt Malerion/Malekith center-piece model.
All what they need is just release warscrolls for Dark Eldars

>>54166159
Both would be great. But the Corsair army is almost there in my opinion. A character on a monster+a wizard+some 'epic' troops and boom, cool faction done.

>the Corsair army is almost there

looking at their unit choices at present, I think it will take more work than you're saying.

They'll need:
devastating long range shooting
hard as nails melee tanking unit
vicious hard hitting melee unit
fast terrain ignoring flanking unit with shooting
fast terrain ignoring flanking unit with brutal melee
teleporting unit
some kind of devastating melee leader/behemoth combo that flies
buffing leader type 1
buffing leader type 2
wizard/priest leader
and some amaze-balls warscroll battalions with kick-ass bonuses

I know its a long list of needs but if they aren't going to properly flesh it out into a real army then they shouldn't bother at all, at least that my opinion.

>>54166287
Well, realistically, they won't ever expand them beyond Ironjaws/Bonesplitter tier with their releases. Also, a single factions shouldn't cover every niche in the game. Giving every army their version of Skyfires is gonna get tiresome really quickly.

>devastating long range shooting
>fast terrain ignoring flanking unit with shooting
Chariot should fill that role, the fast, mobile artillery.

>hard as nails melee tanking unit
>vicious hard hitting melee unit
>fast terrain ignoring flanking unit with brutal melee
>teleporting unit
How b'out a unit of elite corsairs/beastmasters mounted of freakish deep-sea monsters that can deepstrike?

>some kind of devastating melee leader/behemoth combo that flies
>buffing leader type 1
>buffing leader type 2
>wizard/priest leader
Characters are their biggest weakness atm, since the fleetmaster is tax and shit. However a Character on a big (deep sea) monster, and some deep sea wizard/priest would fix that. I'd relegate the Fleetmaster to the buffing role.

>and some amaze-balls warscroll battalions with kick-ass bonuses
The warscroll battalions/traits could shore up their lack of mortal wound with some kind of poison or monster hunting rule?

>They'll need:

For what reason?

>>54165599
Except that there are no tentacles growing from any hero's base. And there are no tentacle monster in Silver Tower, unless you actually believe that was from the non-exist Purple Horror.

Same as Harlequin base having Eldar's ruin.

>>54166371

>>54166376

Yep, but tentacle is pretty common mutation for Tzeench and Silver Tower itself supposed to be full of mutations

>>54166393
Well yeah, but they are the posters boys. And I'm not saying that's a good thing either.

Thanks for the thoughtful response.

The Scourge Runner Chariots "could" fill the role of flanker but it would need a major rules over-haul to do it. They currently have poor shooting and non-existent melee.

I'm wary of trying to have one "elite" unit that is a jack of all trades. More than likely it will end up costing a lot of points and not be very good at anything.

A strong selection of support characters is very important to successful and flavorful armies.

Depending on Warscroll Battalions to make up for a deficiency in the unit roster is a very bad idea. Ideally the Corsairs Faction should have some type of elite unit that can reliably deal mortal wounds, at least at medium range to really be on par with the other "good" armies.

releasing a gimped faction that doesn't perform well and depends on gimmicks to be a one trick pony would be a bad idea. A fully fleshed out force with an appropriate roster of unit choices is a much better idea.

>>54166574
I agree on some points, but the faction should have some weaknesses, on of which could be lack of 'snipers'.

The 'elite' unit should have 3 qualities
>Tough
>Hard hitting
>Mounted / Fast

>Depending on Warscroll Battalions to make up for a deficiency in the unit roster is a very bad idea
I would tie it into their faction trait actually. That way it's less prone to abuse as well.

We also need to remember the Kharibdyss which is quite a cool monster and I think quite decent.

The bodies are from the tzeentch cultists
the shields and weapons are from SCE sprues
The heads are really what I can't figure out, I thought they might be from marauders but no luck, are they 3rd party heads? (I'd find it hard to believe that GW would allow them to put up non-GW bitz on their community site though)
