>>96118375 (OP)Sorry the noob questions.
I liked WHFB as a kid an have decided to get back into it.
I gather Warhammer Old World is the new version? Best way to get started?
Also could anyone recommend a recast site?
Rumours from the last two threads:
Sup fa/tg/rogs, I come bearing alleged Friday preview news:
The next two Arcane Journals will be: The War for Westerland, featuring Miao Ying's Jade fleet, Manann's Blades and a fucking weird Fimir centric AoI. The 2nd will be AJ: Dogs of War, with two new plastic kits
The Jade fleet contains every Cathay unit bar sentinels, and loses the elemental winds (Yin and Yang) rule to fight in an extra rank. Jade lancers aren't core, so good luck painting infantry! 30% mercenary allowance, with Empire captains, lvl 2 wizards, state troops, missile state troops, free company, pistoliers, ogres and Manann's Blades all in there. Suspect this list is gonna be how most people play Cathay. There's also an admiral special character (no model shown, guess he's coming later), who's a roguish, swashbuckler type, who's been living in the Old World for years, who lets you reroll misbehaving mercenaries, can give mercs his leadership, and can also force enemy mercs to fail their misbehaving rolls (bribery). Curiously he can also be mounted in a sky lantern.
Lore is that Marienburg is so under pressure with Norse and Fimir raids that Miao Ying has put it under her protection, whether the Marienburgers want it or not.
Full set of new Cathayan items my source didn't know about
Manann's Blades are the old kit, with the arms recast in resin. You can take as many units as you like, and they can be armed with hw&s, halberds or handguns. Come with heavy armour and at 9 points per model, can be bought pistols for the lulz. Greatsword statline with bs4, drilled, plus ambush or vanguard, these guys are basically Royal Marines and what vet state troops should have been. Special choice for Empire, suspect they're gonna see a lot of play, esp with the special character
Running out of text, more in next post
>>96118775contd
Manann's Blades special character, again no model shown, is the new commander of the Blades after the last one was killed by Fimir, really standard Empire general statline (but only Ld 9, guess he predates the FAQ), hw&s and heavy armour, no ward, but if he's general makes Manann's Blades core.
Fimir list is weird as sin. No new models, just the three basic great weapon guys and the Fimirach Noble, the background is that a coven of Chaos Sorcerers has been causing all sorts of weird shit to pop up around Marienburg to help out the orc raids. The contents of this list feels like a random who's who of other armies' core infantry. It is as follows:
Characters:
Chaos Sorcerers and Sorcerer Lords, who are allowed to use the Lore of Necromancy (you need one on Necromancy if you want to use undead units.)
Fimir Noble (basically a hero level guy)
Core:
Fimir, bog standard monstrous infantry, who can ambush from terrain.
Orc Boyz
Goblins (regular, not Night)
Skeletons
'Marsh Zombies' the motherfucking plastic Zombies kit from the 1990s has been brought back. Hold on to your hats, this list only gets random and weirder
Special:
Chaos Warriors
Tomb Guard, on the premise that there were a bunch on display in a museum somewhere in Marienburg
Rare:
Monster called a 'Gargoyle of Bagra'. Massive gargoyles from a building in Marienburg brought to life by the Chaos Sorcerors. Meaty stats and -1 to wound. Can be given wings and various other upgrades. Would guess there isn't a kit coming, because apparently the unit entry tells you to just pick a large model and paint it like its made out of stone.
List gives most units ambush and vanguard, and gives the Sorcerors a new signature spell that lets them summon the undead stuff. Utterly random, I can't see it doing well competitively, and feels like something someone with ADHD would collect.
Rest of the book's full of cool lore, 3 linked scenarios, and cityfight rules that nobody will ever use.
DoW next post
>>96118781Contd with Dogs of War
My source hasn't seen the book, so what he shared was a bit less clear.
The book will be called Dogs of War, and contains a Grand Army list. The two new plastic kits contain both Tilean and Estalian options, and an army can be flavoured either way.
The kits are a pike/crossbowman box, and a 'venator' knight box. They're gorgeous models to the standard of Cathay, and contains the option for either plumed Tilean helmets and floppy hats, or classic Morion Conquistador helms for the Estalians.
The pike/crossbowmen are in heavy armour, but alas the crossbowmen do not have pavise shields like the old metal RoR.
Galloper guns, and birdmen are returning in resin. There's a new resin Paymaster and cart, and Estalian and Tilean foot and horse heroes.
The Dogs of War list is weird apparently. It's a mishmash of old units as under previous editions, but you unlock different stuff based on what race your general and paymaster are, similar to the militia list in HH I guess.
The paymaster is basically a BSB+, and while not mandatory you'd be crazy not to take one. Rides a cart with a load of extra wounds that can be sat in a block of infantry, 18" BSB range, lets you pick the result if you fail a misbehaving merc test (spoiler: all DoW units are mercs), and the entire army hate the unit that kills him.
As for the build a bear list component, the following races are available to generals, and most of them are available to paymasters: Tilean, Estalian, Empire, Dwarf, High Elf, Ogre, Orc, HOBGOBLIN
Yep, Hobgoblins are back. Apparently they're the Chaos Dwarf sculpts not the Asian looking DoW ones though. Metal, not resin. Can only be taken with a Hobgoblin general apparently, and lock out a lot of other options.
Some of the general options can't be taken as Paymasters (guessing orc?), and a lot of them can't be combined (a greenskin general with a dwarf paymaster I'm guessing).
Wow, out of room, more to come
>>96118785More Dogs of War
The choice of who is your general or paymaster unlocks various different unit options and restricts others. For example, a dwarf general paymaster moves basic mercenary dwarfs from special to core, and allows you to take longbeards and dwarf cannons in special, while preventing you from taking any orcs in your list at all.
There's no benefit for stacking a general and paymaster of the same race, I think the idea is to encourage people to lean into the cosmopolitan nature of DoW armies.
Tileans unlock galloper guns and birdmen. Estalians don't unlock any new units, but make your Estalian units better, and let you give the front rank of a pike unit crossbows.
Hilariously High Elf generals unlock nothing. I think the intonation's supposed to be 'you get to take a dragon, now fuck off'.
Forgot to them in the list in the last post, but Norse generals are also a thing. Don't know what they unlock, but presumably Marauders/Berserkers?
Giants are in the list as a rare choice.
If there are special characters I forgot to ask about them.
I hope this is of interest. Source: my dad is Matt Ward
>>96118723Source ? Is it Warhammer+ ?
(big interactive map is still the same)
>>96118805Yes, someone screenshot it from Warhammer+.
>>96118723>>96118805but not really new information
>>96118785Dogs of War would genuinely bring me back to WHFB.
>>96118869even if they didn't have those new plastic units?
>>96118874Tbh it would be an ask, but I could see myself using the Perry European mercs and WGA conquistadors to fill out the numbers anyway.
>>96118864We get name for Warhammer Korea (Khosun) and there are two cities inside it, with a High Elf outpost on island near it
There is a third Cathayan Sentinel character (in the eastern coast)
There is a city located on the sea near Nippon (unless it is graphic error and should've been in Nippon)
And there are a lot of Ogre symbol for some reason, even though Ogre is a legacy race...
What are the chances we'll get more halflings?
>>96118886impressive that you could read all that. my eyes are getting worse, it seems.
>>96118864The High Elves in not-Korea.
There is at least 4 Monkey faces (probably meaning many tribes).
The Cathay settlement in the far west of the warpstone desert in probably the Tower of Ashshair.
There is a 3rd giant guardian, on the coast, after Saytang in the Celestial mountains and Yangsing on the Dragon river (Yangsing seems to have moved too).
>>96118723still no Yin-yin flag
And I see Khoshun is the official name for Fantasy Korea
>>96118723>>96118936>canon Korean elvesYum.
I guess they get constantly invaded by Nippon and aided by Cathay. And their turtle ships might be literal dragon turtles.
>>96118940YinYin is off in a magical isekai adventure as a drunken useless deadbeat mom.
>>96118951We also have Canon Japanese/Okinawan elves as well
>>96119038why are there ruined pyramids in nippon
>>96119063lizardmen, they were everywhere.
>>96119063lizards were everywhere once
>>96119063old ones shenanigans most likely, but it's probably partly inspired by these real-life rock formations off the Ryukyu Islands
>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yonaguni_Monument
>>96119075>>96119080>>96119083Ah, ziggurats. I thought they either meant tomb kangs or misnaming kofun.
>>96119080They really get around, today they sent high elves back to the donut .
Really fun game though.
Fav part is one red crest skink champion surviving after fireball and volley of archer fire, charging the level 4 elf archmage and eventually killing him.
Sotek watched over the lead priest. Granting him lvl 2 battle:
Fireball and took hammerhand
Engine of the gods fireball.
potential twin fireballs every turn was terrifying to behold. Apocalyptic even.
Those poor swordmasters.
Lots of fun though, looking forward to playing against them again. First time Iโve played against high elves since 2017(and that was in mordheim)

>>96118951dragon turtle you say
>>96118723Oh shit fantasy korea revealed that's cool. Cathay's coastline being just a straight line is prettt lame though, should've made it curved.
>>96119160Insanely kino table anon good job
>>96119219Cathay's coastline being so straight is just due it being straight in older maps and it's stuck ever since
I've made a mtd warrior priest. He may lack a headband or a surcoat, but I was working with what I had available.
>>96118794Take a fuckin screenshot christ
>>96118723Huh, looks like they remembered Beastmen infest the interior. Also Dwarves in the South West corner?
>>96119332It's the one of the old Dwarfs founded before everything went to shit like Karak Vrag, Karak Azorn and Karak Krakaten, one of which might still be inhabited
>>96119271you could give him a tattoo around the head
>>96119320nta, but this is easier to quote, if needed
not that there's much need to quote since we've spent most discussion
And my wood elves army is done! 2000pts.
>>96119455Well done anon they look beautiful, what are you using the aos elf/spite things as?(also pleas post a closeup)
>>96119219>>96119220Thanks anon, next time Iโm bringing rats.
>>96119505thanks! I use them as treekins, since I got 6 of them for cheap
>>96119520Oh sweet. They work super well for that, Iโve yet to meet a wood elf player that likes the official models for treekin.
Traditional Warhammer Japanese mesoamerican pyramids made by walking cuijas.
>>96119532some of those are words, alright
>>96119532High Elves are Ancient Greek Japanese Egyptian Celtic French Melniboneans.
>>96119873Where are you getting the French aspect of High Elves?
>>96118775>>96118781>>96118785>>96118794lol literally the coolest possible most interesting tow news ever, too bad none of its real!! :โ((
>>96119900Cothique, Yvresse, their mansions with round towers and peaked blue rooves plus they're all wine-drinking nancies.
>>96119900research the sun king
>>96119873you forgot the tolkien elven influence, unless you're leaving that one implicit, but it would be against the point
>>96119948>the coolest possible most interesting tow news everThat would be GW reopening their mail order catalogue permanently and it including ALL their products since the very start
>>96120009Worth it for the second hand market collapse and ensuring suicides
>>96119985Rob the Honest wargamer insists they are colonial British and sus
>>96120120that's a milquetoast take that's been around forever
>>96118723>lands of khosunoh boy I can't wait for retards to start making up some irrelevant fourth world oriental human faction on the name alone
>>96120009I don't like ordering from GW anymore, but fuck me I would make an exception if they did that.
>>96120009The only reason I buy from recasters is because they offer the models that I want. I get that maybe I'm in a minority (albeit not in the TOW community), but I really do like the old WHFB sculpts way more than the new ones. If James ever did something like this then I'd put my money where my mouth is and order from them, even if the price was slightly higher.
>>96119455Looks fantastic, anon
>>96120189It would just be Joseon war era Koreans, that's the only War anyone even Korea cares about when trying to make Fantasy Korea
>>96120460aren't those just more chinese?
>>96120471no those japanernese
>>96120471They wear different silly hats
>>96118751pick the army that you think is the coolest and would be the most fun to paint.
would also suggest looking up square based on youtube and watch their army rundown videos.
>>96120421He did a good job. I actually hate the later wood elf plastics with the curly shields which sucks because they are my favourite army. And I don't much care for red green colour schemes yet the army looks good. Generally there are more reasons to appreciate a finished army than not. Glsd to see 2,000 pts Wood Elves is not currently a crazy figure count.
>>96119271looks awesome, nice work
>>96118751Old World is the new version but it's cucked. Find people who play classic editions (not hard). Thank me later. There's a certain special subr*ddit for recasts, can't say which in case James is lurking.
>>96118751TOW is current and supported and is one of the better editions. If you want games it's the only version you'll likely play.
If you like recasts scroll Google and you can put 2 and 2 together James is always watching so I say nothing. Failing that, there are many ways from 3rd party to old lots to buy, and their batallions are actually cheaper than 8th ed per a model. And with this edition resetting the army size creep it's easy to get 1k points for under 200 dollars when you go full paypiggy even.
Any army particular you wish to start?
So where are they streaming the preview? YouTube? Twitch?
>>96121214you can use either
>>96118751It is indeed. Post errata itโs one of the best versions of fantasy with only magic being disappointing.
>>96119271Looks good anon desu~
Great paintjob and I wouldn't mistake him for anything else
>>96121214Both
In 1.5 hrs, probably 2 hrs when we get reveals
>>96121234I dunno how anyone can think that. The game lacks so much flavor.
>>96121301By playing the game and comparing it to my experience playing 6-8th.
>>96121321You know in a year to 18 months they're going to do what they did to 40k, AoS and HH right? You'll all come crawling back to 6th/8th.
>>96121301Fuck off perryfag
>>96121339I doubt it, considering they just released an errata that shows they are listening.
>>96121500Yeah, and they promised that HH 3.0 would just be a few minor fixes. Kek. This is the new business model for Games Workshop. They want to eliminate kit bashing and sourcing bits from alternative providers, on top of forcing you to buy a new army every 3 years. They've already started with Cathay; you can't equip anything that's not in the box, same shit they've pulled with the other games. There's no reason they'll give TOW special treatment. They want you to build, paint and play with everything that comes in the box and the box only.
>>96121595the beastmen arcane journal that just came out explicitly encourages kitbashing
source: I own it
>>96121595Why would this stop me from playing 2.0?
>>96121615Horus Heresy also encouraged kitbashing before the change. They'll let TOW run the course it's on now, then they'll flip the switch. It's their new business model. No reason TOW will remain different. Cathay already started the process.
I don't know why you guys trust GW to make quality games instead of doing what they can to squeeze every penny out of players. They don't care about games.
>>96121651No one is stopping you from playing 2.0 nor did I insinuate that you should?
>>96121595If HH is populated by pissants like you, GW nuking it to remove you is kind of based.
>>96121654I trust them to make quality games because post errata tow is superior to any edition of fantasy I have ever played in terms of actual core rules.
>>96121675I don't play HH. I'm sorry that highlighting GW's new philosophy for their products has upset you so much. Don't shoot the messenger and all that.
>>96121595>no kitbashing encouraged Wait till the AoI come out in 1.5 hrs retard before posting this bait. Right now every single book has encouraged its even matched play encouraged baggage trains
>>96121691Perrynigger, fuck off.

>>96121732Iโm just waiting for the age of sigmar fan reaction when they realize chaos dwarfs arenโt going to be a 1:1 to the fantasy designs and are some AoS redesign of the faction. I always find it hilarious AoSfags only ever seem to want fantasy factions and characters ported over, itโs almost like theyโre unintentionally admitting they just want to be playing an old world skirmish game instead of AoS
>>96121784Gitmob looked at lot like WHF goblins.
>>96121784They'll be a ripoff of Legion of Azgorh, as that was supposedly why they weren't allowed to bring them back for TOW despite being made by Forgeworld.
>>96121732I am ready. Surely the chaos gods will not abandon us.
>>96121784if they look like the blood bowl ones, it's ok for both TOW and AOS
>>96121784The smart play would be to make them just like the originals so they can double dip and people can buy them for whatever game they choose without issue.
>>96121784They've been clamoring for malerion's shadow elves from day one.
To an extent also silent people, drogrukh centaurs and whatever kurnothi are. Although those are also a bit of a meme
>>96121915I hope they donโt look like those, theyโre ugly as fuck.

Wait, so if I understand it right, the lore for these new chorfs is that normal dwarfs (err, duardin...) were overwhelmed by chaos and then EXACTLY THE SAME STUFF as in Fantasy happened again? Hashut shows up and offers them a deal and suddenly we got chorfs again?

Why all the wine-coloured cloth
>>96122897>>96122921these guys look cool at least
>>96122897Shocked that they call them Bull Centaurs.
The chorfs remind me of the fireforge dwarves a lot in design. You probably vould just use these with a headswap.

This absolutely screams AoS. I don't think any of these were ever earmarked for TOW.
>>96123034Yeah, not digging the official color scheme. Fucking Burning Legion looking ass.

>>96123071Why would they? Chorfs are legacy.
Why'd they even put us on the preview with two models and two books, we're getting mogged
>>96123071I like the regular infantry well enough. Will probably buy a box to paint up, but uh yeah most of this makes me glad we get stuff like Cathay instead.
>>96123098Rumour on here was that initial design was for TOW.
>>96123075I badly need to see some of these models with proper chorf colours
>>96123119At least the two kits we got mog everything AOS got. The bull centaurs look cool, the rest is ass.

>Arcane Journal: War of Settraโs Fury
A new Arcane Journal describing Settraโs full-scale invasion into the Border Princes and the Vaults), and the efforts of some unlikely allies in resisting it.
This 48-page supplement is packed with the lore behind the bloody Tomb Kings offensive and loads of content for your games. Youโll find rules for mounts for Khemrian characters, the incantations of the Mortuary Cult, and various Armies of Infamy, including Dwarfen Slayers and the Border Princes, alongside rules for smaller bouts of Warhammer: the Old World.
>Arcane Journal: Dawn of the Storm Dragon
Our next reveal tells a very different tale. In the spring of 2277, as the Chaos Champion Frydaal the Chainmaker ransacks the northern reaches of the Empire, a fleet led by Miao Ying sets out from Grand Cathay, intent on beating back the scions of the Dark Gods, and diplomacy with the Empire of Man.
This Arcane Journal details this turbulent history, as well as the warriors and heroes involved in them. Youโll find terrain generation tables, guidelines for multiplayer games, linked battles, and a new Army of Infamy, The Jade Fleet โ an alliance between Grand Cathay and the people of Westerland.
>>96123502Agreed, if they just redesigned the tomb kings skellies I would be all in. Maybe I can get away with proxying Tomb Guard as skellies.
>>96123349People were arguing with me when I pointed out that skavenslaves and Chaos Dwarf greenskin units (except Black Orcs and Hobgoblins) are gone from TOW and GW has been removing every mention of slaves from the background, like the Slave Giants.
It's been obvious for ages but people are in denial.
It's fucking insane, honestly.
>arcane journals can also be narrative scenario packs
This os a good thing.
>>96123525>and a new Army of InfamyOnly one? Shame
>The Jade Fleet โ an alliance between Grand Cathay and the people of Westerland.That is literally what the leak said
>>96123567Is TOW age of sigmar retard?
>>96123567It's slaves to darkness, not symbiotic relationships to darkness.
>>96123599>That is literally what the leak saidTbf this was leaked in the discord a while ago
Speaking of have any of the established leakers reacted or given any extra details?
>>96123562I've had great success with slapping TG heads onto Skeleton warrior bodies.
>>96122724>>96122748>>96122802>>96122943It is time.
For the hat measuring contest.
I feel ashamed for watching these reveals. It was my first one ever, I'm not usually into this sรณy Twitch reveal shit but I was curious. I generally have little to no faith in nu-GW but holy fuck they have really dropped the ball. What an utter waste of time. I can see the AoS chorfs completely flopping.
the bull centaurs look pretty good, everything else is extreme meh and a huge missed opportunity.
somewhere i saw a rumor that these were originally meant for TOW but the AOS trannies got mad and demanded they own it.
that was debunked today.
>>96123706>AoS gets those things>we get Mewoing I think we're gonna be alright.
>>96123634Nothing yet, looks like all the DoW stuff is a wash so either- gedubs pulled back or 2- a usually accurate leaker trolled hard
can someone post all the hats they had in that video?
That notK'dai Destroyer looks so fucking bad holy shit
>>96123706AoS chorfs range from very boring to straight up bad (arty/bull monster thing/mount). The centaurs look pretty cool thobeit.
Tomb Kings got 2 amazing character kits. Love both of them.
>>96123805Cathay really wasnโt much better.
there's something about the AoS chorfs that makes them look like assets ripped from WoW
>>96123810Or maybe they're not far along for a release, since they wanted the army reveal for AoS and DoW got pushed back for later.
>>96123604GW has a company policy. But it's alright, keep coping.
While we're at it, I'll note that Ghorros Warhoof's TOW description has omitted all implications of sex whatsoever. No mention of carnality, no mention of him not being 'discerning' nor of an 'unfortunate encounter' with the prince of Unicorns.
It's a subtle change but present and deliberate.
>>96123832That's just AoS in general
>>96123805Dragon Bint is an awful AoS coded oversized centreshit model, I'm still embarrassed that she's sold under the Old World brand
>>96123864Hes described as exceptionally virile.
>>96123894Even when this place objectively wins it has to bitch about it.
>>96122724I hate when they have female dwarf models. I don't even necessarily hate women in human armies, but dwarfs have such a specific look. Just give them beards for Grungi's sake.
Somehow they always manage to exceed my most bleak expectations.
>>96123622Slaves to darkness or slaves to the dark gods is the one place the word remains, probably because it's metaphorical slavery rather than literal.
>>96123940Wins what? That shit has no place in Warhammer.
>>96123894Fuck off perrynigger
Also the hobgrots look "simple" enough to play them as hobgoblins I guess
I don't even play TK and I want that rearing guy
Well, we may not have gotten much, but IMO we got the nicest models of the night. The Tomb Heralds are great, the Liche Priests are goated.
>>96123949Luckily thay doesn't effect us at all
I'm curious now what thr "border prince" armies look like since we already have a border prince AoI effectively in the exile list. I'm still guessing this is a DoW list.
>>96123599>>96123634They said this in an article with the designers actually.
>>96122476So when can we order these?
>>96123940Especially funny because in the same faction you have the actually offensively large centerpiece model that dwarves an imperial knight.
>>96124022Oh yeah you're right
So what the fuck was the pirate hat hinting at then?
you guys took the biggest L I'm sorry
>>96124039TOW in general really wants every army to have a scary big thing.
At the very least they're not that hard to deal with.
Way I see it, Old World won bigly with our only new models being easy 9/10s and AoS once again proving itself to be overdesigned.
If anything, AoS is a floodgate for that type of designer. We should be thankful they fall on that sword for us.

>>96124080We kinda got a very vague one. TOW article says more AJ over the next few months and more models coming.
>>96124106Truly they are the lightning rod for retarded stuff.
>>96124125>>96124129But he's not a pirate
James continues to be retarrded
>>96122550Anon ate you illiterate? Both AJs have AoIs in them
>>96124125>>96124129nta
What does that have to do with pirates...
>>96124127Tomb Kings are the most based faction though?
>>96124106Based. I've adopted this exact mindset. Goes for ESG shit as well. Wish for AoS to continue to do JUST well enough to keep it at bay.
i missed it did they say when the rest of cathay is dropping?
>>96124167>TOW article says more AJ over the next few months and more models coming.Link? Also that's less than vague. We all know more models and AJ's are coming because the game isn't dead.
So the new TK stuff is all plastic.
We really are getting rid of all resin units and models arent we.
So where is the story FAGGOT (((((LEAKER))))))).

The Chorf models aren't awful, but neither are great. I think the worst offender was the low energy color scheme. I think someone who wants to 'eavy me'al them up can add some jazz, but I dunno. Even the hats are pretty lame. I'm sorry to all the Chorf fans, I guess.
>>96124293It's the art design, bale taurus, and faces.
Awful.
The regular infantry guys are passable otherwise.
>>96124293The chorf models are really bad because they are a straight downgrade to what they used to have.
>>96124106I agree. Looking at my Lammasu and Drazhoath models on my shelf right now and smiling. Thank fuck the new Chorfs are staying in AoS
will pick up the hobgoblins though
>>96124219Did this jester hat come into play during the preview at all ?
>>96124293I agree with the paint scheme thing. Will look much better in bright red and gold with normal fire instead of warpstone shit.

>hobgrot vandalzLMAO GAY AF
>>96124293Bull centaurs are pretty great, taurus is meh, war machine is OK. I think that between those models, some 3D printing (basic units) and hell cannon you can actually build a decent chorf army.
>>96124642They're just kind of too high fantasy this time around. A mechanical bull is just too much for me at least. The mechanical steeds for the Empire were already somewhat shat on when they released.
>>96124671Chaos dwarfs have probably the most extensive STL roster of all TOW armies. Highlands miniatures will also start releasing their versions in November.
>>96124293One the one hand I don't feel like I can cast full judgement on them till I see them painted red and black. But on the other, I can't see much use for them unless you are both lazy and don't want anything but GW. If you are willing to do some sanding and greenstuff, hammerer bodies look a whole lot better. If you are lazy there are much better out of the box 3d prints and kits.

>>96124215Bro those 'many new arcane journals' refers to the two in the reveal.
Played a second game with a crap ton of hand holding. Apparently wheeling to redirect with hounds is very crucial.
The Knights unlike the first game got to engage and wiped out his horse archers and annihilated the chariot unit. Was more or less game then. The warriors got flanked but the champion smashed the chariot into cinders.
Fun games.

It took me a few months to realise just how fucking gay and shit things have become. I switched to getting recasts and 2nd hand when it was announced my faction was Legacy but the whole Cathay thing honestly just fucking nailed that coffin shut.

>>96124845I asked for help, but went with the 5 knights. Problem is, first game they did nothing. Second game i went 10 warriors which marginally helped.
>>96124869Nah, this general is for people like me. Your time is over.
>>96124869you're an embarrassment to this general anon
>>96124788I always said my red line was female space marines. I'd probably still collects Orc/ks though, they're fun.

>>96124910Ironic because if you voice criticism of TOW you're immediately met with "fuck off perrynigger!!!!11!!1"
>>96124869Ignore those other queermos. You're doing God's work.
>>96124814SOVL versus soulless.
>>96124892>>96124894>newfag who just got here has to tell me about the general
>>96124788I've not bought any models directly from GW or a third party retailer in years, why would you? You can get basically everything second hand for cheaper with just a little bit of looking, I snagged a Steam tank for half price because it didn't come in the box not that long ago, and scans and recasts cover me when I want rarer models. I did buy the books (core rulebook, FoF, RH and 2 AJ's) because I thought they were going to be evergreen products and I like having physical rules, but now that I've realised toW is also on a 3 year cycle I'll be pirating and printing books from now on.
>What did it takeI'm cheap and not retarded
>>96124812Those dice are gonna be worth a fortune in 10 years. Seems like a good investment
>>96124927I'm very much a firm believer in oldgoodnewbad but c'mon... That new Liche Priest is mint.
>>96124917It's just this place anon, I love coming here because it offers stuff I just don't get on r*ddit or other places but fuck me do you lads love consle warring about a tabletop mini game
I play all systems because I just enjoy the models and to an extent the rules. Plus I've got friends who play all systems. Once you ignore the hate that certain posters put out about each system and focus on the stuff you love you tend to have more fun.
>>96124730Forge world and total war really really spoiled people.
>>96124960>$44 each they are a fortune now.
>>96124825Lack of sales killed WFB, you have only yourself to blame
>>96124788If I didn't like the models I wouldn't buy them anon. It's pretty simple and I don't what other line of logic you could have been using besides this.
>>96124927>8th ed finecast shit>SOVLThey should use the trufflehounds on you.
>>96123567Removing Savage orcs for sensitivity reasons was nuts.
>>96124917Because he's derailed hundreds of threads. It's just tiresome. Cathay got a lot of criticism from this very general and it was fine. What's not fine is to go "you're a slop consoomer" for daring to buy the new Tomb Kings models. That's not criticism, that's just trite ad hominem and doesn't leave room for any discussion.
>>96124945Don't you have the AoS general to shit up? You've already been at it for years. That game sucks but you should kys
>>96124997GW will always be shit because they are a british company and UK is UKuck'd
rob and those youtube guys use bluesky for fucks sake
>>96125011bluesky is unironically better than the ad infested ai slop hellscape that is twitter
>>96125017>2025>people still see ads on the internet and haven't blocked them allare you all retarded or what?
>>96124836What was your faction larper?
>>96125017Nah, Bluesky is too dead to really be useful. I can ignore twitter spam, cant really ignore dead space.
>>96125017Nah. It's just another breed of dipshit echo chamber.
>>96125027maybe you're a faggot
>>96123210That looks like an average eastern european slampig
>>96125017there's posters on bluesky aside from pedos?
>>96125011I wonder if beasasters and pack masters are next for supporting animal cruelty.
>>96124983That's nothing, anon. I spent 40 bucks on pizza today.
>>96125093I'd spend $40 on a pizza too before i spend $40 on plastic dice that i can get at my LGS for $6
>>96125111Hmm, yes. But those dice have no collector value
I didn't want to believe you guys but you were right about chaos dwarfs
It's over...
Time to get that 3D printer I've avoided buying forever
>>96124080that would mean gw has a plan
>>96125137Just get GW FW recasts. They still look great
>>96124869Perryfag. Please, kill yourself. For the sake of your wife and son.
>>96125111You're a retard if you buy GW dice but the dice market is ludicrously expensive for what they are when it comes to the so-called fancy ones. A game store near me sells those standard DND dice sets for 30 and 40 bucks just because they have gold edges.
>>96125137I enjoy the Lost Kingdom and White Angel lines.
>>96125155Yes but I want funny hat men along with the forgeworld kits
I like the chorfs. Change the green flames and they look way better.
>>96122476Now I understand how nagash got his tall hat fetish.
>>96125164>everyone i dont like is the same person
>>96125190hats too small, artillery too small
>>96125164The goblinfag isn't the same as the perryfag fyi.

Why are the new Chorfs covered in fucking gems, it's shit
>>96125240You have the reading comprehension of a downie
>>96124825When you buy a model kit you're not buying a game anon, Idk why something that doesn't come with your purchase affects anything.
>>96125227I think it looks cool.
>>96125240I will post pictures of my next haul since it pisses you off
>>96125260that is because you are a stupid wowbrained minecraft watching roblox playing child.
>>96125280post models with timestamp
>resident schizo is having a melty over chorfs
Lmao
>>96125311He has none. He's done this for literal years. Last time i saw him "post a model" it was a skink but he forgot to check the base and posted an AoS one.
Watch him deny it now.
>>96125227>low polygonThat's a better way to put it. I was going to say "cell shaded but bad"
what I love is how an AoS release can destroy the quality of the TOW general, never change
>>96125385What? We won again today. Chorfs look like shit.
>>96124293Iโm seeing this sentiment from my friends who are explicitly down for AoS style and setting of high fantasy. From their prospective the range doesnโt really utilize AoSโs do whatever the fuck rules to any real degree and they just look kind of boring to them.
Guess GW tried to have a โlook guys chorfs! Remember old fantasy guys?โ But also wanted them to feel AoS, but couldnโt commit to that design school either. This should have just been two different lines of chaos dwarves for old world and then a AoS line that goes ape shit.
>>96125311He literally hijacked another anons batrep photo yesterday lol
>>96125227Damn AoS got monkey pawed hard
>>96125227It's a new low, 90% of that range are straight garbage.
>>96125412I think the colour scheme is really not doing them any favours. With more vivid colours I think most of the range will look pretty good. I'm not super into the blocky bull but that's going to be a field day for the god tier blending painters. I actually appreciate they held back on overdoing design elements on the regular foot troops and the goblins, but that does feel very un-AoS. Highlight are probably the bull centaurs and some of the characters.
>>96124293>the paint schemeI couldn't quite put m finger on it before, but looking at the infantry again, it feels so wrong because it's basically the pre-5e dark elf paint scheme. Why does James keep doing these shitty mismatched schemes?
I like the new chorfs a lot desu, theyre a downgrade from whfb chorfs but I dont think theyre that bad
New lore kinda sucks though, I hate how gw doesnt let bad guys be bad guys and use slaves or keep harems anymore
Most of the Chaos Dwarf range is pretty lame imo. The centaurs look really cool, the artillery and taurox and monster look pretty bad. Overall a pretty bad release. I struggle to see it doing well as a new army. It doesn't appeal to grogs enough and idk if it's interesting/out there enough for AoS types.
>>96124717Settra's boogaloo book has a "Border Princes" AoI, curious to see how DoWsy it actually ends up being, given bret exiles are already a thing.
>>96125481What race openly kept harems?
>>96125445I really can't wait to see some of these with the classic fiery colours. The green stuff is especially jarring given we got the Skaven last year.
>>96125481>I hate how gw doesnt let bad guys be bad guys I understand the feeling, but considering how flanderised chaos always ends up being, portraying some clearly corrupted people as more ambiguous makes for better stories.
same deal with dark elves really, they're at their best when they're dicks but not chaos sockpuppets.
>>96125535this guy is gonna be cool after a hand swap
>>96125541I don't remember that, was this from 5th ed?
>>96125530I swear I recall chorfs doing it? either way they mistreated women in whfb but now theyve had a feminist movement i guess
And im pretty sure Tomb kings and Araby kept harems
>>96125227The riders are absolute shit, but I kind of appreciate the cow's art deco vibe, ngl. It'd make a cool terrain piece or something.
>>96125553I guess but it is nice to just see some comically evil people, also having things like oppression of women and keeping slaves arent on the same levels of skinning people alive or wearing skull clad armor
>>96125530>>96125572Tomb Kings for sure. There a tomb king voice line in the total war Warhammer games where a tomb king character can say โ FIND MY HAREM! โ when selected on the campaign map.
>>96125566They're fantasy Arabs, harems of half naked sexy women is core to any orientalist painting.
They even have a regiment of elite guards called the dread daughters of Tariq mentioned in Warmaster, so I want to believe.
>>96125611>but it is nice to just see some comically evil peoplethat's true, I just prefer when that's the extreme rather than the average
btw I'm not talking about the forced gender equality shit or the fear of even merely mentioning the existence of slavery, that's utter bullshit from start to end, I agree
Something about the shape language of the nu chorfs really doesn't do it for me, just bery ugly in a way I cant put my finger on
>>96125611Well they should do both. It makes no sense for someone to commit legit atrocities like skinning and not also have female sex slaves.
>>96125659I think its best to have a contrast of regularly evil to comically evil, and the chorfs (the aos ones at least) would fit that in the sense of "we think we are beating chaos but we are just furthering its goals" (or at least thats what i gathered from the stream)
also im pretty sure the hobgrots are slaves? but i cant tell, maybe they have unions now
>>96124814I like both for different reasons
>left looks like heโs barely holding together and his breath alone could kill you. Like a true believer held on by faith and spite alone.>right looks like a rich bitch up his own ass and doesnโt care heโs now cursed to undeath because he can still lord his position over you
>>96125572Chorfs were mentioned keeping their women under the thumb of a few top chorf leaders due to being rare, but it's ambiguous if it's that they are slaves or equals of a sort iirc they can be priestesses.
>>96124825If you are emotionally invested in getting one over on a company because they stopped selling toys you liked for a few years you are a consoomer, not the people who don't give a fuck, sorry to say
>>96125659Maybe that's why Araby can't come into being, since they probably have more slaves than Naggaroth. Lashiek has the largest slave market in the world.
And they're good guys that love order and civilization, their mages teach in the empire, their advances in gun technology improving Imperial arsenals.
>>96125686because its low poly
Ok, now that the dust is settling in the Border Princes...
As stated by warcom, "youโll find rules for mounts for Khemrian characters, the incantations of the Mortuary Cult, and various Armies of Infamy, including Dwarfen Slayers and the Border Princes, alongside rules for smaller bouts of Warhammer: the Old World".
- Rules for extra mounts: these are some extra options for TK characters to ride, most will involve conversions or the new models announced today.
- The incantations of the mortuary cult: think of these as scrolls with a bound spell. I won't go into the exact mechanics for them, I'll just say that they bring some old favourites back.
- Dwarfen Slayers: it's a new army of infamy. Again, I don't want to share too much at this stage. Expect the army to improve and give options to slayers and slayer characters, allow you to pick Doomseekers as part of its force organization, and a new unit (more on that one later on).
- Border Princes: this is what covers the conceptual space of the Southern Realms or Dogs of War army. Once more, without going into too much detail, it's an army of infamy that mixes troops from Empire and Bretonnian exiles, then adds some new things of its own. It allows a bit more use of mercenaries than normal, and also adds pikemen in some capacity... But as far as that goes, you will have to wait a little for more details.
- Rules for smaller bouts: not much to be said here.
P.S: even if those pikes look cool, don't sell your swords just yet.
>>96123525>alongside rules for smaller bouts of Warhammer: the Old World.wonder if this will be Border Patrol 500 points or more like Warhammer Skirmish from 6th edition
>>96125778Maybe it's both. But I would prefer skirmish, since that's a fun little thing from 6th edition.
>>96125756Border prince list sounds cool, I've been wanting to make a scraggly mercenary shithole human army
>>96123525So one kinographic one made by trve grogs and one sloppa to be ignored
>>96125807Significantly better but still just hate the larping-as-nagash look
>>96125807That looks so much better it's insane
>>96125807Insane how much better this is, i still like the mountain dew flames but holy shit the eavy metal team bungled this
>>96125807Ten times better, well done anon
>chorf anons getting utterly shitblasted with warcraft visual overhaul, niggers and women, the entire shebang
They did you dirty, anons. You didn't deserve this.
>>96125822>>96125821yeah i really think its just a color scheme issue and this range looks much better in the hands of a skilled painter and a good scheme than the preview lets on.
also in case you guys missed this one from the aos thread
>>96125830Heavy metal needs to go,they fucked so many paint schemes up that I'm sure some armies sold less just because they look like ass on the webstore.
>>96125841still looks like a shitty 3d print from a company called BATTLEFORGE that the dumbest faggot at your lgs brings to the store unpainted with visible layer lines and support marks and talks about how cool it is and hwo he bought it off etsy
>>96125841yeah this one needs more than a paint job to make it look nice, still much better than whatever eavy metal was churning out
>>96125841yeah no, this thing is unsalvageable
Was anyone asking for new characters sculpts for tomb kings? A faction that is Not collected by me.
What we really needed was new hero sculpts for factions that are played by me.
>>96125844friend of mine said gw really needs to start advertising with bare grey and im starting to believe him more and more, eavy metal needs to be drug behind a barn and shot
>>96125862>Was anyone asking for new characters sculpts for tomb kings?When TOW first launched, I think more people expected more new plastic kits instead of just the Tomb Dragon, so this is just GW responding to that want, 18 months after they heard it.
>>96125875>drug behind a barnlmao, you the "ran" guy?
>>96125862They're quite nice models, and if they start making foot+mounted packs standard that'd be really nice
however, tomb kings are still unnplayable without their core models getting an update
>>96125862Shit idea anon, I wanted models for factions played by me, not you
I find it really ironic that I get called a consoomer for collecting original models with real market value when the other guy literally just views random printed slop as a means to an end to consooom wargaming. And no that doesn't mean I have to like every model out there, if I don't like I will simply not get it.
Someone I know who bought a classic porsche comes to mind, then the engine broke down and he replaced all the parts with unoriginal parts. He got laughed out of the porsche club.
I mean, imagine collecting WW2 memorabilia and your collection is just a bunch of modern imitations. It's ridiculous. Anyway that's all I'm gonna say on the matter.

>>96125991I'm legit starting to think it's by design and the Heavy Metal team just don't want to do AoS models. Pretty much all the AoS originals have histty mismatched paint schemes that don't work with their models.
>>96125896Your trolling brother,
(Your faction) Is easily the least popular on account of everyone that collects it being doodoo heads why would they reinvest in that
(My faction) Is fucking sick and everyone that collects it is a big dick swinga it just makes sense to reinvest in that
>>96126020i actually kinda like the lore reasoning behind why they dont use hammers and axes, being the symbols of grungni and grimnir so they shun them. thats fun
>>96126020Heavy metal really killed another army before it's release with their dogshit paint schemes
>>96126019>implying your faction is the most popularhalf of your factions range is older than my decrepit grandfathers corpse, my faction is not only meta, but hella fucking slick

>>96125807It does look good, but I'd imagine they didn't go for this because it's literally Khorne's color scheme and they wanted to make them their own thing. Also it's funny how the commentators constantly talked about how they'd look good if someone else painted them with different colors.
>>96126020I believe those giant gemstones are runing it. Can you erase them, image wizard anon?
Which armies do you think are the best to collect?
A mix of decent rules, decent models, and a variety of what models are viable instead of stacking the same few units.

>>96126097They landed a hit with skaventide, even the stormcast looked pretty good, which was a near impossible task to achieve. This next release was bound to be a giant mess.

But as far as that goes, you will have to wait a little for more details.I'm a bit annoyed about this, he's hyped up DoW as being something significant on par with Cathay, at least in terms of rules if not models, up until now and then it turns out that they're some shitty half baked Empire AoI which sounds like an afterthought in its own book

>>96126157Yeah no, all of mantics models look like some bargain bin toys, as bad as gw can get theyll never be as consistently bad as mantic

At best the two are equally bad

Which is fine, we are in a good place and GW focus often produces worse results.
>>96123654How did they fucked up soo much? The new hats look like plastic cups, but it was CA who did chorfs justice.
>>96126228So why do they use swords then?
Swords are related to Gazul
>>96126193People buy the figures.
Because they like them.
>>96126221Don't be a goddamn schizo, faggot.
>Border Princes
What does that even mean in context of being an Army of Infamy? We have no Border Prince character models or unique units?
Is it really just supposed to be Empire units + Bretonnian Exiles and Dogs of War mercs?
What about Tilea, Estalia, and the rest?
>>96126257because swords are pretty cool
>>96125807>>96125822>>96125830How the fuck is GW so consistently awful with picking their base faction colour schemes. Probably from the same mind of the genius who decided the aos black orc faction should be painted bright yellow.
>>96126257>So why do they use swords?hammers are associated with normal dwarfs and normal ancestor gods, so they hate them and the only new chuardin model with a hammer is allowed to carry one because he's reconsecrated it in dwarf blood or something.
A faction of smiths allergic to hammers.
>>96126206Do you think he made that post? Are you fucking retarded? Wait don't answer that
>>96126267But if they don't use Axe and hammer due to their association with the Ansestor gods, why are they using a weapon associated with an Ancestor god?
just makes the new Chorfs even dumber
>>96126263Post your dudes your eternally assblasted faggot.
>>96126264Honestly sounds like a lazy way to make 0 models and tempt consumers to buy more of existing product. The classic soup push. Let's see what they do with it so far sounds like just emp/bret 1 special unit and probably a few magic items.

Funnily enough they all play Warhammer there as well, I asked why they all play the same faction and the mission leader (who played my faction) said "I honestly don't know, there's just something about that faction that people of a certain complexion and socioeconomic background love. Science is yet to explain it"
Which I thought was really interesting, do you think you could shed any light on why you all pick the same faction with your first hand lived experience?
They all look like shit but at least the armies over there were painted, you should give it a go anon
>>96126257maybe they're not mad at gazul. he is just kinda the god of the dead, far as i can find the only thing he really hates is undead, doesnt say anything about dislike or enmity towards the chorfs
>>96126128>>96126105Are the lists really that diverse?
>>96126258I do not believe that
>>96126310Replying desperately? Fucking hell Perryfag just end your life and let your supposed family have a chance to be happy.
>>96126254NTA, but my guess is they didnโt fully commit to one design philosophy and is tread tried to find a middle ground that does not exist.
They really want to invoke the old Chorfs, but they wanted them to be AoS Chorfs that only took parts of the old fantasy range and then cranked them to 11.
But, they wouldnโt go all to one camp or the other so you get a half and half faction that doesnโt really please anyone.
Imagine cooking for a meat lover that wants prime rib and a vegetarian who wants a salad so your solution is to cut up random parts of a steak and throw that into a bowl of tomatoes, cucumber, and random sauce neither guy likes
So with objectives now being a thing and infantry being good am I right that a fat block of grave guard with necromancer support, characters, corpse cart and bsb is just an unshiftable game winning death star
>>96126362and make the sauce homosexual forngood measure
>>96126330They met on retards4retards.com, i rag on them a lot but I love them a lot and I love my brother.
But I actually went to a 4th world country and asked what factions they play (they play with pieces of bark and their own feces), I didnt know what language they spoke so i couldnt discern their lazy leaching ape language but i could tell by their arcane journals that they were playing your faction.
needless to say when i played against them I tabled them turn 1 and they made me their god-king.
Now if you excuse me one of my my topless wives walked in with me 7 pm caviar and lobster dinner, im going to eat it all like a big boy before i fuck her, missionary
>>96126350People buy Kharadrons and Fhyre Slaiers and you're shocked others buy things that don't look as bad.
>>96126362>took parts of the old fantasy range and then cranked them to 11.Nothing they showed was cranked to 11. They dialed it all back to a 6 at best.
>>96126366It might be especially with crumble regens, at worst an extremely hard to shift block.
>>96126380Feel bad for you, that's still my biological mum with her body horror surgical cock.
Anyway here's one of my models, post yours fag
>>96126361keep projecting schizo
also you missed a post
>>96125995
>>96126292>Honestly sounds like a lazy way to make 0 models and tempt consumers to buy more of existing product. The classic soup push. Let's see what they do with it so far sounds like just emp/bret 1 special unit and probably a few magic items.>GW is greedy because they're requiring you to kit bash models and giving you more ways to use your armyI swear if they started giving away models for free people would still claim it's some kind of greedy conspiracy
>>96126338Easiest to read full list of units I can find

Off the top of my head you have.

>>96126397gw models are all very sharp and high casting quality regardless of artistic meritcs, mantic models are all doughy dogshit AND artistically terrible
>>96126413Its pretty good for someone with parkinson's, this ones still a wip so its a little messy, like your dads mutilated pussy penis
>>96126424No models, no life. Truly the biggest faggot perry.
>>96126436A polished turd is still a turd.
>>96126442I take it back anon this is actually a bit better than the paintjobs the third world oogaboogas do with sticks and mud
>>96126436Some of that quality is starting to get really debatable. Picrel is just kind of shit in general.
The heresy leviathan dread I finished has some bad gap lines simply because GW decided a part that could have easily been one peace should be 3/4 to the detriment of the sculpt
>>96126442is that base made out of one of your own shits?
>>96126471What is that? It's rotten.
>>96126228I'm betting on hashut being one of gazul's sons, so brother to skavor, making chorfs and skaven cousins.
>>96126413>Same beast anon from 40kI was thinking about getting into tow but if the world is really that small im avoiding this shithole
>>96126465Thank you, and I wouldnt be able to guess your model was made by a fat retard who was born from a dickhole
>>96126478Every model I own has a part of me, one way or another.
>>96126481The most recently shown off war cry warband. Basically khorne worshiping battlefield scavengers
https://www.warhammer-community.com/en-gb/articles/5bhawyez/kamandoras-blades-have-come-to-scavenge-skulls-from-the-depths-of-embergard/
The idea is kind of cool, but man they look bad.
>>96126485I haven't posted in 40kg for yonks so I don't think it was me.
Last post might have been my Deldar Mandrakes a couple months back?
>>96126507And I thought the DoK warband was tragic. Good lord.
>>96126471>>96126507>>96126520Damn underworlds usually puts out great stuff.
Compare these guys to the previous khorne warband (picrel). Even if you don't like the aesthetic choices of the old one, the technical quality of the sculpts are comparatively on a whole other level
>>96126427I mean its just a business thing, low cost for increased profit. I don't blame them for doing this to stretch out releases but what I see happening is they make a one off souplist, then delete it later and those anons who expect eternal support blow up.
>>96126445Don't bother replying his only life is desperately seeking attention here
>>96126485Not that you were earnest but you won't be missed
>>96126499For me is probably plenty of skin thanks to superglue and clumsy hands.
>>96124788>What will it take for you to never buy another GW product again?Already happened. In 2021 I spent about ยฃ1500 to get 500-1000 points of every 40k army I didn't already own, put them in storage for future projects, and called time on gw.
>or, if you already stopped buying GW shit, what did it?Some of these made me stop and some renewed my decision to stop, but here you go:
- constant price rises and shrinkflation
- anti-hobbyist models (foot moulded to base, ankle moulded to shin and front of chest, etc)
- scale creep in general
- more and more unnecessary detail on models
- primaris marines in general
- the move to crappy digital art that's reused in every codex since 8th
- C&Ding fan animations, art etc while pretending to be all about their community
- "you will not be missed"
- the move to a 3-year cycle
- erosion of grimdark aesthetic, replaced with generic sci-fi and WoW blandness
- genderswapping named characters
- in the cadian refresh almost 100% of officers were female
- fantasy factions looking like modern day California
- the departure of Duncan and Peachy, replaced by two women with dyed hair and a bunch of tattoos
- the purging of all their painting and hobby tutorials when they launched their new website
- total loss of modularity from models (no separate legs/torso/arms/heads)
- they insist on keeping flip top paint pots that spill or dry out far easier than bottles (exactly why they still do it)
- pandering to the competitive crowd in general with all the anti-hobby effects that brings
- books that are out of date before they've hit the shelves
I've hit the limit but could go on. These days I still spend ยฃ200-300 every month on hobby stuff (paints, resin, STLs, books, terrain materials), but I make sure absolutely zero of it goes to gw. I've considered buying TOW bits to show willing but each time I do, they pull another stunt like using AI to maliciously C&D generic fantasy STLs or introduce black female chaos dwarfs. No thanks.
>AoS receives world of warcraft dwarf models
>40k receives starcraft dwarf models and a hot topic marine
>horus heresy doesn't matter since the game system and community is having an apocalyptic meltdown, getting literal EA tier day 1 DLC
>old world gets some nice tomb kings sculpts and a few supplements offering narrative features, a new gamemode, dragon wives, and alternative army lists
I think we won bros
>>96126627Nah, hot topic marine is fucking awesome. Today's takeaway is that AoS took a massive L.
>>96126627>>40k receives starcraft dwarf models
To be fair the squat heroes they just got look good and the emo marine model is a surprisingly cool sculpt despite the over the top concept.
>>96126587>I spent about ยฃ1500 on 40kYeah that'll show them anon
>>96126587>all these reasons >to just cope away with how he ALMOST bought TOWsounds to me like your a fucking bitch anon
>>96126627>tomb snoresIm happy for the narrative book but I dont care for undead humans
I've made big strides assembling my skaven, anons. Turns out, that new warpblaster thing is perfectly kitbashable with the wlc barrel
Don't engage with vendettards
>>96124449So the dragon emperor is playing CK3?
>>96126258Serious answers only please, we're talking about Mantic here.
>>96126811the dragon emperor has been fucking absent for hundreds of years by the time of the old world and anon is just a colossal faggot spouting bullshit.
>>96126627Other than the iron hand character (their box is trash) and 1 load out of bull centaurs I think not a single other reveal comes close to the redone liche/kings. Even getting 2 books is on par with the others. This wasn't a wishlisters dream but we got stuff to eat.
>>96126925Yeah, those characters are rock solid, even erect, additions to the TK range. Would love to get a settra of that quality.
>>96126978Settra is already a flawless sculpt that couldn't possibly get improved by a plastic version with thickass features.
It's the chariot itself that would need go get improved, if anything.
>>96125017>2025>using pedoskyanon...
>>96126627The emo marine is kinda the only chapter master miss.
I wasn't really a fan of initial votann but this wave is mostly cool.
I think most AoS fans are happy with the chorfs.
The new tomb kings are cool and the arcane journals probably will be good too. A lil sad we didn't get some ravening hordes superfaction AoI but oh well.
Horus Heresy saw jump pack marines they already saw and another book to buy that tells you that you can make your saturnine into command squads which wasn't in the libre to begin with for some reason.
I think the only loser is heresy.
>>96126627I think AoS took the biggest L today with the incredibly meh chaos dwarfs. Biggest L of recent memory is still HH with the 3.0 debacle thobeit.
Southern Kingdoms getting an army of infamy greatly increases the odds of DoW right?
>>96125807still hate the sharp angles on the horns, why cant they just be horns and not look like one of those cheesy as seen on TV knives
>>96127074>Southern Kingdomssouthern kingdoms aren't a thing
tilea is the only nation that matters down there and it's not governed by kings
>>96125841its amazing that TOW got the sentinels that look good in almost any color scheme and AOS consistently gets this garbage that looks like garbage in any color scheme.
i mean, its better but it still looks like a world of warcraft boss
>>96127083>why cant they just be hornscurves are scary to the toddler customer, it could only possibly think of painting a model with edge highlights
>Cathay kino
>tomb kings kino
How do we keep dodging these bullets that keep hitting AoS?
>>96126587>introduce black female chaos dwarfs.oh no, not a heckin black person!!!! literal white genocide!
>>96127074I fear it might be as close as we get to a stand alone DoW for the foreseeable future.
>>96127101>sentinels Do they? I mean it's hard to make them look bad but outside that one guy who fucked up an arm making his and just replaced the arm with a tree i haven't seen anything that's better than average.
Well you got me leaker troll. You got me.
>>96126547underworlds is known as a place where they experiment with new ideas but also where they put their model tests for new sculptors out to try to make some money off of them. my guess is the new khorne retards are an example of a failed sculpt test that they're trying to salvage some cash from, because as you can see with the 2 new underworlds factions they showed today, it didnt effect either of those and they're both up to the old underworld standard of fairly high quality.
>>96127131As far as I can tell whatever skeleton crew they have working on the redhead stepchild of the system GW clearly doesnโt care about seem to generally care and understand what they are doing.
The only fall on their face moments Iโve seen with old world beyond the dogshit release time has been the old Bret model they should have probably just left in the desk drawer they found it in and I didnโt really feel much of Cathayโs line, but I was never going to give a shit about them regardless.
>>96127190>foot knights>bone croc dragonThere were a couple of stinkers alright
>>96127190>>96127213I think the foot knights are pretty bad. The empire foot character is awful too. Thatโs about it. I love everything else.
>>96127213Bone Croc Dragon is dumb only because they should have just gone full Croc or at least called it a winged basilisk, sure dragons exist and it makes sense that their corpses would be used as undead mounts (i wonder if seeing the TK raising dragons is what scared the Dragon Emperor about Nagash so much), but it hurts the flavor of the faction.
>>96127213I legitimately forgot about both of those.
My friend group even has a guy who bought the TK box and never fielded that thing because he didnโt feel a need to
>>96127184Yeah you're probably right that's pretty much what I think too.
The new centaurs are great, so they've clearly got at least some people there who know what they're doing. I wonder if you could you use these as wild riders ?
>>96127213I like the bone croc dragon. Annoying to paint though, especially if you glue it to the base beforehand.
>>96127131>human kino I mean theyโre both fairly boring. Iโm happy about that new wood elf character though.
Oh waitโฆ.
>>96127272Probably deserves at least a head swap.
>>96127291It doesnโt look much different from what wild riders have though?
>>96125017they're going to hate you for this because le X is now le BASED but only the "following" tab of my /awg/ and /hwg/ specific account which is locked because of bots remains usable
>>96127184>>96127272I vaguely remember some GW source saying the warbands are treated as an opportunity for the art department to kind of just do whatever the fuck between scheduled designs while internally they are viewed as a sort of limited production run never meant to stick around explaining why so many are gone from prosecution despite not being that old.
How much has GW spent on molds they donโt use again just for the warbands? There is an absolute amount of them OOP now
>>96122736Somebody out there is going to use the snake skeleton to give their tomb king a skeleton dick, I just know it.
>>96127301I try not to look at wood elves
>>96126587>I've considered buying TOW bits to show willing but each time I do, they pull another stunt like using AI to maliciously C&D generic fantasy STLs or introduce black female chaos dwarfs. No thanks.Buying/not Buying a product purely because you like/dislike the brand for reason unrelated to the product is the most consumer brained thing I can think of lol.
>>96127301The wild riders are pretty decent sized but I think these would like fine for wildriders.
>>96127074Southern kingdoms (Assuming you mean estalia/tilea) aren't getting a AoI anon, border princes are.
>>96127361I really don't see what's "consumer" about not consuming shit from a company you dislike.
>>96127382Because you mentally mark yourself as a consumer. You see something you like and instead of buying it, you think โ no if I consume this it will send a message of support to producer I dislike โ. Instead of just buying a cool mini because you think itโs cool you mentally make yourself a consumer.
>>96127412That makes zero sense, anon. Mentally even.
>>96127412I'd say the opposite is true.
>>96127423Ontologically, even.
So I guess any narrative and timeline movement will be through the journals will be through the journals instead of big campaign books?
A little lame we arenโt going to get some big honking book to describe all sorts of details, but cool if everything is within smaller, but way cheaper journals you can easy skip or throw a little money at to have.
>>96127451Whenever the siege of prague comes about it might warrant a campaign book.
>>96127467I wouldnโt be surprised if that gets
>generic order name book>generic destruction name book>only get the one for the armies you play or get both for the full narrative
>>96127485I'd be sad. I was reading some of the old campaign books recently and I really hope we get at least one proper campaign book.
Wouldn't whatever wakes up the undead come before Pragg?
>>96127527They seem quite content to jump around the timeline so I wouldn't be shocked to see the great war and then some other earlier campgains focused on.
>>96127527I wouldn't expect anything on that, TK are quite awake and VC are legacy.
>>96127505I see it as a bit of a give and take.
On one hand you get lesser books that wonโt hit as good as a true campaign book
On the other way cheaper, easier to skip, and down the line when the edition changes or GW outright kills the game the journals will still be cheap,
As someone who loves most of the heresy black books they where expensive back in the day and ungodly now.
>>96127272i think its probably mostly veteran sculptors trying out new or niche ideas they arent sure if they want to actually do a full range expansion for, and then sometimes those get expanded on (like gitmob) and sometimes they dont. given that this is the second kurnothi set they've done i wouldnt be surprised to see them get a full expansion in sylvaneth sometime.
if you want to use them as wild riders, you've got 3 models here in the new set, plus the old set had 1 centaur, so that gives you 4 poses, which is probably enough to do a small to medium 5-10 man unit without getting too egregious with the repeats, especially if you can repose the arms.
that said, i also saw some guy once do a wild rider centaur conversion so you could also mix a box of those in and they would probably gel together pretty well, though im not sure if there is a significant size/scale difference between them or not, but the armor and weapon style is nearly identical
>empire cathay army
>in lore cathay sails across the world to rescue "the most powerful of all the realms of Men" from getting their lunch money stolen by some norscans
>the army list will be choosing between better cathay units and shitty empire units
>probably also going to play a significant part of how Magnus stabilized the Empire and broke the siege of Praag.
I kneel to the overwhelming genius of GW, truly it is the Chinese century.
>>96127832Asian women will use literally any excuse to be around white men.
>>96127382Because than you're judgemental isn't based on what the product is, just the brand associated with it. Not buying something you like because you don't like the brand is the mirror image of buying a product you don't want just because you want to support the company.
>>96127423>>96127436It made perfect sense, you're just that stupid.
>>96128420>>96129507Refusing to support people who hate you is just part of being a normal and intelligent human being.
