>Thread question:
What's a minor lore tidbit you really like?
>tq
The fact most Ironjawz punch their armor into shape, instead of using smiths
>>96268095 (OP)>TQApparently the new IDK book details how they make their arms and armor a bit. It involves heating the metal like normal and then repeatedly switching the Ethersea localized around the blade on and off so that the pressure of the deep itself becomes a "hammer". Among the mild disappointments in some of the other lore tidbits, this one is fun and ridiculous but still cool.
>>96268095 (OP)>TQWhat do we consider minor here?
Original proof of concept on the left, two new guys on the center and right. I'm definitely happy with more yellow on the face, but I'm neutral with the yellow on the backpack. Not sure if that's a slight improvement, a slight disprovement, or just breaking even.
but gotdamn a bit of snow on the bases really kicked these bastards up a notch
>>96268125silver backback looks a little more "balanced" with the weapons making a triad, but i agree about the mask looking best on the middle and right.
>>96268125What colors did you use for the yellow and blues?
They go well together.
>>96268140Yeah I think you're right. Plus the backpacks being metallic will tie them in with the boats and the balloon boys better
>>96268295Blue is Thunderhawk Blue with a wash of Drakenhof Nightshade, yellow is Zamesi Desert with a wash of Seraphim Sepia and then a fairly damp drybrush of Averland Sunset
Are Disciples of Tzeentch getting a new book anytime soon? Or did they get one this edition? Did they get a pity model?
>>96268350Sweet thanks bro.
I literally bought those 2 main colors for mine a few days back. But every picture of the color scheme seems to look a little different, so I wasn't sure I picked right.
>>96268095 (OP)>What's a minor lore tidbit you really like?That DoK have children with humans so often the response is "it happens" from others in their sect.
>>96268379the breeding pits are real...
>>96268380That's great. There is still some hope for something good. DoT range fucking sucks. It's probably the worst of the bunch in terms of units.
>>96268391It's just incel coomer fanfiction.
>>96268409Nah, that's sex with Morathi on a daily basis as form of worship.
The snake form.
>>96268418>The snake form.not a thing anymore, its 2 different morathis now.
Yeah its dumb, and her not transforming is lame
>>96268399What would you like to see? Personally, I'd like to see something akin to the old Chaos Forsaken.
>>96268443tzeentch needs his fucking chaos warriors.
Forsaken tho, could be a cool take on chosen, (see skullreapers, blightkings, and 40k greater possessed)
>>96268443Definitely more mortals. I would like an update like Hedonites Part 2. The current range relies too much on old ass daemons. I would like to see mortal, human cavalry, heavy infantry, magic archers, maybe a demonic tzeentch cannon, some heroes and a centerpiece hero. Maybe an update to the Mutilah Beast.
If it's a pity unit, yeah a 10 man Squad of Forsaken-like Heavy Infantry (Chosen of Tzeentch) would be ok but DoT really need more.
>>96268351In 5e all factions will receive a revamp or at least that's what people are saying.
>>96268582>In 5e all factions will receive a revamp or at least that's what people are saying.I doubt it.

>>96269147They asked AI to design an evil dwarf artillery cannon and that's what the AI designed based on the german (evil) howitzer.
>>96269153or an artist took 2 seconds to grab a reference. the pic related was one of the first things that comes up when you type ww1 artillery into google.
idk why you would think GWs designers would need to resort to AI for aos when they've been knocking out of the park on their designs for pretty much 10 years straight

Gonna take a wild guess here and say when CoS gets its tome, all mentions of elfs and dorfs will be dropped and it will be 100% humans.

>>96269553The badmoon spoke to me once. It said....
https://files.catbox.moe/e603kx.pdf
>>96269893>The badmoon spoke to me onceit's incredible how that trailer characterised skragrott more and better than any actual page of fluff
>>96269916 Dawnbringers and broken realms both having short stories where he beats the shit out of greater daemons in a mushroom-fueled panic comes pretty close, desu
Any scans of the 4e khorne, Idoneth or kharadron tomes out yet? I know theyāre all really new, but worth asking about
>>96269971but that's just him happening to do stuff, cool stuff sure, but it starts and ends there
here we have one reason why this character rose to power, because the moon spoke to him, and not others
a reason why he has this even more obsessive mentality, and almost a grudge against the moon, because he did so only once and he's trying to understand everything about it, myths, legends, prophecies, all to understand where it will be and have a better chance to hear it again
and then we have the moon behaving in a way that actually shows conscious pettiness, by answering him just to have a laugh at him, and not just randomly doing destructive stuff that goblins end up benefitting from or interpreting as its will, it speaking is in its own way momentous and horrific
and it does all that all in a few lines, it's brilliant
>>96270000>inb4 "well plenty of goblins will claim the bad moon talks to them, how can that alone bring him to power and renown?"speaking of
>>96268095 (OP)>>Thread question:>What's a minor lore tidbit you really like?I don't think many have picked up on the fact that the magic rocks the gits use is a lie detector, it glows when close to lies or even thoughts about trickery, which in grot society means it's going to glow all the fucking time
We're not given the specifics on whether it glows only relative to what someone thinks it's the truth or relative to actual objective truths, it's probably very inconsistent about that due considering the wacky nature of greenskins and their gods, but here we're talking about pieces of the bad moon themselves, it's quite fair to say they will react relative to what's the actual truth regarding what the bad moon did, if it even remotely wants so
Ok fuck it, I can't take the gloomspite gameplay anymore. All the 4+ hits you can imagine. And rolling for almost all my abilities also sucks.
What is an army where I can consistently roll on 2+2+. And what other reasons are that I should play that army?
>>96269405This single ogre is literally carrying the entire weight of multiracial CoS on his shoulders.
Powerful.
In terms of lore, models and gameplay AoS peaked in 2nd edition.
I still enjoy the current stuff but 2nd was kino.
>>96270128I still can't believe all that shit got squatted
I have soul wars but never filled out the units because stormies are a relatively low priority project of mine so it's all just useless now even as proxies I guess.
>>96268095 (OP)>tqThat the spirits of the mountains are actually earth elementals who are blind but the cow masks let them channel magic to be able to percieve vision.
>>96270128The good gameplay shit came with malign portents. But 2e summoning was by far the dumbest shit I've seen in this game. Tzeentch casually playing 2800 worth of models because "it's free". Not to mention armies having summoning that it made no fucking sense. Don't forget a faction got TWO battletomes before some factions got 1. Lore is debatable. The whole "chambers" shit didn't help SCE beat the sigmarines allegations and nothing happened for anyone outside of death. Revisionism is a hell of a drug.
do any of you gentlemen have the kharadron battletome?
>>96270223Quality scans of IDK, KO and BoK have yet to surface online.

>>96270613Delusional thinking that you will not play the other 3 flavors first before this ever happens
>>96270613they are getting squatted because there are not going to be city aelfses anymore period
>>96269052The translation is so bad holy fuck
>>96269109The current cannon is so lame
>>96269893> It's said 'fuck niggers'EASY ON THE RACISM
>>96270524Around urban elves never relax
>>96270536shit, I haven't picked up a WD in years. I didn't know they had cool stuff in them now
>>96270676I don't understand people who use the machine translation but then don't clean it up at all. Just a quick common sense pass would make the comic so much more readable.
>>96269109My problem is the lack of gears and steam engine aesthetics. Chorfs had a real grimy industrial revolution thing going on, this just looks like a generic mechanical gizmo. The wide wheels are another part of the problem.
>>96270725They also had pre-Khorne Khul, demon Khul and OBR leader of Petrifex Elite warscrolls earlier this year.
>>96270731That grimy industrial stuff was mostly a forgeworld thing though, nuchorfs are emulating the even older chorf aesthetic more, though also obviously giving it their own spin. Personally the warmachines were the only thing i liked about legion of azgorh, so I wanted some more trains and shit like that. Oh well.
>>96270128I like 4th ed's base rules the best of any edition so far(especially with the GHB out now), and I'm one of the few that like the removal of direct lore connections to sub factions(battle formations).
But I miss 2nd ed's customization. I don't understand how they seem to struggle with balancing some artifacts that are supposed to be from each realm.
Just fucking put points on some of them if they are too strong. You'll sell more minis too if you allow some flying hero to become a wizard for example.
>>96270792I don't see it.
>>96270135I mean I wouldn't say useless. Everything from soul wars couls easily proxy as a current stormcast unit. They just loik cooler too because they have robes.
>>96269916It really is a fucked up concept, a god speaks to you once and then never again.
>>96270815I wanted those stupid rocket hats so bad man
>>96270963The bad moon does a little bit of trolling
>>96270999I gotta find a copy of bad loon rising, I've been looking for something to list to while I finish off the last 4 models for my shitty gitz list.
>>96270792>nuchorfs are emulating the even older chorf aestheticnot really, no
>>96271137I can see what the anon is going for, I think because a large chunk of "new chaos dwarf" stuff had those round bubble helmets from Forgeworld as opposed to the more elaborate other version. While simultaneously going for their own thing with big cow theming.
>>96270792They're inarguably more removed from the classic chorfs than the forge world ones were.
>>96270128I didn't get to play 2e, but I enjoyed the middle ground 3 was between 2e and 4e. What I do wish these editions would take from 2e is a larger map with more units on the board. Tired of playing a game that continually shrinks and no longer resembles a war game.
>>96270809They are 90% good, but some things should change.
>Combat range shouldn't be 3" universally. There should be second row attacking for infantry keywords. Monsters should get 3". Otherwise 1". At the very least they should have still specificed range on weapons but made everyone 3". At this point they've put themselves in a corner.
The rest of the complaints are more toward the advanced combat module, but still...
>Counter charge should have a range limitation, power through should require ending in combat with the unit you started with or into a new combat.Counter charge as it exists, limits how designers can create units or especially melee armies. It's too open ended, and its strangling army identities. Power through feels like a win more mechanic for large models and not really sensical outside of chariots (which could have an archetype rule that they can end outside of combat).
>Manifestations shouldn't zone things out of deepstrike, and they shouldn't be chargeable (same with terrain), nor tie things into combat.This feels jank. Armies are already smaller this edition, people don't enjoy fighting things that don't exist. Manifestations should be strong on their own merits, not because they just waste people's time or their foot print is gigantic.

>>96271164I figure they were probably told to go more based on the total war stuff for inspiration since that's the most recent chorf content we've gotten. (Which I reckon the blood bowl stuff was going for too. It ain't a one to one but I can see what they're shooting for.
Sculptor for Helsmiths did an interview recently and said he based them on WW1 era Iranian royal guard
>>96271183doesn't look like they did beyond the scale armor, which isn't even translated properly
>>96271229>Sculptor for Helsmiths did an interview recentlybullshit
\
>>96271229That would explain the little sashes, got no clue on anything else.
>>96271233I mean I can see it, hat has the same general shape, only thing that they did was add those front plates that one anon hates that have the gem and cover the nose, no scalemail on the arms but the gloves and general undershirt are the same, even the leather cuirass on the chest instead of just more chainmail. I might just be falling into the trap of coming up with an idea and matching things to fit that bias but I do think there's somethin' there.
Side note, I'm not happy about the goofy sleeveless blunderbuss units because clearly they designed it around the idea of it being a flamethrower. But if I did do them as flamethrowers I could give them welding masks and that'd look pretty sick....
>>96271171>Power through feels like a win more mechanic for large models and not really sensical outside of chariotsAs an IDK player, power through is an incredible movement tool I can use to slingshot my units where I need them, even eels, because 4 wounds each puts them above most infantry.
>>96271164The hellcanon is such a hideous piece of shit. I can't belief people shill that as some kind of iconic WFB design.
Mind if I ask a gameplay question, how does one effectively screen with chaff units? I'm dumb as fuck and like running giant models and monsters and I'm also wondering how one gets AROUND screens. I primarily play death so I don't have any guns to just shoot shit dead. I think my biggest annoyance is with how the battlefields are laid out I can't get a giant flying bat into the backline because my opponent just lays their dudes out in a way to leave no room for it to sneak in via flight.
>>96271183TWW3 chorfs are basically just fanfiction versions of chorfs, not really why you're comparing them to those.
man these models really weren't good
>>96271267exactly, it's a free trade for units that already have better statting than many battleline infantry. It also shuts down any attempt to do anything other than run reinforced hammers, there's not much point of a tarpit or an anvil if people just walk away.
Giving it to everyone now would make something like Ironjawz or Beastclaw raiders feel less unique, because they are factions that feel like they should be able to power through.
>>96271257My main problem with blunderbuss units is how fucking huge their blunderbusses are, I mean yeah its probably so they can swap them for flamethrowers, but still!
>>96271291They're "idealized" chorfs. Taking design cues from I imagine forgeworld and OG stuff while still keeping the general "feeling" of chorf in check. But I don't entirely hate the old models, I do genuinely enjoy the old metal era stuff, they've got a lot of charm to them and remind me of playing heroquest with my dad.
>>96271287The map is so small that even with screens you should be able to charge & pile into something juicy. You don't necessarily have to attack the target you pile into, just whatever is within 3".
If they're so well screened that you can't get anywhere, then that usually means they're just sitting way too far back to do anything meaningful next turn without you charging into the screens. Just get on the points and play for objectives and make them scramble to get everything up the board.
Or you can just crash into the screens, kill just enough of them, and target something to power through away.
>>96271291I don't know why you are spoiling that anyone with eyes should agree.
There is a certain 'OLD GOOD NEW BAD' crowd of insufferable fags who really need some kind of chemical treatment for their brain disorders if they think garbage like this looks good
>>96271315Still if you're talking about the new stuff being truer to the old models it's best to compare them to the actual models rather than CA's re imagining.
>>96271305I feel like if you replaced it with something less stubby and give them sleeves they wouldn't look half bad. Pardon the god awful mspaint and random gun.
>>96271322Interesting... So if they're sitting on their ass too far back doing nothing, just let them do that and do what I can. The only issue is last couple of times I've been fighting a DoK player who makes me go first everytime (less drops) and there's this paranoia in my head since every round they just get stronger and more killy, and I don't wanna move my guys down range so it's easier for them to get killed either, which fittingly means it wouldn't hurt to have some screening units... Okay I think I'm getting it a bit more.
I wish I fought more standard armys.
>>96271351Whats a standard army to you? You will find they all have varying degrees of bullshit that a bunch of naked elves with like 1 cauldron rolling around isn't that weird.
>>96271305The worst part is that the flamethrowers probably suck as per GW rules flamethrowers can never have good rules.
Can we expect a refreshed models for Plaguebearers anytime soon?

>>96271375Nah this was a no elf list for DoK, they had 2 reinforced blocks of snakes, snake hero, Morathi, reinforced bow snakes, and 5 of the warlocks that they would stretch vertically and move around to screen me from hitting them. Was an absolute shit show because Morathi is a blender and I can never determine how much I want to throw away into her to try to kill her, and since I'm death I'm limited in options to deal with her safely. As for standard I spose I don't know, other than the DoK I've fought all guns skaven, and all blood knights SBGL, I think my last normal match was months ago with just a lizard army with just a little bit of everything.
But you are right, and I can't complain (except about Morathi's stupid 3 damage a turn shit) I've got loads of bullshit in my armys. Katakros is a walking god, Chadakhur and the endless skeleton tarpits, Ushorann just in general and bring back a full block of reinforced bats in one go. I'm still (relatively) new so it's just learning the ropes at this point.
No N'kari or Azazel in Age of Sigmar is a bit odd.
>>96271495Would be interesting to have Azazel who actually knew Sigmar floating around, could be a fun little interaction until Sigmar flattens him like a cartoon.
>>96271291I genuinely like them, a lot more than most models of that era. However I do think if they never existed and gw made a totally new chaos dwarf army for age of sigmar that looked like them, they would get memed on harder than idoneth by grogs for their silliness. Similarily, if forgeworld never did their LoA line and age of sigmar went with that instead, people would complain about how boring and sterile they are compared to their previous incarnation.
>>96271411Nurgle is rumoured to get a good bit of love, pestigors seem likely but a plaguebearer refresh is also in the cards.
>>96271495Iirc nkari was only really a bl character no? I don't think it had rules or anything on the tabletop, at least not in 8th.
>>96271541>but a plaguebearer refresh is also in the cards.>I just painted 60 of themNOOOOOOOOO

>>96271589I mean seeing the new plaguebearers compared to the old I can't imagine it's gonna be too terribly different except maybe some more exciting poses and more goopy bits and bobs.
>>96271603Man the one birthing that fly on the left is so fucking sickening and I adore it.
>>96271608I do like that the giant tick is kinda just eating his brain, but I'm a big fan of the guy on the right with the Johnny Appleseed pouch that's just maggots.
>>96270113Stormcast can do it with finest hour and one of their multiple ways of getting +1 to hit. They get some reliability from prayers and their auto prayer artifact as well.
Slaves will get it with their khorne banner or hero fight with me and AoA.
Slaanesh you have +1hit and wound trait for your keeper, Shalaxi gets easy 2+/2+ vs heroes, +1 to wound spell, +1 to wound aura for Lord of Pain, +1 to wound from terrain, on demand exploding 6s which is virtual +1 to hit.
Nighthaunt get universal crit auto wound and multiple sources of +1 to hit and wound off their heroes. very easy to get +2/+2 bladegheist blobs with chainghast. Their book is eminent though.
>>96271164>inarguablyin your dreams maybe.
Does anyone think Fyreslayers will get a new Underworlds warband and if so will they get a cute Salamander.
>>96271171Power through is the only reason monsters aren't just shit cav. You think its nonsensical that a fucking dragon can't leave combat with some goblins?
>>96271603The tick thorugh brain one realy is great
Oh yeah baby I love a big map
>>96271277>look, mom, I'm being contrarian on the internet!
>>96271803NTA but it is an ugly model, and im usually into body horror. It'd be neat if they redid the concept.
Is the new Seraphon Spearhead fun to play?
>>96271851Yes it's one of the better ones. You get 2 thick ass infantry and a big ass monster that's tough to take down if you don't get fucked in the ass by yndrasta
>>96271698Fyreslayers and KO both have never gotten their singular UW warbands reprinted, I wouldn't completely rule it out.
It's just CRAPS?
FUCKING GAMBLING
>>96271698They love putting little animal companions in the underworlds warbands so I'm counting on it.
>>96271876Anon you're thinking of the old one with the carnosaur, this guy
>>96271851 is talking about the new one with the chameleons and salamander. Iirc it's a lot trickier to pilot and kind of on the weaker side but that's just what my buddies told me.
>>96271927They'd be adorable!
>>96270128Early 2e was the best in terms of rules and gameplay no contest, the only thing I disliked were the Endless Spells.
Still, my personal favourite is the 1st edition of the time when Malignant Portents were released. People can keep hating on the 1e but I will never forget how big was the hype when people realised the first General's Handbook finally made the game playable.
>>96269020kino
i cant wait
>>96271910what is this, path to glory?
>>96272079I love the concept of endless spells but I'm not a fan of how they're implemented now. It would be neat if it required a bit more effort but they actually did much more. I feel like having just a few be good and then the rest be completely eh feels a bit lame.
>>96271495They were literal whos without models before TWW
>>96272152Azazel had a model it just looked like hot shit. He also had a pretty decent roll in the Sigmar book trilogy. Dunno about N'kari though since yeah I think they were just a book only guy.
>>96271703I think it's nonsensical that powering through after charging into combat lets you move your full movement in any direction. Usually when something charges into combat it intends to stay into combat, except chariots which want to keep charging.
If you want to spin it as "I'm a motherfuckin dragon I can do anything" then they should stop selling it as a wargame because it's not. Monsters also suck, they don't make much sense in a game without a strength paradigm and probably need something more distinguishing.
This is on tier with if you're in combat your unit volunteers to not attack (which you can't). It's not thematic and its immersion breaking.
>>96272167>>96272152That is Azazel.
N'kari was the Forgeworld Keeper of Secrets
>>96272275Fuck really?
Also man GW really did nail that model, since I both love and hate it.
>>96272190Its not immersion breaking, if you knew anything about cavalry tactics its exactly how they were used. Marigniano for example.

>2 units of 5
>only 1 musician
>only 1 banner
>only 1 champion
>>96272291Sure if you want to play that angle then maybe they should take mortals on impact against any units with spears?
Or maybe infantry should be pointed to resemble actual armies where they make up the bulk of the army.
Just saying, a mechanic that basically gives out free trades with no significant downside is unhealthy for the game. Retreat and charge already exists to represent cavalry, giving every single unit in the game outside battleline infantry essentially the same skill is ridiculous.
>>96272399because it's actually one unit of 10, dumbo
>>96272399>2 units of 5Says who?
>>96272093Yeah you can build some crazy busted weapon for your general if you want but you gotta roll to stack buffs. So much of this book is kino I'll be just rolling them into my normal games at the shop with people who want to indulge in some flavor
>>96272402Realism was your argument idiot. Apparently that has devolved into "I personally don't like it".
>>96271171>I didn't get to play 2e, but I enjoyed the middle ground 3 was between 2e and 4e.For me it's 2 > 1 > 4 > 3. No, I won't elaborate.
>>96272473Could you please elaborate?
No

Starting to think about seraphon more and more. Am I gonna need skinks in any capacity or can saurus focused lists scrape some wins? Iād still use the frogs fwiw
>>96269893>The badmoon spoke to me onceI can't fucking believe GW deleted the best trailer they ever released, greed fried their brains. What gain do they have on removing this kind of content? Idiots.
>>96272422And it still is. I stuck a "usually" in there, and you mentioned cav, and then I mentioned retreat and charge already exists as a mechanic to represent that.
They should probably rename power through to something like "strike and flee". People are always absolutely floored when I use it to retreat my 14" flying hero monster back to safety, or when they learn they can't actually move over enemy models when using it.
>>96272473That's cool, I think there's an edition for everyone and 4e definitely isn't mine. There's some armies where I could easily see them having a great time, this might be my favorite edition for stormcast (magical intervention + translocation legitimately made them 100x more fun to play as) or s2d. The armies I play that used to benefit a ton from weapon options or battleline synergies, or really wanted to play the long game, feel so empty and boring to play.
>>96272516It's not deleted it's just delisted (like a lot of trailers, for some reason)

>>96272523Sounds like you picked a fag army
>New job will pay for my gym membership and stuff like home weights.
>Suddenly far more money for my AoS army expansion.
Fuck yeah!
>>96272514Mostly Saurus is fine, as long as you take advantage of their good magic
>>96272542i mean one page rules or smashing the models into each other is always an option if 5e isn't like 4e
>>96272556Excellent. Thanks!
>>96270963>a god speaks to you once and then never again.You mean the bible?
>>96272567Age of Fantasy is pretty fun honestly.
>>96272533Oh shit thanks anon
>>96272548Based an lodgepilled
>>96272572Nta but yeah saurus are fine on their own, particularily aggradon riders. Might want to put some hunters of huanchi in there though, they're crazy good support for their price. In general seraphon aren't considered that good right now honestly, but for casual play it's not tooooo bad.
>>96272567OPR became my game of choice after I realized 4e won't bring us any closer to 2e.
>>96269122That thing is much bigger than I expected it to be holy shit
>>96272610>Based an lodgepilledGetting paid and rewarded for being healthy is amazing and I love it.
>>96272736Alternating activations have spoiled me. I still play AoS but Grimdark Future has taken over 40k completely for me.
>>96272736Please god tell me there's a code for this
>>96269122Has someone shooped the chorf artillery with tracks yet?
>>96269100Perhaps I was too harsh on the skull cannon
If the Steampunk Chorfs are called Kharadron, what are the other chorfs of the other factions called?
>>96272873?
Kharadron are order steampunk dwarfs
Zharrdron are chaos (industrial) dwarfs
Zharrgrim (?) I think is the fancy name for fyreslayers
>>96272966>Zharrgrim (?) I think is the fancy name for fyreslayersI'm pretty sure it's just their priests.
Trying to make a Pestilens list for 4th. 1000 Points.
Opinions?
x1 Grey Seer (proxied with Plague Priest model)
x40 Plague Monks
x40 Plague Monks
x1 Plagueclaw
x1 Plaguepack
x1 Warlock Engineer (going to try and convert something more fitting but no clue how to make a sniper plague rat lol)
>>96273078If I can convert a fitting Warlock Engineer might drop him for just a second Plagueclaw.
>>96273083Doesn't necessarily have to be a sniper, skaven can have alternatives. Could just give him a giant fuckoff wrench or something. I made some custom Master Moulders that I think turned out pretty neat a few years back.
Today I assembled my first set of Blightkings.
The problem is, there are so many options that I want to buy another kit.
>>96273233Feel free to keep 'em, I've been using bits and bobs from various kits just all over. Ya never know what something will come in handy!
>>96273233This is how they get you.
Interested in getting into AoS, but I wanna hear your guys' sales pitch on /yourdudes/ before I make a purchase.
>>96272399Ma'am that's the spearhead composition of the shitty little box.
It's four units and will cost, somehow, 210 dollars
>that one guy who built two units of blightkings identically
>>962733053d print trees?
>>96273310They're from Mantic Games' Haunted Woods terrain crate. I love 'em and they get used in so many games lol
http://manticgames.com/terrain-crate/fantasy/haunted-woods-terrain/
>>96273256Do you like Dwarfs? Do you like Elves? Do you like Humans? Do you like Friendship? Do you like Kitbashing an army from scratch like 40k Orks? Do you like the concept of learning lessons from a literal dead world hanging above your very head?
Because GW apparently doesn't.
I'd pitch you my army if it wasn't going to get its skin worn as a suit by next year, tops.
Do any of you play with square bases, even when the game is intended for round bases? Has it ever been a problem?
>>96273233Bet a recaster could get you covered, don't fall for their tricks.
>>9627332215 bucks not too shabby.
>>96273337I've got my friend to 3d print me stuff since there's some website that keeps changing names with 1 to 1 scans of dudes.
>>96272795It's a TV show not a JAV
>>96273453Why ya gotta break my coomer heart anon, but good to know at least.
>>96272736>new DoK heroes with existing troops
>>96273256Half naked femdom elf sluts in a matriarchy with monstergirls led by a bullshit literal deity that won't die out of spite.
>>96273330>Because GW apparently doesn't.Just buy new kit and get excited for new kit.
Man, they already came for HH. Sure TOW still has the rules say "kitbash, convert, have fun!" for now but the more that picks up steam the more cancer they'll force onto it.
>>96273256Imagine a glorious fiefdom ruled by a powerful king, they enjoy feasts, tournaments, and living in the lap of luxury. Kings and nobles go out on noble quests leading their people behind them to appease their glorious summerking.
now in reality it's a bunch of drooling cannibalistic freaks who are completely brainbroken into seeing everything as a happy pleasant fairytale while they root around in squallor eating rotting corpses, ruled by a giant super turbo schizo who's so crazy he has effectively deluded everyone around him into sharing his personal schizo delusions.
>>96273520Hint: you don't have to play the latest edition
All this shit is such self inflicted grief. Which isn't to say GW isn't retarded but you can just ignore them, the fix is right there.
>>96273541>Hint: you don't have to play the latest editionlmao
good luck
>>96273541One day I'll convince anyone to play anything but the latest GW product.
One day.
>>96273631Problem is just getting all the materials and if you have new stuff you wanna use that wasn't in said edition. It's not so bad for AoS just because not too much is coming out on the regular but still. but I can understand someone being hesitant.
>>96273541>male loneliness epidemic >"Just ask your friends to try it out?"
>>96273532Ushoran being so unfathomably schizo he radiates an aura of pure delusion that affects those around himself is so funny to me. Death really has the best characters.
>>96273642Thought the male loneliness epidemic was just a bunch of guys bitching about not getting laid, do people struggle to make friends or some shit?
>>96273652unfortunately olynder is utterly forgettable
>>96273654>do people struggle to make friends or some shit?there's no struggle, people simply don't make friends anymore
>>96273688She's not so bad, but it's kind of unfortunate (and very ironic) that she gets her thunder stolen by her infinitely more interesting subordinate kurdoss. The interactions between the two are top notch though.
>>96273688She's not as funny as Kurdoss is the secret, having a guy who tried to get to the top get so utterly mogged by the god of death just for shits and giggles is hilarious. Eternity of having 2 assholes taped to your ears to shit talk you constantly and blast a vuvuzela, you can't talk above a whisper, your army was brought back just to be sure to kill anything before you can even get the chance. THEN you don't even get to lead your faction, the saddest being in existence is now your wife, and also your boss.
I want to fuck Olynder so she wins ghostbowl.
