I'm so glad they're expanding on the Anvil instead of banishing it. It's interesting that, compared to narrative quest mechanics like 40k's Crusade and 3rd ed's Paths, they seem to be focusing on customizing and growing your units instead.

Al-Saqr posted:Whats path to glory? Is this the crusade mode for AoS? Path to Glory is the Crisade equivalent, yeah. Last edition it was mostly about getting territories that gave you bonuses and trying to do quests to earn bonuses. The territory focus was a bit awkward and involved a lot of random rolls combined with bookkeeping. The new angle is you will get to customize your units as they take part in battles, giving them new abilities based on which customization path they’re on. Anvil of Apotheosis will be in the battletomes, and it lets you create entirely new custom heroes to lead your forces. Overall I’m a huge fan of this as it will make it easier to do stories that don’t revolve around land seizing.

That's the main rub about Crusade and Path to Glory narratives, I find. The faction mechanics are cool, but also pigeonhole things a little. It also kinda feels weirdly disconnected sometimes? In 40k a GSC, Tyranid, and Tau player can all be fighting to control planets, but they're all different planets and none of them are the place where armies are actually battling. More neutral stuff like the WAAAAAGH! points rule, though. I hope Games Workshop gives AoS players orky ructions.
