Baaically any colour except the gold they use works. Even just darker gold. Will likely do mine silver.

I really hope that the endless spells get separate releases as having to buy the rules multiple times if you want extra minis (or rely on eBay scalpers) doesn't sound like a fun time.

Likely they'll part them out into smaller sets at a later date. Depends on how the spruces are cut.

That teaser video for the new boxed set was pretty drat neat. I'm guessing that the original boxed set + the old Start Collecting: Stormcast box + this new starter will combine to make a pretty reasonable army in second edition so I may actually try to play a bit.

Anyone have a guesstimated price point? I forgot what I paid for the 40k Box Set of Dark Imperium which looks very similar. I think it was... 160ish but I might be completely wrong.

A close look at the factions provides your guide to each of the Grand Alliances. Learn how the disparate forces of Order forge common cause in the free cities, explore the serried hordes of Chaos or learn about Nagash’s dark schemes for the Mortal Realms. R.I.P Destruction, too cool for lore

Honestly gently caress Destruction, 4/6 people signed up to our new Sigmar tourny are using loving Beastclaws and I'm dreading it.

I'm going to go out on a limb and assume that each army will only have one of any given spell roaming around at any time. I could be wrong, but even for GW, it would seem crazy that that they would make you buy what is essentially a starter and hardcover rulebook more than once.

They apparently cost points so that's the limitation.

Had my first 1000pt game (I am not fast at painting) with my Iornjawz today against a Deathrattle army, had fun and like the synergy going on with my heroes and battlefield units but holy poo poo the army I was against was ridiculous. I thought Deathrattle were under powered or struggled in tournaments or something? Since the FLGS opened last year the Deathrattle player has literally only lost one game and that was due to the foot of gork exploding to a silly high number. For example: his list this evening was: 5 x Black Knights 10 x Grave Guard 40 x Skeleton Warriors 1 x Necromancer 1 x Wight King 2 x Banshees Those loving skeleton warriors were putting out anywhere from 20 to 250 attacks a turn a long with getting two 6+ saves for all his units on top of their normal saves. This is before getting to the grave sites covering the battlefield regenerating and replacing his killed models/units.

The original Fate/stay night stuff, like Unlimited Blade Works, is very good and pretty simple to follow. But when you get beyond that it's mainly just an excuse to come up with new merchandisable anime versions of historical characters.

Kung Fu Fist gently caress posted:sigmarines look dumb because of their stupid helmets and pauldrons, not because of their official paint scheme nah, I think it really is the paint and GW photos. A lot of the sculpts are really well done. For example: the same model by GW and someone else:   The GW gold with bright silver highlights and photos make everything look blown out and overexposed, and the details look really noisy. The composition of that mini is really good and comes out really well with better blocking on the colors.

Huh it looks like the New spells rules and stuff are actully cheaper then thought. Being $10 less then a start collecting. Also it does look like the start is the same as Dark Imperium 160 US.

In a straight fight the bones will kick your teeth in but it’s not hard to snipe the heroes or run circles around the slow skeletons to grab objectives or force him to leave gravesite auras.
