Nice to see some Goonhammer representation in the gallery of stuff on the stream. Picked up my Dominion box and I figure I’ll get to it on an upcoming week off. I nabbed a can of Runelord Brass for Yndrastra and I was wondering if it’d be a good undercoat for a copper colour? I posted my test model earlier in the thread and I figure since there’s some Runelord Brass details it’ll be a good timesaver.

Man my box is still pending on GW's site, thought I might get Dominion today or tomorrow but if it hasn't even shipped yet it's probably gonna be a week or more...

https://www.warhammer-community.com/2021/07/03/warhammer-preview-online-dominion-celebration/ Live blog post with pictures. Guess we're just getting those reveals. Turns out the stream hosts got their info wrong: quote:The new Orruk Warclans and Stormcast Eternals battletomes are available to pre-order in August. A third battletome will follow these in October – something a little more Chaos-flavoured, we hear. And this is just the beginning – there’s a lot in store for the new edition of Warhammer Age of Sigmar.

Winklebottom posted:And some gribblies Loving the look of these so far, especially the gator dragon thing. Crossing my fingers that the sloggoth and the Breaka-boss they showed a few weeks back both get the monster keyword. Id also love to see some heavier infantry and cavalry but they already said there was more stuff coming so im not too concerned.

PlayOnTabletop is doing a live stream at 3pm PST today the 3rd, of their first ever game of AoS so it should be quite interesting. Hopefully Nick is playing.

Talas posted:The rumors said that Nurgle is one of the first battletomes, so I'm guessing that. That wouldn’t surprise me, Nurgle’s always been a big seller, and they’ve been using the same book for a while. Still would’ve liked Skaven to be the surprise chaos pick, but I hope they’re planning a larger updates for them soon. Someday it’ll happen…

Definitely happy about Nurgle getting a new book since they're so drat fun to paint, and I'd love for them to get a bit more unit variety on the human side (or at least make a mix of Blightkings and Blightgoyles actually viable). Just not a fan of the demon sculpts at all aside from the GUO and a few of the newer characters. Unfortunately it's going to end up with them being all underpowered and crappy in like 6 months when all the other new book power creep leaves them in the dust, but ah well.

AnEdgelord posted:Yeah current 40k is not exactly inspiring confidence in GW's ability to balance books Yeah, and I mean part of it too is definitely that as much as players want balance, there is also kind of an expectation of each new book being bigger and better. At this point I've just resigned myself to it and I just hope they mix up the release order enough that every army gets to experience the feast and famine aspect of it.

Nurgle and Idoneth are probably the books most direly in need.

Gloomspite and Sylvaneth would be my priorities just because honestly those armies are borderline unplayable right now. Gitz were almost in a "not competitive, but still fun" place with the White Dwarf supplements, but right now both of those armies are honestly not even enjoyable to play. But yeah there are quite a few books that need some drastic work. It'll be interesting to see how much all of this schedule backup from the Covid / Brexit tag-team affects everything.

Not gonna lie, the new gutrippaz and monster mounts are some of the first AoS original designs that I like.

Looking closer at the big monster I realized it looks way more like a giant komodo dragon rather than a gator

How are people making AoS 3 lists right now? https://www.warhammer-community.com/warscroll-builder/ and Azyr both aren't updated yet, and I want to plan out how I get my Gloomspite army to 2k.

I don't know why I'm surprised, but it still baffles me how poorly organized these launches are. I assumed they would have all this ready to go, pre-patch the apps with the updated points and flip the switch to turn it on today. They also haven't shipped my preorder rulebook I placed 6/19. I thought preorders were supposed to be release date delivery?

You see we need to get rid of the app that works just fine so we can give you a more expensive app that does the same thing If this doesn't make sense, just know that this is a business decision and GW isn't subject to the whims of some nerd

The creator, Tony Pacheco, isn’t full time GW, it’s just a side project for him.
