Shame the ninja maneater isn't one of the models in the set.

Any spoilers or anything on the new OK stuff? Was thinking about grabbing 2 of the current start collecting box but wasn't sure if that would be a viable start any more.

S.J. posted:Any spoilers or anything on the new OK stuff? Was thinking about grabbing 2 of the current start collecting box but wasn't sure if that would be a viable start any more. The new Ogre Stuff looks like a Vangard box with the tyrant, 4 lead belchers, 6 gluttons, iron blaster and 2 mourn fangs. According to the Sunday preview: https://www.warhammer-community.com/2022/10/30/sunday-preview-the-slaves-to-darkness-prepare-to-claim-the-mortal-realms/ Oh! You meant rules, I haven't seen them, sorry.

Yeah I'm not a big fan of the new vanguard box which is why I'm asking tbh. But I could be wrong about disliking it also.
|
# ? Oct 31, 2022 18:29 |
|
TBH, I think that Vangard box is pretty well balanced for troop choices and options, it's just missing the real big hitters in Iron guts and Stonehorns.

My current plan is to buy two of the current SC boxes buy idk if that's overkill.

I'm getting big nostalgia draw for the Chaos Warriors but I'm gonna need to see the Chosen in more detail to decide whether I like them. I'm very tempted by the non-beastclaw Ogres too so lets hope this book has better internal balance. Maneaters have a lot of potential for conversions but Ogre sized kits are definitely more difficult to kitbash. I guess Brutogg from Cursed City and Blackbeard from the underworlds warband net 2 in plastic.

From WarComm we know that mournfangs are resistant to Unleash Hell and ranged weapons, Gluttons have increased MW generation, and you can get battleline Maneaters.

Yeah I saw that stuff, just didn't know if there had been any leaks in the mean time I had missed. Ogres are cool but I'm sad their basic infantry aren't getting updated kits.

Probably better off waiting for the book reviews when they show up on saturday to see if you want to pre-order it or not.

Oh for sure! I've got a couple of the old SC boxes held for myself until then

My large adult sons have entered a new phase, a phase in which they are unstoppable. Stonehorns get a second charge phase for their own personal use.

Should I just buy two of the old beastclaw SC boxes and two of the new vanguard?

S.J. posted:Should I just buy two of the old beastclaw SC boxes and two of the new vanguard? eyeballing it that's probably ~3500 points with the new costs. how much do you need?

# ? Nov 6, 2022 00:01 |

Uhhh not nearly that much. But the options would be nice I guess? Maybe just one of each and an extra stonehorn.

# ? Nov 6, 2022 00:14 |

Yeah, I remember the old Beastclaw SC was one of the main "buy two of these and you've got almost an entire legal army" purchases and I figure that and the vanguard are about the same points-wise.

Mixing the Beastclaws and Gutbusters probably won't be ideal, so unless you want the flexibility to switch between them it's probably better to pick which looks more appealing to you. If you like Beastclaws, 2 SC boxes + an extra Stonehorn can get you to 1950 points, or you could even go 3 SC boxes, sell all the Mournfang packs, and buy a Kragnos and hit 1970 for like ~$275, which is both probably the cheapest army in all of Warhammer and also a fairly scary list.

Well I don't have any idea what the actual difference between those on the table is outside of 'cavalry' and 'foot dudes', I've just been waiting for the book to come out.

Mostly? The Heroes tend to buff one or the other. Mixing them in actually works okay, tho - you definitely want a Butcher and maw pot, and Mournfangs have a role even in Gutbusters now as gunline destroyers.

https://www.warhammer-community.com/2022/11/07/treat-yourself-this-christmas-with-a-choice-of-seven-warhammer-age-of-sigmar-battleforces/ The Christmas Battleforces have been revealed. At least the AoS ones bother to include all of the factions. But feels like it's the second or third year in a row with a DoK one. Edit: On further investigation this turned out not to be the case.

I still have it on my shelf, it's almost the same box but it has two Khinerai instead of a Khinerai and Warlocks.
