This was rambling as gently caress , so are there any questions?

Thank you for your sacrifice of time. This was actually a nice read/analysis from a different perspective.

I just signed up for an AoS escalation league. Weep not for me, I seek knowledge to share with others.

My body is a roadmap of pain, and pain has it's valves.

You're a good person, TKIY. The game sounds like it's almost in the place they were originally shooting for as a ~beer n' pretzels~ chill game but honestly after three beers and having my big death cannon rendered useless turn one via poo poo I couldn't actively counter I'd probably smash a bottle over somebodies head.

I plunge further into the Mortal Realms.



Everything will be square based for Kings of War but I did give GW money. I expect skeletal admonishment at any time.

The only truly unforgivable sin here is those drat dice. Otherwise I honestly really like the hunter models.

I really want a Man-Eater wearing dumb steampunk dorf armor now. Bonus points if it has an ogre sized beardgun mask.

Destiny Dice are the biggest bullshit ever.

Basically this. At higher points I guess they aren't as awful but still kinda bullshit for knee-capping certain units with zero risk.

My girlfriend recently decided she wants to play AoS and got some boxes of dudes. So I'm going to use this as an excuse to grab the dopey balloon dorfs. Anyone have experience with them? Ideally against Nighthaunts or Death in general.

It's really amazing how much better Sigmarines look in almost any colors other than gold 90% of the time.

Maybe it's a thing they're doing for all the classic Warham vortex spells. Would be sweet to see a Burning Skull, Pit of Shades, Golden Hounds etc.

I don't know what AoS books are garbage and which aren't but for those who may care, [urlhttps://www.humblebundle.com/books/tales-from-the-worlds-of-warhammer-books]Humble Bundle has a bunch of them in their newest book bundle[/url]. Thought you nerds may appreciate it :v:

Seems like Sigmar is becoming more popular by the day. I bought some fishies and also want nighthaunts. I had a look for some Sigmar friendly games online and there are two new regular meetings in Melbourne with a stack of new players. Good stuff imo.

I've given it a shot or two in the past with the ogres I bought for WHFB 8th but they're basically the definition of "Not very good" outside of their mounted units. My partner already has a fair deal of nighthaunts so I figured I'd build up something for when the 2E and more nighthaunts drop. Also getting rid of my 40k stuff that I'll never use(Everything but Dork Elves and Bananas) so I have a fair bit of credit at the local store. I love these dumb as gently caress steampunk lookin' dorfs and their fluff is pretty fun.

Speaking of, does anyone have that order city generation table that was floating around? Wanna have a proper fluff write-up for whatever these guys end up bein' because I'm a giant nerd and also gay.

e; and the starter box is missing the flight stands for the balloon bois. Dammit GW.

Make a "legacy" section of the store for factions they want to keep in but don't have full armies for or something, draft up a rule that lets them socket into whatever other army for their allegiance.

So, I'm up to 30 Arkanauts, five Thunderers, three Endrinriggers, a Gun Hauler, Admiral, and Endrinmaster. Is it worth grabbing another start collecting kharadon box to fluff up the gunline a bit and get another boat, or would I better served going straight for a bigger boat and a navigator? Just in a general sense. The starter box is a great value and more thunderers seems extremely good, along with another hauler and endrinmaster to keep the haulers patched up. The skywardens/riggers seem kinda "eh" though?
