Lucinice posted:Alright I've decided my first AoS army is going to be Tzeentch. I want to run some Chaos Warriors in it too but I wonder how that's going to work out will all the upcoming changes. I doubt there would be a problem. Chaos Warriors have an ability that lets you declare them for a party up at God. Use that ability to declare them for Tzeentch and you can take them as battleline.

SkyeAuroline posted:I've been told AoS (or its attached RPGs) gives some actual depictions of the Chaos gods' positive aspects, in contrast to 40k. I don't play, so I don't know, but is that true and if so where do I go find it? This was a thing in the early days of WHFB and it's kind of stuck for a few writers/fans since how things were when you started tends to crystallize a bit. The idea was that since all magic stems from Chaos and gods are magic the various gods worshipped by man and elf were just different aspects of the big four. Khaine was an aspect of Khorne, The Lady in the Lake/Elven God of Magic was Tzeentch, Elven gods of healing and nature were Nurgle. The end times book for elves gave it a little lip service but also said it wasn't all true since many Elven gods were ascendant heroes from the last cycle.

There used to be orks down with Khorne, the other orks just kind of rolled their eyes and put it down as youthful rebellion.

They re probably just listing the armies that didn't get a 2nd ed tome, which isn't a bad way to predict who'll get one in the next 18 months.

Talas posted:The next White Dwarf has some updated rules for Seraphon, just like Sons of Behemat and Slaves to Darkness in the recent issues. And well, that's something that a lot of people are taking as a sign that their next battletomes are going to take a while to arrive: Only make sense since they were among the latest battle tomes. They probably want to focus on the armies that didn't get a 2nd Ed battle tome and a few other old tomes that need a refresh.

Winklebottom posted:“Looks like WoW” has become the go-to insult for fantasy-aesthetic-I-don’t-like in a lot of places. I’m guessing it’s because of the fantasy China thing, which was also the theme for a WoW expansion. Looks like Warcraft is also the go to troll for GW stuff since the internet knows how much it riles people up.

MonsterEnvy posted:Morathi also just lied out of her teeth and called it Khaine’s blood to make it acceptable for her followers to use. Khorne cares very much about stolen blood. There was a bit in the old vampire army book about Vampires being the anathema to all the chaos gods. Khorne hates them because they drink the blood that is rightfully his, Tzeentch hates them because they are eternally unchanging, Nurgle hates them because they're immune to diseases and Slaanesh hates them because of the ennui.

I would've liked Ossiarch's to get a book sooner rather than later, but that's just because between them and GSC I have a tendency to choose armies whose key abilities get broken everything there's a new edition.

Well more witch elves and khinerai are always good but the Warlocks are such a niche unit you would probably never run the additional 5. Maybe the Warcry box would serve better? It's 10 witches and 5 melusai. The Melusai arches are the best non character unit in the army. I would go on ebay and see if you could get the Medusa by itself. It's a great caster and probably your best if you're not running Morathi.

Cooked Auto posted:https://www.warhammer-community.com/2022/11/07/treat-yourself-this-christmas-with-a-choice-of-seven-warhammer-age-of-sigmar-battleforces/ It feels that way because of how many times they've had codex releases but we haven't had a DoK Christmas box since 2018. I still have it on my shelf, it's almost the same box but it has two Khinerai instead of a Khinerai and Warlocks.

Grizzled Patriarch posted:Do those boxes usually end up on third party sites with the normal discount over MSRP? If so I might end up grabbing the Gloomspite one, planned on getting a couple Manglers anyway so I'd basically be getting some free squigs out of it. They do, I bought the laat DoK box I mentioned from a British store. With the extra GW bakes into foreign prices and the strong dollar to pound I paid $130 after shipping.

Count Thrashula posted:Is there a way other than eBay to get singles of big-unit models? This used Nighthaunt army I bought has 1-2 models missing from most of the units, so it's not worth buying a whole box to fill it out, because then I'm still in the same predicament. Not really, your army isn't really 'missing' models, GW changed the unit sizes between building the sprues and sending the rules to the print shop so everyone had that issue. The glaivestalkers at least have a cheap 5 model box.

War and Pieces posted:A vampire count would probably run a better county than a Britonian, if only to make sure his peasents are healthy enough to feed off of. Depending on the time frame, in the Old World Sylanian people were generally a content lot, but that might've been more of the general stoicism of the real world source. They did have little acts of rebellion. Like burying their dead upside down so they would dig in the wrong direction if they were ever raised by a necromancer.

Bring zombies back to their terrifying level from 5th. I played a slow growth league back with nothing but zombies, a Wight to lead them and a necromancer to summon more. Anytime the army expanded just piled in more zombies. Never won a round of combat but eventually broke and ate any unit they tried to tar pit it with.

If it actually becomes an issue it'll probably go down like it did for 40k where you could pay $15 on Thingiverse and get 40-50 little squares that increase the base by the 5mm.

You can, but they're not worth the cost in $ or points. Especially if you're just starting the faction. Edit: the court that is, the normal units that come with it are good, especially if you can get for ~$100 If you haven't picked the vanguard yet check tos ee if your local store still has. Revenant Legion lying around. More expensive, around $200, but it's a better discount on what you'll get.
