I was so dissapointed by 40k 10ed I decided to grab myself some Heavy Gear. Thankfully I can still play my aos and KT.!Klams posted:Man, privateer press really poo poo the bed with warmachine. You're basically all clamouring to play it, but you're never going to play it because they just haven't managed to stand up and be noticed. Whether that's the theme, or the marketing or what, I dunno, but they've have 4 editions to work this out, and still haven't. Such a shame. How is PP still active is beyond me

!Klams posted:Yeah, exactly. Mk2 was great, but then the whole Mk3 CID slow release thing was just insane. That they've done it AGAIN for Mk4 but somehow WORSE to me is just completely infuriating. I think one issue you miss above is out of game time required. I used to play infinity and malifaux as well and bot of those games require getting punched several times before you can punch back. Bah even KT does. Thing is to play those games I need to prep what 10 models? Sure I might need more minsi later but looking at vet guardsmen I can tell I need to paint 20 dudes and we are done. Warmachine being on different scale kinda fucks people up with the way rules are updated because its more like now I need 20 knights exemplar, and now 10 flameguard+attachments. This might be true for 40k and aos but you don't have to be super hardcore in those games so the overall load is smaller.

Cease to Hope posted:Many of the factions that are soft-excluded are excluded because GW still sells them for AOS. For example, most of the Vampire Counts army is now part of the (sigh) Soulblight Gravelords, although a lot of the newer models have a bit more of a Russian vibe, and Mannfred is now a demi-god whose job is constantly disappointing Nagash. (The Necrarchs, ghouls, and ghosts are still around too, albeit in other armies.) Necrahs aren't. We have "strigoi" in flesh eater courts (along with all the ghouls) but they are separate faction from normal SBG

Squibsy posted:Yeah, the Krieg aesthetic is very strong. It's not so much that it isn't for me, perhaps baffling is the wrong word, but I find the lore and imagery of Krieg to be edging too far into po-faced grimdark, a very long way from the original pulpy movie homage vibes that many of the classic guard regiments had. It's just bleak, and that's an element of modern 40k which strays into all sorts of uncomfortable territory. Well grimdark was here since 3rd edition so hardly modern. Kriegers were added around same time as steel legion sp around 4th or 5th edition if I recall

Aniodia posted:My boss and coworkers at my FLGS have been bringing various models they've painted to work to show off on the counter, and it's all 40k stuff. I'm more of a fantasy guy, and even within that more small scale, so I had brought in one of my Warmaster high elf dragon riders. Thing is, someone dropped it at one point, and one of the wings popped off (it was only superglued on, and went back on without a hitch), so at the moment I don't have anything to display. CHart of 20 models is what you pick your kill team from - if you are playing guard you construct rooster of 20 dudes with gear and then pick 14 dudes that can join you on the mission. Instead of getting more custodes I would just buy another guard box and build every specialsit and special weapon available

They really should have made it more like KT2ed. It just does not offer same level of gameplay. So far main appeal is minis and terrain with are all great and tend to be good in aos proper

Lumpy posted:Other than rename it to "Warhammer 40,000" ? I think they've been trying to figure that out for all their games for a while now. AoS is selling good so thats not it (so are underworlds). I reckon if this didnt sell they would drop it - I reckon it mostly sells because peopel want units and sweet terrain for Aos

If we are talking purely cash and gw games WHU is the cheapest. If you know someone with core set you just buy a single band and play rivals till you die. Or grab a generic rivals deck on top of that and start playing nemesis. Or you can just grab a starter set since 2 bands have more longevity and its still less than most fancy board games. Looking at non gw games 100$ will buy me a master+ an addon box for his keyword so I reckon you can play like that for some time. Infinity starter plus another box of minis would net you something around 130. I reckon 150 is reasonable for solid starter force Covermeinsunshine fucked around with this message at 12:54 on Oct 13, 2023 |

I for one was never in a market - played 5th and 6th edition of wfb and jumped ship as soon as friend introduced me to Warmachine. Might be I'm just alergic to rank and file because KoW and Conquest turned me of hard (wanted to like conuest but turned out it has like one good rule in the rule set). Only reason I wait for wfb is that foot knights will make good grave guards for my vamps.

LashLightning posted:You certainly got hosed-over regarding the books, but I wouldn't think so for most of the models. I could be getting confused with AoS "2nd Edition", but Nagash and other undead models got supported by the new ghost army, and the others eventually by the ghoul army. Chaos and VC ranges survived the transition mostly unscathed. Elfs and Empire were a mixed bag as resin and metal got dropped over time but until recent Cities of SIgmar book most newer plastics were usable - so quite a bit of time after end times).
