Age of Sigmar General

Vanguard 1000p

Order Serpentis
Dreadlord on Black Dragon
2x 5 Drakenspawn Knights
1x Drakenspawn Chariot
1x Hydra

Is this a viable army?

Looks like Sylvaneth have some shooty units now

Yes.

I'll just stop being a twat and post the pics already.

Amazing. The wings are going to break into pieces after the first transportation though.

So the new book makes 1+ saves impossible?

Darn. Oh well, means I don't need to have a mage to get it and can cast the shield on something else.

...

...

>So the new book makes 1+ saves impossible?
They are still possible but they are no longer automatic pass because a roll of 1 is always a failure.

Getting a 1+ save is still helpful when dealing with Rend

...

I don't want to look at the points. My guess is the Seraphon points won't make Skink armies any more viable... Oh well.

...

I never thought it was an automatic pass purely because of Rend. Still, 1+ save against -2 renders will be useful.

My guess is they're stupidly priced? I really don't want to check ;_;. Blissful ignorance until I get the book myself.

Last model photo, warscrolls (en francais) next.

It's come full circle

Can someone post the Moonclan pages/points for me? I'm on my phone and I can't see them properly :(

>they have some female torsos and male torsos

I really hope this is a trend they continue. Imperial Guard need female torsos. I don't mean boob plate, but like the RPG cover with a slightly protruding chest, or a pony tail or something.

didn't they do it with the new Dark Elf kits in 8th?

ty user

Penultimate.

Huh. These are actually pretty cool.

Indubitably

And the last one.

Well, stag beetles were a think I long expected them to make. Anub'arak is based on a Scarab. But yes, AoS is very similar to WoW.

Funny thing is, you get shit like this in a recent comic (I think GW did legal shit or are in current process of). Which is funny, as Malekith is literally named after a Marvel Dark Elf villain with a burnt face and a mask.

>Imperial Guard need female torsos.

get your waifu shit outta here

AoS might have been complete shit till the points and AoS fluff is a lot to be desired (not surprised due to small timeframe and the fact Sigmarines are so fucking boring) the models have been fantastic. The Orruc ones or however they're spelled were fantastic.

Those fucking antlers holy shit
>5 attacks on 4/3 with Rend2 and FIVE damage

Fuck off. Cadia is 50% fucking female soldiers. Got nothing to do with waifus, I just want female solders which are regular mentioned in the fluff. What the fuck is wrong with that? I want just a couple on a sprue, while you want to continue your sausage party.

>5 wound shooting unit
>with amazing melee attacks

God damn

I would assume you can either have the bow and grubs, or the sword, or the scythe,

Could someone shop the Maw-crusha in relative size next to it? I'm really curious, but I'm at uni right now, so i can't do it.

Wait. So what's coming out this week?

The points rulebook and the Sylvaneth stuff?

Is there a new Battletome for them?

And the damage stays pretty high as it takes wounds. 10 wounds down and the thing's still hitting at damage 3.

My guys is a herd of beastmen called the Bloodhorn Herd who are lead by the beastlord Kragarr Twinblade. They are inhabiting an area in the realm of beasts called the Ash Woodlands, a forest that has been scorched by magic fire.
Currently they are assembling their forces to invade the realm of life, as they are guided through the realmgates by their bray shaman Gorax Spirithorn

Do they have mobile quivers on little beetles? That's adorable!

Wow, I guess I know why the Tree Kin are legacy, these guys are soo much better.
>30'' range on the bows
sweet sweet shit

waifus out!

and she heals d6 wounds per turn

>Thankfully I have my honeycomb powerloader!
In all seriousness, this whole batch is amazing.

>chick with mood swings in a tree mech that is covered in bee hives
This is the GREATEST THING EVER

>that beetle antler attack
>that spear
>healing d6 per turn
>flying
>wizard that can cast 3 spells
>3+ save, can cast mystic shield on herself to make it a 2+

I dont speak french but so far this looks like it could be the strongest model in the game

So what are the prices? I want to paint some of these guys.

so what is out, pls respond ;_;

Checked.

Wait, am I getting this right, is alarielle really shitting out a unit of tree things each turn?
I'd really appreciate a translation here, my french is fucking awful.
The rest seems already outrageoulsy powerful from what I can make out.

That is a really nice looking model. It fits the Dryad aesthetic perfectly, but holy shit £14?
A box of Dryads is only £25

This guy better be fucking expensive, or I'm going to get fucking angry. The guy has the most OP stats in the fucking game. If he isn't 500+ points, they've fucked everything.

Hello guys, I'm sooo very new to this. Basically I bought Warhammer Quest : Silver Tower because I love me some dungeon crawling and decided to buy the Age of Sigmar starter because the games can expand each other and I've always half wanted to try it (also I had a voucher).

Thing is, I kind of wanted to make a Slaanesh Army because the idea always seemed funny to me. And now I hear Slaanesh is no longer in ? I know pretty much nothing of the lore (Only played Chaos in the Old World and a couple games of 40k), but can you still play Slaanesh ? Can you play mixed army groups ? Like Slaanesh/Tzeench or Nurgle ?

Nobody owns this model

Basically a chaos dread that can cast Psychic Scream. I can dig it.

Slaaneshi still exists. His armies still exist. He will be a plot point at a later date. He was captured by two 'good' gods and was a reason why Chaos ended up raping everybody and making Sigmar run away and cry.

Yes you can mix them up.

That's cheaper than most other heroes these days. A lot of the seraphon stuff is $30 for small single models.

>they have some female torsos
That looks more like manboobs.

She's meant to be a demigod like Nagash or Archaon*, seems appropriate to me that she's right at the upper echelon of power in the game.

*Yes, I am aware Archaon hasn't accepted daemonhood let alone godhood, it's a figure of speech.

I'm fine with her being the Nagash/Archaon/Gordakk of Order but in Pitched Battles I think she is the strongest of those 4

They do for these rules.

Look at this shit.

10 Wounds.
10 Bravery
12" Move at Max Health
3+/3+ -2 Rend 2 Damage, 8 Attacks. Potential 16 Damage.
IGNORES REND. GHAL MARAZ. DREAD SAURIANS. IT IGNORES THEIR -3. It also IGNORES MORTAL WOUNDS ON A 4+.
AUTO ATTACKS AGAIN ON EVERY 6+. KEEPS GOING.
HEALS D3 WOUNDS EVERY SLAIN MODELS.
-2 to hit within 6" if you're 6 Bravery or Less. -1 to hit within 6" if you're 7 or more.

2+ models hit on a 3+/4+. It always makes a 3+ save (2+ with a wizard protecting him). Ignores Mortal Wounds on a 4+. Heals. Massive movement range.

poetry

>Alarielle: 620 points
>Archaon: 700 points
>Gordrakk: 700 points
>Nagash: 900 points
GW think she's the weakest. Rhubarb, rhubarb.

>Hi-Def feet pics

Thank you thank you thank you

Sylvaneth will be out next saturday, with preorders going life this one. General's Handbook I'm not sure, probably right after that.
Also, holy fuck, quints again, I already got 77777 in the AoS thread yesterday. What the shit is going on?

What point is Kroak at?

540.

540

Thanks. Shame. Gotta wait a long time for this shit.

Night goblin/Moonclan list

1k points, i guess. Rough mockup after seeing points costs, literally no idea what meta and stuff is like

He is overcosted

Shame he sucks. Bit too much for me. I mean he's neat, but he isn't great. Not when Star Drakes can do the same shit he can do but it's a HERO PHASE ability, not a magic ability, so can't be dispelled.

Ah fuck it. Lizardmen are fucked. I had hoped the prices would have been reasonable since nothing seemed to fit any logic and some of their units are down right useless.

Such is life.

Thanks.

Very much so. I would have done 400 at most. Simply because any decent wizard will fuck him over via dispelling and some units have abilities that are better than his.

I see no reason in taking Kroak other than for fluff reasons. Bit like WHFB then, huh...

...

My french is basically limited to some french porn and the names of various bits of food, but even with that I am fairly sure Alarielle is astoundingly powerful.
>50% chance to summon a random unit each turn
>heals
>highly mobile
>mortal wounds and instant death all over
>good shooting
>very good melee
>Wyldwood shenanigans
>three spells per turn for a comfy 2+ save
I can't even make sense of her Comamnd Ability, but I'm sue it's good, too.

Is your body ready to paint them?

I will never not be amazed by lizard players being able to spell doom for their army at the drop of a hat.

Yeah jezus, Seraphon/Lizardmen players have been flooding these threads with unhelpful whining and circlejerk.

I'm pretty new to AoS and I just flicked over every other faction. To me, quickly, the Skinks (bar Chameleons and Heroes) Razordons, Saurus Warriors and Saurus Knights were pretty poor. Stegadon Dart Throwers are too situational (better against Skaven than Ogres).

Though Bastildons, Ripperdactyls, Saurus Guard and specific formations are neat. I'm just upset me 200 odd Skinks are kinda useless no matter how I build them.

> RELEASE THE BEES

I used to play Tzeentch warriors (Arcanites in AoS from what I've found), but GW lists only 2 lords for them on their site.
Should I only play Daemons for now, or can you pick warriors dedicated to a god ?

Yeah with Summoning neutered there's very little reason to bring Kroak. It's a shame because his model is excellent.

Celestial Deliverance is difficult to get value from because it puts him in a position that enemy flyers or fast cavalry or deep strikers can assassinate him. You basically have to surround him with Guard and an Eternity Warden or risk losing him at any time.

Comet's Call is great on paper but in actual games it barely tickles enemy units and heroes... assuming you actually manage to cast it because a 7+ is only a 58.33% chance (with no modifiers).
The only great use of Comet's Call is killing enemy warmachine crew across the map.

His Command Ability is underwhelming at best.

Bring a Skink Starseer + Slann Starmaster instead and save yourself 120 points

There's a ton of indirect nerfs for Seraphon in this book so it's justified complaining.

It's definitely better for the game overall, though. For example, I won't need infinite Ripperdactyl attacks if my enemies aren't able to bring Nagash + 3 mortarchs or 3 Phoenixes to every game.

>mfw I pretended to be a lizard player just so I could make people hate them

I'm DEVILISH.

...

Yup. My guess the book also fixes Standard Bearer buffs stacking when the icon is planted? So no more +7 Attacks (+1 from formation for +8A) for Gorechosen?

Razordons are good at killing infantry. This wasn't useful before now because people generally just brought monsters, but now that Battleline units are a thing the Razordon 2D6 Rend-1 hits are going to be fantastic.

Knights were underwhelming in most Wound based systems but with the right buffs (and there are a LOT of buffs you can give them) they can do a lot. I think with points involved they will see more play, especially when paired with a Troglodon nearby for devastating Battleshock phases.

Wouldn't a Salamander be out right better though? Since it does damage and has a chance to do another D3 wounds after?

It's not as good as the Dorf Flame Cannon, but then again, very few items are.

>thunderquake starhost only costs 120pt

Thank god nobody realized how broken this shit was

Yeah looks pretty good man. You don't fucking own 20 Censers do you? god damn. converted or all official?

God damn these things look fucking stupid. Very awkward posing there, looks like they are about to fall over.

>tree people with greatswords

not feeling this release much.

Can great moonclan goblins shoot their bows twice on a to hit roll of 6? It doesnt specify "in the combat phase" like the rule on the right hand side does, so im inclined to say yes?

Any clarification here? Doesnt seem particularly gamebreaking in any case

I like the reversed legs, gives them a more predatory vibe.

Chaos Lords can be Tzeentch. Daemon Princes too. Gaunt Summoners are the unique one you have.

Apart from that, nothing else has changed, really.

You're likely to get an update at some point to include the Silver Tower Tzeentch models. Such as these.

There is also this.

What do you guys think of this little idea?
I'm thinking about building a tiny army. Calling them The Lost Sons of Middenheim.
Five Liberators. Five Judicators. One Castellent (I just think it's a cooler model than the Cellestant).
The rest, I'd do Freeguild. General. Freeguild Guard. Freeguild Greatswords. Knightly Orders (I dunno where to find those or what would be a good proxy). I'd mainly paint them, Stormcasts too, in the old blue and white scheme some fur stuff added.

And this.

So, you have plenty of alternate models, if you want to keep to Tzeentch.
