Alright, I'll post the map and some genral info about the area and by beastmen herd
>The Ash Woodlands The Ash woodlands is a region inside the real of beasts where magical fire set a vast forest region ablaze. It was said that it happend many eons ago when a battle between daemons of Tzeench and Stormcast Eternats fought tooth and nail. Now even if it has been many years since the battle the forest is still dead and refuses to grow.
>The Bloodhorn Herd The Bloodhorn herd is a fairly large breyherd that is ruled by the beastlord "Kraagarr Twinblade" and the bray Shaman "Gorax Spirithorn" together they have taken residence in a ruined and forgotten keep deep inside the Ash Woodlands. They both rule over many Gors, Bestigors and Ungors. But they have also a chaos Gargant working for them and a Cygor that Gorax has under his spell. Together they wreck havoc and mayhem to the surrounding Freeguild holdings.

Feel free to ask questions about the stuff on the map and I can tell you about them, ask about my herd as well if you have any questions.

Some people just hate change. Any change. I've seen WFB diehards argue that making the rules freely available is a bad thing and that having to buy rulebooks + supplements + armybooks was better. You just can't win with those people.
Thats not to say all criticism of AoS is invalid. The intial launch of AoS & the whole End Times left much to be desired on many fronts, and there is a dramatic shift both in tone and in rules from the WFB of old which understandably isn't for everyone.

I don't know that people blame AoS fans (some probably do), but there's a lot of shit that (justifable) fling at GW for the way they handled things.
And its interesting but I notice some AoSers can't empathize at all with the feelings of WHFB fans. Just say oh they are trolls, shitters, etc. They don't stop and think some of these people have had fantasy as part of their entire lives and they just say, 'oh get over it'. I think a lot of AoSers would react the same way if the game went under and its barely over a year old.
Leo Hughes
I get that, I do hate that the sudden change feels like a middle finger to a lot of the effort time and money spent on their armies, particularly those that got the axe, I still miss Tomb Kings, at least the Brets got to keep their rule set
Jaxson Anderson
you might be right, its hard to think of it from that perspective because at least from what I've seen Fantasy fans have been hostile as a default state making it feel impossible to discuss with them or even in their presence

I get the embitterment with the death of the old world, because it was genuinely cool, and will be missed. This is from a guy who actually likes the new fluff and setting. But others don't like the tonal shift, and have some hope in the back of their heads that if they can possibly destroy this game, by making it toxic for new players and lead to the death of AoS, then GW would bring back the old world and do 9th edition.
Also you have idiots who genuinely believe that you are the cancer of miniature wargaming if you like what they perceive as utter garbage.
So I get some of the anger and feeling of betrayal, but I do not get the sheer animosity and bitterness.

The thing I like the most about AoS is that you aren't tied down to anything when making your army/dudes. If I want a group of Orks working together with a rabble of skeletons then sure, nothing is really stopping me. I know there are some limitations but there are fewer thain in WHFB

My strormcast eternals are a strike force of veterans chosen by sigmar for their acts at the start of the realmgate wars. Each has served in the most fearsome battles within the Brimstone Peninsula and have struck down Khorne's barbarians at every turn. Yet to be reforged these hardened warriors bear the marks of ceaseless war in a realm of fire; their once gleaming armor has faded to a dull bronze, rivers of blood having obscured it's shine. Soot has claimed their heraldry and manye of the sacred scripts they carry have been burned away. They wear this battered armor as the colors of their stormhost, no matter what shade of gold or blue they bore before, now they are the hands of Sigmar, united in bloodshed for all eternity.
I have them this backstory because in the games I've played, my units have an uncanny ability to survive against all odds. One on one I've lost units of liberators to unbuffed reavers, or lord celestant on dracoth to a khorgorath. But when the line between valiant victory and crushing defeat begins to blur each eternal fights with an incredible fervor. I plan on exalting a unit of liberators as Sigmar's honor guard for their performance in the last battle. 5 liberators held off wrathmongers, blood warriors a khorgorath and khorgus khuul (?) For three turns until reinforcements arrived.

Being a bit of a devil's advocate here, it kind of reminds me of the backlash when Disney said all the old starwars novels weren't canon anymore. Its like, yeah its kind of shitty if you invested years into reading these books, but its not like they told you that you can't read those books anymore. If you want Dash Rendar to still exist in your mind, then still does. If you want Storm of Chaos to have happened, then it happened. You can still play WFB, no one is stopping you.
