Love 40k's fluff. Tons of resources available to read and videos that explain the lore. Nothing of the sort for AoS. Before the obligatory "read fantasy", I have but I want to get into AoS because I'm a faggot

it's kind of like fantasy but nothing even matters at all, numbers are just arbitrary numbers to sound epic, and anything that happens or ever happened in AoS is essentially irrelevant even to it's own continuity.
Oh and almost forgot to spoil the end: Archaon wins, because what else could happen when he's the 5th Foreverchosen?
I've only read two Sigmar books, but I found them to be decent reads.
The first was Warbeast, which gives an interesting look into how Stormcast deal with their past lives and how it can differ significantly between individual.
The other was Skaven Pestilens. I really enjoyed it, but that's because Seraphon play a big role and.i love Seraphon. But the action is decent and it does give a glimpse into the normal mortal lives of people in Sigmar with the whole Worm City.
The lexicanum has very little on the Age of Sigma stuff, which is sad.
Well you have to keep in mind that while 40k have 30 years AoS just started a couple years ago. Give it some time he may impress us all, and remember, its here to stay whether you like it or not.
You can read battletomes in the AoS general resources link.
Basically:
>Flesheaters think they are glorious bretonnian knights, when in reality are ghouls and undead
>Bone splittas are orcs who like to kill big monsters to appease gorkamorka and get powa
>Beastclaw raiders are followed by a constant blizzard and have to run around killing and eating things to survive
>Stormcast are gay
>Chaos is same chaos in 40k
>Skaven are bumbling idiots but are fun and funny, and in mass numbers can kill anything
>Warherds are big beastmen who will fight for whoever provides them with battle and the corpses to eat afterwards
>Seraphon are good guy daemons who are summoned into existence by big frogs
>Fyreslayers are dwarf mercenaries

I don't play them, but I still don't agree. I like the idea that they're basically Sigmar's undead and this gets Nagash's panties in a twist so each time they "die" he grabs a small bit of their souls. You then get this interesting situation where the more times a Stormcast dies the more they become celestial automatons. It's a really neat twist, in my opinion.
>Gorkamorka
Were they always one god in fantasy vs two gods in 40k?
