/aosg/ Age of Sigmar General

shiet, I mean plaguebearers

Stormcast wizard for a Celestial Hurricanum conversion.
I'd need some advice: What should I do about his left hand? Leave it empty? Sword? Fireball? I'm really uncertain.

a book, he need a book

It's irrelevant if they're great kits or not, they are regular kits thrown in a box, while the starter box is deliberatly designed as such, large chnky bits of monopose models that require minimal assembly.

def book mate

It's basically another Death Masque
I don't know why this surprises you
>desu
what a gay

Ok with Nurgle, since Rotbringers can ally with Slaves of Darkness but Daemons can if I run a Nurgle army can I ally with Slaves of Darkness, and hence my Hellcannon, or not

How do Seraphon deal with Aetherstrike? Kroak?

What is the decrypt key for the Generals Handbook 2017 Mega

>I don't know why this surprises you
Could you show me where I am suprised? I just pointed out that starter set kits are not snapfit
>>desu
>what a gay
Newfag or cheetahfag spotted desu baka senpai

Try again?

>>desu

>Being this new, baka desu senpai

Does anyone have any maps of Ghur, the Realm of Beasts?

They are commonly referred to as snapfits as a shorthand for models that require a less than average amount of time to put together since they're build from a few large pieces rather than a lot of small ones.

In Generals Handbook 2017 Rotbringers have Slaves of Darkness as an Ally, Nurgle Daemons do not, I am asking if I run a combined Nurgle force of which the rules will come out soon can I run a Hellcannon, which is a part of Slaves of Darkness as part of my Ally while still being able to remain Nurgle or must I buy Plauge Flingers as my Artillery instead

No, "snapfit" of "pushfit" refers to models that can be assembled without glue, which the AoS starter sets cannot.

They're still monoposed kits though with no choice in weapons or even heads
This kit is literally Nurgle Start Collection swapping out the herald for a farmer + what would be a Stormcast Vanguard start collecting if they made one for an all combined lower cost than two start collectings
Don't know why everyone is calling it a starter kit

Do Hellcannons have the Nurgle keyword? If no, you're out of luck.

>They are commonly referred to as snapfits
At least pretend to not be a newfag. These are easy-to-build. Snap-fit/push-fit are pic related

Yes, we both know this, but it is still commonly used as such in these threads, like it or not.

>Don't know why everyone is calling it a starter kit
Because it is a two-player set with rules, book and stuff?
>I s-said it is commonly used here as I'm using it, so it must be true! B-baka~~

So even though Rotbringers can ally am I still out of luck?
It doesn't even come with dice

>It doesn't even come with dice

That's a good point actually, seems like a weird thing to leave out.

How do mangler squigs perform in battle, ive been thinking of starting a goblin army for a while now an I would build it to be mainly squig focused

okay, so an updated warscroll builder won't happen soon I guess.
battlescribe maybe?
or what?

They were good in GH1, don't know if they got a point increase
Also a handy hint I've seen from a moonclan player, for your squigs, in particular squig riders it might be more prudent looking at a armless Tzeentch Pink Horrors with a Grot green stuffed on the back
Sounds weird but it works

Pen and paper

Look at every start collecting box
Notice how it's also missing dice

Use the warscroll builder but then change the points values by yourself. It's still easier than fuckin with pen and paper

maybe, but I guess the same as fast as notepad&keyboard

so stick to that and I hope for battlescribe soon

Sounds like a good idea thanks mate

>1000 pt match
>opponent brings 2 bloodthirsters and skarbrand

How do I deal with this faggotry? I'd like to bring 2 bastilodons and just laser them down, but it's risky if they get caught in melee.

I am so happy with Hammerers being Battleline now, but it is still annoying since both Warriors and Longbeards are worth taking in a list, so I can't find an excuse to use them at a 1000 point level.

I suppose it wouldn't hurt to use Hammerers instead of Warriors on occasion, but a few of the new scenarios in the GH2017 need units of at least 20 to capture objectives.

Chaff them into oblivion.

Threadly reminder that Hashut and Chaos Duardin are best

Daily reminder that while real Dwarfs work with Gromil, Hashut are stuck in the Bronze age.

You could use a unit of each, or as you said, Longbeards and Hammerers

And about the 20 unit size, 20 isn't really that much, imo

>I don't understand that more than 1 person doesn't like stormcast
ok.

>flying cities that crumble if they run out of aether gold
>meanwhile trains always work
>Chaos Dwarfs always had guns and artillery while dwarfs had only ballista

Chaos Dwarfs are probably on par with Kharadron if anything. Most likely at the same tech level

>WHFB: dead
>AoS: alive and well

>got a nosebleed building Bloodcrushers

I AM CHOSEN

Goddammit though I'm so used to just gluing everything together then suffering awkward paint angles, but I know I really should keep Juggernaut and Bloodletter separate for painting...

.... stormcasts don't have wizards in the fluff. They only have prayers and don't use magic.
That's why they made wizard allies.

It is for Dispossessed. They are already slow moving, so in smaller games, doubling up on units means you will be putting a lot of points into something that isn't going anywhere fast.

For Warriors it isn't so bad, since they are cheap enough to not be a problem., but you double up something like Longbeards or Ironbreakers you will be spending a ton for something that may not be able to get much use for quite some time.

On the upside, in larger games you can have 30 Ironbrakers for 400 points, which you can happily sit on objective and they wont budge off it all game, which is pretty funny.

>Also start set has no snapfit kits
What? I literally have a starter set sitting next to me and it's all snapfit.

Start Collecting boxes don't come with 2 opposing factions smartass

>55102614
>literally doing the exact opposite of what you are told

It's deliberate bait.

That, or the poster is downright retarded. I'm willing to bet its the former, rather than the latter.

Oh ok I see

Then I understand why is nice having them as battleline but also a bit of a "problem"

>people not being retarded
>on a Taiwanese basket weaving board
Where do you think we are
[Spoiler]Hes probably both desu[/spoiler]

>call someone retarded
>fucked up the spoilers
Life is pain

Mix the blood into the glue. It is Khorne's will.

This problem could be alleviated if they stopped fucking around and released Elves

They have plenty of magic things, a guy controlling a celestial hurricanum is pretty reasonable.

>alive and well

*DOUBT*

Let's try one more time seriously guys, I know there are a lot of seraphon players here - don't be unhelpful cunts please

Should I left this list as it is or change it? I have three options

1) drop the Saurus Scar-Veteran and use the Saurus Oldblood (120) and a unit of 20 skinks (120) instead

2) asseble the Scar-Veteran on Carnosaur as Troglodon (180) but I will end up with 60 unused points and I have now idea how to use these spare points.

3) instead of buying the second SC box I can but the Saurus Eternity Warden (140) and Saurus Guard box (300 for 3 units) and use them with Eternal Starhost Battalion (130) - 570pts in total. The question is - is Eternal Starhost based on 5-model units worth it?

My current list
Heroes
Saurus Oldblood on Carnosaur (280)
- General
Saurus Scar-Veteran on Carnosaur (240)
- War Spear
Skink Starpriest (80)

Battleline
20 x Saurus Warriors (200)
- Spears
5 x Saurus Knights (100)
- Lances
- Seraphon Battleline
5 x Saurus Knights (100)
- Lances
- Seraphon Battleline

Total: 1000/1000

Freeguild when?

Can you assemble them with no glue? If yes, they are snapfit. If no, they are easy-to-build

Too bad the shit eating editors let battleline as dispossessed being hammerers go through. Ironbreakers still have no battleline option, hammerers, an elite guard of generals - a rare elite troop type, becomes battleline instead. And other compendium shit just got all their battleline if allegiance shit removed.

Who cares? I'm using an old Nurglitch model to proxy epidemus in my pestilens army

Honestly depends on what objective you are playing and what army.
1 is a good idea. Extra skinks will be great for objective based games.

anti-stormcast shitposting is the worst meme since that blood elf faggot insisted kurnoth swords are better than swords

its worse than skavenposting

its worse than that one faggot who keeps posting a picture of settra

its worse than elf fags

>Rats riding rats
>Dinos riding dinos BTFO

The settra-dude is not this bad tho. He is posting just a single picture in every thread and sometimes he is doing it to bump the thread

Samecast Sameposter is the worst since that blood elf faggot insisted kurnoth swords are better than swords

its worse than skavenposting

its worse than that one faggot who keeps posting a picture of settra

its worse than elf fags

I think cheetafag only really sticks to /40kg/ now. Haven't seen him here in a while.

The thing is, his sameposting is obvious bait.

I think the Settra and elf posters genuinely believe their shit factions are relevant to the setting and getting updates.

I'm not sure which is worse.

The silver tower style elves will probably get a release
I don't see why they would put them in there if they weren't going to make full armies.
I think the old style (high, dark, etc) are dead though.

So has Spire of Dawn finally been discontinued?

> fucks up spoiler
Lurk moar senpai. You suck

>TK
>shit faction

I can understand not liking the posts, but calling Tomb Kings a shit faction is uncalled for. They are pretty neat

I think so. They made hordes gud again so why give away 40 clanrats for cheap?

Clanrats are awful! Verminus is shit!

Nope, he was posting on both threads. He was banned several times for avatarfagging so he stopped using his cheetah pics - now he is just shitposting here because mods don't give a single fuck about /aosg/ reports apparently

>i didnt read the chain: the post

Still has the ADD TO CART option available to me:

games-workshop.com/en-US/Age-of-Sigmar-Spire-of-Dawn-ENG

Go home user. You'll get a skaven battletome soon enough.

How did they make hoards good again? Weren't they always decent?

Why using clanrats or verminus at all if they have no bonuses now? They don't have a battalion and their main buff engine - LoW and CoC - is nerfed as fuck. The only gut horde option for rats are Pestilens right now

I settra posted mostly because seeing people sperg out over a picture and a single word was funny as fuck, now i mostly lurk around and ask legit questions about tk in game

>now impossible to get plastic engis, weapon teams, or the good rat ogre models
I swear to fuck skaven had better get a battletome+release

>the age of sigmar community must circle the wagons around stormcast! defend them with your life!

not even 40k general is this cucked

Is there a problem with pestilens?

Is there no non-gw online store in your countries or what?

Pretend you are against SCE as skaven
>roll the objective game where you can burn down objectives for D3 points.

>Destroy it for D3 points, then flee from combat, don't even bother killing 1 lib
>Camp your 3 objectives while he now has 2

>55103129
>trying this hard

I will bet you anything that skaven will get a release and battletome making verminus good

No, they are fine. They are the essence of skaven horde right now. You can run 90 monks in 1000pts list and that's a really decent option

They could always do that ya big goof

I do the same desu. Then just throw a liber furnace with rot and ruin in, and 2 priests. Looking forward to 2k tho. Nurglitch is arriving in the mail soon.

Holy crap this autism.

Yeah, and what?
Now they are shit and after battletome release you will just run a mono-verminus army for allegiance abilities like people running mono-skryre and mono-pestilens right now.
I'm not complaining because verminus is shit right now. I'm complaining because it's the end of mixed skaven lists for good. Why even build a mixed army again if you can stick with mono-build and use your new allegiance abilities?
Sure, it's nice that clans are actually transforming into real factions but on the other hand skaven were always all about mixing and using different units from different clans for different roles. Now there is no support for fluffy and mixed lists - just mono + some allies and you will always pick WLC as your allies if you are not running skryre already
