What if I told you that I like Stormcast

First for aelves

I love them too

Noone would give a fuck because noone really cares what other people play. People hate the GW release politic - not SCE as models or faction. Just ignore the meme shitposting and have fun

Honestly the only thing keeping me from trying AoS is that all of the races are boring as fuck.

The only interesting one is Skaven and even then they're not interesting enough to shell out enough $$$ for a horde army.

>not SCE as models or factionthey are mary sue gud guys who are immortal.
Superman isnt fun.

I like them too.

Obviously I ignore and do not reply to the bait posts. Neither should you.

>spider riders are required for objective duty, so will end up just standing on 1-2 objectives doing nothing other than getting shot. This is why you need to use chaff allies.
Fuck, that's sad. I understand that even running more riders instead of second arachnaroks would not help because they are not really useful on their own and I will also lost my walking arachnarok stronghold, right?

>56780317
Slavfag please. There is a differece between not liking a faction because you find its aesthetic or lore boring and actually obsession about them. You are spending most of your day on shitposting on mongolian porn forum. That's actually sad as fuck but you gonna get banned for jew avatarfagging soon so well - see you in two days I guess

Okay, hands up. Who here has seen Mongolian porn? I know at least one of you bastards have

So do I if I had money and tike of start a Stormcast army but not using much of the default pieces

Sort of like that Barbcast Guy

thinking about a spider army, how's this list look?

Leaders
Grot Big Boss On Gigantic Spider (100)
Grot Big Boss On Gigantic Spider (100)
Arachnarok Spider With Grot Shaman (280)

Battleline
15 x Grot Spider Riders (300)
- Spiderfang Battleline
15 x Grot Spider Riders (300)
- Spiderfang Battleline
15 x Grot Spider Riders (300)
- Spiderfang Battleline

Behemoths
Arachnarok Spider (280)
Arachnarok Spider (280)

Total: 1940 / 2000

I have, it's not exactly hard to find

>GW will never release rules for a general model that could be assembled from Arachnarok kit
Live is suffering

is 15 the max for spiders?

no 30 is, I just wanted to fit in the third Arachnarok

Soon

By Sigmar!

Got some dices I ordered in the mail today, I’m hyped to use them in my next game

keep the dream alive

NEW GREAT UNCLEAN ONE WHEN

I really like mine. So easy to use and onubtrusive reminders. Before we used sticky notes and they were a little immersion breaking.

Along with the daemons codex for 40k

There's no reason to not put shamans or at least the godawful flingers on your spiders

It will most likely happen right after the 40k chaos daemons codex. Because you know... GOD FORBIT 40K GOES 2 WEEKS WITHOUT A NEW CODEX, OR ELSE HOW WOULD THAT GAME FUCKING SURVIVE?

This. Flingers are pure shit. So terrible. Nothing on the spider is pretty much throwing points away.

Shaman is always the right choice.

So I'm just starting AoS so I don't know, but how long has it been since AoS got a new battletome?

First quarter this year. I am not fucking joking. This was pretty much a year focused on 40k 8th edition.

We have seen GW shove out 10 codexes in 5 months. I am holding them to do the same for AoS. I told them very clearly in the survey

Flingers are still better than literally nothing though. Just barely

I will give you that. Barely.

Continue /comfy/ duardin posting from last thread.

Nurgle and at least 1 death faction will be coming out soon for sure.

mmm yes

Wew that sucks. Guess I'm glad my Tzeentch dudes got their book already.

Reminder that the new Rumour Engine points towards new Bedsheet Nighthaunt units.

Reminder that Spideys are one of the best armies for painters, right alongside Seraphon

Theirs was the last book we got this year. Enjoy it.

strawpoll.me/14555411

let see how the poll goes

Tzeentch was the first book this year.
Then we got Stormcast, Khorne, and KO

>no realm of metal

wheres metal, bro?

Fuck I knew I forgot something

Should I make a new one?

My Dawi were once from the realm of life, but then Nurgle fucked them up and they had to leave and crash at Sigmar's place.
Now they are in the process of reclaiming their mountains from Nurgle.

So I'm starting up Fyreslayers and I wanted to know if this is a good list to build towards? Its a damn shame that Hearthguard are so expensive per model, but I still love em to bits.

Also, I'm really wanting to paint my naked dwarves kinda like Duergar from D&D? Dark grey skin, whiteish hair, bright silver with blue tint to it (mythril) with very little gold accenting. Maybe a dark blue for the leathery bits. Cracked lava bases for contrast. I can say they're from the land of shadow and actually do use subterfuge and stealth to get around.

I ordered two sets, how long did it take you? I'm in NA

I don't think there have been any stories or releases or reveals for content related to the realms of Shadow and Light yet.

please point me in the direction of said content if I am mistaken.

I live in Sweden and I ordered them from the U.K so I got them in less than a week

I would say so yes, because my dudes are from chamon

Imagine how easy it would be to give the spiderfang a BCR treatment
>Arachnarok is now a 4-warscroll kit - Grot Shaman Arachnarok; Grot Boss Arachnarok (general); Flinger Arachnarok (War Machine); pure Arachnarok (behemot and maybe a spiderfang-if battleline but it might be too much)
>Arachnarok Shaman and Boss can be put on small base to work as heroes on foot (2 more warscrolls)
>Grot Scuttlings are now a separate buyable battleline kit
Add Spider Riders and Big Boss on Spider and we have 9 warscrolls. Shame that spiders from spider riders kits don't have backs - they could work as another cheap and fast but weak battleline option

Well, the Spire Of Dawn (IoB reboxing) little story happens in floating islands in Hysh garrisoned by Swifthawk Agents (= aelves).
And the Aelves in Silver Tower comes from Ulgu. And there is little snippets everywhere about those realms, but absolutely nothing compared to 6 others.

What is that gif from?

Could also turn spider riders into two warscrolls, one with melee and one with bows

Dota2

Dota2 iirc
Yeah, bonesplitterz savage boyz are splitted into three warscrolls so why not. I mean this is lazy as fuck but with so many warscrolls you could actually have some variety with list-building and still stick with a pretty cheap army box

Seraphon Newb is back again.
I tried out the Warscroll Builder. How's this list? I can make by grabbing a Slaan Starmaster, a Stegadon, a Bastilodon and 2 SC! Seraphon boxes.

Slaan tries to grab the "reroll 1s" for the entire army ability.

2 Skink priests since they seem pretty decent at shooting, plus give me a better chance of getting that insane "reroll saves, runs and charges" aura

Oldblood Carnosaur as Warlord so he can buff himself and the other Oldblood Carnosaur (could also run this guy as a Scar Veteran) 2 bonus attacks to ensure their "Pinned" special rule procs more reliably

Bastilodons seem really durable with Mystic shield/reroll combo, but I also took a Stegadon since that flamer plus the 3d6 stomp attacks seem amazing for dealing with hordes.

Knights and Warriors are just there for chaff.

All in all, if everything works out, the entire army is rerolling 1s to hit, run rolls, charge rolls and armor saves as well.
Anything I should change about this list? Switch one Oldblood to a Scar Veteran? Drop the Stegadon for a second Bastilodon? Find a way to fit an Astrolith Bearer for more rerolls.

shoot just realized the 10 man unit of knights should actually be a 20 man unit of warriors.

Just started rushing through the AoS Audiobooks on Audible and wanted to know if Beastclaw Raiders get any love, so far it seems to just unsurprisingly be Sigmarines blasting through every faction of Choas with little opposition.

nothing against spider grots but isn't there only like three unit types in the entire available range?

Its a good starter army

Get some games under your belt and go from there

mysterious

Reposting from last thread, idk what to call them. The idea behind the bleeding eyes is that these Stormcast are reforged sinners. They can't deal with the shit they did in their past and they're almost suicidal in terms of their tactics. They want to forget, they want to die and be reforged.

I was thinking something along the lines of the unredeemed

Blunder of the century

>want to get into AoS
>neither of my old fantasy armies are appealing anymore
>cant settle on a faction
>see someone mention shadow elves
>posts pic related

>would start army of right in instant
>have to wait apx forever
Guess I'm not playing with my friends. Fuck.

Sadly, yes. On the other hand I just noticed that spider riders can look really well just with a little knife job

That's one thing that bothered me about the riders was that fucking pose. I've never seen a spider with that pose in motion spreading them out is wonderful. So you use bigger bases?

T-that's not mine. I found it on some blog. I'm the poorfag user so I'm just doing some research before purchase

You think you have no content? Beasts of Chaos and Gutbusters have absolutely nothing. you at least have a battle tome.

So... Can wanderers use the one artefact that lets them arrive within 6" or the holder to teleport closer than 9" of an enemy? Or has it been FAQd?

well this is about 9 months old. As far as I know that's the longest any rumor engine teaser has taken to be revealed.

I'm be right there in line with you to buy new aelves

When we finally find out what it is, we need to remember to ask what the heck was with the delay

That might also be dark eldar looking at the skin tone. Could potentially be a new Beastmaster.

On one hand, I'm mad that we're STILL waiting for an elf or Death release.

On the other, I don't mind so much since the local AoS scene pretty much died out.

See, it's the opposite for me. AoS is really picking up here and there's nothing that I want to dedicate my time/money to despite actually enjoying the games I played.

my local AoS scene died out when 8th ed 40k came out

I wish I had a local AOS scene.

Mine is dormant. If someone asks people will pop out easily, but people are just waiting for the incoming news to get back into play, since we've been traditionally players of both the fantasy and 40k warhammers.

Forgot the fucking picture

Hey guys, we've set up a Wargames General Discord server for discussing shit and hanging out. Lots of regulars and retards to converse with all over the world. Even a handful of brand new AoS players just starting up. Come check us out.
discord.gg/J8A3ZnS

Don't you feel ashamed of whoring your channel here in the very butthole of the internet?

>ashamed of being a whore on the internet
You must be new here.

Any word on new Deathrattle stuff? My skelingtons needs a nice centerpiece unit to rally behind.

What is
>Mortis Engine
>Mortarchs
>Morghasts
>Zombie Dragons

Wait.
Spider Riders are using 60x35mm Oval bases. You can just buy a single rider for $3-4, spread it legs out and put it on 50mm base. Just add some extra bits from Arachnarok kit and you have a Grot Big Boss on Gigantic Spider that is not a shitcast model for $40

Not to shit on you, as i'm sure as indhividual models they look fantastic but as an army that just looks to much like a cluster fuck of colour for my taste.

The thing about SC is that they are invariably heroes, even the biggest dickheads and assholes among them are, so being called the Unredeemed would be quite odd.
Wanting to be reforged also doesn't really gel with the idea that the reforging process costs very limited resources, i.e the remains of the core of the-world-that-was. Sigmar has more preccing concerns than rezzing a bunch of suicidal lemmings.
I do like the idea of them weeping blood though (which might be their unique flaw when it comes to being reforged), so I'd try to go at it from that angle. Maybe they feel so strongly about the sad state of affairs in the mortal realms that they can't help but weep over it.
Great sorrow is one of the classic halmarks of heroes, after all.

theyre crying because they used to have free will and now they are sigmars zombie horde.

What are you working on /aosg/?

>"Come on you stupid go- I mean, proud Fyreslayer warrior. I heard Chaos has Ur-gold"

...

Man I love that color. I did it on my dwarves. Good choice, user.

Bump - what do you think spideranons? Would it work?

no

maybe

C'mon guys? I know that Big boss on GS is taller than spider rider (even with modeled legs) but maybe with some base-modeling like rocks and stuff... Is there any spider user to post a pic of Big Boss and a spider rider?

Everything
Still
I've finished 2 models in 2 weeks. I'm working on the eagle riders base and then I'll paint the eagle itself
My 60 still spearmen haven't come in yet... British shipping is the worst...

Jesus Christ i thought that was real
Well done user

Could have just googled it

Yeah, but I want to see them compared desu

I want to get back to painting my Dispossessed warriors, but I am going to take a break to rebase my army in rounds.
