Age of Sigmar General /aosg/

I for one I'm kind of glad the art ain't a total copypaste of the models.

What are you implying? The model is much less detailed than the artwork. It's actually to its detriment imo.

The main beef I have is that the artwork made me expect certain details that aren't there. As such it would've been better if they released the picture of the model before the artwork. The model on it's own is quite agreeable and I'll probably end up buying it, allthough I might do some changes to the belly.

Does anyone have that screenshot of the fella' from the Glottkin video that someone posted in one of the previous threads before the reveal of the model?

you know, I really don't like the look of this one ,but I think I've figured out why.
I don't really like the color-scheme.

I think it would be sorta easy to switch out that stomach with one from the Putrid Blightkings or the Lord of Plagues model.
they basically have very similar folds around the strap from his shoulder-pad.

Thats what theyve been going for though, ever since all those lawsuits

2 arms is unnecessary it makes the model looks cluttered.

Im disappointed in your mums slimy puss flaps but hey, life aint perfect

So far Dispossessed are in the lead, with Dispossessed+Fyreslayers Allies and Fyreslayers tied for second.

What do YOU think I should play? Dispossessed, while pretty competitive on their own, may get squatted, or maybe they won't get an update for another whole year. Who knows. Whereas Fyreslayers are an up and coming army, albeit one with ridiculously posed models and a penchant for hording. I wish this wasn't such a hard decision tbqhf

You've been making these posts for literally months. Fuck off and better use your time actually painting models.

I've heard the Stonehorn got nerfed hard

What happened to it?

Never, hopefully. Enough Nurgle is enough.

Neither of them are ever going to get new models outside the occasional one-off character. Nobody cares what you play. Fuck off.

Please don't make a huge mistake. Dispossessed are a dead range, they will never be supported. Pick them and regret it for the rest of your life.

...what models am I painting exactly? The hypothetical ones I've not bought yet?

GW is so fair and unbiased

Ya know, it's funny how the squatting of Bretonnians and Tomb Kings have had such and adverse effect on player confidence in factions. Ignoring meme meisters it's rather sad that entire model ranges are seeing less sales due to fears of being squatted, yet in turn that lack of purchase power is going to most likely contribute to said faction and/or units being sacked.

Insanely bad decision. It was insane, it was bad and it was insanely bad. Easily the single worst decision to come out of the death of Old World.

The artwork depicts the same character as the miniature.

Well, there are 10 books bundles and about 10 generic CSM products in the DG section

you gotta be delirious to suggest that dg aren't being showered in blatant favouritism while ksons are a meme "army"

And Thousand Sons have three book bundles and only six actual model boxes in their section. Your point?

Yeah the colour scheme is not optimal. It will probably look much better if painted with a more fleshlike tone like pic related.

>I think it would be sorta easy to switch out that stomach with one from the Putrid Blightkings or the Lord of Plagues model.
>they basically have very similar folds around the strap from his shoulder-pad.
I sure hope so! If not it will be an easy matter to just greenstuff over it.

Go back to your own generals with this shit .

All of AoS was a bad decision.
I'm still going to play Warhammer, don't get me wrong, as my faction of Choice is rather consistent in either setting.

I just don't know why GW has owned up and released a public statement akin to, "We fucked up, we royally fucked up, and all we can say is sorry." Honestly it wouldn't even be that hard for them to do another major rule and fluff rehaul that would merge aspects of WhFb and AoS, in both rules and fluff.

fuck off mate, it's perfectly relevant to the subject at hand

What sort of releases would you prefer?

Dude, Death Guard is the edgiest fucking faction

>Primarch is an edgy and angsty Grimreaper

Containment thread is over there:

diversified releases

Wow! Nice comment! Have some Karma!

>you gotta be delirious to suggest
I suggested nothing mr saltyfag. I just stated the fact
>and only six actual model boxes in their section. Your point?
That half of the 43 shits in the DG is actually not DG. Still, yes - GW is favoring some armies and not giving a shit about other ones. I hope you people pointed it out in the big survey instead of bitching about it on mongolian cartoon porn forum

Balanced releases that take turns to update every single faction one by one. If the is just one thing the old GW did better than the current one, it's the release schedule. New GW has fully embraced the favouritism it has always secretly harboured and decided it was a good move to take turns releasing two faction for the entire year.

Well obviously, but what releases in particular would you like to see?

i don't even give a shit honestly, i just want every release to be of similar size and of a different army like he said: if you're trying to suggest that i'm salty because my army was abandoned, tough luck, because i play seraphon and wanderers/sylvaneth

>Caring about Thousand Cucks

Every Death Guard players play list.

The answer is always that you collect what appeals to you the most, otherwise you're gonna have a worse time with your hobby if you pick your minis based on nothing but stats. The exception is that if you don't care about the minis at all and just care about the gameplay.

>Caring about Thousand Cucks

I'm really hoping they don't include pestigors.

It's too bad Tzeentch was taken over by beastmen trash.

>No more comebacks
Heh, nice try kiddo, time to get ready for school and get off Veeky Forums.

>Caring about Thousand Cucks

What would you use a bretonnian foot knight as in skirmish?

>if you're trying to suggest that i'm salty because my army was abandoned
I was merely trying to start a conversation about what kind of new models people want.

I'd actually like to see pestigors and some sort of emanciated humans as a sort of rabble to the Putrid Blightkings' elite.

Isn't it obvious?

Man-at-arms?

Seeing as there are a lot of different armies and even more individual preferences I'd say that it's not.
I for one would like to see them release a unit akin to the warrior part of pic related. Tzeentchian mutated Warriors clad in baroque armour with fish and bird motives such as a scalemail shaped as if it was made out of fishscales would be the dog's bollocks.

And it would be even better if they were sword 'n board.

That's actually pretty sweet my man, gonna have to take notes down on that idea you presented.
Be nice if they also put emphasis on the old Champions who had horror limbs etc.

So what the fuck is going of with these pizza slices? Were triangles like this a symbol of some shit in the old world?

Triangles are usually marking left from skavens, but my guess is these are connected to something new.

Huh, that model sans the giant hand is actually kinda spot on or what I want allbeit with a new more precise modeling technique.

...

This is quite possibly my favorite mini of all time.

It has plenty of detail, but not to a silly degree. It tells a story. It juxtaposes flesh and metal, then conflates them. It also plays with archetypes of a knight wielding a noble sword, and a savage wielding a wild flail. But the knightly stuff is tainted with deformity.

I also love how it seems to have 3 arms until you look closer and see it's a face whispering to the helmet.

AoS was so successful they reworked 40k to be more like it.

They have nothing to apologise for, unless you're just upset about generic exaggerated fantasy land getting blown up.

You DO realise more than half of the DG's are actually regular CSM stuff and their codex, don't you?

You know why?

Because they didn't, no matter what a butthurt assblasted whiny bitch like you keeps bawling.

You cant even begin to imagine how wrong you are, my grognard friend

Wow aren't you clever and original!

Was 2014 when the 7th edition Tyranid codex was released?

It also got alot of interesting stuff going on with its backpart.

yes

>tfw didn't invest in GW when AoS was released.

I was retarded.

Not really, though. 2016, which was defo nu-gw, saw updates with new kits for 3 new factions, more than twice that for lore and toolbox updates. All spread across mainly three GAs, with death being slotted for 2018. 40k similarly saw updates for 3 different factions, all with kits.

GW works on a timeslot basis, in all areas. JReynolds in combat phase commented this worked even on the story and plot, that they selected the different threads based on what they thought would be the right moment (with death becoming the focus come next year, he affirmed.)

I haven't seen anyone else actually make that joke yet, it fits the antisemitic theme jokes common to these threads and so it actually is.

Most people want Aelves. There are three Aelf armies and no updates whatsoever since AoS started.

>almost a year of 40k releases and little aos
>GW skyrockets

seems like people really liked the 8th edition

>Little AOS

It's going to be one of those discussions, isn't it?

Jan to May was almost entirely AoS based, with two new armies and new stuff for four prexisting army lists.

>Wanting to play a faction that is DOA.
All legacy army players should be beaten with a bag of spikey bits for being such poor investment planners.

Funny, many, many years ago, my friend used this model as his ultimate argument why Tzeentch sucks.

>My antisemitic joke that is very boring and unoriginal is original because it is here in a thread that is constantly assailed by antisemitic jokes!

Not only are you unoriginal, you're retarded. I'm so sorry for you.

I wish they'd release more Oldhammer inspired stuff, take Slambo for example. His sculpt is a perfect blend of old and new.

Agreed, full heartedly agree. Too bad that amazing sculpt is made from fucking finecast.

Now it halves damage per weapon, not total damage, which means that if you do it 10 wounds with damage 1 weapons he takes every of them.

Dear god, the HORROR. ;^)

There were people using it the other way? it was intended to work like that even before aos was a thing

Mine was Necrosphinx, lol

Is there no way to transfer models from bubblecast to plastic?

Are the rumors of GW massively increasing thier production capabilities true?

Possibly, but none of the old finecast models have been transition to plastic yet.
Either they have too many in backstock or their molds aren't capable of casting plastic.

You can also see the drop at the start of the years where the few aos stuff tske center stages, as long as it's 40k it's upward and upward more!

>Most people want Aelves.
Most people aren't actually most people but individuals with specific preferences.

>or their molds aren't capable of casting plastic.
I thought this was already explicitly said

somewhere

maybe

>no updates whatsoever
What are allegiance abilities?

Also sylvaneth are basically wood elves 2.0 if you read their lore.

Well the sword and mutated hand doesn't look good but the rest of the model is quite stellar imo. The armour manages the golden combo of being fantastical yet realistic and the gaudy helmet and the mutated leg gives the character an eery avian apperance that hints without revealing further horrid mutations.

>Also sylvaneth are basically wood elves 2.0 if you read their lore.
Kill this meme slowly.

>no updates for aelves
Wait, how many allegiance abilities they have? 3?
