I started on my first unit of Prosecutors and it occurred to me that they may have a serious issue in the new rules.
From Units:
"A unit must be set up and finish any sort of move as a single group, with all models within 1" horizontally, and 6" vertically, of at least one other model from their unit."
From Measuring Distances:
"Distances in Warhammer Age of Sigmar are measured in inches ("), between the closest points of the bases of the models you’re measu
Blogging hobby projects helps keep me motivated and any feedback/suggestions/criticisms from the community is always useful for improving. This is my first foray into the Age of Sigmar.

I used to play Warriors of Chaos, but the idea of playing the einherjer under the guidance of Marvel's All-Father Thor was just too tempting.
I went with the Hammers of Sigmar paintscheme. It's relatively

Green stuff gap-filling worked (I might have been a bit impatient):
I'm hoping the Vanguard
Vanguard-Hunters are done!
I've mostly worked out how I want to approach building up to 1000 points with what I have.
Leaders
Lord-Aquilor (General) [200 pts]
Lord-Castellant [100 pts]
Battleline
Liberators [x4+Prime, 100 pts]
Vanguard-Hunters [Axes x4 + Prime, 120 pts]
Units
Vanguard-Raptors [Longstrikes x2 + Prime, 180 pts]
Prosecutors [Javelins x2 + Prime w/Trident, 100 pts]
Total:
The question then becomes do I go for a
