This is one of if not THE best SC out there (will buy a third one soon). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah the heroes aren’t always useful to have two off. But when you start an army 2 are almost always great. And cheaper even with a hero left over. 2x beastclaw raiders + one butcher and you have a 1,5 army. Add one more for a 2K army that’s very close to the list that one a tournament. 2x KO plus a frigate and you have a 1230 Escort Wing battalion + 2 heroes. Which is a great core to the army. 2x SC varanguard is my stormcast core. Only need to add some raptors and I’m done. Slaves to darkness... well unique sculpts is a bit cheating but definitely not discouraging. And I have cities collection which does have some weirdness. greywater you’ll rarely need more then one. But take three of the anvilguard box and not only are you pretty much done. those are the models that drew you to that city I would assume. so again, genuine question, why do you feel GW is discouraging it? or did my factions just get lucky. I'm reading a lot into the Slaves to Darkness Start Collecting, but I think that is likely to start a trend of monopose models in boxed sets so that people are less likely to want more than one box (preferring instead to buy multipose boxes of the same models). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's assuming they don't have her corrupted after her stint of being MIA. KO still calling aether gold - breath of Grungni. But if to be honest I think that he will lead Gholemkind faction and Valaya (if she will appear) could lead femcentric dwarf faction.

King Under the Mountain Posted January 25, 2020 Share Posted January 25, 2020 8 hours ago, Clan's Cynic said: I'm excited, even though I have no interest in collecting the Lumineth. Why? Because to sound like a broken record, between these and the Warriors of Chaos, it seems like GW is hearkening back to WHFB's deigns with Mortal Realm elements, rather than going completely over the top. These definitely feel a lot more grounded overall, but still with an AoS spin that isn't completely bizarre and dare I say 'forced to be different'. They're recognisable, but not so far out they - save Teclis' fursona, arguably - would be totally out of place in the Old World. It means updated Free Guild and Dispossessed models (armies?) aren't such a fleeting hope after all. I couldn't agree more. This release bodes well for anyone wanting to see a more "normal" Human and Dwarf army. I think with the hints of Grungi doing something, we might see at least one more Dwarf faction. If I had it my way, these Dwarfs will unshackle themselves from the Dispossessed titled and instead have Grungi leading a mighty War Throng of traditional Dwarfs (With some Mortal Realm elements of Golems along side) to retake their Mountain Holds. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No offence but i feel you are mixing grimnir and grungi into one. because fyreslayers are wholly about grimnir and getting him back together. That’s their identity and they don’t need a shift in worship for an update. dispossesed on the other hand only need valaya or grungni to step up. snippets like this make me expect Valaya returning with a dispossessed reimagining. About the golemkind. reads to me the gholemkind aren’t that tied to Grungni either. And just like the KO he left them to their own devices. my guess would be. Grungni stays with sigmar. Makes the progression of stormcast a lot easier. Otherwise who will devise the next upgrade in the reforging. Grimnir and fyreslayer work. you call it an abundance of testosterone but reading the novels it’s actually a quite tragic set up. If the duardin that live apart from the cities of sigmar get an own army, seems likely to me, I’m assuming it will coincide with Valaya returning.

Will they wriggle their thumps for the rest of the year? Or start 10 completely new armies? I don’t think so. I am rather certain they'll go down the way of campaign books wich will also add new models to existing ranges. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kharadrons are descended from Grungi's realm in Chamon. I only mentioned Grimnir insofar as, "well we have a patriarchal, hyper-masculine buff naked guys running around, so presumably Valayan-Dwarfs will have a more matriarchal twist" but not in relation to the KO.

Charleston Posted January 25, 2020 Share Posted January 25, 2020 I wouldn´t be suprised if the Lore somehow let Tyrion disappear. Maybe fused with Teclis, maybe killed somewhere, or imprisoned somewhere 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
