PJetski Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 I saw a robin this morning, the squatting of Cities of Sigmar is 100% confirmed now 3 1 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HollowHills Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 There is no way cities are going away. They are getting continued rule support and updates plus feature heavily in the lore. The only way cities of sigmar is going away is if they decide to release actual new units for the major lore locations instead of using old whfb units. This is just more trolling. 7 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whispersofblood Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 5 hours ago, Doko said: The problem is tye double turn and not the shooting. Maths show how ranged units are overcosteds vs melle units when we do the ratio damage done per poins of every unit. But double turn double the damage of rangued units while dont do the same for melles. In my opinion the fix is easy: -remove doubleturn as maaaaaaaaaaany people hate it -or put the same alternate activate units that we have in melle but in shooting but this wont do anything if the enemy havent shooting The existence of the double turn actually makes investing in shooting more volatile, not better. There is only ever one meta problem with shooting, are armies with high effective shooting too resistant against other forms of damage. This resistance can be achieve through multiple ways but that is the measure in simplest terms. Personally I don't think we are there yet, but obviously I could be wrong.

Ragest Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 So the “rumours” are just pure speculation just based on the packaging of one box. Good. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Normally I have no interest in supplements due to this very reason, but the AOS ones always seem to capture my interest because things actually happen. The most hilarious one to me was Saga of the Beast which, despite it's title and main characters, had basically nothing to do with Ghazghkull. The 6 main conflicts in the book are themed around the 6 major Ork klans fighting Space Wolves on different planets without Ghaz or Ragnar's involvement. There is a short blurb before Ghaz's stats about their fight, but it's basically nothing, there is no overarching story/"saga" between the events. The actual lore about their fight is in a booklet in the Prophecy of the Wolf box set. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can dream that this will mean aos 3 will release with a human faction box vs skaven or something but that probably wont happen yet. New humans are definitely arriving broken realms has confirmed it Once full spoilers are out and allowed people will see how the old cities book is already obsolete now. OK, so you're saying that cities is definitely getting squatted because: Old dark elf models are getting up to date packaging with the release of a new city that is focused on the older dark elf kits There are new rules for including all Cities of Sigmar units in Stormcast Eternals armies That certainly seems conclusive to me. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The above point is really important and rarely gets talked about. Many shooting armies fear getting double turned as much as they covet getting the double turn. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zilberfrid Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 There are new Freeguild models, of course. Next weekend in preorder. You just have to put the weapons on them and shave a few handeggs off. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cities now has three boxed sets. Mostly elves, but there is also a proper set. I suspect AoS is next year, so it's logical to assume Cities survives that. Morathi wouldn't be a logical place for wanderers, phoenixes, humans or dwarves. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neverchosen Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 The only faction that gives me pause is Legions of Nagash and I don't eveb expect that they will be squatted but possibly expanded into separate armies or maybe losing access to some of the Nighthaunt and Ossiarch specific units.

Following your logic of boxes for who gonna be deleted i have some data. Every actual dwarf box is a new aos box as dark elf have got,so why dark elf wont be removed but dwarf yes? Also other data,the dispossesed warriors box that were deleted with citys of sigmar had the 100% new aos box and packing oval bases etc So the new or old boxes dont meaning nothing,units with new boxes have been squated allready. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a shame. I guess phoenicum will be the next city to go that will get rid of phoenix guard. It's actually pretty good news because it means GW MUST has to will need to release a new human faction at some point in aos 3.0. What rumours? Where are they abounding? C'mon dude. Please. A link. A source. Anything. Even "my uncle who works at GW says...". Did you have it in a dream? Anything at all to suggest you're not just saying whatever comes into your head.

Clan's Cynic Posted November 11, 2020 Share Posted November 11, 2020 (edited) I think even GW came out and said CoS is one of the most armies in AoS - even on TGA that's pretty clear. Now it could be argued that might've made them realign their plans for the faction, maybe not. I think all people have to go off is education guesses/speculation. Could CoS be squat'ed in the near-future? Absolutely and I don't think it would be a surprise. Could CoS receive continued support, updated ranges and/or new units? That could also happen. It's just going around in the same circles at this point. Edited November 11, 2020 by Clan's Cynic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nezzhil Posted November 11, 2020 Share Posted November 11, 2020 It is Conspiracy time!! Element Games have a lot of articles with a date of reposition from June. For the "conspiracy moment," I'm gonna avoid the only "available to order" boxes. If we take a look, all of them have the AoS 1.0 brand but we have three grand exceptions: - Slaanesh - Flesh-Eaters - Nighthaunt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
