michu Posted April 28, 2019 Share Posted April 28, 2019 Now I know why some people thought Forbidden Power could mean something for Tomb Kings. That terrain definitely has egyptian feel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greasygeek Posted April 28, 2019 Share Posted April 28, 2019 What is all this talk about 3.0? Why would GW make it and why should we need it? IMO all AOS ‘needs’ is for factions to get updated. After that they can keep us going by adding some of the extra units players ask for and they can keep moving the narrative and adjusting stuff throught GHB and FAQs. Heck, they can also add a bunch of mini campaigns and expansions. New edditions in its worst form means armies need to be totally rebuild and this was exactly one of things that had med leave warhammer for good,15-20 years ago. If It ain’t broken, then don’t fix it! This isn’t a Playstation or an Iphone. We really do not need to go back to square one every 3-4th year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GW have too much investment in the development to shelf it this soon. Just swap "AoS 3.0" for "GHB2019" then (the point I made is still relevant). Explanation: there isn't any 2nd edition of Age of Sigmar, just "new edition (aka, new GHB book, there isn't any Battletome or Book that talked about "Editions" like of Fantasy, and I only remember the Community team talking about "new edition" and not 2.0 or anything like that). So, instead of GHB 2019, I used AoS 3.0. Edited April 28, 2019 by Beliman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michu Posted April 28, 2019 Share Posted April 28, 2019 @Beliman AoS 2.0 started with corebook. GHB2019 shouldn't be called AoS 3.0 (it's confusing) but rather AoS 2.1. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, I believe that it started with more than that book: new core mechancis and of course, all 2018 books (Core Book, GHB2018 and Malign Sorcery). I just re-read the old news from warhammer community and looked to all 2018 books, and there isn't any "2.0 edition" written on them. In other words, it's just fan-label for 2018 books and new mechanics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michu Posted April 28, 2019 Share Posted April 28, 2019 @Beliman Yes, but it's used universally by community as an indicator of new edition and using term " AoS 3.0" for new GHB leads to confusion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sylvaneth are split into sub groups with the Forest Folk, Free Spirits and Noble Spirits which all have different leaders, but the Noble Spirits who are lead by Treelords tend to be the ones in charge of the Glades.

Well, I don't know what will come this june/july. I just aim for new mechanics and rules (with maybe a new box), and that's what AoS 2.0 was last year, so it's logic to use "3.0" label this year until we know more.

michu Posted April 28, 2019 Share Posted April 28, 2019 I don't think that Forbidden Power would a Matched Play addition (maybe some allegiance abilities like Firestorm). It's rather for Open/Narrative. And GHB's usually change points not rules (ok,ok I know, KO). Jervis Johnson said that it will introduce new tournament rules, but not all Matched Play games are tournamebt games. And it's more logical to not use some terms if you don't know for sure. Some people were using term "Year of the Xeno" for 2018 and other were dissapointed when there were no big releases for Xeno armies even when GW never promised that.

Yes, you are right with that point (Orktober). But I believe that GW will continue with the same modus operandi of 2018 (or something close). Imho, Forgoten Power is just this year "Malign Portents" (campaing with new mechanics). With some luck, we are not going to buy three diferent books (GHB+Malign sorcery+core book) and everything will be packed in maybe one or two books (core and GHB) with a new box opening a new conflict. Only time will tell if 2019 will be closer to 2017 than 2018. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s interesting, because all the Dryads, the Spite Revenant Sarge, the Branchwych and Branchwrajth, Alarielle herself, Ylthari and now this Hero are all girls, Then everybody else, including the Treelords are dudes. To be honest, I think gender means little to a plant XD Yet, I remember female tree revenants are a thing. There could even be female treelords, just no models atm 55 minutes ago, Charleston said: I am also wondering about the scale.

Really only time it should be considered 3.0 is if it’s a new core rule book. And for people who point out that GW never called it 2.0 they did call it a new edition of the rules when they announced . So it’s at least 2nd edition Sigmar though I guess some people have attached the 2.0 moniker since it’s felt more like Sigmar is actually being fleshed into a game with tighter rules and a more coherent storyline vs what is was in 1st edition which was like early access game. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swiftmus Posted April 28, 2019 Share Posted April 28, 2019 I love it! The Gloomspite half rounds out what I already have to a good size to start playing; I've also been thinking of starting Sylvaneth for a number of years now, and always preferred the Revenant aesthetic to the Dryads (plus I do have a box of Revenants I painted when they were released). This box is perfect for me, will most likely pick it up (the new Sylvaneth hero is gorgeous too). 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
