Baron Klatz Posted August 3, 2022 Share Posted August 3, 2022 (edited) Ye, probably will just DM him later about it. But yeah guys, beware Privateer Press’ snake oil even if it’s 3D printed. Anyway looking forward to Vilitch getting replaced by the new Mortal Realms Curseling. win-win, GW gets some subtle FOMO with people trying to grab that old model up quick to preserve some history from the game while we get a proper one that actually fits the “cultist leader rising high enough that Tzeentch blesses them with a daemon tumor that can tell when someone in their cult is lying.” Vilitch’s model was awesome but certainly didn’t fit that new lore as you’d need someone more normal looking to be in charge of hidden cults or even be any gender which the hulking old model did not fit in the slightest as it was both unsubtle and only male.

No as it is sort of interesting about what it could mean for the whole industry. Plus it is still about miniature wargaming However, you are right about things needing to be nudged back on topic +++ Mod Hat On +++ Back to rumours for AOS please. The whole Privateer Press stuff is it’s own topic 😉 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love their products, but the price of late has pushed me away from buying much in the way of new stuff. That's been a boon for my pile of shame, I've gotten two 3000pt AoS armies painted in the last year. I'd really like to buy 40 more zombies for my Soulblight army, but at $120 for 230 points of zombies ...well ouch! AND when I compare it to my other options : $10 for 40 from my 3d Printer (8$ multi-pose STL file and $2 in resin), or buying a box of zombies from Mantic Games for $32, I just can't justify the GW price nowadays. If I played at a GW store that would be different, but our local league is all garages and local gaming stores, and 3d printed proxies have become dirt common. I dunno man. I have a vivid memory of a mate in the early 00s showing me his brand new colour inkjet desktop printer. He told me that Magic the Gathering would be a dead game by the end of the decade. I think MtG made a billion dollars or something last year. What is the difference between 3D printing for warhammer and Inkjet printing for card games?

The tournament circuit for MTG coupled with collector value and secondary market are leagues above GW. NVM that people still will totally play casually with proxy printed cards. You can play at most ITC events with fully 3d printed armies and nobody bats an eye because GW is still very hesitant about directly involving itself in the tournament scene. And even the tournaments with restrictions you'd be hard pressed to tell painted 3d printed armies from real ones, specially if you sprinkle bits around . If you try to show up even to FNM with fake cards in your deck they'll have you drawn and quartered. Really completely different games and play atmosphere . In MTG the community has a vested interest in their cards retaining value , and the company abides by this, GW has zero interest in letting your army retain resale value . So people are more willing to find ways to circumvent the cost of playing the game 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sahrial Posted August 3, 2022 Share Posted August 3, 2022 So my totally on topic AoS rumor that I heard just now when I made it up is that Ogors are going to be revamped to be Maneater focused, with five new kits that optionally go together to make a super big Ogorgant kit like Voltron. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RyantheFett Posted August 3, 2022 Share Posted August 3, 2022 Dang I missed taking pot shots at Warmachine before the Mod Hat came out!!!! Maybe next time. Back on topic discussion! Any idea when that LRL book will leak????? They have some floating around from what we got, but only got a few leaks. Did the other books get leaked early?

Sahrial Posted August 3, 2022 Share Posted August 3, 2022 The LRL book will leak on September 30th at 6:57 pm CST, the day before it goes on Preorder. It will be accompanied by the Tzeentch book, and a hoaxed destruction battletome two days later, featuring rules for a Gargants and Gitz faction merger that will be disproven within the hour by a press release from GW officially updating the roadmap to show the actual destruction tomes, and an unspecified tome that s2d will be paired with in winter. so says Sahrial, who looks into time, and speaks the visions of What Will Be 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haha, thank my Ex-Warmahorde friend who never misses a beat to talk about how they crashed themselves like the Hindenburg. My biggest take away is A Lot of those bad moves are suggested even now by warhammer fans for GW to take (like exclusive beta rules), not out of malice but because they’re all in their own player bubbles(like the 3D printer groups) and can only see from a limited view that may help them but hurt everyone else and inevitably GW because they can’t see the bigger picture and negative domino effects. Nothing is as simple as it seems. 26 minutes ago, Fellman said: God i wich grave guards look anything like this Man I wish! Reason I didn’t grab the Deathrattle SC when it was on discount because the new Wight King is the only appealing model in it(not saying the old skelies are bad but they’re dinky now). Hopefully we’ll get a Deathrattle Kingdoms update with Soulblight’s next big release that either updates or replaced with new armored skeletons & bone beasts meant to hold off the Ossiarchs from claiming their people for parts.

Gitzdee Posted August 4, 2022 Share Posted August 4, 2022 (edited) Has GW said anything about the status of the AoS and 40k apps recently? Any plans for updates? I would really like to see a list builder with more options so i could use it for open play or narrative. Or maybe include a Warcry section.

In their financial report they said things are starting to get back to normal and AoS was hit with delays due to covid and brexit so hopfully we should start to see things ramp up. And as we haven't had any big spoilers other than StD, fingers crossed we get some nice suprises. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, you have the year ramping up to a 40k edition release to squeeze the most out of the last edition, the year after a 40k release to flesh out that edition, and the year of said release with a big hype train. With a three year turnaround, that's the whole calendar filled. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully the remainder and beginning of next year is chock a block AOS. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
