GenericEdgyName Posted November 1, 2022 Share Posted November 1, 2022 I'm so happy the forum is back! It's been so boring to look it up and see the site unavailable message everytime. This place is the positive energy I need in my life and my hobby. It's been a wonderful time for me though, I played my first real game of AoS and the same they announced the perfect boxset that the sundered fate is. I can't overstate how much I love everyting in that box, the little pterosaurs especially were a great surprise. The S2D look perfect too and will probably become my next full on playable army (because now I'm not only buying things to paint but also play with them, what a world we live in) 6 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He said the source was Twitter, does anyone know more about it? I was just saying the other day I hoped the next season would focus on non-monster non-mounted heroes. Cavalry seemed the obvious next choice but I'll be very happy if its true. I just hope they incentivize taking those "fighty" on foot heroes that generally don't have a place in the game, and it doesn't devolve into spamming support heroes. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well based on what's been released model wise so far I think 3.0 is more accurately The Era Of The Foot Hero, so it makes sense to reflect that in the rules! 😂 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking at how the "Monster GHB" made most of the no super tank monsters bad and how the actual "Infantry GHB" is making most no-utility battlelines bad, I wouldn't be surprised if the "hero GHB" end being about avoiding all but the most essential support heroes... The GHB themes see to be more about avoiding the units they focus than incentivizing those units. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that used to be the case, but more recently rumour engines have always just been grey scale versions of promotional pictures if I'm not wrong.

Gitzdee Posted November 1, 2022 Share Posted November 1, 2022 (edited) I still think it could be hanging downwards, maybe not at that exact angle :). Edit: Looking at the timeline that most RE are at least half a year away, it could also be something Dawnbringer Crusade related. I still expect that to release somewhere after 10th edition 40k.

Twisted Firaun Posted November 1, 2022 Share Posted November 1, 2022 16 hours ago, MitGas said: The new slaves are indeed great minis for the most part, with a couple of them being quite sexy! I wish their cloaks and boots weren't full of holes though, it's so unsophisticated. The Tzeentch warband looks like something out of Elden Ring (which is pretty cool). I actually like the Cyper Lords better though, although all I really care about for my own collection are Tzeentch "Chosen" and maybe a few of the missing heroes. 😇 Ah good sir @MitGas! It has been far too long since we talked about The Architect of Fate and his missing units. I personally prefer these new jade-loving cultists (especially the daemon-bird, priestess, and the idol carrier and his magnificent beard). I personally cannot wait to get my hands on the new daemon prince, and all the extra bits I'll be able to use in other projects once I'm done dedicating him to Tzeentch. 15 minutes ago, MitGas said: "People are overjoyed TGA is back online."

Jokes on GW then, one of my favorite warhammer YouTube channels posted a video featuring Tomb Kings, and they showed off a new Tzeentch Warband. They can't break my spirit!!!

It has been leaked and it looks really good, especially the way it will impact individual units. Slaves to Darkness is going to be a really fun and pardon the pun chaotic army to play. Almost makes ruining ravagers ability worth it... almost! Now I just need to get me some fancy Chosen... and maybe my holy grail model Be'Lakor.

CommissarRotke Posted November 1, 2022 Share Posted November 1, 2022 I missed the first one so I'll take one TBQH. They're easily my 2nd army pick until Seraphon gets something, would be great to feel a Warden before buying in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sonnenspeer Posted November 1, 2022 Share Posted November 1, 2022 I think every lrl player needs a warden or sentinel to swich out the unit champion if you want to play with a reinforced unit 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sort of a mini Manfred game of catch me if you can, with impact hits. If this is the wording this is actually insane. What you can do is charge something, do the rampage and move 3d6 over units, then still pile into something (because you made a charge move you can pile in even if you're not within 3" of an enemy). Screening stonehorns just got insanely hard. Plus it works well for combo charging stuff and taking it out with mortals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
