We do have half a dwarf range refresh as Destruction statue-weapons and base decor... So it's probably this one. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a lie, you just have to look at the numbers of participants in GTs like Talavera 40K and Fantasy in Spain. And many players who didn't spend the money more than 15 years ago because Fantasy seemed expensive to them, aren't going to start spending it now buying new minis or AoS releases that are more expensive, with a different scale and having TOW with low prices or other cheaper alternatives instead. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not talking about the current situation, but about the past. WHFB objectively were more prominent in those countries once. Then obv stop selling, otherwise we wouldn't have Stormcasts.

Lol. 🙂 I don't know about you, but my disposable income is not the same as 15 years ago (luckly). Althought my free time decreased drastically. About AoS vs TOW scale wise. GW has never been really consistent with scale between mini ranges, sometimes in the same army. But the new CoS and StD scale perfectly fine with Empire and WoC. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All i know is that these REs are never what they seem. I think i never guessed right all these years. Time to try something different XD. It could also be Skaven or any other faction fighting duardin on a daily bases. Edit: Some loot on a new mancrusher gargant also an option.

Skreech Verminking Posted March 5 Share Posted March 5 oh for those who where wondering if chaos warriors of aos are a possible way to play old world. yes it does work considering the pictures of a friend of mine ps: kruelboyz also have seen some rebasing 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GhostShark Posted March 5 Share Posted March 5 (edited) 1 hour ago, Peacaf said: You're right Fantasy was a bestseller and its audience still buys many miniatures. What's more, Stormcasts sell because people use them to make conversations with knights of the realm on foot. Legos have been used in 9th age tournaments, please let's be realistic. I don't understand what you're trying to say here at all. Are you not aware that people are buying both new and old models for TOW? Do you think thats not happening? Do you think the only people playing are old player with old armies. Because thats certainly not the case.

About the Kruelboyz, I think they actually look better ranked and on squares than on rounds. 😉 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marcvs Posted March 5 Share Posted March 5 53 minutes ago, Skreech Verminking said: and while some models are slightly bigger them tow equivalent, it still works astonishing well also, what's the "baseline" size of TOW? For instance, I am a new player with no pre-existing collection. What's the baseline Wood Elf size since I literally cannot buy an official one? as an aside, I am also generally not too bothered by different sizes as long as the difference is not huge: in my little personal experience of moving around Europe, my best friend from uni is 1.55m and the guy who stole my spot on the volleyball team was 2.06m (lanky ****** ) and they are both human, I think.

The Lost Sigmarite Posted March 5 Share Posted March 5 48 minutes ago, Beliman said: - Scenario 4: 8th edition models stay with AoS, GW releases old sculpts for longbearers, hammerers and ironbreakers (ignore irondrakes), and this new rumour engine is a new Barak-Thryng hero. Win/win (/s) You know what ? I think this is actually the most believable scenario ! This would be sooooo GW to try to resell old metal stuff for TOW. Have the 8th edition dwarf minis been shown in the arcane journals and big books ? That would tell us a lot about GW’s plans for the TOW Dawi.

Iron Drakes are a listed unit in Forces of Fantasy. Afaik this is a new unit introduced during 8th. There is no metal / old variant that they can use.

Is that the new ToW book? It's from a youtube review about forces of fantasy. I have the books too. For WoC (Ravening Hordes), the only units that are currently AoS are chaos lord (reaperblade), lord on manticore and the spawns. All the rest is old stuff. But the mini's are not "new" AoS mini's. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
