foolsama Posted December 19, 2016 Share Posted December 19, 2016 So we've got a lot of 'Which army should I play' - and will continue to get more. I think it'd be great to have a place to point people, and I like the idea of an intuitive flowchart. Either as a large infographic or a series of quiz questions. Input desired to flesh this out and make it truly 'authoritative' since I'm really only familiar with several armies. I've started a very basic 'quiz' to review, here: http://schoolhouseauto.com/quiz Input needed to make it better! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arkiham Posted December 19, 2016 Share Posted December 19, 2016 It's going to be very very hard. And likely to change a lot, early 2017 is going to be heavy on the AoS front. One particular army can have many players styles, bloodbound can be both elite troops, and mass trash. They can be mass attacks with low damage, or low attacks with large damage, which does affect the battle outcome Now if you start talking about synergies, khorne can also be highly mobile, I've run a list, running bloodcrusher as battleline with knights, manticore, Chariots and gorebeast sweep to impressive victories, so there could be more than one answer per refinement, so it needs further refinement, which just makes the scope of the whole thing mind boggling, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or should I just code it... Why don't you make a flow chart. Visualize it a bit with models/artwork. So people get a feel of the army. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foolsama Posted December 20, 2016 Author Share Posted December 20, 2016 I imagine the flowchart would get as cumbersome and large/long as the original post... I'm envisioning that several answers to questions point to the same answer (like a flowchart) but they'd just show up as a new set of choices...

TerrorPenguin Posted December 20, 2016 Share Posted December 20, 2016 Would you not be better at doing this the other way around? Starting with which play style do you like out of these choices Then which aesthetic appeals? Then Id look at presenting a list - narrowing each combo of play style etc down to one is a tough job. There's a thread about FEC in the death subforum that suggests three different playstyles with that faction, so narrowing each down to one might be tricky.

foolsama Posted December 20, 2016 Author Share Posted December 20, 2016 I guess I'm OK with that - because that in effect presents more choices. So, if one really likes the look of ghouls and flying zombie dragons, but wants to play a certain way, we can still recommend FEC. However, if you don't want to play super-aggressive, than Destruction armies may not be for you, even if you like their looks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
