  1. But that is kind of a stupid, the whole new edition is about magic, spellcasting and doing stuff with wizards. Even priests, which blades of khorn do have, don't count for those options. So either GW should give everyone wizards, or do something like let priests cast spells and do the wizard actions in scenarios etc.
  2. Ah ok, so are people expected to play all GW games to have fun? I have some anxiety problems, so am not expecting to feel the same way, but how do people go on with their armies being bad or the feat that they may be bad at any moment. And am not claiming that blades are bad, am not good enough player to judge that. Even the thought that maybe someone at GW just decided to not update blades of khorn in the next few years makes me feel a bit sick. Or is it that people have to love painting or buying AoS books, to feel ok with the hobby, besides the possibility of playing all GW games and being lucky that one of those goes well for the stuff you picked. I have been talking about it with doctor, but she wasn't really happy about me starting that kind of a hobby.
  3. our secondary market for AoS stuff is rather small, it is hard to get stuff outside of stores. There are full armies being sold, but most of them are old WFB armies, not very compatible with AoS. I think the waiting of years is kind scary too me. Maybe waiting a year or two, isn't so bad if your 40 or older, but for me 2-3 years seemed like a life time. I don't even know if the game or faction is going to exists in 2-3 years time, or if I am going to play. for all I know, the store may close in that time and then no one will play AoS here. I wish I could do the lore thing people seemed to be so in to, or recast my own models to have a full 2k list. Does anyone know if GW ever explained why they don't do new releases like other games? Now I don't know many table top games, and played only AoS, but it seems that other games have new stuff coming steady with new stuff for all or most faction every month, while with GW you get 2-3 boxs and 2-3 heros, and then nothing for years. And if you get unlucky people playing bad armies maybe put in loop that can last for editions.
  4. Ok, it does explain some stuff to me. the edition switch seems to be brutal for new players though, they didn't get to expiriance or get bored with the good stuff, but are there to "enjoy" the nerfs. And the fact that people seem to be saying that an update is years in the future, and the GH didn't fix anything, makes it hard to go further. In fact it is down right scary to buy anything. Never know if something suddenly gets nerfed by a FAQ and your left with money put in to stuff that doesn't work. People here are very RAW, if they have a rule that helps them or hinders their opponents they use it. The fact that most people dislike stormcasts and their players doesn't help being merciful either. True, although there are still problems. It is rather daunting to hear day 1 of new edition, that to even start playing you have to get 30 demons, 10 dogs, 1 dog characters and a bloodthirster, and you dont even want to play demons just mortals.
  5. Some units cost more, others don't fit in to 2000pts, some got nerfed, plus his army is painted the wrong way, he wanted to have stormcasts from different orders, and the rules now say armies have to be the proper color. We have one GW store in Poland, or we had one, not sure it it still exists. 12 hour trip to get there isn't really an option to me. All in all I hope that GW is going to be adding wizards to all armies, maybe they can put the rules in a WD or an expansion book of some sort. To be honest I wonder why they didn't do it with the generals handbook. I ordered it expecting new rules, but there is almost nothing in the book. No new relics or units. At least the points costs are in it, but paying that much for 2 pages seemed a bit of a waste. I hope that kromlech or some other firm starts making AoS models for cheaper then GW.
  6. Ok, thank you. I hoped for something like updated battle tome and khorn wizards, or plastic models to replace the resin stuff.
  7. Does anyone know if GW is going to update blades of khorn battletome this edition?
  8. I don't have the parts to build a chariot, and I wouldn't know how to make one my own. The only way I can think of is to buy a regular chaos chariot, but that already has beasts in the box. I asked around at it seems like this is the normal GW practice, a guy at our store was angry that to make some character he has to buy 3 mounted dudes, he can't run 3 of them and the mni My store doesn't carry any of the resin models, they had too many returns. All they sell is plastic and metal GW models. Thanks guys, after rethinking I think I will just not run the lord on juggernought. buying 2 boxs to make one models is kind of a out of my league. Am trying to find some cheap good heros for blades of khorn, but all of them either sit in big boxs or high cost kits like bloodthirsters. I wonder if we are going to have to wait long for a battle tome update. Buying in to stuff is scary, when the units can be killed off. A friend had his whole SCE army made illegal with their new battle tome, and he ain't happy about it.
  9. Ah, ok thanks guys, I don't like resin models, they seem to be very bad quality, at least comparing to the plastic ones. I think, I will just wait till GW makes a plastic version.
  10. how do people get a lord of khorn on juggernought, the option to buy 6 riders seems rather pricy, plus it leaves 2 models you can't use. Or does everyone use the OOP model, because those look great, but are hard to get as no one is selling them.
  11. Does anyone have any tips on how to beat non summoning lizardman at 1500pts.
  12. But stormcasts don't forget the important stuff, just the unimportant stuff. They stay focused on the job, the way someone autistic would be, and there is nothing wrong with being like that. I like the fact that they are realistic in that way.
  13. And intelectual blindness strikes me again. Guess this means your done as mortal goes, maybe another unit of wrathmongers to switch things up from time to time, but it is hardly crucial.
  14. They sit on objectives and die. Running something else would probablly be better, though I don't have any other models. Blood warriors I think. Am not sure, but I think they are required for some of the battalions that actually get used.

    War Mammoth!

    Is it possible that instead of a huge mamooth, GW may decide to make a more normal sized one? something that could fit on a knight base, like an up scaled BCR beast.
  16. Got one as part of my AoS stuff present from my parents, and the other one I got for free from a guy that quit shadespire. Without them I would be playing with 140pts less, and I already haev 200pts in CP.
  17. Yeah it could change in our new battletome, but till then or a FAQ it works. Till then I am playing with this. Seems to work fine, as long as I don't play LoN or seraphon.
  18. Did anyone have a strong early Horus Heresy feeling from the book?
  19. Guys I have a question about the General Handbook, it has the points costs for Blades of Khorn units and some of them have stars on the left side of the unit name. I am assuming this means a change of some sort to the units rules or points costs. But it isn't very clear, if that is the case. Plus if the stars do point at a change of some sort, where do I find the rules for those changed units.
  20. Ok, guys I will hold off with buying stuff till chaos gets its battletomes next month.
  21. I kind of a just started, I didn't get that many games in. Do you think the Generalhand book will fix stuff for khorn armies ?
  22. What do you guys think I should get for 2.0. Right now I have this 20 blood warriors, 80 bloodreavers , 10 bloodletters, a bloodpriest, 3 crushers ,2 death dealers and the 5 blood reavers from spire. I thought about adding a bray shaman, but am not sure if I have to take any battle lines to get him as ally. I was also thinking about maybe running the blood warriors as chaos warriors with halabards, Also are 3 skull crushers worth getting, people seem to run them in 18s or more. I was thinking about running them as late turn objective grabers.
  23. The mounts for the new SCE are ok, they just did something with the heads. I don't know what it is with GW and heads, most of their models have horrible faces. Head swamps with gryphon riders could do wonders to the models. I mean the "ram" pegasus should have a ram or goat head, at it would be perfect.
  24. Guys do you think an infantry based mortal list, that uses BT for buffs and dispels and not summoning is going to be playable in second edition?
  25. 2 would be better. Maybe there will be a slaves to darkness one, and the mortal models will get the option to follow any 4 of the gods.
