    As much as this excites me, it’s odd since soulblight was pretty much the prototype 3.0 tome and there are older ones that could do with updating more.

    vampire lord on nightmare yes please!

    On one hand, I'm glad that hobby will grow and more people will get interested in and have fun with Warhammer and war games as a whole. However, on the other hand, I'm not looking forward to an influx of new toxic fans of Cavill's and the insufferable pockets of the fanbases getting more vocal, abundant and just all around worse.

    Oh, other than this and one other forum I have no contact with the larger community as only play against my brother game wise due to being quite rural. Didn’t know it was that bad!

    It seems that Henry Cavill is in talk with GW for a war40k series for Amazon as an executive producer.

    Some people are saying that he will play a role in the series too.

    Not sure how it will end

    I know it’s not AoS of wfb but this would be amazing, Amazon have seemingly unlimited funds so in theory it can’t look bad and the living custodian onboard?! Sounds like a fan boy wet dream but hey if it happens I’m watching!

    People have been wanting this since the book released, so let's hope GW decides that's our one new hero in ghe next one. Until then, there's always the Vengorian Lord, I guess.

     

    On another note, how about them Sons of Velmorn? Good, bad, only casually playable?

    Love the models, haven’t looked too far into their rules as got quite a backlog before I buy anything else.

  5. Don’t think this warrants a new thread but wanted to gauge the feeling of others…

    There should be an option for a vampire lord on nightmare to accompany blood knights and blacks knights right?!

    It existed up until our new book and the new blood knight models are great so why deprive us of having a vampire lord that can keep up with them without pinions and a zombie dragon? 
    It especially hits hard when trying to run kastelai and keeping a close in range for the perfect rousing commander usage. A different command ability that benefited blood knights too would make them go together even better. 
    what’s everyone’s thoughts? Wave 2 right?!

  6. Just you wait for the scouring now the God Empress of Great Britain has fallen!

    In all seriousness the Queen passing away is a massive deal for the UK, even UK bank websites have headers similar to the GW one. There aren't many people in the UK who have lived under another Monarch, so it's quite an odd time for us on our little island.

  7. I know we've been through this and his warscroll says he can't gain subfaction keywords etc but according to the warscroll builder he can!

    Whereas, Manfred, Vhordrai etc don't get the option to. Again I know we've been through it all; just find it very odd and misleading that warscroll builder lets you give him all the naughty stuff we wish he could have!

  8. I tried him in a list not dissimilar to yours. He was the only thing I had left by the end of turn 4, took very little damage but I couldn't cover enough of the board in the remaining turn left to me to complete any objectives.

    From your game would you say he is worth his current points? I really struggle to see how he is myself, still think 800 would be fine.

  9. I know we are a AoS forum but with all this talk of Horus Ascended at what point do GW release a model and rules for The Master Of Mankind? 💩

    Personally not getting my hopes up for the AoS side of Nova. As others have said it's most likely going to be nothing actually new and/or earth shattering. I'd like to be wrong though.

  10. Does anyone have any list ideas for him yet? I was trying to come up with something for him to maximize his damage output but short of Vykros with him and Radukar The Beast bowling around together nothing great.

    If the IP was "dead" then we wouldn't have gotten Vermintide, Total War: Warhammer, or Chaosbane. There're clearly enough fans of both 30k and 40k to warrant a division between the two settings, why should TOW and AOS not share the same divide?

    I just find it odd/amusing given the obscene lengths they went to and number of people they annoyed to kill it off.

    It also stands to alienate players who have only played AoS or those that use to play WFB and went through the rigmarole of rebasing entire armies to rounds when they could have just waited a decade or so for WFB to make a return; that's a pretty sour taste in the mouth. I'm not against it but I know I'll never play it as my regular opponent has no interest in going back to that.

  12. Unpopular opinion: The End Times killed off the World That Was. It should stay dead.

    I am not hating on WFB, many of my favorite units in AoS are only so because their WFB counterparts were much better as far as on the tabletop goes (Blood Knights and Vampire Lords really were rather good). I was also a massive advocate of the customization you had in WFB. 

    It just feels like a massive step backwards when they went to such great lengths to kill it off. I'm sure most people at the time heard the rumor GW spent a lot of money to have the Archaon book shipped via an alternative route to make sure it was on sale on time. Why bother just to revive a dead setting years later?

    In my misguided (and really inefficient, can't stress this enough) searches for wisdom and knowledge, I've come across the most evil, heinous and wrong thing I've ever seen. My soul still hurts from this sight. 

    Stormcast Lumineth in Ultramarine colors! Pray ye forgotten castaways, for if this perversion inspires official fluff, there will only be one army in Warhammer to rule them all the release schedule. 😱

    Looks quite nice to be fair!

  14. It doesn’t say anything about being limited, hopefully it’s a Gotrek situation and permanently available. The novel on the other is sold out according uk GW:(

  15. I think if they had made one of his heroic actions from the battleplan a command ability (probably the first one), he'd be really strong and a really good (non monster) hero hunter! Obviously would need a points increase too though.

    The model floats my boat and the rules are better than I expected so i'm all in on him, probably pick the novel up too.
