Well that is bloody brilliant! 

[Ironjawz the road to 2000pts. Custom sculpts and 3D printing.]

Sweet I too am trying out zbrush (core) to do soem sculpting. Not sure I am up to this standard though!

[Ironjawz the road to 2000pts. Custom sculpts and 3D printing.]

This is great! What did you use to print out and get so much detail?

Love how these models still hold up.  Was it a pain to get rid of the gap on the fur?

 

[Spite Revenants Unbridled Malice Any Good?]

It's impossible to say if a Battleshock roll is successful without the modified roll. 

[Warcry is Killteam/Mordheim... ?]

These prices are great. The best thing is it's a new game it's not part of the usual AoS main game so by not investing in it you don't miss out on anything if you play AoS main game.

Similarly, I'm not one for conspiracy theories but the Bloodthirster price hike and corresponding points drop is also a bad look. Certainly encourages looking at buying elsewhere, if just on principle, which personally I wouldn't have considered if there was a heads up message. 

Or they were simplifying their pricing model so every Greater Daemon is $140 USD.

 

By the looks of this thread no one was buying Acolytes even at $12.

GW is a business. They raise their prices how they see if. The adage if you don't like it don't buy it applies. 

You can voice your opinion but vote with your dollar. Being a business they need to take care of their shareholders and owe nothing really to the "community" if sales start dropping they will change but outside of that nothing will change. 

I doubt they just randomly chose this to increase along with everything else. It could be brexit protection in their pricing or it could be just to meet their sales targets they have internally set. Not being part of the company we can only speculate. 

 

But to reiterate GW owes you nothing... They want to keep your business only because you generate bottom line. They do not care what project you were working on or how much money you have as disposable income. They care about their business and making it successful. 

[Wanting a mercenaries topic thread]

Sadly just like the realm rules I see the competitive community not using these widely. 

[Just can’t understand Terrain placement?]

This would be because the newly summoned unit has to be wholly within 9" of the gravesite and more than 9" away from any enemy models. When you garrison the terrain units must treat the terrain garrisoned as if it was an enemy model. . It would be impossible to be wholly within 9" and more than 9" away at the same time.

This is by far my favorite paint thread here. Love your style.

Have i lost some step or did they remove generic Greenskinz from the shop? Boarboyz, Orruks, Boss on wyvern and the one on foot with a better waagh then the mawcrusha.

 

Greenskins were removed when Gloomspite was released. 

[Daves colorchest. Mainly Orcs, Chaos and Wood Elves]

Well that archer is fantastic. Simple headswap and it completely changes the model. Well done.

I think it's due to their ties with the Village Idiot. Even if they did reject him in the end they are still his children and hence tarnished. 

[AoS 2 - Slaves to Darkness / Darkoath Discussion]

I do not think we will see the horsemen replaced. They are a fantastic kit.

Skaven don't have enough plastic models to make an army with just book release (IMHO)

14 plastic kits with almost 20 variants.  They have plenty of plastic kits. Problem would be more variety within those kits for the more esoteric warscrolls  to make the tome varied.

The FEC book going OOS. Could it be just a transference over to softback for the book?

It is what I am doing, though my Sourbreaths are on 40s and the new Rockguts are on 50s and look bigger.

They say they have shown all the new models but not their variants. I would guess there is an alternative troll build.

Or maybe stabba is just the name for the unit regardless of how they are armed. 

[A Bad Rule for the Bad Moon]

****EDITED AS I FAILED TO READ****

 

A 16.66% chance to do 1-3 wounds 5 times a game. I feel there will be better choices for this ability. 

[A Bad Rule for the Bad Moon]

Sorry to be clear I was referring to the example of a model in a house with a table and a shield. The examples I gave can touch that model without having a counter point from the opposing player tbh. 

 

[A Bad Rule for the Bad Moon]

How is your example any different from an endless spell like say the comet? Dracoth breath? Sylvaneth rousing the woods ability, or the Maggotkin ability? We have these things in the game already and I am guessing those are not fun for you too. But regardless if you think it is not fun it might be thematic or fun for the other players and it sounds like it is a very much a small piece of the game.

Your interpretation of the rule does not make it a bad rule. It makes it a bad rule for you. 

Games designers look for thematic and enjoyable rules within their games. If the majority didn't like it fair enough but a small minority means it will be a success. Whether this is the former or the later remains to be seen until the 12th at the minimum.
