    The Winter Rules Update

    in Age of Sigmar Discussions

    Posted

    I have to say, I am very disappointed by the hedonite changes. I understand that summoning cost is baked into the units, but they still need quite a few more drops across the board and Slaangors really just need a new scroll. 

    I don't see how in anyway, with the exception of Kragnos, this brings the bottom armies up.  The top armies got a love-tap in most cases (Archeon Tzeentch aside)

    This overall felt like it was cranked out in a few hours and was not the result of some serious work evaluating the data that is available.

    Does anyone think FEC will be merged in with Soulblight Gravelords? I heard some thoughts/rumors.

    I doubt it. FEC are too unique to get rolled into another battletome at this point. If anything, I suspect it's going to be the removal of the Legions of Nagash and rolling the remaining units in Soulblight. They put Nagash in Bonereapers, and I think they'll probably put him in each death battletome as well going forward.

    I hope to see a new Vlad Model at some point. They've been brining amount fair amount of old world, and an updated Vlad sculpt would be amazing. They did such an amazing job with Sigvald.

    My personal guess is that we'll see all the remains from LoN that haven't been ported over to other books ported into this one. The new Skeletons from the cursed city give me hope of a new kit, as they look amazing. I'm expecting the same for Zombies as well.

    And of course, give me some badass vamps. The Underworlds models look fantastic, I just want to see more of them!

    This feels like it's going to be a a full reveal of the rest of the LRL models coming with the Broken Realms book, and a tease of the Soulblight stuff. We were not even really supposed to know the Soulblight Gravelords were coming, until the "Leak" (Which I suspect was GW anyway).

    I want to say the Soulblight stuff seems like it's at least a few months away. I don't think it'll be out until after Cursed city, and we don't really even know when that's supposed to come out? I'd say May at the very earliest, but that seems optimistic.

    The prices on the other page are in pounds and not USD

    Well Aware, thanks.

    Yes, but that’s all I’m comfortable sharing for specifics. I’ve already got my order in; the prices are basically the same as equivalent Luminoth stuff. Cav slightly more. 
     

    im actually bummed, I was hoping Cav would be $50, Myrmadesh would be $35...no go. 

    That's fair. The cav being more expensive is a bit of a s uprise,

    I agree and disagree. The new Keeper of Secrets is Stunning. Beautiful and sexual but without any cheap nudity. Elegant and deadly, exactly as Slaanesh should be. That being said, I don't really like the new deamonettes. BDSM demons is just as aesthetically monotone as Sexy demons, just in a different dimension. At least the Diaz ones felt elegant, which these dont. The new fiends fit that aesthetic though, so I quite like them, but most of the chariots and such are somewhat flat. 

    Maybe when they redo noise marines it will get itself sorted.

    Yeah, the new Keeper is probably among my 10 ten models GW has made of all time, and I don't even play Slaanesh. It is stunning for sure

    I also tend to agree they did a pretty good job with the most recent wave, and I'm hoping it sold well enough to justify a second wave at some point before too long.

    I'm fine with these changes, and as others have said, nothing is a surprise except the LoC ability.  Almost unnecessary since I'll be banking all those CP for Inspiring Presence now anyway.

    My feeling on DD now are that they feel a bit useless tbh.  I think the changes were good, but with those changes AND the requirement to use 2 DD on 2d6, AND no modifiers, AND no Mastery of Magic...  I feel like outside of an outstanding DD roll or buying DD reroll abilities, we will probably use DD once or twice a game for a big charge or cast.  Maybe a few smaller charges.  Not complaining, I think Teentch is plenty powerful.  But I guess I'm saying, if I forgot to roll my DD, I don't think I'd really miss them.  The DD roll use to be the most exciting part of playing Teentch and I'm not really feeling that anymore IMO. 

    To me, Destiny Dice are now really the glue that binds all of our other mechanics together, rather than being a super-tier allegiance ability on it's own.

    Honestly, it's pretty fair. We have a ton of stacked and powerful mechanics through the DD, Summoning, Agendas, spellcasting and our subfaction abilities.  We have to take a hit somewhere.  It really is to supplement our other mechanics and guarantee them, or as you said, on a critical roll. I have to admit that I am bummed out by the MoM nerf though, I didn't feel that was needed. 

    The changehost nerf seemed really fair. It is still very powerful and worth the points, just not tier 0 now.

    Yeah I ordered some 40k Exalted Sorcerer bits and got some Slaves to Darkness Knight and Warrior bits, an Acolyte Shield and either greenstuff the flames on the Glaive or try some Burning Chariot or Pink Horror Icon bits.

    I've been trying to acquire one of the new Chaos Warriors, but no one wants to part with one.

    It's not. People need to stop hyperventilating after two friggin weeks.

    Yeah, a huge amount of "suggestions" in the cancon thread would dumpster the army, and really demonstrates that people can't make rash choices after an event.  Nearly all the suggestions are absolute trash. 

    I am honestly not sure if GW is going to even make any major changes during the FAQ. Slaanesh dominated the scene for 7 months before any changes were made, and then it was only light touches to balance it, and it seems to have turned out well.

    The only thing I forsee going is likely the DD+Battleshock no modifies and perhaps some clarification on the Tzaangor enlightened in battalions. I don't think we've ever seen a post-release FAQ change points costs, so the earliest we have to worry about that will be the summer faq.

    Hm, well if true that's certainly odd, there's no reason why they'd have to specify Enlightened on Discs of Tzeentch for Skyshoal Coven then. I'll take note of that ruling, but i'll keep playing with them on foot until we get an FAQ to confirm.

    Well, it would make sense for skyshoal coven since you are flying over enemies, so they specify that it has to be the ones on discs.

    That being said, they may FAQ one of the other battalions to be only foot enlightened, which would suck.  If they don't put any mention of it in the FAQ we are good to go.

    I don't think they can, as it isn't bolded keyword Enlightened and Enlightened on Discs are a separate entry (such as in Skyshoal Coven)

    You can, this has been pointed out multiple times, and is even on page 121 with pictures of the relevant rules on why it's possible.

    trying to plan and start a Tzeentcg army of 2000 points

    but I have two little questions and need your help

     

    (1) why I cant put pink horror as battleline on AOS app AZYR? is it just an app problem or I missed something

    (2) how many blue horror should I purchase as reserve for the split? (I planned to have 3x10 pink battleline)

     

    Thanks~

    When you select horrors, you need to select pink to make them battleline. 

    You split 2 blues for every pink, so in your case  you would need 90 to cover all your bases, though it's rare you would need that many on the table at once.
