  1. It would be great to have it confirmed so people know what to do with their BoC armies. I was planning to buy and paint the vanguard box but I’m going to skip that until we know more.
  2. Agreed, hopefully this is just for the emails and promotional stuff. It is a real shame that artist Thomas Elliot left GW last November. He did such a good job in giving AOS a more mature and epic aspect without being overly depressing, which I think is too often the case in 40k. I really hope that whoever comes in to replace him is going to be as good or better.
  3. Seems like a long way in the future, It’s going to be a challenge to keep the hype from now on till July.
  4. Fingers crossed ! All the players in my local club have left AoS because are too complicated and it’s really difficult to get back in after you had a break. I have only be able to find games at tournaments ever since. Hopefully this new edition will bring them back and also many new bloods !
  5. Even the ghb battle tactics are annoying and unbalanced, some armies can naturally do them while others have to make sacrifices (Who has ever wanted to play with units of furies ?) to be able to score them. Imo fighting for objectives is enough, we don’t need extra challenges.
  6. I‘ve heard the contrary, one last battlescroll before 4th Ed.
  7. There is still hope for a BoC refresh then
  8. Now imagine reading this while English is not your native tongue 😅 Tbh this was not the worst one to read among the latest short stories. I really struggled with the one where sce are fighting fec because a large part of it is describing very high fantasy elements, plus they were not even relevant to the plot of the story.
  9. This would explain why they have been introducing more Death gods into the lore.
  10. Yeah me neither, that « rumour » is only a speculation from the HWG who ´s never really been a reliable source. Let’s say he interprets more than he knows. Remember when he said to not buy the dawngbringer box set for fec because the models inside were getting an update ?
  11. This, the lore has been really poor in this edition IMO, many characters are still massively underdeveloped (Kragnos) and yet GW carry on adding new ones out of the blue, like Belthanos, without any foreshadowing. I understand that their job is to sell new models but it would be nice to incite us with a stronger background story. I’d like to care about these new heroes and the fates of the two dawnbringer crusades but somehow I can’t be bothered. To me, it feels like I am just reading a series of battle reports with many deus ex machina - here is god x and y, they do sth then they are gone.
  12. It's a mechanic inspired from the Nurgle disease points. It's annoying at first but you get used to it.
  13. https://www.warhammer-community.com/2023/10/13/liberate-the-age-of-sigmar-with-fresh-thunderstrike-style-in-realms-of-ruin/ This could confirm the rumours about the next 4th Ed starter set in which the first edition Stormcasts will be getting a refresh.
  14. I am talking of the strike first on the charge as it is currently in 40k: units who have charged will be able to fight with a strike first only after all the units from the opposing army with the strike first ability have attacked. Non charging strike first is therefore not irrelevant but actually more dangerous. Obviously you need to rebalance the game a bit, but it's not like alpha strikes lists are dominating the meta currently, most armies have access to strong or numerous screens imho.
  15. I agree with the points made by @Mutton I would also add strike first on the charge. I also find the engagement range of 1 inche in 40k better (instead of 3 inches in aos), I don't like checking up all the time the 3' space between units non in combat, I also don't like the possibility to fail a charge at a very short range and 40k fix that imo I have never really understood the reasoning behind the concept of failing or succeeding a charge in a wargame like Warhammer. I can understand that you can lose the momentum in a battle because of various factors (bad terrains, pikes, shooting...) and lose the effect of a charge, however you still end up in combat with your enemies by moving towards them.
  16. From which WD does the story start from ? I want to read it all !
  17. Come on, your 3.5 billion worth company can do better photoshop than this. It's
  18. It would be really cool if Ushoran is leading a death revolution against Nagash !
  19. That's rather disappointing, I'd imagined that the recent leaks of the box would have somehow accelerated its release. On the other hand we are getting more time for rule leaks to happen, which will help evaluating the content of the box and deciding if the army itself is worth collecting for gameplay purposes.
  20. While Matched Play is supposed to be the most fair way to play AoS, the balance between battle tactics within both seasons and battletomes has been terrible for the whole edition. I feel bad for someone who decided to start AoS with SoB, I really hope this won’t happen again in v4.
  21. There is still no confirmation that we'll will see a launch box 🤷‍♂️
  22. Same, I’ve literally shrugged when I watched the box reveal. 40k doesn’t inspired me anymore ( it did when I was a kid) I am definitely a fantasy bro now.
