    I always find it peculiar how we've never seen the Age of Reckoning Skaven aesthetic for the Warlock Engineer. Warlock_Engineer.webp.1ed479b364c690a2d68318939c898635.webpI get it would fit the design of an Arch-Warlock a lot more, but I don't think we've ever seen a Skaven look truly like this Brass Beauty of a warp-wizard.

    That definately looks more like the Arch-Warlock rather than the Engineer, would be cool

    after study the book i am pretty happy in general(i am usually pretty pesimist as you know)

    have some bad and good things.

     

    BAD things:

    -mixed races are gone,every buff is locked to a race and coalitions are gone also

    -internal balance is horrible,per example all the dwarfs are useless(i think i never have seen a warscroll so bad in entire aos as the gyrocopter)but then the hammerers are great,or the basic elfs are horrible but the elite elfs are great,the human artillery,the stellhelms and the ogre are horribles but the cavalry and foot shootings are good

    -the battle tactics are horrible and almost imposible to do

    -the book could have been named humas of sigmar and not cities because the 99% of the content is only humans

    -they have deleted the 90% of buffs,auras,alegiance skills,reliks etc also the sub factions are almost useless and dont give nothing. so it is pretty boring to do list and change things because we havent options.

     

    good things:

    -the book have pretty potent magic that is great this edition(a sorcerer with +4 casting gonna be great)

    -every race have build:

               -dwarfs have a damage bomb with the hammerers(sadly dwarfs got the worst balance and they are useless)

               -humans have two options,use the foot shooters with mortals with 6 or the bomb of cavaliers together the hero on horse to attack first and +1 atk

               -elfs are the winners of the book,the blackguard is the best defensive unit of the book,the executioners are also the best damage unit of the book(better than hammerers),the sorcerer is the best mage of the book,ohhhh and have the best combo of entire book that nobody seems have seen,the pirates for only 90 points buffed with the elf hero and the spell of elfs that make a unit ignore saves dish out 12'5 mortals wounds(ignore save that is as mortals),so a unit of only 270 points(30 pirates) dish out 37 mortals wounds that is insane! also have the combo of cavalry rerolling charges with the dragons while the carriot is doing 6 mortals when charge

    -now that we have lost almost every buff and aura of the old book we dont have to play castle builds and we have more freedom while playing.

     

    in general i think the book have potential to be competitive,in special the elfs are very good and the pirates bomb is maybe too much good but the problem are the battle tactics that are horrible and even if the book is competitive maybe dont win tournaments due to bad scoring due to these battle tactics

    Typical gw elf bias 😅 i really wanted dwarves to be good

    This is what Im hoping for Mawtribes.

    New Gluttons.

    New Ironguts.

    New Leadbelchers.

    Dual Build Butcher/Slaughtermaster.

    Dual Build Yehtee/Gorger.

    Thats 5 kits that updates 7 units.

    Throw in Braggoth and Globb as characters and a monster for Beastclaw and that range is nigh perfect!!

    As someone who recently had to paint Gutter Runners and Night runners but also have an ogor army.
    xD gluttons ironguts and leadbelchers are OK and FINE

    Best focus on the other older models

    Hi all from first time poster in here but all time lover of rat people although never owned an army.

    I was just interested to here what the you guys think the future of skaven looks like in AoS?

    With WHFB coming back I thought it would be cool to see skaven and chaos  split off a bit different in AoS and expanding more like Belakors army.

    Maybe pestilens and new pestigors with maggotkin mortals and daemons? 

    Skyre could be it's own thing but eshinbcoukd be part of a underground chaos faction from the shadows with other elements of StD in there. 

    What models would you like to see for each of the main clan to bring them up to date? 

    Seeing what they've done with one of their other unique IP in Seraphon and how they've updated classics and gave new ideas makes me really hopeful for Skavens future!

    I'd like to see a new Skaven Daemon faction :D of 10 Bravery boys
