    ALL REGULAR HUMANS ARE 32mm-34mm already OPEN YOUR EYES.
    Aha, there are regular humans in the top, but hey just stay a Trump. I rest my case, the ignorance is strong in you.

    Another one for the ignore list.

    Wow talk about ignorant. I guess the Dunning Kruger effect applies to you this time, friend.

    Wtf are you talking about? Where were you been betwen 2015-2017? Just check Warseer, Dakka Dakka, Ulthuan Forum, Carpe Noctum, Bugman's Brewery, Reddit r/Warhhammer, etc... I'm not talking about pointless arguments about "my game is better" o " I have bigger ****** than you". I'm talking about people insulting the game and the players.

    Sorry to burst your bubble, but that's a fact. You can look up (just aim for 2015-2017 posts).

    I didn't say that didn't happen. I'm saying that it goes the other direction as well. The only bubble bursting here is yours as I'm not denying anything.

    I am sorry if I am triggered by ignorance. But ignorance seems to work for people sometimes (Certain presidents).

    you are plainly wrong as matter of fact, it‘s your decision to ignore that and stay misinformed however, so let‘s just stop It right here after this information:

    (Talking about feet to eye-line measures)
    WHF started out as a 28mm scale game, it slowly creeped up to a 32mm scale by 8th edition. AoS is mostly considered to be a 34-36mm game. Either read up on this or just measure your AoS Models.

    lmao comparing regular humans with Marines and regular Marines with Primaris. Just because a model is taller it's not in a different scale. They are taller in-universe as well, so that's perfectly fine.

    I'm done. :D

    You clearly have no clue what you are talking about. Just google it if you don‘t believe me 😉 And pls try not to channel your inner Dunham Krueger.

    if this was about opinion we could disagree but you don‘t know the facts and you seem to ignore them.

    I do know what I'm talking about though and about the Dunham Krueger ... firstly that's a low blow and secondly right back at you.

    I suggest we drop this though as it's pretty offtopic and pointless. If you think this is 32mm more power to you. I made my statement and stay by it. (that's btw. also the reason why I said agree to disagree. I simply don't care about arguing with you) ;)

    I model tabletop minis as a freelancer, even WHF was 32mm already 

    the last time I measured a Namartii it had 34mm to eye-height.

    I guess we have to agree to disagree then. And the fact that you model minis as a freelancer doesn't mean anything as I don't own any of your minis to judge your skills as a modeler.

    Hey, I'm an AoS and WFB fun. So a bit of both worlds.

    But like I said before, AoS players don't just insult the other players and say that the game is just an abortion (said in this web page, an AoS friendly forum...). I mean, if you want to sound funny, that's nice, but don't try to sound like  a moron. 

    You must have been living under a rock then. I've seen plenty AoS players insulting WHFB fans who prefer the old system over the new one. In the end there are the same kinds of people in both communities, just with different preferences. Neither group is morally above the other, it's always just individuals and those exist in both groups.

    AoS is 32mm+ and Epic Scale

    Lotr is 28mm real-scale(ish)
     

    No, AoS is still very much 28mm heroic scale. Nothing has changed about that.

    You're announcing a new product that's actually an old product to bring back old players who already have all the old product and just like 10 years ago they probably won't buy whole new armies since they already have them... So what's the point?

    Except that they didn't announce an old product. They announced a new product in the old setting. That's a huge difference. We don't even know whether the old models would still be useable. Perhaps it's a completely different scale.

    This is a lot of doom-gloom the sky is falling mentality for something we barely know anything about yet.

    I can't really see how two concurrent fantasy battle games set in very similiar worlds with similiar characters can work for GW if the models are the same scale.  They're not gonna bring all the models they've just scrapped back into production. They're not gonna want to confuse the branding by having the same models represent different units. They're not gonna let players use the models they already have if they can get them to buy more.  A different scale would seem to solve all these problems. 

    Pretty much the same way how two concurrent sci-fantasy battle games set in the very same universe with similar characters and even similar units work for GW. It's really not that big of a deal.

    I know you already know this, but there's little chance of GW moving away from the 32mm heroic scale. They have to play their strengths, and great sculping is hard to appreciate at that scale.

    That being said, I'd love something like Warmaster, even if it keeps a more popular scale as @sandlemad suggested. Heck, whatever keeps us away from individual miniatures removal would be great for me.

    Well first of all, GW games are 28mm heroic scale and secondly, they have a game called Adeptus Titanicus that is 8mm scale.

    I’d really love this, a 28mm mass battle game like the old Warmaster, written with the elegance of AT. I’d actually pick that up, unlike a new WHFB, especially if new WHFB is just a slightly tidied up version of the dreadful 8th ed ruleset. Sticking with that over, say, the cleaner 6th edition rules seems to have hit 9th Age hard from the get go.

    That said it feels unlikely, just in a preliminary sense. They’re talking about square bases and using the old branding so I would suspect whatever they go with will be closer to WHFB. 

    Considering new GW loves giving everything a new awesome twist I'd say chances that this one is going to be WHFB just slightly tidied up is about zero. ;) 

    That being said, my favourite was actually the 7th edition. It had it's issues of course, but no edition was ever perfect and most of my problems were more due me playing Tomb Kings who only had a 6th edition armybook that didn't translate very well into 7th edition. :D

    Yea, they just really get shafted with the rest, the command ability loses a ton of value due to the battalion doing the same thing for free.

    Well not exactly free. Battalions cost points. Personally I'm not going to include any battalions in my list because I can literally cut nowhere without feeling bad about it.

    That's the thing isn't it, it's years away and we have so little information, yet we have multiple people absolutely losing their minds that GW is releasing a game that isn't specifically for them and/or earnestly proclaiming that AoS is being cancelled/squatted because of it. It's a replication of the worst behaviours of the end times and AoS launch.

    Yeah, it just prooves that it's not the evil WHFB players but people in the community in general.

    Heck we don't even know if this will be a game in 28mm scale like AoS. Could easily be in epic or AT scale too.

    I still don't understand the train of thought behind that decision of resurrecting the old world, in whatever form. Anyway, for the fans, enjoy.

    It should be quite obvious to be honest. Pure fan service. People like it, people will spend money on it, GW does it.

    well I am not interested it either, but it a more a personal level since some WHF people really came at me nasty when I started AoS and I come to not really care for anything fantasy anymore despite getting into Warhammer through Mark of Chaos and Online. cheers to those to who are excited but I don't want to deal with fantasy players anymore.

    You do realise that a lot of AoS players are former fantasy players, right?

    I'm also not looking forward to how this might not lead to two fanbases coexisting, but instead lead to more of the "my game is better and that other one sucks" arguments. 

    30k and 40k manage to live alongside eachother just fine. Sure there are the people who occasionally have weird arguments with eachother but that's not restricted to cross-system ... people have weird arguments with eachother when playing the same army in the same system even. ^^

    I am sorry but the other legion‘s traits are just bad or boring - really bad design to slap all „good“ buffs onto Petrifex.

     

    I am not claiming they‘ll rule the competetive scene but they‘re ruining the casual scene. 
    So why should I collect an army no one wants to play against? It‘s just DoK all over again but more bland.

    That's a very binary way of seeing things but it seems like you have made up your mind already. Your loss. ;)

    If it is anything to do with the old world I am rage quitting the hobby, burning my rulebooks and taking a hammer to all my existing models.

    i refuse to partake in anything that rewards in anyway the kind of people that in the year of our Lord, two thousand and nineteen, make a point of moaning about WHFB on nearly every single AoS related social media post, or in comments in god forsaken places like BoLS or Spikey Bits (in fact for those last two just visiting those sites at all should put you on some kind of government watchlist).

    Hahaha good one. Pretty hilarious. :D

    Whoa. I hope this comes with a serious reorganisation because as-is FW can barely look after the horus heresy range and the WHFB/Warhammer legends side of things is several times larger.

    There are two majour things that need to happen for me to pick up whatever it is even before knowing any details: a restructure so they don't take ages compared to the main studio and moving away from resin for such big releases since it's way too expensive and not as nice a material to work with as the plastic from the main studio.

  21. Pro tip: Just don't use the most broken combinations then? There are other fun legions than Petrifex and the resurrects aren't that bad if you don't go with Arkhan or double Harvesters or some such.
    It's like in 40k a double Riptide drone spam list is not much fun to play against for most people, however my typical T'au list doesn't include a single Riptide (I use other bigger suits like Ghostkeels and the occasional Stormsurge instead) and only about 8-10 Drones in total and I have yet to hear someone complain about it.

    Can't do nothing about lucky hits with the catapult though. Just like there will always come a game where they won't do anything. *shrug*
