    I could be getting this completely wrong, but a few months ago I recall there being murmurs of something huge being announced in the AoS world with re: to Forge World, I believe they stripped the site of a bunch of older sculpts? When was the last time we saw an AoS release in Forge World? The SC heads? What would you like to see? I think something for each grand alliance would be cool.

    Yeah i'm really eager to get some crazy fleet lists together as there's a good few ships in there! Like you said I think it's worth testing, funnily enough your suggestion of removing one of the navs and making one of the riggers into a block of 6 is exactly how the list looked before I submitted - however my plan was to have the frigates supported equally, I don't really want one frigate to be "better" than the other once they're split. Yeah with re: Skywardens i'm not entirely sold on them, riggers are "better" but I view them (potentially incorrectly) as 'support' units - and wanted something a bit more standalone. I've already threw together a BUNCH of lists but none that i've felt this happy with. Will definitely be posting here in future before/after some matches for advice! Right so onto battalions, i've always felt that the majority of them across literally every single faction are (IN MOST CASES) point/unit traps, and only worth taking for the CP/artefact/drop count - and I feel this is even more true for KO. Every time i've tried to include one for KO, I take what's needed and am left with a the impossible task of trying to shoehorn in the units I actually WANT to use. I'm certainly going to test each one and i'm sure there'll be at least one that's worthwhile (except Ark company one, I don't have any..) but for now i'm not exactly sold! OMG this is a BRILLIANT army idea, coincidentally i'm a scouser as well.

    Managed to pick up a large lot of KO, over the course of the next few weeks will be posting a few lists here in the hopes that they're critiqued, any responses are greatly appreciated. General idea with this list is a block of thunderers/navigator/endrinriggers in and around each frigate, with a roaming kill/support team of 12 skywardens the endrinmaster/khemist and the gunhauler. I went Zon and took the khemist to make the block of skywardens seem really spooky to the enemy. Below is the full list of models i've picked up and would be open to any suggestions, currently in the process of trying to come up with a quad-frigate list of double-ironclad list, although reading through quite a few pages of this thread they don't seem to be very viable.

    Any good charge-oriented paladin lists? Want to try and make use of Hammerstrike Force. I've knocked a few lists up but can't really pin down what stormhost would be the best...

    "Don’t be alarmed if you run into aelven Wanderers here. Alarielle forgave them for their retreat from Ghyran during the Age of Chaos and graciously granted the aelves sanctuary in outer quarters of the Living City. Now, they fight proudly alongside the Sylvaneth and Stormcast Eternals." Why couldn't we just have this narrative and give us a new tome 😥
  7. Hagbean
    "Coming soon" and "Coming next week" posts are usually on Sunday judging by looking at the community posts of late, the Beastgrave stuff seems to have finished with the last post being the "Pre-Order today!" so hopefully we'll see some new stuff this week.

    Anything that I can convert my glade guard into gets a yes from me.
  9. Hagbean
    full album here! Finally finished my 2k points of Verminus, took me roughly 2 months on and off. Playing with them tomorrow so will be posting some action pics! Many thanks to @Gwendar for the inspiration and sharing his methods a few months ago. Expect to see my Moulder/Skryre /Eshin/Pestilens armies fully painted over the next however many months!
  10. Hagbean
    Why are people even responding to this guy? Blatant troll.
  11. Hagbean
    Ah well, worse problems to have I suppose!🤣
  12. Hagbean
    Spot on buddy, as soon as the culling/news dropped I completely boxed up all my wanderers/wood aelf stuff and will re-assess what to do with it all when the new tome drops, I want to use as many models I own as possible before trying to get rid of them! Yeah it's let me focus on pushing out a bunch of Skaven I bought, really close to getting my list fully painted, at which stage there's the other clans... and my Nighthaunt! 😰
  13. Hagbean
    So I want to try and convert my Glade Guard into SotW, i'm thinking I can get away with just greenstuff'ing the bows to make them look a bit "flamey", thoughts?
  14. Hagbean
    Pretty pleased with these boys, managed to smash through 40 of them with relative ease ready for battle along with their movement trays! I've got 80 Stormvermin that are fully painted just need basing and then their movement trays need doing also, slowly starting to feel like i'm going to actually finish this list! Still need to paint: -Verminlord Warbringer (based/zenithal primed) -Grey Seer on screaming bell (zenithal primed/coated with contrast grey ready for details) I'm waiting for my delivery of masking putty from greenstuffworld (been waiting for about a month!! anyone else had stuff delivered from them? does it usually take this long?) before I do the screaming bell/warbringer due to some fiddly bits I don't want to overspray onto where masking tape/tissue just won't do the job.
  15. Hagbean
    Old Grey Seer sculpt and Gamesday Clawlord ready to be added to any of my lists! (Picture doesn't show Goldfangs actual golden fang painted on his front teeth)
  16. Hagbean
    Old Thanquol and Boneripper conversion, intend on using it instead of having to fork out the £££ for the new model!
  17. Hagbean
    As always thanks for the response Skreech, Already have the base size PDF!
  18. Hagbean
    A very simple question with a very simple answer, however it requires you to own Thanquol and Boneripper. What are the exact dimensions of the entire model? I'm asking as I intend to convert the old Thanquol/Boneripper models onto a large base and want to ensure the dimensions are fair as to avoid any complaints about LoS etc.
  19. Hagbean
    Yeah I was debating dropping the bell/grave for a cp as it'll most likely end up being used, this will be something i'll definitely test over the course of a few games. Likewise with the Seer/Vortex, although I feel more adamant about keeping this in, however I haven't even used the combo yet so we'll see how it plays out...
  20. Hagbean
    This is the response I was dreading, I bought like 100 Stormvermin a few months ago in the hopes of a severe points reduction with the new ghb and am absolutely determined to make them work, not only that but i've also painted up 80 of them.. I've had a couple of games and it's confirmed what i've been warned of about them, they're not really that brilliant unless babysat. I'm going to run this for a few games and see how I get on, any other suggestions on the list?
  21. Hagbean
    Constructive criticism on the following list would be greatly appreciated: Allegiance: SkaventideLeadersClawlord (100)- Mighty Warlord Command Trait: Brutal FuryGrey Seer (140)- Lore of Ruin: SkitterleapGrey Seer on Screaming Bell (220)- Lore of Ruin: Death FrenzyVerminlord Warbringer (280)- General- Trait: Verminous Valour - Artefact: Things-Bane Battleline40 x Stormvermin (450)- Halberd40 x Stormvermin (450)- Halberd40 x Clanrats (200)- Rusty SpearEndless Spells / TerrainWarp Lightning Vortex (100)Bell of Doom (40)Suffocating Gravetide (20)Total: 2000 / 2000Extra Command Points: 0Allies: 0 / 400Wounds: 155

    The writing was on the wall, but it doesn't make the blow any less gut-wrenching. They've essentially axed our only battalion, whilst killing off a model that was so integral to any Wanderers list that pretty much everyone who actually collected the army had 80+ You'll get people saying "b-b-but you can keep using them until ghb-2020! stop complaining!" which is an absolutely ridiculous comment. The army as we know it is done, unfortunately they can withdraw whatever they want. I could stomach the majority of Wood Elves being shown the door, but this is just salt in the wound. @overtninja I admire the optimism, I own 2500+ points of Wanderers, not to mention a further 3k+ of Wood Elves, so I can appreciate some of your comments about the older models showing their age, but this is the beginning of an extremely slippery slope for every single one of my Wanderers models which I thought were going to actually see some love from GW.
  23. Hagbean
    Upset isn't even the word, such a kick in the teeth. People will try and put a positive spin on this and/or play it down by trying to claim it's "justified" but i'd be very interested to see the amount of models you actually have. Won't be making any purchases for a long while, wouldn't have bought Warcry if I knew this was going to happen either.
  24. Hagbean
    Some Stormvermin that are heavily inspired by @Gwendar's posts! As well as the remaining Verminus list I need to paint in this entire scheme Threw an OSL one in there to spark some criticism and hopefully to point me in the right direction of whether to do the OSL with all of the models or not, or even just how to better improve it!
  25. Hagbean
    Do you honestly believe that this is comparable to reducing the cost of Stormvermin? Do you really think that decreasing their cost will make them an auto-include? If so we're on completely different pages. Comparing us to something even worse doesn't make us better, is that seriously the bar we're holding ourselves up to? -Verminlords -Skryre -Monks -Bell You've just listed all of the things that are completely holding the tome back from being a means of providing a multitude of wacky and wonderful lists due to their rather blatant imbalance, and although the HPA buff was pretty sweet it's still not enough to carry Moulder. I think this is unfortunately where we're losing each other, you seem to be too attached to this statement, regardless of its truth. I feel you're completely dismissing the fact that Stormvermin are WAY below the threshold to be even CONSIDERED an auto-include. I pray you are ❤️
