"I do not have a superiority complex. I am superior."

General on Griffin can be built without KF signs with the right chest piece, Demis have it on their armour somewhere. I kinda expect that they will be dumped, but that doesn't mean the kits aren't great. Celestian Hurricanum is similarely good, but quite a challenging build and paint. This was mostly advice to Public Universal Duardin if she wanted to get some taller models (if only to get things off the high shelves).

Greatswords, Demigryphs and General on Griffin are all great sets. It's the rest that's showing its age.

It looks like they have the balance quite well done. 3 above the 10% band, and 4 below, and two of these seven are expecting a tome shortly.

That is better. Still not going to play it, but three books is nonsense.

As far as I know, for Necromunda you need the core rulebook, gangs of the underhive and the faction book. Depending on mercenaries and game mode, you might need more. These are all full price books, every one of these books is more expensive than Frost- or Stargrave. This also means the rules can be in any one of the books, so you'll need to bring them and find the correct section. 40k players reacted weird when I did not agree with this. I returned the core rulebook to the store and purchased Snotlings and some other stuff for the store credit, haven't looked back since.

I think I'll have Lady Annika roll up to their front door in it. Lady Olynder and the Black Coach are works of art, I like that this box has both.

I purchased the Nighthaunt set, now I just need to craft an excuse to haunt my Pathfinder 2 players with loads of spooks. They are already well aquinted with Banshees, the Briar queen and Glaivewraith Stalkers, but at some point, somebody's going to drive up to them in the Black Coach.

Necromunda has awesome models, but its rules are convoluted, unbalanced and spread across multiple full priced books. If a Mortalheim system came out, it'd have to compete with Frostgrave, which is a lot more compact, and a lot cheaper. For a box of gangers and the books I would have needed to play, I could have a book and warband+wizard+apprentice for myself and THREE friends.

Currently, we have the situation where armies get a battletome mere months before the edition which it was written for is over. The idea of a longer cycle is that all armies have multiple years with a battletome written for that system, not that armies will not get battletomes for entire editions.

I am also okay if GW is a miniatures based company. It's the one thing they do that I enjoy (except for things like the Goff Rokker animation). But this just makes them ignoring AoS even more obvious.

Ah sorry! I just went off the date on the site.

I couldnt find every set, the Elucidian Starstriders are also 2022. I chose the Chaos Accursed, which are nice to paint and very well designed.

The Mortal Realms as a setting is brilliant. At one point I might want to run a game in it in Soulbound. Compared to the Old World which started out with just Earth and stuffed more fantasy in, its a breath of fresh air. Its not as dour as 40k and has limitless room to make stories in. The models are also very good. This is why I suggested miniature agnostic games. Keep yourself in the world and use the models you like, but if the game that is written for it does not suit your gaming group, pick another game that does. Frostgrave can easily be Mordheim, or a group of leaders that try to loot an old city in Ghur, or Shyish, or whererever. Stargrave works perfectly in 40k or Necromunda. Onepagerules are written to work with it. Reign in Hell could work well in the Varanspire etcetera. Just like you dont need to run a D&D game on the Sword Coast, you can uncouple other games and settings. When GW writes a game that does fit your gaming group, you can seamlessly blend back in.

Yeah, I don't really get the fursuit helmets. Pug faces would be much better. Or maybe regular helmet with dog ear headbands. Perhaps a clip on tail, and mittens and loafers with dog paws. Edited for a picture, because if I have "fursuit space marine" in my search history, you don't need to have that as well:

This is an excellent reason to 3d print pug, poodle and bulldog faces and put those in one of those transparent ball helmets on top of the space marine body.

On the site, they are not in Empire, and there is no Freeguild entry. Perhaps they are in the app, but I'm not going to install it to check.

Legends is just another name for "removed". Also, I think the General on horse and Freeguild Archers still aren't added to legends.

Waiting for a turn takes a while, AoS is not a quick game. Waiting two turns to see what you have left to do your turn with is a lot worse.

No soup for me. Soup seems to mean "no new boxes". Except an infantry hero here and there. Were I to care about rules, it erodes one layer of faction specific options.

They are smaller, and especially thinner. Dwarves have about the build of Fantasy humans, but are a lot smaller.

I love me some dwarves, but I have no Fyreslayers because I didn't see any variety in the army. I do have Disposessed, Grombrindel, Kharadron and a few metal old dwarves.

https://www.youtube.com/c/eonsofbattle just click at any recent Orc video and you'll see how it works out.

I do agree armies like Fyreslayers need variety a lot more, but I'm not going to buy new Kharadron when I already have that box.

So one wave with at least one unit, preferably 2-3 (including a hero if need be) every six years. This is in addition to replacement of old kits in factions that need that to happen. This would mean factions like Kharadron, Fyreslayers, FEC, Ironjawz, Savage orcs etc would have a few extra sets by now. I can't really comment on battletomes ghbs and campaign book because I don't play, but I would have the first out in the first two years, the second in summer and the third in the last four years of an edition. In the infantry heroes GW presented this edition, it sort of feels like these were designs that didn't make the original cut that have been recycled, and they sell them for the price of 20 Frostgrave soldiers. I'm not into that.
