This is the rumor I’ve seen for grand strategies and battle tactics.

In the War-Com article when they announced The Hunt, they mentioned that the Gods and Heroes rules were still in effect and had been incorporated into the FAQs. If you check the FAQs, you will find them there. Kragos' new warscroll is the errata for Orruk Warclans. Archaon's warscroll is in the Errata for StD. Nagash's new warscroll is in the errata for Soulblight. The changes to the core rules are on the last page of the errata and not in their respective sections, which would be easier to deal with.

Welcome to the community! I've never played with square bases, but my understanding was that the previous edition was much simpler and easier to play. The current version is more complicated than the last. Goonhammer recently posted an intro to matched play, which some people would argue is the type you play you do when you meet up with strangers. https://www.goonhammer.com/intro-to-matched-play/

It is the Sons of Behemat ability on the Mega-gargants warscroll card. Son of Behemat: If a spell or ability would slay this model without any wounds or mortal wounds being inflicted by the spell or ability, this model suffers D6 mortal wounds instead. This ability is also on all of the mercenary warscroll cards for the megas as well (from the new app). The mancrusher gargants do not get this ability.

Companies destroying their products to not dilute their brand is unfortunately very common. There has been somethings online lately about Whole Foods throwing away not expired food. This article about that also mentions Coach (purses) destroying their products: https://www.newsweek.com/whole-foods-food-waste-bread-tiktok-dumpster-diving-1639659 And of course there is the Atari dump thing from a long time ago: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atari_video_game_burial

These look like the ones that Joerpg on Twitter made. I first found them in AoS Coach’s discord channel.

It was shown in the GHB 2021 preview videos. Coalition units cannot be battleline in the pitched battles battlepack. I did not watch the preview videos for the core book, so I don’t know about the contest of generals battlepack.

Warscroll builder still hasn't been updated with points from Broken Realm Kragnos, which had seemed odd and now seems worrisome.

I agree. "Nostalgic look back"?! I feel like I just bought the Soulblight Gravelords Battletome last month! And since everyone says it was designed for 3.0, I'm assuming a new battletome isn't coming anytime soon. Am I going to have to buy it again?

Teaching someone AOS in the future is going to be like teaching some one to play Fizzbin!

I am really hoping that there is a battlepack for casual matched play or what you non-celiacs call beer and pretzel gaming. I don't think I'm ever going to a tournament and in my group we've never had trouble deciding if we are taking "mean" lists or fun lists or monster-mash lists or any other type of list we'd like to play.

So I have a unit of 20 pink horrors that is down to 40 blues, can I roll 20 dice and bring back some pinks? That just seems broken to me.

I’m telling myself that they will be fast to build (how many pieces can there be anyway?) and paint (spray chaos black and drybrush, drybrush, drybrush!)

I'm putting serious effort into building, painting and basing, so I will be as ready as possible for the dominion box. I'm also trying to try out the battalions that I've always wanted to use before 3.0 comes along in case I can no longer use them in match play. I played 2500 points of the Omniscent Oracles the other day (Tzeentch) and it was loads of fun. I might want to repeat that game.

I don’t like the yellow skintones either. It looks like they are all dying of jaundice. When I google images “hobgoblins” I get mostly green, red or gray skintones. It will be good to see how others paint them. The gray or red seems most appealing to me.
