    I'm really excited for the Nurgle release! It's not going to be that big a release it seems, so I wish people would just be happy for other players.

    There is a reason that the Kharadon were my first new AoS faction.  None of the others appealled too me. 

    Hopefully expand some old factions or make some new ones that I actually feel like buying.

    Kharadron hasn't been out that long! How often do you think GW should release an army with your interests specifically ;)

    Review of Blightwar i just read say the only Allegiance Ability rules in the book are the Stormcast and Nurgle battle traits. No command traits, artefacts, spells or prayers.
    I am a bit frustrated by this release - its basically a tease of new models, rules and fluff without any actual meat. Good if you want all the models but frankly it feels like filler in between primaris releases (6th different box with intercessors in goes up for preorder on saturday...)
    Will we be able to us that battle trait and the generic chaos command traits and items at this stage?

    I think GW has stopped doing miniless books for AoS. With 15 factions getting allegiance abilities in Ghb2 it is safe to assume that those factions will not get a battletome for at least a year.
    They said the reason for not doing other factions was a lack of minis or a lack of ideas. Both would prevent the release of a new miniless book.
    There is chance that we will get a nurgle book but I think blight war is the stop gap release there. So much like Tzeentch we may see a full book plus minis next year.
    Aelves are definitely on the way. That said the lion cloak and mini dragon arm may both be from Shadespire.
    I would not be surprised to see a quiet winter followed by a very busy spring again.
    GW are doing a panel about Ghb2 at the nova open next week, during which they will talk a little about the future of aos. Hopefully they will show us more than just the season of war stuff.
    Hoping for Moonclan then because they have plenty of cool ideas. Plastic squigs are going to rock 2018

    Here is a guesstimated release list for the rest of the year.
    aug 26- blight war 
    sep3- season of war
    sep 10-24 Deathguard 
    oct 1-8 admech
    oct 15- 22 shadespire plus expansion 1
    0ct 29 elf bloodbowl
     Nov 5 - 12 Necromunda plus expansion
    Nov 19 shadespire expansion 2 plus 40k codex 6
    nov 26 Dec 3 codex 7 plus minis
    dec 10 codex 8 and 9 
    dec 17 codex 10
    dec 24 40k chapter approved 
    That is already a rediculously packed shedule and I am kind of expecting at least one more big mini release for 40k this year.  It does not leave much room for a new battletome unfortunately. 
    P.s The order is definitely wrong but these are the releases that GW has already promised will come this year. Even if they announce nothing else, they will struggle to fit it all in to their usual release format.
    Could see a battletome with no new units for AoS sliding in easily

    Yeah but even so why would you ever not take it on a disc? Being on the disc is better in every way the fact that they cost the same points notwithstanding.
     

     

    If I wanted no daemons in my tzeentch mortals army, or I preferred the look of all on foot maybe. 

    Problem is when you say better in every way you do so in the context of points. If The foot guys had have been a third of the price maybe they would be better in every way. In narrative / open, where you decide how much they are worth, ideally they will end up being exactly as good as the ones on disks

    I found some prices on the new Stormcast release. Seems like GW may have listened to some of us about prices, because this looks like a really nice discount!
     
    Varenguard hunters (10man) $60

    Griffon hounds (x6) $25

    Liberators (10man) $62

    Judicators (10man) $62

    Prosecutors (6man) $74

    Battletome (updates of ALL stormcast) $40

    War scrolls (includes some tokens too?) $25

    Deathworld Forrest (huge terrain set) $130


    Anything out on this deathworld forest? Sounds cool

    The Black Sunz - Ironjawz - Update 28/02 - PICS! Whole new army painted!!

    in Destruction

    Posted

    Cheers guys,
    Really glad that readers here are also translating to listeners. I envisage being able to talk about Ironjawz/Destruction a lot on the podcast and tie it into discussion here - the next two episodes are certainly going to feature some heavy Ironjawz content as well.
    Case in point, @Sangfroid joined me on Skype earlier this week to discuss his impressive Tournament year with Destruction, this led into some great chat about Ironjawz including some ideas and list builds we've both been mulling over but have yet to really reveal or discuss on here. As limited as the Ironjawz battletome may seem (more so given the inevitable loss of the Ardnob and Grimgor), I genuinely believe we can continue to innovate and think outside the box....hopefully to good effect aswell.
    It comes as no surprise to me that after using them at events, Kieran would be thinking similar thoughts to me on how best to move forward - in fact he had a number of thoughts that were new to me, so it made for a great discussion.
    I'll be releasing this on Boxing Day, it's a bit longer than I hoped for the weekly format, but when the Ironjawz chat gets flowing, you can't stop it! I really hope you guys enjoy it and actually, I think you will. Kieran was a great guest and has a lot of knowledge to impart.
    I'll post a link when it's out, but you should all be subscribed anyway! [emoji6] 
    The week after that I will be joined by @Snoopdom where we will discuss selecting a new army in AoS, this will not be Destruction related specifically. However we are going to play a game beforehand and discuss that as well. I will be debuting one of my new Ironjawz builds in this game and will talk about how it plays for the first time in that episode, which should be fun!
    Anyway, this is my last update here before Christmas, so....
    HAPPY CHRISTMAS!!!
    Hope you all have a blast.
    Much love, Chris x
     


    I love long episodes so can't wait ;)

    No they're not hard to do once you get it set up, which admittedly did require a bit of trial and error from the French! I will put a post up on how to do it when I've finished watching Westworld :D 

    Awesome first season of a show. Enjoy ^_^

    Done!

    I think I've done these due to realising I could copy and paste the text rather than typing it all out (doh!). Let me know if I need to add any others.

    Added them tonight

    You're a hobby hero ^_^

    Is it hard to do? I went to read the instructions and they were in French, I've been meaning to do something like this for my Sylvaneth as I appear to forget everything I know during my games sometimes haha

    Awesome, I'll have to do some for Blood Knights and Vargheists, and VL on Abyssal Terror as commented above to fill out the soulblight. I'm doing a vampire slow grow campaign next year and these are great.

    Yeh it really is. You should check it out man.

    I might do a little review elsewhere of my experiences with the FEC, dunno. I'll definitely talk about it on the podcast anyways.

    Ok, so there will be no battle report today or tomorrow I'm afraid. I've sorted an early finish tomorrow for #RAW16, which means I have more to do before then.

    Next week I'll catch up with the final 2 Warchiefs GT games, my periscope game with @Forestreveries and then all the smaller campaign games I've played. That means week commencing 28/12/16 I can cover Clash and get back up to date.

    Any spare time I get today I'll try and catch up on some of the other topics in here and try to reply to DM's I've been lax on! @scrubyandwells & @MidasKiss are two I know I have in there!!

    Cheers,

    Chris 

    Thanks Chris ;) We should skype and talk warhammer and music some time. I'll even let you tell me all about your day.

    Don't most monsters have 10+ wounds [emoji85]

    I've been using a $2 D12 for my treelord ancient bought at the local gaming store... I Wonder how the "custom wound tracker" will compare in price and effectiveness [emoji6]
