This gunna be them, or something new entirely?

I'd LOVE to see GM and Destruction get the Nagash/Soul Wars treatment in 3rd ed
-
Next your going to be saying that Flesh Eater Courts are not a full army, they have 3 whole boxed sets to choose from!

You might be right the Grand Alliance system may not go away, but I wish it would.
I don't want it to go away at all, but I really want order to be split up, DoK, Malerion & maybe Idoneth should be their own thing, with maybe some other new shadowy stuff the flesh it out

This is the problem with the Grand Alliances. Death, Chaos and even Destruction are narrowly defined - you have to meet very specific criteria in order to "fit", e.g. worshipping specific gods. Order, by contrast, is broadly defined as "anything that doesn't fit into the other Alliances". Any attempt to narrow the definition of Order to a more specific ideology will leave several armies without an Alliance.
GW should just do away with Grand Alliances altogether at this point. They were a necessary crutch while the game was limping along with an incomplete set of Allegiances, but now they're restrictive and irrelevant. It doesn't actually matter if Malerion's aelves are Order, Chaos, whatever... the only meaningful consideration is who they can ally with, because Grand Alliance armies are non-viable.
Nah I don't think they should do away with them, just split up Order. Like have a "Natural" order and an "Industrial" order for example.
My personal preference would be to split DoK/Malerion/IDK into their own thing somehow as they are the least fitting in my opinion, but they are also all Aelves and I don't want to make it just an Aelf faction, more shadow murder faction...

I wish that Grimnir and the Fyreslayers were under the Destruction banner. I also think it would have been cool if IDK were also destruction but their associated God obviously wouldn't be.
I used to say this all the time! Orders too top heavy, and I kinda wish they would split the shadowy-aelfy stuff from order too.

Ok I'll concede that with Death the Mortarch's can pretty much be Nagash's pantheon, so that's good enough. I really want to see a properly fleshed out Soulblight thing happen though.

I was thinking about it recently that 1 thing that really sets apart Order/Chaos with Death/Destruction is the former are lead by pantheons where as the latter just by 1 god. So to help raise these 2 factions I was thinking it would be cool if they added at least 1 extra god to each of these.
Death: Raise up one of the Vampires. Not Mannfred or Neferata as they already have their own rules and would ****** with the game too much, but Diefy Vlad or Isabella like how Melekith turned into Melerion. So still have Nagash still rule over all the dead-dead boney-ghosty stuff, and have this new god rule over all the semi-living stuff like the vamps, flesh eaters and bring back more wolf & bat stuff.
Destruction: Re-split Gork & Mork but both retain their full power. Have Gork more fully representing the giant beast side of destruction, iron jaws and maw tribes and gargants, and other big beasts. Have Mork fully representing the tricky stuff like the bad moon and spiders and kunning bonesplitters.
Probably totally crazy fan-fictioning but what does everyone else think? Any other ideas on how to raise up and expand Death & Destruction?

The first hero that can take the God-Forged Blade HAS to, so if you have just named, it's lost.
But as soon as you have the named hero, and then a generic one, the generic one will HAVE to take the God-Forged Blade. Only way to get another artefact is to have at least 2 generic heroes, and a battalion, then you can give each hero an artefact, 1 of them being GFB.

It's funny seeing people constantly complaining about things not included in the very first book. Hold on, they can't fit everything in just wait for expansions. I'm looking forward to seeing it all come out hopefully, eventually!

Because time travel doesn't exist?
This game was written before all of those new games mentioned, and based on rules that have been around for years. Just always how it was been done...

Yeah it feels really strange that all armies from CoS must come from Aqshy and Ghyran.
Or they could just release another book later, eg: "Strongholds of Sigmar" with options from Ghur & Chamon, or 2 other realms

I'm loving alot of things with GW & AoS in the past few years (compared to the previous 15-20 years), and everything since the launch of 2nd edition has been great!
Currently my greatest wishes are updating all the finecast characters/elite models to plastic kits. Plenty of opportunity for multi-use kits here. And practically unfeasable as it's so baked into AoS since the beginning but I wish they would split up Order into 2 separate factions somehow.

Honestly the "need another book" in X faction can be used for everyone. Did nagash need to have another skeleton army? did Chaos need more mortals? does order really need a new seraphon book?
Yeah-nah, Death & Destruction are lagging behind, Order is way too top heavy and I kinda wish they were split in half some how (ie: nature/technology or something).

so the original high and mighty better than thou dark elf, the one that had a superiority complex and enslaved everyone, the Elf that was reborn as not only the Phoenix King but the ever loving Eternity King, the guy who both split apart and reunited the elf species as a whole is now abandoning his elves and instead taking on snot nosed goblins as his worshipers?
Didn't Malekith go through enough in the old world, or do you have to embarrass him more?
Really, though, I think a shadow demon army in destruction would be good! I just don't think that Malerion is the guy for the job.
At the same time, does Order really need another Aelf book with a different colour scheme?
Also I don't see driven completely mad into a primal rage as embarrassing.

Either way, as long as the result is more variety for destruction!

Ooo I'd really like that. Maybe that if they were ever to step on Ulgu or be covered by shadow, their 'true' or alter form would be revealed.
Hey hey, that's Malerion's territory.
I actually have a totally crazy out-there wish that they will somehow re-write/retcon Malerion's current story line and make him go all mad and primal, and he ends up following some giant dark menacing form in the shadows... AND HE'S LAUNCHED AS A DESTRUCTION FACTION!

Ahhh, it's under daemons, not S2D..
Ok I see it now, sorry.

This seems to be the only model missing from the base sizes FAQ (unless I missed it?). Does any one else find this annoying or just me?
(I know the old boxed model doesn't come with a base, but EVERYTHING in AoS has a base to it shouldn't be hard to get people to officially base it, otherwise it looks out of place and causes rules issues... And is just plain annoying)
-
Why no Soulgrinder in the bases size document? That's the most needed model for clarification surely!

I’m suspicious. The Witch Hunter and Excelsior Warpriest missing from Cities of Sigmar. The Order of Azyr is pretty present in the fluff of the AoS Black Library I’ve read. Maybe I’m reading too much into it, but there could be a new mortal based Azyr army hiding somewhere ready to come out with this “rules for fighting in Azyr” expansion. Maybe just wishful thinking!
The book pretty much only covers cities in Gyran & Aqshy, leaving plenty more options open to come I reckon.

Yes, more spiders and beasts! I'm all for this sort of story advancement.
