  1. As a player, I definitely understand the frustration of having your army get overshadowed by newer releases and the frustration of knowing/thinking that GW won't get around to an update until they are ready to release new models. But to play the devil's advocate, we need to temper some of our wants and expectations with the knowledge that GW is a business that needs to balance keeping players happy and engaged whilst still making profit margins. Updating old warscrolls and allowing players to continue to use the same old models they have already purchased doesn't make GW more money (I also have very little knowledge on the subject, but I don't believe updating models and making new casts for them is very profitable either). It may not be healthy for the game overall, but powercreep is what generates the most revenue for them (Getting players to buy whole new factions instead of updating a current army with a unit or two.) I'm not saying I like it, or even agree with it. Looking at it from their perspective though, I can understand it. I also imagine SCE would be far harder to update, balance, and add to given how many more heroes and units the faction already has in comparison to nearly every other faction. I understand none of this is news to most of us, but I think that sometimes its easy to forget that in order to pay the people that have to work at giving us what we want, GW has to make a certain amount of money. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- To be more on topic, SCE gets updates nearly every year, so I would expect they get one this year as well, but probably later this year as opposed to the first half since I haven't been able to find any rumors yet.
  2. I believe you, I edited my previous post to include asking if anyone was aware of FAQ's or updates that would have caused the change in the Builder. As it is I will continue to build my Big Waaagh list with the artefacts and traits and spells from both IJ and BS
  3. I hope that is the case, and I believe it to be. I just find it strange that a couple days ago Warscroll Builder reflected that, but was just recently updated to remove the Spell Lore, Mount Trait, and Warchanter Beats options when choosing the Big Waaagh Allegiance. I don't have the tome myself, so haven't read the wording on using the Big Waaagh Allegiance. If it does say that, has anyone heard about any recent FAQ or update that would correspond with Warscroll Builder's new update?
  4. So I have a quick question regarding allegiance's. I was perusing warscroll builder today, and noticed it had updated some things when I was messing around with Ironjawz and Big Waaagh lists. According to the builder, going Big Waaagh causes you to lose out on much more than just Smashing and bashing and the other allegiance traits . You also seem to lose access to mount traits, spell lores for both IJ and BS, and warchanter beats. Does this sound accurate? I ask because I see Big Waaagh lists that include all of the above, most importantly (to me at least) the Wierdnob Shamans with Hand of Gork and Prophets with the attack last spell. I know the bonuses of the Big Waaagh table are amazing (especially 6++ and +2/+2), but you give up more than I expected when I was making Big Waaagh lists.
  5. Their profile is fairly weak on an individual shot basis. Its more about the volume of ranged attacks they can put out combined with something like the Maniak Weirdnob giving them exploding sixes with his warscroll spell.
  6. I am also very new, so I may be mistaken, but I don't believe your warchanter can have the Gold Toof. I think they can only get Realm Artefacts. On the same note, what does everyone think of this Big Waaagh list that I am thinking of building my Ironjawz towards? Again, super duper new to AoS (Though I have been reading up on everything for awhile) so any and all criticisms and advice are welcome.
  7. Thank you for the enlightenment. I don't know how I didn't see that on the warscroll.
  8. I'm just getting into AoS, and have been interested in Stormcast for awhile. I had a question regarding these shootcast lists, what is the purpose of the Knight Azyros in these lists? is there just an extra 100 points left that you had to fill? On their warscroll they don't seem impressive or particularly useful.
