  1. If you're a dwarf duradin  convertor like me, you'll know that decent plastic bare heads are like gold dust,  and the optional head on Jakob Bugmansson XI, this year's limited edition Christmas model is 48 karat.

    I'm already planning on picking up a dozen or so Jakobs, purely as a head reserve, but on the off chance you've ordered him and intend to build him with his equally cool Kharadron headgear, and the aforementioned helmetless head is going spare, I'd be very happy to pay a reasonable price for it, or even trade it for any other specific bits if I have them.

    Based in the UK, but happy to pay for postage from anywhere. Thanks for looking at this thread, please spread the word to any Kharadron players you know. :D

    I use mine as Stormcast celestar ballistae. I love the models too much to stop using them. 
     

    Not sure I’ll be able to use them with the new faction though... 😕

    Those are some properly nice artillery pieces. 😍😍😍

    And I have no idea what you'd use them as without Stormcast or Ironweld artillery. Har Kuron can still take CoS's usual allies, so Kurnoth Hunters with bows at a massive push...?

    She's only 1 entry in an army list. In a RAW kind of way this leads me to believe she'll just count as one. 

    RAW it's 1 in every 4 units in a Har Kuron army can be a Daughters of Khaine unit. Morathi, much like an underworlds warband  made up of a  small unit and separate hero is two separate units, on two separate warscrolls, you're just required to pay for them together, and take them together in matched play games.

    I'm honestly not sure the city rules make up for also losing honored retinue, general's adjutant,  and the empowered endless spells

    Losing the general's retinue and adjutant's only a hit if you were planning on taking a general on foot anyway, but I agree that empowered endless spells are CoS's biggest crutch, even if it is possible to play without them. I don't know enough about DoK to know if they and the new prayer are a adequate trade off, though I can imagine the temptation to run Morathi's new rules could be.

    a lot  of list I see here are dwarf or free guild focused, but if I were to be looking at Tempest's Eye from a largely AelvesAelves/Dark Elves perspective,  what would y'all recommend?

    Totally. Tempest Eye's got a pretty great set of allegiance abilities in that they're very cosmopolitan and make everything better.

    Phoenix Guard are a popular CoS unit, and all the Dark Elf stuff bar Drakespawn Knights seems pretty recommended. I'm sure there are people who use more aelf units than me who can elaborate on this.

    It would be a bit nicer if you used a few periods and commas, or just, well, sentences.

    Technically, the chosen axes were released after the initial AoS release. Then there's Gotrek, though his Fyreslayer status is a bit hazy.

    I do agree the Fyreslayer range is small and still repetetive, but frankly, I'm not sure what the last half of your sentence means.

    In my mind the range isn't small enough. Modern dwarf duardin models come to about the same height as a Freeguild soldier, and the Fyreslayers are the tallest of the lot.

    I like the idea of Cities changing, I hope it happens more as the story progresses through various realms.

    It allows for interesting narratives to happen, keep things fresh and allow for new lists and unit options.

    Yep, though if they're going the way of Anvilgard/Har-Whatever, they might want to drop the 'of Sigmar' suffix going forward 😜

     

    (Pls Grungni take over Greywater Fastness, u were always my pal and I need more cannons 🙏🙏🙏)

  8. So, there's been a decent amount of CoS rumbling on TGA of late with the two new city allegiances in Broken Realms: Morathi about to drop.

    The CoS WhatsApp group is still very active, if anyone would like to get in on it, please send me a message, or post in this thread for an invite link. :)

    So anvilguard is lost and with it we loose too the mount traits doing more useless even umplayable models as black dragons,good way to sell the new box with the dragon games workshop.

     

    Also as city of sigmar player i get great bives having one of my alegiances being deleted.......i feel so safe to buy more models knowing that these models and rules gonna stay for a while and wont be deleted as were the 50% of dwarfs...........

     

    I told to my local store that i wanted the preorder of the new black dragon box,now i dont know if cancel it seeing this....

     

    So idoneths that were allready a top army even with 2.0 tome get mount traits and huge buffs to warscrolls but citys get useless new alegiance,no new warscroll for the worst unit of aos(black dragons),delete one of our alegiances(anvilguard) and also with this we loose our mount traits.

    HELLO, I'M MARIUS LEITDORF.  I WAS UNCEREMONIOUSLY KILLED OFF BY A NO-NAME ORC IN THE 6TH ED EMPIRE ARMY BOOK, AND DESPITE BEING 'DEAD' FOR THE FINAL 15 YEARS OF WFB'S EXISTANCE, REMAINED THE MOST POPULAR EMPIRE SPECIAL CHARACTER BY A COUNTRY MILE, STILL BEING USED IN GAMES, AND EVENTUALLY GETTING A WHOLE NEW MODEL. SEE ALSO MY MATE BROTHER CAPTAIN TYCHO, WHO HAD THE SAME THING HAPPEN TO HIM (ALBEIT AT THE  HANDS OF AN ORK WITH A 'K') IN 1998 AND IS STILL AVALIABLE TO USE IN THE LATEST BLOOD ANGELS CODEX. I'D THROW OUT MORE EXAMPLES OF THIS, AND EVEN EXPLAIN WHAT A 'HISTORICAL' ARMY IS, BUT I NEED TO GO ARGUE STRATEGY WITH MY HORSE SO GOODNIGHT

    Yep, my three Bolt Throwers still languishing (plus various heroes) - and what to do with medium Morathi?

    I'd say give them Stormcast crew and use them as particularly spiky Celestar Ballistas, but I'm not sure Morathi's gonna be keeping many Stormcast around... 😯

    Morathi in a CoS army, casting empowered endless spells is gonna be pretty tasty. Can we get a Teclis controlled city soon? 🤔😇

    In fairness Dark Elves survived the great purging rather well. DoK only split off two models from them whilst the rest remained in Cities of Sigmar; they are only fragmented by Gw's choice to keep them as such. A few leaders lost and the repeater bolt thrower; but by and large most of the old Dark Elf line is around - infantry; dragon; mage; cavalry etc... 

    Dang @Overread, are you me?!

  12. Broken Realms: Morathi's up for preorder in New Zeland, and it looks like people guessed right and Har Kuron's Anvilgard under Morathi -likely we're gonna see 1 in 4 Stormcast units swapped out for Daughters of Khaine? Should be nice for old school Dark Elf fans, though not sure how applicable 'of Sigmar' is anymore...

    - Two new sets of allegiance abilities for the Cities of Sigmar, representing the newly-annexed Anvilgard – now known as Har Kuron – and the shadowy domain of Misthåvn, each with their own abilities, artefacts, command traits, and more.

    atleast my Louen got a fitting ending there. Sadly Jerod never came back from the haven

    If getting impaled on a tree by a D-list Nurgle special character (who even managed to come back to life in the new setting, making your efforts kinda moot in the long run), while defending the capital city of your gunpowder adulating, moustache waxing ancestral enemies on the whim of a goddess your people worshipped for thousands of years, only for her to be revealed a couple of books later as a big sham who didn't even like you very much, after getting booted off the throne when actual not!King Arthur decided to rock up after you and your illegitimate kid set the country on fire is a fitting ending, you must have really, really hated the poor guy. 😜

    EDIT: Oh, one of battleplans is named Fall of Anvilgard. Not good...

    Fret not, GW is nothing but consistent - there was a chapter in the End Times: Nurgle called 'The Fall of Altdorf', that climaxed in Altdorf not being destroyed at all.

    ...only to get destroyed off screen by skaven a couple of books later. Yeah, you guys are screwed. 😬
