More or less my take away. There’s on item which might be useful on him, but I think I’d just double up on one of the other two.

Mortisan Soulreaper, eh?
Compared to his mates, I’m just not seeing him in a list? Am I missing something here? -
Guess that depends on too many in-game factors for a straight answer?
Is there an end of line you want to willingly draw in via casualties? Are you worried about the Harvester being charged and need to bubble wrap it?

*waves in NooB*
Hi folks.
So, Mortek Guard, eh? I’ve watched a few battle reports on YouTube, and so far have only seen people using Sword & Board.
Is this typically representative of how people play them?

https://aos-tactics.com/2017/02/21/zoning-area-denial/ This website has a lot of articles on the key elements of sigmar I’ve linked the zoning and denial one as really that’s the most important. Sigmar is hugely about model placement, screens and threat ranges.
Well this is good! Read some of it, as the rest probably needs a level of ‘on the board experience’.
Suffice to say the Pile In consideration of area denial has given me food for thought on Spears. Particularly with OSB, a suitably buffed unit of Mortek Pokey Bois could do very well....

100% that!
if you kerb stomp some by accident or design, feedback costs nowt!

If needs be, my still warm, bloodied, burst, twitching corpse, through the will of Nagash, will return and report!
Because it’s one thing to see a top list, and quite another to understand why it’s so rock!

To be honest, I’m mostly looking forward to the world class players beating seven shades of snot out of me, and hoping they’ve the time to walk me through not just what I did wrong, but what they did right.
See around 11 years ago, I worked for GW as a till monkey. And part of that was running intro games, and providing an opponent when plans fell through. So the subtle art of ‘kind of’ going easy, wuhgniyg outright throwing the game is a fine art I was once familiar with.
Because a butt kicking without constructive feedback is worthless!

How do?
So I’m pretty much a NooB at AoS. Played it a handful of times when it first came out, but due to real life, had an enforced hiatus from hobbying in general (three to four hour commutes are rubbish).
But I can now work from home, even when Nurgle isn’t having shenanigans, which means I can attend my local club without having to worry about being home particularly early.
And it’s to AoS I’ve returned. Got the latest rules, and a decent sized collection of Bonereapers I swear I’ll get painted in time.
What I’m looking for here is kind of a beginners guide, focussing on the non-obvious. I know the turn structure and how buff stacks work etc. But given my local club (Hydra club in Tunbridge Wells) has at least two genuinely world class players, I’m looking for a wider picture of what to look out for.
Ideally I want general game stuff, as at the moment my frame of reference is too small for army specific ‘wotcha and gotcha’ things. But hey, if you want to chip in with a ‘wotcha’ for specific armies or list builds, I’ll still read it, digest, and be thankful for your input
In case peeps want to weigh in with Ossiarch specific stuff? I’ve got all the characters, barring the Generic Horsey Lord, 60 Mortek Guard (40 built as sword and board as two units of 20), 15 Kavalos Horsey Dudes (going with spears, as cavalry without look wrong to me), 2 Harvesters (Bludgeons), 2 Crawlers, 6 Immortis Guard, 3 Necropolis Stalkers (another 3 on order), and the Endless Spells. I do intend to get the terrain piece, but finding one in stock is difficult right now!
Right. Over to you. Show me the mysteries of AoS!

How do?
A NooB to AoS, but been around GW games for nearly 31 years, having kicked off with Heroquest when I was very young, and you were even younger. Unless you’re older than me!
You may or may not recognise my screen name from DakkaDakka. And I’m also the head honcho and founder of the Loot Sharing Facebook group.
Getting into AoS with Ossiarchs, so be gentle with me. At least for a bit!

Assumption for new WH:Q Game ?
in Warhammer Quest

Well, seems BSF is coming to an end, release wise. And last weekend’s teaser previews suggest it’s going to tie into the wider 40k storyline.
If that’s correct, it could be a guide as to what we might expect in any follow up in the Mortal Realms.
What exactly that might be? Well, take your pic. Given the three Ages, I’d wager there are a lot of ruins and literal dungeons to be explored in the search for lost artefacts.
