[The Rumour Thread]

Maybe just emphasis that all chronicles and maps are deeply flawed and partial rather than definitive? How I long for the wildly biased superbly flavourful in universe narrations of 6th Ed!

[Misthavn wish list / guesses / discussion]

I have loved the sound of Misthavn, floating boating Ulgu City of Scoundrels, since Soulbound came out and am thrilled to hear it will be playable as of Broken Realms, apparently coming under attack by Idoneth for some reason.

What do people reckon about it / want for it?

[The Rumour Thread]

One trick doth not a characterful fun effective city make

EDIT: to be clear I love both Anvilgard and Misthavn background and would love both to continue to be playable, the more Tortugas the merrier

[The Rumour Thread]

It would be a bit cheap if Misthavn rules replaced a destroyed Anvilgard, though at least they might play more effectively...

[The Rumour Thread]

Well we don’t know if the sorceress is in with Morathi, right?

[The Rumour Thread]

Morathi and Mannfred vs Nagash and Neferata?!

[AoS 2 - Daughters of Khaine Discussion]

It is great how Morathi is by far the most dynamic character in Mortal Realms!

Honestly this thread doesn't seem to serve a purpose beyond one side whining about things they dont like and why others are wrong to, I don't see how threads like these are productive.

I dunno! Feel this thread has brought out quite interesting thoughts on the Loomies on both sides

[The Rumour Thread]

I like that idea a lot! Reminds me of how Jon Irenicus turned his ‘prison’ Spellhold into a villain fortress lair in Baldur’s Gate II

And I think Slaaneshis are (even) more interesting with their god locked up

but having said that I still feel gloomily certain big S is getting out relatively soon

[The Lumienth waste design space]

Huge points for noticing Zoroastrian High Elves - I am one (a Z not an HE) and it had only semi occurred to me...

[The Rumour Thread]

Sharkeys! DUH DUH DUH DUH

[Lumineth Assemble! (photos & lore)]

Loved that but was astonished when Haset’s Ulgu twin didn’t turn out to be Hashut!

is the name similarity a coincidence, or do you plan to include a connection to / enmity with Hashut eventually?

[AoS 2 - Living City Discussion]

Love Mousillon too!

EDIT: Eying Lord Arcanum on winds aetheric Gryph-Charger and Knight-Questor for Stormcast support

16 ?  

What are the allies giving you?

Well I currently have 16 models with sufficiently huge swords to pass! Do you reckon should be more or fewer?

Blood Knights...well I love my models (mostly Brets w a Dogs of War merc general) and they’re much better heavy cav than Gryphs or Drakes...kinda thought they were scariest thing in army? Friendly opponents so shouldn’t present rules trouble

[AoS 2 - Living City Discussion]

Have been thinking of this list as basics for Hallowheart but wondering if Living City might suit better...opinions?

Nomad Prince as general

Sorceress on Dragon

Sorceress on foot possibly x 2 if I can wangle it

Fleetmaster

Assassin

White Battlemage on Luminark

(Heroes are very negotiable. I gather Hurricana (?) are more popular than Luminarks but I am going to fight in a campaign in Hysh so this seems more fun)

10 Darkshards

10 Corsairs w handbows

20 Sisters of the Watch x 2

40 Corsairs w blades

5 Sisters of the Thorn x 2

10 Shadow Warriors

10 Executioners

16 Wildwood Rangers

10 tree revenants

Couple of Stormcasty things or maybe a Scourgerunner?

6 Blood Knight Mercs conceivably inc a vamp lord

 

[Cities models]

I’ll try and put up some pix ASAP...not much currently painted. List in more recent forms on my Ranald thread and the Hallowheart thread!

[Anvilguard plus Bundo?]

You need 15 to get the bonus to hit. So at 30 they are double the threshold. That being said I am leaning towards the  knight Incantor version a bit more, as the auto dispell scroll is clutch.

Ah yes but if 40 of them they are cheaper?

not of course cheaper than 30, but cheaper in general for what they are

[Anvilguard plus Bundo?]

Aren't the blade guys more awesome if they're a horde of 40?

[Age of Sigmar RPG]

Wow that Scion flamberge drool

[Metawatch article highlighting the total lack of balance]

Back in Fantasy Chaos was unstoppably, ridiculously obviously the most powerful. It didn’t stop anyone I knew enjoying the game because the point was the grimly dramatic story and the beaut models, not endless formulaic rules minutiae...

[AoS 2 - Daughters of Khaine Discussion]

So all D o K males that we know about are still slaves or warlocks

[Anvilguard plus Bundo?]

This looks extremely cool. But yes give one of them fleet masters a spooky girlfriend?!

[The Rumour Thread]

I agree the aesthetic would ideally need to be an advance on ‘High Elves 2.0’. Far Eastern influences so far might indicate Ronin / Samurai perhaps, somewhat as attempted by LOTR films (unless that’s its own problem). I wonder whether a sort of Moorcock - Dark Elves but more or less good style might work given Tyrion’s complex psyche and record. Like, bright and shiny, but merciless, sharp, and scary. Feanorian

EDIT: Kind of that 'I emit so much light my enemies die by me just existing and frowning at them but I also have really questionable / terrible judgment and morality' vibe please

[The Rumour Thread]

I prefer diversity of background to diversity of rules. Eg Loads of factions used to have cool knights and that was fine!

I’d love some straightforward sword and lance elves with good stories / character / moral ambiguity 

[The Rumour Thread]

Wd anyone else be happy if Tyrion aelves were fairly normal elves with amazing swordsmanship, knighthood and attitude?

Essentially an army of combat heroes
