  1. Welp... big news !!.....

    Dragons are back?!?  YAY. :D  and they are with the ... Stormcast?  :/ whaaaa?  At least the ones they have previewed.  I was really hoping that the LRL would get some of the love as well, but I guess we have too many monsters already?  

    Sigh.....  the models do look amazing tho.  Might have to add to the pile of shame and build one.

    Very nice looking models in this chat :)

    I‘ll be painting a small contingent for Settler‘s Gain soon (Lyrior or Lord Regent and 5-10 dawnriders) plus s Converter Black Dragon ridden by whichever Model version won‘t be used by the Lord Regent Kit (I‘ll mix Dark aelves, Lumineth and Freeguild with some mages)

    Ohhhh. That sounds great!  That model always catches my eye, and tempts me for a conversion.... 
     Pics or it doesn’t exist!  😉

  3. @ThalmorRepresentative I'd prob go blue as well... to connect it all together.  Maybe a darker blue than the cloak?  OR you could do a Blue Wash/Contrast (with some Contrast medium in there) to make the recess/design blue and make the red more purple?  That is if you want it blue/red/purple....?  Looking good tho!

    And also sharing some WIP's on my Bladelords...  Man, I really dig these models!  They might not be "competitive" but they'll be on the table for sure in my army. 

    Using the Alt Ymetrica scheme, along with some ideas from the box.  And added a kit bash head to the Seneschal (maybe the Red hair is too much?).  I'm still working on skin smoothness.  But does it look like he's got a 5oclock shadow?  :P  And ned to darken his eyes a bit more (or try to paint them... ugh.  still hate doing eyes.)

     And I've included a pic of how I'm painting/sub assembling them for fun. :D

  4. Decided to start some Bladelords, what with how cool they looked in @ThalmorRepresentative's post .  And I have to say, the photos don't lie.  They look damn cool... Well, the Seneschal does at least, which is where I'm starting.  But with a possible conversion.  :P

    Using a Blood Bowl Wood Elf head, since it's hair is swirling in the right direction.  I feel it's tiny wee bit big, but the sculpt is great!  Then which pose?!  

    TWO SWORDS:

    ONE SWORD:

    I'm leaning Two swords, since his face is yelling like he's about to attack, and this stance is a tad more aggressive.  The One sword pose is more focused and "contemplative"?

    Well, glanced through the conversation about Bladelords. At the very least, they can definitely provide some quality padding between Mages and hero snipers. Even if I never include them till points adjustments, or the next tome (hopefully not), I'm going to acquire and paint me 20 minimal lol 😅.

    Dude!!!  Thanks for the pics. They do look sweet.  The alt poses rock. Considering getting some other heads from Eternal Guard for one set. ‘Cause why not.... I’m getting 10, and I’m prob gonna use them all the time for cool factor. And guarding my wizards. 
    How do they look painting access wise? Would you do any sub-assemblies?

    Guys now after all the models are revealed, what would be a good 1000 points competitive list to start of with? Which heroes would be worth?

    I was playing around with a 1k list but I’ve got 130pts to spend.

    Heroes 

    - Eltharion

    Battleline 

    - 10x Wardens

    - 10x Wardens

    - 20x Sentinels

    - 5x Dawnriders

    I was considering chucking in 5 bladelords for lolz but they don’t have anyone to protect so I’m not sure. 

    Well, this list is pretty much what I've been playing.  It's fun, not too "complex" (although I totally second the AOS reminders app/site to help out). I only have 10 sentinel, so I toss in my Cathalar, and sometime the Rune of Pet.  Of course, this was before the MASSIVE release.... so maybe a Balista or one of the three Scinari (I like the Cathallar's Absorb Despair ability...)?

    Could you possibly also show pics of the alt poses for the ballista too if it’s not too much of a pain? I need my fix!

    Always glad to share the wealth...

    looks like the alternate builds are:

    for the ballista  person either holding the Ballista with both hands or having a bird in one hand.

    for the guard it’s either spear with both hands, or one head in spirit and pointing at the target

    nothing crazy but I think fun flexibility

  8. thx for the heads up on Severith @Austin  Big Boy Pants at the ready. :)

    And opening up some boxes to peruse the instructions and so far there are a few cool alt builds. The Ballista has some, and the bladelords have four for the Seneschal. Which I find very cool!!  W or w/I the helmet.... one or two blades.... different fee/leg stance.

    im thing of combining 6a and 6b if it’ll let me. 

    I did lol a bit when I saw this :

    where are the HEADS AND ARMS!?!  The have an interesting build process.

    image.jpg.54c0a6a8a888cb72dfbecd2c3788d03e.jpg

     The Flag is the last piece... so maybe you can decide  not to use them?  And looks like if you want to kitbash their heads in. ;) you can. I might use the other head I have for the Senechal.

  9. @jeanfluflu That is a really nice paint scheme!  And while I don't mind the Roo's, your Cho...co... Angry Ostrich style could be fun (reminds me of the old video game Joust?)

     

    And YAY!!  I've finally finished one of my Sentinel units.  Bit of a slog, and only a few (well, more than a few...) broken strings and arrows, or mis-fits.  But all is well now that they are done!

    Now.. what to paint next?  My other Wardens? My  Hammer Bros?  Teclis!?!  .... nah....  Or take a break and do some SW:Legion to get ready for the next wave....

  10. Well, I've found some listings/images of the collected generic CA's, and will try to work them into cards.... but so far so good!!  

    Using the Ultimate Guard card pages I have lying around (eventually I'll switch to the compact version for both Legion and AoS), and playing around with Preview (a basic PDF editor on the Mac) I've managed to use the AoS Shorts cards and print them into the right size!!!  These are just B&W plain paper tests, but with a thicker card stock and some color, this might look awesome....A few war scrolls are bigger/"two pages" (The Twins, Lyrior, Sevirith, Dawnriders, LoE, Sentinels, Wardens... yikes)...But the Sentinels turned out OK.

    Now I can remember the Lightning Reactions! Or Absorb Despair, or Shining Company..!

    And hopefully not lose because I keep forgetting things...LOL...:S

    AoShorts made beautiful cards for the first Battletome: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1zgTfhnrwHDOpDXxBJkPjb6p4SkPvG7ki/view

    They likely will update them at some point, but probably takes a while. The Lumineth army box also includes ability cards for everything in the first Battletome. 

    Dude these are awesome!  Thanks!  I have the ones from the Army Box.  These might be easier to organize/use... and if I can print them small enough, fit in the sleeves!  Now.... anyone have "cards" for all the generic command abilities?

  12. Not sure if this has been asked before... but is there any one who has made Cards with the Command Abilities?  Maybe similar to the cards that came in the Ltd Intro box?  I am hoping to get a wee bit more organized, and maybe remember all these dang spells, CA's, etc.  AoS reminders as an App is really great, but sometimes a card in front of me is better.  Kind of like what X-Wing and Legion do. I've included a pic of my Legion cards to give y'all an idea of what I'm hoping to find...... I'd be willing to print them myself of course...

    The rune... kind of? If you get it off, it can be insane. But it's CV 8. Even with being Zaitrec for the bonuses and using their aetherquartz, if it fails then the runes are kind of wasted 70 points.

    I have really enjoyed the Rune of Pet.  It's been cast in both my games (I play Zaitrec so the bonus' help), and man.... it's a beast.  Took out some big heroes, can't remember which but they had been hit by Sentinels, then the Rune finished it off...  Since it goes off at the start AND end of each movement phase, I dig it!!

    Now, question in regards to another Endless Spell:  Prismatic Wall.  Might be a silly one, but can you move through it?  Or does it become like a piece of scenery and you have to avoid/jump/fly over it?

    I'm looking for some help.  Can anyone direct me to a YouTube channel for a review of the Battletome that doesn't have any spoilers for the Broken Realms: Teclis storyline?  I'm trying to avoid them so I can read it fresh when I get it.  Thanks!

    Also, some one posted a Sprews and Brews video review of the Battletome.

    So how much has everyone spent today?

    Hahaha.... well, not much for me yet. My FLGS doesn’t do preorders due to the crappy allocation issues they’ve had. But I ordered three: bladelords, windchargers, and a ballista via GW.  I’m asking my FLGS to get them (always try to buy there first) but we shall see. 
     

    Still conflicted on which book to get. :/ do I get the new one which has everything in it, or get Teclis which has the cool story stuff in it and carry two books.... although I’ve been printing out the warscrolls to make life easier...

    OH!!  Speaking of, have any of y’all made/found/printed a system to organize all the scrolls/stuff?  I use AoS reminder, but having played X-Wing and Legion, I really like how all the “data cards” fit into a card sleeve page in my binder, making it easy to carry and use.   Thoughts?

    A super fluffy, 2 temple list I'm looking to build towards:

    Windmage
    2x5 Windchargers
    Spirit of the Wind

    Stonemage
    1x10 Stoneguard
    Spirit of the Mountain

    Lord Regent
    2x10 Wardens
    2x10 Sentinels

    1990pts

    So there's a Hurakan, Alarith, and Vanari "detachment", no named characters so all "your guys", lots of bodies, and seems really fun to play. Thinking Syar as a generic nation that benefits all groups.

    Ok!!  I so want to do this as well.  A slice of each temple so that maybe my opponent will be kept off balance?  And so I can play with all the toys!!  But them named characters.... I might need my LoE. And bladelords....
