    I am an absolute Glutton for Christmas. It's my favourite time of year and this will be the first with my now Wife. I am so stoked for it.

     

    And I am one of those still on the hunt for a Series X. Damn scalpers!! No CEX I will not pay you £800 for that console. 

    Yeah, it seems impossible to get next gen consoles. Computer parts ain't cheap either. I was lucky that there was graphic cards available to not extreme prices at October 2020.

    I think most of the world ain't back to pre-corona levels, and who knows, there might be more lockdowns coming up, but that won't stop Tyrion from showing up sooner or later!

  2. Why are people feeling like aos is dying? It felt like 40 k almost got no releases before the aos3 launch. At the same time we had new stuff all the time.

    Anyone have a clue if the white dwarf updates will come to FAQ updates, or you specifically have to buy those?

    Don't know how to tag at this forum, but I really like it and I love the spears!

     

    In October 2020 I got 5 Dawnriders from gw since the banner on the starter set broke when I cut it from the sprue(spruce?). To be fair, I wasn't done with much at that point, but it was first this weekend that I got the energy to start working on them. I know there are more of y'all that still have models to paint, but you might have burned yourself out on the Lumineth and especially have no desire to do the Dawnriders!?

     

    I cheated and made the most of the model in contrast wildwood color. Then I spent more time in layering the white instead of doing my best to do the trim and then clean up the white. This helped me a lot and would suggest that. I know he made the suggestion with iron hands steel? And skeleton horde contrast, but I felt that it was as awful as the normal book suggestion....

     

    Anyways, here is a picture of the results. Please ignore dust that the camera was good to point out on the model.

  4. I was on the fence between soulblight and the Slanesh box but decided to get the soulblight one since it's basically that box and then call it the day (unless the points increase/decrease a lot).

    Do anyone think the units in the dominion box or Lumineth sentinels will get point changes/nerfs?

  5. So I guess I'm a soulblight army owner now since I bought the battlebox.

     

    I'm planning on using all the contents + a necromancer (will use one of my cos wizards as a proxy). That will be 1000 points as of today. 

     

    Any suggestions from you on the best subfaction for this?

  6. I'm really tempted for the Slanesh book, but they seem to need daemons (thanks Slanesh group) to work, and I don't like the look of the deamons in that faction, or any of the factions to be honest....

    The Soulblight Gravelords seems nice, but it feels like way to many models to paint and its not even 1000 points! (maybe if i proxy one of my COS wizards as a necromancer it will be around 1000 points?)

     

    Edit: I seem to get 1000 points if i just add a necromancer. Perhaps this is a Christmas gift to me?

    I like playing as the badies. (without needing to relate directly to anything IRL as a regime or a historical period etc.) There is not a lot of gaming stuff about being the baddie and trying to win. 

    I play lumineth, they are the badies to a lot of people (we got sentinels, teclis and that fox that ive heard never dies).

    Will we see the end of save stacking in this update? Place your bets now! (We won't.)

    Can you explain what this is? I thought you could only do 1 ward save?

    I think the problem is for some people you have to state it. One of the reasons why pop bottle tops have “open by hand” on them. 

    My favorite thing when I lived in the US, they had a warning on a bag of peanuts "Warning, contain peanuts".

    Have anyone heard if GW will release the AOS app to the amazon android app store? Windows 11 will support that store and it would be neat to see your rules on a surface pro/windows tablet...

  8. How good is the boxes? I have most of lumineth. The Slanesh one would be interesting because of the lumineth vs slanesh thing, but how about bone reapers? Are they any good for casual play in aos 3? My brother have been interested in them, but have been put of because he heard they aren't that good in aos3.

     

    If i had space and money, I would be willing to get them all. 

     

    The 40K ones look neat too, but I haven't played 40k since early 2000s.

    One thing to watch out for is whether your High Sentinel has line of sight or not. If he does, then he cannot use his lantern, meaning you might have other models in the unit that cannot see and thus cannot shoot.

    Oh, that's a good point! Was a long time I've played, and I might have misused that rule. Thanks for sharing!

  10. Hello!

    I usually play with Lumineth that always seem to have line of sight with sentinels.

     

    My question is for other units. If one of your models in a unit see one model, can the whole unit shoot on that enemy unit? Or do all the models have to be able to see a/one model/miniature to be able to shoot? 

    I'm currently at work, and the AoS app doesn't seem to answer this question.

    I haven't played in a while, but I thought you only need one to see a model to shoot(and that all that shoot are in range).

     

    Thankful for replies!

    Newest Rumour Engine could be Tyranids? Or possibly new Sylvaneth bugs!?

    Maybe it's something on a space marine base? Something that's dead!

    Edit: like hollowhills said,maybe it's something from the sea?

    Wow Red harvest is going out for preorder next weeK

    This is how they should do it with a lot of things! No teasing for a year (Lumineth), but rather announce and then release. 

     

    Ok.. maybe one week before is a little bit short, but rather that than several months in advance and then delays.

    Also I think if the lumineth got a third Battletome next year the local lumineth players would probably tear their hair out. 3 books in 2 years is a bit nuts, unless the Lumineth are the new face of Order GA.

    Darn aelf marines.

    I wouldn't mind AoS 3rd edition book but yeah.... I already own two books, the digital edition and broken realms Teclis.... So I can wait!
