This was very useful information! I wouldn't have thought the Demigryphs or the Hurricanum would have a high chance of being removed, so they've moved up the queue in my buy list as a result. Thank you!

Hello everyone! I fell away from the WHFB hobby just before end-times hit, and now that AoS seems to be in a pretty good place I'm excited to get back into wargaming. My main army back in the day was Tomb Kings, but I built pretty sizeable Dark Elf and Skaven forces as well. Sadly the Tomb Kings seem to be well and truly dead this time, unless I want to totally rebrand into Ossiarch Bone Reapers, and they're just not quite my style. I always regretted not trying out Empire, so I'm thinking Cities of Sigmar may be a good place to start in AoS, along with my trusty (who am I kidding they can't be trusted all in ANY sense of the word) Skaven, Anyway, just happy to be here.

I fell away from WHFB just before End Times started, and now that AoS is starting to get really good I'm excited to get back into it. I always regretted not starting an Empire army back in the day, and I have an abundance of Dark Elf models with some random High Elf and Wood Elf stuff, so now seems like the perfect time to lean hard into Cities of Sigmar, staring with my aelves and adding on some empire or even dwarven stuff. Here's what I already own. What CoS units are the first things I should pick up to fill in any deficiencies or missing roles? I'd like to focus on Freeguild / Ironweld/ Collegiate Arcane / other old "Empire" stuff if I can. Dark Elves 1 Black Dragon with swappable characters (Dreadlord/Sorceress) 1 Black Ark Fleetmaster 3 Supreme/Sorceresses on foot 2 Assassins Many* Dreadspears Many* Darkshards 16 Corsairs\ 5 Dark Riders 10-12 Drakespawn Knights Many* Black Guard ~15 Executioners 5 Shades (Counts-as for Shadow Warriors?) 2 War Hydras High Elves: 2 High Elf Princes on Griffons (Counts-as for Freeguild General on Griffon?) 2 High Elf Mages (Battle Wizards?) Many* High Elf Archers (Counts-as for Sisters of the Watch?) 20 Lothern Sea Guard (Count-as for Sisters of the Watch? More corsairs?) 20 Sword Masters (Counts-as for Wildwood Rangers? Freeguild Greatswords?) ~20 Phoenix Guard 10 Ellyrian Reavers (Counts-as for Sisters of the Thorn? More Dark Riders?) 5-10 Dragon Princes (Count-as Wild Riders? More Drakespawn Knights?) Wood Elves: I think I may also have 5-10 Wild Riders lying around somewhere. *Many = At least enough for 1 large unit or 2 small units in WHFB, probably enough to field 2 or maybe even 3 units in AoS. Other DE models I have that probably have no use in CoS: 3 Masters/Dreadlords on foot, 1 Master/Dreadlord on Cold One, 1 BSB on foot, 1 BSB on Cold One, 1 Supreme/Sorceress on Cold One, 2 Repeater Bold Throwers, A bunch of Khainite stuff that's part of the Daughters of Khaine faction now.
