  1. The first model in my AoS28 warband - a Wild Rider from the Black Sloth Hell: a drowned forest centered around a Realmgate to Shyish, the Realm of Death. The Aelves that live there think they are caught in a purgatory from Aelven folklore - a place where speed and grace and vitality are drained away. But the truth is more sinister than that. With the gates of Azyr opening, emissaries have been arriving at the outskirts of the Aelven realm looking for allies. It is not yet clear what side, if any, the Aelves will take. There is also now an AoS28 Facebook group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/AoS28/
  2. Some great figures but remember the other goal is to get you thinking about background and story. Think of it like putting together a RPG group for Dungeons & Dragons. The Nine Realms are huge and you can claim any part as your own: invent a city or a guild or a family. It's not just a nameless Stormcast, he's an individual with a reason for having beat-up armour and hanging around with Orruks.
  3. Not if you don't want to. Your warband could consist of models from all Grand Alliances and factions. If you use the Hinterlands rules there is some leeway allowed for this in the AoS28 expansion. If you don't use rules then do whatever is cool. Personally I like the idea of a 'friendly' Orruk working as muscle for a human witch hunter.
  4. The suggested rules - Hinterlands - are really flexible. But AoS28 is mainly about the aesthetic and the ideas, rules are entirely secondary. And personally I have no issue with non-GW parts, I've used a few myself in my warband. Yeah this stuff looks really cool. Do you have a blog anywhere with backgrounds or stories? Looks like you have a whole thing going on.
  5. You don't have to convert, but in my opinion it's a pretty easy skill these days - you don't have to do anything fancy, a simple headswap can make a huge difference. Like those Sylvaneth Spite Revenants for example - they have really cool heads that could easily be stuck on a Stormcast body to make some sort of Vampire Stormcast. Takes no skill, just an eye for bits and some imagination for a back story.
  6. Hello everyone. So I think this is going to be pretty cool. I've been involved with Inq28 for a long time, and my favourite part of White Dwarf every month is the Blanchitsu section. But I'm also hugely interested in the Age of Sigmar and I think there is a lot of potential in the setting for introducing some of what makes Inq28 so much fun: the conversions, the stories, the shades of grey and the grimdark. I know some of you are doing this sort of thing already, but for those of you looking for an excuse to get started with warbands and alternative takes on the Nine Realms then hopefully this is the place for you.
