Hi all! I wrote a Getting Started in the Age of Sigmar page a while ago and recieved some very positive feedback. In an effort to keep lowering that barrier to entry and help new guys out, I've written an overview and review of each and every Start Collecting box. If you have opinions about teh boxes, hop on the blog and leave a comment. I'll update teh page right away! My site is ad free, I do this just because I love the community and want it t grow Thank you all for your support and happy wargaming Start Collecting Boxes Contents and Review

Thank you! It's been a productive weekend, already have 4 more videos shot!

So to kick off the new army I made a quick trade with a buddy looking to clear out some old Empire stuff. He played 8th ed. but just couldnt get into AoS so I was happy to trade him some other game items for this. Here's a pic and then I'll walk through what your looking at: 1 General on foot with hammer and pistol 20 Handgunners 20 Greatswords 30 Freeguild Guard I feel that it's a pretty darn good start since the handgunners and guard are Battleline units and the Greatswords are just absolute blenders in combat. What I really love about this army is the synergy between units. So many bonuses to hit (and sometimes to wound) make this an extremely deadly force. I can get those guns to hit on a 2+/2+ (not without some effort of course) and the fact that they have rend can ruin someone's day. The only unit I'm not excited about is the Guard, I just feel like they are incredibly basic. Sure, they can become good with the same buffs as anyone else; Im just not as amazed at them as the other units. As you can see in the picture, I opted to base them all on 32mm. Some local guys were telling me that 25mm would have been better but frankly Im not fond of that idea. I already have a bunch of spammy 25mm troops in my Death army, so im not looking for that. Truthfully, with the wide stance of the swordmen (Guard) and long barrels on the handgunner, I just think 32mm look better. Now that everyone is based I'll begin the painting assembly line. Im looking to go for a black and purple scheme which I think will make them stand out nicely. Now I looked up the points at my local store (The GHB isnt released to the public yet) and this comes in at 860 points. My goal is to get it to 1000 and start playing (Read: Winning) games with them. There are a few directions I could go here and I'm nt set on one or another: -drop 10 of the Greatswords (bringing me back down to 700 points) and add a tank -Add a few more Guard and try the Free Guild Regiment formation

I love it! I run a zombie focused horde and the Mortis Engine provides some much needed mortal wounds to the army. Zombies flood the board with a high nu,ber of normal attacks (WHich I call paper cuts) and I start the game by pointing the Mortis Engine at a target where mortal wounds would be best and let it fly like a missle.
