  1. I think it’s time to save the warscroll pdf’s for the green skins , etc for personal use when they go. The last army I converted were  my old orc to green skins. I have a devoted of Sigmar army as well. If it means losing them, so be it as I don’t play tourneys anymore so it largely lands in narrative play anyways and if the existing warscrolls are saved, it keeps them alive. A few months ago, I would have been devasted to even hear the rumours but the way they handled the moonclan etc, I have full confidence in the future army’s - whatever the new factions be. Time to start again with the new system. That will be stormcast for order and moonclan for destruction  and that’s good and plentiful enough work for my forseable future. 

    The moonclan sealed the deal completely with me and GW. I look forward to anything they come up with from this point.

    Well since this was revealed I've been looking at spider options (since we probably aren't getting a new spider kit) and honestly I think the old one can work if people are willing to put the effort in as I found this on google. It seems with a hobby knife, careful clipping & some greenstuff the current models can look quite good. Pair them with the new riders for the Squig Knights and I think we have some really cool options to play with.

    I had used a d&d  version for my big boss. It was only $6 Canadian for it so I couldn’t pass it up. Still had to alter the legs to fit an old wolf rider. 

    I love these conversions 👆img_2075.jpg

  3. I have a full night goblin army still based for WHFB.  I think I may need to have them come over to AoS. I did up any army on azyr with them combined with my new fledgling spider fang and already have 2500 points. This worries me a bit as it doesn’t include fanatics , troggoths or gargants! Maybe the points will be changed a bit because I want them all lol. 

  4. Had a great 1st half of the year. Had a 40k game. Orks vs guard

    Converted and made a Desciples of Sigmar army

    Converted / finished an Orruk army

    And the beginnings of the 1st matoreon company made up of ‘extra’ units

    Then the house, hobby room and all came to an end. 

    2019 - build a new hobby room in the new location hopefully by Febuary. finish the 1st matoreon. Build a stormcast army. Bought my first model. Lord Relictor - cause I love the fluff. 

    Keep optimistic!!!!

    Scuttlings warscroll is still on the GW website archive (find via google) but dont think they ever had points for matched play, so youd have to use them as normal grots, which come in 20 model units, so run 2x20 or one 40 model unit.

    Awesome! I dredged eBay for 40 of them. Will use as grots w/bows as some of them have bows, single and double slittas. 

  6. I think they were mentioned earlier in the thread but I have hopes the scuttlings from silver tower become Battleline for the spiderfangs. I am crazy for this faction and have put together 4 bosses on giant spiders, 4 x 5 spider riders and 4 x 10 scuttling  squads as a base. A-roks when I can afford them. 

    I emailed GW about bringing them into the fold but not much came from that. Their warscroll for the scuttlings doesn’t even show up on Azyr. 

    I just searched GW Canada and I can’t even find the silver tower game anymore. The only place were the warscroll was available. 

    Hopefully im doing something wrong in my search but I could wel be out of date.

    Khorne has blessed my warshrine with a many armed blood letter, fire and incense.

    Breathtaking! In the old fantasy system I was never a chaos fan but the AoS units are magnificent. What a centrepiece.

  9. The May painting contract as well. Only have 20 spiderfangs, 10 being converted to AoS.  

    May add more to the contract but I may take it easier this month ?

    Will also be working on a much better base than my dreary old drabness.

    @Artobans Ghost: I love to brute dark metal and personally really like the tone in tone of all the metal parts as a concept (like in general, my Word bearers look like grey-black statues). I am unsure about the wood though, it pops – a lot.

    No worries Oko. Love the suggestions. I will wash the wood down with nuln oil then Agrax earthshade and see what happens. There is quite a contrast

    Yeah, I like it so far, the only thing that I'd like them to add is a blank model that you can colour each section of and try out different colour combinations next to each other. I'm not sure if this would mean that they would have to paint a spacemarine for example with every colour scheme they list, so you could select the different sections, but It'd be a great feature.

    Agreed!? That would be a great idea. Even a generic thing that you could colour by number so to speak. 

  12. I don't have a bretonnian army but I think this is brilliant. The fact the TK is coming out is great! I always loved the TK and was kinda planning one. This may allow that to happen.  Although I have nothing to kick in, I completely support this. What it may mean for future armies of the realm also lies open whether it's Tillian or maybe Cathay, estallian or such. Great idea!
