    Good to know Gyrocopters are in. I know the assumption was they would be, especially with Irondrakes being shown, but their conspicuous absence from any Dwarf photographs thus far had left that lingering question - what with them being relatively 'modern' designs in-universe.

     

    Good news! So are irondrakes in? Because I thought of assembly as ironbreakers justo un case no irondrakes in TOW

    yes,the worst army rigth now and get the worst army of renown,make sense.

     

    copy/paste of firsts reviewers;

     

    "I want to be very clear: this is not a good army to take. You’re not getting some sort of new meta Fyreslayer build out of this. It’s a different way to play with the army and if your main thing is playing matched play or anything even nearing competitive gaming then you won’t be using this."

    Why bother wasting ink in such garbage? I have a dozen of armies between sigmar and 40k but I never get that feeling of a faction being that forgotten. Starting with the absurd points increase in this general handbook

    Loving the colors/atmosphere… shouldn‘t come as a surprise from a Tzeentch player but I love the dark, yet really colorful scheme you got going. Is the gloss making it pop so nicely or are your colors so intense? Is it contrast/inks over a normal basecoat or just wetblending? Sorry for the interrogation, just trying to get some ideas as I want my daemons to pop despite  the darker mood. 😇

    Yes, gloss has a lot of Wright in the final colors. But I have started with red Violet and highlighted with Pink. In "scales" just volupus Pink over a layer of light grey. In zones of OSL Ive darkened the área with turquoise. Hope it helps and feel free to ask

    fyreslayers as the worst army(ironjawz is a faction inside of big wag that is top) but gw wont buff them for sure as happened before with excuses,fyreslayers are bad  but we gonna wait to see how the new unit(useless) and new dawnbringer rules(useless also) gonna help them.

     

    then next metawatch again show them at botton,but now again zero buffs because a new edition is coming,lets wait to see before make changes etc etc

    And they only got points Up... in a season that you need mobility and Magic. Idk whats the logic behind that

    Fyreslayers development: speculation and suggestions

    Am I the only one who doesn't want them changed that much? I love them as they are. I mean their whole appeal to me is they are really raw and primal (hence being naked). They are a bunch of naked dwarf foot soldiers. They are a big orange naked mass, that's their whole identity and their whole look on the battlefield. To me they shouldn't have cavalry or clothes or flashy units because if they did then they wouldn't really be Fyreslayers anymore. I love them all being naked, it makes them feel like a clan. Similarly them being slow is a huge part of their identity, once you start giving them cavalry that takes away from it somewhat. The only cavalry I'd really like is if it was something slow and lumbering like a fire turtle/tortoise or something.

    To me they don't need fixing and I think of that saying ''don't try to fix something that isn't broken''. Less is sometimes more.

    Them all being naked gives them a cohesive look. If they suddenly got a unit with armour it would stand out in a bad way imo, it would be like ''why are all the heroes naked but that one unit isn't?''. It makes them look like a tribe with them all being naked, I love it.

    I see people criticise Fyreslayers quite alot too but part of me feels like it's in part because of an almost band wagon effect, like they've become the punching bag. If Fyreslayers suddenly vanished overnight then a new faction would become the one lots of people slate There's always gonna be one faction everyone ****s on as that is human nature and it happens to be Fyreslayers. Also beauty is in the eye of the beholder, not everyone is going to like them and we shouldn't alter them in a vain attempt to change that, I don't particularly like stormcast myself. 

    I like the fire golem suggestion, I think that could fit without altering their overall vibe too much, they couldgive it a similar aesthetic to the battleforge so that it fits.

    I just love them as they are and don't want them radically changed. I think I'm scared of them changing them in a way that would make me not love them anymore. For me they are slow naked firey crazy fighters and adding certain units might take away from that.

    I mean you're suggesting in the first post (apologies if I have misunderstood) maybe losing the whole fire thing or having it take a back seat and just be a minor thing like a subfaction. That would absolutely ruin them for me. I love fire, I started collecting them because of all the lava, i want more fire units not less! That to me would be like removing the disease aesthetic from nurgle units. I'm already invested emotionally in Fyreslayers as a concept, as a naked clan of dwarfs who live in volcanoes and drink lava, as well as having invested alot of money into them, I don't want their concept just thrown out the window, I would feel robbed and cheated.,

    I 10000% agree with you. I want them to remain as a horde of naked fiery dwarfs. I have 130+ of them, but instead of an armored infantry unit It Will be glad to have some kind of artillery piece, probably operated by priests.

    A toned down gotrek but with the fyreslayer keyword Will be fine to have
