    As long as they don’t completely rebuild the app (and therefore break it), if they copied 40K i might not be too annoyed about it 

    in 40K, they scrapped digital but instead the physical book comes with a code to unlock all the rules content in the app, unfortunately the app is very broken and has incorrect rules, missing information, and the calculator for list building makes up random numbers 😂 they also increased the price of the physical books :/

    But with one HUGE difference- no fluff or unit descriptions or any of that.  To me that is most of the point of buying the books in the first place.

    Yes very. It completely made up for the failure that is the Realm lords novel. Can only recommend it.

    So here is my unpopular opinion, I really liked the Realmlords novel!  I am usually pretty harsh on the bad AoS novels but for some reason I just enjoyed it.  I have no excuses to offer!

    I imagine it could possibly sting fyreslayers as they do tend to like a lot of Hearthguard. To be honest, it will also sting them if they lose battalions - they could be in for a bit of a bumpy ride.

    Only if that rumor about all Duardin being rolled into one book isn’t true…….

    That's the same rumour from earlier which Whitefang said was fake but not fake which is rather frustrating. I am almost at the point that I hope I hate the new destruction faction. If the rumours of Shadow Aelves and new Cities kits are true, I'm going to be very poor indeed. 

    Yeah somehow I missed all these rumors.....I know this has been said 10000000000x on these forums but jeez new Cities kits would be so so cool.

    I also do really like the new Stormcast.  And hobgoblins would be great.  My poor poor wallet....

    One thing I am sad about is that Josh Reynolds will not have a hand in the new fluff.  I was really enjoying his take on Stormcast and where they were going/what was happening to them.  I do seriously hope that the darker side continues to be expanded on, ala Celestial Vindicators or Knights Excelsior.

    elves players just think they are center of the world really

    having the nerves to say that BR was all about them not realizing how bad of an idea it was in the context of the overall player base

    I do love elves.  And I do think I am the center of the world.  AND I do not realize how bad BR Teclis was in the context of the overall player base (scientifically determined I am sure).  So looks like you hit the nail right on the head!

    I believe that bone flute is Flesh-Eaters, possibly a Cursed City expansion 

    I thought the newest drama was that Cursed City was not making an appearance on shelves again? If that is true, then I doubt expansions are in the  future.

    A nudge at @Nasrod (as well as anybody else thinking of doing anything similar). I know what you said was part in jest but please remember that a lot of people in this topic just want to talk about one of their favourite armies. They don’t really want to see comments about their army being negative and I think how the world is still, it’s nice to have a sanctuary to go to.

    Also I’ve been playing GW games for over 25 years and I’m pretty such things will work themselves out. With Broken Realm books, there’s a feel of new edition coming, so I wouldn’t be surprised to see other armies being similar when they get done or updated. 

    At this point I am just enjoying the absurdity of the trolls.

    According to more than a few (all of whom should know better) members of this forum and the internet writ large, the LRL book has managed to single handedly suck the fun from their chosen hobby.  

    The really interesting this is that it appears this forum is filled with lawbreakers who have been out in violation of the various global curfews and shutdowns, but only to visit their local game stores (open for in-person gaming somehow) where the eeeeeevil LRL players (again, lawbreakers) have been waiting at the tables to spread the gospel of NPE.  This is the only way I see that so many people have the experience against LRL,  because of course they are not just posting without actual evidence.  That could never happen.

    There’s a tournament coming up in about a months time that I’m considering going to just for fun (haven’t been to one in a while, but I used to attend most of our local ones just for fun/get to play more games). I have about 3 weeks to buy more stuff but this is what I’ve got in the last month I’ve been playing Lumineth: Teclis, Eltharion, Avalenor, Myari Lightcaller, Myaris Purifiers, 1x5 Stoneguard, endless spells.

    ‘current list I’m thinking about, since it’s the easiest to complete in time, is this:

    Allegiance: Lumineth Realm Lords
    - Great Nation: Ymetrica
    Mortal Realm: Hysh

    Leaders
    Archmage Teclis and Celennar, Spirit of Hysh (660)
    - General
    Avalenor, the Stoneheart King (360)

    Battleline
    5 x Alarith Stoneguard (100)
    - Stone Mallets
    5 x Alarith Stoneguard (100)
    - Diamondpick Hammers
    5 x Alarith Stoneguard (100)
    - Diamondpick Hammers

    Behemoths
    Alarith Spirit of the Mountain (340)
    Alarith Spirit of the Mountain (340)

    Total: 2000 / 2000
    Extra Command Points: 0
    Allies: 0 / 400
    Wounds: 84

    Tell me how bad it is 😂

    I don't care how bad it is, I am just impressed you have three battle cows!

    Speaking of the ribbons, do you think it is possible to leave off some of them and still retain stability?  When I look at the picture I feel like they get in the way of seeing the actual Fox Spirit and I find that slightly frustrating.

    Unfortunately not. The ribbons are the only connection points, and if you try to remove some it would require a pretty significant modeling putty commitment to make it look fine. 
     

    The pictures are a bit not representative of how it looks in person.  I haven’t painted it yet obviously but I think the ribbons and wind will not overwhelm the rest of the model. It is really a good sculpt.

    Thanks for the warning. I haven't bought him yet as I have vouchers for my FLGS waiting from Christmas and want to wait til they're open again - April 12th is looking likely, so not long.  

    Have you assembled it completely, or in sections for painting?

    I assembled it completely, but I usually do with the exception of shields on cav models (for the most part).

    The model is very wide open for painting even assembled, which is probably what makes it so frosty to put together.  You have a bunch of the wind and ribbon parts that you need to scope out before and find good places to apply pressure without bending other things.  I think it will be much easier when I do the second one, but it is definitely a model that you have to think about a lot before and during the process.
