Stage one of painting up my Gargant as a Frost Giant, the skin I’m happy with the colouring now and will start adding texture and possibly tattoo

Ofcourse, I'd love to see all Megagargants here.

WIP Mega Gargant 2, a Shyshian Blooddrinker, he’s got a bone to pick with Ossiarchs hunting him for his bones, so he spends his days smashing through tithe shrines and stealing corpses to rob them their prize. (banner and corpse cart pending)

Since its the Sons of Behemat release day, and given the size and immensity of the kit I thought it'd be nice to have a collective thread for all Mega Gargants made to share hints, tips, ideas and feedback. So to get the ball rolling here is my Thieves Bazaar themed Gatebreaker General!

Upto 9 of my Clan Carrion Cutthroats painted now.

Been working on a custom Gargant maker in the vein of the Anvil of Apothesis but for mega gargants for those seeking more variety in builds for narrative play, feedback always welcome:

This is the list I’m intending to run, there has been some debate as to whether the Aqshy artefact for exploding 6s could be of use but it’s something I’ll work out in testing

Writing some fun, unofficial, narrative battalions to fill the void in the book

Starting on a new, more vibrant and colourful army having had to sell off the Midnight City, this time focusing on Clan Carrion skaven running a neutral bazaar selling stolen antiquities, secrets, mercenaries and thieves from within the ruins of the Lumineth citadel destroyed in their civil war. This will be another conversion centric project.

Pretty snazzy, I cant imagine it'll sway anyone who didnt already want a Mega gargant but free stuff is nice

I believe this is a solved rumour engine now, sorry for those hoping for beastclaws

I've not come across a template as such, largely you can get away with a decent backdrop and 2 or 3 text boxes a page on Pages or Publisher. Gw have their own warscroll template on the community site for Anvil of Apothesis for when you want to write up unit warscrolls etc.

AoS doesnt need the Core Mechanic, mostly because most of the specifically AoS armies are either niche to the point where core is irrelevant (a dozen or less warscrolls) or the command abilities in those armies are targetted. Core works in 40k because all their hero buffs are always on auras, Command abilities in AOS are by and large costed and targetted so dont need further limitation. The only armies it would really impact would be Stormcast (remember the last time they were considered good?) Cities (whose command abilities are so specific already it'd make no difference) and Mortal Chaos (who just run marauders anyway) so it would punish armies that dont need punishing, and see no use in the competitive armies.

Conversely The Whispered Word is the only part that gives me cause for concern, mostly I'm thinking area of effect command abilities such as a Nomad Prince essentially giving board wide buffs with a +1 to hit due to the low LOS blocking terrain density of the setting. I would add the specific caveat that this ability only benefits command abilities that specify a unit to buff, rather than risk area of effect abilities becoming too potent.

Today sees the skin and spear for Saraal get some colouring and a bit of work on the base, he's nearing tabletop ready now

A touch more progress before I head off to work today

WIP Saraal first of the Host, souls ripped from Midnight during the Azyrite siege to forge an occupation force when the city fell. However as the city stands and the siege ended the occupation forces are now left without purpose, without home.
