When do we think we will start seeing the CoS releases? hopefully the rumors about the bombard/handgunners are true.

I personally feel that the Ogres are fine, sure, they are a bit samey, but compared to other factions they are in a fine state. I would love to see a range refresh of Skaven first, and a second wave for FS, IJ, and IDK.

I think videos on being able to deal with FOMO, which is hard for a lot of people, would be a good thing for the hobby. Also, a topic about “mediocre” painting would be a good subject. I feel like we have too many of these high end painters, which are incredible painters, but the rest of us will never get to that point. I recently struggle with some mental dilemmas that were self imposed where I would have to paint to the absolutely best quality I could and if I didn’t it was stressful. In some regards, some of the high end content creators have damaged the hobby to an extent. I recently saw a comment where someone was complaining about someone painted job where it was a base coat and wash model that was part of a regiment, and the commenter was stating that it was not a finished models. That definitely made my brain hurt lol, no one can dictate what or how you should paint besides yourself.

For some wild speculation, if the box does turn out to be Tomb Kings vs Brettonia, what do you think will be part of that launch box? On the brettonia side, I could see that new paladin, 10-20 bowmen, 10-20 men at arms, 5-10 knights of the realm?

Yeah, I'm overly excited for the new base sizes, for that reason. That's an extra barrier / QoL that will be addressed with larger bases. I remember trying to rank black orks and that was miserable lol.

Thank you for sharing, this is a truly great video and was very eye opening for me. I was putting some sword masters on 25s last night and boy do they look better imo.

Yeah, people were complaining about Tomb Kings being evil, and not like a neutral. I saw quite a bit on FB and reddit.

I really have to give you guys a shoutout here, I love the reasonable takes here, instead of the rage that you see on the Facebook groups, other forums, etc. Totally agree with your points there, being able to relive and play through the Great War Against Chaos is going to be incredible. Can't wait for all of the narrative books.

I really think this is the logical thing that folks are maybe not realizing, but essentially what you said in the second paragraph.

Just because you don't get rules for your army right away, doesn't mean that it won't happen down the road. IMO - I think that a smaller scope is probably a better idea at least for the beginning, to "test the waters" of sorts. Do they really have the resources to release everything at launch? I think folks may have been expecting far too much, and hoping that its a new edition of fantasy, which really its not, its a new game that they are launching with the name of The Old World. They already mentioned that further books, supplements, etc.

I really really really hope that they become the poster faction for order going forward. They look incredible, gritty, and not over the top.

I printed them at 88% scale to match a true 28mm model, and are on 20mm squares. For ToW, I'll just use those trays that have the spacers, as this army I won't be rebasing since I want to keep it potentially for 6th.

The best posting is dwarfposting! haha. Thank you, my friend! I'm a HUGE fan of HM, they fit the 6th edition vibes completely.

Here are some of the pictures. Again, would highly recommend if it’s feasible for folks.

Would HIGHLY recommend the HM dwarves, so far, I have painted close to a hundred of their dwarves for my army. Probably have around 30ish or so left and I'm wrapping up that project, will have enough options to slot in/out.

I've been 3d printing an empire and dwarf army as the later plastics for both of them were severely lacking imho, the 6th ed empire state troops were far better than the ones from 8th, but planning on getting Bretonnia and Tomb Kings. I think my "main" will be either the lizardmen or Bretonnia.

I actually just clipped off the stormcast trophies from the new chaos warriors/knights, as I'm planning on using them for ToW. GEEEDUBBBS please tell us base sizes lol. I want to keep working on my projects, but feels not great leavingi painted projects on temporary bases.

Can't wait to add some White Lions to my high elf army. I have 12 metal ones, but refuse to pay those insane prices. I really really hope that we get a TK vs Brett box as it really seems to be pointing in that direction. Hopefully, the older style army/battalion boxes make a return. Wonder if they will gave us new base size information once the 40k push is done.

It's hard to tell but I think at the top right that is the cover for the battle for skull pass artwork. So excited to see Old World stuff on there. 😍

I hope CoS can be a full range refresh with potential new mixed race units instead of using fantasy models as a placeholder or catch-all. For me, Phoenix guard, will always be High Elf Phoenix guard, regardless of Aelves or not. I'd rather new units to be developed for AoS to be used there, while the Old World stuff can be used for TOW.

Tamurkhan would be SO SWEET! hopefully that's the case.

I still really find the SCE to be a missed opportunity. Wish they could have pushed further into the gothic, baroque, elegant style, similar to some of the John Blanche concept art. I'm really not a fan of that new band. The FEC look so good, so that's cool! Ghouls riding ghouls, when?!?!?! to mimic their knight virtues....for the lady! Hopefully, with CoS coming, the SCE can be put on the back burner as the main protagonist.

I have a ton of 2.0 books, as someone who likes to collect various forces, those just feel like a waste right now. Besides the book in the new seraphon book i haven't bought any 3.0 books.

The free online updated rules, is frankly an industry standard. I know that GW makes a significant portion of revenue off books, but still online rules that are free wouldn't replace the books. Folks could still buy the book for lore, hobby, path to glory, etc. It feels really bad when you buy a physical book that is outdated very quickly. If they were more in the region of $25 then it wouldn't be as bad, but for $50 its not great.

My only complaint is that rules feel like they are all over the place unless there is somewhere that I'm not aware of or made a cheat sheet by the community. Like the grand strategies, heroic actions, monstrous abilities, battle tactics. Tbh, I wouldn't mind if some of those could be condensed down as it feel like its a lot more that needs to be kept track of besides the verbose army and unit rules. I do wish the GHB was yearly again though, feels a bit bad buying a $50 book twice a year, especially if you don't get to play that often, but at that point could just omit that purchase. I did find Rob's reaction to MIniac to be helpful, imo. Along with the deep dive that they did with Warhammer weekly.
