    Wow! These are the stories I really love to hear! I'm glad you've been having an enjoyable campaign! To be honest, I've put Hinterlands updates on hold for the moment. Skirmish is out now which offers a really similar type of game (although without the character progression), so what I wanted to do was find a way to merge Hinterlands into Skirmish rather than compete with it. I started work on the changes but I did hit a few snags. Despite their similarities there are a number of differences to how a campaign plays out. In Skirmish it's super fast and although your Warband starts incredibly small it can be dizzyingly large after just a few games. Campaigns are also built around 6 games rather than being ever ongoing. So I've not been too sure on the best way to proceed. In the meantime there was Path to Glory coming out and also fan-made Skirmish expansions being made by the Warhammer Weekly crew and The Mortal Realms crew - I know the Mortal Realms guys quite well and am a fan of Warhammer Weekly so I again didn't want to compete with anyone and decided to put Hinterlands on hold for the moment. I'm actually now putting a lot of my spare time into Warhammer Quest. So that's what you'll see from me in the next coming months although coming back to Hinterlands just to add on more scenarios does sound like a fun project to do to so I'll think of some ideas in the background! :-) Cheers! bottle

    Awesome! I can't wait for this I painted up a Bloodbound Skirmish Warband especially for it: I think me and you are having a grudge first match aren't we Chris?

    I'm getting so excited for the event and desperately trying to paint enough Handgunners to field a big unit of them! I hope people are up for Skirimsh on the Friday night! Me and Chris will have the details up as soon as possible but we will be running it almost straight out the book so there's no reason you can't get your thinking caps on already and start concocting lists!

    What a fantastic bunch of characters! Let me know how your games get on!

    I love the tactics around reducing your drops, getting to choose first turn, being out deployed as a result, packing turn 1 threat, and the double turns etc etc etc If I could change anything it would be "one drop" armies.

    You're right lots of Forgeworld is technically Compendium, (Sayl is left a beggar stranded in the Empire last time we heard from him!) but the difference is most of the models aren't OOP like the citadel compendium, so I am really just talking about the the OOP citadel miniatures (and I guess the OOP Forgeworld stuff too). They wouldn't be removed from the game. Just the tournament circuit. They'd still have full support with rules and points on the website.
  13. bottle
    I hope they'll redo the "Age of Sigmar Rules" section on the webstore. Replace the PDFs with updated versions (only including compendium units and then a list of what the updated units (e.g. Freeguild Guard) have now become) and then also include the points for compendium units there too. In fact there should be four new PDFs each including all the warscrolls for a Grand Alliance. These are all free in the webstore/app anyway and I feel this section gives potential new players a very warped view of the game currently with 2 year old 'Compendium Packs'. 5 PDFs, one for each of the GA's, and one for Compendium and compendium points. For tournaments I am happy to lose Compendium. I'll have to retire the Empire Knights, Empire Cannon and Grim Burloksson - but they can all be used in Narrative or Club games. I prefer the game to be ever evolving at tournament level, and don't think it's right when some of the winning lists are of models you can't buy.

    Yeah, the new scenario was called "Total Domination" or something close, and the change was if you lost an objective and then retook it, it became more valuable (giving 2 points instead of 1).

    They must have removed the video. It popped into my YouTube feed but I noticed the community site have not posted it. The most interesting tidbit from it was Bloodletters will benefit from Massive Regiments.
  16. bottle
    Russ the face! Looks like Bloodletters will be getting the Massive Regiments rule too. Perhaps it's for all battleline?
  17. bottle
    I wonder then where the lines will be drawn on who can't ally with who. From the contents page it looks like general mixed alliance armies are still a thing - I will be sad if they're not as I play mixed Order and don't have a large portion of any one sub-faction (meaning I would be army-less if I had to abide by the allying rules).
  18. bottle
    Good catch. I overlooked that! Although the example given for Deathlords lists every single subfaction in Death bar 'Beasts of the Grave', and then specifically mentions Terrogiests (suggesting they will get realigned to another sub-faction). So for Deathlords at least it is Grand Alliance wide. You're probably right that this won't be the case for all.
  19. bottle
    I don't think there is going to be a complex allies matrix or anything of that sort. I imagine allying will be allowed across your Grand Alliance.

    Great to see you come over to TGA, Melcavuk! What about the great Stormcast you made out of the Slaughterpriest? Can't await to see your Lord Commander all painted up!

    I ordered the Fyreslayer SC straight away! Such a fantastic deal, I've loved the Fyreslayers since they came out but they were quite expensive so I stuck with just getting 10 Vulkites for my Order army. Now I'll have a full detachment in there: 20 Vulkites, 1 Runefather on Magmadroth, Runeson, Runesmiter, Doomseeker and Auric Runemaster. Can't to get them painted up! Heads up to anyone in the UK, if you order them from Firestorm and include the Heelan coupon, the total price is £40.16 - cannot go wrong there!

    I cannot wait to see the contents of the Fyreslayer SC!

    Arch Warlock by Xlanax Lot
    ? NICE!!! Love the colours
  24. bottle
    It's the latter, they already start at level 5 but don't gain abilities for those first 5 levels. They gain abilities from levels 6-10
