i think one of the biggest issues with the realms is that you hardly see more..... habitable and permanent settlements with all of them, obviously thats been changed a bit more recently with CoS but id still like to see more actually livable places in each realm since people actually live in all of them

They are really good, they've got some weaknesses but have immediately become my main paints.

I'm colorblind so the system where the bottle doesn't just have some fantasy name but also tells you what it is and where it fits in relation to other similar colors is a complete gamechanger for me and had sped up my painting massively.

Every time I keep thinking it's close, they seem to keep going. And I can remember when Blood Bowl for £20 was 'wow that's a big buy'. But I will say that there have been a few things I'd LIKE to get, but can't justify as an unwilling nogames paintfag. Yes they're pretty, but... (in fairness it's not just GW, but unfortunately they seem to be taken by the rest of the market as a "price possibility signaller", there's probably a better phrase than that but I can't think of it just now).
>>
>>92744721
They're going to keep raising prices as long as people keep buying. Every fucking box they release sell out, demand is clearly higher than supply. Every price increase people keep saying "it's too much" but boxes keep selling out.

>>92744941
We are already at the point that buying and learning to use a 3D printer and printing one full army is about the same price and time investment as buying one that army officially. We're almost to the point that you could print two armies for the price of buying one. It's more of a convenience factor at this point that keeps people on GW products because it certainly isn't brand loyalty.

what's the best cities of sigmar unit to take as an ally for stormcast?

people keep bitching about GW being a shit company (which they are) but /tg/ was nutting ropes when the maw-grunta and NL sprue got revealed

It's hard to believe anybody here is actually going to boycott GW unles they already own a 3d printer and are fine using not-spacemarines and "interstellar guardsmen."

Still, I'm very excited to see the shitshow when GW gets too bold and does something so heinous that people actually stand up and do something drastic. people are going to forget about femstodes after the amazon show comes out, is utter shit, and is forgotten about. So far GW has done a good job boiling the frog.

The reason is ADB. He has a fetish. He is a member of more women in sci fi organizations, he talked about how GW told him to fuck off five years ago and not so subtly implied GW were sexist instead of what they said. He wanted them, just because. He likes sexy ambiguous brown tomboy strong women. They're in most of his novels. GW obviously knew the backlash would be bad hence the terrible mini and outrageously bad codex. But sneak in femstodes and you can tell shareholders the lack of sales is down to bad rules not femstodes. Let the fire burn out and buff them later, the WAACfags and dedicated fans stay and the 'chuds' leave. Nonsense about Amazon is nonsense.

Yes, it is, they were only sons, there was never a woman depicted, there was a duality between the male custodes and the female pariah, and we even have ADB whining about how GW didn't allow him to have female custodes because they told him they were all male

don't be retarded now, you're defending a retcon and doing it for politics.

So is being garbage xerox copies of their primarch that’s why there was no fucking place for them in the hypothetical that the great crusade finished. Space marines are shit compared to custodes and fucking trash compared to their primarchs. Space marines are literally spending millienia recycling geneseed versus custodes who need handcrafted genetics. Do you jackasses even pay attention to your own setting?

The Rogue Trader - very first mention - says they are men. The novels say they were made from sons of Terrain nobles. The female nulls of SoS were meant to be a dichotomy between the fact despite being handcrafted superhumans the Custodes were still weak against warp power and thus the female SoS were the joint force. With femstodes being canon why are any Custodes even male? Why aren't the SoS turned into Custodes? Why aren't there null Custodes? Why destroy the cool dynamic? What - outside politics and ADBs fetish - is the reason? Had there been a change in lore going 'the demanding war taxed even the formidable Custodes and new base materials were needed so females were used' us better than ' they were always female chud no ignore all those statements saying otherwise over 40 years'

You are making assumptions based on current rules, and its entirely possible that its handled in the rules (for example, abilities only last until the end of the turn unless noted otherwise).

what capitalistic reason? it was just adherence to the canon they had written

>>
>>92745978
the target is also behind obscuring terrain, from the point ot view of the unit wholly on it since it cannot draw a line to it without going over the obscuring terrain

Read the rest of the posts perhaps, the same was true for a number of other female characters when there weren't relative female models being sold or planned, yet they were written without issues.
Your reasoning is simply flawed and all to pretend that it wasn't a retcon, all to pretend you're not just arguing in bad faith because the retcon aligns to the politics you're subscribed to.

Why would you take such a strong preestablished aesthetic and flush it down the toilet?
>>
>>92746109
It wouldn't, if they are wholly within then there would be no point where they can draw a line that doesn't have to go from within the terrain to without the terrain.
if they can draw a line from a point from without the terrain then they're not wholly within.

it's not difficult, man.

If a unit is in such a position that any portion of it can draw line of sight to a target not passing through any part of the obscuring terrain, then it is not wholly within the terrain feature, and like wise if it IS wholly within the terrain feature, then it cannot draw line of sight to any target outside of it without some part of that line being obscured by the terra8n it is wholly within.

There is no 3rd option

And no, awakened wyldwoods are not the same things as wyldwoods. And even if they are, hiding things in trees is a thing Sylvaneth have been able to do without issues for two editions now.

quotas, malice, laziness, and an attempt to make them different to all the warcry bands that all have their cool hats, that unfortunately has to clash with the reality of GW taking the decision, perhaps after the finalisation of the design, to not keep up the warcry bands anymore.
other options are that the warcry bands were taken off because they knew these models were weak looking and wouldn't have sold as much if those presented an alternative, and another could be that they huffed too many farts about wanting to make these guys misunderstood noble savages that just happen to worship satans, so they scrapped dehumanising helmets, horns and masks.

the wilderfiend and horses are cool at least, hopefully someone comes up with good helmets to spice them up properly too.

the edge of a terrain feature is still part of the terrain feature

Yes, and that means that the line has to start, by definition, inside the terrain because the model is wholly within

There's no way for a model to draw a line from a point within to one without unless it crosses over a point of the terrain

You're wrong and stupid

no, it literally can't, the line doesn't start from a point next to the model, it start from a point ON the model, which has to be WITHIN the terrain
so the line is forced to have at least 1 point in the obscuring terrain

I also have 20 savagers and a bunch of the old marauder horsemen, so I figure I'm pretty much set for Darkoath with just the one box.

I am not the anon you were responding too.
Your explanation only works if a model doesn't occupy the same space as the terrain. Problem is that is does. LoS is also determined from the EDGE of a model, not within it. Which is where the problems come in.
Sorry GW can't write rules for shit, but that doesn't make your explanation correct.

Holy shit, you are a dumb fucking nigger. You need to have every part of the bases of all the models in the unit to be in rage, otherwise it's not "wholly within", it's just "within". Obscuring is specifically asking you to be behind or wholly.

Its about RAW, not intended. The edge point on the model occupies the same space as the edge of the terrain, which means the space immediately next to it is NOT terrain but the model is still WITHIN terrain. You have a peanut brain, my man.

the line starts at the edge of the base, which is within the terrain feature.it doesnt start next to the base. if the base can occupy the same space as the edge of the terrain then the line for line of sight can occupy the same space as the edge of the base and the terrain, and is therefore wholly within the terrain as well.

it cannot shoot

very viable. he's good but not mandatory, FEC can run perfectly good lists with just a bunch of smaller foot heroes and units. they will however almost always want at least 4 heroes due to how their army traits work if you're not running ushoran. ushorans big blanket auras allow you to skimp on other heroes, but without them you'll need a good amount of heroes to provide adequate field coverage for buffs and mustering

I’m sure it’s partially because of the cooler lighting and also jpgs compressing/losing saturation when uploading to 4chan, but it reads as if it used to be bold red a long time ago and has faded to a pinkier look. So it most definitely has more red in real life than what we see in the pictures. Pic related is how my pictures would differ when posted directly from my phone or personal use discord. Left is what is in the post and right is what it looks like on my phone. So I’ve just started uploading them to my personal use channel, opening the image, and using the snipping tool set to PNG, since they don’t compress like JPGs do, and posting that. I don’t know if it’ll further desaturate in this example, but I’ll be able to see once it’s posted.

I fucking wish. I used to play with my friend group which has essentially dissolved. I have 3 within a very reasonable distance and they all have dropped or not kept up with their GW product except for one still actively stocking paints. Playspace is nonexistent since they’ve all repurposed or removed their war game sized tables. Donated one of our groups homemade tables to one under the premise of helping start a warhammer group there and they immediately piled it high with old consoles and cables. I do have a GW, so that’s really my only option because the actual well-supported stores are about a 30 minute drive on a good day or more.

Enjoy symmetrical boards full of magic line of sight blocking L-shaped ruins, siggy piggies!

>>92748371
i already play the game with LOS blocking terrain
and impassable terrain

GWs official rules are worse than everyones house rules
>>
>>92748388
I’m glad they got rid of the rule that allows you to finish a move mid climb. My buddy would frequently have his Frostlords climb 2” up some terrain and pummel the unit below him with only 1-2 guys being able to hit back, if any

I’m sorry to hear that mate. The local community and or gaming side of it does play a big part in the hobby for me. like you said the building and painting is fun but being able to throw dice and see other peoples armies and chat shit is good. I am quite lucky that our local one is dedicated for table top war games. lots of terrain and different groups for whatever you play. Star Wars and 40K and sigmar and kill team etc

How could he pile 2" UP terrain and somehow be closer than the 1/5" he had to end his charge at.
>>
>>92744624
Same like last year(s).
They increase the prices for some items by 10, and some (paints) by 0% and it averages to 5%.
>>
>>92748466
I misremembered, he was always 1/2” above, still made it difficult to get him.
Another thing he would do is climb 1/4” up a piece of terrain and skate around the edge of it to go through chaff units.
>>
>>92748439
The face paint ruins this desu the rest of the model looks nice but the face just reads as sloppy and not intentionally
>>
>>92748330
I can imagine there's a workaround. Some USR or army rule that mitigates this issue.

>>92748439
dark hair frame the facemasks better, I'm not saying you should give black hair to all of them, maybe just a few strands close to the face?

>>92748454
I haven't put together every kit, the ones from Soul Wars were very difficult to do without gaps and clipping pegs. The stormcast had seams right through the middle of the pauldrons which were especially bad.

How the hell did soulblight get popular in AOS?

>>
>>92748544
How the hell did you think this was a worthwhile post?
>>
>>92748388
Also LoS blocking kinda matters a lot less in AoS due to the game being a lot more melee focused. Hell, in one of the earlier articles they flat out said they reduced the average range of ranged units across the board
>>

I'm going to be upset is cabalists is gone in 4th

>>92748544
cursed city was a relatively cheap way to build up a number of troops
the start collecting for flesh eater courts was also a cheap way to get zombie dragons, vargheists and some proxy-zombies
they received a large and almost all-encompassing update
undead in fantasy were a fairly popular and strong faction all through the game
they were one of the factions that received big attentions during the end times and some important focus in aos
at the start classic undead was pretty much the only undead faction in aos, meaning that if you're a undead collector that got into aos before 2018, then you were almost inevitably going to be a soulblight fan
up until recently the alternatives were an unfinished faction (obr), an unexplored faction (fec) and a monotonous extreme of the same overall theme (nh)

That's only going to matter if shooting ends up as oppressive as it is in 40k. The only reason why obscuring ruins are a big deal in 40k is because everything that can be seen is usually dead in one turn. If AoS ends up having that same problem L shape ruins are going to be the last of it's problems

Treelord got 3 builds, all of which are separate units, you can make each 1 per army and call them "Spirit of X"

>>92748902
Wait like a month and get the edition launch box, half the skaven kits are getting remade in like a months time.

It's almost like they're just axing the AoS rules and they'll still be legal in Warcry.
Because they were causing the StD tome to have way too many similar units or something.
>>
>>92749275
hard to say, but knowing GW they'll overcorrect so decent odds it will be scarce

>>92749320
Please no, I need the new stormcast at a cheap price.

>>92749369
I hope it's not the case even though I think it might be, the ubiquity of dominion was a boon for gathering large amounts of minis for very little cash
>>
>>92749275
the launch box (not just the starter) will be at a higher cost than usual for less models and with board and scenery
that's unlikely to warrant the multiple purchases that made other starters so widespread

At least here in my part of Texas, most of the things labled as “pubs” look more like honkytonks. All of the good, dedicated LGSs are on the complete other side of the metroplex, and many people in the FB group I’m in also just end up at each others homes, again on that side of town. My best option is to nut up and go to the GW with my army or at least try once with my friend. Now, he does have a room set up to play in but it’s literally just us two because getting the other couple guys that still live nearby to even go to lunch with us is like trying to pull teeth.

To my friend with the table? Easily. We've gotten 2 or 3 games in this year, but we both realize the terrain and opponent choice situation is pretty bleak. One of the other two guys lives literally the block over from me and the other is like 10 minutes away, which makes the whole thing that much more frustrating for me and the dude with the venue.

Poor starving failed merchant sneak into a cult to eat some of their harvest sacrifice. Turn out the cult was a secret Slaanesh cult and the seed he eat was possessed by a Keeper of secret. It took pity on him but cursed him to only be able to satisfy it hunger on the most exotic of flesh so he began his corruption by eating a corpse of a wizard found in the sewer drain (it was Hysh there a buch of wizard there)

now he all about tyring the most majestic of dishes and sensationalist of taste as lunatics and even some ogres travel far to join his feast in the name of that KoS. He been eating so many wizards that he has become one

10/15 raptors build. Might leave the riders off, would be fun to just have a pack of cheery little raptors running around. They don't have a saddle or anything to shave off, just a few dots on the hips to fill in
>>
>>92750040
I like them too but hate how they’re pretty much heading straight for Dark Eldar with their narrative
>>
>>92750348
i like the less sex focused slaanesh stuff theyve been doing since it makes the army feel more fleshed out and less one note.
Like they still have the sex aspect but its not JUST sex its every form of excess. I definitely feel while the slaanesh army is still missing some units and themes, they easily came out on top for AoS monogod. Khorne feels too pigeon-holed, tzeentch SHOULD have been great but has probably the worst monogod army, tzaangors being mediocre flanderized designs, and similarly flanderized marauders. Nurgle stuff is fine but most of it is technically whfb with little new actual AoS models
>>
>>92750459
They're actually even worse then Dark Eldar. Because anyone who fights them, forgets them, so they actually carry negative narrative weight. You can't pull shit like "I survived an Idoneth raid", because they'll just have a vague memory of fish elves.
>>
>>92750479
Khorne suffers from being the foil to the SCE in the starter box, so they have the same design flaws the 1st wave of SCE had
The main issue, i think, with khorne mortals is that they feel too much like world eaters, you have the chaff that CSM use to grab objectives, the main marine equivalent and a terminator lord in the migthy lord of khorne
>>
Does anyone know a good gloomspite stabba proxy STL? I gave some away over some months to my students and I recently lost one of my betters (I know I’m stupid still can’t find it).

You in DFW too fren? If you’re in the southwest I think you’re fucked. If you’re on the north side there’s spots in Carrollton and North Fort Worth that have active discords and huge communities. There’s always the GW but the last time I was there a giga autist kinda latched onto my game with this other guy and kinda soured me on the place.

I know there’s big clubs in Austin, Houston, and San Antonio but idk where to play in those cities

Any reccomendations on what to do with the vengorian lord to make it more FEC? im probably planning on keeping it a bat centaur but i definitely want to do more than JUST a headswap since the armor is pretty SBGL (even though modern FEC do have actual armor, its less upkept)
I also wonder what to use it for, since its a bit too small for an ushoran or zombie dragon stand in, but a bit too big for most of the courtiers. The plan is to eventually use the new Anvil of Apotheosis stuff to make something custom, but who knows when FEC will get that
