AoS continues to try and pump out old Warhammer models with 40k overdesign splashed on top, and the game slowly dies.

Not even joking, I think the writing will be on the wall by the end of the year for AoS, unless they seriously revamp the rules and get the tournament crowd back in the fold.

What does WHFB/AoS General think about a 'Journey to the Center of the Earth' style campaign for WFRP? A group of adventurers hunting for the Malus at the core of the world?
>>
>>44561174
>What do you predict for 2016?

Continued shrinkage of the community as WHFB lacks active support. Older players increasingly fragment between 8th because it was most recent, earlier versions because they're considered better in various ways, and homebrew. Newer players are put off by AoS being unworkable for pickup games and other systems requiring very uncasual commitment to get going, at least here in the UK where only GW stores have table space.
>>
>>44561181
>JESUS PUT ON SOME PANTS
>FUCK
>>
>>44561275
could be fun. you may even make it a race against Skaven who want Malus for some nefarious ends (either to use it to make super-tech, or to corrupt the core of the world)
>>
>>44561082


If GW had half the sense of /tg/ they would do the same for WHFB and AoS, thus saving them both
>>
>>44561291
>make it a race against Skaven

Fuck, I didn't even consider that. Genius idea, I love it.
>>
>>44561154
40k has enough posters and material to even have single factions generals when the time of releases come around and even their generals have a cohesive group of posters staying in both.

The AoS and WFB generals often talked about similar things and were negating support one another.

All hail the union! may differences represent expansion rather than division.
>>
>>44561257
Looking at the increasing (or should I say escalating) mess that is the 40k ruleset, GW trying to tournament-ify the AoS ruleset is the last thing I want.
>>
>>44561257
doubt that. even GW have the brains to see that 9th Age and KoW have wrenched tournament scene from them completely.
>>
>>44561327

AoS seems to include an awkward attempt at a fuck you to tournament players by being entirely unbalancable... Except tournaments can pretty easily arrange house rules, so it ended up being more of a fuck you to people who mainly do pick up games and thus can't deviate from the back-of-a-napkin core rules.
>>
>>44561322
>All hail the union! may differences represent expansion rather than division.

Amen, brother!
>>
>>44561257

I'm not sure about it dying, and personally I as a Timmy like the game as is, but I remember what it was like being a Timmy in previous editions and feeling like the game didn't really support my play style. Therefore I don't like seeing the same thing now happening to the Johnnies and Spikes. They make up a significant portion of the community and deserve a game they can enjoy as well. I hope AOS ends up with even a basic working balance system so we can all stop arguing about it and play together.
>>
>>44561275
I like it! The underworld has plenty of potential from long forgotten civilizations of deep ones, raiding parties of dark elves, skaven and dwarfs diggers, greenskins hordes and lizardmen parties led by troglodons; there be monsters, there be lost ruins, there be even the great maw gnawing from one end of the world to another, or the worldroots of the oak of ages.

You only need to better define how valuable is mallus and the metals around it for the various parts.

Hell you could even use the opportunity to have a cross setting thing, with stormcast protecting the core of the world like shadows of the future projected back in time should you want to put AoS in this.
>>
>>44561365
>this guy again who fundamentally misunderstands the timmy-johnny-spike distinction

you are not a timmy, you are a dummy
>>
>>44561365
Remind me, what's Johnny? If I recall correctly Timmy is fluff-at-all-costs/takes the models he thinks are cool, and Spike is win-at-all-costs/buys the latest netlist, but I can't remember the third one.
>>
>>44561346
Yeah, but letting tournaments go without a fight seems entirely counter-productive. AoS is supposed to be a game for people to play, not just a source of minis for modelers, but (in my area) they haven't stepped up at all to actually get people playing the game publicly, having fun, and enticing kids to spend a few hundred dollars on making their own armies.
>>
>>44561407
>You only need to better define how valuable is mallus

So far the working assumption is that Mallus/Sigmarite = Gromril. Gives it a nice counterpart and something to work with.

>want to put AoS in this.

So far I'm working on an overarching campaign that will take them through the Endhammer alternative setting, but opens up into a campaign into the Realms of Chaos where they will have the opportunity to choose between Classic Warhammer, Storm of Chaos, Endhammer or AoS and essentially change the course of time.
>>
>>44561450
tournaments in classic sense are no way to go for AoS

in GW's place I'd pitch for story-driven campaigns. something massive, flashy, possibly integrated with vidya or social media.

I feel like the biggest thing about WHFB that drove away new people was the game size, and the cost that stemmed from that. Having to buy, build and paint hundreds of identical minis will scare away a lot of 40k players, let alone people who are new to the hobby.

I've been told by some that older editions had a much smaller scale, but I wasn't into Warhammer at all back then, so I can't confirm.

Why roll20.net doesn't support 2ED character sheet?

>>
>>44561485
WHFB/9th Age needs to make some rules accomodating free-er model placement on the tray. KoW gets a lot of credit by allowing its players go wild with unit fillers and model placements.
I understand that it is tricky when you actually get to remove models, but some unit fillers being ENCOURAGED would be nice. And allow for a bigger % of filler. Like 1/3rd of the unit can be a filler, or even 1/2 if it's made up of multiple fillers.
>>
>>44561502
Assuming it survives to the next edition.
>>
9th Age question

Would it be worth it on Thicket Beasts (aka Tree Kin) though? 10pts per model seems a bit steep.

(I guess this is totally worth it on Dryads
(WS4 S5 T4 I5 A2 Core for 15pts? sure makes my dick hard))

Are they fighting to decide which side has the right to not wear clothes or something?
>>
>>44561154

40k and HH are completely different games and usually have their own generals, however you did have people from the latter posting in the former when there wasn't a thread for whatever reason.

That both can have threads show there is enough interest to keep them both separate and alive, though I think the HH threads are slower.

>>44561234

They've said absolutely nothing about supporting Mordheim, haven't even so much as hinted at it. In fact they seem to be entirely focused on getting Bloodbowl out the door at the moment, maybe the Deathwatch versus Genestealer Cult boardgame if they're working on it and not the GW Design Studio.

>>44561257
>>44561346

Where is the evidence that tournament players even make up a sizable number?

For how important they're being purported to be, recent Fantasy threads on /tg/ focused on the game fell off of /tg/ with under 50 posts while KoW hasn't had generals in at least a month and had to open up to other Mantic games to keep the thread afloat.

>>44561485

The number of models is honestly what did it for me. Just because I like some models in a faction or an aesthetic doesn't mean I have the desire to buy and model a bunch of others. This is particularly true in the case of Tomb Kings whose core models were pretty bad.

>>44561554

Eh, I remember seeing stuff where it's obvious Mantic is even trying to promote people buying a bunch of models because they know it's what will keep them a float. Shit like if you're unit is 40 models big then you should at least have 20 models represented.

>>44561624

Chaos Dwarfs and rules for them are still available from FW.
>>
>>44561692

The designers just watched Braveheart and thought the idea of flashing your enemy your junk was a great idea and ran with it.

but 9th Age don't sell models. they can make nice rules without hitting their own vallet
>>
>>44561699

god damn it if the price of the unified general is enduring the multiquote guy, it is too high for me
>>
>>44561726

Perhaps, but I doubt they're thinking of new players and instead catering to the "muh mass battle, I can't play X because it's not mass battle" group.
>>
>>44561554
I feel like instead of using tons of filler, points increases across the board wouldn't hurt. Make 20 skellingtons cost more, because a full box of skellys shouldn't be 50 points or something stupid like that.
>>
>>44561699
>40k and HH are completely different games and usually have their own generals,

So are WHFB and AoS.

One is a game and the other is a non-game Just kidding.

Do I am the only one who thinks this thread is a ruse to create some massive shitstorm.
>>
>>44561770
THAT is a big hit to "mass battles" vibe.

to be honest, I already see them adding stuff like Bat Swarms to Core, which greatly cuts a number of models needed to feel up Core, and allowing expensive upgrades to Core, like that Dryad buff wood elf anon posted a few replies above.

guess that solves much of the issue.
>>
>>44561770

Could also just make the average game size smaller or throw out the percentage based system except in a few cases, like FW does in HH with regards to LoW.

Implementing 40k's unit caps where the highest is 30 model for some units wouldn't hurt either, apparently it was done in the past for some units.
>>
>>44561699
>They've said absolutely nothing about supporting Mordheim

What? No. That can't be right...wait...no...

My sense of apprehension is rising.

>>44561802
It can be a mass-ish battle system, but have you seen the size of a 2k game?

we need to write down the definitive OP more harmoniously

for starters, despite preferring the setting of the old world, I would say the OP picture to be either a commonly chosen symbol like pictures of ghal maraz or directly artworks from the age of sigmar, either because they make out many pretty fast, because we have ways to find them easily in a good resolution but most of all because they easily embody new things like what's the currently releasing miniatures and fluff being an immediate thing to start a thread with.

secondly I think we need to leave less space for the video games and wikis, they give minor visibility to the pastebin resources for both AoS and WFB which I think are the first thing that should be visible after the title and the ironic edition of the thread, for example the AoS one has the quick guides to introduce a newcomer to the age of sigmar and would allow to skip at least some cases of people coming in asking for info and causing a possible shitstorm, or at least it could help toning these cases down by offering quick info to start the discussion with a more direct question.

lastly, the no shitposting rule must always be there I say, accompanied possibly by an intuitive rule on how to discuss and treat opinions; stuff like "this is not the place to discuss the opinion and preference of others, ignore everything regarding it", this applying both to the choice of the setting, the army, and even the take on the fluff discussion, shitposters revel in trying to suffocate homebrews, headcanon or a choice on things for their own hobby or group by trying to cause reactions, this is a place to discuss everything.

it will be difficult, but having seen the true light of many posters, I believe we can do it.
>>
>>44561811

>Forge World have been reorganised to some extent with Andy Hoare now head of the Specialist Games area, the first on the workbench is Blood Bowl. Expect late this year with plastic Human and Orc teams in the box with more teams in either plastic or resin to follow. The plan is FW will design the models with Citadel producing them in plastic. Whether the additional teams happen in plastic or resin (if at all) will probably depend on how well the box set does.

>While they hope to cover all the old games nothing is set in stone and there is no plan currently laid out. So while they may hope to redo Epic (or some kind) in may not happen, or if it does it may be far off and come back in a different way.

They're not saying they won't be doing Mordheim, but they're not saying they're going to do it either. It's all very up in the air.

Since it's FW, I'd place money on them doing projects which are of interest to them.

you do understand that by increasing point costs across board you're changing nothing.

depends on the enemy you want them to fight, if you want the tree kin to fight heavy infantry or monsters they could do the job, if you have other things for those and simply want them to be an anvil unit against normal infantry I say the effects don't justify the investment

The setting is multiple endlessly respawning factions fighting in a malleable chaotic realm after the world has already died. Of course it's stagnant: It doesn't have any stakes to be fought for. Just an eternal pissing match on the corpse of reality.

I'm not talking about AoS needing more visibility than WFB, it's just that the video games link make it a mess and that the news will actually be tied to AoS most of the time, may as well put relevant pics too, the trend in their threads on the general image wasn't bad.

Azyr has yet to be breached and there is still resistance in the seven other realms, resistance which has been emboldened by the appearance of the Stormcast.

Well, son, let me tell you about the Dark-Under-The-World.

There's things down there that'll haunt your dreams, if you escape to live another day and can get your hands on enough sweet poppy to sleep again.

There was an elf, you see. He told us he needed to get down there, didn't tell us much about why. Said it was rumoured there was something at the core of the world that would make the phrase 'worth its weight in gold' look like a cheap proposition.

But he also warned us that all the things that crawled the surface before the light of the sun shone down so brightly upon it fled down there. Should have listened, but I was as penniless as a leprous whore.

Down there, in the dark and the cold, we saw blind, toothy bats - though it weren't really fair to call these things bats, with how big they grew. Swarms of the things would drop out of the dark, unannounced, and their paralyzing venom would turn a man stiff as a board while they drained him dry.

We got ensnared by the webs of the flourescent sorrow spiders. We really shouldn't, but we were hungry and desperate. Hordes of the things waited for us to be trapped and ate men alive, while they're still tasty, warm and wriggling.

Great tentacled beasts brushed our raft, the craft we lashed together to cross the inky green-black water of the underneath. Hideously writhing limbs would pluck men screaming from the deck, we'd hear a scream, a splash, and it wouldn't bother us again until it was hungry - though if you looked into the misleadingly still water, you'd sometimes see massive eyes peering back.

Unexplained witchlights would dance on the edge of vision. Massive fungi, mushrooms the size of a man would seem to move when you weren't looking at them, and when one of our band got brave enough to poke at one, it let out an almighty screech and sprayed the poor soul with spores that ate him down to the bone like acid, all the while feeding growths the like you've never seen sprouting all over his body.

about the OP pic, I remain my case, new images attract the eye well and offer a visual resume of what's coming out, but we have nothing stopping us from just posting ghal maraz or other general artworks.

And let's not even talk about the skaven.

Aye, the rat-men of legend exist, son, and they're every bit as cruel and terrible as in the stories your mother used to tell you. But there's things down there that'll make you come to think of a furry snout as a welcome sight.

If they end up being the worst thing you deal with one day, you'll be marked as lucky men. And rat stew is mighty appealin' after days of the hunger gnawing away at yer insides.

Spare a man some brass, though, son? If I can get me hands on enough, I might sleep tonight. I might be able to afford enough powder and bullets to shoot me'self some lunch a'fore it scurries outta' sight.

shard dragons, dread maw, great blight wyrms, bats of all sizes, same for spiders, creatures from lustria and the new world are also known to live in caves, like cold ones, horned ones, troglodons, hydras, or even lots of snakes since sotek's influence has brought them to infest numerous galleries around the world in search of skaven.
but you can put a lot of stuff in there, the place is so big there're oceans, a big deal of sea monsters may lurk there or older more terrible things should you dig too deep.

it's a gold mine for stories in theory.

Oh, wind your neck in and stop throwing around accusations that people work for GW. As they'd been posted in the AoS general any WHFB players that don't browse that thread wouldn't have seen them, so I thought I'd repost them here in case any dwarf players were interested. That's all.

what you want it to be, it's not a chromatic lore, I'd say that with fleshy dark tones you can't go wrong though maybe a dark red or purple, you may even model some teeth and jaws to contrast with bone.

I can't provide a quote, but they said they do plan on doing a progressing story. Notice the Quest for Ghal Maraz book says "Realmgate Wars Book 1". They will be progressing the story through the big campaign books. They know it's too late to do a progressing story with 40k, but its not too late for this brand new setting.

Progressing the story allows for new minis and things to be released and being able to say 'it's new in the fluff' rather than say 'what? space marines have always had centurions!"

We all know that WHFB/9th age generals fall off quickly after created, and AoS generals don't survive without the constant shitposting, bringing them together will be a good solution.

The only thing making it difficult are shitposters like you, both communities want to have an active thread to talk about the warhammer setting without dealing with constant shitposters.
You do not seem to want the community on /tg/ to survive and instead are encouraging an extreme take on the discussed setting for the sake of shitposting.

Shit, actually that's a good question. Or at least the crux of an interesting question.

Assuming that the Warhammer World follows a similar relationship to it's nearest star as the Earth does...would people who live closer to the equator have a darker skin tone?

If they are like plants even for these circumstances I assume they might get of a darker tone and hardening their skin.

The Fyeslayer will be working for Chaos as much as they work for Order. Remember that they only follow the Ur-Gold. Archaon has already delivered so much asskickery to last me a lifetime.

And hype posting is not shitposting.

Also remember who gave you the Seraphon BT. After what two or three months of no one stepping up to leak the BT? ME.

really nice, although I'd give a bit more spotlight to 9th Edition, seeing as it's old WHFB's main edition now. I'd say, put it above wikis, but below AoS.


AS FOR PICTURE
I suggest making something like a picture frame, with WHFB, AoS and 9th Age symbols on it and stark green in the middle, drop into a pastebin and keep a link in the OP always.

this way anyone making an OP can apply this frame to any artwork he chooses, so there're always symbols of all the main systems present on the image and everyone's content

well, with the AoS's multiverse it can be assumed that Gorkamork (or is it Morkagork?) was once an orc, who got bigger and bigger and bigger and bigger, until he became a god.

other than that? Gorbad Ironclaw, methinks. most badass orc out there.

>Who was the biggest Orc of them all?

Grimgor

>Orcs slowly get bigger and darker the stronger they get. What's their extreme/endgame? Is there a limit to how strong/big an Orc can get?

Old age seem to affect Greenskins in fantasy.

Skarsnik for example was growing weak with age. Greenskins might have lifespan but most won't reach it.

Do you think that was because of age or because he started losing fights? Just food for thought, I'm not too familiar with the character.

What would the lifespan be for an orc then? Human equivalent?

I've come to terms with AoS taking Fantasy's place, but come on, at this point they're simply different settings, and the differences are going to get bigger as time passes. Discussion would either have misunderstanding from people entering arguments with the wrong setting in mind, or one setting's discussion would be buried on the wake of the other (WHB being the one buried of course) and their fans would go back to make their own threads again.

With the recent activity of WFRP threads I don't see why Oldhammer/Bloodbowl/Mordheim/etc fans can't jump into that, while the vigorous and still GW supported AoS can easily stand on its own.

Not trying to shit on any of you, just saying my piece. I'm gonna go back to the WFRP thread and won't bother you anymore. Peace.

So the god of an Orc isn't itself an Orc?

Is Sigmar still human?

Or better yet - was Ulric ever human?

>>44565021
>Do you think that was because of age or because he started losing fights?

No, Skarsnik was at the top of his game as the Warlord of the Eight Peaks. He was just growing old naturally.

>What would the lifespan be for an orc then? Human equivalent?


Unknown. Orcs don't live long enough to die of natural causes.

WFRP tends to be a better home for the Fantasy side of things anyway. I agree with you wholeheartedly.

Sorry, I've been observing this thread and I am going to say this venture was a bust. If anything it gives the AoS-shitposters renwed vigor, because they think they are winning this. Their goal would be to expunge AoS from /tg/, and if we do this combined thread, then all shitposting moves wherever it goes, then the WHFB/9th players who were ok with the joining would get hostile and drive AoS out because they don't want the constant shitposting and mix ups. I'm not saying AoS has no shitposters either. There are a few who would refuse to accept anything but AoS and attempt to derail any discussion not AoS related. Both sides would be playing victim to the arguments.

Then of course the next course would be to separate the threads again, and shitposting would still follow to the AoS general threads of old, and it would be the same story. Many AoS supporters would get tired of the drama and leave /tg/ entirely, causing any AoS discussion to ultimately die, therefor a win for the haters.

I still say our best bet is a dedicated AoS General thread. Sure they move slow and sometimes die, but it is better than this. For a while we actually had a thread or 2 reach 300 posts with minimal hateposts. Sure they took 5 days to get there, but it is definitely better than this alternative. Shitposters dont want you to realize that the AoS General threads could work without them.

So my vote is splitting the threads again. Anyone else feel the same way?

>Where exactly? I am curious.
There were mentions about champion or Daemon Prince or Greater Daemon who sacraficed universes to Khorne.

>>44565144

Are they the same species the same way Caucasians/Asians/ect ect are the same species, or the way Seagulls/Hawks/ect ect are the same species?

Because holy shit is that a lot of morphology for a single species.

How does that even work?
>>
So I've been away from WHFB for a while and have just come back to find this Age of Sigmar shit. Can someone explain what it is/how it's different? Is it good?
>>
>>44565049
first of all, WHFB and AoS share model lines.
even if 9th Age kicks in its miniatures, GW minis will still be a staple.

secondly, AoS adepts mostly still come from WHFB background, so even if they crossed over to AoS, they may still be interested in WHFB-related discussions.

I don't see no reason for us to be sevaral half-dead threads instead of one with varied backgrounds.

>>44565084
seriously, don't believe trolling tutorials out there. any fag worth his salt has seen them and by following them you just further prove you're trolling. have some dignity or something. get better or get out.
trolling ain't something you can do by the book, and you're doing it by the book.

>>44565156
bah, same thing

>>44565157
we shall see. WHRP threads were 90% shitposting, what little I've seen of AoS threads were 90% shitposting, last dying WHFB threads were 90% shitpostng.

not much has changed yet.
>>
>>44565127
>How old was he when he started showing signs of wear and tear?

Check the Orc and Goblin army book details about when he took control over the peaks. In this period he was at his young "man" stage.

Then check the date of End Times Thanqoul events. At this period he was suffering from signs of old age.

This will give you some insights on his age.
>>
>>44565200
>Is it good?
Yep. You don't need to spend shitton of hours and money to make 1k army for start, rules is simple and interesting, models is overpriced for someone, but they have good quality.

things were pretty civil until that dude started shitposting whfb. actually much better than the last aos thread which was just a grand pool of shitfest

Hey dude, have a read of this:

>https://1d4chan.org/wiki/Warhammer:_Age_of_Sigmar

Has a pretty decent summary for you.

>>44565216
>This will give you some insights on his age.

Jesus thats...that's a fair heft.

I mean, if Orcs and Goblins share that sort of aging mechanism, then greenskins have a really long lifespan.

Again, this is assuming that winning fights doesn't some how lengthen their lives.

It could also be a psychological aspect - winning fits compels greenskins to live longer. Skarsnik might have just been getting tired of winning.

YEP. That left fucker is definitely WHQ. It's great to see they reused the same basic design there. Nice little nostalgia bomb.

Night Goblins sounds about right.

Thanks for solving the mystery, brother.

So?

1) They can come in WHFB thread and discuss WHFB, but why WHFB and AoS players should delve through the unrelated (with their discussions) posts to find their posts?
>I don't see no reason for us to be sevaral half-dead threads instead of one with varied backgrounds.
Why not? It worked well, why do we need merging threads about two games which totally different in temrs of design, fluff and rules?

It's the same fun which was WHFB generals during ET.

Because we choose to.

We currently have a WFRP general and a Warhammer General. There's nothing stopping people from posting the amalgamated general and posting individual generals as well.

You should leave this thread. You don't like it.

Yeah, it's just uncomfortably.
Also, again what about idea of merging with all 40k threads, with WIP?

Im completely new to Warhammer, and after just playing 2 rounds of Warhammer FB, and losing both, i had the luck and got a lot of shit for free. long story short: It would be great if you could help me to create two army lists to play with a friend - the shit i've got should be more than enough.

So, here it is:

Dwarfs

-5 Iron Breakers
-5 Hammerers
-2 Canons and a organ gun (all with teams)
-17 musketeers; (2 of them dual wielding guns, 2 wielding a flag, one musician)
-12 clan warriors (2 of them leaders, 1 with a flag, one musician)
-17 longbeards
-8 dwarf miners (one musician, one with a flag)

also a slayer and a king and a master engineer

and also a lot of Highelfs; here things get complicated because i have even less knowledge about them, so i can only describe how the units look like:

-1 balista
-12 siting on a horse, only 2 of them with a sword, one of them looking like a leader.
-13 Highelves with a longsword, one musician, one leader
-25 with a halberd, one leader
-one supreme looking guy with a staff and a glowing sword, some kind of king maybe?
-also one mage looking guy, blowing some horn.
-and one king sitting on a dragons back.

we're all playing just for fun, so proxying some units as others is no problem.

oh, and as far as i know, we're playing the last version before The Age of Sigmar.

help would be much appreciated.

right?
>Then I am glad you choose to suffer.
Not only I, everyone who not interested in AoS or WHFB, but for some reasons you want increase shitposting in AoS discussion or remove people who didn't like AoS from WHFB generals.
>>
>>44565439
>Except we clearly haven't chosen to.

There's at least 40 people posting here. If people didn't want to post in a united general...they wouldn't. It's not like anyone has a gun to their head.

If people didn't want to post in a unified general, they would just go back to their individual generals. It's not a question of one or the other - both are still up. Post where you want.
>>
>>44561257
but you know what? I'm glad they named it Age of Sigmar instead of just morphing Warhammer Fantasy INTO what Age of Sigmar is now without making it LITERALLY a new game.

this way we can seperate out the cancer.
>>
>>44565468
It's shit, too many ways for your enemy to have sudden death.
>>
>>44565439
no, people wanted to peacefully post in united thread. then a shitposter like you came and started stirring shit.

there's no shit-stirring without shitposters, mate.
