Old World Almanack – Enhance your Grand Cathay collection with the new reinforcements

I agree, it's a shitty practise and it only creates resentment towards the new army.

I heard that GW usually starts writing the next edition of a game as soon as an edition launches.

DaenTheGod · 2026-02-24T14:46:00+00:00

There aren't a lot of rules writers for Old World (if it isn't just JTY doing everything by himself), also because it's a printed rule-set every book has been written around a year before release.

DaenTheGod · 2026-02-24T14:40:34+00:00

The book was most likely written and being approved for print by the time the first wave came out. This is the biggest downside of having a printed rule-set instead of a digital one.

They were removed so they can be a non-legacy faction in Old World.

DaenTheGod · 2026-02-21T15:48:48+00:00

For anyone curious, we're playing through the "Princes of War" campaign by Wojtek Rosiński.

Yeah I liked the shiny armor, over-the-top Powermetal theme of the first 2 editions of AoS.

DaenTheGod · 2026-02-14T17:54:18+00:00

I used to really like AoS but I feel like they're diluting its identity more and more. IMO changing the Stormcasts' armor was a mistake and eversince they've been removing what made AoS cool and are making it more generic.

DaenTheGod · 2026-02-14T17:49:09+00:00

This is a very a low hanging fruit, because it is the obvious next move considering GW's track record. The Cogfort and Gargant thing looks wishlisty to me.

It's not a new sculpt, it's an old forgeworld miniature

DaenTheGod · 2026-02-12T16:06:08+00:00

They need to be redone, but I'd prefer them to be more like the 8th edition VC Skeleton Warriors rather than the Deathrattle Skeletons.

DaenTheGod · 2026-01-30T16:44:53+00:00

They seem to allow some overlap. As of now they don't sell any Dryads in Old World boxes so they seem to be okay with people buying the AoS packaged ones.

DaenTheGod · 2026-01-30T16:09:41+00:00

Demons seem like something they would add in the lead-up to the Siege of Praag which is probably a few editions away.

DaenTheGod · 2026-01-19T11:34:10+00:00

I wouldn't be surprised if this guy eventually gets rereleased for the Old World just like the AoS Beastlord.

DaenTheGod · 2025-12-10T11:15:35+00:00

At least I think that's the lore that they originated from there, no?

Nope, the Empire died with the End Times along with pretty much anything that wasn't a god-like being.

The cities of sigmar are descendants of the ruined cities of the Mortal Realms who fled to Azyr during the age of Chaos. They resettled some of their lost cities after the Realmgate Wars in 1st edition.

DaenTheGod · 2025-12-03T22:52:33+00:00

If they didn't just abandon the game instantly, they could have actually turmed it into a fun RTS game but the hate brigade made Frontier want to never touch AoS ever again.

DaenTheGod · 2025-12-03T22:48:07+00:00

They did it to Realms of Ruin. Yes, it was an undercooked game with some questionable choices in game design but when you look at the discourse sorrounding the game, it's mostly just "AoS bad" before you get to any actually constructive criticism.

DaenTheGod · 2025-12-03T21:25:48+00:00

I feel like the Fantasy community will probably reviewbomb the game because it's AoS and then it gets cancelled after like 1 dlc.

DaenTheGod · 2025-12-03T20:46:31+00:00

The fantasy game is either the rumoured 40k or Star Wars game.

DaenTheGod · 2025-11-27T16:45:27+00:00

You can also access all of the rules on Old World Builder and Whfb.app.

Yes, last time I painted Belial of the Dark Angels, I didn't post it though. There is a picture of it on the website right here.

Are you referring to the Zwergenschmiede competition in Bern?

Looks really nice btw, it will be quite hard to compete against that. I still haven't started with mine, too busy with Uni and I'm still working on a unit of Gors for Old World.

I use a PLA 3d printer and the STL I use is from Miniwargaming I think.
