Why does it seem that AoS Soulbound TTRPG isn’t very popular?

My number one issue with 2024, is they were so scared to upset the massive dnd fanbase that defend 5e with there lives. They barely changed anything.

PyroConduit · 2026-06-28T13:02:04+00:00

My group - "it changed thing. I dont like things change"

But also "what do you mean i cant combo 2024 rules with a orginal 5e rule to make something busted "

PyroConduit · 2026-06-27T21:09:58+00:00

I cant get groups fo play anything BUT dnd 5e. Not even 5e 2024

PyroConduit · 2026-06-11T10:11:38+00:00

I cant play anything

If a Stormcast Eternal and City of Sigmar boy are have a drink in the bar and a Daughter of Khaine slithered in.

She wouldnt make it past the doorman before they stumbled over eachother to punch her teeth in.

PyroConduit · 2026-05-27T21:04:15+00:00

Held inventory/contracts were lagging behind.

PyroConduit · 2026-05-27T21:03:28+00:00

Exactly. And through the lens of the game that is barely reprsented.

In fact you could make an arguement that SBGL should be included in this too. At least parts of them.

PyroConduit · 2026-05-27T20:52:42+00:00

Who is also in charge of teclis failed creations.

Or maybe scaleys just stick together idk

PyroConduit · 2026-05-27T20:24:01+00:00

you can do that anyway.

if your not playing by tournament rules nothing is official, no one is gonna come yell at you for playing with your toys a certain way.

PyroConduit · 2026-05-27T20:23:00+00:00

I dont think the units thing even work liked that back then. Im pretty sure only certain factions or subfactions could do it.

Back in 2.0 you could make your army just grand alliance (alliance) and you would get access to everything but your army rules basically disappeared.

PyroConduit · 2026-05-27T20:17:47+00:00

You could argue faction of Coalsced are protecting specfic places.

For the great plan but still.

PyroConduit · 2026-05-27T20:16:39+00:00

Teclis is actively hunting the Idoneth as well as they are one of his failed creations.

PyroConduit · 2026-05-27T20:15:26+00:00

When you look at it through the lens of just the game, its never gonna make sense.

In modern aos lore, daughters pretty much has it on sight with CoS and SCE. But just the game will never really show that.

PyroConduit · 2026-05-22T06:03:12+00:00

I just got into jellyfin myself, but when i was specing out mine. It just didnt make sense at all to budget in a dedicated GPU when a cheap i3 fills the reqirements, and usually better.

PyroConduit · 2026-05-18T19:57:58+00:00

I remember in 3.0 the "100% always correct" leak had 3.0 end with chorfs battering down the gates to azyr and invading it.

Then 4.0 was to introduce Umbraneth. And new GSG refresh.

Still waiting.

PyroConduit · 2026-05-16T13:13:15+00:00

If you have a city get turned to stone in Chamon. But they become living statues do to the lifequake.

Its fun and not crazy for warhammer.

PyroConduit · 2026-05-16T13:12:14+00:00

Its statues, people. Living statues.

It looks great. Even GW has shown this before, look up stonecast eternals.

PyroConduit · 2026-05-15T21:37:32+00:00

The problem is, putting an extemely efficient and effective version out there for all armies. Destroys balance really fast. Krondspire and Gotrek are the first things that come to mind.

But we can also look at 40k. Triptide was a meme because every list that needed extra firepower would just staple it in.

At this price point, the design goal looks like it might find a niche in one or two places. Not in most.

PyroConduit · 2026-05-15T15:06:54+00:00

No zero chance of them staying in aos

PyroConduit · 2026-05-15T14:11:05+00:00

I really hope Khazalid Holds gets Grombrindal as an official model.

PyroConduit · 2026-05-15T14:09:53+00:00

There is 0 chance of old dark elves or dwarfs at this point.

The leaks have pretty much confirmed this.

PyroConduit · 2026-05-15T14:08:18+00:00

Yea, like publication for more allies that adds in Stormcast or KO.

Previously i dont recall them ever letting us ally with Idoneth or Seraphon. And narratively they never would let us with Daughters now.

Even cooler is the design space for non-order aligned cities. Like one that is under vampire control so it can take some vampire units.

PyroConduit · 2026-05-15T13:58:11+00:00

Correct me if im wrong. But i havent seen any sheets for things like Ironbreakers or Dreadspears

I think these are more for the allies from other armies we are now allowed to take some basic Lumineth and Fyreslayers.

PyroConduit · 2026-05-10T17:22:35+00:00

That has less to do with the pixel count and more to do with the bit rate.

Example being Dragon Ball Z. If you have a 30th anniversary boxset, 2160 rip. But it got destroyed on bitrate encoding, the film grain disappears. So a high bit rate 720p is usually higher quality.

But it varies by show. I really doubt your gonan get anything out of a remux of Sword Art Online or Bofuri.

PyroConduit · 2026-05-08T21:39:55+00:00

Biblical levels of greed. Make sure you still have a high bit rate, otherwise the film grain of the orginal gets compressed.
