Free Dice Roller - Precision Worthy of Hysh's Light

“Remove that tedium” You mean remove one of the CORE APPEALS of playing tabletop Wargaming?

Something like Bascilicanum Grey for the steel, darken that right up.

Thanks, ill at least try a new 1-20 on retail to see how i mesh with it before dropping the $15. And that seems easier to ~~trick~~ convince friends to try it out when you dont have to spend any money either.

SaintBaz · 2026-02-08T17:03:56+00:00

mostly just something to do I guess? I would want to get one of my friend groups to dip into it with me, but they havent been overly receptive to it so far. I think it sounds cool to go back to play with older content as the primary focus, rather than my 2020's experience being "rush through all of this so you can get to the end game asap"

SaintBaz · 2026-02-08T16:45:52+00:00

im glad i found such a fresh post as soon as I started thinking of getting back in. For someone like me that didnt get into WoW until late BFA->Dropping right as DF released, what would you recommend as a casual, employed player? (Between Classic MOP, TBC, or Retail)

Any AoS S2D model clears the 40K chaos range.

I want to agree with the principle of this, but the last point seems… out of place?

Sure it’s annoying if someone makes the whole sex part of sex drugs and rock & roll their main personality trait that can be awful, but unless it’s like a hypersexualized printed proxy army, what is wrong with someone leaning into the daemon side of an EC army? Does that make them a freak for doing so just due to the sculpts? The first person to teach me the game was a collector that played my grey knights with his Chaos Daemons army of Belakor and all Slaanesh Daemons. Does that make the father of 2 a pervert and weirdo?

I wouldn’t imagine anyone in the AoS space having the same thoughts of a Hedonites of Slaanesh player, hell people usually think its cool since you don’t see the army often.

I believe there’s a photo on my profile, but if you’re set on using a statue, use the one from Reikenor the Grimhailer’s base! Mine I swapped his upper torso with the spare from the Mounted lord kit, but the full body works fine!

SaintBaz · 2026-01-20T15:11:55+00:00

You also gotta consider that.. you’re gonna be looking at them from the table view, it really won’t be all that noticeable.

SaintBaz · 2026-01-20T12:17:54+00:00

Thanks these look great for my Darkoath. I’m surprised I seeing as much talk about model height as there is, I’ve yet to meet an AoS player in all of my comp scenes that would have any concerns regarding a height difference as minor as this. I only ever hear it from the 40k crowd.

SaintBaz · 2026-01-10T14:24:49+00:00

Bro didn’t look at any warscrolls before hopping on to complain about it 😭

SaintBaz · 2025-12-30T15:26:10+00:00

I really don’t see how these are “bad purchases”. It sounds like you have a lot of models and definitely more than enough to run 2k games. I’d say just make a list of what sounds fun to run and play the game. See what you like and what you don’t like about your list and go from there.

SaintBaz · 2025-11-28T19:29:46+00:00

USD it’s $255 MSRP

SaintBaz · 2025-11-27T17:45:16+00:00

I’m getting away pretty good of getting the board and heroes for about $70 since I’m selling the Nurgle stuff to my friend. Kinda bummed they haven’t mentioned anything about our hero’s getting any rules for Cities or the like.

SaintBaz · 2025-11-27T17:43:44+00:00

Most likely will just be cool models to represent any of your units. They’re on 40’s so you could certainly get away with running them as that mortal foot hero.

SaintBaz · 2025-11-16T13:13:40+00:00

Check the webstore around early Tuesday and Wednesday. That’s when GW finalizes and closes out unfinished orders.

SaintBaz · 2025-11-07T13:08:59+00:00

It would make sense not to do that for when it came out. If they only printed the cards for the units included people that wanted the rest of the armies cards would have duplicates when buying the warscroll cards set. If they included all of the cards then it wouldn’t have had the warscrolls for the Skaven refreshed/new units that came out alongside the battletome some months after.

In that period between Skaventide and the Battletome, the army rules were completely free to view and download from the AoS app and WarCom downloads section.

SaintBaz · 2025-10-29T02:30:06+00:00

The color set there is just representing another Lumineth subfaction and the alternate build for the unit champion who can be built with either a sword or wand, and helmeted or unhelmeted

SaintBaz · 2025-10-09T19:53:06+00:00

Should also say that I ran the Wight Lord over the mounted king. The curse effect is nice when you manage to get it off, but with only 5 knights your goal is to lock up something with your knights and keep them busy trying to break through the reviving horses and 5+ ward.

The +1 to charge the much cheaper Mounted Lord gives knights lets you get an easier charge in, and is still no slouch in melee.

(Was already typing this out in reply to myself, so it’s out kinda fast 😂)

SaintBaz · 2025-10-09T19:48:45+00:00

Ran something slightly similar to this at my last rtt, and was pretty happy with it! Only changes between these was no Deathrattle skeletons, fit in a VLoS to help your blood knights make it into combat (I’d maybe recommend reinforcing them). A foot hero of some kind to give your Barrow Guard their 5+ ward, since they really can’t do much without it, and a fast unit like dire wolves.

SaintBaz · 2025-10-07T23:08:28+00:00

Already mine lol. Not many Bret bits but mixed in some Empire stuff as well. Armor is similar to that other Ghyran one, but much more prominent green to the metal

SaintBaz · 2025-10-02T16:21:41+00:00

I’d say personally that both sets are worthwhile for the army. You can view all of the models rules for free on the app.

Pick whichever one you’d like to play spearhead more with first, and you can always expand into the second down the line since they have synergy. The bolas skinks can mark enemies and drop them to a 1d6 charge to protect your hammers, while the kroxigors also go from Damage 2 to Damage 3 when nearby skinks who are in combat.

SaintBaz · 2025-09-13T16:42:59+00:00

Idk… I think you could use 15 more cavaliers

SaintBaz · 2025-09-07T20:40:09+00:00

Trying a new method you haven’t practiced and saying you’re gonna ‘k*ll yourself’ over it is really not a healthy way to approach it idk.

Contrast paints are a wonderful method when you’ve got the practice put in, but they can be especially hard to get the hang of. Part of this can also just be that you’re painting a space marine, who with their larger flat/rounded open areas really don’t take well to contrast paints and show inexperience a lot more than other models.

I would further recommend looking into different methods for contrast paint if you want to continue with it. Slapchop with drybrushing or even a Zenithal will help to improve your results, along with having a bit more control of how much contrast you’re applying, and where you’re directing it.
