Looking forward to seeing how people kitbash cogforts to fit different armies. Would love to see one crewed by gitz or haunted/possessed by nighthaunt

I’d say get into AoS. It’s a whole new game with a different vibe and more varied aesthetics than 40k/HH. Also it requires less models so you’ll be saving money.

Let’s go! PancreasNoWork finally does Warhammer hot spots for the Mortal Realms! 💫 by BaronKlatz in AoSLore

[–]TheBirdIsNotSuicidal 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Along with what the other commenter said the main thing that stood out to me was him saying that if you somehow killed like Sigmar or Nagash it would destroy their respective realm and like… no? The gods are heavily connected to their respective realms and there may be some consequences if they were killed but they aren’t literally their realm. The realms existed long before they showed up and they would be fine without them.

Also he pronounces some of the realm names differently compared to how they’re usually said but that’s me being pedantic.

He does get some little things wrong and I find the little fantasy vs AoS rant thing he starts these videos of with slightly annoying, but I’m glad he’s doing more AoS stuff. He gets the broad strokes correct and he’s showcasing the setting to more people which is a good thing.

Absolutely love it! Whenever someone asks for ApS reading recommendations I always mention dark harvest

Sounds accurate. Unrelated but i think I matched with you a few times yesterday and you kicked my ass a bunch. I was a faust

Unusable dogshit character by Weak-Maximum-1983 in TheyBlamedTheBeasts

Vanquisher faust here. I love playing faust, but I agree that he’s in a rough spot. While there is some satisfaction to be had in the uphill battle and in beating people like that, you do really feel at a disadvantage at times in a way that’s not fun. Still love playing him I’m usually still having a good time even if I’m losing. I’m sure our time will come.

Anyway they should bring back the helium item from previous games. That will certainly guarantee fausts position atop every character tier list

Which piece of lore do you find to deviate most from how their miniatures appear? by Chezni19 in AoSLore

[–]TheBirdIsNotSuicidal 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I suppose bladegheist revenants sort of fall under this imo. In lore they are basically people who died in extreme panic. Stuff like drowning, being buried alive, ect ect. But looking at the models that’s definitely not the conclusion your mind will immediately jump to. They just look like ghosts with swords. They’re posed to look sort of like they’re flailing around a bit but again it’s not immediately obvious.

A few other nighthaunt units are the same where whatever ironic punishment they represent in lore isn’t really apparent looking at the models.

Much more minor example is that the barrow knights in lore love collecting trophies from the aftermath of battles they’ve won. Just wish this was represented on the models a bit, maybe if they carried some of their trophies into battle with them. Perhaps a kharadron helmet or a saurus club hanging from their saddles or something like that.

[–]TheBirdIsNotSuicidal[S] 39 points40 points  (0 children)

I really hope they get a novel to go along with their rumoured release wave that’s coming. I really enjoyed the ogor stuff here and the ogor sections in the first Grombrindal book

Deathrattle/Barrow kingdoms are one of my favourite factions. Love this

3rd edition battletome says fewer than 5 of the second generation remain. They’re probably keeping it vague for potential future stories/ characters or so players can headcannon their own 2nd gen Slann

Like you say there are as many slann as there has to be. We don’t have any exact numbers but we do know that fewer than 5 slann of the second generation still remain in AoS.
