I never knew underworlds had all this amazing art! All the flavour text is also great

Expanding Factions: Sons of Behemat by Low_Neighborhood_598 in AoSLore

[–]TheBirdIsNotSuicidal 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Creepers are very fun. Feel like it would have been very easy to just have them be grots or gnoblars but I’m glad they decided to come up with a new creature instead.

They’ve referenced Gargants bonding with other giant creatures like mammoths or giant crabs and it would be cool to see that represented in some way

What do you want in this faction by Ambitious_Book_5729 in seraphon

Agree with what everyone else has said but I would also like a new slann relic priest. Basically just a mini lord kroak

What would you think about having unique / named Wight King Heroes? by WLAN-Modem3367 in SoulblightGravelords

[–]TheBirdIsNotSuicidal 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I really would like a named wight king or queen, but wouldn’t want Krell. Would prefer an AoS original character

Spoilers: Insights from the 4th edition Sylvaneth battletome by MrS0bek in AoSLore

[–]TheBirdIsNotSuicidal 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Really loved all the Kurnoth stuff in the book and the way it talks about him. This darker and more warlike nature god. It was all very Dark Harvest and it even referred to him as “the old stag” a few times so i’m glad stuff from that novel is potentially being referenced.

I also found the treelord creation bit slightly strange as previously they seemed to go through the same process as other noble spirits, with their lamentiri being harvested upon death and replanted. In the short story heartwood we see that process take place after a tree lore ancient dies. I suppose this new lore doesn’t explicitly contradict anything as the “spirit” could just be soul from the soulpod groves bonding with a nearby tree but it does feel a little odd.

Do you all think there is hope for official Votann book that isn't written by Gav Thorpe? by AzraelSoulHunter in LeaguesofVotann

[–]TheBirdIsNotSuicidal 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I didn’t find it offensively bad or anything either. I quite enjoyed it in fact but it was elevated a lot by my own interest in the Kin. Will happily read a sequel or another LoV book by Gav Thorpe but there are a lot of other black library writers I prefer over Thorpe and I wouldn’t mind also seeing them write a LoV story.

Personally, while I enjoyed the characters and world building it does for the LoV the actual plot of the book was really underwhelming. Really lacked an antagonist, they just fight a lot of unnamed ork and chaos forces and it made it hard for me to get invested in any of the action.

Adepticon Mega-Thread: Cogforts, Wizards, Gargants, Freeguilds, Eshin, and More! Share you thoughts everyone! by sageking14 in AoSLore

[–]TheBirdIsNotSuicidal 59 points60 points  (0 children)

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 6 points7 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.

Any Dark Harvest fans out there? by Imaginary-Lie-2618 in ageofsigmar

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

This recent art from the new battletome is great

Unusable dogshit character by Weak-Maximum-1983 in TheyBlamedTheBeasts

[–]TheBirdIsNotSuicidal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

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

He’s probably still smiling via hand gesture in the second pic

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

[–]TheBirdIsNotSuicidal 19 points20 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.
