Re: Wil's Autumn Wood Elf Army Update Handmainden + terrain

Well done!

Fantastic unit tray.
Is the handmaiden going to be an Eternal Guard Champion? or a Hero model?

Re: Army of Modryn - 2500

Great ideas, Elbereth, I'll be looking forward to see how they come out.

Are you planning on making Wychwethyl a mage as well? If so, how do you plan to balance out having two mages using the lore of shadow?

Re: Round Robin Hammer

I've done something similar in the past (players wrote their opponent's army list with the intention of making the worst possible list, it was really fun and rather instructive) so the part about do I write a competitive list or a nonsense list is intentionally left vague. The whole idea is that mos...

Round Robin Hammer

So as a sendoff to 8th edition, I am trying to organize a gaming event of sorts. Each round will go as follows: 1) Each player puts a piece of paper with the army they want to play into a hat. 2) Each player draws an army and borrows the army book of that army. 3) Each player has 20 minutes to write...

Re: "Age of Sigmar" speculations

1) I really like the MSU option. I'll like it better if we get the 7th edition style skirmishers rather than the 8th edition variety though. 2) I don't really care about this one except for that GW needs to be very careful to avoid the 'Chainmail Bikini' syndrome. 3) I haven't heard much about how t...

If you can't change your list, then I'm guessing he can't change his list either, do you know anything about it? Waywatchers will take care of Mournfangs. Beware of any Ogre wizards with a hellheart, I believe it's range is 24". I would go with the Lore of Life personally, but you have some fle...

Re: Ninth Edition - End Times for real?

Great question.

8th Edition had great psychology rules, I'll be sorry to leave those behind.
The most recent Skaven Army Book as well, no tears will be shed.

Re: Ninth Edition - End Times for real?

Age of Sigmar is a new Fantasy system that will support all GW Fantasy models currently sold by GW. It will continue the narrative where the End Times Books left off. It is not Warhammer 9th Edition. http://natfka.blogspot.com/2015/06/dark-angels-additional-releases-and-age.html All rumors taken wi...

Re: Sisters of the thorn

It seems like just about every list I see on here has a Spellweaver of some variety leading their army. Would SotT provide enough magical firepower to make an effective magic phase with 2 units of SotT and a Lv 2 Singer?

Why is it that GW is so damned eager to bang on about "you can still use your old models"? Because if it became known that all of the huge armies that people had amassed were now just expensive piles of plastic, then GW would rightly fear that players would use their piles of plastic to g...

Re: Ninth Edition - End Times for real?

I think the core models will stay the same, it doesn't make sense to pay shipping to ship the models back and recast them (or sell them via internet direct only). However, I strongly believe some of the big unique End Times models will be written out of the game. Special Event specific models are bo...

Agreed. It severely complicates the buying process for those of us who have to carefully budget money, if only because it gives us more time to talk ourselves out of a purchase.

On the assumption that Age of Sigmar is either a Warhammer-Lite intro version or a pared down ruleset geared towards skirmish games, the rumors seem to indicate that the July 11 release date will be a limited release and that a full release of remaining army books/rule books will come a bit later.
