So with the new General's Hanbook out, the whole summer campaign, I thought I'd actually get into Age of Sigmar, and have started to build Skaven.

There's a 1500 point tournament coming up soon...

WOWZERS HE'S AMAZING! And that griffon pet is cute! And, one would assume, deadly.

He's also the first guy we've seen WITHOUT a hammer (for CQC), which is really interesting.

Wonder if this Liberators box will have the option for the bow-and-arrow, or just be 5 or 10 of the starter set guys (at which, at that price, why not buy another starter?) Also gonna be an...

You also have to note that all the units included in the Starter Set are pretty basic, made mostly to help you learn the game. Plenty of the older units have more, an more complex, rules. I assume we...

Correct me if I' wrong, as I haven't read he rules in a long time, but ATSKNF also allows you to regroup even when the unit would normally not be able to, right? If so, I'd add the clause:...

Yeah...my thoughts on their "Age of Sigmar" release schedule is this:

Week 1: Starter Box (obviously...).
Week 2: Terrain (this has been confirmed...).
Week 3: Additional units for Starter Box...

New models? Not bad. I'm liking the new Stormcasts. That paint scheme just makes them look horrendous...

I'm personally waiting to see what the new Lizardmen/Seraphon models are gonna look like. I...

The more I see, model-wise, the more pleased I am with these releases. I really like the potential of some of this new terrain for LoTR, as it seams more designed for skirmish games then the old...

Actually, you have to finish a charge withing 1/2" of an enemy, so yes, its a 9" charge. The 3" thing is talking about units that moved/were already in 3" of an enemy; they count as being engaged too.

Reading the game rules and the Thunderstorms Brotherhood, there's nothing preventing you from charging the turn you come down through Lightning Strike. Sure, its a 9"+ charge, but you can technically...

I was thinking the same thing. In fact, if you look at the leaked pics, both sides have 6 units. The Stormcast Eternals have their two units of Stormcast warriors, the heavy-weapons guys, and the...

Yeah I feel the same way. If you were to take out some of the more "complex" rules in LoTR, shorten the sentences, and simplify the language, you could probably fit all its rules on 10 or less pages,...

All I'll say about the rules is...interesting. I like how simple they are, and that will certainly help with getting into the game...but the lack of complexity and tactics kind of annoys me. It looks...

Here's my advice:

Research. Research. Research.

I got into 40k about 7 years ago. I started with Necrons. I played them, a lot, and ammased quite the collection. But as I played them I slowly...

Don't worry, you'll get your new dex soon, so the rumors say. Then we shall see who is better or worse.

Yeah, plenty if these need large games for full effect. Only the Khorne Berzerkers in Pod can really be used in a normal game, and will still run you a pretty penny when it comes to points.

CAIN FOR THE WIN! Those books are my personal favorite if the Black Library stuff I've read.

Can't say I've read and of McNiel's stuff, but I plan to get through some of it.

36 base tactical objectives, 6 swaps...yeah that leaves 4 unaccounted for. The idea of special swaps depending on chapter tactics could explain the excess. We'll see what it is...

Now get those...

If I remember correctly, the limited edition cedecies have a full deck of tactical objective cards, not just the swap outs.

A little late, but here I go...

HQ is good, really good. Pask in a Punisher is beast. And the Executioner works well as a second tank.

Platoon...ummm...Platoons really like to be spammed, and...

And yet I can go and look at the products of dozens of other companies, who offer just as detailed models, in metal or resin (which is generally more expensive then plastic), that they only expect...

That and the upgrade kit had me hooked. Sadly, I'm determined to finish my Skitarii and my Angmar first...alas, the Dark Angels will have to wait.

The main problem with your statement is that the single-pose models are significantly more expensive then their more pose-able counterparts, so if the molds cost less, then the prices aren't showing...

Oops...smiley didn't appear on my phone when I replied to him. Now that I see it, yes, it is apparent that he is sarcastic. Still, what I said stands; we now definitely know Lizzie's won't be...

Not necessarily. It says the Lizardmen escaped destruction, and asks if anyone else did as well. Not so sure that means they are gone. In fact, it almost confirms they aren't gone, because they are...
