Chariots are very strong in Fantasy because they are immune to Killing Blows (can't be one shot by a weapon/character/unit with the Killing Blow special rule).
Do chariots make you immune to one shot special weapons/situations in AoS too?

I think the main gimmick of chariots and the like in aos is that they're (more easily) able to power through and move through hostile units that would usually force them to engage and thus prevent them from moving.
>>97494648
Kino idea
I've seen a fair few idk chariot conversions around (picrel), it seems like a concept that speaks to people. Gw would rather give them 2 extra characters and a spell though.

What do you think the Secret Level AoS episode will be about?
If they stick with the thing that it has to be connected to a video game we're stuck with Realms of Ruin, and by that Stormcast vs Tzeench/Kruleboys/Nighthaunt.

But I hope they are liberal in their connection to games and consider the tabletop to be game enough, and as such have free reigns to do something non stormie focused

>>97494797
Basically guaranteed to be Stormcast by mandate. But if has to be them, it’d be cool to see something for Gardus or Tornus.

GW's decisions frequently defy any conventional understanding. It's why after a couple of years everyone inevitably throws "what makes sense to do" out the window for their predictions and just go with whatever the rumors are.

>Chariots don't really fit seraphon
There are two arguments for seraphon chariots:
one of their warrior gods was said to ride on a chariot
the ancient aliens theme they have going on rests on a book literally called chariots of the gods

in both cases instead of a normal chariot with wheels and pulled by beasts it would have to be some magitech platform, maybe pulled by podracer engines of some kind, like a melee version of the starseer throne for a saurus champion

But at that point I dunno if it'd still count, since it's just big monster with platform on it's back not a chariot.

I don't see GW giving KO a creature pulled chariot, if they ever get any creatures at all so I would imagine that a KO chariot would probably look like a star wars pod racer. Small cockpit with a baloon pulled by two big turbine engines. The average movement with KO is already 12 inches so it's funny to imagine them putting this thing out with like 3 health, 18 inch move and probably a bombing ability like the big boats already have.

>>97494764

>>97496051

>>97494797
>what do you think secret level AoS episode will be about
>What I want
One of the Order factions facing off with FEC, mostly from the FEC perspective

Something centered around the stormcucks, probably Neave because they need to clear out the warehouse of those shitty models. I'm sure much like the Sigmar's Toll show it's going to feature two characters talking to each other on a boring background explaining background lore for 80% of it befrore we get a short fight scene and some awful stinger from a stormcast about it being the Age of Sigmar™, buy the models now.

I except soulblight to be featured in the animation. I can literally see a vampire in it at least getting a shoutout.

>>97496062
Ossiarchs are full of missed opportunities.

>>97494857
Man that thing is just awful to look at.

Always funny when someone appears to be able to paint but has no idea how to make something look good.

>>97496045
As someone getting into Tzeentch, I'm very mixed on it. On one hand, the new fate points are strictly worse than fate dice in almost every way. On the other hand, the ability to swap out units once per turn could be really spicy. No monster limitation means you can't save Kairos but I could still see this being pretty good. Waiting to see the updated battletome and warscrolls to see how good it'll end up being.

>>97495443
Yeah... Chariots could fit a sort of hero of olde, Green Knight, kind of thing but despite the Arthurian motifs historically fitting chariots it's the anachronistic application of 14th century aesthetics that don't... So maybe it'd make sense? Idk

I wouldn't want to see them get real chariots, but ya a giant Old One artifact/mobile temple would be sick. Like a giant version of an Engine of the Gods or a mini pyramid towed by a couple of mid size dinos.

>>97496051
If its a podracer, then it should also have a special rule that when it does it moves X amount of inches in one direction and deals damage to everything it passes through (with the movement immediately ending if it passes through a terrain feature or monster, dealing extra damage to that.)

>If your army would get a/another chariot, what would it look like? Creature pulling it? Loadout?

SCE: Already has one. I guess theoretically they could get a heavier one, more melee-focused, maybe pulled by some sort of drake-like creature.

COS: Probably just a wood & wrought-iron thing pulled by horses, but I think if they do end up bringing in halflings, a small chariot pulled by, like, war-roosters and crewed by halfling archers would be fun.

OWC: Mostly play Kruleboyz and chariots are sort of antithetical to swamp warfare. It'd probably be a model for Ironjawz and would be some hulking, ramshackle thing pulled by pigs, designed more for slamming directly into the enemy.

Skaven: RAT CHARIOT WITH LIGHTNING GUN

>>97497092
You say chairots are antithetical to swamp warfare, but the britons were notorious for being the last group of peoples in the west to use the damn things. It could also be designed to work on softer ground, so something a bit more like a dogsled or airboat, slides on the ground rather than rolls.

>>97497129
Swamp skiff for kruleboyz. With a repeating ballista bolted on top.

Always strange to see that some people dont understand that OBR is a disciplined military first and a freakshow second.

>>97497494
Like a bunch of rednecks in a hovercraft tearing through the swamps and shooting feral hogs with a shotgun.

>>97497129
True, but the Britons mostly used their chariots on open ground. Plus, the swamps the Kruleboyz are in are less like the humid marshes of Britain and seem more like the thick swamps & bayous of the American Gulf Coast.

I don't think DoK should get a chariot. The roster has no need for something like that, and lorewise it doesnt make sense. The Khainites love getting into battle and reveling in the blood of their enemies, a chariot defeats that purpose.

Hence why I suggested a sled/hovercraft like alternative. More evenly distributed weight so it can slide on soft ground and float on water if need be. Lets them outmanuver their enemies even more effectively in the swampy terrain, and can be used to transport people they capture.

>>97497835
Honestly, I think that they should just add all the neat white dwarf/warcom mini game modes to the core rulebook. Just extra shit for you to do with your minis. Kill team in 40k used to be like that, before they killed it/brought it back as its own thing.

>>97498003
the white dwarf is handled by a different team compared to the one that handles rulebooks writing

it's a terrible system

>>97497677
And a grot operating a rotating magazine for the ballista, like a primitive gatling gun. Not terribly accurate or long range, but the kruleboyz don't care because it shoots lots and they don't really have to do much except sit back and perforate gits.

second Ed Slaanesh due to summoning.

>>97498970
tie between slaanesh in 2nd or ogres in 1st.

>>97498973
Can I just say DoK but only when Morathi is there.

>>97498978
Are ogre's any good nowadays? I feel like I have yet to see anyone talk about how they play, seen a couple anons post em here but not actually what the faction does.

>>97498854
wow, only 1 unique lore compared to the empire!

This is a chariot

>>97499058
That’s a boat.

>>97499065
this isn't the beach, this is a battlefield

>>97499081
His sense of direction, or utter absence thereof, doesn't change what vehicle he's currently in. Though it might perhaps explain it, if he intended to go in a chariot but found himself at the pier instead.

>>97499096
>doesn't change what vehicle he's currently in
yes, it does, a boat is only a boat if it's on water, if it goes underwater then it's a uboot, and if it goes above then it's an abbot, but this is only half of an abbot, so it's a halfbot, not a boat

>>97499065
Sir, this is Wendy's

>>97498993
Are you trying to say Empire wizards superior to jeets as well?

>>97499118
Are you trying to speak English?

>>97499126
Jeet is the new buzzword for everything here now

>>97499183
I thought that was slop

>>97499187
Slop is on the way out

>>97499193
It had a good run

>>97499187
>>97499193

It's spelled sloop

if you were forced to write a black library book, who would it be about? and what would the plot be?

>>97499183
>>97499187
Jeet is a slur against indians, the guy is probably underage and can't help but just spout whatever he last read without understanding what it means

>>97499366
Three books, first one about a stormcast questor who through an oracle or something get to know his brothers still walk the realms and set out to find them.

Second about an OBR commander invading a human country, mostly about the battle, strategy, tactics and combat scenes, but also more mellow parts with some introspective bits where the various souls meshed together in him converse about their situation.

And the third one about a chaos warrior and his warband as they are hunting down stormcast as an act of vengeance for getting left behind all those years ago.

And these three main characters will turn out to be the three brothers, you get the backstory as well as the part where they meet in the final book. Until then there are no real clues they are connected.

Yeah I’m not a fan of how these fate points work. You’ll only see use of them if you’re actively failing in the game. It feels really shit to not get to use your mechanic properly if you’re winning.
A better way to do it would be to get 1 point for a positive action, and 2 for a negative.
It ESPECIALLLY sucks since it’s encouraging you to spend multiple fate points in one go

Is there anything noteworthy lore wise happening in 4th battletomes? I tuned out after reading Skaven and SCE and basically getting nothin

>>97499564
Probably heroes and spells and artifacts that generate points as well.

>>97499637
I stg if Kairos is required to generate these properly

>>97499366
A meta t-"""sports""" drama

>>97498973
2nd FEC where the terrorgheist was given like 10 CP was also pretty bullshit.
Honestly 2nd had a lot of cancer.
4th early Night haunt was pretty cancerous.
> You attack and do nothing
> Now I kill you

>>97495423
He's right though. Is this thread unironically full of sigmarxism types? Wasn't it enough that people laughed at the nuchaos warriors with the fat black women barbarians?

>>97495361
>failed replacement for Fantasy
damn, no need to shit on TOW like that

>>97494789
Model kit production allocation does not necessarily line up with needs or even wants of factions. Nobody likes fyerslayers so no units, everyone likes vampires so 10 new soulblight things. Redundant units and anemic factions both happen because "this is how many model kits you must have in this release wave".

>>97498406
>aping items directly from TOW
Lmao why is the AoS team pivoting so hard into trying to be Fantasy AFTER Fantasy relaunched?

>>97499366
I've had a couple, a story of enslaved duardain brothers fighting for their survival in the all points, A story of a bounty hunter trying to make sense of ghur, an exploration of a dude whose been reincarnated into shyish and exploring other lost souls.

I have more in my pocket but I kinda wanna temper them to see how 5ths narrative drops.

>>97499828
um actually its stealing from pathfinder.

But this way you can say "just as planned" when you're getting tabled and they can't say that you're coping

>>97499854
You have the workings of a trogg up there in your noggin.

>trolls have been associated with regeneration since god knows how long
>uhm actually it's stealing from wfb
go finish your tww campaign

>>97495623
I like the reapers but they definitely should have been freakier, most of the units I'm fine being more normal but a sneaky hivemind assasin troupe should have a little more going on visually imo

>>97499873
I mean. It’s directly copying TOW again. Why is that a bad thing to you guys though? Half the armies in AoS are a single unit from Fantasy expanded to be its own range. AoS as an IP is built on aping concepts from the Fantasy IP and trying to Frankenstein them with their new and armies.

>>97499913
trying too hard

>>97499828
This may surprise you but aos is actually a sequel to warhammer fantasy. This comes as a shock to many, since AoS' eponymous character, Sigmar, famously bears no resemblance to any characters from fantasy.

Need a night haunt gf.

>>97499828
That's for Darkwater though.
It's not AoS, it's a board game

>>97499700
Every book so far has doubled down on 'you MUST take the huge named character' (Teclis as well) so assume he will be mandatory.
Just like Katakros will be mandatory (again)... And the new female named ogre will be mandatory.

>>97500065
Khadrons didn’t. Neither did BOK.

>>97495623
The fluff says the dude is on punishment detail for failure so I'm not sure how the concept would work as a sole character. The model is in charge of the dogs and bat things because he fucked up, and the two tall dudes are literally minders relaying info directly to the dudes in charge (not the centaur man). Centaur dude is such a fuck up he is only response for wrangling the dogs and bats. He is lucky he wasn't turned into a death rider mount (which happens to Lieges who REALLY fuck up)

>>97500084
Scarryboi is in a lot of lists.
KO doesn't have a huge 170 dollar hero so they got to avoid the tax. Just wait until they get one.

>>97500065
This post reeks of nogames.

Many years ago, this thread created a part of a realm where everyone with yourdudes got to add their kingdom/camp/country/warband/region etc.
And we did some common worldbuilding around it.
What happened to that? And also, anyone up for trying something like that again? Was a very cozy part of /aosg/ whilst it was active

>>97500065
Slaves to Darkness didn't (Archaon is far from auto-take), Maggotkin didn't, KO didn't, Warclans didn't, Nagash is almost never auto-take in any edition of AoS, etc

Stormcast love taking that named dragon because he's the only Wizard (2) in the entire book because the rest got squatted

>>97500362
It worked fine until mydudes took everyone over and won

>>97498104
That's more of a howdah, let's be honest.

Pray for me, for tomorrow I build Plague Drones. The war of fiddly shit and flying stand magnetisation begins at dawn.

No, that's Chowder and it's been off the air for 15 years now. A howdah like you'd put on an elephant.

Ogornon here,

Been playing them in a PtG as my first go with them officially and I can (hopefully) sum it up well:

You're very swingy, but your damage is always going to overkill most things but fuckhuge monsters and 40-man bricks. Your saves are useless, but when a model has 4 Wounds and you can heal them often (Feast on Flesh, Greedy Gluttons formation, and Spells/Mawpot)

Gluttons and Ironguts carry the Gutbusters, and you're always going to surprise people with how fast you can be. Ever seen a fat motherfucker run 13", then nail a charge, do 2+ MD, then 50/50 between 20 and 0 dmg? Leadbelchers are cool, but have been useless for shooting. I had a Tyrant and a 4-man Irongut unit cut through about 80% of a Skaven army in 2 rounds with only a 40-man rat brick surviving more than a single fight phase.

You basically play a bunch of heat-seeking missiles. You play carefully until you can charge in and 1-shot them because the alternative is rend 1/2 turning you into a bunch of paste.

It's honestly a fun army if you don't mind gambling on a 4+ to Hit without support.

Pro-tip:
>12-man Glutton brick (4 attacks per, +1 for Champion) for 49 hits
>Slaughtermaster (Great Cauldron - Spinemarrow for +1 Attacks on unit of choice)
>Cast Bloodfeast on Gluttons (+1 Attacks)
>nuke something with 12 fat retards swinging 73 times because they're R1, D2

>find shitty hole-in-the-wall hobby store with the smallest, saddest warhammer section ever
>clearly nobody gives a shit about it and they want to stop stocking it so everything is 20% off
>surely nothing good, right?
>...they had two othar half-kings
oh my god I scored

>>97500432
Slaves still have Belacuck

I'm heading to a couple of not-so-local stores tomorrow while I'm in the area for work. Anons want me to pick anything up for (you)?
