This just popped up on GW's official AoS page:

Sounds like a rules rewrite with the addition of campaign and tournament systems.

Shieldwolf makes two eagles, I got them in the kickstarter last year and they're decent. You'd need to cut them off the bases but they're resin so it shouldn't be too hard. Size is comparable to the GW eagles. http://www.shieldwolfminiatures.com/index.php/index.php?dispatch=products.view&product...

Questions: 1) Do you think I ought to lose the Sisters of Avelorn (SA) in favour of one extra RBT? 2) I've added some silver helms and white lions by losing one regiment of reavers. 3) I am planning to use lore of light on both mages... However I'm wondering whether I would missing out on important...

Judging by my efforts the past half hour it's a good thing I'm not a detective. But I'll guess azur did mine?

I finally got around to taking pics of my present! This is a limited edition skaven warlord from Gamesday 2011, which I really prefer over the current plastic model. I'm very happy with him, so many thanks to my secret santa! http://i746.photobucket.com/albums/xx110/greenwarriorofdagobah/Skaven/Ulth...

I came into the theater with pretty low expectations, came out thinking "well at least the soundtracks was ok" :| This. In a vacuum the movie was your typical blockbuster action flick with acceptable acting and gratuitous 'splosions, but... <rant> Being a star wars nerd I don't like what ...

Also I have received my gift, as soon as I get some pics taken I'll put them up.

Thanks for the heads up, I copied my reply below if anyone here is wondering: The sculpts are lower quality than GW has spoiled us with, but they aren't too bad. Putting them together I felt the detail wasn't very good and they would be hard to paint but once I put brush to model the details came ou...

Oh, if my secret Santa has pictures of my gift by all means post them so every1 can be jealous! As always my pics came out overexposed so the colors are a bit too rich and the details don't come through quite right. I really ought to get a light box and learn how to do the whole camera thing. Anywa...

Mine was delivered a week ago, I'm hoping he posts some pics before I leave for vacation on Monday!

I've finished my project and just got back from the post office. Here's hoping it survives the trip!

I'm nearly done, just few odds and ends to finish up and the basing. Should be completed by the weekend.

My project is assembled, I still need to fill a gap or two and sort out the basing but I should have it primed this weekend.

I'm currently waiting for a package to arrive, hopefully I'll be able to start my project next weekend.

I have chosen my project, need to get a few things off my table first but should be able to start on it in a few weeks.

Do you have any other models available? A RBT or two is always useful, as are eagles. With what you've been using so far I'd probably take the two blocks of seaguard, the swordmasters, BSB on foot, reavers, and use the archmage model as a loremaster. Loremasters are amazing and I recommend the earth...

someone in the store claimed that the attacking player decides on how to allocate the wounds. It's probably more accurate to say the attacking player allocates attacks . The way I see it, warmachine warscrolls (RBT, hellcannon, etc.) consist of a unit of one warmachine and a unit of crew. The two u...

Do you find it's different compared to 8th ed? The customizability I mean, not the game. In some ways I think it is. I certainly could have done a variety of things with 8th, but never did. Why not? Was it because the book scenarios railroaded my way of thinking about the game? Or that eight editio...

I'm sure AoS will have its fans and I'm keen to learn who, what they like about it and why? For me AoS is a "tool set" rather than a "rule set." I have a turn order and a basic framework describing how to move and fight with my models, and the rest is at my discretion. I can cho...

Thanks for the feedback, I'll give it a tweak and see how it looks. I printed them out for the first time today and found the text almost too small, so I'll be making that larger as well. Watch for an updated set in the next few days.

I'm still in the dark ages when it comes to mobile technology, flip phones don't run apps so well.

Does anyone else find the GW warscrolls to be inconveniently large? I've only played a few games, but it seems my deployment zone becomes strewn about with papers so I can keep track of what things do. I found myself wanting a concise reference that I could easily keep on the table. So I poked aroun...

I'm in. I have three armies: Declining HE, lots of leather and steel with province appropriate accents/cloth/streamers, any color except white. I could use a foot or mounted mage or a handmaiden, or even a phoenix if santa is feeling especially giving this year! Classic OK, grey skin, blue pants, ru...

I buy precut sticky backed magnetic base bottoms from litko , reasonably priced and already cut to 20mm, 25x50, etc. They aren't as strong as the rare earth magnets but I can put a plastic model to vertical sheet metal and they will stick. I wouldn't trust it vertically in the car but flat in the bo...

I'd be up for it.

Mindrazor.

1a) Yes. But why you would I have no idea. You would lose all the impact hits from back rank chariots.

1b) No. The unit can't have a musician, so no swift reforming.

2) Yes and yes.

3) No. You could take a stubborn crown character in a chariot, but it wouldn't be able to join the unit.

Well I wrote up a decent wall of text and then the interwebz ate it. Here's the short version, that I can remember. I still recommend a light council. You can drop the extra points of core, a few command upgrades, a white lion or two and some of the gear on the BSB (since he will be hiding in the ar...

So as best I can tell, you're going to need a cannon. The troop type is chariot, and being a character mount we treat it like a ridden monster. Normally ridden monsters can't join units, but the cauldron is an exception. Characters in units can't be singled out (unless you have sniper which we don't...

I don't have my books handy right now, but I'm pretty sure you can pick out a model if it's not the same unit type. So cavalry attached to infantry unit, monstrous cavalry in cavalry, etc. Also I think there might be a blurb in the skaven book about shooting at the bell/furnace, not sure if the DE b...
