I'm getting some really strong Dark Souls vibes from this model. It's always a good thing and this is a beautiful sculpt. :blush:

I think Zak means when Free Peoples get model releases, and a proper battletome.  When humanity is brought into AoS properly

I'm perfectly fine with using historical minis for my Free Guild.

As for the Nighthaunt, I like that they got the whole ironic punishment I'm the afterlife theme.

As expected the announcement of the new Battletoms Nighthaunt and Stormcast (with limited edition options)

https://www.warhammer-community.com/2018/06/24/next-week-storms-and-spectres/



Also army specific endless spells!


Lady Olander:


Crawlocke the Jailor and his Chainghasts


Multipart kit for the Grimghast Reapers


New Lord for the Stormcast: Lord-Exorcist


and more dice, the Nighthaunt ones are even glow in the dark

So the new Hero's from the Nighthaunt are beasts! (not literally)

https://www.warhammer-community.com/2018/06/25/25th-june-heroes-of-the-nighthauntgw-homepage-post-4/

Lady Olynder is someone you don't want close to you with all that close by Mortal wound damage.. shoot it to death!


Kurdoss Valentian a combat beast but now with actual hitting power instead of Mortal wound output



Reikenor a wizard with some anti troops attacks

I really like the lizard monster mount, less interested in the weird Pegasus hybrid.

When the new starter set was announced I started out thinking I'd split the set with a buddy and get the stormcast, but I'm actually really getting into the Nighthaunt instead. I've always had a decent vampire counts army but never really got into them. I had them as an interesting bad guy and tended to use it as a loaner army. With the ghosties though I'm actually finding myself planning paint schemes, preemptivly writing fluff and naming characters, and imagining battles. I havnt done that for a starter set in awhile!

Looks like it might be next months big purchase instead of Forgebane.

Totally separate but I enjoyed this:



They've started something called The Hammerhal Herald which is suppose to be an In Universe newspaper. It very clearly Regimental Standard inspired, and while some of the jokes are a bit corny others are pretty good.

Just updated to the new Azyr. Like the new set up. No scroll for the high warden on a gryphon anymore and the open play lists restrict the units you can attach and amount of leaders are at 4. Not sure why this is as it’s supposed to be open and include everything. Also restricts allegiance and allies.

New ways to start (as we had before several sized startup sets coming)

https://www.warhammer-community.com/2018/07/01/coming-soon-great-new-ways-to-get-started/

Also with a small magazine on how to start with a unique model.. so yeah gonna get this one even though I don't really care for the magazine it self


The smallest sized set Storm Strike:


The medium sized set in 2 variants (without and with some paints and tools) Tempest of Souls:



Also the model content from the first starter set will be reboxed into seperate boxes so the models unique in them will be available. (Lord-Relictor, Bloodstoker and Korgorath)

Different sized starter sets is a great idea.
If I was still buying, I would buy the smallest.

An interesting mix in the made to order. Seeing the Tomb Kings gave me some happy feelings inside.

I love the style and grim feel of these new AoS releases. This game seems to become much more mature and dark. The new minis are great, especially the undead. Very, very nice job on GW's part.

Just asking again about the open play feature of Azyr. There are limitations to the number of leaders etc and alliance/ allies in full force. Thought the idea for open play was anything goes. I sent an email to gwapps so I’m sure I will find out what I’m doing wrong 😸

Well I'm curious on what answer you get, is it even with the latest update? Yesterday I believe I had an app update for it
