Done.

Some of the questions are rather hard to answer if you don't play their currently promoted games, but I did let them know I would like them to re-release their classic games and their old boxed sets.
The only good thing about 7th ed heads is that they look particularly inbred and superstitious which is perfect for Stirlanders

I did it yesterday or the day before. Even as a supporter of age of sigmar, any of the fill in the blank spots made sure to mention Fantasy and the other old specialist games.

Done. Thanks for that. I was pretty genuine. Will be curious to see what happens next.

Thing is, I think AoS has done a lot of things well:
- Supported well
- some fresh fluff and models (khardon overlords, sylvaneth bugs)
- some simplification of factions

I just hate:
- how complicated they made it to transition
- the cost of new models
- some of the silly fluff around realms
- the simplification of the rules
- bunches of new special rules
- stupid IP version names of things
- no more ranked combat (circle bases)

There was actually a question (maybe 2) where Fantasy Battles was one of the options. I think it was something about what books or lore do you read the most of. There was definitely and actual option for Fantasy plus AoS in there.

I'm probably going to upset you all.  As games, I'd play AoS over WFB any day, and I've been doing this since 3rd ed.  When it came to favourite fiction setting though, I picked The Old World over the Mortal Realms.  Though the rumoured stuff Black Library are coming up, and Cubicle 7 with the RPG for AoS looks like next year will start to really establish itself as a setting, but I would happily read any new fiction set in the World That Was

I would too. Not to mention that AoS does have a better and clearer mechanic. Not that I preffer it, over WFB, especially 6th edition.

C.L. Werner, when I interviewd him, said that before normal people begun to appear in Mortal Reams, he thought of AoS as a very shallow setting. This coming from an actual BL author. :biggriin:

I think he's doing an Order of Azyr (Witch Hunters) series, which should begin to come out next year, which I'm really looking forward to.

I’ve only played since 6th ed but I really like the AoS format. I absolutely loved the old world  BL work and would still buy books if they were written. But I like the mortal realms stuff too. I’ve read everything except the major chaos and death books and as they progress , so does the fluff. The last 2 books I particularly enjoyed the expanding overlord stuff and as Xath says, cl Werner just takes it further.
I can’t say at this point which I like more. So much of the old world style has crept through in the new settings. The new dwarves are exactly like the old with more tech.

Yeah and they're supposed to be a complete different thing to your "standard" Witch Hunters too!

I'll like AoS and its setting when I'll plant rusty nails on my head like Snorri :biggriin:
Mortal Realm was a name for the World of Warhammer which the new game shamelessy pillaged

the RPG of the new setting will be like Planescape wih Warhammer characters and wannabe spacemarines.
