    Meh, I found those rules to still be very simple/straightforward.

    Dunno the rules for 40k apart from that a look out sir rule exists and there is some semblance of logic with shooting the nearest guys when shooting at a squad.

    So five videos so far:
    ...three floating zombies
    ...one streaking comet
    ...a crumbly old statue
    ...a rotting wooden ship
    ...and a raven in a foul swamp.

    :shifty: There's ^ a song in this somewhere...

    It is a boxed game with an asylum, a graveyard, an abandoned ship (and a bunch of other creep-sational schtick nicked from Malifaux). Sigmar is there. Locked away. Having a fever dream.

    AOS HAS BEEN AND IS NOTHING BUT SIGMAR'S FEVER DREAM...:eek:...!!! :woot:

    (It's all been a dream @NIGHTBRINGER a horrid, horrid dream. :couchpotato: :smuggrin: )

    Meh there's already 3 boxed games with warhammer quest, that one boxed game with the 4 khorne champions & shadespire, and shadespire isn't even all that old. I'd hope that another boxed game isn't the only thing. That'd be a bit of a let down given the amount of build up.


    Surrender to madness, accept your fate, this is no nightmare it is a reality you shall never escape :p

    My fate is not dictated by the whims of GW or those who so easily surrender to GW.

    If it's AoS time, that clock should be on 2 minutes to midnight. ;):p

    Agreed - I'm still waiting for the next Fyreslayers update where they bring Ungrim Ironfist back on a giant Magmadroth, give Fyreslayers a more competitive Battletome with warscroll cards and give the sons of Grimnir some more different units... :oldman:

    Except that the Empire State Trooper minis look really REALLY ugly...

    Fyreslayers are even better - the Magmadroth deals out a tonne of mortal wounds on anything that comes close, their basic troops have saves against mortal wounds and they have characters that can cater for loads of different jobs.

    Fyreslayers FTW, and out with SCE and Sylvaneth who get all the glory!

    They released another video, showing the final hero. Or course it's Stormcast.
    And I keep picking out bits again, giving myself false hope, I saw one of the Seraphon symbols scribbled on the paper, which is also scribbled out. One of the unused ones, it's like an arrow shape and how it's an observatory and all. I should stop digging into things, I have people all like 'it means nothing' but I like to fish for little bits of interesting notes.

    I am honest I like how they done him, everyone else is freaking out elsewhere. He looks fitting to his role

    Update on arrow: My friend mentioned it could be one of the eight lore's of magic symbol. Then what's it doing hanging out on the Seraphon constellation. I don't know anymore :oops:

    The last hero for Malign Portens has been revealed, and "sound the trumpets" it's another freaking Stormcast

    [​IMG]

    Apparently Bob the builder has found his way into AoS and grown a surprisingly sweet beard.

    Oh... yay.... another stormcast. I mean I'm not surprised but I'd be nice to other order factions between the constant stormcast releases

    sigh, that makes what, stormforged #33? It's getting a tad ridiculous.. there's "factions" that have less than 10 models (clan pestilence has a tome but only a whopping 6 models...). Do half the factions literally not sell at all or something?

    Y'all are starting sound like a 40K board. "Really?! Another Space Marine release? When do the xenos get anything?" ;-)

    Interesting model. If they actually give him the engineer key word, I may add him into my Free Peoples based Order army as a replacement for the gun master. Depends on points, but he may be a bit more survivable and have a bit more utility. I'll probably get all the heroes irregardless. They'll be a fun one off project if nothing else.
