Poll: On a scale of 1 to 10, how would you rate Age of Sigmar?

On a scale of 1 to 10, where 1 is the worst and 10 is the best, how would you rate Age of Sigmar?

This should represent your overall feelings towards it (gaming, fluff, models, etc.).


Also, be sure to vote on the sister poll which rates the Warhammer 8th Edition...

Gave it a 7, as I consider it being inferior to 8th, but not a bad game.

 

I can't find any sign of anyone playing it or 8th edition anywhere near me.

Since all I have is theoryhammer I am not gonna pick a number. So, reserving judgement.

Also, what is there to compare it to?

It is unlike all previous versions of Warhammer and it is rather different from other Skirmish Games.

It is incomparable —just not necessarily in a good way.

 

I agree that there is no real direct comparison for it. The poll is more about your general thoughts and feelings about it. How much do you like or dislike it? How well does it fulfill your criteria for an "ideal" wargame?

 

Gave AoS an 8, 8th a generous 7 (could have gone for 6).

 

So about 1 week into voting we have the following results...

Age of Sigmar has an average rating of 4.0 (10 total votes)

Warhammer 8th edition has an average rating of 7.6 (13 total votes)


Let's get some more votes in for the polls!

 

I put in 7 as of right now though it may be a little early in aos's life to give a truly accurate representation a lot of these views will probably change given time.

You'll definitely need to post another poll a year or two down the line

 

At the very least, the rate of model release has been very rapid so far. It won't be that long until the game is well stocked with new models.

 

That's probably a good strategy, otherwise they never get finished.

 

Here are the updated poll results...

Age of Sigmar has an average rating of 4.9 (26 total votes)

Warhammer 8th edition has an average rating of 7.5 (20 total votes)


8th edition is still ahead by a significant margin, but the gap is closing.

Let's get some more votes in for the polls!

 

Well, hard to say. I think as far as a game it gets a 3. Not something I will find myself playing often. And not something I think I'll enjoy. I'll be enjoying the company and the hobby, not the game. Fluff is a 5 since I dislike what has become of the space lizards. As far as models, I'm going to give it a straight 10. Because I do like the sigmar marines. Sure they look like 40k rip offs, but heavily plated knights with huge weapons are more than welcome and relatively lacking in WHFB. GW human/elf races are severely lacking in looks imo. And the rate at which models are being released is fantastic.

That puts me at a 6. Wow. I didn't see that coming. Only 2 points lower than my 8th rating.

 

Such is the allure of Chaos!

 

I don't play AoS so I can't help there. For 8th edition, you can't go wrong with some chariots and Skullcrushers. I personally love the hellcannon, but many do not. The chimera can also be a very potent addition.

For a Khrone theme, you pretty much can't do better than Skullcrushers... they are the epitome of Khorne.

(Long live Tzeentch )

 

I think you know what I voted @NIGHTBRINGER ...

 

I voted it a 7 because I like the game and the core rules, but there are so many glaring balance issues and over-the-top units as @Killer Angel said.
