Aww man, that really brought me down. They have automatic weapons?
I am interested in the bits however. I am thinking I can make some pretty darn good Blood Bowl conversions with the leftovers. Oh the struggles of being a gamer.
I'd like to try to get a box of this guys and try to clip the pistol's limbs and glue them back horizontally.
You could look out for bits on Amazon and eBay. Or from a local player who could give you his/her leftovers.
I think they are pretty awesome. Gives more conversion options between 40k and AoS. And the bloodbowl possibilities. Grappling hooks and big armour with capes, could make a sweet batman family or justice league stormcast army. Or Avengers if you're a marvel guy.
The Old Ones have blessed your mind with creativity, venerable skink priest.
It may be, but the net worth of Stomcast I quickly outweightin every other faction, on top of the Sogmarines dominating th face and fill-in release schedule. They've gotten 3 Battletomes while other armies in need of ONE still languish in their post End Times state. It's frustrating.
Not at all. The first two SE Battletomes (the second one exclusively featured Dracoths and Stardrakes, so it was more of an expansion) are by now obsolete, considering how this new Battletome includes every previous unit, including the Lord-Veritant, who was a sudden release, the new models and features new abilities, artifacts and prayers (Lightning Strike is now a baseline ability for every Stormcast), Path to Glory rules and pitched battle profiles.
Better to update the older Battletomes now with instead letting them getting older and unfitting as more are released.
Of course, they also have to update the Seraphon Battletome this year.
I've played Tyranids for about seven years and have about a half year old Genecult army. Yeah, I don't like seeing AoS follow the road 40k is on.
Actually 40K is following the AoS road, as it looks that 40K will get Open Play rules in the next Edition.
Waiting for years to release and update has been the GW thing as a whole.
i can't argue the fact that the Sigmarines are getting too much love, but there was that point in WFB that felt like every other release was an Orc Goblin release.
Perhaps it's a good with the bad scenario? Lower prices, better models but we have to deal with the "flagship" army getting continuous updates?
I'll be perfectly honest, I'm not pleased if that is the situation. One of the things that does annoy me with 40k is the constant Space Marine releases. I also won't hide my disappointment that we are missing out on finding out how elves will fit in. The only two we've gotten are for Silver Tower after all.
Truth be told, while the Stormcast Eternals are the poster boys and are almost everywhere on the lore, they are not getting that much love.
Between AoS launch and the 2017 Battletome, they only got 2 new sprues in the form of the Stardrakes and Dracoths, an exclusive Battletome for those two, and a recycled sprue for the Lord-Veritant.
They have lots of heroes and subassemblies, but they haven't overwhelmed the AoS releases yet.
Then they got an update not long after that many DE players lament greatly. Oh th tears.
But, I can take a few small stormcast releases, as long as other armies get some good love. Duardin and Aelves need is so bad.
Honestly, if they need filler releases, they should update old Battletomes to the current standard. Don't even do model releases, just update times, release cards and token sets.
Again, this is the first actual big Stormcast release, but yes, if they are going to update an older Battletome, they have to update them all.
I think that they could release an updated Battletome for a filler release too, but this can be a good sign:
While neither the Beastclaw Raiders or Bonesplitterz got new models on their releases, the Sylvaneth, Disciples of Tzeentch and now Stormcasts got new models. This could mean that we can expect to see new models when other smaller factions get their own releases.
You seem to have it wackbards...
