AoS Hothead Gamer Flips Out, Burns Warhammer Fantasy Army

All you guys out there blaming him, have you heard that GW actually apologised to him
since they saw his reaction?
Also, since he burned his army, GW has already provided him with a new one, and a member of the heavy metal
team as a slave, to paint it.
Anonymous sources confirm my suspicions of Age of Sigmar being cancelled within the day. They will probably hire him to help them make the new edition of warhammer.

All due to this man's noble sacrifice.

Seriously.
I want to say that this kind of moron, wouldn't exist if not for youtube, but it's not true. I've made the mistake of playing with guys, who would
crush/throw in the street their models if they missed their rolls. It's just bad behaviour, against an item not many have the money to buy, and it benefits no-one...save those who get views for their videos.
And that's why i refuse to watch it.

P.S.
Do you mean to tell me, he played so many games with those, had all these memories, and his first thought, was to burn them, because he didn't like the new ruleset? Probably, the worst kind of person.

 

I think at least @NIGHTBRINGER can appreciate this:

What is MRW?

 

Then we'll have to agree to disagree.

I believe they pretty much cut everything and started anew. They then filled AoS with a few good things and a whole bunch of fecal matter. After which point they were so busy patting themselves on the back that they completely forgot to include a balancing system of any sorts.

I'm personally hoping that AoS crashes and burns (although looking at the reception it has received I know that will not be the case). AoS has really fragmented the community. Players are moving in a bunch of different directions...

• hanging on to 8th
• moving on to AoS
• moving on to KoW
• moving on to other game systems entirely
• quitting

The unlikely event of AoS' utter and immediate collapse would be the best thing that could happen for the sustainability of 8th edition. Personally I don't care how many people play GW games, I only care about having as many players as possible stick with 8th edition. I know that it won't actually happen, but a man can dream can't he?

I agree that you can make a cheat/reference sheet that is only 10 pages in length, but that is because you have prior knowledge of the contents of the full rules and even then you will have to refer to the full BRB for clarification from time to time.

They say "A picture says a thousand words". That picture has said a thousand words with such eloquence that it has brought tears to my little lizard eyes. I think that summarizes the transition from 8th edition to AoS PERFECTLY! Can we sticky that picture somewhere? Thanks for the share!

 

As a former Art Major I feel like I should get this...but I always did poorly in Art History classes. ("MRW GW drops Age of Sigmar") and I still don't know what MRW is.

 

The one on the right was an attempted restoration of the original.

Art is hard.

MRW = My Reaction When.

Somebody please tell me that I'm not the youngest person (25) on this site... :x

 

I just think that picture is so fitting!

 

I laughed probably a bit more than I should have.

 

I love Whose Line Is It Anyway! Also, that picture is perfect!

 

Who needs formations in a wargame? How silly!

Alternate caption: "Tactical retreat? What's that?"

 

I can't help you with that last bit, Sorry.

But otherwise thanks for the clarification and background info.

Not a question to be asking Bretonnians.

 

OKAY, OKAY! Last one for me. Been fun, Nightbringer.


There's one around here somewhere!

 

Good timing... I was running out of decent ones to use. We'll have to wait a few weeks for the internet to replenish them.
