The Shrine to Lost Armies

You are correct, the steampunk is overblown

 

Not to worry...

Tomb Kings > Skaven > High Elves


Unless of course we are talking about 8th edition power levels, in which case we have: High Elves >>> Skaven >>>>>>>>>Tomb Kings

 

But if we are talking rule of cool..... TK all the WAY

 

Indeed... the rule of cool is definitely: TK > Skaven > High Elves

 

Interesting thought:

Vsmps main spell is invocation of nehek

Nehekhara means : great land

Judging by and applying modern grammatical structure, "hara" means great in that instance.

So vampa are casting an invocation of the land

 

Boo. Did you have the skeleton horde set too?

 

I've been looking for skeleton horde boxes lol

Yeah, was thinking of trying to make a Dispossessed army, get my hands on some of the older metal models. Thorgrim seems ungodly expensive on Ebay though, so getting him at a halfway decent price might take a while. Rather like the Thorek Ironbrow model, with that sweet anvil, and it hands out some nice buffs. Was one of the few legacy characters that didn't take much of a beating when the nerf happened. Other then that, was thinking of maybe grabbing Ungrim for that nice command ability (Was rather surprised to find that Ungrim is still named, and has the Dispossessed Keyword, unlike the other legacy characters), and Josef for that sweet ambush he can pull with a unit of quarrelers. Don't dislike the Fyreslayers, I think it's an interesting idea in theory, they just look kind of silly to me tbh. Kharadron aren't bad as well, since they're the other logical direction you could take dwarves, but at the same time, feels like they're a little to advanced for an AoS type setting. Plus whenever I look at them I get Squat flashbacks.

 

If there's anything undead it's gold to me

 

Of course it's the rule of cool we are talking about. I ignore power levels.

Complete rule of cool listing: TK > Dwarfs > Lizardmen > Orcs and Goblins > Skaven > High Elves > Bretonnia > Wood Elves > Ogre Kingdoms > Dark Elves > Beastmen > Daemons of Chaos > Warriors of Chaos >>>>>>>> Empire >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Vampire Counts.

I love the Fyreslayers and Kharadron Overlords just as much as the regular Dwarfs - I like the idea that they are all different cultures yet all have the same ancient roots as our favourite Grudge-Bearing bearded ones.

You PLONKER!

 

Rule of cool (the NIGHTBRINGER version):

1. Warriors of Chaos, Lizardmen & Tomb Kings (these 3 constantly swap positions among themselves)
2. Dark Elves
3. Chaos Dwarfs
4. Wood Elves
5. Ogre Kingdoms
6. Dwarfs
7. Skaven
8. Orcs & Goblins
9. Vampire Counts
10. Bretonnia
11. High Elves
12. Empire
13. Beastmen
14. Daemons of Chaos

 

Nab the Kharkarakadon rules (scrolls) and scratchbuild your own friggin’ flyin’ Frigates! Go for it before they squat them.

 

Can't really hate the Imperiums fluff to much myself, since it's basically intended to be a ridiculously over the top misery fest (The fanbase literally came up with the term Grimdark for the purpose of describing the grim darkness that is the 40k universe(I mean, it's also a pun on "In the grim darkness of the future, there is only war", but whatever)). GW's tried to take things seriously lately, which I'd say is a mistake since there's no going to back from growing babies in vats, attaching cybernetic enhancements and mechanical wings to them, killing the thinking section of their brain, and having them serve you as mindless servitors in a bunch of different rolls.

 

ORKS!

Yeah they aren't for everyone... I just got them because I think they and their ramshackle teknology is funny.

You know I was thinking about doing that:



Would make a great looking army!
