    In a world of 2++ re-rolls, multiple Low, hyper- efficient formations I think a tank that has lots of troop space and a thermal cannon is totally fine. Plus it looks cool, so yea go with it.
  2. Wow we all watch the same shows here. Iron Fist 6/10. Worst of the 4 MCU Netflix shows. Everyone compares it Arrow but since I don't like DC I don't know. Show starts off strong, then just goes down hill from there. Only really positive thing is now they can make the defenders. One Punch Man 8.5/10. Just finished it last night. First anime I've ever watched and I can't wait for season 2. So over the top and just great. Attack on Titan (4 episodes in) 7/10. So far this show is pretty darn awesome. However something is up cause Eren just got his leg eaten and then the rest of him eaten. Seems like you shouldn't kill the main character before halfway through the season. How I rate other shows; Got 9.9/10, Walking Dead 8/10, Rick & Marty 9/10
  3. Logan 9.5/10. Tha best send off to a character ever. Cinematography was dark and menacing. The characters were the best they have ever been. X-23 and Patrick Stewart especially were amazing. Only the villains were meh. Skull Island 6/10. Out of the 4 Kong films I know of this was just above the Jeff bridges 70's remake. Only thing good about it was it was on par with pacific rim and the beginning of a multiverse involving Godzilla. Rogue One 8/10. Titanic in space. The plus's; Madds Mickelson, the snarky robot and Vader destroying people. Why can't we get a film of Vader during his hunt for the Jedi's?
  4. Wtf? I had to come to a wargaming forum to find out about Rick & Marty S3? Y'all need to get schwifty.
  5. Well I missed that rule, which makes me feel pretty dumb. It also mean I won't be playing AoS anymore either as I don't want to spend anymore money and I actually don't have enough troops to play in any meaningful way. Well that sucks. Edit; Actually I'm just really dumb. I can just split the 30 man plaguebearer unit into three squads of 10 and be fine. This game is an emotional rollercoaster for me. One minute I'm super excited about something only to realize I've made a horrible mistake then only to find out I can just tweak something and be fine.
  6. So I've played some more games, scoured through my books and did some research online and I think I'm starting to get the hang of this AoS thing. Here is the current list I'm working with now; General- Glottkin Be'lakor Chaos Sorcerer Lord Spell Famliars Hellcannon 30x Plaguebearers 20x Plague Monks 20x Plague Monks 20x Plague Monks So if I'm reading everything correctly Glottkin provides +1 attacks to all nurgle units within 14' so my Plague monks are pumping out 4 attacks on the charge with 6's having rend -1, rerolling to hit and with tons of extra splash damage from the full command. My plague bearers are screening the army with a 5+/5++, rerolling saves of 1 and giving a -2 to hit from ranged weapons while being somewhat effective in combat with two attacks while in 14' of the Glottkin. Between the Sorcerer and the Glottkin, I can hand out save rerolls of 1's for up to 2 units (one from an ability, and one from a spell) and improve the saves by 1 on a unit as well. With Be'lakor I can attempt to troll one unit by making them roll a 4+ to do anything for a turn and reduce the amount of wounds a unit does by 1 each turn. Combined with the glottkins spell that increases wounds by one for a turn I can tarpit with the plaguebearers while my monks kill things. Throw in the hellcannon and an arcane bolt or two I should be able to snipe heroes and monster as well. So is this a viable list or is this something that just won't work?
  7. To be honest, this game reminds me of Heroclix or X-wing more than W:FB. And that is totally fine! I loved both those games. Like the game does have its own tactics. Since the double turn thing is legit, I can see how knowing when to use it can be key. And preventing the worst if it happens to you. Also models can't come closer than 3" unless charging? Seems like a great way to deny objectives. Yes, jacks I've played 40k. I think I started at the end off 4th? I've toned it down because the meta changes to quickly anymore to keep up.
  8. ... it was interesting. So some background. My opponent had only played one real game previously, I had played none. It was a 1000pts of Khorne (me) on Tzeetch action. My bloodthirster killed his LoC. Now my initial reactions of this game are its a fun game to play. Doesn't really require much thought, simple rules, I get to use my cool models again. But, it seems to me like alot of "4's to hit, 4's to wound, oh my save is a 4+!" Some of the rules from the free downloads are ambiguous to say the least and how am I supposed to actually play some models when they have things like "repeat aloud your opponents spell backwards and get +2 to dispel"? Is there an errata that rewrites these rules? Now I have some actual questions about the rules that I couldn't find the answers to in the general handbook; •Can you really shoot into and out of combat with no penalty? Seems weird, but I'm ok with it. •Is there no magic dice pool? You can just attempt any spell once by just rolling dice? •Is the alternating turns thing legit? That was a shock. It worked in my favor too but I got shot up really good before I ever got into combat. All in all it was a pretty fun experience. I don't think ill play that much cause it just seemed.... empty? Watered-down? I dunno, its just not W:FB. It is however the only way I will get to use my cool fantasy models in my area. I will definitely give it more games cause it was entertaining.
  9. Joined! I've found most of my models that have been hiding in boxes. I think I might try to do some blog thing to ensure I get the army together.
  10. Sorry Jacks, southern Oregon. But free rules sounds amazing! Edit: found the rules, found my generals handbook. What I can't find is a points cost for my hellcannon. I've had it for almost a decade and really would like to put it on the battle field.
  11. To be fair I sold the metal one cause it is the single largest metal model I have ever seen and most likely the most difficult model to put together GW as ever produced. And the resin one just sits at the FLGS. I'm sure it won't drop till 8th does so I imagine they will.
  12. So I played fantasy for years and have quite alot of chaos and demons lying around. Now that AoS has actual points and rules what do I actually need to play? Like are there AoS codex for armies? I have the generals handbook I believe. I'm just not really sure what I need to play AoS with points.
  13. Well it looks like I need all three versions now. Plastic, resin and metal.
  14. I'm not sure if this the right place for this or not, but I need chairs, beds, tables, bookshelves etch for D&D and AoS. I can build and find normal terrain pieces all day but I can't seem to find a good location for the other stuff. Anyone know where to look?
  15. So I was looking around in my bits and found two if you still need them.
  16. I think you can stack your 10% as well at Astral but I'm not 100% sure on that.
