Don't really care in the slightest about the army building rules—scenarios all the way baby!

However, for general gameplay, they cover some of the only concerns I had from my first game, particularly with shooting. Looking forward to trying another game using them.

Apparently, these are on their way here soon.

So far, she's only posted pics of actual upcoming stuff, so I imagine these are legit.

I think this person really "gets" what AoS is supposed to be.  I'm still really excited to play it with my daughter after OFCC is over!!

 

I think though that what is missed is that it's not "entitlement" that has me looking for another game to replace WFB (which AoS does not do).  It's that I really love the look and feel of WFB as I have grown to enjoy it.  I play a Bretonnia army of 100+ peasants for a reason... cuz it looks like the opening scene of Gladiator, and is freakin' inspiring to me!

 

So to claim that me continuing to look (elsewhere if needed) for what is inspiring to me, is somehow me being entitled, or missing the point of AoS, is just not accurate.  And I realize he didn't mean "everyone who is upset about WFB being canceled is a rage-quitter".  

 

But at the same time, writing a blog in support of AoS, and holding up WFB rage-quitters as the counterexample to your own opinion, is a straw man logical fallacy, and kinda irks me :)

I would point out that it was not the article that mentioned entitlement. In fact, at no point were rage-quitters, complainers, haters, etc, etc even mentioned by the article. Those were mentioned by Agent P. Not to throw P under the bus, but it's important to note the distinction if you're going to discuss the article.

Okay this has me liking AoS even more than the Bretonnia army book :)  Deke are you coming to OFCC?!?  SAY YES!

Sadly no. Last year it was on top of Gencon, which is now a work obligation. This year it's on top of our company camping/rafting trip. The new single date OFCC is cool, but it makes it so that if I can't make the date I don't get to visit at all.  :(

It makes me sad, I miss you fools. I may just need to schedule a time to come visit, hang out, and play some games independent of OFCC.

I'm with OD and jollyork. I have my first game Wednesday and can't wait to play. It even got me to post back on the forums. Hi guys!  /waves

I love Warhammer models, but the barrier to a new army had become so high, and time investment so much, I pretty much could only stick with what I had already. Now I can cherry pick my favorites and build lots of lovely little skirmish forces, and play nice fast games with them.

It's not going to get me my ranks and files fix, but eh, I have my 5th, 6th, 7th, and 8th edition books still, not like they caught fire or anything.

I'm also very interested to see the rumored campaign system(s) and scenarios.

Deke out.

Oh and Dashneeb, don't fear, HellDorado is not going away. I have four brand new models getting studio paint jobs right now and more coming. ;)

Can some one please post links to the Dogs of War and Norse ebooks that are being allowed so my team and I can check them out?

Is this the Dogs of War one?

Thanks!
