I tuned out of WFB after 6th because the prospect of buying, modeling, and painting a new army was too much of a time burden. That doesn't even include carting around hundreds of models, setting up, and playing a game!
I saw the Age of Sigmar models and thought, "That's like four, maybe even five, awesome Blood Bowl teams in that box!"
I read the four-pages of rules and thought, "That actually sounds like a fun, and almost-as-importantly short, game to play."
I read the free Warscroll updates and thought, "Wow, now this sounds really fun. And they even brought back some classic units that they didn't have to, for even more fun."
Now I'm excited to buy the box set. At least I'll get some BB teams out of it, and at most I'll have a whole new fun game to use my WFB army that hasn't seen a table in ten years.
I'm only one gamer, but I'd say GW: Mission Accomplished.
This is a sentiment that I can get behind!

Using Hitler meme's is inappropriate and does not belong on this forum. If you wish to use the leader of a genocidal reich as the vessel for your immature jokes perhaps you should try a forum like 4chan.

See topic. Message me if interested.

Perhaps work on the phrasing then? I'm generally upbeat about most things without being quite as manic as Sylvos.
Wtf manic

Age of Sigmar is RAD!

Anyone know how late the game hall will be available for open games on Friday night?

It's a different dimension perhaps. Maybe Sigmar fell through realities and has entered into a shattered realm where Chaos has not won.
I mean come on folks, they are giving you a chance to play with ALL your toys.
Isn't that what you always wanted? The chance to make the list that fits the theme in your head, regardless of force org restrictions?
Maybe now I can make that army with the Ranger-General Sylvos Tahl'Veras the Huntsman, leading his army of stalkers and dual wielding forest assassins.
I can create that army lead by Dornatha the Verdant Rage and his handmaidens of the thorn.
I can play that army and not take 3 hours so my wife txts me at 10 asking me when the [big bad swear word] I am going to be home.
I mean seriously, embrace change and give it a shot. Worst case scenario you lost a few hours of your life. Hell I do that every time I take a [big bad swear word].

I've made 3 armies so far and working on a fourth.
I am excited as a 13 year old discovering a Playboy back in 1993 when Vannah White was featured.
Serious, like major boner time.
Like, more excited than when Bo Derek was naked on Skinemax.

Just imagine if I posted as much as BG. Our combined hatred would burn bright white, and consume everything. You would all go blind from that inferno!
A disco inferno.

You'll have to explain to me how forming a supporting opinion on the game is somehow different from forming negative opinions on the game from the same set of rumors.
He's just saying you complain.
A lot.

Yep. Both bailing on AOS or what comes after it. Not a single game played yet and we're bailing on it.
Not me bro.
I'll stand by you.

Ahhh. Just as many of us had thought, formations and detachments for AoS.... I just wonder if the old armies will have any, or if those will be limited to new forces going forward only...
EVERYTHING IS AWESOME!

I personally can't wait for the game to release the war scrolls.
I look forward to having a whole new infusion of fresh blood into the Warhammer Fantasy scene.
I have grown weary of the meta:
- always taking a level 4.
Hay bro sorry I've got a 1+ armor save and a 3+ ward rerollable on 1's - LOLLERCAUST
I took a fluffy list using substandard options - HAHA YOUR LIST SUCKS!
If this spell goes off your unit dies - SIX DICE IT BRO!
Take a huge horde unit - haha FAST CAV BRO!!
LOL YOU TOOK FRENZY? - enjoy being lead around hahahahaha
Hey let's play CHAFFHAMMER!
I want to take a hero on a monster...LOL CANNONZ!
Hay bro let's play Warhammer - LOL AVOIDANCE LIST HAHA ENJOY THAT GAME BRO!
Hey your deathstar lost by 3...NOPE STEADFAST LD10 BRO LOLLZ!
WHAT'S YOUR SWEDISH COMP NUMBER BRO? WHAT'S YOUR COMP SCORE BRO??!!??!?!
OK we're in combat. MY ENTIRE ARMY HAS ALWAYS STRIKE FIRST LOL UR WS3 AND INIT 4 LOLLZ REROLLS ALL DAY!!!!
"End Times broke the game" - actually it broke the meta. The game had been broken long before, we had just found ways to deal with it.
Even with all of those terrible broken issues, I loved the game. This rule set seems streamlined. I can appreciate that.
Seriously, let's take a step back and realize that you can still play 8th edition all day long. When AoS drops I will be moving forward and giving it a shot. If AoS does not foster a strong gaming community then well, there is always the successful 40k. I love 8th edition and think it was their best product. It however has ended and is no longer supported so I shall move on and try something new. Embracing change. It doesn't work for everyone but I'll give it a shot.

Actually the 2 day needs 12 players to hit the 50% threshold.
We are moving forward with the event anyway however.

Maybe they've finally decided to go all-in on their stated mission of making beer and pretzels games.
I personally think that abandoning points in favor of models is a step in the right direction. The sudden death mechanic is dicey and looks to be a chancy option that is a "deployment" gamble.
I really can't wait to just field my army the way I want it and rock out with my cock out.
-
I am super friggin excited to play this game.
Seriously, like I will be playing this during OFCC after the games are over.
I can't wait for ALL the warscrolls!
