Antanas the Great

Just read through the Vamp AoS rules. Actually really like them. They seem pretty fluffy (especially the zombie ones). Anyone want to do an AoS game on Sunday?

Will try to be there with Vamps

Deathstars are the only thing that comes to mind but I suppose they were always possible just not as viable as they are with steadfast. Never have run them so 6 dice magic was never an issue in my book. My solution is to bring back unit strength (e.g. 4 demigryphs have unit strength 12) with a 10 disrupting. Also only allow make way on 2nd round of combat.

AoS has turned me into a grumbly old man at the tender age of 30. I'll be there playing 8th until there is no one left to play.

Yeah...nope. Only played Fantasy for nostalgia. AoS does not resemble it in any way other than the names of the units. I will play 8th until people no longer play it regularly. After that I'm done.

That Age of Sigmar logo looks like it's straight out of 1994

People's proclivity for ****ing all over GW amazes me. They hate us cause they ain't us. If they came out tomorrow and gave everyone AoS for free, there would still be people complaining. Their marketing strategies are not any different than Apple or any other company that has the best product in the market. Tease away GW, Tease away.

I like the idea that black powder is a rarety. It always seemed out of place in the fantasy world to have lots of cannons and guns. Seems like the lore could be an improvement.

I won't be there, not feeling well.

+1

I see what you did there. Nice.

I love how everyone turns into financial analysts every time GW is mentioned.

Should be able to make it today

Yeah if I go I'll probably fly to avoid Seattle July 4th traffic. There's an early morning flight so cost is probably a wash saving 1 hotel night.

My MVP for the tournament was my Witch Hunter with Ruby Ring. He sniper killed 2 Level 4 wizards and almost got a third. 3 Killing blow wounds on a Grey Seer but he had Talisman of Pres and MR2. Matt P nailed the 3x 2+ ward saves! 75 points well spent. Was going to wait on buying anything until 9th but seeing all the awesome display boards motivates me to do one. Will be creating one for my Ostermark army with a Witch Hunter/Graveyard theme.
