JMGraham Posted July 5, 2015 Report Share Posted July 5, 2015 Also, given Forge World's Open Day is today, and considering Gaylord is a UK goon, I wouldn't even class this as a rumor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McNathanson Posted July 6, 2015 Report Share Posted July 6, 2015 Cool. That statue should be sold to hire more/better rules writers, and playtesters, and a dedicated FAQ maintainer. Oh, GW, you poor dumb bastards. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pretre Posted July 6, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 6, 2015 Wishful thinking. The guy who posted it (judgedoug) has been accurate on the Eldar and AM releases. The only question is what is actually in the book. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Glacius Posted July 6, 2015 Report Share Posted July 6, 2015 Isn't that kind of the most important part of the book..what is inside of it? So basically he's saying "I don't know what's in it...but I think its a BRB!" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fluger Posted July 6, 2015 Report Share Posted July 6, 2015 This will be a fantastic game to throw down with the kids with my massive amount of painted models and I might spark them to play more. I am formulating how to trick them into learning the rules before the old man. I agree with this. I'm seriously contemplating getting a few cool units (off of disgruntled Fantasy players) to give this a go with Ezra (6 years old). He sorta understands King of Tokyo and checkers, I think he can handle this game, and the goofy fluff text rules will be something he enjoys. As someone that sat out 8th edition, I gotta say I'm really not super enthused about AoS so far. It seems like (as Jim said) Baby's First Mini Game. I've sat out 8th edition hoping for a a 9th edition that would please me. I'm not seeing that in AoS so far. Shame. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

indytims Posted July 6, 2015 Report Share Posted July 6, 2015 $74 model? Unlikely. The AoS -Novel-, silly! But... I didn't see the prices, and $74 for a novel does sound a little... wacked. :/ If it's the 96-page 'pamphlet' from the box.... ugh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When a product becomes obsolete it usually gives its code to its replacement. - "BS1 MSL of 1" means those are important items, all retailers being part of the stockist program, even at the lowest level (BS1), must have as many as the MSL present on their shelves at all time.

Terell Posted July 7, 2015 Report Share Posted July 7, 2015 "GW had a guy camped out at the Forge World open day whos entire job was to answer questions and talk to people about Age of Sigmar. His entire job is to go to shows and talk to people about the new game. For the first time I think ever they’re taking Age of Sigmar to Gencon, Comic Con, all the major wargames conventions in Europe etc. They’re throwing a considerable amount of money at putting this in front of new audiences who have never played fantasy before. He was also brutally honest and didn’t dodge any questions and answered everything he could. I’ll start with the negative stuff first. This is it. There categorically will not be a ‘9th’ edition of fantasy. Age of Sigmar is the only thing fantasy related GW will do for the considerable future. He acknowledges that the ‘funny’ rules are rather silly and don’t make for a great intro to the system for new people. His response was that the armies in the box set don’t have the silly rules. They’re there as kind of a celebration and final send off of the old warhammer armies, and he said you might notice the new armies don’t have the stupid noises or imaginary friends. This is deliberate, its designed that you’ll only generally play the old stuff with your mates since it’s a bit embarassing to play in a public place. The new races will look different to the old ones. Ooruks will not look the same as the orcs we currently have. As such, when they get round to releasing Ooruks, the old models will cease production. He did say that you can still use your old models as ooruks, but you won’t be able to buy normal orc boys again. There will never be points values. On to the slightly positive stuff then. They are going to fully support all modes of play, and will be releasing rules to balance armies against each other. There will be narrative campaigns where your forces are picked for you for specific missions, and there will be a system for tournament players to balance lists that isn’t based on model count. He did not know the specifics of this, but said it is definitely coming. The rules will always be free. He said that they are very very aware that fantasy had a massive buy in for someone to get started, as such the game was designed with the ability to play it with one box of models. There will be army books, but every rule in them will be available, for free, online. The books will just have extra background info and scenarios. GW really are trying harder than they ever have before to make this work. If you’re at one of the shows go and talk to them. They want to talk to you about this, but especially they want your feedback on it. As he said, this is totally uncharted territory for them and they are totally open to rules revisions as they go.” Beasts of war are reporting the same thing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
