I have to admit, as a new player that just started warhammer AOS, I'm really confused on what army to start. I like demons, greenskins, death, everything remotely evil looking and bad ass. I have a lot of options, with the new updated battle tomes I'm also now leaning towards seraphon? I have no idea how lists look now or what to play. Let's say Seraphon, is their whole range getting updated? I can't find enough info on these kind of things since most famous websites just showcase a few models.
Shout out to Jack for taking Grave Guard with shields, I feel like you only ever see Great Wight Blades. Curious to see if Legion of Blood catches a nerf, though the book is so new the meta might just adjust.
I think the "Galletian Veterans" question is really interesting, I know it's beloved by a lot of players but I think there also might be an element of "adapting to skew" going on here where people are just used to the meta created by universally accessible fight-in-2-ranks that they've decided it's fine. There are substantial drawbacks to giving this to every army for free, and while I'd love, for example, Skaven to get a better and more horde-appropriate ability, Strength in Numbers is a perfect example of an inadvertent power-down to a faction from this battalion existing. They lose an identity-defining piece of being "the horde faction that can fight in ranks" when every army gets to extend the range of their 1" weapons to 2 ranks and ignore base size. I think the limitations of piling-in, weapon range, and fitting base sizes into coherence is a core part of the balance of AOS warscroll stats, and GV kind of destabilizes that core principle.
Question to Neferata: Can u re-set up the units with her ability closer than 9' to enemy Territory so u have e.g. graveguard 9 from enemy units before the game even Starts? (If the opponent deployed as near as possible?
Sounds like you’ve been getting your research in on the armies/units ahead of worlds 😊 now just some practice needed on the player names judging by some of the attempts 😂
I just want to give a big shout out to everybody at The Really Good GT!
I was unable to attend as I was in a bad car accident the weekend prior while on my way home from an RTT. Iong story short, I lost my entire army in the accident, and they ran a fund raiser without my knowledge so I could get back on the tables! I am beyond humbled and can't thank this community enough!
It baffles me that no one is actually reading the warscroll. The Ulfenkarni Phylactery does NOT give a 5+ ward save. It increases the ward save roll by 1. This is significant, because Torgillius changes the ward save to 5+. The reason it's so significant is that the phylactery and Torgillius together provide a 4+ ward to summonable units, as it is still a +1 to the save, due to Torgillius changing Deathless Minions to 5+, not conferring a +1.
Well I may have a theory about why you aren’t seeing Gitz or Sylvaneth… you need their faction terrain pieces, which are super hard to get with GWs supply chain/production issues.
Personally i dont see why LoB needs a nerf. Its all balanced well for the points. The only problem i see is the VLoZD is slightly to cheap u see it in basically every list or you see the kastelai boy… hes just to cheap for what he does. Make him 480 or 500 points and its good
Yes.

So many broken codecs
Just to clarify, the corpse cart is MW'S on 6'S to wound.
Yes. Alongside the recent releases. V3 was going so great, and then they power creeped the whole thing and turned it into rock-paper-scissors xD
Still planning to start Lumineth, but some matchups feels bad
oh man… here come the art of war sigmar coaches
Nighthaunt nowhere to be seen. 😢 Thematic in a way I guess
Hope they aren't broken, spent around £500.00 on them 🙈
Top review as always.
I'm afraid of the end of that edition.
Some of the last BT are…stranges and look the official roadmap… 3books and campaigns books….sigh XD
Dang, I was hoping the STD want just a ton of splintered fang. I want to see a good list from that army that isn't just mass splintered fang.

Italy has always had peculiar balancing rooster

That’s just my theory.
Those Lumineth sure are killing it.
Wait are we done hating them? Are they bad now?
Love to see some Ironjawz doing some work this weekend!
Great to see OBR back in the game
Thanks for just being honest with us Rob, that’s all we ask!

No Skaven ?
