  2. I would love to see the Ghur reanimated landscape/bones be turned into something for bonesplittaz. Make them reanimate souls from the bones as they do/believe and summon cool totemic animal spirits.

  3. Vince thanks for pushing forward and making the show happen tonight despite your health issues. I've spent too much time in the ER for myself (kidney stones) and friends & family. Please take care and for all of the power games/painters please mix in a glass of water with lemon between sodas or other beverages to reduce your chance of developing kidney stones. They will make you feel a level of pain you never through possible.

  4. Major props for Tom being "that guy". Vince, you are a great person and I hope you get to feeling better soon!! As for want to add/change in AoS, I just want people to play with lol its not big in my community. Plus my job just makes me work alot so finding time is also a thing for me lol.

  5. Sounds like the Holy event has a more complicated version of battle tactics. It’s a bucket list event for me to go to someday. Implementing that system into battle plans would be more difficult than a standard set for the ghb.
    I hope you get to feeling better Vince.

  6. Speaking from personal and professional experience, there is a complexity threshold that starts turning away casual players, and casuals are where you make your money. I liked the first two editions of AoS, but there is just a little too much going on in 3e for me to want to invest the time to play it. Luckily, I really like WarCry, so I still have something fun to do in the setting.

  7. I am really glad you guys have the pulse on the casual player base. I maybe play 6 -8 games a year and I hate that every game is a rule learning experience. I need a dad hammer mode or counter top format that is eternal for the edition. I can keep up with edition changes, but a 6 month cycle for generals handbook is impossible to keep up with. I actually prefer the complexity being in my battletome. I know the battletome will be good for 2-3 years (unless you play elves), so I can learn that complexity, but when there is a new core battalion every 6 months it feels like I just can’t keep up

  8. King for a day, I would raise the average amount of drops.
    Either make bat reg more difficult to fit into, can’t take double bat reg, something like that.
    Just don’t like that it’s either very low, or very high drops

  9. Oof. Hope you get well soon Vince!
    It was hard to watch you struggle during the stream. I look forward to Warhammer Weekly every week, but would not have minded missing one if that meant you could recover in peace. <3
    Either way, thanks for the weekly dose of good humor and hobby enthusiasm to the three of you.

  10. I think the next ghb should have new battalions, grand strats, heroic actions, realm rules ect. But mainly

    Take 10 pages

    Re do all terrain and garrison rules.

    There everything's good.

    But bonus point if they release another new box of generic endless spells along side the ghb

  11. Thanks for the show always Vince, always makes my Saturday hobby session more interesting! 😀

    Out of interest, not sure whether you know? I am guessing the Lumineth list Tom mentioned was Ymetrica to fulfill the battleline requirements and synergy with Avalenor?

  12. If I could change one thing I would refine summoning. Make it a core rule, easier to learn for non-summoning players. Also remove any summoning mechanics where your opponent does something (eg kills a thing or casts a spell) and you get rewarded.

    Summoning makes scoring VP from battle tactics and grand strategies easier so let’s atleast make it consistent and easy to understand for everyone!

    Get well soon Vince!

  13. For me the switch to 6 month seasons has switched me off buying the GHB at all. I just don't get games consistently enough, so it's pushed me further into narrative play.

  14. The complexity of aos 3 is such a challenge. Even as I continue to work on a massive Lumineth project alongside ironjawz, CoS, and a KO armies, I have not yet played a full 3ed game… And I feel a mix of shame alongside relief that I have friends also willing to play "3ed lite"!
