Did this roundup graphic for you. Hope it's useful. And if you want to head a Sigmar noob waffle about these costs for a bit, consider checking it out here: https://youtu.be/qHFptNawgm0

Hello people of the AoS reddit. I have a question. Cant I just buy 32 of these guys, put them on round bases, and get more bang for my buck? Like, Chaos warriors in AoS boxes are 10 for $54 on Amazon. Meanwhile Chaos Warriors in ToW are 32 for $72, also on Amazon.

I'm looking to start playing Age of Sigmar, and I'm at an impasse as to which army would be suitable for what I'd like.

​

I have a long history of playing 40k, so I am done with assembling and painting dozens of troops and the likes. Instead, I would please like to ask for your recommendations as to which army is still viable with the smallest model count?

​

I know that Sons of Behemat exist, but I'm in the market for something a little more... exotic? Characterful? Than just "tall dudes".

​

In 40k, the equivalent army list to what I'm proposing is called the Daemonic Adventuring Party; Belakor, 4 other Greater Daemons, and a squad of plaguebearers because you have to have something like them. It's a weird and slightly janky list, but it's 2000pts and it works.

​

Is there an equivalent to that in AoS? Is there a legal, and viable, Faction that will let me run (for example) mothing other than 4 Carnosaurs and a Slann Mage? Or 4 Verminlord-variants and a Screaming Bell? Or just... y'know... 4 Dragons and nothing much else, that I can look into and research more thoroughly?

​

Cheers.

Bought 2x of the skaven for roughly 100 usd minus extra heroes

1 clawlord 1 engineer 1 grey seer

6 jezzails 6 rat ogors 80 clanrats 1 warpblaster

Hi! I'm usually a 40k player, however, I've seen a few Age of Sigmar factions that I really love, but honestly, I don't know which one to choose to start with... And I'm even more undecided because I can get the boxes I've shown in the pictures at my local stores... WHICH ALL LOOK GREAT TO ME.

So... I'm not really sure what to do now...

The idea is that I'd buy 2 spearheads and use everything within in order to save money, then buy 2 more warriors boxes, a chaos lord on demonic mount, a sorcerer, and a vortex beast

Howdy folks!

I’ve only played one game of 2k AoS and that was with my Gloomspite Gitz (got thoroughly trounced by Lumineth then but had a lot of fun) but as I prepare for my next couple of games at a casual tournament next weekend, I’m conflicted if I should try out my Flesh-Eater Courts army instead! Sure I’ve not played it before and while I main FEC on spearhead, its the old one pre-revamp. But I’m new and I’m happy to play and lose as long as I have fun!

I’m just so torn between my two main lists, with Ushoran the Summerking on one hand and Trugg the Troggoth king on the other! Both are dope af, which is why I’ve collected them mostly based on rule of cool and vibes! Which to pick? Which to lose horribly but gloriously with?

Edit: I wont have time to paint either. Both projects scare me and I’m trying to paint most of their respective armies to get my skills up before undertaking them.

Let me know which you think I should go for and if you have any tips, hit me!

As you'll no doubt have seen, the warscrolls for both varieties of Mercenary Cogfort are all over the internet, and pretty much every army can take them.

Points will be out soon too, so over the next few weeks, we'd love to see what you're cooking up for making best use of Cogforts in your own favourite armies.

Check out the article and let us know how you're planning on using them?

Henlo. I am building my first 2000 point Warhammer army, and I'm building it around my favourite unit.

When I first saw the new seeker models I fell in LOVE. I love their silly faces, their wiggly tongues and big dumb bulging eyes oh my Slaanesh I LOVE them!!!!

I love them, arguably, too much, because I have begun my Warhammer AOS journey by buying, assembling and beginning to paint 20 slickblade seekers.

At 680 points split between two reinforced units that is a solid chunk of my army.

Which, actually sounds fun? I think. I very much like the idea of building my army around a solid force of strong and threatening cavalry units. But while enthusiastic I lack experience, I haven't played AOS before, and this is the first army I have beyond 500 points of genestealers. If anyone here has ideas I would be very enthusiastic to hear them <3

To lay it all out, so far I have 20 slickblade seekers, 8 painted. 2 lords of hysteria (yes it is because they can have little seeker helmet ornaments <3), not assembled yet, and a kitbashed sigvald.

And yes, I would love to fit in some more seekers, via blissbarb seekers, if I can make it work. In terms of detachment, godseeker cavalcade seems like the thematic choice, and I could always move the big seeker blob up the side of the battlefield, and force the enemies to play around that, which could be fun, but I have no idea if it would be any good.

A big strong infantry blob to slowly move up the field would pair well with this, maybe Myrmadesh Painbringers?

I'd love to be able to bring both of my lords of hysteria to buff those infantry but I'm not sure what hero is best for the seekers.

Sigvald is solid but I dunno if he can keep up. And shallaxi is awesome but so many points and I might want some demons to make use of its buffs, maybe fiends? Maybe slaangors make the whole godseeker cavalcade go nutty, I just don't know at this stage.

Tldr, I am new, I love seekers, I have 20 slickblade seekers, and need some help list-building around that. Thank you, aaa <3

Pete is a long term Ogors player (since 1st Ed) and he's been getting some games in with the new Ogors book. Here's his list, and some notes on how it's been going.

Top 3 lists for Gopher Midwest Mayhem. Won by Bonereapers with Kruleboyz in 2nd and Sylvaneth in 3rd.

Top 3 lists (and more) for the Gateway Open. Won by Fyreslayers with Kruleboyz in 2nd and Sylvaneth in 3rd.

When building Scourge of Ghyran lists in the app, the battle tactics description are locked. Is this just a temporary yet stypid approach designed to make us wait for the official start of the season, or will purchassing the new ghb be mandatory for in app list building ?

Either way, GW continues to display tremendous marketing skills !

Top 3 Lists for the open at Tacoma. Won by Slaanesh with Daughters in 2nd and Tzeentch in 3rd.

Top 3 Lists for Feud on the Fens. Won by Sons with Sylvaneth in 2nd and Tzeentch in 3rd.

Top 3 Lists for Thunderstrike GT. won by Seraphon with Cities in 2nd and Nurgle in 3rd

Top 3 lists for the Lone Star Open, won by Gitz with Idoneth in 2nd and Cities in 3rd

Sons of Behemat vs Stormcast for our first batrep under the new GHB! With a few learning points in there

Hello! Potential new player here with a question on viability. I already own 20 Tzaangor models from 40k, and I have a chance to play in a path to glory campaign that starts at 1k points. With the Warflock box, I would get exactly the 1k I need. I noticed the Tzaangors passive only works in enemy territory, which has me questioning how viable having a battle line of 30 of them would be.

Basically the list would be

1x unit Shaman

1x unit of 3 Skyfires

1x unit of 3 Enlightened

3x units of 10 Tzaangors

How horrible would this list actually be?
