It really didn't. And yes, the wounds might be different but the rules are idiotic. A rifle deals flat damage now on a role, rather than varying it's effectiveness based on the toughness of the target. Its supposed to be easy to whipe some squads, and harder to deal with others, what they've done now is dumb the system down to it's simplest form, and say the one who shows up with the most troops wins

Not entirely true since Skaven, Beast men, Lizard men, Orcs and Goblins, and other Horde armies can easily be beaten out by Dwarves, Sigmarines, Brettonians and Nurgle Daemonkin. It's all about unit diversity and Formations.

No I dont mean swarm vs elite. With teh revamped war scrolls thing you can literally bring as many models as you like without restrictions, no longer limiting yourself by percentages, leading to stupid, broken cheese

that's why AZYR and other Comps exist. AoS promotes the usage of different styles and more diverse campaign scenarios instead of just a full out ground war

I'm going back to my 40K, where we still maintain the semblance of dignity in balance, and wayyy too many rules. I wanna point out, in it's original release, AoS' rule book was 4 pages long

40k balanced? Have you seen the Adeptus Mechanicus?

I stop them repeatedly with guard, never had an issue before. The AdMech seem perfectly balanced not too strong not too weak

Age of Sigmar is a disgraceful and most irritating error.

To wipe out 30 years of established lore and replace it with something so generic, so...kiddie...so slapdash it defies belief.

GW has gone off the rails, and the company I once admired is now a deluded ego machine for its execs. The only reason they maintained even the semblance of profitability was by dismissing most of their staff, removing many stores and cutting pay. Next year they have no more easy solutions and they will suffer for it.

/rant.

Hail! I salute what you just said and agree completely

While I'm not a fan of AoS, the Sigmarines, and the further disgracing of Khorne from Honorable War God, to God of Temper tantrums, I will say this. The End Times worked out very nicely for a follower of the Dark Gods.

Chaos: 1
Order: 0


Also the minis look fucking beautiful, I need to steal some for my Khorne 40k army >.>

 

[Valiens Nantaris]

The end times started well. I was genuinely curious as to what they'd do. The Nagash book was genuinely the first time I'd bought anything from GW in 13 years.

But then I perceived their plan was to tear down and destroy the entire world, and the convolutions of logic became too great. By the end I was apathetic, even if I was shocked that the world ended.

 

[BT-5388]

That's actually the biggest thing that frightens me when people ask about advancing the 40k plot. I'm not so sure they'd actually be able to craft something worth continuing onwards with, and largely, we'd either lose more than we could gain, or nothing would change at all, in which case, huzzah, more wasted time.

 

[Valiens Nantaris]

Oh, I'm under no illusions that 40k might not suffer the same fate.

 

[Tanith Alde]

I don't care what dies and what doesn't, aslong as my gameplay lives on

 

[Valiens Nantaris]

I wouldn't bet on it.
