Lanoss Posted May 29, 2018 Share Posted May 29, 2018 Endless spells will cost points in your army. So it would be expected that the player choosing to cast the spell(s) has the model(s) to play as it would be listed in their army can’t wait!

Kramer Posted May 29, 2018 Share Posted May 29, 2018 (edited) 6 hours ago, Hoseman said: We will see how they manage that but if I spend 40 points for spell and cast 3 and in the next phase the second player moves 2 and I move 1... what wasted 80 points Not everything moves though. So it’s your choice a utility spell the changes the battlefield in some way until dispelled or a risky high damage dealer. That could hurt you just as hard (Which is nothing new for the skaven players among us Edited May 29, 2018 by Kramer 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought name Stormcast was a great name for a Podcast but upon actual usage it is pretty awkward to refer to it amongst more casual aos fans!

Dawnmane Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 I just realised the UK Games Expo is this weekend. Don't we all think that's when the release date for AOS 2 will be announced? Would make sense, and they've already announced that they will be previewing a lot of new stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christopher Rowe Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 (edited) Does anyone have any thoughts on how updates to current Warscrolls--which in many cases seem absolutely necessary to me--will be handled when the new edition drops? I play Seraphon, and almost every Warscroll in my army mentions a spell-based summoning mechanic for the given unit that will no longer be in play. And there's been talk that at least one unit, the Engine of the Gods, will have some changes to its abilities. On the one hand, it seems unlikely that GW would go though the hundreds of extant Warscrolls and update them all, but on the other hand, what might their workarounds be? A blanket statement in one of the new books saying something like "ignore the bits that don't apply anymore," only, y'know, in fancier language than that? ETA Off topic, but it makes me irrationally happy that this is the 13,000th post in this topic.

Otherwise you end up with some people playing from their books, some from the app, some from FAQs... It would be a mess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Marius Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 Does anyone reckon the mortarch of Grief could be Isabella von Carstein, doomed by Nagash to mourn Vlad for eternity as punishment for her, albeit unwilling, service to Nurgle? I mean, she distracted him so rats could blow up his pyramid, and hes not known to be forgiving... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smucreo Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 specially when talking about his beloved pyramid hahah everyone knows how obsessed he is with that particular shape ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GriinWan Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 New rules preview is out - we get 12 artefacts in each of 7 realms, in addition to new magic. Maybe there would be warlord traits too? It can be great for armies without battletomes, more variants, more options to play with. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ETA Off topic, but it makes me irrationally happy that this is the 13,000th post in this topic. I have a vague understanding of the last few summoning releases to help with this. Take it apart as you wish. Legions of Nagash: new warscrolls for current models, no update for old/unrelated models (Tomb Kings, Flesh Eaters). "Legends" book(?) to take care of obsolete models. Summoning applies based on keyword SUMMONABLE. Maggotkin of Nurgle: Warscrolls for those in the book, some unlisted warscrolls (example: Exalted Great Unclean One) updated as well. Summoning is a point system, like Seraphon. Points for summoning are listed either in the book, or on the card. Seraphon warscrolls one way or another need to be updated to remove the spell. The points costs are in a table we have already seen. Any new model will probably have summon points attached to the warscroll. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would be shocked if they didn't go through every warscroll in the game to tweak them in sensical ways to bring them into a new edition, clean up wording, and rebalance rules. For a company like them it would be ludicrous to not do this basic thing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we will get a date as I think majority of the GW seminar will be about AOS. I'm hoping to be there so will try and relay any info but if I'm honest, you probably will get better info from the community site. I'm expecting some sneak peeks at some of the upcoming kits too, especially as GW are in partnership with the Expo this year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
