Boingrot Bouncer Posted December 6, 2023 Share Posted December 6, 2023 Harbinger of decay git my vote too. Bought the box with him just for having a fun paint project and he looks amazing in pics and reality. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michu Posted December 6, 2023 Share Posted December 6, 2023 (edited) I'm pretty sure this is some kind of a Plaguebearer. Skaven would have different symbols in their book. Edited December 6, 2023 by michu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't see Ushoran or am I mistaken. I was looking for Ushoran as well. I guess he would win 2024... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wasn't looking for him for my vote per say but just surprised I didn't see him but if not released this year it makes sense. So many fantastic choices this year. Props to all those artists.

Acrozatarim Posted December 6, 2023 Share Posted December 6, 2023 Yeah, with the shape of that hand/claw and the Nurgle mark, that's gotta be Clan Pestilens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freypal Posted December 6, 2023 Share Posted December 6, 2023 Lots to pick from on that list. I went with Trugg the Troggoth King. Really like that model and the fun details on it. The new stuff in the gitz range is all amazing though. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkK Posted December 6, 2023 Share Posted December 6, 2023 (edited) I think plaguebearer daemon, possibly epidemius update? 3 fingers on the rumour engine, Skaven have 4 Voted for the harbinger, great mini Edited December 6, 2023 by MarkK Spelling 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sandlemad Posted December 6, 2023 Share Posted December 6, 2023 That book is very neat for a skaven tome, not scratchy at all. I could believe a skaven pestilence mini having some Nurgle icons in their book but when it’s all Nurgle, without any rune of the Horned Rat, a daemon seems more likely. Epidemius could be a good one indeed given that he’s still resin but then the arm seems rather skinny too. @MarkK Good catch re: number of fingers. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Preppikoma Posted December 6, 2023 Share Posted December 6, 2023 (edited) I voted for Vashtorr, as we had finally got the Soul Forge overperson, and I find the model fantastic. #everydaemonmodelisaninsertanyWarhammersettingmodel Edited December 6, 2023 by Preppikoma 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I work in education, in the UK, and the only thing that comes to my mind, when I hear of STD is PSHCE lessons. S2D is less awkward outside warhammer AND for me it's a nice little sequel joke; yeah this is Chaos 2, because they blew the other world up. 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CommissarRotke Posted December 6, 2023 Share Posted December 6, 2023 i voted for Tahlia but maybe should've done the Slann! i feel like us AOS peeps have to agree on what to vote for if we're ever going to unseat 40k 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s also another strike against AOS - we have such a wide range of stuff compared to 40K’s …quantity…😜 I voted for Ionus, but as you say there are so many minis that could be in the running that it's hard to pick one. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was thinknig the same. Voted Tahlia too, but feel I should have voted for Harbringer (seems the most rated AoS mini) trying to get our shiny top. Another nice idea would be a split between games. Voting the best mini for each game rather than an overall best. Edited December 6, 2023 by Ejecutor 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ejecutor Posted December 6, 2023 Share Posted December 6, 2023 Been checking the picture a bit more. Seems to be 3 larvs, right? Imo this kinda discards Skaven and fits more into a Nurgle model. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ogregut Posted December 6, 2023 Share Posted December 6, 2023 (edited) I think a big factor in why 40k tends to win every year is they have one or two really stand out models a year (this year being Angron and the Lion), while AoS seems to bring out a model of the year contender every month (lizards, gitz, trolls, trees, cities, ghouls). Thus the AoS votes are more split than 40k. I've said this many times to many people: I truly believe AoS have some of the best, if not best models in war gaming today.

Snarff Posted December 6, 2023 Share Posted December 6, 2023 They should really just make separate AoS and 40K categories (and maybe even separate votes). No harm in it, both settings get more love, GW gets to show off even more of their models, everybody happy. 13 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mutton Posted December 6, 2023 Share Posted December 6, 2023 40k models always win "model of the year" simply because it has way more players. More players means more votes. The voting process should definitely separate the two games. You'd of course align sub-games with the appropriate system (e.g., Warcry for AoS, Killteam for 40K, etc.). 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I've seen, opinions on angron are actually slightly divisive so I'm expecting the Lion to win, I voted for Ionus but it was close between him and trugg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus, it would be nice to have some distinct categories, similar to Golden Demon ones: I'd gladly cast separate votes for my favourite unit, character, centrepiece, vehicle, etc., and then choose the overall best. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For sure! It's also always a big centrepiece model that wins now, even if there have been extremely cool units and heroes released as well. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
