Tonhel Posted Wednesday at 04:25 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 04:25 PM 26 minutes ago, Ejecutor said: But you were saying the opposite 🙃 Yeah, ideally all the rules are free and the battletomes become fluff/lore books which cost money. If this isn't possible, than I wouldn't mind to pay a higher Warhammer+ subscription if this allows digital acces to all the rules of all the battletomes. Now I am just subscibed to Warhammer+ for the mini and the occasional lore/painting video. I don't really care about the animations. I.e tomorrow I will do my first 40K battle in years. As a Warhammer+ subscriber I used the 40K app for making my army and see if it's legal, but I can't acces the datasheets and other rules (Space Marines), as they are behind a paywall. So I use the app for my army in combination with Wahapedia. I am not planning to buy the codex, but I would happily pay for digital (subscription based) acces to the rules in the app instead of spending almost 50 euro for a book that's obsolete in 2 years.

I would probably like to see prayers as opposed to spells for Cities as I think it fits more thematically for them? Burning wheel for Zenestra Crow and/or musical dooting skeleton for Morrdha Hammer with lightning for Sigmar Faction terrain I still hope it's the Cogfort. I am hoping that they have a prayer/spell for Humans, Duardin and Aelves. I keep hoping Cogforts will be a unit. Honestly I am expecting something a little more mundane in terms of terrain such as a freeguild barracks or a statue of Sigmar. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Red King Posted Wednesday at 05:14 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 05:14 PM (edited) People are mad at GW? Is it finally my time to shine? Beasts of chaos! Beasts of chaos! Riot in the streets! Edit: Fun Fact, if you don't update the app it doesn't change. You can go to the Google play store and click the 3 dots in the top right corner on the Age of Sigmar app page and then turn off auto-update. Edit 2: updating the app now implies to me that they aren't planning on making any big balance patch any time soon. Edit 3: Well edit 2 looks real dumb after today's article. Assuming the balance patch actually does come "later this month" Edited Thursday at 06:01 PM by The Red King 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The downside on that is they could make a change that won't make a previous version work anymore, but it is a nice tip. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah it's a short term solution but until they make enough big changes I guess it's better than nothing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grimrock Posted Wednesday at 06:34 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 06:34 PM For anyone that hasn't updated the app yet they don't delete your existing lists if you have more than 1. You can just create a massive pile of empty lists before updating and they'll stick around for you to clear and build to your hearts content. Only downside is you can't create new lists, so make sure you have enough for all your factions. Can't do anything about the warsrolls getting hidden though. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The burning wheel definitely fits a prayer better than a spell now you've said it. All the current generic endless spells fit the wizard orders, so prayers make sense as their manifestations.

Hollow Posted Wednesday at 08:15 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 08:15 PM The Battletomes, Gamer Edition, Warscroll Cards, App, FAQ, etc, are just a big fat mess. The full unlocked suite of Warhammer Apps should be a part of a Warhammer+ subscription. Physical products should be; A "Hobby-Book" filled with art, lore, background and ever-green hobby content (£40) A "Gamer-Book" with all army rules and battlescrolls. (£20) Done. 17 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TechnoVampire Posted Wednesday at 09:16 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 09:16 PM Am I right in thinking that once the battletome’s are released there will be no free GW source of accessing warscrolls? If so that is mad. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah just screen shots off of man reads book videos which are... sort of a GW source as they keep giving out their books for free to the people that do them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So as far as GW are concerned new (and even existing) players are supposed to buy a battletome for a faction just to see if they like the rules enough to want to get into them? Money is the only language GW understands. Spend wisely. Don’t endorse these predatory business practices. The more people spend when they are out of line the worse they become. 4 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GloomkingWortwazi Posted Thursday at 06:47 AM Share Posted Thursday at 06:47 AM I can never advocate for New Recruit enough. Battletomes and aaS apps can be inserted where the sun doesn't shine. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Acrozatarim Posted Thursday at 08:10 AM Share Posted Thursday at 08:10 AM 'Rules for your units are in the latest battletome' is something GW has been doing for over 30 years, back when they were just called Warhammer Armies books.

Lucentia Posted Thursday at 08:26 AM Share Posted Thursday at 08:26 AM Whilst that's true, Age of Sigmar has had free unit rules since its inception up until this point, so specifically for this system it is a notable change in approach. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't forget we don't have points now in the BTs, so the APP is kind of mandatory. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
