Ya in another 30 years when mass battle is popular again.

We have already been discussing that, so you are a we but late to the party, furthermore, more reliable rumor mongers have stated the author of that is either very wrong in his facts or flat out making it up

didn't know the cauldron gave a 5+ I've never seen it used as a mount

Yep, that would be the cauldron of blood, luckily hellbron is super flimsy with basically no save whatsoever, so you kill her off and the unit loses 2 attacks per model, better yet, just death snipe her unprotected butt, and laugh.

I agree, that or pictures!!!! But just having something to discuss and speculate over would build excitement far better than the cone of silence GW employs, the silence is deafening, and I routinely have to fight a lack of motivation to finish my models, even for a tournament I am attending...

Again, Lotr had round bases, and could rank up, like 40k demons can in fantasy, which would then give the brick of infantry a facing, if they balance the way a skirmish formation and ranked formation interacted it could keep that jockying for position, but make the game more dynamic, if...

I know, Tomb Kings/Undead legions versus warriors of Chaos, and the occasional OnG gets old quick, on the upside, I know how to smash Warriors of chaos, assuming decent dice rolls. Have no clue how to deal with other armies but that's the fun or tournaments right? :P Too bad 9th rumors...

I would hope GW was smart enough to make the new system work with old bases/models, I don't expect them to keep the models competetive forever, but I would hope they would be usable to start with, otherwise they will lose a ton of current players who don't want to start a new army. I am excited...

Gw doesn't care about that last point, Fantasy is being outsold by space marines alone, and has suppossedly been seeing smaller and smaller returns. So GW is trying to overhaul it to make it easier to get into, and attract more customers. If the current player base was sufficient to keep...

It is legal, it was one of the first things elves began discussing when khaine released. It is a nasty combo. In m area there is only me and one other gamer currently, so no idea on if it's common.

Remember, the rumors have all agreed that you can still use square bases, so you don't have to rebase zombies, you can use them as they are. AOS 2nd edition/10th edition may be circle bases only but currently, you can use your existing square bases. Less dense only matters if combat rules stay...

But most of the models in ranked combat are nothing more than wound counters, if you give models more wounds, you get the exact same effect with less models, and a lower buy in price. Will the movement phase change? Probablly, but unless GW really screws the pooch, movement will still require...

Rumors from harry and hastings have stated the upcoming game system will support smaller skirmish sized games as well as full mass combat, so the person reading the rumor may not have read the section regarding larger game sizes. I think it sounds interesting, and if what other rumor mongers...

I definitely found the concepts in it interesting, it was supposedly a quick read through so things may be wrong. Although I would hope it Is I move a unit you move a unit instead of I move, shoot, and magic with unit one, then repeat for the rest of my army then you do so, then combat, I...

The same person posted another massive block of text about general rules and stuff related to armies, and over on warseer HAstings said a lot of it lined up with what he has heard, so that fluff may be close to right, if so Nagash is now a God. It's on page 53 of the sigmar rumor thread

You mentioned in the Dual Engine thread your are interested in more challenges. SO if you are up for undead legions list I have one for you. Make a competetive 2500 point undead legions list making use of 8 or more Great weapon wielding ushabti.

Only if that unit would obscure more than 50% of the mortis engine, which since yours is shorter and not the same size as a normal mortis engine, will be hard to judge.

ya, It's kind of annoying, but it would be kind of overpowered to summon units straight into the safety of units.

In friendly games it wouldn't be a problem, but if you take it to a tournament, you may have people complain that you are trying to model to your own advantage but cutting the heights in half.

Just a small note, you can NOT summon characters into units, they have to be outside the unit at least an inch away, then you either use magic to let them move into a unit or they sit a whole turn in the open and then join a unit preventing you from charging with said unit.
