GW looks like they're going back to a more classic engineering approach with universal joints and simple poses. I really appreciate that. The Ork Kommandos were and excruciating process of hunting down which unique joint bit I needed rather than just clip off whatever and glue. And that just makes conversions way easier and that where I have the most fun.

Instead of continuing my painting I completely started over to get exactly what I wanted. It's one of the most important steps to get right and taking time is what does the trick

Actually, majority CoS cavaliers are not aristocrats, but veterans who earned enough money to buy a membership to a wealthier free guild with horses and armour. Its just in AoS majority of people use vials of Aqua Giranis - live water, practicaly a healing potion, as money. The richer person gets the more acces for life water he will get. Thats why wealthier people in AoS can live far past the century and probably why they will be healthier, stronger and taller

Something I found out from Adam Savage's channel. The reason for gold edging on pages wasn't originally aesthetic. It was to keep out bookworms, which can't stomach gold leaf. Makes perfect sense when you take as axiomatic the idea that "The purpose of a book is to protect the information inside." As a longtime Empire player: 2/10, distinct lack of puffy sleeves and oversized bonnets. Literally unplayable!

Just my 2c, you're absolutely right... they're not needed on so many different models, they could and should get creative and add more diversity to the model units.

Especially in a medieval fantasy. While I have no understanding of military operations, I certainly can't imagine low level peasant soldiers being issued and then wearing them in all campaigns, especially when half the realms are described as dust bowls.

Idk, I think this box suffers from the GW too much detail problem. I think everything is so extra, and especially the cavalry look so cumbersome to paint. And to be a bit cynical, I don’t think these are going to be a kitbash source, as once they put these out separately, each soldier will be $5-7 each. Too expensive to mess around with.
@dragonwyrmdracodracul8361
Жыл бұрын
Yeah the "detail" feels like GW overcompensating so that they have something that they can Copyright. The old empire was Landsknecht, which they really couldn't own the IP to. So now they are making sure that the IP is theirs and that people can't use those cheaper and better historical kits (Warlord Games Landsknecht, Perry Miniatures Mounted Men at Arms).

Stormcast, just like Space Marines are worshipped by the people as Sigmars living greatness, so imitating them a little bit would make a lot of sense.

I wonder if the difference in height between the infantry and knights was an intentional, but over done historical point.

Most CoS cavaliera aren't nobles - they are veterans who can afford to buy a horse and suit of armour. The most used currency in Cities of Sigmar is Aqua Giranis - vials of healing water that can be exchanged for goods and services. This also means that rich people can prolong their lives far past the century mark. The richer folk is also healthier, stronger, bigger and more beautiful because of it.
