    "Think of it as a giant didgeridoo" is not a sentence I expected to hear in an AOS lore video, but I appreciate it nonetheless.

    What I like about Age of Sigmar is that it's a great contrast to 40k. If you want a gritty setting where all hope is lost and the people just endure out of sheer spite, go to 40k, but if you want a setting where there's still a lot of ugliness in the world, but there is an actual possibility that things can be made better, use AOS. People forget that Warhammer Fantasy Battle was not as dark as 40k, there were true allies and friends between races and neutral factions. And they should remember that before trashing the whole AOS setting.

      @Thorize91 Před 3 lety +4

      The timeline doesn’t lineup for that, they write the books about 6-8 months in advance (so they can start with layout and design stuff). Maybe at the early stages of the broken realms plannings there was one but she has been doing stuff through all the books instead so it makes sense to give her a short story like the other main players :)

    What an awesome example of why AOS is great, a once prosperous city of magic and prophecy gets undermined by a wee bit of Tzeentch cultism and and now its a city of paranoid zealots gone into full witch hunting mode - Now THAT ladies and gentlemen is some real story progression as the game and world builds forwards.

      Narh, it's just Kragnos coming out and whipping destruction into shape, thats my bet what the rest of this book will be like. We would have more rumor engine images that were unsolved if we had a new whacky race coming.
      IMO we will get a small update for some of the more outdated ranges FEC, CoS, BoC, etc. then we will probably see whatever Malerions cooking.

They won't be there at launch of 3rd, but I think we might start seeing more of them in the next year or two after the first big event in AOS has wrapped up. Kind of like how the necroquake set the stage for all of 2nd. I agree that those other factions will probably get some more models at some point too - a few of the AOS roster are pretty bare bones.

      Anything going back to the Old World is just going to be some variation or another of "magic did it!"
      In a setting that is increasingly centered around causality, I really wish it would stop leading back to this dead end. The whole damn world may as well have survived with the sheer amount of loopholes involved in this. If a planet blows up and everyone who mattered survived anyway, why should I be invested in any of this?
