I love your range reviews, they really help me with deciding which models to acquire. Would you consider putting your range reviews in a playlist, so they are easily accessible in one place? I don't want to miss any ;)
The beards? THE BEARDS?! They're Dwafs of course they need beards! Any dwarf is a naked dwarf without his/her beard (especially the Fyreslayers).
More seriously great video it really make me want to buy dome models, like all of your range reviews.
You do realise they have literal beard cases
I mean in WH Fantasy the dwarfs featured helmets that had beard-guards as well. And for the obvious reason that the dawi attached significant cultural importance to their beards and they don't want them damaged in battle. Makes sense that their beard-guard would therefore also be stylized as a beard itself -- much like their kharadron successors, apparently.
Drinking game idea: take a shot every time Kirioth says 'gubbins'.
Noo. I would die with that much alcohol haha
A good (or maybe very bad) idea, although it’s traditionally spelled with a z at da end
this makes me want to do a "Squat Guard" or "Squat Mechanicus" army
When i look at the Troups of the Kharadron Overlords, i seen a Chainsword in middle of them, Servo Armors and futuristic looking guns. XD Now i want Squats in 40K so badly ^^
I've been using them as GSC in Kill Team. The weapon loadouts line up really well (shotguns, flamers, stubbers, big drills and multi-shot cannons) and the skywardens to count as pure genestealers to represent that they have Swift And Deadly.
You could almost use them as the basis of a new “squat” line
But why? The Kharadron are far cooler.
@Michael Fox Controversial opinion: AoS is better. Definitely as a game, potentially as a setting.
@Michael Fox my point was it would be a waste of good models to make something worse.
I've been thinking of painting up these guys as Iron Warriors and calling them Chaos Squats.
@@Rob749s Literally my entire gaming area made vows to never touch the game and deter any and all new players from ever starting after the killing the whole fantasy line fiasco. Local gaming store holds some boxes just because they are obligated to do so, but they have literally zero sales from AoS range outside occasional conversion boxes. Hard to get into a game when it has created so much bad blood.
I would love a Adeptus Titanicus range review.
I love how the first guy is basically a squat space marine on a mecha blimp.
The Squat Charters are still intact... therefore as long as it’s squat made it’s not tech heresy ;)
Making them now. First aos army and i have a reallllly cool conversion idea for my army!
Oh look, someone made the Dwemer a playable army!
watching these videos has re-lit my love for warhammer! these vids are one of the highlights of my day!
This is one of those factions I would just love to have do much. But they look absolutely terrifying to try and paint
These looks cool especially if you like steam punk, but they look quite intimidating to paint well with sooo many details and many of their models being quite busy.
Kharadron are such a beatiful army, one day i plan to have a small sky-fleet of them just to have them hang somewhere on the ceiling in my workplace, as if their passing by in search of aether gold.
Occasionally, in these range reviews Kirioth hits the nail on the head with what's 'wrong' with a model or the idea that made the model. Bookmark these people. Next time you start a project, give the appropriate 'Range Review' a watch then have it it!
Love them, they are some of the best factions GW have put out in years. Now bring on the Squats!
When I saw the bigger gunship, I instantly thought of the Flying Ship from Moomin. Good times!
I've just had a bad idea. Buy a large scale battleship (like say a scale Bismark) and dwarf it up into an airship. O crap, I think my wallet just started crying again.
Thanks for the video Kiri!
The first thing that came into my twisted little head when seeing the flying ships.......... They'd make great Ork (40k) aircraft
"I'd lewt dat"
That's interesting because the orks have the most sensible aircraft in the game so far.
They'd make great Ork (40k) *Freebooterz* anything
@@mariusdragoe2888 steampunk orks would fit too
I kind of love the idea of Dwarven AoS tech becoming 40k Ork Freeboota tek, also I feel like there’s some heavy slaanesh Heretek/Demon Engine potential and not just because of the ‘yellow’ metals and the purple...
If anyone intends on starting a squat army(Leagues of Votann) in 40k now that they’re back I’d actually say this is a better alternative to use since:
A: They look more dwarfy
B: They’re prolly cheaper
C: Steampunk dwarfs is always a yes
Neat to see you doing more Sigmar stuff! Maybe the rats next?
I think this faction is the coolest new Army ( fleet) I plan on collecting a force, even though I hear they are pretty weak on the tabletop. Sky-ships have always been a thing for me since I read " John Carter: Warlord of Mars" comic adaptation by Marvel Comics back in the 70s.
I hope they introduce another faction of mental sky-ships to fight in the skies, with boarding actions and the like.Would be sick!
Anyway, thanks for the range reveiw! Hope you plan to do Admech somewhere down the line! Rock on buddy!
The new book makes them a lot better!
I play admech. I have a frigate converted as a disintegrater. The white dwarf tech priest model released as a store special as a Dominus and three floating Kharadrons as the new flying infantry coming out.
I really like cutting those sphere in half and using them as power shields for my imperial walkers and armigers. Pretty nice tbh
also the large ship would make a great proxy of an Emperors Children Titan sonic weapon lol
I don't usually do Sigmar but have made an exception for these. I was concerned when so many went to direct sales from GW website only as that has often been an early warning that the model was going to be discontinued. Still, am slowly building up a stash of models and yes, definitely see the crossover potential with the Leagues models.
The Kharadron balloons are going to be great when the flying admech units arrive, though i have to say their davinci esque wings are already a work of art on their own, just throwing the idea out there though.
On the ironclad, you can use the two 'balloons' on top as the body and 'head' of an admech walker. the smaller balloon is the head, the bigger one is the body. Just need to make legs and stick them on there. And possibly a turret where the guy sits for a funky Dunestrider or something.
Hi could you do an idoneth deepkin review please :)
Seconded!
Would love to see your take on the AoS orruks.... and how you think they could be converted to 40k orks (let’s be honest they generally look a lot ‘sharper’)
Aaaaaaaah! Now I want these for my steampunk IG/Admech allied army.
If necromunda Goliaths could fit on those airships I'd have a fleet for my Koopa themed gang!
Would love to see clan Skryer make fliers to go toe to toe with these
The little bombs on the gun hauler make me want to make a dreadnought with a standin for a missile launcher being a bunch of those on a bandoleer and a claw to chuck them like giant lawn darts.
I'd love a gloomspite gitz one if you're keen on more AoS
These look great. I think they have potential to be discworld inspired dwarves with some tweaking and toning the steam feel down a bit.
You could make a very interesting admech force just by throwing these guys and skitarii models together.
Oh and, please review the admech range next! I want to hear what you think of my personal favourite army!
You can buy Thundriks Profiteers in their Underworlds warband box. £2.50 extra from GW to get cards and stuff. Also it's not GW direct so other stores sell it as well.
These guys kinda remind me of units from like an A video game , they all have very obvious and clear purposes, but are still very creative
Oh, I am making Gretchin Sky Pirates for my first AoS army... just in time for AoS 3.0
Love the Admiral. He looks like a Dwarf in proper power armor. Perfect for Squats or any kind of magitek fantasy setting.
Horary my army don't worry I actually play them as Overlords in local tournaments and finally with there recent book they are finally decent. Also when you was talking about the Thunders weapons they are shooting aether gold which is basicly a liquid gas that harders outside into bullets before it reaches there targets also the reason why they can fly a little like Helium.
I'm still sad that we never got the flying zeppelins in WFB that were constantly mentioned.
At least we did get the models eventually.
And Matthias Eliasson with his 9th ed WAP finally gave us proper rules in WFB for them.
I tried to purchase the techpriest white dwarf on amazon last night but the listing got switched up and they ended up dispatching a regular enginseer...
How is this relevant? Well, I may be able to return it and get a refund but I figured that if I cannot, then at least I could attach the enginseer’s backpack and mechandrites to the Endrinmaster’s body to make something of a stand-in squat tech-priest/guildmaster type miniature. Just a thought for those who love the thought of having a somewhat excusable Squat conversion in their admech army
Been away for a while, didn't know squats were back
The dreadnaught ship is aweao.e for bits lots of extra pistols and stuff in the sprue
I used these guys as a Scion Kill Team. They worked out fine.
Makes me miss those silly squat terminator things... Actually... I don't play anymore but perhaps my guard need some squat auxiliaries to keep them company on the shelf, just for old times sake :D
Not sure about element, but most independent stores can get direct only stuff. Mine even does last chance stuff! Great video thanks.
This whole range just looks amazing. Just painting and displaying them would be enough. Looking forward to the next range review. Keep up the good work.
My LGS was trying to sell on AoS Rick (the owner) said "they are Sky pirate, steam punk, Dwarfs." I said "say no more sir, here is my card."
Cool models for sure. You should do one for Gloomspite gitz
Every time i have a look at this range, i wonder how hard they would be to chop up, head swap and turn them into a 40k astronaut force
could you do a forgeworld orks one please? :)
Imagine mixing these guys with some tau having some 40k hybrid mech drone army remember epic 40k where they had these big killer trains with loads of guns I can’t remember the names for them get some mad creation made Kirioth haha
Been thinking about getting these guys xD
I don’t know I’ve begun to be fond of AoS for a bit now, tho I wish for the chaos dwarves
I am missing a few models for my KO army
I previously had no interest in AoS, however this makes me want to start. Flying dwarves 😁
I dont even collect fantasy, and these guys still look great and tempting to me!
But the monopose still kills me GW..there was a time you would buy random kits just for the extra bits to cannibalise. Now its a pain to kitbash even from within the same range *sad conversion tears*
They're one of those armies that looks awesome but must be a pain to paint (the ships anyway)
Can't believe you didn't mention the widely explored opportunity to use Kharadron Overlords to bring back the squats! Or I missed it...
Squats are coming. These were the test run.
19:15 Flying Baneblade?
You could have called this episode "Gushin' bout Gubbins" and no one would have argued with you lol.
A range review under 45 minutes? Impossible...
Could we all take a second to appreciate the word gubbins... We need to bring it back
my man is talking like he's doctor frankenstein this entire video
using them for my Squatarii. xD
Leagues of Votann with a Steampunk flair anyone?
I think you should do a review on slaves to darkness. The kits are full of weapons and cloaks that work well for conversions and characters as well as having really nice new monsters.
And the heads work rlly well for homebrew space marines as the neck is almost identical
3 words: Emperor's. Children. Typhon.
No trikes though.
One word for you all Squats you don't have to "borrow" from any of the models then.
Reminds me a lot of the dwemer from skyrim.
The whole faction is a way to make flying Skaven
Just give the infantry units lazguns and just call them for what they are ... Squats
can't wait for gotrek to meet them, then have a ptsd of the airship
I'm kind of split on them. Some of their elements look really good but others just look ridiculous. Still better than the other flavor of dwarf in aos
No fyreslayer love?
They could look so cool if they looked a little more menacing. Scrap the tophat and beards.
ironjawz review. nice 5 min video.
Its just a shame that 4 up saves are useless beacuse anything got rend theses days and 4up to hit and wound makes alot of shots medicore at best unless you get lucky and roll above avrege and most of the multi shot things have no rend... I mean I love the faction.. But, its sadly destroyed by a bad warscroll. Not to talk about stuff that has minus to hit..
WHFB Dwarfs >>> whatever the fuck these goofy over-the-top monstrosities are
first
second
What I fucking HATE about Age of Sigmar is how it’s forgoing the aesthetic of classic Fantasy to pander to the 40k crowd. Like these miniatures are literally designed to be kitbashed into 40k. One could even argue that the reason AoS is selling well is because 40k players are buying these for exclusive kitbashing motives. Like it’s an afterthought that the game itself exists.
These are absolutely horrible imo
Sorry kirioth, I used to have respect for you, however, 6 unskippable ads in a 25 minute video is unforgivable. When I come to your videos I want to watch you.or hear what you have to say. I don't want to hear about RAID FUCKING SHADOW LEGENDS.
You have lost a few subs for this as me and my gaming community have decided that going forward. You are no longer worth the effort.
I respect your opinion on this matter and hopefully some feedback would be appreciated but until you sort this. We will be going elsewhere.
Just my two cents that I’d prefer you focus more on the models for what they are instead of gushing so much about how much you could use their parts for other projects.
