Happened in 3 out of 5 games at the weekend. It's left a mark 🤣

I don't know if that would actually make the game better/worse but it would certainly fix a personal bugbear. I'd also stop warmachines benefitting from obscuring because there are only so many screaming bells i can see .5" away from a small place of power that are apparently invisible 🤯

I'd change it so that units within a regiment have to deploy within 3" of 2 other units in their regiment or within 3" of the regiment's hero or basically anything in this vein that means you drop each regiment in an area of the battlefield together rather than piecemeal all over the place.

Before I look at making one, has anyone built a digital version of the AOS Path to Glory roster?

Do you like AoS? Do you want a romantic weekend away in an industrial estate in Bristol? Well have I got the weekend for you! Over the valentines weekend come to Bristol, play warhammer and maybe eat a middling chilli! We’ve had a few spots open up so message Jonny or me for more details. ❤️

Damn, you're correct 😀. I think everything has a spider now.

By my reckoning its 860. 85x10 for the little lads and 10 for the boss. Cant think of another unit that would come close to this.

Drop the 2nd shaman, go with auxiliaries and put another unit of riders in?

I would like new grave guard for SBG, a wizard/priest hero on goregrunta for my IJ and some new flagellants for Cities please Santa.

Amazing, thank you. I shall compare this to my settings this evening 👍

Alright chap, I'm also on the K1 (which I also really rate) but I don't think i'd have this done in a day with my settings. Would you be willing to share your key settings as I may look to change mine?

Well they'd be about my age now so would work well if required.

Cheers chap. Its always a fantastic event and why we ended up with so many players wanting to take part this time ❤️

Absolute cracking time at @ajghostarm.bsky.social's Carnage teams. Not sure how long the wife will allow this to stay on the mantelpiece though.

This is our third time running a narrative. Its been roughly once every nine months or so between them. They've gone down well so you should enjoy it but you're also welcome to pop down and just have a look and talk to people 👍

Simon Adcock @iamforehead84.bsky.social · 13/11/2024
Let me know if have any Qs as i'm happy to tell you more about what we're doing.

Simon Adcock @iamforehead84.bsky.social · 13/11/2024
The game is still played with the usual phases/rounds and almost 100% of the rules (we've removed manifestations etc) and unlike matched play the games are not all symmetrical so you may have an upper/lower hand for some. Ultimately the intention is to tell stories on the tabletop and have fun.

Simon Adcock @iamforehead84.bsky.social · 13/11/2024
Great question, our narrative has an over-arching story and related tasks happening throughout the weekend along with custom battleplans that reflect a part of the location. Players will also bring lists which may be themed or have their own stories (sometimes their own rules).

This place has gone wild this week so I'm using this as an opportunity to reach all of my new followers. We have a 2-day Age of Sigmar narrative event on the 18/19th Jan which has a few tickets left. Derby, UK. £50. Pack is here: bit.ly/DoomofTalaxis Please share!

Listen, folks. We've all got to do more RTing here. There's no algorithm, so seeing new stuff kinda relies on it. Likes are lovely, but they only get seen by the OP. Engagement is good, but re-engagement is even better.

Anyone with experience of the AK texture pastes? My dark earth has become a springy putty and i'm not sure whether to just mix with water will bring it back or if something else would be better.

Simon Adcock @iamforehead84.bsky.social · 08/11/2024
You beat me to it. Yep. this one is on me for not using the app for list building 😭
010
Simon Adcock @iamforehead84.bsky.social · 08/11/2024
Hahaha, i'm a big fat cheat. I checked and it didn't say unique so assumed it could. In the app it says very clearly that you can't reinforce them. I shall blame Listbot for this rather than accept my clear incompetence.

Simon Adcock @iamforehead84.bsky.social · 08/11/2024
I ran a unit of reinforced vyrkos bloodborn for a fun list on Wednesday and they were surprisingly powerful with the +1 to wound on the charge. Plus the ability to bugger off at the end of the turn on a 3+ is really good too. Vargskyr however was pants.

Cheers man. We had to move it initially because it clashed with WHW teams 😀. Its a great time to be playing AOS with all the choice of events. A decent gang of the lads from BASH (myself included) will be at slaughter tho so will come and say hello

Hola! We're still relatively new to narrative as this is only our third event but they've been fun to run and seem to have gone down well 👍

What better way to start posting in this bright new world than to promote our next narrative AOS 2-dayer in Derby on the 18/19th January.
