The best AoS models

Are the ones that reject all it's design philosophies and straight up just make warhammer fantasy models

    This has always been the case. Think of all the AoS models with original designs
    >Stormcast
    >Idoneth Deepkin
    >Kharadron
    >Kruleboyz
    >Lumineth
    these are all fricking garbage or mediocre at best, the good "original" factions like nighthaunt, hedonites, and sylvaneth are all based upon a few units from whfb expanded into their own faction. Likewise, all the good new models for AoS are for factions that existed in whfb.
    AoS players often are just coping about how their setting is better since fantasy players made fun of them so much, but they must admit it - if they removed these gay original factions, kept the AoS ruleset, and kept the setting in the old world then AoS would be infinitely better and only a very niche group of stormcast gays would disagree with me on this

          So i'm guessing you aren't going to buy any of the models in the OP, despite gushing over them. Maybe that's why GW doesn't do thrm too often

        you can argue whether the former are a fit for Warhammer but the latter are good models and classic WHkino all things considered
        I also don't know why you'd single out steamdwarfs when fyreslayers are the second-worst bastardization behind sigmarines in the entire line

        If Fantasy wasn't a part of the AoS design wheelhouse then Fyreslayers, Daughters of Khaine, and Sylvaneth wouldn't be a thing.

        Kruleboyz look like the original Warhammer orcs.

        AHAHAHA Go frick yourself, secondary

        >b-but the kruleboyz look like random dnd shit citadel made from 1983 bro, they're clearly warhammer fantasy kino despite orcs not looking like that for majority of warhammer's existence!
        >idoneth aren't moronic looking wacky high fantasy concepts because magic and non-horse mounts exist in the old world
        the absolute state of AoSgays. Go enjoy your game and models, you don't need to prove to fantasy enjoyers that your preference in style and miniatures is good. It just isn't warhammer fantasy

        New gw models are very good but dont feel good to look at or build/paint
        I'd rather play with some other quirky orcs

        lol there's nothing like this in warhammer fantasy, what the frick are you talking about. This is AoScore as frick, even high elf stuff looks grounded compared to that shit

        I kinda like them, they just dont fit into the Warhammer Ork aesthetic that was established for decades. IronJaws are a much better "fit" there.

          My point was that it's stupid to say that Fantasy isn't part of the AoS design philosophy, at most it's just something they don't use for every model or army.

            You have no ability to understand specific details, only abstractions.
            I can use the same words to describe the different models, but that does not mean the models look like each other.
            We can say there are similarities or even inspiration, but the do not look the same at all.

        The issue is, that whfb defines orks as clowns, whereas Kruelbois are more like actually dangerous orks.

    AoS is never going to really take off until they completely rework the armies of order to the point that these armies actually feel like the product of thriving societies.

    How do you go about this? rework cities of sigmar with fresh kits. These witch hunters are awesome. No reason that they can't find a way to take these aesthetics and make a multiracial kit of city watchmen.

    Bring dwarves full circle, give them back their kings and their armies of footsoldiers. make KO and fyreslayers a specific piece of an otherwise much larger pie.

    Incorrect. Those models are good, but there are also amazing models that fit AoS's high fantasy aesthetic. Look at Lady Olynder, for example. Matter of fact, I'd say overall the undead have gotten much better after the transition.

        But the same is true for many of their miniatures.

        GW is a miniature company, games are only a side product, keep this in mind.

    Frick off James Workshop, your shill-gaslighting is transparent as frick. These are closer to 40K models than WHFB ones.
