Irrelevance.
It's incredible how they managed to make the old marauders look more appealing. Who even wants "barbarians" that look like subhuman Americans and Brits?
I think it's interesting that people are so averse to this design when it's probably what barbarians will actually look like IRL after WW3
Yes because what is appealing in age of signage to all of us, is how realistic and accurate it is to modern or post apocalyptic America. It’s so confusing and wierd that people don’t love these designs
>I think it's interesting that people are so averse to this design when it's probably what barbarians will actually look like IRL after WW3
Is AoS a post WWIII apocalyptic setting? fricking have a nice day
>Is AoS a post WWIII apocalyptic setting?
Basically yes, if you consider Age of Chaos the 3rd war after initial emergance when Old Ones died (1st) and End Times (2nd)
>Is AoS a post WWIII apocalyptic setting? fricking have a nice day
Unironically yes. AoS is post apocalypse, like, twice.
Except AoS lacks the prerequisite debaucher society of freaks and morons that cut their own dicks off.
Thats purely a Slaneesh thing
>Who even wants "barbarians" that look like subhuman Americans and Brits?
Why wouldn't I want barbarians that look like barbarians?
Back converting the blood bowl norscans.
I wanted to like them but then I saw the obese lesbian on the left. How difficult is it to make barbarians look like barbarians instead of your weird friends from twitter, you fat 37yo sculptors working for GW?
Don't judge! She's that fat because she ate an entire orphanage while raping and pillaging, and it really got on her ass.
Why do they look like emo teens with daddy issues?
End Times 2 Elecrtrix Boogaloo
>Whats the future of Age of Sigmar?
Age of Sigmar: 40,000 of course.
It continues at its own pace I guess, not like it has much overlap with Old World besides both being fantasy settings

Everything you posted is bad, but I could see gw doing something like this.
Why is it always THIS haircut?
Pretty sure both chaos and stormcast models have it because they're both vaguely viking themed.
But you mean "viking" as in Vikings the series, right? Because real vikings never had sidecuts or undercuts
Yes because that's what the popular conception of vikings is now.
Sort of. There's some evidence for it based on coins and art, as well as extrapolation based on the haircuts the Normans used. There is the writing of an abbot complaining about one of his brothers wearing his hair in the "Danish style," but it is unclear if it was shaved or just short in parts. Regardless, it's probably influenced a lot by modern ideas of what is rebellious and barbaric.
>viking
Lol
It's cossack
probably less Cossacks and more based off the comic character Slaine from 2000AD and maybe some Scythian/Cimmirean stuff, the new models are not trying to evoke a singular real-world culture group.
there is literally nothing "viking themed" about shitty gay sidecuts
It’s because they are both libtard hipster themed lol
It's literally not "always". You can see other haircuts in that picture. You're just falling victim to confirmation bias.
Post hair
Holocaust hopefully
>mfw if GW was able to make figures worse than 30 year old ones.
>mfw I forgot my face
I wish they'd stop with the noodle hair
>barbarians
>not a single beard in sight
>not a single muscular one
This is beyond moronic.
none of the models have beards because none of the "sculptors" have ever been able to grow a beard
They should hire more people like us.
>not a single beard in sight
THANK YOU, something about these was off to me and I couldn't put my finger on it. No beards on barbarian raiders feels wrong.
Darkoath are based on Conan, not Vikings. Beareds aren't mandatory to that aesthetic
>inb4 they don't look like Conan the guy
They already made that model
They don't look like Conan, or maybe I forgot the part where fat women and zoomers Naruto running with skrilex haircuts(even the damn banner has it) were an intricate part of the lore.
Not everything has to look like a Dwarf except your mum
I don't know why they have weapons. They can kill with their ugly faces. Please tell me there's enough helmuts on the sprue.
No future. WFB is back.
TOTAL SIGGER DEATH
Warhammer used to be made by history nerds that also loved fantasy. The Perry's for example were historical reenactors and thus had an excellent grasp of how actual armor worked and moved. The sculptors at GW today are all diversity hires that love funko-pop D&D fantasy and think history is problematic.
Doesn't help that GW doesn't allow sculptors to work on their pwn projects, instead everything is a team project to ensure no one can build a resume or style popular with fans.
I love this image as an IQ test of the person posting it.
The thing is a 40k model with a head swap fighting an AoS model, yet vidya gays believe it's a classic thing from fantasy
I made the image you moron. It's a Golden Deamon winner's conversion. It's what GW could make and should be releasing.
death of the author
your intent matters not
So you know it's Lord Solar fighting Akhelian King and you purposely try to spread misinformation?
See
I don't know why you AoS morons are so blind.
looks like a reiksguard knight
Way to miss the point tard
Is photographic memory of GW models a requirement of entry? It strikes me that GWgays do pretty much everything except play wargames.
>Is photographic memory of GW models a requirement of entry?
Understanding what you're saying/showing is a basic rule of communication, not warhammer.
Hilarious that you failed at communication, obsessing over irrelevant details rather than the actual message. Typical faux nerd moronation.
>obsessing over irrelevant details
Core of your message beign a falsehood is a detail?
Unironically yes, stay gatekept.
disingenuous moron
Man the grogs really didn't like you calling them out.
>The sculptors at GW today are all diversity hires
>muh conversion
Modern GW designers made the sculpt on the left you're fauning over you absolute clown. The golden daemon winner did not fundamentally change anything about the sculpts other than some reposing and some bits swaps for the rider. It is still a fundamentally nu-GW design.
No, the knight is an old Empire knight except with a demigryph rider's head. So that's really old stuff and some pre-AOS stuff. The sea monster and horse are newer troon-hammer stuff but I actually like the Idoneth range. GW has completely abandoned the historical esthetic now that the old generation is gone.
It was made using Lord Solar Leontus as the base for the conversion and various other bits for the rider.
Just the horse, stop speed-reading.
>various other bits for the rider.
I stated the rider was made from made from various bits. Yes, the dragon is also from another kit but I thought that was obvious.
Yes, we've both written this. What's your point?
>speed-reading
There is a word for this. Skim.
So just the horse...
well done idiot, you btfo'd yourself
>GW has completely abandoned the historical esthetic
Yes that the point. People want fantasy in their fantasy setting.
Fat black women aren't fantasy, that's just downtown.
Cool nothing to do with what I said
>fantasy setting
>everyone is fatter and uglier than irl
>barded horse for 40K looks better as a fantasy mini than barded horse for AoS
This is not a win for AoS or its style
AoS version wasn't even released when he was making it, only old wfb minis around and they lost to 40k
Is that halfling with knife on horse?
Silly lorelets, that's no horse, that is a EQUINEX STRIDE-STEED™ which is like a horse, but due to magic completely copyrightable IP.
Duh.
Does anybody have the meme of the dwarf showing up and the girl throws out like 30 copyrighted terms? It’s like age of sigmar, citites of sigmar, dispossessed, warden king all to just say “Dwarf king”
It’s not about copyright, it’s about search results. Google dwarf miniature and you get any number of results unrelated to Warhammer. Google duardin miniature or Kharadron Overlords and you get AoS.
If GW cared about copyright they’d have done more than the absolute bare minimum when it came to TOW army names where everything is pretty much named as it is in Fantasy since the project as of now seems to be directed at former Fantasy players rather than new blood.
Okay, that was funny. Enjoy your >you
What the frick is wrong AoS proportions?
What the frick are you talking about
Be grateful they are not the 40k giraffes attilian rough riders are on
It's not GW's faoult that nerds these days are not military history fans.
The nerds that are interested in military history aren’t allowed in GW.
So we agree. If you're into military historia, play anything else and stop crying at diverse marauders.
>let me make everything worse in peace
The bin
Big titty anime girls but they worship chaos and have penises.
This is the current GW fanbase.
Not a single woman will look at this and want to play fantasy. The women from gw look like men because troons are the target audience.
This individual has never heard the trope of 'good guy in a bad system' then
>The women from gw look like men because troons are the target audience.
They look bad because you need to paint female faces differently than male faces. The style that GW enforces is just really bad at it.
>we aren't losing anything that was worth keeping
SO SPAKE I, INSTAGRAM homosexual #1,080, ARBITER OF THE HOBBY, IT SHALL EVER CHANGE BY MY WILL
I mean... I guess if you gave a lady a helmet and sword she could beat a man in a fight.
But the reason so few cultures send women to war is that they aren't as physically strong (sure they can be resilient or good shots) but especially because males can't make new people.
The general idea of a nation's army is to protect its women not endanger them because they are the only people who can make more people.
In a fantasy setting I think you can get away with women scouts, women bows, women mages and even standard bearers, but without some magical potion that makes them big and muscly they are just going to end up in an Orc soup cauldron with some mushrooms and parsnips.
Ironically women did/do have a place in war as spies and informants but normies would flip their shit if an Empire lady sucked off Archaeon to learn where the longboats were landing.
>everyone can be a knight
>still divided by class and blood
absolute state of these late-capitalist troglodytes
Looks like it's flesheater courts all over again it seems; a bunch of hype minis and then snatching defeat from the jaws of victory for one specific reason. Flesheaters are way too gorey for almost the entire population's tastes, but these are just too fricking ugly. What the hell is this shit? No one is going to buy this. If you're going to put fat b***hes, make them hot with big fat asses and babyfaces not like grognar the destroyer. There are literally two trannies on this art. No one is going to buy this shit.
But everyone knows that when people think what they want out of Warhammer, they think morbidly obese frowning women.
I unironically like Bertha the Ill-Disposed
The top of her boot is about to burst
>those faces
>those hair cuts
Head swaps may save them, but holy shit why is there a fat?
Matter of time before the ogres are reworked to be body positive/against diet culture
>got their game back after 10 years
>got new models for their game after 10 years
>they literally cannot stop obsessing over aos
>the wfb thread is practically dominated by talk about aos
>they start threads about aos on a daily basis
>the only mention of wfb in the aps thread is the one shitter trying to bait people
Lol, cucked
No one mentioned TOW you dumb homosexual. This is about the very questionable art style that AoS has taken. Funny how a thread that isn't praise of some AoS minis in your eyes MUST mean it's a console war thread bullshit
Yes this definitely wasn't a bait thread so a bunch of seething homosexualy battles grogs could wank each other off over troons, blacks and women models, how silly of me
Who hurt you?
So tell us why you think modern Chaos marauders being composed of fat women with sidecuts is a good thing?
It's a literal nothing thing, you homosexuals just can't help yourselves getting all twisted over it and honestly it's fricking funny how mindbroken it gets you
Yeah sorry anon but I like my Chaos marauders to be barbaric bearded muscly dudes, not body positive dykes. If you think changing the fundamental image of a Warhammer unit, one that's been around for 3-4 decades, into something more "modern" and PC is nothing then fair enough - you enjoy your constipated fat kweens. I'll stick to the former, grisly Marauders.
Sounds kind of gay, ngl.
Cope. The Diversityoath Marauders are awful and you know it, but you feel compelled to defend them because something something grogs something something console war
You seem to have confused not giving a shit with being really obsessed, easy mistake to make for seething grog homosexuals. Spoken as someone who was playing fantasy before said marauders were released.
>these new models are bad
>OBSESSED! OBSESSED! SEETHING!
clap clap moron. If you don't actually give a shit then why do you keep posting in this thread? Bit of a contradiction.
Because the seething here is as bad as the seething in the wfb thread and it's funny, dress it up through gritted teeth however you want a big chunk of the grogs on this site are utterly cucked by aos
Would love to see all the posts you've made in relation to "seething grogs" and TOW. I'm 100% certain that you're as obsessed with them/TOW as you claim they are with AoS.
>I’m defending it all day all thread for culture war reasons; but YOU are obsessed because you said “lol it’s gay”
Meh, better poses, better looking shields and weapons, expressive faces that don't look like melted wax
I like AOS and overall it's vastly superior to fantasy, but yeah, not a fan of the new marauders. One of the few misses
>one of the few misses
Dude, there is like 2 armies out of a dozen released that don't look like utter garbage. A few almost acceptable centerpiece models sprinkled there and rhere doesn't change things much.
A fair chunk of AoS armies are still using warhammer fantasy aesthetics bro.
Almost all of Destruction and a fair chunk of Death and Chaos are directly inspired by the old world. Hell the Gitz are practically just a continuation of old design motifs and tropes that were used for the night goblins.
Order has the most 'new' armies, and a fair chunk of those are pretty bad. But thats still only one grand faction out of 3.
>Dude, there is like 2 armies out of a dozen released that don't look like utter garbage.
I don't disagree with this part, but I liked the Kruelboyz so maybe I am biased
>A few almost acceptable centerpiece models sprinkled there and rhere doesn't change things much.
I do agree that AoS goes way too hard on the centerpiece models however. How the hell do we not have Akhelian infantry or Kurnothi units yet?
>I don't disagree with this part
I meant don't agree, have not finished my coffee yet
The armies that look shit are the ones that have decades old models like Skaven.
The rest look pretty good, most of the fantasy models still being used aren't bad as they're 8th edition stuff like with elves.
My god those models are terrible
Are "people" really thinking that these are/were any good?
I like them. They look like a dysgenic horde of chaos worshiping scum. Not Norse bodybuilders.
They don't even look like that, they're just Twitter users doing a larp not actual warriors.
>dysgenic horde of chaos worshiping scum
>Twitter users
I don't get what sort of distinction you're trying to make. These seem to be practically synonyms.
The dysgenic horde of chaos worshipping scum are strong and scary warriors who kill people and defeat armies of warriors.
The only battle dysgenic Twitter troons like you fight, is defending age of sigmar and other ESG corpo slop, online all day everyday.
>strong and scary warriors
I see. I tend to think of marauders as the opposite. They're the chaos tards that couldn't cut it at warriors. The malnourished scum that's pushed in front of imperial firing lines to get them to use up ammunition.
>troons like you
Project a little less cuckboy. Lol
>1/4+/4+/-/1
Freud-tribe pathology on display.
>honestly it's fricking funny
idk anon you don't really sound like a happy guy having a laugh, you sound really angry and upset about all of this in fact
Strong women, troons and blacks judging by this release
Nothing. Age of Smegmar was stillborn. It has no past and it will have no future.
I almost wish I could join in the pandering. I wonder if it makes them all genuinely happy that they're being so inclusive or whether it's some kind of fake impulse to seem amiable.
Holy shit, it's so fricking cringe. And i say that as black dude.
I mean it isn't literally my wife's son thing, the dude just married a black woman and had kids with her. I remember having to look that up in the WFG thread because of incessant cuckposting.
It's because he deserves the mockery more than anything else.
Anon, I'll tell you this much: having Mexican women or men in positions of power and/or Mexicans in media doesn't make your family living in constant fear of violent expulsion feel any better.
Others are pointing to the obvious cuck-posting but what stood out to me is
>wow, so diverse! can I have one for free? I promise I will shill it on social media (for those sweet extra virtue points)!
These are exactly the kind of people who will make it seem like there is something to be gained by pandering to their kind because they are loud on social media when they will never actually put their money where there mouth is when it matters.
GORLOCK
She's like an ogre...with none of the cool bits of ogres.
How depressing.
Save the fat chicks for the literal fat faction GW, at least you could make something weird/cool out of it.
we had this song and dance a thousand times before. AoS is a solid game with a rather big fanbase (compared to other tabletop war games). Its future will probably hold some development in both good and bad directions. i presonally dislike a few of the new darkoath models (the fat lesbian banner bearer is stupid) but some are pretty damn great (looking at the guy behind the drummer and the guy at the center). Worst case if i ever buy them, i will simply get some warcry darkoath and kitbash them. Its what i did for my khorne barbarians.
>we had this song and dance a thousand times before. AoS is a solid game with a rather big fanbase
Secondary.
Spring 2023 GW literally stopped sending AoS models to their warehouses because they were stocking up on 40k for the 10ed launch.
Fall 2022 has AoS at 2nd place, and I can't find the fall 2023 list, did ICv2 not publish it?
>did ICv2 not publish it?
Nolt yeat I assume.
>AoS is a solid game with a rather big fanbase
>Whats the future of Age of Sigmar?
Continuing as GW's premier means of selling fantasy minis, with edition changes every three to six years and a continuous release cycle of rules supplements which are destined to become obsolete in the next year or two.
Continue being the second best selling wargame while fat grogs cry about it
As it now.
Designated cespool for all shit to improve GW's ESG score
It will continue to sell like hot cakes.
It will continue to sell better than the Old World ever did, or ever will.
Myself and countless others will continue to play and love it.
It will never be as successful as 40k.
That is the future of Age of Sigmar.
End of thread.
Facts.
>It will continue to sell like hot cakes.
Oh yeah it's SELLING FAST
Selling far better than your piece of shit game that is such a failure it's already had two factions cancelled 🙂
Dominion was their best fantasy launch, ever.
These guys were actually sculpted by GW's first full time minority female sculptor, as her first solo project rather than contributing piecemeal to other models. They've had a black guy sculpting before but never a woman (although I think she's actually mixed race or something). I don't think the models are very good, but everyone has to start somewhere.
>make professional product consumer good
>not allowed to be critical of said product if it's bad because it's their first one
Welcome to ESG. You can’t criticize something if its non-white. If it’s female and non-white, then you better worship it.
>If it’s female and non-white, then you better worship it
I already do that with Shantae and it's at least good.
Holy samegayging.
You realize you can view the number of posters at the bottom of the page dipshit?
Holy samegayging.
>I don't think the models are very good, but everyone has to start somewhere.
yeah, they usually start before they're making products professionally for a massive corporation
idk I think these look pretty good
why do people care so much about the age of sigmar? how old is he anyway?
HOW in the FRICK do you get from Kino models such as this to that generic EDI/WOKE shit like that?
Who wants this? Why is it a thing now?
What dose work mean and how do these models fit that description?
It's souless inclusive leftist junk that has been created to tick as many diversity quotas as possible.
There would literally be a table or a graph they need to meet a certain inclusive quota instead of making thematically correct models

How much does GW pay you?
Or are you the legit cuckolded target audience?
Cool so you can't answer my question, is this the level of brain rot you get from watching hours of Quartering and Daily Wire?
I don't want blacks, trannies or women in my games
It's called gatekeeping and it's good for a reason.
Great just say that from the get-go. I'm just curious if people can explain meaningless buzzword like woke
>morbidly obese woman in a culture that is either in a perpetually food starved environment, or constantly on the move while at war
Lmao this isn't Age of Nigeria what the frick are you talking about. They hunt giant monsters and eat shitload of protein.
Woke means anything pol does not like.
I'm cool with blacks, but every named character shouldn't be one.
It's a fantasy setting so women are fine, but should be witch elves or some form of eye candy.
Troons is preposterous. Really hope it doesn't come to that
I’m cool with blacks, just make it make sense. If you want Black person minis, give us araby as a faction or a new African faction, don’t make imperial Germans black for no reason, or make norscans black
>don’t make imperial Germans black for no reason
Tbqh Empire does have colonies in the South Lands
How did they become nobles in reikland DOE? I’d bet my life the answer either doesn’t exist or is incredibly contrived.

I do not care
The bin hopefully.
Blacks, transexuals, disabled and gay CAD models painted by literally no ones.
The other day someone reminded me that they tried to make a Smegmar game and it was totally DOA, I think this IP is just completely doomed
