    I think the stuff that’s gonna go legends must tick at least 2 out of 4 of the following boxes: 1. Non book/movie character (i.e GW creation) 2. Long OOP Metal/Finecast sculpt 3. Redundant profile to an army list that is rarely seen 4. Thematically/visually does not fit the Peter Jackson LOTR ‘look’ Stuff like the Golden King, Gulavhar, the GW Fanfic Nazgul, Osgiliath Veterans, Feral Uruks, Khand + Far Harad, Stormcallers, Khardush are all in danger Additionally, nothing that has had a plastic/Forge World release in the last 5 years will go Jay plays the game a lot, so I’m confident he’ll choose wisely

    It's funny, I have my own wolf pack ready with 1 chieftain, 6 classic wargs (that I use an alternate profile with Fight 4 ^^) and 12 fell wargs. Just need a couple of werewolfs and we're good 😁 For the v7, I did a list of all the armies I could think about (on LL base) and I have in total over 100 lists. 28 for the Armies of The Lord of The Rings (14 Good - 14 Evil), 23 for the Armies of The Hobbit (14 Good - 9 Evil) and 50 for the Armies of Middle-Earth (33 Good - 17 Evil), including some alt book armies version (Defenders of Helm's Deep with Eomer instead of elves).

  • @Tillman581
    @Tillman581 5 днів тому

    I'm not sure if I was misunderstanding you, or you read the legacies bit wrong? Legacies isn't a book, it's the last gasp of models they won't be making/updating ever again (and their middle finger to 3d-printing/scrach building folk), like how they are phasing out the firstborn for Primaris, but if they just deleted them in one shot there would be riots from SM players. Like a large number of Forge World being removed and making your 200 dollar tank become a paperweight. Most of those will be book based units I'd assume Other than that, sad about the loss of strikes, would rather that go into an optional rules area, rather than just being scrapped entirely. My club certainly used them a lot. Most batreps use them, and given that's what got me backnjnto the game, that's old hat to me, so rather jarring I think.

Every Gothmog legion looks like every other Gothmog legion. That sounds very very dull.

    I think the main thing that needs changing are the Matched Play Scenarios. Too many of them are straight up unbalanced and/or unfun, either depending on who has priority (Maelstrom) or just broken depending on lists, like Contest. Others like Heirlooms always seem to elicit eye rolls at tournaments. When only 50% or so scenarios are fun, it needs fixing

    You're mixing up Armies of Middle-Earth (a third book of profiles, released slightly later but still just as valid as the first two) and Legacies of Middle-Earth (a free PDF of profiles that are no longer going to be supported/used in official tournaments).

    I’m a new comer to actually playing, but I’m hooked it’s my jam. I was so bummed when they announced the new edition and i thought here I go again (as I’ve invested into kill team over the last 12 months and that’s looking sad for the armies I have). But after reading the email this morning I’m pumped it sounds positive and sounds like Jay is looking after us all.

    The timing of this new edition is crazy for me because I have only started to properly collect some armies to try and play the game (I've had some models since the late 2000s but never actually played the game). Now that I'm finally getting into it and have learned all the rules and strategies from guys like you, they go and change to a new edition 😂 thank god I haven't gotten around to buying the books yet

"Feelsweirdman" and I dont know how i feel about taking All speciel strikes away. It takes a lot of the combat learning scal away, but makes the model tactical varity away (it needed af rework, not a removel. imo)

It is after all over 1200 danish crowns wasted on Books alone. I still dont know if i can take shields on My commanders sets now, because we Are waiting on New rules.

    The one reason i don't like army of gothmog is that you can do it better with Regular Mordor. Everything of the Legion bonus is on Gothmog. And if you don't fight a men army, you don't really get anything other that gothmog is legendary and heros benefit from his standfast. With regular Mordor you get the Mordor Army bonus that is quite good(as long you habe the numbers). And you can have more diffrent heros like Kadush or Gorbag. Also you still have Hatred Men in 3" of Gothmog. That "time of the orc has come" is 12" is enough.

    I reckon Shadow of Rhudaur may just have the shade special rule of reducing dice rolls in the duel. I think fight value and defence will be revamped - lots of complaints around lake town militia with the same defence as numernorean soldiers. Hoping Aragorn and Gandalf the white get some love and better represent the powerhouses they are in the stories. Interested to see updates to monsters, some fun ideas on other comments. And imagine there’ll be a tonne of new special rules based which will be cool.

      Australian META so incredibly hard to talk about. It differs from state to state and each tournament, sometimes even each gaming group has a different 'Meta' the lists that show up are always changing. The 'top tier players' always run different lists and different play styles as well which really makes it hard to nail down a meta. In the UK and Europe the 'best players' use the same list all year if not for longer and the players looking to move from middle of the pack to the top, copy those lists and game play styles. -Sean

    One thing they should change is to make models with monster charge not able to knock down models with a bigger Base. For examle a problem with the bears is that have monster charge with Str. 8. With str. 8 you can knock down Dragons and Gundabad Trolls....
