    It's worth noting that the cogsmith can allow a helblaster to reroll ANY dice it wants on its attacks not just the whole thing. So if you roll a double you can just reroll one of them or if you dont want a 1 you can risk rerolling just that.

    Going off of what Matt said about The Undying King and how they depicted Shyish. I think it would be kind of cool if either there were new humans for the Vampire faction. Or maybe 1 in 4 units in the Vampire army can be Freeguild (or Cities) units which would represent the human followers or thrall followers.

    2:02:00 Privateer Press's Iron Kingdoms setting and games are at least as gonzo and non-traditional fantasy as AoS is, and have been around longer - they started while WFB was still a thing. The old (and long dead) Crucible game from the original FASA was nearly as bizarre, albeit nowhere near as popular. Chronopia was also pretty far out there, albeit not quite as much so as AoS. There have been a couple of different stabs at doing wars in pseudo-Christian Hell, Heaven, or both over the years that were at least as weird as AoS, but they never caught on.

    *best soulblight strategy: hope for the doubleturn* . I really cannot recommend *One Page Rules* Age of Fantasy enough. Rules and armybooks are free to download, a beautiful fanmade Age of Sigmar alternative, no double turns, alternating unit activations, great balance, very easy to learn. Just give it a shot, worth it for all Warhammer fantasy fans! (and for all those age of sigmar fans that still find the double turn mechanic to be wanting) :) They have a classic rank and file alternative aswell.

    Hearing Napoleonic warfare described as rows and rows of handgunners firing at one another without maneuvering makes my head hurt. Go play some freaking historicals, or read some history about the time period, or even just watch some youtube vids, there's plenty out there. Maneuver (both strategic and tactical) and morale were what generally won battles in the era, and being able to shift your infantry from column (for speed and impact during assaults) to line (for maximum firepower) to square (to keep cavalry from killing you all) at the right time was a defining element of a good commander. You might even pick up some useful ideas for playing AoS, although it's not exactly a simulationist game.

    GODDD this was painful watching. Hella boring, and inordinate amount of “nothingness” talking. I think I got scurvy watching this. . .
    The advantage of the fantasy reps are they’re short, succinct, and to the point. They make moves and that’s it -or explain things and why they’re happening in like 10 words or less.
    In this AoS battle (maybe it’s the fault of red shirt guy) there’s so much side chatter, I couldn’t do it.
    Furthermore, ugliness to the board. . . even 40K is more coherent than this. . .
    Ugh couldn’t even make it through more than 25 minutes.
    And that’s my yearly AoS battle report try to see if it’s any fun/different.
    Maybe next year. Lol (unlikely not, I’ll look for one without the guy in the red shirt -intolerable).
    PS. Would be nice to see this level of production on WARHAMMER FANTASY. . . pleaseee and thanks.
