The Necrons know they were the Necrontyr but still act like the androids they are despising flesh or being confused by bodily functions they once had and see in modern races. So how much is the mileage that Necrons remember their past lives? Does it just vary?

Interesting times in the Mawtribes.

With the fall of Globb and the rise if Morga and Redd we are seeing an interesting cultural shift in the Mawtribes begin to take place.

If we compare what is happening to our own real world history this would be comparable to a specific religious sect coming into power at the top of one particularly large and powerful tribe/kingdom/state and leading what would be considered a top down reformation with new religious ethics alongside cementing new power structures. Not only in the major power itself but also in smaller affiliated tribes that are caught up in the sphere of influence.

So we have the Mawseekers thrusting themselves into greater power across many tribes, particularly Gutbusters, taking them over to partially or fully turn them into Gollops and creating power struggles with less religious Tyrants and the arch-traditionalist Beastclaw Raiders. The influence of the Meatfists is also enough to turn other tribes such as the Stomebellies as seen in the “Law of Meat”.

To bring this all home to the title, the religious edicts proclaimed by Redd and backed up by Morga (in additionally influenced by the knock down effect of “Out with the Old, In With the New” of her disdain of her father’s way of doing things) have seen a dramatic decrease downfall of Maneaters and Leadbelchers in particular among the tribes. If we want to think in real time thoughts then those units moving to Legends in 2027 could be seen as in the instory progress of the Mawtribes abandoning use of those units as the new reforms spread and take hold.

This creates an interesting progression of story for the Mortal Realms in particular related to these Ogors. At the end of the day the Pro-Globb Ogors have a few choices:

1. They go down fighting and get themselves killed by the Mawseekers and/or by all the other armies of the setting.
2. They go along with the “reforms” and abandon their old ways/tools and accept the new power structure.
3. They strike out for themselves (see Urrgar’s Maulerguts) and/or join the Cities of Sigmar.

In particular I think the third option is most interesting, and could lead to the Maneaters coming back under the wing of the COS until they can make a return to the Mawtribes social structure. I will be very interested to see if any writers run with this, focusing on -dispossessed- ogors joining the Cities out of spite/revenge/hunger/laziness.

The Mawseekers rise are without a doubt going to lead to some backlash in some hunger pains.

Thinking in two lists, one is a normal faction list while the other is a Alfrostun AOR

Thinking of splitting the new box and was wondering if the two player starter box was a good place to start and afterward from there where to do?
