The Age of Sigmar version of Chapter Approved is coming in hot with a look at the Table of Contents and a new allies chart for your games!
Warhammer Community showcased some details that’ll be found inside AoS’s 2020 General’s Handbook. From the Table of Contents to a new allying chart, here’s everything we know so far.
2020 General’s Handbook Table of Contents & More Revealed
Looking at the Table of Contents, we can see 18 Battleplans as well as an updated Pitched Battle sheet for 2020. There will also be a look into NEW Realms of Battle rules and NEW Auxiliary Objectives!
In the video from Warhammer Community, there’s a short teaser page of Realms of Battle. This is looking to be pre-set rules for both armies to plan for as their next game.
Coalition of Death & Ally Chart
Finally, there’s the Coalition of Death rules set which is a continuation of the narrative found within the book. This lets factions across all the realms to fight side by side as allies in games of three or more players:
In Coalition of Death, three or more players can take part in thrilling team games, where they compete as unified groups called coalitions. If you’re looking to fight legendary battles where your bonds of friendship are just as important as your army, this could be the game for you!
If you remember the 7th Edition ally table, this will look very familiar.
Armies that are close allies will be able to coordinate better in battle, while more fractious groupings (such as a desperate coalition between the Slaves to Darkness and the Ossiarch Bonereapers) will treat each other as enemy units for the purposes of movement. These alliances cut across the Grand Alliances and are based on a faction’s lore; the Fyreslayers, for instance, will fight with pretty much anyone, but don’t trust aelves much. Likewise, the Ironjawz will team up with most factions, while the followers of Chaos will rarely, if ever, battle alongside their mortal enemies in Order.
With all of this out, are you hoping to see some points changes in the Handbook? How do you feel about the Coalition of Death ally charts?
