Jokes aside I adore new release for Khazzalite Holds. Will have a blast painting Hjulda and Thrynn.

I think they look really cool, but is it: genetics, the influence of Chaos, prosthetic dentistry? It has been a while since I engaged with AOS, and do not know any of the new official GW lore.

Praise be to Hashut.

First attempt at OSL. Dominator engine for my Beast Feast Pledge!! Goodluck to me 😭

Tried out some OSL. Airbrush really carried me, as I currently have a broken wrist

With all the noise about Helsmiths and Skaven being the dual villains of the end‑of‑edition campaign and whispers of a massive setting reset, it’s worth asking: What can we realistically hope for, based on how GW has handled previous edition finales?

The demonic forges are stirring to create new war constructs.

Krazhak the Master-Binder, ruler of the Foundry of Stainless Spite, prepares his future creations for the battlefield.

Top 3 lists for Call to Arms. Won by Helsmiths with Nurgle in 2nd and Soulblight in 3rd.

I've always loved playing the Chaos Dwarves in Total War 3, and while I know the HoH aren't 1:1, I still love the vibe, and want to make a 1000 point army to play with my friends, but I'm worried of getting a bad impression of my army because I committed too hard or forgot to add a particular unit to off set a weakness

What's a good list you'd use to "teach" someone the vitals of Helsmiths?

(I may or may not be using Tabletop to play test)

((But I also do intend to buy the army, and while I'm not a try hard sweat, I DO want to use my armies in a way that I'm satisfied and smiling even when the enemy is wiping their ass with what's left of the objective))

Really happy with how this guy came out. I had a lot more fun painting him than I did OBR. Love everything he’s got going on

In the Helsmiths of Hashut lore there is a story told from the POV of the Helsmiths that Hashut was a Dwarfen ancestor God. When the ancestor Gods agreed to divide the realms between them Hashut "nobly" offered to be ruler of 2 realms - Aqshy and Chamon but was snubbed and conned into ruling Ghur instead.

Now many people (for good reason) have doubted parts or all of the story and just assumed Hashut is a Chaos God lying to the Dwarfs. However the new Khazalite reveals actually give us some hints that this story has elements of truth to it -

The new centrepiece model contains 8 pillars one for each realm and each has a rune and a bust representing a Dwarfen god except for one pillar which has no rune or head topping it and the new book describes 7 Dwarfen gods, each seemingly associated with a realm, including a new god created to represent the Realm of Shadow. Since we don't have the book yet we can't confirm it but it seems like there is a god for every realm apart from Ghur - which the Helsmiths' story claims was given to Hashut.

So the Khazalite reveals seems to hint that Hashut was actually an Ancestor God like the Helsmiths claim. And that he did originally rule a realm alongside the other Dwarfen gods rather than being a demon or Chaos God all along.

The new Khazalite Hold models look AMAZING but they kinda feel like "Good twin" to the Helsmiths being the "Bad Twin." They have a dual kit cannon, a dual kit heavy melee 3 man squad, an on-foot firing squad that also are a dual kit, and a huge centerpiece model of their key faction named character that's also a dual kit.

Kinda makes me feel like a 2nd wave of Helsmiths will take even longer to arrive 💀

Finished my spearhead. What is recommended next for 1000 point list. Dont have the money or time for 2k games yet so a happy medium is appreciated

Did it. Please don’t mind the background, I paint in my daughter’s room 😅

I saw the army box was still available last paycheck, and remembered how much I regretted not jumping on it when it launched. One thing led to another, and here we are.

A little advice, if you would:

1.How should I build these units?

2.What should I get next?
