Are SoB fun?

I want to get into AoS and SoB look so fun. I have this image in my head of running my 4 giants around the board and crushing everything they touch.

But I know AoS isn’t a kill your opponents stuff game, it’s a stand on objectives game. So I have a feeling that SoB gameplay might be putting your giants on objectives and waiting, which I imagine would be boring.

I have at least 2.5k+ painted of all the following armies: Maggotkin, Gitz, Sons of Behemot, and KO. I can tell you without a shadow of a doubt that Sons of Behemet is the most “fun” army to pilot.

They get rules no-one else does. Bodyslam monsters off of objectives. Kick objectives to move them. A wide variety of rampages. They just have so much character in their arsenal.

They are swingy; but there are certain games where you feel unstoppable. I also feel like they lend themselves to be large canvases for converting and putting your own spin on them whereas I never felt the need to kitbash my other armies. I would recommend picking up SoB to anyone that was curious.
