DRUCHII - AoS Homebrew Army

Description
DRUCHII (Dark Elves) in Age of Sigmar!

You heard it right! This is a complete Age of Sigmar 3.0 compatible army roster with static/animated Models, Warscrolls, Endless Spells, Battletome, Army Builder, Dice and more.

IMPORTANT
Do not save anything. This makes a copy, and will not update with changes I make.

ALWAYS BUILD ARMIES IN THE MOD


I appreciate any feedback you have to offer, but please keep it constructive!


THE PROJECT
This project began because a number of friends and I felt that the Dark Elves were really poorly represented in Age of Sigmar. Many other old world races got updates to their rosters, or replacement factions that suited the original feel. The Dark Elves however got fish-people and snake-people (Idoneth Deepkin and Daughters of Khaine). Now, this isn't to say those armies are bad. On the contrary, they're very good! However, they strayed too far from the original theme. All the fantastic characters mostly gone, and the cruel portrayal of a society built upon slavery and ruthlessly fighting your way to the top. It was gone, brushed away. We wanted it back. We wanted Black Dragons and War Hydras dominating the battlefield. We wanted Shades and Darkriders stealthily slaying at incredible speeds. We wanted Malekith and all his followers back on the table, being badass and performing well with modern rules. So, we did it!

Porting over the army was no easy task. At a base roster of 45 units, only half of which had a semblance of a warscroll to work from, and no battletome to speak of, the majority of the work had to be done from scratch. Fortunately, a lot could be borrowed from the various existing factions to give us something to start with. Taking inspiration from Daughters of Khaine, Lumineth Realm Lords, Idoneth Deepkin and the Cities of Sigmar really helped to flesh out a form that could be moulded into something greater than it's parts. Many units had their scale and base sizes increased to match current standards. Units lost redundant rules, and gained more interesting abilities. The Battletome itself was the final ingredient that brought the army to life. And finally, it was done! The army is complete and ready for play. I will occasionally tweak things, addressing balancing and uninspired abilities as often as I can. But as it stands, everything is good to go. And it's all worth it, because people like you and I enjoy it. It feels great to play them again.


Thanks
Many thanks to everyone who has contributed to the project. Not least my friend Chris who poured his nostalgic soul into reinvigorating the Druchii anew. Also big thanks to Ray and Ben for their feedback, as well as the countless people on Discord that shared their thoughts. ChezCak, thankyou as well for conveniently releasing your Total War models almost simultaneously! And thanks to you for dropping in!


MODEL SOURCES
Special thanks to those that contributed models to this army, willingly, or unknowingly. Unfortunately not all sources could be found, please let me know if you want crediting!

zorohector - After how much time it took to make this, I won't be making another faction soon. Also Bretonnia doesn't have models available yet. Maybe when ChezCak gets to extracting them from Total War we could look into it again. I would like to play them in AoS, it's just a huge huge amount of work that there isn't time at the moment. Hope you understand. :)

YOU COULD MAKE ONE THE SAME WITH BRETONNIA

Shadowlord - You can pull the battletome as pdf direct from the mod, but the warscrolls are all images. I didn't do anything fancy with those as they update fairly frequently. You're welcome to print out the ones you want though. Everything you need is there.

You're welcome Zorohector. If you ever want to play official dark elves, what's left of them are incorporated into Cities of Sigmar. But it's small in comparison. Enjoy the mod!
