Editing Age of Sigmar/Tactics (section)

==Army Tactics==
Generally, people play using the points system introduced in the ''Generals Handbook''. This limits you to choosing your army from either a single faction (plus optionally some allies from a restricted set) or one of the Grand Alliances (Order, Chaos, Death or Destruction). By choosing a faction that has a Battletome you'll receive additional bonuses. The official [https://www.warhammer-community.com/warscroll-builder/ Warscroll Builder] can be an easy and effective way of building a roster.

Technically, nothing in the core rules limit your model choices and thus can field anything from any army alongside each other. While this can create interesting thematics, such as oldschool [[Morathi]] armies using Dark Elves and Daemons or Chaos Magic Sigmarines, if you play this way you should expect players to be grizzled sex pests, and prepare to fight fire with fire (if you know what I mean). Early editions of AOS played entirely this way until points were added to give the illusion of balance.

Anyone with old WHFB minis that aren't listed in any of the factions find them in [[Age_of_Sigmar/Tactics/Legends|Legends]]. Whilst anyone wanting to play AOS rules that have been superseded by newer editions should mosey on down to the [[:Category:Age_of_Sigmar/Tactics/Old|Old]] section. Neither of these will be valid in either tournaments or many local groups.

In the table below, Factions with Battletomes are listed on a row above the unloved factions. Factions in ''italics'' either don't have a battletome or do not have the correct units to field a full army.
