Favorite AoS Scenarios?

So far, I really like Lair of the Beast, one of the Chaos scenarios. There is a beast defending a beast lair in the middle of the map. Victory condition is to capture the beast lair after the beast is dead. The first part of the scenario is to slay the beast (random roll to see who controls the beast). Second part of the scenario is to defeat the other army to claim the lair.

for me would have to say The Ritual

The Lair of the Fiend from the Fyreslayers battletome is my fav so far. Basically a video game style board which reveals each quarter as you enter. The Fiend (death, but whatever type of army is fine) has set hi army up before deployment with his general in square 4 but the rest by quarters that reveal once the quarter is entered. The pop up I think 9 or 12" away at least. Fun style of play. I love the variety and still have 99% of scenarios just to discover--an encouraging thought. Not playing Dawn Attack or The Watchtower over and over again

I enjoy the one where you have to fight the monster in the middle of the board.

Basically any Dreadhold mission. There's just something about siege missions I love, AOS or 40k.

Shouldn't this be in AoS general?

OT though, I really enjoy the dreadhold mssions, gives the game a really different edge!

I like the normal one.

I haven't had an opportunity to delve much into the scenarios as the only real scenario played here is the default one.

I try and play a new scenario every time. I counted 53 different Battleplans in the Age of Sigmar App. Then there are a dozen times of war, some of which have multiple ways in which they change scenarios.

Bad! Bad Auticus!
Probably the best one to start with is The Ritual - body count irrelevant, you have a random game length to achieve a specific objective.

I really like Out of the Mist too, because in effect the battlefield can change every turn.

I'm going to throw in another vote for The Ritual. We always have a blast playing that.

Thoughts on which Battlepack has the best set of Scenarios?

For general gaming, I think the Warhammer: Age of Sigmar one is the best place to start as the scenarios are all based around familiar concepts.
Balance of Power IMO sees them really starting to hit their stride in terms of unusual ideas (ability to destroy the board section you're stood on, for example...)

The Seraphon one is worth purchasing just for The Tables Turned, a 3-player scenario.
