Hello, Been asking about wanting to play AoS. Now I wanted to ask if there is a Battletome for Greenskinz? I see one for Ironjawz and Bonesplitterz, but nothing for the original Greenskinz? Any Greenskinz players can help this newb out would be greatly appreciated.

There isn't a battletome for them yet. The only destruction tomes out is Ironjawz, Bonesplitterz and beastclaw raiders.

Ok, so would a pre-AoS Greenskinz book still work?

Try their warscrolls, of course. If it ain't updated the original works.

Great! I didn't know if some of the old material can still be used if it wasn't updated. Thank you!

What do you mean by book? I am not familiar with Greenskinz so sadly I can't help you there. If they don't have a battletome then you can only use their warscrolls that are perfectly legal. Just like how Tomb Kings and Bretonians (sorry don't know their AoS names keep forgetting) they have no battletome either and just use their warscrolls.

If you get the Destruction Grand Alliance book, you can get some benefits for choosing the alliance at least. I think it's $20 Canadian. That book is mostly warscrolls from what I remember that you get for free on the internet anyways, but you do get a small bit of fluff and some Allegiance abilities. The reason I bought it, is because I can have all the warscrolls in paper form without printing them out. YMMV of course.

I didn't know if I could use a previous Greenskinz book like in 40k they're codexes.

You sent me a link to those Warscrolls in card form. Those I really like! I love the fluff, I think that's why I'm so stuck on looking at official GW stuff.

There is no previous book for Greenskinz to my knowledge. If you are thinking using the ones from Fantasy, the answer would be no, you can't use them as they are totally different stats. So basically those cards that are in the Destruction Grand Alliance book is all you can use at the moment sadly.

Now is it worth getting? I don't know. Not sure if the Allegiance bonuses are worth it or not.

Ok that makes sense. I wasn't sure if old material can still be used in AoS or not.

I'll probably start with greenskinz because I love the classic fantasy look.
