Thalassic Monstrosity Posted June 12, 2018 Share Posted June 12, 2018 Full disclosure: for almost a year now I've thought it was pronounced "Darko-ath". I only realized last night it was "Dark Oath". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaleb Daark Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 Interestingly today on the age of sigmar official site we have the faction listed as everchosen and slaves to darkness. do we think this heralds a combined book or faction? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Infernalslayer Posted June 15, 2018 Share Posted June 15, 2018 Lord of Chaos on foot is now 40 points more expensive, probably to compensate for the free Chaos Spawn on death, or Daemon Prince replacement. Warshrine is 20 points cheaper than last year. The most impacting change i think is that Chaos Marauders can no longer be taken in minimum units of 10. You have to take them in 20s now. No point changes for the Chaos Lord on Manticore who could really use a reduction or Chaos Chosen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roark Posted June 15, 2018 Share Posted June 15, 2018 Those last two are particularly disappointing. I hope they adjust the scrolls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nevvermore Posted June 15, 2018 Share Posted June 15, 2018 Yeah very disappointed, I have both a lord on manticore and Chosen and was excited about potential points drops for those in particular... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Galdenistal Posted June 15, 2018 Share Posted June 15, 2018 I didn't want a points reduction for the lord on manticore, I just wanted his warscroll changed to make him deal more damage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SirPug Posted June 15, 2018 Share Posted June 15, 2018 I was hoping for price drop to chaos knights and chaos sorcerer lords both on foot and on manticore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaleb Daark Posted June 15, 2018 Share Posted June 15, 2018 sure, but that is now. Perhaps we'll get some of the wishes granted in the new tome, in whatever form that takes. Also chosen are a very old model now so I hope that we see them getting (deleted out or) re-imagined when the faction is more fleshed out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The points are mostly known (just missing the battalions, marauder cav, and gorebeast chariot points): -20 pts for Warshrine, +40 for Chaos Lords, Marauders now 20 minimum instead of 10, but we don't know the allegiance abilities and don't have updated warscrolls yet. Marks of chaos were mentioned to have changed in the faction focus, so Chaos Lords of all types may have updated warscrolls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cplhicks Posted June 16, 2018 Share Posted June 16, 2018 Is the Chaos Sorcerer Lord on Horse still a thing? I know we were worried about losing the option to take a mount for the foot lord. I was just about to convert one up before news of AOS 2.0 dropped so I decided to wait a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skorvan Posted June 17, 2018 Share Posted June 17, 2018 I hope to see, one day, a battletome for the StD. Just for them or combine with the Everchosen. When i start playing AoS, it was with the StD. One friend of my said to me "don't start with them, they are an old army and they are not the same as battle" but the chaos knights really attracte me, so i buy them. 3 months later, the first GHB was released and i was hopping some change for them. When the ghb came out, i realise two things : a non-sense allegiance ability and the fact that play StD allegiance will be not competitive as all. With the release of the kohrne, tzeentch and nurgle battletome the gap between an army with battletome and an army without one was huge. So, i have choose a battletome (two to be exact), and it works really well. And i'm very glad about my army of Nurgle mortal but ... the problem is you need to mix your army, you take the best of the two and combine them but ... you can't only play StD. For me now, StD are not good but not bad. You need to combine them because there is always one unit who are better to do what you can really do and the heros can't boost them enough. For exemple, if you combine 40 marauders with Glotkin magic and Harbinger of Decay command ability, it's 40 men with 2 wounds 5+ invulnerable ... you can't do something similar with only StD and it's too bad. So i really hope a Battletome for them because it will be the only to play them as a Pure Std army. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cplhicks Posted June 17, 2018 Share Posted June 17, 2018 I'm looking forward to the Malign Sorcery stuff as I really feel StD need access to more spells and better relics. This could be a small patch for us as we wait for our (hopefully) Battletome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
