  1. Aside from that, allying the faction you already belong to makes zero sense. "Shockingly, X decided to ally with X against Y, where both instances of X are the same group."
  2. What are you asking? 3 units of clanrats satisfies skaventide battle line requirements, yes. Skaven heroes who have the skryre keyword automatically get the spark ability that used to be the Skryre allegiance, it’s not really it’s own independent thing anymore. If you didn’t want to use clanrats at all you could take pure skryre and do 3 skryre battle lines, but you couldn’t mix and match 1 unit of clanrats in because they aren’t Skryre. But if your using three units of clanrats anyway that’s a moot point.
  3. I guess you could give the warlock a Lens of Refraction to protect the cannon (or himself) from d3 MW or round, but of course that sacrifices a skaventide artifact. Edit: brainfart. the LoR only works on spells, of course.
  4. Unless you meant to say 4x40 you are shorting yourself 200 points. It looks more like the 800 is a typo, though, now that I actually look at the other numbers.
  5. It's just one per turn, which bummed me out. Theres a battle plan in the book which allows you to use more than one per turn as a special ability, which is the only reason I'm sure that, normally, it's only once.
  6. Endless spells are not allegiance abilities, just spell lores are.
  7. It doesnt specify models must be removed immediately after the pile in, so I would say, since they are different spells, that the unit piles in, attacks, piles in, and attacks again.
  8. They were heroes before the tome dropped. I also had mine on 32s.
  9. The nice part is that an overcharged grey seer (average 9 or so, plus a gnawhole bonus) is able to semI-reliably summon the warp vortex unless the enemy gets really lucky on a dispel role, and can reliably re-summon it if still alive.
  10. Especially when you can then use the Gnawbomb artifact in combo with a skitterleap to create a surprise gnawhole.
  11. Theres a newer one in the app that has the exact same text except the middle portion, talking about taking another unit, is removed, with publication date of Feb 2019.
  12. . Without being able to bring another unit I’d say he’s at least 100 points overpriced. I’d say overpriced by the amount of a warpgrinder, but now that the grinder damages you I think his ability was much more valuable.
  13. Yeah, the text never says anything about bringing or setting up another unit, although the name and flavor text imply he *should* be able to bring a unit along.
  14. The scroll does appear to be missing from the pdf in the store page as well as the app, unfortunately. The pdf warscroll card doesn't even mention it, whereas the app mentions it but doesn't provide details. I'm afraid I think the book is the only option now. That said, plague monks getting access to the clanrats old +1/+1 size rule more than makes up for it.
  15. Just want to point out that 2 grinder teams cost 480 points less than 2 warpgnaws, who dont even have a command ability and whose spell is now either kills one model with up to 6 wounds (which an engineer can do for 100 points) or does nothing.
  16. It has been both faqd and updated in the printed rules to show that he summons clanrats.i actually think the nice thing about the Verminking is that you don’t actually have to try to kill models and summon units. You can just lay down an average of 6-7 mortal wounds on a single model.
  17. I’m always put off by being able to buy 2 or 3 mortars for the same price in a mixed or allied skaven list to get double or triple the potential shots (or a lightning cannon, obviously) The point decrease changes the math more than just 20 points would suggest, though. I thought it was kind of iffy before depending on the match points, but is now a smart include for mono-Nurgle armies.
  18. There are a couple factions with only one or two model choices, so a leader + huge numbers of lackeys may be unavoidable for some armies.
  19. Some people were saying reknown is just warscroll points divided by 5. If so, anything much over 100 renknown drifts into the territory of just a normal size game of AoS, with 200 renown equaling 1000 points.
  20. Right? Must never have played against Destruction.
  21. Actually, they said this on WarhammerTV to explain why the studio's Kharadron frigates were wobbling so much, and that the plastic versions wouldn't do so.

  23. I actually agree with points per upgrade (See: stormfiends with warpfire vs other builds). If they just increase the cost of stormfiends across the board, it badly overcosts the models for those who dont just spam three projectors.
