  1. I love the idea of this and have been thinking about an Affliction Cyst list for a while now. You talk about trying to generate Contagion points to get the bodies on the board. Have you considered fitting Horticulous into your list? That would give you and extra tree turn one asa well as another daemon hero for your drone locus and a tanky hero! I also think a big unit of either plague monks or Marauders is a good option to make up the points as whilst not as survivable as the plaguebearers they can be cheaper for bodies (and monks are deadly) Really interested in how this goes for you, please keep us updated!!
  2. Congratulations. Do you think that you will do a write up of your experiences at the event. I’d also be interested to read your thoughts on how you play your list, anything you would change about it and weaknesses you think it has.
  3. Still a few tickets left if people fancy a day of gaming in Winchester. Shaping up to be a great day!
  4. For me it would depend on what you plan on building with the big guys, horrors or flayers, I've always felt the Zombie Dragon works better with Horrors than Flayers. Terrorgheist with grim garland works nicely with flayers as they are all getting a buff to their scream attack
  5. A question I've been pondering on the Courtiers rules for returning slain models. If we are now playing that units can grow above their starting value (as in ghoul patrol) Can we do the same with Slain models? (to grow a unit bigger than it started if we have the slain models spare) The Ghast courtier for example; the rule say return slain models to nearby unit of ghouls. Yes I know the models have to have been slain but it doesn't say which unit they have been slain from. Could we use this to take the Slain models from one unit and add them to another above it's starting size (as long as we have enough slain models for the increase) As an example... Say use Ghoul King command ability....those 10 ghouls die, next turn use the ghast to grow my unit of 30 above it's starting 30 with those 10 slain models? I'm just curious as can't seem to find anything definitive on this in the rules??
  6. Fantastic result though! Was a great event although as you say the heat was intense. I only managed 38 with my Maggotkin after losing 2 games over the weekend (two armies I don't think I could have beaten so pretty happy) What was the list you were running for the event?
  7. Anybody going to the AoS open day tomorrow that could ask in person about why the Exalted Great Unclean One May have been nerfed so dramatically? It just seems strange to me that it is worse than the plastic one and costs more both ijnpoints and £
  8. I predict we may see it re-released like the rogue idol. especially if rumours of a Slaves/everchosen battletome are true
  9. It’s utterly bizarre isn’t it! so much so that I’ve actually dropped an email to Forgeworld just to see if there was an error made?
  10. I agree, trying to remain positive, but can’t see what it gets for that extra 120 pts beyond 2” extra move... extra attack on the sword but doesn’t have any other weapon profile like the regular GUO same save, wounds, shooting, regen, abilities etc (no buff options though bell/dagger etc) Seems like a more expensive model (points and £) with worse rules? Odd business decision or just mistake??
  11. and the Warpgnaw Verminlord just got crazy good!!
  12. Wow..... New Forgeworld warscrolls are up. Haven't had a lot of time to go through them all... but the Exalted Great Unclean one took a massive hit!! Unless I am missing something I have no idea why you would play it over the standard one anymore... https://www.forgeworld.co.uk/resources/PDF/fw_warscrolls/aos-monstrous-arcanum.pdf
  13. The other thing that the new FAQ has us losing is Pestilens Battalions in a Nurgle List. Perhaps not as widely used as Plaguetouched but the same logic applies: Pestilens battalion so it and everything in it becomes allies, which would take it over the 400 pts of allies. (Although I tend to agree that the wording is ambiguous and could be read both ways at the moment. I think the intention is to take away things like the Everchosen Battalions from Nurgle armies, but as was shown by the roll off for first turn issue it is impossible to know what GW actually intend.) They just need to make it clear if, when a unit is taken as part of a warscroll battalion it is that allegiance despite what ever other allegiance it may have. I am going to plan for the worst though and start looking at other options and remember the good times had with Plaguetouched.
  14. Looks like being a great event! I’m in! The fact it is a Sunday is even better as often I can’t make the Saturday events due to family. Heard good things about this event strongly recommend people sign up for a great day of dice rolling!
