lastdarkness Posted June 28, 2017 Share Posted June 28, 2017 Going to mess with one in a 1,000 point game. Any tips ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nico Posted June 28, 2017 Share Posted June 28, 2017 The spell is immense against some units/heroes with pants bravery. Arachnorok is a prime example or Brutes. It can get a cover save, which is nice. The reroll on an initiative roll is handy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rahr Posted June 28, 2017 Share Posted June 28, 2017 Why is the reason it can get cover if i am not wrong is it not a behemoth and therefor cant get cover bonus ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nico Posted June 28, 2017 Share Posted June 28, 2017 The cover rule applies to monsters not behemoths. Hence it gets a cover save. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kozokus Posted June 28, 2017 Share Posted June 28, 2017 Look Snorri ... Trolls! Dread Saurian! *Dread Saurian run into a Sylvaneth Wyldwood and rolls a 1* *Dread Saurian Dies* Well, some warscolls lacks that MONSTER Keyword indeed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koalaninja Posted June 28, 2017 Share Posted June 28, 2017 It can flop in combat due to little rend and 1 damage attacks. It's spell can be great but requires a lot of luck as you need to successfully roll the cast, beat the dispel then beat their bravery. It's very fast and has a small base size. Overall I would say it's worth it's points. Try running it with the -1 to hit 3 inch book aretefact and park it next to the Mortarch of Blood with her -1 to hit command ability. Against melee heavy armies they become invincible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swarmofseals Posted June 29, 2017 Share Posted June 29, 2017 It's a fantastic model and has some interesting abilities, but I wouldn't worry too much. It's not very offensively or defensively efficient but has some interesting utility. It messes with initiative rolls which can be very powerful, so be aware of that. Death isn't super well equipped to take advantage of double turns though, so it's less scary there than it would be otherwise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
