I thought I was done paiting clanrats after doing 60... now I need at least 20 more, maybe even more than that. At least I have a quick 5 colors and a wash process that makes them look pretty good in a short time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My bloodfistless list: Megaboss on Maw-Crusha - Brutal Charisma, Daubing of Mork Megaboss Weirdnob - Boss Skewer Warchanter Ironfist 10 Brutes 5 Brutes 3 Gore Gruntas 10 Ardboys 10 Ardboys 2000 pts on the nail, using all units and characters, some bodies with 2 Ardboys units, 4 characters for Destroyers, Gruntas for speed and Big inspired presenced brutes. Also with charisma, the 2nd brutes unit won't be so scared of bravery losses. I love that, maybe instead of 5 brutes you could test a big unit of 20 ardboys ( for hold objective) .. But brutes can be good to grab objective.. Ira a choice but the general idea Is valid imo:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sangfroid Posted August 24, 2017 Share Posted August 24, 2017 thinking of allies I'm quite liking this as a list idea Megaboss on foot, brutish cunning, meatripper weirdnob orruk warboss (on boar) with waaagh banner (allies 140 pts) 30 Ardboyz 5 brutes 5 brutes 5 brutes 5 brutes ironfist grot spear chukka (allies 120pts) grot spear Chukka (allies 120 pts) not sure if the re-roll 1s to wound is worth it over just a second Megaboss (or make a brutes into a 10 and take 3 piggies Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ira a choice but the general idea Is valid imo:) IMO Ardboys should be fielded in units of 10 or 30. 10 are good and still plenty of wounds, and not so expensive. 30 benefits from Massive Regiments discount, and you need to kill 10 (20 wounds) to prevent them scoring on objectives that need 20 minis. 20 aren't bad, but if they suffer 2 wounds, they can't score a 20 man objective, so I prefer to field them on 2 units of 10. TLDR: I don't want to paint more Ardboys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nico Posted August 24, 2017 Share Posted August 24, 2017 20 means you are overpaying the most possible. I would suggest running either 10s or 30s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seen someone say they're fitting one into their allies slot! thats been me asking all over the place! troll hag currently 400 points so it fits. The unofficial/accidentally leaked FW points from 2 months ago had it as low as 300 (but who knows if that was correct). Watch out saturday!

Bloodtoof: love the idea of this battalion and the new battalion tax finally bites home for IJ though to be fair if it didn't cost 300pts it would be in every single IJ list I imagine. Megaboss on MawKrusha: General, Ironclad, armour of Gork weirdnob: boss skewer megqboss: Meat ripper (-1 rend one ) 10 brutes 5 brutes 5 brutes 3 goregruntas 3 goregruntas ironfist bloodtoofs =2000pts I have been using this exact list (with a Warchanter) and it's pretty nails (Previosuly talisman on Krusha brew on footboss) and was the list I was going to use to for mine and @Chris Tomlin (Sorry I mean Megaboss Krunk) grudge match at Bristol Smash that the famed Megaboss chickened out on (just kidding was a ironclad reason Da dum dum tsssh). I think with the new allegience abilities it really pumps up first we have +2 to charge the brutes become bravery 8 (9 if the boss skewer works need to read that really) and so you can almost not use inspiring prescene at all instead hitting up a Waaagh once engaged (still use it while you advance to be safe). If im reading it correctly you have a general that reduces the rend of incoming attacks by 1 (so -1 becomes 0 -2 becomes -1) and if we get the mystic shield on him is bouncing a mortal wound back on a 5+ (against a natural rend -1 and 0 attacks) and a 6+ against rend -2, he becomes a great horde killer, against 120 4 to hit 4 to wound rend -1/0 damage 1 attacks, he will take on average 5 wounds and bounce 20 mortals back, also makes him a good shout against Stardrakes and things that don't have better than rend -1 (rend -2 at a push if we think he can take them down quick) with the footboss having meat ripper we also then have 5 sources of rend -2 across the army. not sure if I can actually get any work done today, might just spend the day on TGA list theorising with you fellow Megaboss :-) Looks awesome!

Gorks Pokin' Finger Posted August 24, 2017 Share Posted August 24, 2017 Quick smashy list I devised on the way to work for 1000 pointsMegaboss - Brutish Cunning, Destroyer10 Brutes5 Brutes 3 Gore GruntasGiantPlan with this list is to keep Megaboss and Brutes together while the giant and Gore Gruntas cause havoc and contest far objectives. If an enemy tries to charge the horde, I hopefully charge either brute unit at them with brutish cunningThe goal is to overwhelm one side of the board where I can get the most objective points Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never got a chance to re-paint and re-base my rescued Grimgor Ironhide. Shucks. I guess he could still work as a Warboss with Waaagh Banner in the meantime.
