Changer Posted July 17, 2016 Share Posted July 17, 2016 Although not related directly to the generals handbook, do we have any idea if / when points will be made available for matched play for units from silver tower? I only ask because the tale of gamers thread on the AoS Facebook page noted that Tzaangors were a battleline unit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shane Posted July 17, 2016 Share Posted July 17, 2016 Not been confirmed. We believe FW units are the week after the book. But it's possible we'll get some new points along with the GH FAQ; so hopefully then. Let's hope Tzeentch is Tzeentch and not further divided by acolytes and daemons.

Changer Posted July 17, 2016 Share Posted July 17, 2016 I get the feeling that we'll have tzeentch daemons and tzeentch arcanites judging by the silver tower warscrolls. Shame really. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shane Posted July 17, 2016 Share Posted July 17, 2016 If they do, does that mean four units of Horrors at 2000pts is the only battleline option for Tzeentch Daemons? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No different than Khorne Daemons and Nurgle Daemons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shame really. This is the same for Khorne Daemons and Bloodbound or Nurgle Daemons and Nurgle Rotbringers. They separate the mortals from the daemons. Slaanesh is the only one that isn't like this.

daedalus81 Posted July 18, 2016 Share Posted July 18, 2016 Yea don't equate everything in silver tower to arcanites. Arcanites seems to be a smashup of beastmen and tzeentch given the ogroid and tzaangors. Expect the acolytes kit to make two variants. The tzaangors to make two. Perhaps the ogroid as one hero along with the other established characters. And hopefully a big kit, but I really doubt it. Don't necessarily expect this tome before the fall, because ogres are up next and then I imagine some 40K stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

darkspear Posted July 18, 2016 Share Posted July 18, 2016 Thank you very much. Just as I suspected, the point cost are largely identical to their Darkling Coven counterparts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tjgreenway Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 Alright, I've held off for as long as I can, but I can't bear to wait until Sunday anymore - could somebody please send me the points for Stormcast Eternals/Extremis and Seraphon, please?

Ogait-Nas Posted July 22, 2016 Share Posted July 22, 2016 Hi! We know that 10 ardboyz are 180 points. OK So, if I want to field 15 ardboyz (there are 15 of them in the new box!), do I have to pay for 20 -that's 360 points- because the minimum I can add is 10 of them, or can I just add 90 points for 5 and pay 270 points to field 15? Of course I know they would have to be a single unit. Thank you guys! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course you there's nothing stopping you and your opponent agreeing to split the points cost 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a bit annoying they choose to pack/point Ardboyz this way. It's almost as if they acknowledged it by only putting 10 in the Start Collecting box.

polarbear Posted July 22, 2016 Share Posted July 22, 2016 The hotdog-bun problem has gone off the chain with the matched play structure. Leadbelchers come in boxes of 4, but you'd need to buy 3 boxes to have an even split of groups of 3, unless you want superfluous models. In a weird way I'm actually coming around to it though. It basically means you'll almost never build an exact force, buy it and be done. You'll always have extra models and that will breed different ways to construct your army as you go. Steers you a bit more to building your army in a general sense and not specifically for that one competitive list. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've still got a box in a cupboard and quite fancy doing an army next year once they get updated (Chaos this year). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
