Sete Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 I have a plan already. Gonna convert a soul render, give him a sharkrider torso and helmet with Namarti legs, lore wise he has a twin brother that is a Namarti and he feels guilty for having a soul.

Thalassic Monstrosity Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 Hmm, the example we see of Forgotten Nightmares in the new Malign Portents story is interesting. And Aemorthis mentions a secret alliance between the Idoneth and Sigmar that isn't unexpected (obviously) but makes me wonder if it came to pass recently or if it's been in place for a while.

The realms in which people live aren't planets, they're infinite planes and the only thing that prevents you from being able to actually travel forever in one direction, is that the further away you get from the center, the more reality falls apart, so you turn into a frog and explode, or shatter into a cloud of flying whispers Awesome explanation Man!

TheKingInYellow Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 Man look at this stat line for the Thralls: And confirmed no dual kit with the Reaver bow unit. https://www.warhammer-community.com/2018/04/10/who-are-the-namarti-apr-10gw-homepage-post-1/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those stats look very similar to something like swordmasters. If they are costed cheaply they'll be alright, anything with only one wound tends to suffer in my experience though.

I may do that instead of painting it to look like a great white (since looking up research pictures will probably give me a tension headache. I fear sea life). 11 minutes ago, Gecktron said: Looks like a Typo. I reloaded the page and both instances have been changed to Reavers. Boo!

Acid_Nine Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 So what does everyone think of the stat line provided? Kinda surprised they hit as hard as swordmasters, but between the bravery and armor they seem like they can fold like a paper towel when given enough attention by the enemy. Paired with the tides mechanic, Turn 1 cover will make them survive a bit more and turn 3 Always strike first will help make sure they strike before dying horribly, and for all I know they can re-roll saves in combat or something. Putting something more hardy in front may seem like a good idea, and there are hints that other characters can buff them, but for now this is feeling like a witch aelf kinda thing where you're going to need a lot of them despite the kit cost. also as a man on a budget I feel these are going to be bulk purchases for the $50 guys, and that makes me sad that I wouldn't be able to really start playing them.

Themoocher Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 Hard to tell with no point cost. I expect they will be the front line like every Warhammer elf unit. Great if they get to fight but will die fast. Coverturn one will help but I don't expect rerolling of saves. Fun fact we can use the giant sea turtles as a tank for our units if they have great survivability. Nice to have the ability to screen our units. It will ultimately come down to point cost.

Circus of Paint Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 The article confirms that the Namarti Thralls are the only pure Battleline unit, others (but not specified) can also be but under particular criteria (but again, not specified - probably attached to the Idoneth allegiance as well as taking a particular hero as your general. My conjecture!) At least I know Thralls can be popped into my mixed Order collection and still be Battleline. Excellent! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Austin Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 Yeah I like the stat line but jeez that’s a high cost for what they seem to saying is a chaff unit (money not points). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is specified -depending on chosen general - so it's quite obvious that both named characters will make two more units Batteline (I think guy on Deepmare makes eel riders BT and another one makes Reavers BT - and that would mean no BattleTraits or enclave specific bonuses (if the work like DoK temples and I believe so they do) "Namarti units make up the core of any Idoneth Deepkin army, with Namarti Thralls being the only standard Battleline unit in the list (though you’ll be able to unlock more, depending on your chosen general)" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quote They aren't saying it's a chaffe unit Battleline does not = chaffe. It says in the article pretty specificly that they can be protected by the forgotten alliegence ability. Meaning they aren't really meant to be your up front eat damage unit. They seem more the hammer or scalpel style unit. Nah thats incorrect becuase they do mention them being up front. Also had abit of a tactical thought. Big shooting units are going to be really frustrated by idoneth. If you have a unit of 9 skyres or similar big shooting unit, and the closest unit is some half dead 5 man squad. All of your shots have to go into that 5 man squad. That's pretty brutal.
