TheWilddog Posted March 25, 2018 Share Posted March 25, 2018 Hey guys just wondering if anyone has news of what is doing well at the top tables of the AOS main event at Adepticon. I know we will see the top tables tomorrow on the Warhammer TV feed but was just antsy to know what was going down. Particularly curious how the new Death lists are doing. Anybody heard anything?

I'm seeing lots of Tzeentch, Stormcast, mixed order, Fireslayers, Nurgle, Khorne. Some Death. Destruction is almost nonexistent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had to run out. Was it table 1? I caught the first, it was Round 4 table 2, Khorne Blodbound (Gore Pilgrims and Brass Stampede) verses Mortal Nurgle using the new book, with Khorne winning in a close one.

LLV Posted March 25, 2018 Share Posted March 25, 2018 Table 2 was shown. A fyreslayer army wrecked a seraphon one. Both were undefeated at that point. Russ Veal of Helena hammer fame was playing on table one but I’m not sure what with Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bozly Posted March 25, 2018 Share Posted March 25, 2018 I was just there yesterday came back home today. So Demons in doubles and in Singles have an enormous presence. Tzeench was a lot lighter this year but Tons of Nurgle and TONS of khorne. I swear there was only 1 slaanesh player Order is what we saw the most of next being Primarily party boat kharadron. Lots of ironclads. Lots on Endrins since I'm a kharadron player I mostly looked for them and I think I have about 9 pictures of armies that I actually took pictures of. There had to be more. Very few were not the party boat strategy. At most they may run two. One of the doubles players ran heavy Arkanauts but that was it. Lots of mixed order. I was really happy to see that. as much as I saw kharadron I saw mixed order. Lots of Frost Phoenix armies. My absolute Favorite I saw is all classic minis but he had a really strong list. I cant wait for the standings to se how he did 1 Celestial Hurricanum 1 Ironclad 1 archmage (or battlemage couldn't tell archmage made more sense) 30 Glade guard 30 Dwarf warriors hand weapon/shield 20 dwarf warriors 10 skinks 1 warden king When I get to my phone ill post the picture if its not on the twitter it was fantastic to see that army. I got to talk with the man who made this army and he was a really cool guy with another really strong mixed order list. He talked about how he's been doing really well after round two. But order was probably the most prominent overall With a healthy dusting of Stormcast, 3 -4 new witch aelves players even though they just came out they had insanely well painted armies for it being so new, Fireslayers were heavily present but not as much as you'd expect. Much more of them in Doubles. For those curious about doubles Slyvaneth was a huge presence in singles it was definitely there but it wasn't as prominent as it was in doubles. I saw someone say destruction was almost non existent but that wasn't true. They had a small showing. BUT so many goblins. I saw 2 squig players and that's not to mention the at least 8 ironjaws players I saw at least 2 Ogres and in doubles one all yeti player. But several goblin players were here. Especially spider riders. Spider riders were everywhere so thery are still here to stay. While chaos was mostly demons (and probably made up for half of the tournament) Skaven had a huge presence. Lots of rat ogres pretty much exclusively. There weren't many horde skaven armies besides one or two big units of giant rats. It was majority just rat ogres. My local shop keeper I wish I had the picture ran a gutter runner army with 3 vermin lords and did pretty well. Death was hugely prominent. Our army didn't get finished in time but we were going to bring Nagash and 15 dire wolves. Well Turns out that was the meta. Oh my god the amount of nagash 15 dire wolves. at least 8 of them and there weren't many in doubles. But Legions of nagash death was very prominent. There was a showing of flesh eaters but not very much. Most of what we saw that was flesh eaters were zombie dragon spam. All in all there was actually a pretty good mix. It was definitely chaos and order heavy. but there was enough destruction and death that it didn't feel cheated or imbalanced. I was really happy. Pretty sweet alariel conversion from the new morathi. This board drew a crowd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hello and thanks for your great summary WWhen you say rat ogres in the skaven lists, do you mean the Stormfiends? Such as in the lists with stormfiends equipped with warpfire throwers teleporting anywhere on the map? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bonzai Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 Were daughters of khaine allowed or were they too new? Im curious on how they are playing out. I'm happy to see such a diverse mix of lists. Kudo's to adam for placing so high with seraphon. Its also nice to see that change host is becoming a lot less dominant. It's still top dog, but seems to have lost a lot of ground, which is a a good thing. Its going to be interesting to see how the meta settles out after this string of rapid fire releases. Deepkin are around the corner, and supposedly there is going to be a new Death release as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they had their armies painted up to good quality the leading DoK player who placed 26th would have tied for 2nd place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
