Imperial Posted January 5, 2019 Share Posted January 5, 2019 So we lost our new shiny command ability for Fugroid, but got Skragrott? Nice trade as i can see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timcz Posted January 6, 2019 Share Posted January 6, 2019 Just have a question - been playing a lot of 8th ed 40k, so picking up Sigmar 2.0 now, and I notice many people here are declaring a mortal realm withe their lists. How does that work? All I could see in the rulebook was both sides select where/which realm the battle is taking place in and that rule applies. Or is there something im missing that lets everyone select a realm to use? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Awesome - just found them thanks! So the realm section of the main core rulebook - you dont get any advantages from that, thats only if both sides choose to fight in a particular realm?

broche Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 yes fungoid is pretty cool now. It's up to 90? where did you find new point cost? Troll are also much better. +1 to hit, and +1 attack (assuming they still cost the same) anyway that mean i have to change my list for Vegas lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

broche Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 Yeah just found point on the Gloomspite threads, 90 indead. Not that bad. I could swap Zarbag for Fungoid + ironsullz boys. Loosing the fanatics hurt, but .5 extra command per turn and extra units for waaaagh is not that bad i guess! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Totally not ridiculous. CP smap very good option, but i think we can replace 2 fungoid with skraggrott. for 30 points we got 28" 6 3+ 3+ -1 1 attack with inflicting 1 mortal wound at end of battle round. You can shoot at 6 units and make 6 additional mortal wounds! With Arachnocauldron he will got 2 cast/2 unbind with +2! Nice buildin spell to disable enemy artefact (on 8+ with Arachnocauldron!) It's very good option. With 3 fungoid we will got only 1 shaman to cast 1 moonclan spell and 2 for cast arcane bolt and mystic shield. It's good, but i prefer cast 2 spell from moonclan lore each turn instead of 2 spells in 1 battle round and 1 spell in rest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One super interesting allies option is the Boingrot Bounders, at 100 points for 5 they have a /model destructive bulk and not terrible attack stats, throw in a Loonboss on Giant Cave Squig and they move pretty quickly as well.

Superninja Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 What is a good 1000 point list? I am going to play in a 1k tournament on sunday. I would like to bring Ironjawz but I could bring Nighthaunt. Help please. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timcz Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 I’m not sure how to post lists like everyone else does (is there a easy way?) But I’ve been testing the 1000 points recently with a megaboss, 2 warchanters, 2 brutes and 2 gore gruntas with mixed success. It’s 950 points so get 1 extra CP which helps but kind of feel the need for more bodies on the table. Dropping a chanter gets me 130 points spare which I’m tempted to throw in a unit of 20 shootas for fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Button which will bring it up. You can then select either full of short version of it and there's copy button. After that just paste it into the comment. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superninja Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 (edited) I have used a similar list @Timcz . The problem I had was that a buddy has been using the celestar ballista and taking out my Megaboss fairly quickly. I expect him to be at the tournament with a list that uses ballista. So I have been trying to build with 2 sources of waagh. But it just seems meh. I could switch out the ironskull's boys for a warchanter.

Superninja Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 (edited) This is an ardfist list I was looking at. I think it may be the best of the bunch. Not sure if the ardboys are enough punch. I guess with Waaagh, they should be. Could switch in a megaboss, since there would be 6 Ironjawz units at that point, but I may want to put the warchanter hidden somewhere if possible. The lack of a wizard in every list is a problem as well.

Malakree Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 (edited) @Superninja ally in a unit of sporesplatta fanatics rather than a second waaagh! Source. If you want to specifically hate on the balista drop, there's an ulgu artefact called bracers of illusion I believe. Use it at the start of a shooting phase to make the character untargetable for that phase. Edited January 12, 2019 by Malakree Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superninja Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 (edited) I don't have any sporesplatta fanatics. I am sure there will be a couple players using (2) stormcast and (2) nighthaunt. 1 player probably going to play KO, but could mix in dispossessed or fully dispossessed, or even go with Skaven. KO are my guess, but skaven is just as likely. I believe there is a Beasts of Chaos player. Possibly a Fireslayers player. One player will be playing Khorne, possibly a 2nd player as well. I have a buddy who plays tzeentch but I think he is unable to make it. Thats about as good an estimation as I can get of what I'll see. There should be 4 or more people that I have never seen at the shop I go to, so I am not sure what to expect for them.

Malakree Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 @Superninja Wrong artefact it's in Shyish. The Ragged Cloak - Once per battle, at the start of your opponent's shooting phase, you can declare the bearer will shroud themselves with the Ragged Cloak. If you do so, the bearer may not be chosen as the target of an attack until the end of the phase. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superninja Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 (edited) @Malakree I am not sure about a 1 time use artefact for just the shooting. It definitely addresses the shooting situation, for a turn, but I feel like the -1 to hit from the gryph feather charm or miasmatic blade will provide a nice layer of protection against shooting (especially when combined with lookout sir) and add some more durability in melee as well. The other mainstay choice is Ignax's scales. To help vs. mortals. Obviously that would help vs. the field as well. But that's another can of worms. Thank you for the responses btw!!

Kramer Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 Hi green people! Quick question with the price rise off the start collecting and Ironjawz being one of the most discounted I might just pick it up. Main goal for a converted skirmish band but long term for a small army. Is it good value? Money wise it seems so, but do you actually use the models in the box?
