Love to see a very similar list to one of mine win this matchup. I would personally put the aetherquartz brooch on 1 of the wardokks, since they can stay near a blob anyways, all protected and to put the Mystic Waaagh! Paint on the Wurrgog. The Wurrgog has 2 unbinds, so you would double benefit from it. The other thing I would change, is swap hand of gork(or mork) with the wardokk's Gorkamorka's Warcy. It's more likely to be effective, because he has 1 bravery higher than a wardokk. I can understand if you did it for the better casting on the wardokk, but you can also weird dance him up. if you like to, making it a bunch more likely to go off well and be succesful as well as having like +3 if not more on his unbinds as well, on 36" range if you put the Mystic Waaagh! Paint on him as well. Heavy magic dominance. Edited March 8, 2019 by That Guy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

svnvaldez Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 @PlasticCraic did the 200 points of big stabbas do anything? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PlasticCraic Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 @svnvaldez yeah, they were quite handy to have in a couple of games, mainly in one game against a Mixed Destruction list with a few monsters. They were a useful threat to deter charges (parked behind the front row of my Arrow Boys), or to punish people who did charge. Overall I'm not sure if I'd be better off with 4 more CPs to OctoBang the Command Ability Turn 1, and guarantee the Triumph. Maybe. But they are the only fun part of the list (and are summonable), so that would probably tilt me to keeping them if I ran the list again. I really want to run a Big Stabbas focussed list at some point this year, 2 big blocks in a Teef Rukk with all the pile ins and allies Warboss. Would be pretty cool I reckon. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The soul crushing look of both players when 30 arrowz comes back! Haha just the one, but I only had 2 games where I lost units so I didn't roll that many dice at it. It was 30 Arrow Boys that came back on a 6 though! I'll do a proper write up later. Edit: I'm gonna do a List Rundown on THWG which I will link here, and write up the batreps directly on here. I think that will be the best format. Edited March 19, 2019 by PlasticCraic 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PlasticCraic Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 Just for fun, what would be everyone's Big Stabbinest list? I've got 12 bases but I've never used them all at once, quite keen to give it a go! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
broche Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 i've got 6, they never disapointed me. Good damage, 3'' reach. And lot of monster in list these day. I think i would love to play 8 sometime 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Side note: How amazing would it be if you got 2 free stabbas for every 8 orruks and they were just part of the unit (like netters) with mixed bases. This would be cool for ogres as well that come with a few grots in the box. Help them gain models for objectives. I really like the idea of mixed based units.

PlasticCraic Posted March 22, 2019 Share Posted March 22, 2019 The "Who Fights First" article throws us a minor bone by the way. Probably just cementing what we already knew, but if Boarboy Maniaks pile in for the second time at the end of the phase, and bring in a unit that was previously not in combat, that unit will not get to retaliate because the "during" window has passed - they cannot be selected as an alternating unit in the "end of" sub phase. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PlasticCraic Posted March 22, 2019 Share Posted March 22, 2019 (edited) I've posted up the Rundown for my Bonegrinz list, take a look and let me know your honest feedback. I'm not one of those people who asks for feedback and then tries to shoot it all down to prove they were "right", so please do let me know your thoughts on any changes you would make! Especially with the Big Stabbas - would you keep them in there, or is that a bit of fat? https://thehonestwargamer.com/aos-list-rundowns/dakka-dakka-dakka-shooting-is-back-baby/ Edit: Browing the Rundowns on THWG, I noticed that Ben Savva has a very similar list (he did use the 200 points differently, taking a Prophet and Cogs instead of the Stabbas). FWIW I did not copy Ben's list, we arrived at similar lists independently, as this post of mine from January hopefully demonstrates! And I'm sure he used it better than me too Edited March 22, 2019 by PlasticCraic 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I'm sure he used it better than me too All these lists are just Nicky Myland's list from Dec 2017 And I don't even remember the dudes name who was smashing face with double Krukk when arrows were 100 points for 10 and capped at 40! I think whoever that was has to be the OG krukk player. Just found a file on my computer titled "1. GH1 - x - Rob Sedgemans.pdf" Sometime long ago in the age of GH1 at event "x" this list was ran lol. I'm a total loser who has tried to back up all well placing GT destruction lists. Now that Dan from AOSshorts does it so well I have gotten lazy. The legendary "Da Great Green"... what a name. This man knew his list was destined for greatness.

PlasticCraic Posted March 22, 2019 Share Posted March 22, 2019 Man, those points values make me so nostalgic! Yeah I remember that one, with Sedge playing on "The Stream" before it was even a thing! It was some event at WHW (not a Heat, it was called Warlords or something) that was broadcast on YouTube - maybe the videos are still up? Sedge played Terry Pike ,with Rob Symes commentating and the book was brand new. Terry was using Kairos to control the priority roll and still couldn't win priority 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Serious note thou... I don't know if it is better, I don't know if it is more fun, but Bonegrinz with the mandatory 2 casters is 1750. Ever played with adding in gloomspite endless spells? Do we still need 1 drop? would 2 or 3 be fine? Add in the mushroom bomb and a caster to come in at 1910? maybe add in a cave sham? This is 2 drops. You can't cast both those spells in a single turn but maybe you will have games where they can't dispell 1 and you get the other up as well. Might be a blast to play with. If you own 2 models and pay twice can you have 2 mushroom bombs? Pretty sure there are some rules on that in the endless spell section but I don't remember if it says yes you can or no you can't. 100% you can't cast 2 in the same turn but maybe you can lay down double clouds over 2 turns. Ben Savva's list is nice since he uses those 250 for 2 unbinds with +1 (Prophet and paint) and adds cogs for 1 of the 2 spells the prophet will be casting. I don't have the book open but I think cogs is 2 to movement (in any phase?) so that is an extra 4 inches of alpha strike if he needs it. 2 in the hero and 2 in move (double check that). I have seen him play on stream in which if he alpha strikes he then typically charges (at +4 from cogs and drums) to tag a single model in to slow the enemy down for a turn.

Yeah I like that, very smart. Threatening the back board turn 1 with your shooting, then +5 to charge when you add in Brutal Beast Spirits, Zooooooooom! Gives you quite a few cracks at dispelling too, with the 2x casts from the Prophet (3x if you choose to slow down Cogs). 33 minutes ago, svnvaldez said: If you own 2 models and pay twice can you have 2 mushroom bombs?

No it's one of each spell per army (I have had a game where both players cast Cogs ). I do like the suggestion though.
