Or the other other one nobody talks about. (Bloodbite Axe and Runemarked Shield). Bloodbite and Shield. Near Wrathmongers, General and Banner buff you get 10 attacks. Try and get Killng frenzy off on him twice and you are doing d6 mortal wounds to a character or monster on a 4 plus. An average of 5d6 mortal wounds! Leeeeroy..

Gash Bauer Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 Most of my favorite moments have come from people's faces when I ask for the profile of the hero/monster that slew one. Watching a Runefather on magmadroth or Gorddrak thump themselves on the head is priceless. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With Bloodtithe points to move and the stoker, if you deploy him centrally it's not too hard to get him where he needs to be 16" move plus 3 to charge and rerolling that charge is pretty decent mobility wise 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Exalted Deathbringer combo is pure hilarity. But I was really curious about the Wrathmongers. Just good synergy it seems. I am also a Seraphon player so I like your list building from Lustria.online (i'm still crying inside about the Kroak nerfs) but its cool to see you playing Khorne too!

Bjornas Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 (edited) Hey guys, sorry to post yet another armylist but I'd love some feedback on this list I'm building towards. I want to have more of a mortal barbarian/oldschool Chaos Warrior theme than a hyper aggro Bloodbound theme in the army (my colour scheme is even brass/black metallic rather than the standard gold/bright red scheme). I paint alot more than I play, but my gaming circle is also not hyper competitive as far as I know. However, I've spent far too much time painting this army to have it not pack any punch at all so, I'd like to hear your comments on it. Allegiance: Khorne Home Realm: Ghur Lord of Khorne on Juggernaut 140-Artifact: Anraheir’s Claw (Realm Artifact, 6+ to wound = +2 dmg) Aspiring Deathbringer 100-Artifact: Collar of Khorne Slaughterpriest 100-Killing Frenzy Bloodsecrator 140 Bloodstoker 80 10 Blood Warriors 200-2x Goreaxes -Gorecleaver 10 Chaos Warriors 180-Hand weapons /Shields 10x Bloodreavers 70-Ripper axes 10x Bloodreavers 70-Ripper axes 3 Skullcrushers 140 -Glaives 5x Chaos Knights 160-Hand weapons 5x Skullreapers 170 -Deamon weapons -Soultearer 5x Skullreapers 170 -Deamon weapons -Soultearer Khorgorath 90 Battalion: Skulltake Battalion 190 Command points: 2 Allies: 340/400 Points: 2000/2000 My plan is to have the Knights and maybe the Juggers act as a fast anvil for the boosted infantry to hammer down on (I know handweapons on Knights aren't optimal, they're already painted though and they look damn cool with them too). For any bigger threats I think the Juggerlord can be a nice help, as his artifact synchronizes nicely with his abilities. I opted for a Collar of Khorne on the Asp. Deathbringer to further my magic defense. As said, not hyper competitive local scene as far as I see it but I still want to be able to dish out some damage. Let me know what you think Best regards, Bjornas Edited August 14, 2018 by Bjornas 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's just my opinion. The other issue with this guy is that all your eggs are sitting on a 5 wound model with a 4+ save. Poor dude is not very resilient. Seems fun tho.

Ravinsild Posted August 15, 2018 Share Posted August 15, 2018 (edited) I’m like the total opposite haha, of every Khorne player it seems. I’m super down to use Blood Tithe in creative ways and use (what I believe to be) the underutilized rewards to find some off meta value that can shake out a surprise tactic. I hate the daemons aesthetic except for Bloodthirsters so I only have Mortals period + SKARBRAND and an Insensate Rage Bloodthirster. I don’t play with summoning and I only run MSU because I prefer their mobility and ability to get places and reinforce, plus I like everyone or almost everyone actually getting to fight in combat (how many games have I tried the old 20 Reavers thing only for 10 of them to not even get a swing in... at which point what’s the point?) i prefer to push forward and make aggressive plays and I like aggressive battalions (Brass Stampede and Skulltake are my babies) but I do understand the value and power of Gore Pilgrims. I like to play a fast and loose rushdown style all moving forward in a wave and crushing them in melee rather than playing a patient waiting game or trying to draw them out. I also find myself often outrunning an unbuffed vanilla Bloodsecrator so I’ve seriously been considering just leaving him on the shelf and finding another way. I guess I’m trying to crack the list for a lightning fast Blitzkrieg style of warfare using mortals without summoning and MSU to get around quickly and efficiently and answer pressure points on the board without needing to stay anchored. Thats why I can’t leave home without a lot of Skullreapers and Khorgoraths and even Wrathmongers to a certain extent, and enjoy the power of the charge on Mighty Skullcrushers but I can never figure out what to do with my Battleline lmao. I think it’s entirely accurate to say I have a mild disdain for Bloodreavers and Blood Warriors viewing them more often than not as a necessary evil to meet minimum requirements. I’m also readily willing to use lesser used Slaughterpriest blessings and even cook up weird strategies involving them (Goretide + Slaughterborn turn 1 super charge involving blood tithe, Blood Sacrifice, And a successful blood bind to get the general in ASAP then the charges as quickly as possible). Im willing to leave no stone unturned in my quest to perfect my technique but it’s entirely possible if I start attending tournaments I’ll see exactly why nobody plays like this or runs these lists or these units or in this particular way. I think it’s also entirely possible I’m mimicking my World Eaters strategy from 40k, because if you don’t make a mad dash into melee ASAP you WILL get shot off the board, so the safest strategy is MSU put them in trucks and zoom up the board to get out and get in combat. Otherwise you’re a sitting duck and believe me T’au give me hemerroids. Edited August 15, 2018 by Ravinsild Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mikeymajq Posted August 15, 2018 Share Posted August 15, 2018 Decided to dust of my Skullcannon again, since I had 150 pts over in my list. Turn 1: missed a 2+ to hit... Turn 2: missed a 3+ to hit... Turn 3: Hit!... But failed to wound on a 3+... Also turn 3, charged in and killed two tzaangors. And then shot a unit of skyfires for 5 wounds. Turn 4: missed another 3+ to hit. Turn 5: hit and killed 5 blue horrors. yay! >.> So uh, it just about managed to make its points back, but this is probably the best it has ever performed in a game for me so I'm starting to think it's cursed 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LLV Posted August 15, 2018 Share Posted August 15, 2018 I like the idea of the cannons as summoned - Gives you something to do right away with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agent of Chaos Posted August 15, 2018 Share Posted August 15, 2018 @Mikeymajq yeah thats pretty much how mine always performs. Can't shoot for shite but somehow always does OK in combat and then does well with the bonus shot. I do rate them for summoning as LLV said, its in the game as soon as it drops.

kenshin620 Posted August 16, 2018 Share Posted August 16, 2018 Speaking of Blood Warriors, would they be more attractive if it was a special weapon per 5 models and the champion can also have his own (separate from the limit)? Not as crazy as sequitors having so many but at least you could pack 3 of them in a 10 man squad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think GW were needlessly nervous about the awesome power of 1 in 5 Bloodwarriors swinging a decent weapon when they die. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
