ByronicHero Posted April 14, 2019 Share Posted April 14, 2019 (edited) I would like somebody to please clarify the rule of Corpsemare Stampede spell. When it refers to 'wounds characteristic of a unit', is this the total wounds, the average wounds per model or some other factor? For example, if it rode through a unit of 10 ghouls and then a unit of 3 flayers would I automatically deal 5 mortal wounds to the ghouls and then roll 5 dice for the flayers wounding on 4? Thanks in advance. Edited April 14, 2019 by ByronicHero Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks in advance. They usually refer to the original wound characteristic. I think very few damaging spells or abilities rely on the remaining wounds.

The rules are pretty clear: cast it on a 7, set up 3d6“ away, move the spell 14“, if it passes across a unit (or more), roll 5 dice for that unit (or each), You have to roll HIGHER than the wound characteristic to cause 1 mortal wound to that unit (ghouls on 2+, knights on 5+), if you roll a 6, you deal d3 MW, whatever the wound characteristic (even a terrorgheist)...

wayniac Posted April 15, 2019 Share Posted April 15, 2019 I am of the mindset that the Gristlegore Monster Mash is too gimmicky. There are armies that will shut it down (new Fyreslayers spring to mind) and you're basically putting all your eggs in one basket. I did like the Gristlegore Ghoul Patrol list though that didn't go monster mash that's floating around occasionally (it's like two kings on monsters, Archregent, 40/10/10 or something ghouls, Ghoul Patrol). Personally, I like Hollowmourne and Blisterskin because I really enjoy Flayers and Horrors. Feast Day does seem really good but I have hangups on making a courtier the general, sadly. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure I sound like a noob, but that's fine with me because I am one. Is there somewhere specific that I can be sure to find the most accurate erratas and such?

Thanks. And a final question, as I know you enjoy them so much: I have just noted the 'Deathless Courtier' ability in the Battletome. When I was being shown how to play this didn't come up at all despite there being situations where it could have. This may however have been due to the reduced complexity of the game we were playing. So, is this an ability that all FEC armies have irrespective of the court they choose? Edited April 15, 2019 by ByronicHero 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Honk Posted April 15, 2019 Share Posted April 15, 2019 2 hours ago, ByronicHero said: So, is this an ability that all FEC armies have irrespective of the court they choose? Yes, it is the deathless minion save of the undead... after failing your save, your unit would take x damage. If the unit is WHOLLY within 12“ of a FEC hero (it is of course within its own radius) you can ignore that damage on a roll of 6. if models are outside the 12“ rule you can kill them off first and roll for deathless for the rest. f.e. a horror punches himself in the face. 4+ to hit, 3+ to wound... now it tries to save with armor (5+) fails. Gets 2 dmg. Luckily a king is standing within 12“, so he gets an extra save 6+ for the damage, roll 2 dice, (4;6) one successful, looses only 1hp 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems pretty nice to be able to be able to save 1/6 of ghoul wounds. Slightly better chance of keeping the 10 man units alive for Vargulf and Chalice. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ByronicHero Posted April 17, 2019 Share Posted April 17, 2019 I was thinking today. In my 1200 point army which was going to include 1 ATGOGK, 1 AAR, 6 horrors, 20 ghouls and a couple of spells, what are the downsides to taking AGKOTG, 2 x 10 ghouls and 3 AAR who all run up to the throne and summon whatever I need. I am essentially trading the 2 endless spells for 2 wizards and the ability to choose the units I want for whatever I am against. I also lose some initiative due the units not coming in until the end of turn 1, but I wonder if that is countered by the ability to deploy near any edge. I am sure this isn't an original thought. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chikout Posted April 17, 2019 Share Posted April 17, 2019 So- a question to all the FEC players. It has come to the attention of the community that FEC are rather good. It seems inevitable that they will get some attention in the upcoming FAQ. Unfortunately GW has been known to be rather heavy handed when it comes to dealing with dominant armies. So how would you take the edge of FEC but still keep them as a strong army capable of winning tournaments? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought it might be interesting to hear the opinion of people who play the army. Also Dok will almost certainly get some points changes in ghb 2019.

Nothing, they will bring future lists more in line with them. The power disparaty will be a temporary thing as GW calibrate the game to level they want it at. They're still finding a comfort level as comparatively the game is very new. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Make Savage Strike one use per battle, no other FEC list is as hard to counter as Gristlegore (Usually when I play it half of the opponent's army just leg it when they see my general approach because it's close to impossible to kill him in melee) So nerfing SS would be the only way to put FEC in line without crippling other builds IMO 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don’t really know about that, they are still overpriced naked crazies... most of it looks pretty good and playable, with the classic power creep expected for a new book. (Khorne looks brutal and the new naked slayers...) 18 minutes ago, XReN said: no other FEC list is as hard to counter as Gristlegore There are some serious synergies with ferocious hunger, gruesome maw, savage strike and feeding frenzy, unfun synergies. Sometimes wonder who designs those rules, because there seems to be something broken in every book. best counter against the munch-king seems to be a serious gunline...or a hand of dust portal. But what about shootcast or DoK ?! The discussion tags along the basic „what type of game do we want to play“ line. Top tier tournament vs fluff 'n fun... if I field a working Nagash list or other filth, my opponents know Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
