Really, I'm just wondering what's the most effective and ideal way to use them. Casting the spell on my first turn, whether I go first or second, is basic. On subsequent turns, I understand that if I go first then my enemy will get to move the predatory spell and will likely not hurt the pink horrors. If I go second on the second turn, I will get to control the predatory spell and attack my pink horrors but then it will be my enemy's turn before I get to use Fold Reality. If I go first and the enemy uses the predatory spell I created on the previous turn can I then unbind it with a wizard and recast it? Would that even be worth it? As and example: Can you not cast swords , damage the pinks and then give up a cast on another wizard to dispel the swords ? Also deploy in a way that means stuff you don’t want to be hit by the endless spells is well out the way ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure how practical it is to keep my pinks/endless spells away from other units. Partly because Arcane Sacrifice on the Gaunt Summoner requires him to be within 3" of the pink horrors, but even in the cases where I do not take that command trait I still think it'd be rather difficult. The swords move 8" and have a range of 6" so they've got a pretty good reach. Good advice, though. On second thought, if I make it so the Gaunt Summoner is on one flank of the Pink Horrors and I move the swords so that it is 6" away from the pinks on the opposite side, as long as the unit is more than 6" long, the swords won't be able to make it the gaunt summoner. They might be able to reach my acolytes, but that would just be a minor annoyance. I'll have to practice.

Just in general I wouldn’t rely too much on mortal wound output at range from skyfires now that they don’t work on 5 and 6 even if you give them +1 to hit (from the shaman for example). And -1 rend d3 damage, while good, is something the tree people are generally good at avoiding with their high base armor save for the most part. Alright now that I've had some sleep and thinking about how to best hurt those blasted Kurnoth Hunters hiding in trees, how would you think a Warpflame Host would perform? Something along the lines of: Herald of Tzeench of Burning Chariot (General) Herald of Tzeench on Disc Lord of Change Battleline: Burning Chariot x1 Burning Chariot x1 Burning Chariot x1 Other: Exalted Flamer x1 Exalted Flamer x1 Flamers of Tzeench x3 Flamers of Tzeench x6 Warpflame Host 1980 points so there is a decent chance I'll get a triumph reroll. Maybe against other armies I'd spend the last 20 on Soulsnare Shackles but since Sylvaneth don't really need to move, just teleport from trees to trees, the reroll might be more useful here. Everything flies, so shooting and magic nukes aren't blocked by trees, chariots can cause mortals when they move, and I figure from the mass shooting of the Flamers, 1 or 2 wounds are bound to get through, and with luck, Capricious Warpflame will deal another D3 mortals as well. I guess now my question about the Warpflame Host special ability, if an enemy unit is within 9" of multiple units from the battalion, can I roll 1 die for each of my units within the range or do I only roll 1 die regardless the number of units?

You can only dispel endless spell at the start of a turn so @CountryMou3e's plan wont work so much. Either way this is probably why I prefer pendulum and burning head. As pendulum can be set up so it wont come back, and burning head doesnt hurt that much or spike as high as swords. Anyway it's an average 4 mortals that could spike alot more for sure. That said if it's the case that you dont control your spell than you are going first, so it isnt all that bad. As you say with quick silver swords it isnt too hard to set it up so that the swords are to far to come back and hit you. Also, you get a whole movement phase to widen that gap should you need.

Kharneth Posted December 20, 2018 Share Posted December 20, 2018 @mmimzie good observations. The Pendulum and Burning Head are better if there's more than one unit, but the swords are cheaper and better against a single unit. Because of that I'm sort of stuck with it in 1,000 points. Now that I'm thinking about it, though, Chronomantic Cogs is 60 points that gives me 2 fate points each turn, perhaps spending 40 points on the Pendulum or Head would be a more valuable purchase. I almost always spend fate points on blue horrors anyway. Frankly, the danger of the swords striking my own units is not what bothers me the most. It's that I'd lose out on the ability to kill pinks and therefore summon blues on that turn that's bothersome. I'll just have to deal since I've been using them better than they're actually intended to be. I'll have to be sure that the swords aren't 12" away from my characters by the end of my movement phase prior to the any turn I gain initiative, but you're right that that's doable.

The swords are fine. and there are ways to be cheaky and get the out of range for them to hit anything but your pinks again, general my pinks stay the most behind my army if they are just there to kill themselves and fold themselves. You can always un summon and re summon your swords should you feel the need to. Edited December 20, 2018 by mmimzie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pandamina Posted December 20, 2018 Share Posted December 20, 2018 Can you guys explain me, please, how Geminids of Uhl-Gysh work right now? I've been told that they can inflict wounds, but not debuffs on the same unit, but in the errata i saw "A unit is not affected", so does it mean no double wounds?

Pandamina Posted December 20, 2018 Share Posted December 20, 2018 So, is Geminids of Uhl-Gysh spell considered to be weak? I guess it's still viable, as it's long range and you can hit two (or even more on 48*48 board) units with it and cripple their melee or ranged potential. Or maybe two units of pinks if you need. I will be trying this list next weekend. What do you think about it as an all-rounder? I try to keep my drops as low as possible, so there are two endless spells here.

You can always un summon and re summon your swords should you feel the need to. My pink strategy has varied a lot based on the enemy. They're always in the center and usually the last line protecting my gaunt and LoC, but I try to put them in positions where they're a good target but where they aren't likely to be killed off. I started by using Bolt or Mutation with them and in a game I rolled 0 DD results of 1 and in another I only had a single 1. So I realized that Fold Reality is kinda necessary for these unfortunate situations. With Fold Reality, however, I was less reliant on DD and when you suggested giving the Gaunt Bolt instead of Glimpse I found that was useful. Now, noticing that cogs isn't worth the points and without cogs Mark of the Conjurer is even worse (it might not've ever been worth it). So, if I replace cogs and take the pendulum I can effectively summon blues more effectively. With that in mind, I made a new list. I was 20 points too much for having 2 units of pinks. I can't find many better 80pt options if I removed the 3rd battleline unit, so I filled 20 points with shackles. 180 - Gaunt Summoner - Arcane Sacrifice, Glimpse the Future 380 - Lord of Change - Gryph-Feather Charm, Bolt of Tzeentch 200 - 10 Pink Horrors - Fold Reality 80 - 10 Kairic Acolytes 80 - 10 Kairic Acolytes 20 - Quicksilver Swords 20 - Soulsnare Shackles 40 - Aethervoid Pendulum Swords (4), Pendulum (3.5), and Arcane Sacrifice (2) means that the Pink Horrors will suffer an average of 9.5 mortal wounds, which means they'll be required to use Fold Reality in order to survive their own hero phase. The reason I'm taking Glimpse the Future back is because my ability to kill Horrors is now greater than my ability to regain them, I'll need every DD of 1 I can get. @mmimzie do you think this is too extreme/excessive? @Pandamina Those are the units I've been having success with. Without being able to fit a second unit of Pinks, paying 20 points for Swords to do avg 4 is pretty efficient. Pendulum and Geminids have the advantage of never wiffing and resulting in 0 mortal wounds, but they're more expensive. Also, random question. Is there a reason that Glimpse the Future specifically says that it can only be attempted by a single Wizard per hero phase? Isn't this already a universal rule - that a spell can only be attempted once? Edited December 20, 2018 by Kharneth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good evening ! only take cogs if you are gonna pick up the mark of conjuration, that said i think feather charm LoC is where it's at for the +1" move and -1 to hit. Balewind +arcane sacrafice is alright, but i prefer the portal. I like the portal because it's more flexible and gives your the heros the option to stay way back while they cast. While balewind + arcane lets you cast potentialy cast 2 spells with the gaunt summoners. The reason i prefer the portal is it's basicly +18" range on 1 spell. Which means you can really set up deep, while still threatening characters and big units alike with both the LoC and the Gaunt summoner. While the bale wind only lets you threaten horde units with the gaunt summoner, and is only a +6" (or a + 9" with sacrafice). That said you are just running 1 pink unit and quick silver + sacrafice is a great combo for getting pinks out quickly. I prefer fold reality on the pink horrors?? i like making that spell more reliable, but just a reference thing. i'd be careful on too many more support units, and maybe focus on more key units like maybe more pinks?? or an ogroid that can help you take more table space. Oh consider swaping the shaman for a chaos sorc lord, he's a stronger wizard. that said the shaman is a fast moving summoner. Kairos has a spell that while okay, has too high a casting value with no way of him buffing his own casting values outside of fate pts. The setting dice thing is either jsutb etter than a +1 to cast to just worse. more acolytes wouldn't be bad as they are anoying buddies, blues/pinks wouldn't be bad as well.

mmimzie Posted December 24, 2018 Share Posted December 24, 2018 (edited) 26 minutes ago, Grotruk said: Why not both ? 😜 because you are spending 100pts on two things that have a CHANCE to be useful IF you go first and if no they are useless. Also to get both out you are wasting some important cast attempts on important models. Either way i like the 2nd list more, i'd still also give fold reality to the pink horrors and drop the shaman for a sorcorer lord. His buff is twice the power of the shaman's aura when you are attacking first with your enlightend. Which you'll want to be doing despite there amazing attacking 2nd buff. It will let you be more offensive. The shaman is better when you get charged and counter attack as that actualy stacks, but killing more when you pick who fights who (IE your turn) is almost infinitly better than killing more when your opponent picks who you are fighting, even more so when your opponent has the option to either wipe your squad so you get no counter attacks or they can decide to just play keep away. The real loss between sorc and shaman is the loss in speed. As the shaman make a great long range summoner. either way i'd put fold on the pinks. The pinks have +2 to cast when in the aura buff of your LOC and fold is the more powerful/useful spell over something like unchecked mutation. You lose out on the turn one opertunity to cast unchecked aggressively, but i value fold reality higher. if you down grade the shaman, drop the shackles and the vortex you could grab a unit of kairic acolytes. Or you could drop the portal and shackles for the kairic acolytes. I like 4 screen units, makes you near immune to double turns. That said you list is likely fine as is i'm more just nit picking.

What newsun said, basically. The main thing he does is prevent Fold Reality from failing once per game, which should usually be enough to prevent it from failing at all but occasionally it will fail a second time, but it should be late enough in the game at this point that Fold Reality has done wonders. Replacing the 1 that destroys the unit is very helpful, but getting to turn it into a 6 means the unit is likely going to reach max again. He also can cast/unbind two spells very reliably and his Gift of Change spell can be used to place Chaos Spawns in disruptive positions. He's a large, monstrous threat as well. He might not be a powerful monster in combat, but he's still a monster and and has 7 attacks with a -1 and 2 damage. Combine him with the Lord of Change and you can jump down and tear something up. The Lord of Change has the best spell I know of, with a common average of 6 mortal wounds at the peak of his strength. Plus the utility of providing +1 to cast for all daemon wizards and being a very reliable cast himself. I don't think spamming Tzaangor Enlightened is the way to go, but maybe that is powerful. It's certainly challenging to defend more than 9, so I'd stick with the 9 and make sure to use them to your advantage by targeting the right enemy units and not being shy about casualties. The Gaunt Summoner mostly because 1) he can use the LoC's buff, and 2) the chances of having an enemy unit with at least 10 models for him to target is too likely. Pink Horrors for a battleline that never rests. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
