Luke1705 Posted August 1, 2018 Share Posted August 1, 2018 Plaguebearers are a decent choice if you don’t have enough points for the blightkings. You could do 20 marauders, but the plaguebearers are harder to shift vs rend and are more resilient to battleshock, while still having more bodies than warriors Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sal4m4nd3r Posted August 1, 2018 Share Posted August 1, 2018 (edited) Tried positioning a branch busting through his "shoulder" as if roots broke through flesh. This made a nice platform for ethrac to stand on. I REALLY like the roots bursting through... Its nice that ethracc has a spot to stand on but he hides the dope roots conversion! BLAST! Maybe I keep the roots, and just stick ethrac on the base.... Dont mind the string. On the tree is is holding it together tight as glue dries. Around the roots because poster tac not strong enough to hold as I viewed it from all angles and for pictures.

sal4m4nd3r Posted August 1, 2018 Share Posted August 1, 2018 (edited) @hughwyeth With more paint of course! I dont think it will be a problem..? I know the colors and recipe I used. Plus its flesh so variations are fine. If it doesnt look the same.. add more shades and drybrushes and it will blend! lol Plus Im going to add those GW creeping vines all over him.

Today I Play Against disciples of Tzeentch and Can Be a Good use because I wont cast any foul regenesis Yeah it's tough to get through those denies, but if you can get the 5 -> 6 -> 5 cycle going every turn, it's absolutely BRUTAL. Increases the durability of all your models plus lets you snipe characters in a way that can't be denied ? Personally, I'm not really a huge fan of grandfather's blessing because if you start far away on the wheel and continually fail to cast foul regenesis, it's not a hugely important trait. Then again, I run Archaon as my general, so I wouldn't know the difference ?. I do think that grandfather's blessing is a good utility trait, but that some others can shine in certain builds (hideous visage for example if you want to focus on bravery debuffs) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sal4m4nd3r Posted August 1, 2018 Share Posted August 1, 2018 If you are playing with a mortal or rotbringer General..there isn’t much you can take that’s useful besides grandfathers blessing. I think virulent blade (add -1 rend to generals melee attacks) and hideous visage are probably two of the best. Pesilent breathe on a harbinger isn’t bad. Still not sure if it’s better then grandfathers blessing. I played a game against sylvaneth dreadwood recently. Wheel started at the worst spot possible IMO (stage 3). When it was my turn 2 and it ticked go 4, I used he blessing to move it to 5. Getting that debuff really helped. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peasant Posted August 1, 2018 Share Posted August 1, 2018 Guys! Ive Just played 2 games Against My Most Feared Army, disciples of Tzeentch. My 1st Game ever was Against This Army ( I played a tallynband... I Know I Know) and by Turn 2 I was obliterated. This Time I won The 2 Games!! nurgle mortals are Amazing, The Blessed sons battalion is Awesome 1500 Points= 3CP, 3 artifacts, 1 Drop... Despite of Suffering Huge amount of Punishment The Putrid blightkings Got Some Charges T1 and All of them T2! The Bad was That My Lord of plagues was oneshoted The 2 Games with Magicks, so Next Time instead of ghystrike I Give Him Some Protection Against MW.

5kaven5lave Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 Tempted to try allying in a Great Bray Shaman into my list (80 points), they’ll miss out on allegiance bonuses and their passive move buff will be wasted but that devolve spell looks really interesting, making an opponent move 2D6 towards you to drag them into charge range or off an objective. Any thoughts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
