Nevar Posted March 23, 2019 Share Posted March 23, 2019 13 hours ago, MrRoff said: Also in the rules it's stated that you can't reroll a successful charge, only a failed. So if you charge with your grims and manage to roll let's say 8, and you're close enough to any enemy unit you must charge and can't reroll it. If this is true I am the biggest cheater on the planet. I don't see where or why you cannot re-roll successful charges. That said, it has never gotten me a WoT, but I have tried it several times unaware this was against the rules if it is...

Unless there is a FAQ somewhere that disputes this, there is nowhere in the core rules that says you can' reroll any charge roll you want, the command ability has no mention of it needing to be for a failed charge, as there can be many reasons to want a longer charge range, even if it technically brings you in range of an opponent (which you do not need to choose before having a final roll). You can also choose not to charge at all, despite being able to reach something, this happens after having the final roll anyway, but it prevents the unit to make any further charge attempts, which I don't think matters for anyone at this point.

MrRoff Posted March 23, 2019 Share Posted March 23, 2019 (edited) How many times can you cast Arcane bolt? I know mystic shield is only once with 1 wizard. But is there a limit to how many Arcane Bolt you can throw with diffrent wizards? ALSO, sorry for my last comment where i said that you can't reroll a successful charge roll. A guy we're playing with that is really read up on the rules said that and searched on his phone and said this to us. Gonna ask him next time where he read that, my bad carry on re-rolling.

Axter Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 Hi guys, sorry for the question but how do you bring the miniature around? I have a tournament in 2 week and i willbring nighthaunt, but i do not know how to move them without them to be damaged. On internet i did not find nothing that seems safe enough, apart from feldherr but those are really expensive and i'm not sure that those are enough safe for nighhaunt.

spoon_fed05 Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 Axter, i transport my models in cupcake holders. They are plastic boxes that come in two tiers. Take out the cupcake bit (which I use as a palette) and line the box with ferrous metal sheet (from amazon). Magnetise the minis and they stick down nicely. I have seen someone use biscuit tins with magnetised models as well. Not sure about larger models tho. I just put them in a box with polystyrene packing material, that seems to hold them but I don’t like this way of doing it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neck-Romantic Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 (edited) I have a battlefoam case for my necrons; but for lower budget transport you can try a large tacklebox lined with felt or foam Edited March 25, 2019 by Neck-Romantic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use the foam trays, similar to felherr cases, that came with a GameWorkshop branded carrying case, about 200 dollars CAD from a few years ago. Has more than enough room for 2000 pts. They protect the models real nicely, but you still have to be careful when placing or removing them. The little whispy bits get caught in the foam sometimes.

Evil Bob Posted March 26, 2019 Share Posted March 26, 2019 Most of my Nighthaunt are in Plaino tackle trays (2x deep, 1x large but shallow). Big and breakables in a “pelican case” rip off from Harbor Freight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmorley21 Posted March 27, 2019 Share Posted March 27, 2019 So I've got a hobby question for you all. I've been using cotton on the bases of my models to attempt to create a "just emerged from the underworld fog." However, I found this to not be very practical for actual gaming. I've only played at my house so far with friends, but am hoping to be able to travel to gaming stores this summer to play against a larger variety of opponents. So, a few questions: Has anyone else gone for this effect? If so, any tips? I am in the process of magnetizing my models as I have found the cotton loves to stick to the old-school GW foam that I have... and also the models don't fit in my old carrying case.

SleeperAgent Posted March 28, 2019 Share Posted March 28, 2019 What do you guys think the chances are for Mourngul to get a points reduction after the GHB update?

Sadly I agree, I love the mourngul and would love to see it get a point decrease or some changes but that won't probably happen... In aos 1.0 before I started playing there was a tournament where a guy brought out 2 mournguls and his opponent just gave up on the spot and forfeited the match. That's how broken they were.

SleeperAgent Posted March 28, 2019 Share Posted March 28, 2019 I can see how people thought it was OP back then, but it really isnt anymore. I usually compare it to Retributors, who for 80 less points, get 5 more wounds and 3 more attacks (assuming you use all lightning hammers).

It's not worth 300p at this points, especially with all new stonger and stronger battletomes that's coming out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OR if they wanna keep it at 300 give the 3+ save back. Everything does mortal wounds these days, Mourngul isn't the Boogeyman (rules wise) anymore.

Neck-Romantic Posted March 29, 2019 Share Posted March 29, 2019 (edited) I would love to see it get some attention but FW stuff isnt their priority.

Scurfturf Posted April 8, 2019 Share Posted April 8, 2019 (edited) I am very close to building my first 2000pts Nighthaunt list, and I'm looking for some advice of how to round it out. Here is what I have so far: Allegiance: Nighthaunt LEADERS Lady Olynder, Mortarch of Grief (240) - General - Lore of the Underworlds : Shademist Reikenor the Grimhailer (180) - Lore of the Underworlds : Spectral Tether Guardian of Souls with Nightmare Lantern (140) - Lore of the Underworlds : Soul Cage - Infernal Lantern (Artefact) : Beacon of Nagashizzar Knight of Shrouds on Ethereal Steed (140) Spirit Torment (120) Vampire Lord (140) - Flying Horror - Allies UNITS 20 x Chainrasp Horde (160) 30 x Grimghast Reapers (360) 9 x Spirit Hosts (360) TOTAL: 1840/2000 WOUNDS: 112 LEADERS: 6/6 BATTLELINES: 3 (3+) BEHEMOTHS: 0/4 ARTILLERY: 0/4 ARTEFACTS: 1/1 ALLIES: 140/400 As a huge noob, I'm looking for any and all advice. Not only do i need to fill another 160 points, but I'd be find with removing some stuff to add others. I don't know my local meta, so i can tune for that later. Thanks in advance!

I would make one of the unnamed heros your general so you can have the command trait Ruler of the Spirit Hosts. Lady Olynder's No Rest for the Wicked is good but I prefer to return d3 spirit hosts because you end up with more free wounds on average. Then you can also save command points to charge re-rolls to fish for Waves of Terror. You should also probably use 120 of those spare points on at least a Spirit Torment. The re-roll hits of one do a lot of work. Edited April 8, 2019 by SleeperAgent 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Qrow Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 I have decided to run nighthaunt in an upcoming path to glory campaign. The rules we have been given specify that we will be rolling on the tables instead of selecting followers and the like, but what is the best nighthaunt hero to choose as the champion? I'm stuck between: Guardian of souls; +1 to wound is great, but if he doesn't get his spell off it seems like a waste Knight of shrouds on steed; extra attacks will be really good as unit sizes will be small, especially if I am lucky enough to roll revenants. Spirit torment; comes with 2 chainghasts instead of an extra follower to begin with, but his returning models would be more conistant than the GoS, and re-rolls of one would be great.

Neck-Romantic Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 Mounted KoS will only buff one unit with extra attacks; rather than an aura like the foot version just fyi. Small units wont benefit as much Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tropical Ghost General Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 So I stopped playing ghosts for a while. Hit the hobby wall (after doing pretty much only playing AoS and just bedsheets for nearly a year!!). So had a break around Christmas, as life and work stuff got in the way. I used the new year to start a new army and picked up FEC to complete my Death collection, then the new book came out and it was great. I played in a little 1k tournament and won but felt guilty at how gross FEC were and so refused to play them in friendly games, instead picking my ghosts back up again. Had some friendly games and it re-ignited the passion for the spooks. So what has been going on for ghosts in the last 3-4 months? Has anyone discovered any new gross stuff that I should be aware of?
