My iron drakes iron warden on the first turn managed to hit one of his royal terrorghiests with both grudge hammer torpedos and then rolled 2 6s for damage. ended up with a major victory (due to my allied gun hauler burning 3 of his objectives on duality of death) and a death toll of 2 royal terrorghiest, 1 ghoul king ,and 3 crypt horrors on his side and 10 Longbeards, 20 hammerers and a warden king on mine. Now the records stands at like 2W vs 6L. Lol Haha you go iron warden. That’s some badass dice rolling 😂 well done though, because you wouldn’t have won only on that role. How do you find the gunhauler? Was it just luck that it won you the game or does it help consistently? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Cranky Dwarf Posted July 14, 2019 Share Posted July 14, 2019 (edited) Honestly the gun hauler was rubbish in combat.it Landed 1 shot through the whole game. However it's movement ability was crucial to me doing objectives when facing a elites only army. I took a gamble and etheriald my king rather than pickaxing, so it was all the non 4" movement I had. Its weapons are a bit too random to rely upon imo but when they work they work. But that 12 movement... it's nice to have something that can easily react to changes in the game.

Ironbreaker Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 I won my first Meeting Engagements game against Gloomspite Gits. I was about to lose the game final turn but I managed to charge my Knight Incantor into the blob of grots holding the objective and basically suicide bombed them by shattering all three spirit flasks. Managed to kill the majority of them (and sadly my last 3 Irondrakes) with it. The Knight Incantor and Runelord cleaned up the blob some more and it fell to battleshock. He only had the shaman left on the objective so I won by having one more model on the objective than him. It was a glorious ending even if it felt a bit dirty. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dammaz Posted July 20, 2019 Share Posted July 20, 2019 Aaaaand it's a soup tome... Maybe there will be some good possibilities for our dawi, or maybe not. Dawi plus Humgi plus Elgi ? Meh... Time to get the book, I think... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ragnar Alpaca Posted July 20, 2019 Share Posted July 20, 2019 Yeah I’m a little disappointed and surprised actually. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zadolix Posted July 20, 2019 Share Posted July 20, 2019 I'll hold judgement until more is revealed. I have no desire to collect other order forces so if this turns out to disappointing for pure dwarf players I'll be tempted to sell off to recuperate hobby money and build u my Gloomspite more instead. I thought the teasers in the fyreslayers codex would mean a Duardin tome but now I'm not so sure. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charlo Posted July 20, 2019 Share Posted July 20, 2019 I mean, all the rumours said it would be a soup tome, so it was expected. What's good is that there will hopefully be some real decent rules, written for the current system and no shortage of other units for countas 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ironbreaker Posted July 20, 2019 Share Posted July 20, 2019 (edited) I’m thinking of quiting Sigmar now. I want a book of MY DUDES, full of lore about MY DUDES, and art of MY DUDES. What I hate most is that this book is at the end of the day basically just GA: Order 2.0 Edited July 20, 2019 by Ironbreaker Misspelling 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Half my army comprise of those models. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thiagoma Posted July 20, 2019 Share Posted July 20, 2019 Im on on the same boat with my High Elves . Cant Dispossessed mix with Ironweld to make it own army? Human/Elf free? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would risk profits, better to just cram them all in the same book because **** you. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FPC Posted July 20, 2019 Share Posted July 20, 2019 Note that it did say a “full 7 allegiance abilities” so it at least appears they’re trying to keep the individual factions playable on their own. I highly doubt the units they’re talking about relegating to Legends will be staples like Warriors and Thunderers. With the FAQ increase to Warrior points, hopefully they’re here to stay AND getting better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thiagoma Posted July 20, 2019 Share Posted July 20, 2019 I dont think so. It will probably have 1 sub faction for each city. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zadolix Posted July 20, 2019 Share Posted July 20, 2019 Yeah they will be city sub factions/allegiances not racial ones. I don't even want my dwarves to come from free city... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want a throng of duardin with shield and axes standing before the gates to their stronghold. The only aelves nearby should be looking at our glorious beards longingly while rubbing his boyish chin. 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dammaz Posted July 20, 2019 Share Posted July 20, 2019 Aye, with you all along. If it appears that on Dispo side this battletome is just a GHB copy/paste, I won't even bother buying it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I understand people want their own book, but I don't think GW can support literally everyone in WFB having their own book PLUS AoS books. Sure they squatted bretonnia and tomb kings but imagine if they didn't consolidate, then what do we have? Order SCE DoK Fyreslayers KO Sylvaneth Seraphon Free Peoples Dispossessed Darkling Covens/Dark Aleves (not to be confused with the real shadow aelves) Wanderers Light/High Aelves (not to be confused with the real light alves) IDK 12 books! Thats almost the entire library of WFB! And who knows how long it'll take to print each one. 36 minutes ago, FPC said: Other than BoC for the most part, has this ever happened before? Even BoC, it was a pretty major jump. Very few people ran Brayherd Allegiances and even the stuff that got copy pasted over were altered a bit (like there was the old GHB artifact weapon that got purely buffed in BoC). And then they gained accesses to 2 brand new general traits, 2 new item lists, 1.5 spell lores, several battalions, tzaangors, many things under the monsters of chaos faction. Even if you just ran a pure Brayherd force (no warherd, thunderscorne or monsters) from BoC, it's leaps better than GHB2018. Once again I don't mean to belittle the pride of dwarf players, I'm a person who to this day still love Tomb Kings so I understand that gw doesn't share the love equally, but I think people are sounding a wee bit too hostile to this?
