The shattered dominion base detail kit, yeah That's a separate one from the shattered dominion bases. You'll get loads of stuff from that one! Ive still got the really old dragon skull with a chest of gold that GW used to make way back! Ive been saving it for a special day and i think the new moonclan will get the honours of having it on a base of a big squig/centipede monster!!! 😍 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What was it, if you don't mind me asking for the sake of knowing what exactly "No photos from the potato camera" means? I'm assuming it had nothing to do with the pictures/video released by GW themselves. Basically it's a phrase that we use to refer to all awful grainy leaked pictures Have a quick gander at the WHTV Video on YouTube (which is hilarious). The list of what's cool to post is listed in our site rules (spoiler: items from GW are fine) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thostos Posted December 26, 2018 Share Posted December 26, 2018 The Recent FaQ adding official base sizes shows Grots on 25`s,,doubt very much they would change that. Interesting that the Fanatic is not listed though...probably will be 32s for those guys,,which is totally fine by me as the smaller bases fell over all the time with the old models.

Fanatics and shroom fanatics are the same kit, and I’m not convinced they will do armoured grots but that’s still a lot of new models which is great Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ekrund Oath Splitters Posted December 26, 2018 Share Posted December 26, 2018 i dont think we will get mushroom zombies, i think it was just a cinematic of the badmoon cursing people, it will probably be a spell that deals MWs on 6s haha! Armoured grots i also dont think we will get, the moonboss and squig herders will have armour as they are dealing with squigs but for heavy "infantry" i think thats what the purpose of trolls are! thats always been their role in a gobbo army. Having your 2nd or 3rd rank of Gobbos being trolls will be fun with there 2" range meaning they cant be hit back. Like the old Kroxigor and skink combo and dryads and kurnoth hunters.

SuperHappyTime Posted December 26, 2018 Share Posted December 26, 2018 I regret clamoring for the combining of armies into "Legions", because I thought Spiderfang and Moonclan both had enough going for them to be their own factions. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reduce Grot units to purchase blocks of 10 in matched play from the current 20..more granularity and perhaps add in a point break for units of 40+ Make that new terrain piece spawn cave squigs! Grot catapult,and doom divers are useful. To hit debuff spell that can be applied to Grot units(debuffing incoming attacks of course) Would LOVE if that thing generated Sqiugs! Either that, or an aura effect like the Brayherd terrain that infected enemy units with spores. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What could you add... spider swarms, flying spiders, grot scuttlings, medium sized spiders, spiders riding spiders who fire little spiderlings with web bows! If they werent dedicated to the whole spider god theme they could have all types of creepy crawlies like scorpions, beetles, centipedes, mosquitos, snails (😂😂) and worms. But if you added those things to a spiderfang army, it doesnt really suit there fluff and nature, as after all they worship spiders. Everything they do involves them. So i think its logical that they are included in a joint army with moonclan and troggoths. Speaking of troggoths they have the same issues, they can keep adding all types of trolls, hall trolls, troll kings but each one plays the same but with a different ability on each warscroll. What this book is doing is unifying these smaller subfactions into a better one that still can be played as seperate faction (if troggoths get a hero and battleline options) compare this to ironjaws with there 5 or so units, id say spiderfang are looking they get such choice! Im going to love adding some spiders to my night gobbos and trolls. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They do both have enough as concepts that they could make factions out of each of them. But we still don't know how the rules for this book are going to end up. It could take ideas from Beasts of Chaos and have multiple allegiances that you could combine and so Spiderfang might still be their own thing. Or it might be more like Legions of Nagash and have multiple playable allegiances within it. Or, it could just be that they are moving those old allegiances together and this is now a single allegiance. We just don't know. But honestly, I am glad that they are doing SOMETHING with grots aside from just ignoring them. Beggars can't be choosers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully the new Troll kit has options to make 3 Troll lord slots, so if they come 3 to a box, picking up 3 boxes nets you enough to play a game right off the bat. Maybe a Troll King, Troll Shaman, and Troll Banner? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Usually Underworlds follows closely the AoS factions.

It might be a while, but I can be patient. I will wait until they make something and then the conversion fun begins. I love the Throgg model so much.
