The rule states if you first roll to regenerate is successful then you get to double the regen, the hag just gets the regen, she does not roll for it. Until it is FAQ’ed otherwise I believe that is the way to play RAW. Yeah, having done some research I agree with you now, mainly due to the fact that the Hag’s ability is called ‘Hag Regeneration’, not ‘Regeneration’ as named in the Allegiance Abilities. That said, I do think the use of ‘or’ in the wording doesn’t stipulate that a roll must take place (though obviously it does for the new ability). Doubt they’ll FAQ it but it’s safer to not play it. D6 is loads unless you’re me and keep rolling 1s!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D6 is still way better than the regular Troggoth regeneration even when they are under the moon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mayple Posted January 18, 2019 Share Posted January 18, 2019 (edited) Troggboss is at 4+/3+ in the app now. Glitch, or sneaky nerf? Edited January 18, 2019 by Mayple Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5kaven5lave Posted January 18, 2019 Share Posted January 18, 2019 Hmmm, the app can be unreliable sometimes. While we’re on about the boss, how are we gonna paint that bad mutha if we want to keep the pale skin. Spray white, purple(?) wash and dry brush it up with something like Pallid Wych?

I'm not a big fan of the white/pale Troggboss look myself, so I'll be looking to push him more towards the more traditional purple dankhold look with some personal touches, but I think you're spot on with Pallid Wych Flesh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just noticed that too, thankfully I have the book and will go by that until I see something official, dont trust the app most of the times anyway. Also...why would the boss hit worse then an underling? Didnt make sense. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gonna go by the battletome until they faq it if it was intentional. Also interesting, but not Troggoth related, the loonboss on cave squig has a double damage ability on the app, but not in the book. That one, at least, seems intentional. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fuzzwyr Posted January 18, 2019 Share Posted January 18, 2019 Provided I will only play an army of Troggoths, without any Goblins - Troggoth Hag is our lonely Wizard, right? So, there is now way to use spells of the Battletome? Only her own spell, permanent spells and spells form the realm the army comes from, right?

He has been that value since they put Gloomspite into the App. I did not get the book until tuesday and previously I was looking in the app. I was surprised when I noticed the difference in the book. I sure hope the book value is correct (my guess is that it is) because otherwise he has roughly the same combat output as the standard Dankhold Troggoth. He is quite a bit meaner when he hits on 3s.

I think this ability is now gone and they simply did not update the files used for the app correctly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a brilliant idea. Think I'll convert a troggoth to have a shaman on its shoulder and use that as the "Troggoth Hag."

Yep, thought so, too, after reading Your comment. Thanks for the input. And the Fungoid Shaman is the only little Greenling, wich look good in my eyes. 😏 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skabnoze Posted January 19, 2019 Share Posted January 19, 2019 If the Hag is on a 120mm base then I might convert one of my Mountain King models from Hordes into a massive Rockgut troll and then add one of my extra shaman models onto his shoulder. And maybe add a bunch of strange mushrooms growing out of his back as well. I like the Hag model and will pick one up, but I would like a huge troll from a non-fellwater type just for visual variety. I also don’t like duplicate models and I can see fielding 2 Hags now that all-troll armies are a real thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5kaven5lave Posted January 19, 2019 Share Posted January 19, 2019 (edited) IT’S TROGGOTH DAY!! EDIT: And to celebrate I rolled 2 6s to wound with my Rockguts for 11 damage total in my first combat.

SKUupin Posted January 19, 2019 Share Posted January 19, 2019 I haven't really gotten into AoS before, but I've been looking at the Troggoths since this battletome was announced. The current list I was looking at putting together is: Dankhold Troggboss (300)Mollog (170)Madcap Shaman (80)Fungoid Cave-Shaman (90)6 x Fellwater Troggoths (320)3 x Rockgut Troggoths (160)3 x Rockgut Troggoths (160)1 x Dankhold Troggoths (220) 20 x Shootas (130)20 x Stabbas (130)Troggherd (180) Malevolent Moon (50)Total: 1990 / 2000 When I thought that the Troggoth Hag was 360 points my list came to exactly 2000 points, but when Warscroll Builder was updated and I found out she was 380, I swapped her for 20 Stabbas, the endless spell, and the two Shamans (they are a Madcap and a Fungoid so that at least one of them can take a useful artefact, which I think is worth the 10 wasted points?) Does this list still feel Troggothy enough? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
