I like your colors for the different stone on the Loonshrine.  👍

[Hannibal]

Loonshrine looks great!

 

And I´d love to see some step by step progress of that Troggoth Boss there. It´s a great start!

Hello, I've just seen your list full of Rockgut Troggoths, so maybe you can answer about their ability, TROWHIN' BOULDERS. 

Do they roll 1 dice for each model to determine the damage or just one dice for every unit? 

Thankssss

Hi there, it's one dice to roll, trying to get under the amount of minis in that unit. So as long as that unit of 6 are all there that's an auto hit where the others will be one dice rolled trying to get under 3 

 

Hope that helps 👍🏻

Thanks, I thought that you had to calculate the number of enemy models in the enemy unit you aimed to.

Yeah it's one that I think a lot of us at to read a couple of times but once you got it it's there. The warscroll quotes roll a dice equal to or less than the number of models in THIS unit, meaning the ones that are throwing the rocks.

 

It's like testing their accuracy, the more models in a unit the easier it is to hit something.  In a unit of 6 up to 3 of them will definitely hit but when there are less of them it's harder for them to hit so the roll gets harder. 

I'm also thinking of using Mollog instead of a Gargant as I've heard good things, going to get a game in soon to test them out

Thanks for the clarification. 

 

It would be to good what I have thought for this unit. One dice for each model with D3 damage each against numerous units.  It's not a DEATH or ORDER unit so it would not have been so strong. (I said that to don't polemicize with GW  😁 that seems to have forgotten that there is even Destruction Allegiance). 

[IneptusAstartes]

Is that a Bleeding Tooth fungus troggboss?

[Gdead909]

I am picking up mollog soon to try him out. The simple fact that his weapon is like a starsoul mace is amazing. 

 

Also dont forget to build up wounds before sacrificing his squig buddies

He's better than the Gargant because of his consistency and utility, both of which the gargant is famous for not having. It's also important not to forget that Mollog is a hero, so he gets Lookout Sir! and can be used for Inspiring Presence/RR charge etc.

Aye, considering the prevalence of ethereal amulet atm the fact he consistently does mortal wounds is really nice.

Are there any ways of boosting the number of attacks Mollog can make with his Fungus Club?

It's a melee weapon so anything that would normally increase his attacks will. Sadly for troggs that's basically gordrakk.
