Perturbato Posted June 11, 2021 Share Posted June 11, 2021 Well the article about the faction are not very usefull arn't they ? I learned nothing from the Slave to darkness and they even told that daemonic power was to increase save and that is a mistake (except it is changed as it could in an version change :p) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm still holding out for BOC to get a massive update this Edition, its literally called the Era of the Beasts, there are only 2 Factions with beasts in their name and they are Beasts of Chaos and Beastclaw Raiders. If they arent updated and we get more Aelves I'll just not understand.* * I've no problem with Aelves and definitely no problem at all with their players, I just want beasties!!

I'd assume all the coming faction focus articles will be mostly "this model good, because of +1 save command!" well... my hopes for these "deep dives" are low at best. It will be amazing to see how they address the bonereapers though who can not benefit from any of the new commands, will it just be an empty sheet of paper? who knows! 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These sort of Warhammer Community deep dives are never really that...well deep. You will get better more objective information from other players who post on site like this. I still enjoy them though for what its worth. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like them for their awesome galleries, but the strategies listed are typically along the lines of Cavalry are fast and with this new command ability they are even faster. Add endless spells to make your wizard more deadly. Grots may not seem strong but become a lot more powerful when fighting in large hordes. Fun stuff that is great for beginners trying to decide an army and get a hang of the rules... just hard to swallow for those of us jonesing for some new edition info.

My bad XD. We already pointed Painbringers and Twinsould being powerful with all out attack and defense long ago in the HoS thread. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They talk about the 2inch reach of the Symbaresh being useful because more of them can attack. If we were getting the 40k rules, I’m not sure it would matter. probably reading too much into it.

Heal d3 wounds or revive d3 wounds worth of models from each unit. If you picked the same unit 3 times, roll 3d3 for that unit and heal or restore models Praetors: 3 wounds, 5" move, 3+ save 3 attacks, 3+/3+/-1/2 When a nearby stormcast hero takes a wound roll a dice. On a 2-4 the Praetors take the wound instead. On a 5+ the wound is ignored. Krule Boyz: Hide contents Manskewer Boltboyz: 5" move, 2 wounds, 6+ save Aimed Shot: 24" 1 attack, 3+/3+/-1/2 Hasty Shot: 12" 2 attacks, 4+/3+/-1/2 Can only use Aimed Shot if you didn't move and there are no enemies within 3" Gutrippaz: 5" move, 2 wounds, 5+ save 2 attacks, 4+/4+/0/1 At the start of the charge phase if this unit is >3" from an enemy unit, pick an enemy unit within 12" that isnt a HERO or MONSTER. Roll 2d6 and add 1 to the roll for every model in this unit. If the result is higher than the enemy units bravery, subtract one from hit rolls when that enemy unit fights this unit until the end of the turn. Murknob with Belch-banna: 6 wounds, 4+ save 3 attacks, 3+/3+/-1/2 KRULEBOYZ wholly within 12" ignore spells on a 5+ At the start of the combat phase roll a dice of each enemy unit within 3". On a 2-5, they suffer 1 mortal wound. On a 6 they suffer d3 mortal wounds. Sludgeraker (Krule Boyz Dragon): 16w with 2+ saves. Ward save 6+ 5 attacks at 3+/3+/-3/D4 (damage 4?) Is a huge crocodilian that's more of a force of nature than a unit. +1 to wound rolls if it charged. It's also about 150 points less than it ought to be. What's the catch? After the first time it fights it MUST charge the nearest enemy if able for the rest of the game, although a Breaka-boss can check it for a command point. Skyrippa (Krule Boyz Bat-Like monster with Killaboss rider): 8w with 3+ saves, move 16", DS and -1 to be hit Is a giant bat w/ a scorpion tail rode by a killaboss. Can deep strike. -1 to be hit. If this is true......it gonna be more umbalanced than the old box of ghost(where stormcast were so much stronger than ghosts). New orcs seems veeeeeery strongth but stormcast are.........USSELESS. Really every unit is as 40%overcosted,basic unit does a 50% damage from elite units that costs 120 but cost 140????? Even 100 would be expensive. In short does the same damage than lumineths hammerers that cost 100 but these cost 140 and people didnt played hammerers because they were bad The winged hero is a joke,6 damage median for 300??????? Have stats of 200 or less. The banner hero,125 points to only bring 3d3 wounds back? So im spending 125 points to revive 6 wounds? For that cost i could bring since the start a unit extra for less points,100% useless hero The new mage is expensiver than actual mage and is worse,i prefer autocancel one spell every day before the small bubble anti endless spells The bulku boys have stats of 140\150 units but cost 180 The bodyguards,similar units as seraphons do the same for 100 and not 155 points,but can have a use to avoid snipe heroes If this is true all in this box gonna be umplayable for stormcast,they arent bad,they are 100% useless and overcosted by 40%. How is posible the winged hero cost 300 and the ork hero cost 200 when have similar stats Edited June 11, 2021 by Doko 2 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SorryLizard Posted June 11, 2021 Share Posted June 11, 2021 On the plus side, if my Sotrmcast suck right out of the gate it makes it easy to play games with anyone and not feel bad about bringing an optimised list. Means I get to have the enjoyment of tweaking and planning and optimising whilst not also making my opponent have a bad time at the table.

Only if you look for dmg output. She is in Look Out Sir range, rocks a 3+ saves, and 4+ ward... I mean, that's a lot without CPs or Heroic Actions in consideration. And 12 move with fly!! Throw her to any 500-600 points monster and She will gain her points back by removing a monster for maybe 3 or more turns. Btw, as @Hellberg said, expect a points rise for all other armies too Edited June 11, 2021 by Beliman 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grumble grumble, Myrmidons and Kragnos being Beasts but not Beasts of Chaos. I still want the rules for chaos to change into the 1/4 CoS style. I want an undivided general to be able to take allies from an undivided army so in this case BoC and S2D. I want a marked general to take armies from a shared mark... So a Tzangor Shaman can have 1/4 DoT units or marked S2D. I think it would give more people reasons to run Beasts of Chaos and Slaves to Darkness instead of just redundantly stuffing them into a god specific factions. It also gives them access to certain tools without taking away from the unique identity of the God Specific factions. Skaven work really well as an independent faction with only Pestilence and Nurgle tying them to the broader alliances. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
