angrycontra Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 I don't know what gw has said in its millions of faqs but I've been under the impression that negating wound through any way is not same as the wound having already been allocated to the model. I mean in Morathi's case (if that was intended) it would be the stupidest rule they've ever made period. "Oh look I managed to roll 3 lucky 6s, well I guess you can't do ****** against my gal this turn har har". If it does work like this, I'll bet my lifesavings it will be faqed later. In fact, if there ever was a character that might see rules changes/nerfs in the future, it's probably Morathi. Now I'm not screaming nerfs here (yet), she might be very expensive and so forth but I can see her being easily one of the more troublesome characters ever released in age of sigmar and not in the good way. We'll see. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chikout Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 Skarbrands total carnage will work against her. I am sure there will be other warscrolls in the future that will work in this way. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Praecautus Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 (edited) Mighty lord of khorne's axe has a chance to give her a shock with a potential visit to Mr Khorne, if he reaches her and gets the 5. If it does not work the lord will most likely be doomed.

She has a 2" and 3" on both her heavy hitting attacks so she can be behind a buffer of witch elves or sisters of slaughter and not get hit unless the enemy also has 2-3" range. The old scythe kurnoths and dyrad Play style haha just because we are and offensive themed army doesn't mean we can't go the defence 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry to disappoint, but you only get one roll if you've inflicted any damage not one for each wound inflicted I'm looking forward to the FAQ on Skarrbrand - which rule trumps the other 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Screwface Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 So help me out here, are they saying that only 3 damage can be allocated to her per turn, or are they talking about 3 wounds which could have multiple damage? Could Alarielle's beetle take her out in one go for example? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arkiham Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 3 damage. aside from skarbrand. he deals 8, max 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Screwface Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 Then why didn't they just say 3 damage? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arkiham Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 as you suffer 3 wounds. wounds is the profile name, damage is what you do to her. she can suffer a max of 3 wounds a turn. meaning, you can deal a max of 3 wounds to her aside from special things Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Screwface Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 (edited) So when I attack with my unit I don't cause wounds to her? Even though it says that I wound her with, say, my Blightkings on a 3? Edit: not trying to be argumentative, just seems wounds are both passive and active to me, you can do them and take them. Edit again: so maybe the use of the word allocate is what I should focus on as you allocate attacks and damage, but not wounds per se. Still wish wounds didn't apply to 2 separate things on warscrolls. Edited February 22, 2018 by Screwface Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still wish wounds didn't apply to 2 separate things on warscrolls. You target a unit with attacks. The unit makes armor saves if the hit and wound rolls are both successful. Then damage is dealt. Then wounds are allocated to a single model. That model can then use any abilities it possesses that trigger upon a wound being allocated to it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charles Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 They would do it if they want to preserve this new rule. I agree he is not OP and Khorne is not an army that needs any nerfing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mordeus Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 We'll have to see how it plays out in game. Also it seemed to me they implied that the wounds she lost as an aelf where transferred to her snake form. This seems quite strong though. Sending your strongest unit on her is pretty useless as their power output is made redundant. I'm curious though its definitely a new way of seeing hero resistance from the game.
