I also suspect we'll see a list of prayers for the Huskard, beyond just the two on his scroll.

We've already seen the one that brings yeti's back

[Fabint]

Any chance we have full pot rules floating around?

Two community articles have shown the +1 to casting within 1” and “empty” the pot to heal d3 to all units within 36”.  Unlikely that there’s more but maybe.

[Black_Nexus]

Someone will do a full reveal of the book tomorrow almost certainly.

[Reuben Parker]

The hunter command ability didn’t seem to be limited, so ambushing cats stacking a bunch of attacks even striking first with the correct sub faction command ability maybe a useful foil against none super units. As I have 20 cats I always want them to be good   

TT seem fairly terrible unless there’s a trait that adds to the ice roll but I’ve always been a stone horn person myself. Still hoping all the monsters have had around 100 points lopped off. 

 

Stonehorn 5+ shrug exactly what I guessed GW would do and overall probably better than the old warscroll.

Also Bullgors somehow still hit on a 4+ yet the party beer bellies hit on 3+.....😜

[swarmofseals]

I wish they had changed more of the abilities. The ones they did change seem generally good to me but abilities like "Down to the Ironguts" are a bit of a waste of space IMO.

[Mutton]

A lot of these scrolls needed actual overhauls---reinterpretations if you will. Instead they copied nearly everything from AoS alpha version and tidied up the text a bit. So many of these units could have been cool if given some extended thought. After years of waiting, the disappointment is real hard to swallow.

Even if the point costs are generous, I feel a big opportunity was wasted in the rewrites of these warscrolls.

[Malakithe]

Im surprised by the lack of rend on pretty much everything except the stonehorn. Giant weapons the size of normal people dont warrant more rend? Or any?

[KriticalKhan]

Anyone have experience converting bulls into other units? Assuming I'm lucky enough to get a preorder for Feast of Bones in (rip to the aussies, gone in 1 hour), I'd like to turn a few of the infantry guys into butchers. What can I do to make them stand out? Have any of you done something similar?

I found this bad boy on /tg/, but I don't feel like hunting down the 40k guy needed for it, I'd like to try to keep the conversions to just using parts from the bull kit+greenstuff.

I've been trying variations of this URL but no luck as yet:

If you want to have a few guesses, just try changing the Warscroll name towards the end of the URL there

Might not have been uploaded yet though!

Try this! GW actually misspelled Mournfang in the URL...

Holy hell they didnt change the Gargant Hacker profile.... Looks like clubs and iron fist (the opposite of how mine are built...) are definitely the better option.

[WindstormSCR]

The preorders are up in NZ, can use the direct links. mawpot is still 404 and the scraplauncher has a display error. Ironblaster looks like it might be viable?

God I hope the person buying my copy of feast of bones is on the ball. Seeing Australia selling out in an hour has me mighty spooked

[Soolong]

Mournfang are units of 4 now. I know the changes do not look that great but i am holding out on our points dropping a lot. I have a large collection and it sucks having to leave so much on the shelf.

Tyrant seems nice, still a rubbish command ability mind you. Also given that this set is 380 new Zealand how much do we reckon it will be pounds? My guess is seeing as the poor kiwis and aussies often get shafted on price it will be £140, seems to be the new standard they want for these sets.

 

Rubbish? Horde of fearless gnoblars would like to disagree.

Or 12 ogors for that matter. 48 -D3 wounds on a 5+ save can block a huge amount of space 

[Pitloze]

Mournfang look great to me. +1 bravery means you need to lose 2 before you are in trouble. The tusks doing more dmg on the charge is huge because if they come in 4 you have 16 attacks doing -1 2dmg and we have already seen there are ways to boost the tusks even more. AND they also do the mortal wounds on the charge.

I think Mournfangs are actually about the Mournfangs now. The Ogors on top are just extras.

Edit:  If you get your positioning right and (hopefully), get your huskard on stonehorn in with the pack, get run & charge from Jorlbad to actually make that happen. You can have 3 DMG tusks.. Holy ******.

Yeah I’m really happy about how they look as well. Now that extra SC seems to make sense. So far I’ve been holding off on them as my current mournfang don’t see playtime at all. 
Will go for the normal hackers this time though. 

[Pitloze]

I have all my Mournfang riders with the hackers and I'm okay with it. The Mournfang itself  also hit on 4+. So the +1 to hit buff from the slaughter master is huge on them.

[Dejnar]

When do you guys expect pre orders to be available in Europe? 

[Nubl0]

Just done my pre order, I must say I’m super surprised at the price. £115 is damn good value really.

[Malakithe]

As usual NA preorders will be at 10am PST so gots ta wait

Remember that all this warscrolls now have new "free" rules, artifacts, spells, prayers, mawtribes, batallions, etc... and most of them are already a bit buffed. Still, I'm with you that everyone want fancy abilities and combos on their warscrolls, but IMO, we need the book to understand how "awesome" they are.
