Snakeb1te Posted March 4, 2020 Share Posted March 4, 2020 To be clear - any hero in the Knights of the Empty Throne list can perform the Unmatched Conqueror's command ability right? Not just Varanguard I hope. Also could someone post the Bloodmarked KotET list? I'm trying to make one myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The warband? Was that an odd mistype/autocorrect, or is it simply an acronym I don't know? Edited March 4, 2020 by Gistradagis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am referring to it. Now that the Empty Throne rules are part of the '5th' legion of our S2D tome, we can include the Bloodmarked Warband battalion. Combine that with a Bloodsecrator and/or the Doom-Sigil (though at the moment I would never use it due to it failing when there's a double turn) - Daemonforged Blades Varanguard could become quite potent. Pile in twice within 6" with grasping plate? Great! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
annarborhawk Posted March 4, 2020 Share Posted March 4, 2020 Mind you, I'm not trying to get greedy. I'm super-excited that Empty Throne is now a a damned legion. But if I read this right, Empty Throne Varanguard still do not get to chose a circle b/c that only applies to the other damned legion, correct?

PainfullyMediocre Posted March 5, 2020 Share Posted March 5, 2020 (edited) I had a think about that Khorne Fist of the Everchosen idea and i've come up with this.

Basic plan is to use the Varanguard to kill stuff, power up the next unit of Varanguard, etc until they can only buff the Knights. Two sources of rerolls to hit and wound from the Sorcerer and Warshrine. Its not a complex list, but could be fun. I'm not too sure about the Warlord trait or Sorcerer spell. I don't have much anti magic, so having the shield ability means I would get a bit of protection, but the charge rerolls seem like they'd be crucial to one one trick army like this.

annarborhawk Posted March 5, 2020 Share Posted March 5, 2020 (edited) ....love it. (Except you can only give your General the Command Trait) Maybe give the Sorcerer Mask of Darkness instead so you can teleport a reincarnated Varanguard to where you need it?

libr4rian Posted March 6, 2020 Share Posted March 6, 2020 (edited) I wanted to ask: is anyone using Mutalith Vortex Beast? On paper it looks very nice: it provides good debufs and heals itself. Edited March 6, 2020 by libr4rian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On paper it looks very nice: it provides good debufs and heals itself. I've found it to be slightly too random to be of real use. It has some good effects, but it's such a 50/50 deal, coupled with underwhelming attacks (if only you could give it a Khorne mark or smth...) and alright stats (12 wounds on 4+ with a base that large, it's easy to get surrounded and obliterated), that I usually don't recommend it. It's a whole bet of its own. Some games it might do a lot of wounds and mortal wounds, and resist long enough to be a threat. In other games, it'll be 170 wasted points. So, up to you. It's not inviable, but it's not a safe choice either. 15 minutes ago, Vesper said: Casual List I'm going to slowly build over the next few months or so: Lord on Karkadrak. -General -Dimensional Blade -Eternal Vendetta -Corn Sorcerer Lord on Manticore. -Tzeentch -Mask of Darkness -Bolstered By Hate Be'Lakor -Whispers of Darkness x15 Chaos Warriors -Corn on the cob x10 Chaos Knights -Popcorn x40 Marauders -Caramel Corn Mindstealer Kitty Cat Godsworn Champions of Ruin My only question is, with this, does my Lord on Karkakhornonthecob get to fight in every hero phase or just mine? What faction is that, though. Ravagers? Is it worth it with just two mortal heroes? I actually have a very similar list, but I run it in Despoilers and have no Mindstealer, 10 Warriors instead of 15, the Knights broken into two units of 5, and a Daemon Prince of Khorne as general. Making it an army from Ulgu, I'm planning on giving the Daemon Prince the Sword of Judgement and the Chaos Lord on Karkadrak the Dimensional Blade (Hexed Battle-axe with rend 3, used twice with the battalion? Yes plz). Edited March 6, 2020 by Gistradagis 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curious as to what to give a daemon prince from that list. You can give the trait to anyone, but if you make a DP your general, his aura goes from 12" to 18" and he gets a FNP of 5+. I personally like either Bolstered by Hate (making the DP 10 wounds on his 3+ save and the 5+ FNP), or Paragon of Ruin (D3 units at the beginning of the first round, before the first turn, get to move 5").
