Yuviel Lightbringer Posted February 20, 2021 Share Posted February 20, 2021 its good that the new battletome is not mandatory, as the rules are also in BR: teclis. and I agree everything looked so good. I think the swordmasters will find a good home with my force. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LuminethMage Posted February 20, 2021 Share Posted February 20, 2021 (edited) And we found out that the Bladelords are indeed Vanari. And of course "very choppy". And the Sun Spirit for Tyrion will almost certainly be the Phoenix we now have seen so many times, again on the banner!

My personal favorite is the Calligrapher and the terrain piece. Maybe, so many good things. The new battletome art is also amazing. Everything is wonderful. I love my army 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiberius501 Posted February 20, 2021 Share Posted February 20, 2021 Umm yep I don’t think there’s a single one of those new models I didn’t like. Absolutely awesome! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howdyhedberg Posted February 20, 2021 Share Posted February 20, 2021 Did anyone get what they meant when they said don't worry to y'all that already have a battletome. Will they give us an updated with pdf? Or just buy the broken realms book? Quite nice with new stuff though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaladreon Posted February 20, 2021 Share Posted February 20, 2021 The old book + Broken Realms Teclis will = the new book. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiberius501 Posted February 20, 2021 Share Posted February 20, 2021 I can’t stop staring at the pics, they’re all so damn good! I have a bit of a chub, not gonna lie. I adore how old High Elf they are, but also have that Sigmar flare. Swords! That terrain piece! A crazy long bow ballista! All the characters! A standard barer! *fills pants* 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeremierty Posted February 20, 2021 Share Posted February 20, 2021 Woah... Such an amazing preview.... Everything is so damn cool ! Has anyone heard what they said about the rules of the scenery piece ? I could't quite hear but they said something about enhancing magic no ?? Also what do you think the rules will be for the wards around the ballista, -1 to hit from distance ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wyliekyote Posted February 20, 2021 Share Posted February 20, 2021 This. Is. AWESOME!!!! I am floored with how amazing the new models are. Jaw dropping cup filling blown away. And a Balista..... man I’m going to be so broke. Thank god for birthdays. (That is if they’ll be out by June) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aloth_Corfiser Posted February 20, 2021 Share Posted February 20, 2021 Holy Cow! A LOT to unpack. This needs a bit of time to sink in. The Video with the speech was a very nice touch Awesome all around, I really love the Vanari Bladelords these are completely wonderful. And not in my wildest dreams I would have foreseen a Terrain Piece. Love the Scinari Kalligraph too and he is a nice nod to Lotann. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OkayestDM Posted February 20, 2021 Share Posted February 20, 2021 I join my kindred in positively salivating over these releases! I never expected the terrain piece, and my gosh, it's perfect. I hope to get at least 2 of everything (possibly even the terrain.) I already plan to split my second copy of the twins into solo heroes, and I'm also wondering if the Bladelords can be kit-bashed with Stoneguard (sword and cape combo for the win!)

Tiberius501 Posted February 20, 2021 Share Posted February 20, 2021 I wonder what the Bladelords will do, compared to their hammer cousins. I know they aren’t part of a temple, but they’ll have to fill a different role. Less defense for sure, hopefully 2 wounds though for an elite unit, but possibly not. Wonder what their swords will do most of all though. Lots of attacks? High Rend? Different stances? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aelves don't feel like a race that should have an abundance of 2 wound infantry. These bladelords are Vanari, so at the very least wizards. a one wound wizard unit with decent weapons is a big enough draw, without stepping on the toes of the Stoneguard. I don't want our battletome to end up like stormcast where we have a bunch of different units that do basically the same thing. Alarith are a nice anvil, with 2 wounds and rend ignore. Bladelords being swift foot wizards would make a nice glass hammer unit which we lack outside of cavalry.

I would image they are 1 wound infantry, 4+ save. hitting on 3+/2+, wounding on 3+, rend -1 damage 1 but with 3-4 attacks each. and a bonus if they charge, almost the oposite of alarith who can take a hit, these guys are more a glass cannon.

Ragest Posted February 20, 2021 Share Posted February 20, 2021 (edited) Boxes or 5 mean 2 wounds. Nobody will play them if they are a unit with less wounds and half models than wardens unless they cost 60 Edited February 20, 2021 by Ragest 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Admittedly, they are 80 points but Stoneguard are 100 points, so maybe 80 points is possibe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
