NauticalSoup Posted February 13, 2023 Share Posted February 13, 2023 Lame Would be nice if they'd make a new plastic kit for the thing since for a long time it's been a feature across multiple allegiances 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bonzai Posted February 15, 2023 Share Posted February 15, 2023 https://www.warhammer-community.com/2023/02/15/regiments-of-renown-let-your-warhammer-age-of-sigmar-army-hire-mercenaries-with-powerful-abilities/ I like that we finally have a way to ally in bolt boys without losing our allegiance abilities. Looking at the box, it looks like two units of bolt boys and a beast skewer kiIl bow. I imagine that thier rules let them keep thier venom encrusted weapons rule, and makes the kill bow a hero. Heck, if they make the kill bow worth while I may consider taking them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NauticalSoup Posted February 16, 2023 Share Posted February 16, 2023 Yeah the fact that it notes their venom in the description means these mercenary bands must be bringing their own mini-battle trait bonuses. Which makes sense because otherwise they'd be about as useless as regular allies lol Very curious to see how they all look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bonzai Posted February 26, 2023 Share Posted February 26, 2023 (edited) Well, I am still bummed about the Rogue Idol being discontinued and that it inevitably will squated sooner than latter, but that hasn't happened yet. So I figured I would give him his last victory lap, and build my first list for the new hand book (which hasn't been locally in stock at all for me to actually get yet). - Army Faction: Orruk Warclans - Army Type: Bonesplitterz - Subfaction: Drakkfoot - Grand Strategy: Waaagh! - Triumph: Bloodthirsty LEADERS Wurrgog Prophet (170)* - General - Command Traits: Master of Magic - Artefacts of Power: Glowin’ Tattooz - Spells: Squiggly Curse Wardokk (80)* - Spells: Power of the Were-boar Wurrgog Prophet (170)* - Artefacts of Power: Gryph-feather Charm - Spells: Gorkamorka’s War Cry - Aspects of the Champion: Tunnel Master BATTLELINE Savage Orruks (160)* - Bone Totem Bearer - Skull Thumper - Savage Boss - Chompa Savage Orruk Morboys (160)** Savage Orruk Morboys (160)** BEHEMOTH Rogue Idol (430) OTHER Savage Boarboy Maniaks (300) Savage Boarboy Maniaks (300) ENDLESS SPELLS & INVOCATIONS 1 x Emerald Lifeswarm (60) CORE BATTALIONS *Warlord **Galletian Veterans TOTAL POINTS: 1990/2000 Created with Warhammer Age of Sigmar: The App I took Warlord for the extra artifact. Gryph Feather Charm let's me run two survivable Wurrgogs and Tunnel Master let's my non-general go head hunting or objective grabbing. The rest of the list is my basic bread and butter. Rogue Idol gets buff and healing support while buffing my casters. Only questionable pick is squiggly curse, but I haven't played around with it in a long time. I figure an Arcane Bolt and Squiggly curse to the face gives me a decent shot at taking down a hero. That's about it. If you guys have any tweaks or suggestions let me know.

bonzai Posted May 10, 2023 Share Posted May 10, 2023 Rest in piece Rogue Idol. You will be missed! GW finally pulled the trigger and squatted forge world. I knew this was coming, but it still stings. Oh well... back to the drawing board. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gitzdee Posted May 10, 2023 Share Posted May 10, 2023 Hope we get a nice replacement with the upcoming campaign. At least Ironjawz got a huge boar. Hope we get something nice too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope we get something nice too. I won't hold my breath. We are getting 12 models, 4 are heralds, and the first additional one we are getting is the Boar. That means we are probably getting one more destruction model. With Warclans and Gitz now represented, it is probably going to be Ogors... unless they release a unit of creepers for SoB.

bonzai Posted July 1, 2023 Share Posted July 1, 2023 (edited) Well, I saw the leaks for the new GHB. Barring any points changes, this is what I am thinking of running. - Army Faction: Orruk Warclans - Army Type: Bonesplitterz - Subfaction: Drakkfoot - Grand Strategy: Waaagh! - Triumph: Bloodthirsty LEADERS Wardokk (80)* - Spells: Hoarfrost Wurrgog Prophet (170)** - General - Command Traits: Master of Magic - Artefacts of Power: Glowin’ Tattooz - Spells: Rupture - Bonding: Krondspine Incarnate of Ghur Wardokk (80)** - Spells: Gorkamorka’s War Cry Wardokk (80)** - Spells: Glowy Green Tusks BATTLELINE Savage Orruk Morboys (160)* Savage Orruk Morboys (160)* Savage Orruks (160)* - Chompa BEHEMOTH Krondspine Incarnate of Ghur (480)* OTHER Savage Boarboy Maniaks (300)* Savage Boarboy Maniaks (300)* ENDLESS SPELLS & INVOCATIONS 1 x The Burning Head (30) CORE BATTALIONS *Battle Regiment **Andtorian Acolytes TOTAL POINTS: 2000/2000 The idea is that the primal magic dice will boost the Wurrgog's casting, making a casting roll of 10 much easier for fist of gork, and rupture let's me feed the Incarnate without having to sacrifice my general. My general will have a potential +2 to cast thanks to the Incarnate and possibly a Wardokk dance. Hoarfrost and glowing green tusks help pump rend, which in turn synergizes with the Drakkfoot's ability, with a potential-5 rend pigs. On the flip side, anti magic is going to be boosted as well, and I am not sure if we can hang as a caster army. We will see. Anyways, this is the best that I came up with once I saw the leaks. Then again, I might be back to the drawing board if the points change. Edited July 6, 2023 by bonzai Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ganigumo Posted July 7, 2023 Share Posted July 7, 2023 While bonesplitterz didn't get any direct love I think theres a lot the season has to offer us, and some buffs that might sneak under the radar. Maniak Wierdnob with Fast 'un is probably the best possible range available on merciless blizzard. 24", or 32" with great hunter and tireless trackers on t1. Our units love hoarfrost, plenty of stuff hitting on 4s with no rend We can actually do the new kruleboyz battle tactic by bringing the regiment of renown Wurgogg prophet dodged his enhanced spell being changed to unmodified rolls of 10+ so we can use primal dice to get the better version Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either that, or there are so few of us left that they decided not to bother. I wouldn't put it past them to change it on the next battle scroll. It's a shame that we can't stack glowing green tusks and Hoarfrost. -5 rend pigs could have been fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bonzai Posted September 15, 2023 Share Posted September 15, 2023 Well... my list got invalidated today thanks to the battlescroll update. So I said ****** it, and decided to go with a fun list. - Army Faction: Orruk Warclans - Army Type: Bonesplitterz - Subfaction: Drakkfoot - Grand Strategy: Waaagh! - Triumph: Inspired LEADERS Wurrgog Prophet (170)* - General - Command Traits: Master of Magic - Spells: Gorkamorka’s War Cry Wardokk (80)* - Spells: Glowy Green Tusks Wardokk (80)* - Spells: Hoarfrost Wardokk (80)** - Spells: Merciless Blizzard Bundo Whalebiter (440)** BATTLELINE Savage Orruk Morboys (160)** Savage Orruk Morboys (160)** Savage Orruks (160)** - Bone Totem Bearer - Skull Thumper - Savage Stikka OTHER Savage Boarboy Maniaks (300)** Savage Boarboy Maniaks (300)** ENDLESS SPELLS & INVOCATIONS 1 x Emerald Lifeswarm (60) CORE BATTALIONS *Andtorian Acolytes **Battle Regiment TOTAL POINTS: 1990/2000 Created with Warhammer Age of Sigmar: The App Bundo replaces the Incarnate, and is the new big distraction piece. He offers some tactical options with his objective kicking, and the life swarm will help keep him topped off. Took the Acolytes battalion for extra primal dice, Hoarfrost and glowing tusks buff units, Blizzard Wardokk and Wurrgog nuke things. I don't expect it to do particularly great, but it should be fun and take advantage of the new GHB stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bonzai Posted September 21, 2023 Share Posted September 21, 2023 I had second thoughts about going the Gargant route. So I came up with a new list. - Army Faction: Orruk Warclans - Army Type: Bonesplitterz - Subfaction: Drakkfoot - Grand Strategy: Waaagh! - Triumph: Inspired LEADERS Wurrgog Prophet (170)* - General - Command Traits: Master of Magic - Spells: Gorkamorka’s War Cry Wardokk (80)* - Spells: Hoarfrost Wurrgog Prophet (170)* - Spells: Power of the Were-boar Wardokk (80)** - Spells: Merciless Blizzard Wardokk (80)** - Spells: Glowy Green Tusks BATTLELINE Savage Orruk Morboys (160)** Savage Orruk Morboys (160)** Savage Orruks (160)** - Bone Totem Bearer - Skull Thumper - Savage Stikka OTHER Savage Boarboy Maniaks (300) Savage Boarboy Maniaks (300)** Savage Boarboy Maniaks (300)** ENDLESS SPELLS & INVOCATIONS 1 x Prismatic Palisade (40) CORE BATTALIONS *Andtorian Acolytes **Battle Regiment TOTAL POINTS: 2000/2000 Created with Warhammer Age of Sigmar: The App I leaned in harder on the casting. Double Wurrgog and a Blizzard should pick things up. Casting up to 7 Spells a turn with potential extra Primal Dice. I keep the pigs in big units to maximize the impact of buff spells, though it may pay to break one up, to focus on objectives. I think shooting is going to be a big deal in the coming months with cities out, and the double tapping KO army of renown incoming. So I am going to experiment with the palisade. Being able to potentially turn off shooting and unleash hell could be handy. I just wish that I had 20 more points to play with. I would upgrade a Wardokk to wierdnob to help keep up with the maniacs. What do you guys think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DestructionFranz Posted October 12, 2023 Share Posted October 12, 2023 Old question but still relevant question. Can I double move the same unit with Tireless Trackers? Someone say yes someone say no. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NauticalSoup Posted October 12, 2023 Share Posted October 12, 2023 How would you move the same unit twice. It says 'half the units in your army', you can't... say one unit more than once when computing a fractional. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
