RoyalDachshund Posted February 7, 2018 Share Posted February 7, 2018 Firey bearded lads - one question for you regarding SC Fyreslayers. The big drake came with 3 heroes, right? Each one of them can ride atop of it or be assembled as a unit on foot? There is enough parts to make Father on Magmadroth and Son and Smith on foot from this box (alongside of 10 Vulkites)? It's the very same kit as Magmadroth box on its own? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YES! its an amazing deal and with ZERO conversions to make it happen. I bought 3 starter boxes and for just a tad more per box than I would have payed for Vulkites anyways I now have 1 Father on Mag, 2 Father on Foot, 1 Son on Mag, 2 on foot, and 1 Smiter on Mag and 2 on foot. As far as HQs go this is one of the cheapest they have ever produced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoyalDachshund Posted February 7, 2018 Share Posted February 7, 2018 Wait, so there are 10 Vulkite bodies and 3 "hero" bodies? That is... well... way better then I've thought. Off to buy some SC's (and sell the Drakes) to get cheap Vulkites I go Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The other configs on magma will give you 1 of each. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carnelian Posted February 11, 2018 Share Posted February 11, 2018 Just asking out of curiosity but is there a "hard counter" list that fyreslayer players don't want to face? I can't really think of one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord-Of-Scotland Posted February 19, 2018 Share Posted February 19, 2018 Hey 90 vulkites will give anyone trouble, the trick will be to keep you magamadroth alive most of the army’s I have face have gone out there way to get rid of it. pesonaly I’m not a big fan of battalions and just expect the fact I’m going second. And take More units for them to fight though. with relics: ash plum sigil and the obsidian coronet would be the 2 I go for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zhorphorus Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 If I have 30 vulkites in a mixed order list, what's better to accompany them, a battlesmith or runesmiter? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It depends what you want to do with them and what other stuff you have in your mixed order list but in most cases a runesmiter I guess. To forward deploy them on to an objective.

Smitter if you want tunnel them and block some enemy units for a couple of turns easily (take care of the battleshock if they are away from any buff) Battlesmith if you want keep objectives or block part of the battlefield, take into consideration that the zone you want to control / block must be close to you starting area, We dont have too much move and probably you will spend movement rune on first or second turn. Once placed, 30 vulkites with battlesmith... (important to hide him)...really tanky I usually play both, i tunnel 30 vulkites with double axes and smitter to make some damage and make enemy spend two turns (min) caring about them, and play 30 - 60 vulkites (shields & picks) more with battlemisth on their backs, controlling what i want for the entire match (if i reach the zone first).

Parówczak Posted February 26, 2018 Share Posted February 26, 2018 hi, recently I got the opinion that the runesmith skill is not 1 drop but 2 drop. what's your opinion? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RAW it is one drop.

GrungnisBeard Posted February 27, 2018 Share Posted February 27, 2018 Hello all! I am looking to dust off my Fyreslayer army and was hoping someone could help me with a decent 1,000 pt list to start learning how to play them. I have some experience with AoS but it's been awhile since I've tried Fyreslayers. I'm not looking for anything super cheesy, just something fun and some what competitive. I appreciate any advice!
