If only one model needs to be outside 9 from the enemy, but within 8 of karanak you should be ok (when you factor in his base) even if he is in base to base with the enemy. Unless he has been surrounded. Yes, changed the wording. A screenshot that was on another thread here (screenshot of youtube video): Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If realm armies and the new spells become a thing, I'll probably use the lens from Hysh (negating Mortal Wounds from spell in 6") as 3rd item. I'm still unsure what the best units for MSU are, but this will probably take some testing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(P.15 new core rules, Battalion Organization) Odd that the Warscroll says 10, and the GHB 2017 says 5 .... https://www.games-workshop.com/resources/PDF/AoS_Warscrolls/aos-warscroll-chaos-warriors-en.pdf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Killax Posted June 16, 2018 Share Posted June 16, 2018 Typically Id also say that using more as 1 Battalion will be hard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(GHB takes precedence in this case) So they are legit and a fine MSU unit on paper. To be honest, I'm not really sure what to take, there seem to be two ways of doing this. Either you spam Reavers and/or Marauders and end up with about 100 models of light infantry (sadly, the min unit size was bumped to 20 for the latter). Or you are mixing in some heavier units. Knights are fast, reasonable reliable and better on the charge than Crushers (at least in a vacuum). Chariots might be an option instead of Warriors, they are rather cheap and can keep up with knights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so, you only need the regular edition, but the warlord edition comes with extra goodies that are very helpful during games. I got the 2017 warlord edition, and use the dials and counters every game. Otherwise, you probably mean the Core Rule Book and the General's Handbook, in which case both are helpful, but GHB is probably the only one needed.

To be honest, it doesn't seem to be worth it and just a cheap cash grab from GW. Get the GHB and use the interweb for the relevant Core Book pages.

Retro Posted June 17, 2018 Share Posted June 17, 2018 So time to dig up some old questions about goretide battalion. I remember it being a pretty heated debate back when BoK first dropped as to a few points but I can't remember if it was ever resolved or FAQd because ghb17 killed the battalion. 1. Can I get a single drop army that has "any number of additional khorne bloodbound" units in it? 2. Can my MLoK pile in 8" when he isn't in combat? ie charge 8" in the hero phase. 3. Do all the mortal battalions count as khorne bloodhound battalions or was that some kind reference to old book battalions? I'm sure there was more in the debate but can't recall. I think it would be good to clear this up because the point drops make the gore tide (slightly) more viable again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it would be good to clear this up because the point drops make the gore tide (slightly) more viable again Yeah, we can start arguing again. 1. and 3. never got clarified, at least not in the official FAQ. Concerning 2. I found this. Quote Page 122 – The Goretide, Aqshy’s Bane Change the rules text to: ‘In each of your hero phases, if the Goretide’s Mighty Lord of Khorne is within 8” of any enemy models he can pile in up to 8” and attack. If he does so, you can reroll all failed hit rolls for the Goretide’s Mighty Lord of Khorne, including any attacks made with the Blood-dark Claws of his ferocious Flesh Hound.’ Which will be debated as well. To be honest, the biggest power of the Goretide is not the boost to Mortal Khorne but the inevitable force of bad rules writing, forcing everyone to argue about it.

misthv Posted June 17, 2018 Share Posted June 17, 2018 Not sure what to make about all leaked changes to Khorne. May be too early to call, but I think we miss out on a lot of goodies. Also, with our book out so early in cycle I really see risk of BoK just not being as fun to play with anymore. I found our allegiance abilities weak from the beginning, and now, even though I like take on summoning in AoS2, I don’t like the idea of essentially choosing between our allegiance abilities or summoning. To make my list(s) more fun, I try to find stuff to ally in but have hard time landing a well-rounded-ish all comers/all phases list which I like to run. Is it confirmed it’s still 400p allies? Gaunt summoner looks sweet, but at 180pts... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also with a baleful gate (do you have to pay points to put these down?) around he'll be able to bring on 10 pink horrors for more magic/unbinding and shooting and potential MWs when they die. Could see Bloodletters running 12+D6 and then making a 7+2D6 rerollable charge with cogs, the right artifacts, and command traits... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was 60 points over 2k since the bloodsecrator went up, so will have to make a shift, but I think the lists are very strong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, but it's unlikely that they will purge faction specific FAQs and why would they? This will only happen if they rework a tremendous amount of Warscrolls just for AoS2.0 and then most of the FAQ content would just be integrated into them. The rule/clarification in question, will stay 100% either way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NemoVonUtopia Posted June 18, 2018 Share Posted June 18, 2018 I currently don't have any khorne daemon models but am thinking about getting some to take advantage of the new summoning rules. However, I currently don't run lists that focus on generating bloodtithes and in my last few games the current rewards have been vital for my success. So outside of trying out specific summoning lists or large multiplayer games where lots of things die I'm having difficulty thinking when it would be better to summon instead of the regular rewards.

Area control. Make it impossible for your opponent to reach a certain point on the table in this round because he has to fight the unit or you summon them on top of an unguarded objective.

The part, that only wizards can dispel active endless spells still bothers me. If wizards will become mandatory in the upcoming meta, this will be the reason. I still stand by my summoning list and will definitely try it, just to annoy my gaming group into oblivion.

Damn so solely Khorne armies are completely at the mercy of endless spells? I had not realised that, I’d been planing on my dog collar to protect me! I may also be late to the party on this but I saw Martin & Ben on Warhammer TV state that we can’t summon named Deamons. I was gutted when I heard this because I have just spent 3 months paintings Skarrbrand and was looking forward to summoning him to the field.
