No, he is far bigger. Ogres come on 40mm bases. He comes on a 60mm base. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grentain Posted June 2, 2017 Share Posted June 2, 2017 I feel like K'Daai Fireborn are probably too low at 7 points. If I understand it correctly, Skirmish works with models acting as independent agents, which would cause the Fireborn's blazing body (or whatever the rule is called) to kill literally everything within 3" of it at the end of each combat.

Yes, because of rule changes between AoS and Skirmish some models will have that kind of impact on the game. Most models that can target multiple units will have devastating power. And models that used to hit multiple models in one unit will have their abilities weaken. This in no way balanced in this point system. My only advice is to maybe talk with your group how they see that problem fixed. Personally I would probably limit from all units in 3" to one unit/model in 3". Or maybe even get rid of the rule.

A chunk of that is to do with his armour though. I think its the Behemoth keyword on the warscroll that precludes it. after all, the demon prince is a plastic kit, and in RAW plastic kits are all you get.

But there are plastic kits that have been left out. No Dracoth lord for example, despite all 4 Dracoth riders, the chocobo lord, and chocobo riders being there. No Chaos Sorcerer Lord. No Ogroid, and hes a brand new plastic model. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a new player I bought two Start Collecting boxes of them and can't use the Warboss that comes with it. I'm assuming my friends and local shop will use some of these house rule points, but I have plastic models in a start collecting box that are overlooked and invalidate an entire faction.I've always felt like house rules were cheating the spirit of the game (in other games), but I'm learning that GW makes the toys and the money and the community makes the rules.

Nin Win Posted June 3, 2017 Share Posted June 3, 2017 Played another game with the salamander. Took a few axes to the face and died. Yeah, it can sniper heroes, but it's very vulnerable to infantry. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk There are a few odd occurrences of things missing in the official renown lists. The Chaos Sorcerer Lord and Orruk Warboss definitely top candidates without any clear reason. I believe the reason why the Ogroid Thurmatauge, the Dracoth Lord and possibly even the Daemon Prince are missing is because they end up being more than 30 renown. If you notice, there is nothing in the game that costs more than 28 renown. So I believe these models weren't included on that basis (I think the Tzeentch Herald on Chariot also falls into this category).

Stylus Posted June 6, 2017 Share Posted June 6, 2017 I love this idea - these pages look great! At a glance, I've spotted one hero missing from the Tzeentch Arcanites: The Curseling (I only noticed because I'm currently painting one).

Baardah Posted June 6, 2017 Share Posted June 6, 2017 I Wonder if there is a good way to work out points for Some of the DogS of war units.

WarbossKurgan Posted June 6, 2017 Share Posted June 6, 2017 My group will be using these Renown tables for all our games as most of us wanted things that are not in the official list! We will be starring at 35 Renown as well, mainly to make an Orruk Greenskinz warband feasable! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In honesty, you're better off just substituting existing warscrolls for the regiments (As most regiments were just fancier versions of things that already existed). e.g Mengils Manflayers could be Dark Elf Shades. A long time ago I did translate a bunch of Dogs of War/Regiments of Renown into Age of Sigmar Warscrolls if you're interested (But this was pre Grand Alliance/Generals Handbook, so things would definitely be different now). https://docs.google.com/document/d/1bezb_Tus-qENihNpked3Q4W0FGEiAliVeaxBmt7OBzA/edit?usp=sharing 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mickeja Posted June 9, 2017 Share Posted June 9, 2017 I think this is great and looks pro. As a Bretonnia player I think you should consider lowering Men-at-arms to 1 renown each since they are weaker than many other units at the same cost such as ex. Orruks. Im gonna try Bretonnia for the first time in Skirmish tomorrow and see how it works! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In Age of Sigmar the Fimir Noble is just a leader of Fimir Warriors unit. And in Age of Sigmar Skirmish you can upgrade one model from each warscroll to a unit leader for free. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thankee Posted June 11, 2017 Share Posted June 11, 2017 I used this in a few games now and it felt pretty balanced! I wonder though regarding the flagellants war scroll. If one of my flags die (which they do easy). Should I get to 4+ roll to kill a close enemy unit in skirmish? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D Wils Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 Thanks for adding Dwarf Slayers and Miners. Also missing Dwarf Engineer (different from the cog smith) and Dragon Slayer (different from the unforged) heroes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
