  1. Is there anything in this new book that would compliment a build made around Archaon?
  2. No. It cannot happen. The gods are fickle and jealous. A champion who obtained the mark of a god and then chose to pursue another one would end up as a walking ****** within seconds. This is why Archaons achievement is so massive. By sheer force of will he managed to obtain 4 marks. He is a big deal for a reason. The Varanguard example proves this. Individually they are all chaos Lords, with all the personal attachments that comes with. Archaon can over ride that though. He basically let's them worship as they see fit but when they turn up for a shift at work they do what he tells them. If that means putting a shift in with the Slaanesh badge on then so be it.
  3. I'd say there is a zero percent chance of a new slaves to darkness battletome within the next three years, minimum.
  4. I recall there being some discussion around whether Host of the Everchosen lists were allowed access to realm artefacts. Has there ever been a firm ruling on this subject?
  5. Must Haves: Feculant Gnarlmaw at least x1 Start Collecting Daemons of Nurgle at least x1 You will always get a use out of those two boxes no matter what direction you take. The Gnarlmaw has uses no matter what and the Daemons box is a great launchpoint for a daemon centred army or provides you with a summoning tool box for a mortal/Rotbringer based force. After that I'd really consider pursuing a daemon/rotbringer/mortal build. There's certain must buy units for each of those army types that don't play well if they are mismatched. For example a Harbinger of Decay is a must have in a mortal/Rotbringer list but has zero use in a daemon list. Do you currently have a preference?
  6. It isn't a legal Plaguetouched Warband. You need 1 Slaves to Darkness Nurgle hero and then 7 Mortal Slaves to Darkness units. That list is currently at 1 and 3. You have also selected the Blessed Sons sub faction. I assume that's a mistake? The plan with the GUO is a waste of points in my opinion. GUO are extremely underwhelming in combat without support and kitting him out with the bell (support piece) but using him as a solo blocker is contradictory. If you want a singular unit to put out some damage I would highly recommend a Lord on Kakadrak. He is a proper combat monster and has a reasonable stab at carrying a number of artefacts to some effect.
  7. Don't despair. You could easily restructure it to be a Plaguetouched Warband, that battalion is fine in Nurgle.
  8. Yeah Munificent has some nice stuff in there, shame about the Mucktalon ruining things.
  9. Where's Thricefold Befoulment at these days? I really want to make it work but haven't seen any high placing lists for a while.
  10. The Daemon Prince of Nurgle does not have that command ability anymore. Its been changed a single d3 MW regardless of how many 6's are rolled.
  11. Is there any mileage in the Pleasurebound Warband? It's got the lowest drop requirement of all the god marked battalions, so much so that dropping Archaon into it is doable.
  12. I cannot stand the direction taken in the Slaves to Darkness book. Being forced into a subfaction and losing out on a general option to take instead killed my interest in the army stone dead. For me, that design choice was a real shame.
  13. I think I'm probably going to go down that route.
  14. Clearing out some bits and bobs, mainly Stormcast. https://ebay.co.uk/usr/concretegoose
  15. This book really has turned out to be a dissapointment and the FAQ just seemed to hammer it even harder.
  16. Having acquired 20 marauders in a trade I'm keen to get them on the field. However, two questions arise: Is a unit of 20 worth it? And, is there any positive to them having flails? Unfortunately they are pre assembled as such and I can't get rid of them for hand weapon and shield.
  17. Forgive the noob question but: Azyr lists big stabbas as a unit size of 2. Just to be absolutely clear, that means 2 bases, ie: 4 actual orcs carrying 2 stabbas?
  18. Does anyone have any pointers on converting up Maniak Weirdnobs and or Wardoks? Not keen on the official models.
  19. UK based. Have 6 pigs, 5 Brutes, 2 war chanters and 20 Ardboyz. All under coated. War chanters have some kit bashing on them. Looking to trade for Bonesplitterz.
  20. Hi everyone, Having taken some time off from Shadespire over the last year or so I find myself ready to get back in with Beastgrave around the corner. I have purchased all the war bands up to and including Zarbags Gits. As I contemplate rounding out my Nightvault purchases I have some questions. In light of rotation, will the universal cards in Garreks Reavers and Steelhearts champions be legal? They are season 1 warbands but their packaging as seperate releases has the Nightvault branding. If that is the case am I better off buying Echoes of Glory? To the best of my knowledge EoG just contained the neutral cards from those seperate releases. I also don't own any boards beyond those found in the two starter boxes. Do I need to buy the separately released ones or is that enough?
  21. This is good news. I suspected its the case, I just find that particular command ability worded in such a weird way that it gave me a bit of a pause for thought.
  22. So he can use it by himself then? No buddy daemon necessary?
