  1. No, Beasts of Chaos were specifically an edge case. The original FAQ back at the launch of 2.0 was fully meant to shut down cross allegiance battalions like Everchosen and Nighthaunt. That was why before they fixed BoC, there was a massive RAW vs RAI debate. Now this might change with the slaves/darkoath/everchosen update, or maybe not.
  2. Anyone running a Corruptor solo without other pestilens as an antihorde brute? Or is a warpseer/warbringer better for utility?
  3. I dont think there will ever be a time when Azyr is 100% accurate!
  4. Wait what did they change about DoK? 😜
  5. Yea Mierce minis are pretty cool, though making an army out of them can cost an arm and a leg! I kind of wished they made that plastic minis board game which was going to include some of those Ysians, but maybe the plastic wouldnt have held the details. And of course the curse of KS logistics would have probably struck Mierce much like it always does to these indie studios.
  6. I'm pretty sure Undivided chaos is the big update since it is a Herald army. Thats the big problem right now honestly, the whole strategy of "Herald armies get the model update" might have sort of backfired in terms of people getting excited for new models for army updates. Slaanesh breaks that rule, but only because of daemons being usable both in 40k and AoS. I mean theres quite a lot of worry that there will be very few if any mortal slaanesh stuff.
  7. Well it's probably a good idea to have a spare battlesmith anyways when they get inevitably sniped. Got to have those heroes giving the hearthguard their better wardsaves!
  8. Oh my comment wasnt on Hearthguard, it was the Armor Stacking. Something tells me you're not suppose to have 2+ Armor Save fyreslayers! Unless you are and every army should have 2-3 battlesmiths all hugging each other! Naked Slayers being tankier than Ironbreakers sure sounds weird.
  9. They usually refer to the original wound characteristic. I think very few damaging spells or abilities rely on the remaining wounds. (though I could be wrong)
  10. I mean they faq'd Skullcannons not getting extra attacks from wrathmongers, if it becomes a problem they'll slap it down. (even though people do say that was an unfair treatment) When it comes to "vague" RAI vs RAW rules, I always try to take the safe bet that something sounds too good to be true.
  11. You know, am I the only one that thinks its a good thing there doesn't seem to be a Seraphon update any time soon? That would greatly increase their chances of new models! Not that seraphon need new units, but you know finally replace the "how is this still here, isn't this suppose to be the center of the army" metal sculpt slaan! There definitely needs to be more details for example. The vanilla slaan is so...plain! I need more headpieces and ancient bling!Even if I suppose fluffwise why would lizard daemons care about that stuff...
  12. Even DoK missed the GHB 2018 point change right? And they came out pretty early 2018.
  13. Dont you need a Crypt Ghast to have Ghoul Patrol? Or did you mean to use "Royal Family" since you have 2 ghoul kings?
  14. If theres one thing I'm hoping happens tangentially related to khorne, its a buff to the slaughterbrute whenever they get updated! How is such a huge creature completely lacing rend -2! And it's giant mouth doesnt even have rend!
  15. But in WFB they still ate into your Hero/Lord slots or points. Now the murder machines are like cruise missiles! Buy a few and send them off!
  16. 1 model Chariot units are great cruise missiles in nurgle battalions. In Nurgle armies, blades of putrification can make centigors surprisingly punchy.
  17. To be fair you almost always want one anyways! 😜 But yea free terrain is an issue because it is a "Free" buff/allegiance ability. So it cant be too powerful otherwise it mind as well cost points, on the other other hand it can easily be a very niche thing.
  18. Yea I imagine much like slaughterpriests, fyreslayer priests will have a constant presence. Plus at least Fyreslayers have 3 options compared to khorne's 1 so theres some variations. (Well theres the chaos warshrine, but thats harder to fit in most lists) Really like Greyfyrd's passive! That is the direct opposite of the usual with subfactions where you have an item tax. Now you get an item boon! With a battalion (methinks which would be easy to slip in) thats 4 artifacts! Well 3 artifacts and 1 forced artifact. But still pretty cool nevertheless. Hero Hammer here we come!
  19. I dont think you can ambush razorgors. But they are a cheap filler to let other things ambush! If you're allowed non-gw stuff I'm curious if the Immolated Rhino from Wyrd would make a good razorgor stand in
  20. Cool use of a squiggoth! (Even if squiggoths should be for destruction! seriously why are squiggoths completely absent from WFB/AoS?)
  21. Thanquol himself could even take plague! And cast it with +2 to cast if hes not hurt!
  22. If you really hate hordes, you could even run a VLC in a nurgle army and give him the Pestilent Breath trait for even more mortal wound fun (it's a quasi-shooting attack that deals a mortal wound on a 5+ against a unit for every model within 6".) Of course then its a nurgle army, not a skaven army.
  23. Also fyreslayers were made in a funny time of AoS, where perhaps, at least to GW's eyes, 2k points wasnt the "standard". Despite 1.5-2k almost always being the "standard".
