    Does it have points in the most recent GHB/Is that what determines what is Matched Play legal if it isn't in a tome?

    Currently is has match play points in the current GHB19 and is legal to be used.  Due to keywords it was hard to fit outside of GA Chaos but when the the new Chaos Ascendant rules came out and people were quick to spot a new home for it.  

    I'm wondering if it will make the transition over to GHB20.

    Personally, I think you'd be better off with one of the other marks. If you need BS immunity at a certain moment, just spend a CP, meanwhile Khorne, Nurgle, or Slaanesh all reflect a significant increase in the offensive output of a unit of marauders.

    Side note, imo, you are better off summoning marauders over marauder horsemen because the minimum 8 inch charge out of a 9 inch deep strike makes them very attractive to show up and cause havoc on the turn they arrive.

     

    It sucks to lose the offensive buffs for sure (Nurgle is my favorite chaos god!)but I'm pretty strapped for CP as it is, with the Lord's fight twice ability and summoning abilities of the list.  With the Undivided trait  it helps me to mange what little CP I have not having to worry about burning it for IP   Good point on the summoning foot marauders!  If get more marauder models I'm going to swap out the horsemen for the extra charge abilities . Thanks for the feedback!

    Not sure about your model availability but here would by my suggestions:

    You don't need two Sorceror Lords, replace one with the Chaos Lord to allow one of the Marauder blobs to pile in twice and delete something!

    If you do that, you won't need a second Exalted Hero in my opinion, as you will not be able to spend a command point every turn to summon in AND use the Chaos Lord fight twice. I'd replace the second Exalted Hero with one squad of Marauder Horsemen.

    Thanks for the feedback!  I do have the models to make these changes so it's all good.  I was worried about CP and what you said makes a lot of sense. 

     

     

  4. I'm kinda interested in dipping my toe into a small 1000pts tournament and was wondering if this list would be ok.

    I plan on summoning Marauder cav as I own the models and I like their speed and ranged attack abilities plus hit and run.   I chose undivided because I wanted the immunity to BS it provides.  With such big blobs I know I'm going to need it.   Does it sound good or am I off base here?

  5. Speaking of STD's I'm playing around with a list that just sits on objectives while the enemy takes MW all day long as a means to inflict damage. 

    Start with a Plague Touched warband so we punish our opponent for every 6 to wound.  Add wheel shenanigans to get some extra MW (Grandfather's blessing and foul regenesis can help keep it where we want it).  For a artifact take the stenchplate to inflict D3 MW to all enemy units within 3" of the carrier at the end of the enemy movement phase.  The Flesh Pealer does D3 MW on a 5+ to enemy units within 6" in the Hero phase.  Then use the battalions once per turn ability to do D3 MW to a unit within a 1" of a unit in the battalion on 3+   

    Sort of a "stop hitting yourself" list hahaha.  I don't know if it will work but I'm starting to brew up some ideas and would love to see what other people thought.

    Very quick mock up:

  6. I mostly play Bonesplitterz but I enjoy the IronJawz as well (fell in love painting the Shadespire warband).

    I was looking for a cheaper (money wise) 1500pts  list to run.  I can put this whole list together with just 2 IJ SC boxes but I am open to making changes.

  7. I had a buddy go to that tournament watch the double Idol list guy play.  We've been talking about it in my group and I am very intrigued to say the least.  I've been thinking about a Big WAAGH version myself as the Idol loves the BW buffs.  I just got my first Idol and could be convinced to buy another lololol. 

    Makes painting 2000pts sooo much easier if half of it is just a Mech Standard Grey, wash Agrax and drybrush Stonewall lol.

    I'm liking the horde style lists for Bonesplitterz.  I was considering using Bonegrinz as it keeps the enemy from retreating.  Once we hold hands we are best friends until one of us dies lol.  Lock your opponent in place then cap the objectives.

  9. Why not both? :P

     

    I'm grabbing another box of boyz to get my 20 spear Orruks up to the full 30 man blob.   Then I plan to get the Idol just because it's such a cool model plus it doesn't break bonesplitterz fluff for no monsters.  

    Have you ever been so high on WAAAGH energy that the literally ground comes to life to bash things?  That's so cool and fun!

  10. I was just thinking about a 90 savage orruk boyz blob list as well on my morning commute lolol. 180 wounds for 900pts is a heck of a deal lol. Combine with Bonegrinz so they can't retreat.  We're going to be best friends till the end...forever...

  11. I'm trying to figure out a teef ruk list where I take a ton of Bigstabbas.  I love the model so much and I think there is a lot of buff stacking plus alpha strike possibility.  Back it up with batteline arrow boyz to start the pressure right away and add casters to taste.  

    I too am hopefully about the Rogue Idol it's such a awesome model!  Not taking it as a ally would really open up a bunch of new tactical possibilities.  Just remember guys if we believe it hard enough it will happen due to Orruk WAAAGH energy!:D
