    It has two CA, one can give the rerolls to a unit and the other gives +1 attack during shooting. 

    A bonus to hit while shooting is surprising for an army with only one known ranged unit. I think it would be great if something got a ranged attack (Stalkers with bows, like Ushabti?) but nothing that's been revealed shows anything more than we've seen.

  2. Hi, everyone! I asked this question in the Beasts thread and thought I'd get a perspective here!

    If building a list for Depraved Drove, is it generally a better idea to play Hedonites Allegience with the battalion, or is it a case of "Beasts and Hedonites do different things but each has its strengths"?

    Playing as Hedonites would cause me to lose out on the Allegiance abilities, and I think I might miss Ambush.

    Essentially what I'm asking is: would a Depraved Drove list lend itself better to Slaanesh allegiance or Beasts with Slaaneshi allies?

    Are you still looking for a high elf dragon? I have an unpainted one I’m trying to sell for a very reasonable price 

    Sure, just message me how much you want for it and all that! Is it assembled?

    Welp, I got into FeC before their update and.. long story short I don't really have interest in playing them any longer and am looking to sell them off. I want to replace them with BoC, which I should've just gone ahead with in the first place...

    Anyway, what are the competitive lists looking like nowadays? I saw some leaving Desolating behind due to the new territory zones, but I also wonder how well Raiders would do without this. Are competitive, tournament focused lists still running 30-60 of them or has focus shifted more towards pure CC? I've seen some examples using Gavespawn + Depraved. With the activation wars continuing on, I assumed shooting of some variety was still an auto-include.

    Just curious to get some ideas before I start list building and buying.

    I'm also curious. Would anyone be willing to give a quick rundown? There's the 1d4chan tactics page but they tend to be a little hit or miss with their AoS tactics.

    I'm just saying to keep expectations in check.  If they're then exceeded, great.  But if not, saves you some grief.

    I've always found that to be the best policy with releases. Often I hear people expecting new models for a range (with no evidence that any are coming) and then get frustrated when the don't get anything. If I don't see it I don't expect it.

    Some interesting info that suggests previous speculation could be true. I'm inclined to believe this, as the repurposing of the Watchtower TM is so lazy but so GW. Also the Demigryph general makes a lot of sense, and is feasible.

    Edit: I actually like the watchtower and will be happy to have it. No endless spells makes me happy.

    Odd, you're the second person I've heard call the Watchtower repurposing lazy enough to be GW. I'm not criticizing, I'm just amused that I've seen it twice. Unless it was you both times? Who knows?

    I also like the watchtower. I was disappointed that their terrain kit was an old model for like half a second before I kind of shrugged and realized it was basically what I wanted from their terrain piece anyway!

    I hope the Demigryph general is true. I want to be able to convert my Marius Lietdorf into a general!

  8. What does everyone think of Ironbark? Thematically I like them a lot and I think I'd rather field them (or Heartwood) once I paint up my Sylvaneth. They might not be the most competitive choice but damn the torpedoes!

    Having said that, I'd like to know what everyone's thoughts are on Ironbark. Even if it's "Ironbark sucks and you suck for using it".

    Is it possible that the new ogors box with the tyrant might feature cities of sigmar as the other half? I know a lot has been made of the pact of bones and the new death faction, but none of these limited battle boxes have featured wholly new factions before, just a new hero model. Given the cull, might be a good way to slip in a new cities free guild general or another hero type.

    That would be interesting!
