  1. I'm sure i'm not the only one to realize this, but all the model in the AoS app and in the new books have their round bases. Not in thier display picture, but in their war scroll picture.

Facebook group started!!! https://www.facebook.com/groups/1059476980768759/ This sundays Painting Competition is a Battle line unit!! Get your battle line On!!! Good Luck. Fluff for this week: The Dust settles and all around you, you see the other champions. It would seem Manfrad stand unharmed, but everyone else seems to have some losses to thier ranks. Even as Manfred stand victorious he stand alone as the only death presence. That is save for one figure who seems out of place. As you look around you can tell destruction faired well, the ogres, goblins, and orcs all bump chest and jeer eagerly. Chaos and order though more numourous than the other factions, all look concerned. They know they have been bested by superior forces and worry for the next conflict to come. Everyone gets ready for one more fight. . . Suddenly the one who stood ignore among the presence of death appears between all the armys. He stand at the crossroads blocks each combatant from their foes. He speaks, "You all fought well," he almost shrieks out, " It would seem the forces of destruction will be something to fear, but doubt ignore death. Chaos and Order had better rethink thier strategy if they wish to win this game. Now then, Welcome to Le Grande Melee!!!! I am Garry your Master of Ceromonies, and host to Le Grande Melee." He goes on to explain the rules of the game, and you feel your coin purse grow heavy as magical doubloons fill your pouches. The true games, apparently are just around the corner. Dabloons Many of you have your "Dabloons" those are the silver colored bases with your factions color around the rim. You can use them to score points throughout the week. Simply wager as many as you wish against your opponent before each game. Your own factions coins are only worth 1 point to you, no matter the shape. Other faction coins are worth 2 points, and if your not a general circle bases are worth 3 points. Turn this in Sunday or at least by the following friday. You can leave them at the store in a bag for me to collect with your name and faction on it. Sunday, have 500 to 1k points. Generals make sure you bring 1k points. Battle line units are buffed for this event. Rules will be given out on sunday. Along with the lore.
  3. I do the same thing. Mortis engine is qutie nice in the horde army as it has nothing but shooting to fear, and it takes a good chunk of shooting totake it down anyway.
  4. A Meeting At the Cross Roads: Prolog Fluff: Your invitation has instructed you to meet at a clearing just off the road from here. You and your troops have circled around and it seems to be a small dense forest that lays before you. From the forest you can feel a strong energy tugging at you, but you can't put your finger quite on what it is. All you truly know is that you’re going to need to brave this forest, but you can't just marsh your whole army in here. It seem just right for a trap, where a large force could easily become trapped between the trees Even Seraphon, Stormcast, or Daemon champions couldn't just warp their force to the center of this forest as the magic here would more than likely repel any outside forces. You see three possible options or combination of options before you: If you’re a powerful summoner with minions at your fingertips; you could simply walk into the forest alone, and act as a conduit to summon your forces with you should you need them. Perhaps if you had a powerful steed such as a Dragon or a Stardrake you could rip through the forest, but you know the wake of your destruction would leave the rest of your army unable to follow. You also surmise that taking a small detachment into your forest would leave just enough room for everyone to operate effectively, even in the case of a trap. Either way you know you must make it to the center of this forest for the opening ceremony of Le Grande Melee, where power has been promised for you and your faction... Your trek through to the clearing had a few wild creatures that charged your group aiming for you as if you had somehow personally wronged them. Though they proved to be no match for your forces, and you made it to the clearing. Here the power that you felt earlier overtakes you completely. You look upon an ancient sarcophagus overgrown with moss and vines. You can feel power bleeding out from the coffin, filling you with anger. You know your faction could be doing better in this war, a fact paramount for the existence of you and those you hold dear. If only you were in charge . . . mind wandering reliving the wrongs the world has done, a need for vengeance grows strong. You look at the sarcophagus as if peering through the green stained grey stones and the power inside promises to be the answer to all problems. Once this vessel is opened it’s powers promise to aid you and your faction, sure to bring a swift end to this war. Lifting your head and looking forward, seeing . . . yourself? No, they are one of a rival faction. Your kin in thought alone stares back. Both of you look at each other filled with so much hatred, but also understanding that this chest is what could tip the scales. You notice your foe has already armed themselves, and you realize that you too are armed. Rules: 500 points max (includes your summoned creature) No core required Must have a Leader. Games will be played on one 2x2 tile with 3 turn length games Roll against you opponent to see who sets up first using AoS set-up rules. Each game will be 45-1hr depending on how quick the play is. Deployment will be within 10" from opposing corners of the tile. Victory conditions: A chest will be placed in the your battle field. +1 point for having your General within 9" of the chest at the end of the game +1: If you have at least 10 wounds within 9" of the chest +1: If no enemy models are within 9" of the chest +1: For tabling your opponent

  7. Looks like destruction and death are sill missing some leaks friendos.
  8. Yeah, and i think if i played against one i'd ignore it too. I think i said some whre else. It's basicly you either make a infernal standard army where you have a large number of models who can get a 6+ save, or a Mortis engine army where you have a few big fatty models who want a nice heal.
  9. Mortis engine is a good second wind for big nasty armies. Coven thrones, Zombie dragons, Morghast, and other high wound count units like to for the heal that go a long way on these units. This unit also does a decent job of tar pitting after you throw the requiary. That said it wont consistantly poor out mortal wounds. One reason being it must activate it's wail of the damned in the hero phase and not in the shooting. It also works well with your mages. If you bring the mortis engine though bring it with the maligant formation, and then it set up savage level plays. Coven throne is a Tarpit. While lower leader ship it does better 11+ (where 10 is the highest bravery you can get??) is a 50% chance. agasint most enemits you've got 75% shot to go off. This lets you take troublesome models out of the game. If you fail you move 14" away no problem. Also the throne puts out about as much damage as neferata (ignoring spells of course). Nef gets more rend, but the throne give an extra mortal wound. While, most comp scores put the coven throne at half the price as Nef. Way i see it if i already have a Vamp lord on zombie dragon or other general i'd take the coven throne for the savings as both would end up doing pretty much the same thing anyway, and the throne would do the tarpit thing much better. I run both the throne and Mortis engine and things go quite well. Think i've only lost 1 game??? that said i'm new and have only played....14 games???
