    If soup means more armies will get book releases faster I'm all for it. Split them back up in 4.5 edition. I don't want books coming out a few months before a new edition (fec). Give the game a year to just breathe with all the factions up to date. edit: seems I'm a bit late to the soup-talk party /shrug 😂

    I want an Allegiance ability that reflects the in-faction treachery always going on. Specifically something like the old skaven banner bearer rule but rewritten as a more useful Allegiance ability. Kill my skaven General? Who cares, another rat takes its place. The nearest skaven hero becomes your general, pick a command trait for that hero. Besides that, just more minis and a SbG style format with the great clans kept in tact. Moulder is best-best.

    Where the Rats at GW???

    Big questions are whether tree contagion points are multiplicitive and what the heck Noxious Nexus is intended to do. I would also really appreciate pusgoyles getting the same 3" coherency as sce dragons and Idoneth sharks.

    So, its been over a month since release and still no word on a faq for the new book?
  6. Verminlord
    I'm happy to wait if it makes for a better game and not another drop in the bucket like all the phone games/ small pc releases
  7. Verminlord
    Right, but in an army that doesnt have a whole lot of models on the board, and tons of options for heroes that can buff, I'm taking the heroes that can buff without needing 5 models to die every time 😕

    Would be nice if they had some kind of chaff unit you could screen with to farm death points and then immediately charge. Little runebound fire elementals or something #wishlisting

    Yikes... so you have to lose more than half of a unit, in most cases being a reinforced unit, before you get a bonus until end of one phase... assuming the guy isn't killed before then

    So many of the BoC sculpts are not up to date with the current standard, and there are also so many redundant similar looking units. If soup is planned I would expect a few refreshed sculpts and a big culling of what they perceive as non-essential. Oh really, I was not aware. Thanks for the correction.

    They did, it was removed. They are clearly the basis for new dark elves

    With mawtribes, Soulblight, gloomspite, cities, and oruuk warclans all being soup tomes, I think it's just the way GW are thinking about releases now. I am sure the new dwarf faction will be like KB was for orruks in a soup tome. It honestly wouldn't surprise me if Malerion elves were an expansion to daughters of khaine too. They already have the keyword "umbraneth" warband in their army.

    How about confirming new battletomes for those armies. Or previewing the heros. They're finding plenty to talk about space elves

    So I've taken the plunge with papa N. Bought 2 maggotkin SC, 2 Nurgle daemons SC, 1 broken realms gortle pulpskull box, 2 GUOs, 1 maggoth lord, 1 glottkin, a few 3rd party nurgle trees, and an extra box of PBs and pusgoyles for a LoA. Been spending all my hobby time building everything up and magnetizing the bigs. So ready for the new book! I'm crossing my fingers for endless spells and pestigors.

    I'd use them for alternate sludgeraker riders and sloggoth trogg crew. I think the sculpts are great

    I've been having a lot of luck with this list: Usually start the Grave Guard in the ground and have a unit of blood/black Knights escort the Wight King wherever I want Grave Guard to come up so that they can reroll the 9" charge. I know people don't rate black Knights very well, but I'm getting a lot of use out of their min 5 unit size with cav bases stretched out. They are just there to screen and be bodies on an objective, but can also just push up the board and bait charges/ contest objectives for a turn. I've been able to summon them back very early thanks to how fragile they are T1 and how quickly my damage ramps up T2 when Grave Guard come up. Going to try something similar in Vyrkos and kastelei (fragment of the keep looks so tasty) eventually.

    Looks like we got a new Master moulder/packmaster leader!

    Ooh, I do like that more than the 9 stormfiend list. I think the warpseer is overkill if he's taking it for battleshock. I would replace warpseer with thanquol. Gives a better bonus to cast for bridge and is pretty much unchargeable to a lot of threats: Allegiance: Skaventide - Grand Strategy: Prized Sorcery - Triumphs: Inspired Thanquol on Boneripper (405)* - 4 Warpfire Braziers - Lore of Ruin: Warpgale Arch-Warlock (175)* - General - Command Trait: Verminous Valour - Artefact: Amulet of Destiny (Universal Artefact) - Lore of Warpvolt Galvanism: More-more-more Warp Power! Plague Priest (85)* - Universal Prayer Scripture: Heal 10 x Stormvermin (110)* - Halberd 10 x Stormvermin (110)* - Halberd 10 x Stormvermin (110)* - Halberd 6 x Stormfiends (630)* - Reinforced x 1 Warplock Jezzails (290)* Soulscream Bridge (70) *Battle Regiment Total: 1985 / 2000 Reinforced Units: 2 / 4 Allies: 0 / 400 Wounds: 102 Drops: 1

    Hey fellow rodent enthusiasts. How is everyone liking 3rd Ed with Skaven? I've got about ten games under my belt and am feeling really good about them. The 9 stormfiend list is useless competitively speaking, as many builds just hard counter it. I think Skaven can podium but no one has cracked the code on a tournament winning list yet. Here are the lists I've been playing with and tweaking: Two Towers Gun-line that doesn't rely on MMWP Pure Moulder Feel free to ask any questions or give feedback! What are you guys running and having success with?

    Hi, been thinking about dipping my toe into nurgle. Always loved Pusgoyls and would like to make them work. Them counting as 2 models each at 8 wounds is a nice bonus. Could something like this work? Still undecided on whether to split up the plaguebearers or not.

    I'm from Texas, I just asked him about it:
  23. Verminlord
    Anyone been testing out thanquol?
  24. Verminlord
    They are 3D printed resin Rat Ogres sculpted by Duncan Shadow Louca. Lots of sellers on etsy.

    Just wanted to share the mvp unit of my last game with skaven/moulder. 6 toughened sinews rat ogors took a total of 5 wounds from a charging Frostlord on stonehorn. Granted they were in cover and had mystic shield, they are absolute TANKS that can do decent-good damage.
