  1. doesn't the hag also get the +1 to cast because she is technically a gloomspite wizard? if so she probably one of the only unit that get two benefits from the Bad Moon From the video of GMG review of the book, I believe the Moonface Mommet is an artifact only available to the Wizards
  2. well they did say info is coming within weeks so we will know more soon
  3. doesn't look like anything change on the FW warscroll beside all the Squig, the Hag and the bonegrinder Gargant gaining the Groomspite keyword
  4. Well didn’t see that coming, looks like more skaven and FEC stuff are hinted to come. Interesting that all the skaven stuff is Clan Skyre.
  5. this is pure speculation but supposedly in the lore, the Grotbag Scuttlers (Grot pirates) field impressive artillery against the KO. My theory would be that the Grot pirate army release would be GW replacement for the Gitmob and that they would somewhat based on the old Doomdiver model
  6. I was kind of sad that command ability was gone and not just tweak a little bit, but it was a bit powerful and hard to use since he had to be the general but I agree having a 4+ is pretty amazing and a chance of getting a command ability is way more useful and reliable abilities especially if you field multiples of him. I though the Deffcap mushroom changes was a bigger nerf but losing the reroll ability isn't as bad. he probably still useful as an ally piece too especially army like Ironjawz would love to have more Command points and still being a cheap caster
  7. So some big changes to the Fungoid Shaman he lost his command ability (kind of sad) and now its just an ability to get an extra CP on a 4+ but he doesn't have to be the general or anything the Deffcap mushroom just give you an extra spell to cast once per battle but all the negatives are gone. his 5+ save is now a 4+ save but he no longer always -1 to hit his spell is the same I felt like he kind of got worser but with a spell lore, possible point changes, and abilities from the book, he still maybe very useful
  8. my only thing was that they didn't release the Grot Scuttling from Silver Tower for this army. it felt weird that they didn't do that when that unit look like it would have fitted in well with the Gloomspite Gitz.
  9. the Skittlerstrand deepstrike ability is pretty bonkers the flinger seems powerful if you can hit that 4+, amazing range and has good ultility I think GW has done a good job differentiating the unit variant in this release, they all have different abilities and strengths so you got good options
  10. Rockguts have a d3 mortal wound rock throw attack that has a better range and auto hit any unit with 6+ model in them and a 5 + save for wounds and mortal wounds
  11. well looking at everything so far, This army has loads of way to dish out MW at their enemies. out of the current armies out there, their MW output is probably one of the highest
  12. you can see the Warscroll for Mollog and the Rockgut on the battletome store page. Rockguts have a 5+ invulnerable save and a range boulder ability that does d3 mortal wounds if you roll equal or less then the amount of models in a unit Mollog has special ability for his minions and is similar to a dankhold troggoth, though I can't quite read his warscroll on the page
  13. looking at the Loonshrine, the battleshock immunity wholly within 12'' seems strong. the reinforcement ability seems ok, bringing back units at half strength on a 4 +, it seems pretty balance and can be useful bring 30 grot back when your unit of 60 just got destroyed.
  14. the D3 damage is a bit of a drawback, but it a workable one (using Gnoblar as a sacrificial unit in a Gutbuster army for example)
  15. For the endless spells, they are all pretty low cast value spells that have interesting abilities and some drawbacks the Aracknocardron has a +1 casting/unbinding for the wizard that summons it plus it then knows all the spell from the Moonclan lore, the thing is always 1'' away from the caster and every hero phase it must do d3 mortal wounds to any one unit within 3'' of the caster, if no unit is in range the caster suffer d3 damage. Mork's Mushroom seems like a stationary spell that affect every model in a unit ( including your own ) in 8'' of the mushroom, roll a dice every model and on a 5+ it does a mortal wounds. The Malevolent Moon is a predatory spell that does D3 mortal wounds on a 2+ for every unit it passes though, in addition it subtracts 1 casting rolls of wizards within 8'' and 2 within 3''. Scuttletide is pretty much like quicksilver swords you pick a unit and roll 6 dice and on a 5 up you do a mortal wound, However in addition it does damage it damage effect every time a unit moves or charge within 6 of the model. Spiderfang are immune to the damage.
  16. Reading the warscroll, Skargrott is pretty cool, I do like that he both a wizard and an artillery piece. the other one are pretty solid too like the Troggboss and Loonboss
  17. I feel like your better off using Ignax’s scale, the negative seems a bit too strong
  18. it from the Soundtrack of Warhammer 40k Mechanicus video game. GW like using music from their licensed video game for their trailer sometimes
  19. Did the Scuttlings made it in to the army release? it be kind of weird if they didn't since this would have the best moment for GW to release them separately from Silver tower. but I have seen anything that would suggest that they are part of the Gloomspite. I think the Trogg Hag is maybe of similar size to the TroggBoss. if you could still use the Son of Behemat battalion and use the Bonegrinder giant as the Gargant King, then he probably bigger
  20. Man if it a deepkin like release, my wallet going to suffer this January. I glad I held off buying thing until this release came
  21. Sometimes I wonder if it a good idea for GW to do that flash flip through of their books in their trailer knowing people will just do an in-depth video forensic to spoil stuff. Or maybe it just an advance marketing strategy to get people hype for stuff
  22. I think after the BoC leak they decided to just tighten the noose on leak information TBH i didn’t expect Grot riding mushroom squiggly beast and Centipede riders so I am already overly impress with the release so far Is that two mangler squig riding a squigaroth?
  23. also it looks like there are even more new models that haven't been reveal yet. Finger cross on new trolls, Mangler, and Centipede riders
  24. Hail to the LoonKing I hope they change the charge rule for Gargants, but since they didn't do it for BoC I doubt they do it for destruction.
  25. There definitely a troggoth unit of some kind, there something in the distant wielding a war hammer (which could also be another Troggoth)
