yeah I must have thought if bloodsecrator could do maybe they could but I believe they may have change bloodsecrator stacking when 2.0 came out. it had the same wording as command abilities but command abilities are allow to stack since your using resources to activate it

Does the Sporesplatta buff stacks if you have multiples unit in the field?

I am predicting that they probably going to release Ushoran finally since he is currently the only Named character for FEC that running around in AoS and he probably going to be the head honcho for all the ghoul

my opinion on the battleline are Spider-riders are fast and mobile Glasscannon that need the most support and synergy from the other Spiderfang units, good build in abilities Moonclan stabbas are the most reliable options, the have a lot build in support with their equipment, require them to be in large unit for max effectiveness Troggoths heavy hitters good against tanky units, has a blend of shooting, defensive, and offensive abilities kind of expensive Squig, cheap offensive choices not as mobile as spider riders but just as good Glasscannon output, doesn't have the greatest build in abilities like the others do.

I understand they don't need much support but I feel like their offensive stats isn't really enough to chew through stuff fast enough unless your talking about the bounders (which I think are getting price increase), yes versus each other the squig are pretty good, but other faction out there have thing like negative to hit, ignoring rend and other things that prevent damage that the squig can fail to get damage in. I feel like you can't solely rely on alpha striking you opponent

the thing with squigs is that there not as much combat buff for them compare to Moonclan and Spiderfang armies, the only two are the Mangler boss Command ability and Sneaky Snuffler. their thing is really hitting the enemy fast and as hard they can to do a lot of damage. TBH I thing most competent army list probably has to have a backbone of grot infantry (or even trolls) to hold the back line sturdy and support.

Well their lore is that their so many of them that it be impossible to wipe them out completely, it kind of an written plot armor that they don't go extinct. Are you sure Gortrek won't ascend to become a god in the future, or a god right now?

well it only because their detachment is the cheapest in the game currently that every imperial army are begrudgingly have to use them in their list hence why people complain about soup in 40k. it also the most efficient way to play Imperial knight is to have Imperial guard their for the CP fest, if they weren't considered such a necessity to play the game that they have to shoehorn into every army, they may not be as popular.

I wonder are they just going to be like a Stormcast in training faction it be like go devote yourself to Sigmar, be zealots and fight without care of your own life, when you eventually die if your fate is strong you become a Stormcast

So any ideas of what going to be reveal at LVO for AoS while we are all speculating about the need of a human faction and how distant the release is going to be My guess would be the stuff they tease about in the Carrion Empire reveal (maybe new BT for FEC and Skaven), the remaining Nightvault Warbands, and a 17 second teaser of the next big AoS release

also Carrion Empire is set up in Chamon too, so we have Flesh eaters, Skaven, Gloomsipite Gitz, all fighting in that realm currently So it seems that GW is maybe hinting at something.

hmm I surprise there no Grimgor, I would have though they would have release him for Made to Order by now I will say that they sneakily did not put a hyperlink to their webstore page under the word Greenskinz but did it for Ironjawz

I have found out thought the Loonboss on Mangler squig is very suceptable to shooting though or at least to the point where he get bracketed to the place where he has terrible movement and stats that he couldn't move anywhere useful until he took damage to get back to the good bracket. that what i suspect that his weakness is being really unreilable glass cannon if your not careful

I think we should keep in mind though that the 40k codex that where rapid release last year where just rule with a lot of reused assets ( like the cover art was basically the cover from last edition) and not much of other stuff, AoS battletome are more extensive require a lot more work to be put in ranging from Background lore writing, rule writing, new artwork, and that not considering think like Playtesting. I don't expect AoS to get the same exact treatment as 40k did last year.

the Evocators have the same wording but it was clarify that the dice roll is for the number of Evocator in the unit, so I believe it should work the same way. Boingrot also has the same wording but you definitely roll the dice for every boingrot models in the unit to do the MW

I heard from a second hand source that FW is beginning to shift it focus away the main GW games and only focu into Specialist game like Titanicus and Necromunda/blood bowl.

Reading the Gloomspite battletome they gave a brief background paragraph on the Grotbag Scuttlers being a different sub faction of grots from the Gloomspite and Gitmobs who went to live in the mountain ranges instead of underground during the age of chaos and develop an aerial sky force. From the amount of info and exposition, it does look GW has plans or are planning to make Grotbag Scuttlers into a new army in the future

It a good thing I already have 60 stabbas because Geez they are sold out like crazy both online and locally where I am at. look like I am going squig heavy for the mean time also apparently the Plastic Madcap is No Longer Available on the US store, So RIP GitMob

I don't think Science apply in a magical setting like AoS, we are not even sure the Human even exist in this setting are true Homo Sapiens since it quite possible ever human where made by magic when the realm where created like Seraphon where.

I think recently GW are going away with small hero model with different weapon options for some reason ( probably less plastic pieces ) the only time they every give you different weapon options now is on very big character models like the GUO and the Megaboss on Maw Krusha

Sneaky snuffler can't use their buff on Rockguts since they don't have the Moonclan keyword

I notice that the new Loonboss on foot are on 32mm while the previous Grot warboss where originally suggest to be on 25mm.

I think they always intend to add Trogs in, the New Dankholds have the Moonclan mushrooms and their aesthetics on them plus they also got the Nightvault release so it indicates that it was plan in advance, putting spider in the book was probably wasn't plan originally but since people ask for it and Spiderfang was a functional army range at the time despite having three unit, it was probably very easy to tack on to the release but they didn't get anything new unlike the other two. Gitmobs I think were just too old and their models weren't repackageable that they where phased out during the release

even though I have to rebase mine, I am happy that the ball and chain on my Mangler isn't sticking out any more

Mangler squig are on 80 mm bases Dankhold are 60 mm
