  1. I was thinking more a hypothetical subfaction that makes Bladelords battleline! If it can happen to Bladegheists then it can happen to anyone lol Edit: oh wait, I forgot they can already be battleline for each Scinari hero you take!
  2. Especially interesting in a competitive season where 32mm battleline can fight in two ranks!
  3. Anyone else catch that Shining Company looks to be different? It's moved to the Bladelords warscroll and reads like you can break and remake it. "Subtract 1 from hit rolls for attacks that target this unit if the base of each model in this unit is touching the base of 2 or more other models in the same unit." Also doesn't mention any restrictions around runs, charges, or pile-ins.
  4. Like I said it wasn't a competitive list so they were Goretide, not Reapers of Vengeance. My opponent only really plays when I'm jonesing to try out new stuff on TTS. However still a valid question. Skarbrand had a screen of Chainrasps he could have easily wiped out but I still had about 25 Bladegheists with Shademist on, Discorporate available, and the support of a Krulghast and Spirit Torment. I would have to do the math on if he could have lifted that, but my opponents army was almost wiped out except for Korghus Khul and Skarbrand, so I think I still would have got it in the end.
  5. Played a 2k game against a friend who was playing Khorne Mortals yesterday. Battleplan was Won't Back Down and we called it at the top of turn 3 with me winning 12-8. Skarbrand missed a critical 3" charge (with rerolls) and they didn't get the much needed double turn to start a comeback. They don't play much so they didn't field a super competitive list, but it was good to get a feel for our new book. I basically cribbed @Boggler's list but swapped Kurdoss and the Spirit Hosts for Reikenor, 10 more Chainrasps, and Chronomatic Cogs. I also put the 3x10 Bladegheists in to one big 30 model unit. I don't have a full battle report, just some musings. -Scarlet Doom is my jam, Bladegheists are my favorite unit and those MWs on the charge were great. I really hope it works out as a competitive choice. -I usually don't like Hexwraiths but I used them as a suicide block to keep one of his flanks held back and was very impressed. They were able to retreat with one model left and I spiked Olynder's No Rest for the Wicked which brought them back to full strength, very nasty. -I was initially very bummed about the Spirit Torment changes but was actually happy with the flat 3 models coming back every round. Felt like a sweet spot between not being worth my opponents attention but still making an impact. -Galletian Veterans and the GHB 2022 changes were a chore to explain to someone not keeping up with the game. "How many rules does one game need" was uttered at least once haha. In practice though, I found it much easier to manage since it was mostly passive. -The new battle tactics are wayyyyy more fun compared to the last set when we didn't have Monsters. Anyways that's all I've got, if I remember anything else worthwhile I'll edit the post.
  6. Yes the heroes are coming! No matter what else, that makes me so happy.
  7. Might have to try and find a KoS on steed on eBay if they don't release it with the book. That "follow me" rule when they attack would gel well with the dreadscythe harridans
  8. I've given the leaks an initial skim and the severe lack of damage and minimal MW output is reallllyyyyyy disappointing to see. I'm not sure how we'll be able to shift anything off objectives as it is, but maybe there's some combo I'm not seeing. The allegiance abilities are great but the warscrolls are so bland. I know it's a general trend in 3.0, but seeing Kurdoss with only one rule on his warscroll really felt like a gut punch . Edit: Also if the Guardian of Souls and Knight of Shrouds on Ethereal Steed don't get released as individual models when our book drops I'm gonna lose my mindddddd.
  9. Yeah this is mostly my issue so far. The allegiance abilities have to be pretty insane to make something like the crossboos playable at a competitive level. I really doubt that'll be the case but would happily be proven wrong. Hype = hope = disappointment, and it really is the hope that kills you. I guess at the end of the day we're the army of grief and despair, so it's just thematic for GW to torture us!
  10. Lets not forget that one of those 5-0s the player was allowed to bring their own terrain, which was physically enormous and (imo) provided them a huge advantage. I would say some early 4-1's and 5-0's (more than likely caused by people just not knowing how to play against them) followed by languishing in obscurity qualifies as "a crappy tome", but you may define that differently.
  11. *PTSD flashbacks to Nighthaunts initial release* They 100% are capable and willing to do just that lol
  12. I feel you! My collection is primarily grimghast reapers, bladegheists, spirit torment, and chainrasps. Least favourite units are banshee and harridans 😔 Everything we've seen so far hasn't been inspiring but I've got a shred of hope left for some super op allegiance abilities to bring us back to being at least relevant.
  13. Previews have so far given us an idea of a lot of what we're losing, really looking forward to previews of what we're gaining in return! Hard to get excited right now (I might also still be salty at how bad NH have been throughout 2.0 and early 3.0 🙃 )
  14. The old app was able to let you filter warscrolls by keyword (i.e. type Monster in the search bar and it'll show just warscrolls that have the Monster keyword). has anyone found a way to do that in this one? Also +1 for the constant crashing after the initial opening Samsung S10e here.
  15. This: Contradicts this: And I think "I don't want it, it's not what I asked for", is a pretty common perspective among those unhappy with the app / Warhammer+. So I hope that satisfies this:
