That does sound reasonable.
In which case though, what will be our answer to tough, heavily armoured units? It's looking like it won't be Blood Knights, at least not in units of 5 when they seem to be most effective.
Will the Terrorgheist become a must take, or a Vengorian Lord?
Morghasts!

is a vampire lord on zombie Dragon better than Prince Vhordrai? im duscussing with a friend now,
Since ethereal amulet went the way of the dodo I would say not, Vhordrai also hits harder but yeah S others have said probably all going to change on Saturday.

Vhordrai would benefit too.
Caus he wasn’t smash enough!

Have you seen the size of a morghast blade?
I know, I just miss them, unless the that last little Nagash Icon allows us to field LoN as it was...

I fail to see why anyone would think this unit of knights should have a rend -2? People, that is EXCEEDINGLY rare. There are a handful of extremely killy things in the game with that, Gotrek, Terrorghiest maw etc. These are knights, with lances and swords.
Morghasts are -2 rend with halberds.

Thanks guys, had a long day at work and not sure I read it properly. Makes them better than I initially though but still not as good either. Hopefully no more than 200 points or is that wishful thinking?

Damage 3 flat on chargeif buffed 😋 And mortals by passing through.. Only -1 rend though...
This sounds great but not broken so far it seems
Does that mean they can move across an enemy unit they are already in combat with then charge them again?

Expected more tbh. Probably only the one box of them then for me, if they had -2 rend and a flat 2 damage that would have been perfect.

Normally someone gets the Battletome early and leaks some stuff on yt, Reddit etc. Can’t wait to see the warscrolls/rules
Don't most of the youtube channels get a copy the week before?
-
So my hype levels have gone back through the roof, Blood Knights warscroll is crucial. I'm in even if it's bad but it's the difference between one box if it's bad and 3+ if it's good.

Duvalle seems pretty good to be fair, flat 2 damage rather than the swingy d3. Spell makes his attacks all the better too. Can't wait to see the rest of the crimson court's stats.

Those dice!

I would really like If the underworld warband would get really nice and competitive warscrolls for aos. But I think it’s only daydreaming.
We can live in hope, they didn’t want us to know their warscrolls before release of the battletome, so I find that encouraging.

Finally the stormcast get 2+ armor 🙄
Very interested how that will turn out 🥳
Something not even our lord and master is allowed!

Might hold off buying anything now, 3rd edition sounds like it a completely different game and we get the last 2nd ed book?!?

Ive been thinking of ways to spruce up the Vampire Lord on Zombie dragon kit if the warscroll is solid. I was thinking to have a crypt on the base for the dragon to be standing on and then have Prince Duvalle on the base representing the Vampire Lord. I am thinking about buying the Mausoleum kit from GW or maybe just 3D Printing one but I am going to wait on the warscroll ☺️. I am really hoping Radukar is an absolute SAVAGE in combat and I can use him as a hammer and his Babushka is also solid.
Any ideas for what we may see to help combat the Super Caster and Shooting Meta? I am hoping Fell Bats can almost act as Aetherwings but for shooting or have some sort of "Forgotten Nightmares" Deepkin rule where if they are closer to the enemy unit they must be shot first. I am not a rules writer but something to help against the powerful shooting running around. Also, a way to avoid all the crazy dispelling :).
Flag of blood keep on everything! (4+ ward save against all shooting attacks in oldhammer)

do you people reckon we are going to get endless spells and a scenery with the book preorder or...
Might not happen, narratively the Necroquake is over right? So endless spells might not be so prolific anymore.

2 days later and I'm still completely undecided! I just can't make my mind up with the new stuff - 1 minute I'm pumped and ready to drop heavily on release, the other I'm thinking, nah, not for me. Never had this much internal dispute over an army range before in my life. Perhaps old age is making me indecisive...
I’m quite fortunate at the moment; nothing will stop me dropping £££ on this!

God I'm excited.

Erm given the glut of characters a horrendous thought just occurred; what if Vhordrai gets the chop?!

anyway i did a fast photoshop of Lauka Vai and it looks a lot better.I think part of the weirdness of the model resides in the paintjob, this looks a lot more natural
This 100%, it's much better if still a little odd.
-
I've backed myself into a corner of starting afresh so I'm going to be shelling out some money this month!
My only real complaint (Because lets be honest my dream of Abhorash wasn't going to happen) is the Lauka Vai/Vangorri model, could it not have been a mount rather than whatever it is?
Everything else was spot on, hopefully Blood Knights are worth the wait in the rules department.

From the War-Comm article: " everything. The upcoming battletome details several vampiric bloodlines, each with their own history and culture. The ancient beings that lead them are some of the strongest beings in all the Mortal Realms."
Alright, so pretty sure the sub factions are going to be Vyrkos Bloodline & Avengorii Dynasty, and then MAYBE Neferata and Mannfred have their own blood line / dynasty? Or maybe instead of Neferata and Mannfred it is Prince Vhordrai?
Vyrkos Bloodline - the new Heroes and buffs dire wolves and possibly zombies.Avengorii Dynasty - New bat centaur beast lady / lord buffs Varghiests, Bats, etc.
Prince Vhordrai Bloodline (Blood Dragons?) buffs Blood Knights.
Neferata & Mannfred slots into any of them?
Thoughts?
Just hoping vampires are actually made to be some of the strongest beings in the mortal realms...

Have to say compared to Vhordrai's boys legion of night doesn't do it for me. Will be good to see what the other Bloodlines offer (and the Nagash holdover faction).
So long as I can get the dice, warscroll cards and book on release I can wait a while for the rest to see how I actually want to build the army.
I overeacted with the Blood Knights yesterday, pretty happy right now unless they royally shaft Vhordrai on his warscroll.
