  1. i have been considering building a starcast list with kroak, stardrake and prime, but i don't really know how they play against list that don't run too many heroes. i'm really not sure how they would deal with objectives, and how they would handle hordes.

    If anyone could point out the general stragedy, or meaby throw a link to a batrep my way i would be super happy! 😀

    well... we aren't on the list, i don't know if this means the end, but it certainly isn't good

    although notice tarmurkhans horde isn't there either, so meaby they just don't like fw.

    but we definitely wont be playing any team battles any time soon 😞

  3. i played my first game with spider fang, went really good and i really enjoy how spiderfang play! 8 spiderriders withh all the buffs charged into arkhan and killed him in 1 turn! i like the glass-cannon playstyle. thought i'd lose for sure when my opponent gave my riders -4 bravery, but despite them loosing 12 riders, they still did a ton of work!

  4. im starting a new spiderfdang army so my friends wont bully me for playing stormcast XD, already got 30 cheap, broken spiders off facebook. i also ordered a gigantic spider. im then gonna buy a arachnorok. What should i buy after that?

     

    Also have anyone tried the spiderfang spell? seems like it would work pretty well as a tool to block the path of bigger units.

    TIA 😄

    Where did you find that? I just looked at the Legends document and they only mention "Goblins" of different kinds (and a Goblin Warboss, as opposed to a Grot Warboss). The Orcs and Goblins section of the app has the "Gitboss", but he has no ability to buff, so what am I missing here? :P

    Sorry i mixed up grot and goblins keywords

    Yes, it's just as good as it's always been. Potentially better, with some of the shifts in Meta and item inclusions. Ignax's Scales make a "traditional" Stardrake list a bit hardier, since it has some defense against MWs, which was always his big weakness. 

    Additionally, there's a build going around out there that looks like this:

    LC on Stardrake (Staunch, Smouldering Helm)
    Lord-Castellant
    Knight-Incantor (Azyrite Halo)
    Knight-Incantor (Azyrite Halo)

    Judicators x5
    Judicators x5
    Judicators x5

    Fulminators x2
    Fulminators x2

    Everblaze Comet

    2000/2000

    Lots of ranged damage, much of it MWs. Cast Halo and Lantern on the Stardrake, and it'll do more MWs to an attacking unit with no rend than there were attacks against the Stardrake in the first place:

    -Each natural 6 is two MWs from Halo and Helm, three if it was a reroll
    -Each 4 or 5 to save is a MW from Helm, two if it was a reroll
    -Each 2 or 3 is a MW if it was a reroll

    So if a unit with no rend attacks a Helm/Halo Stardrake:

    • 1/36 (2.7%) chance for 3 MW
    • 2/9 (22.2%)  chance for 2 MW
    • 7/18 (38.9%) chance for 1 MW
    • 1/3 (33.3%) chance for no save but no MW
    • 1/36 (2.7%) chance to take a wound (remember to save any wounds from Lantern as well)

    So a unit of 40 Skeletons with Spears all getting to attack does 3 attacks per model 4+/4+/-/1. 30 saves rolled, on average the Stardrake takes .8 wounds and the Skeletons take back 27.5 MWs.

    Anything without Rend explodes. Anything with Rend -1 (or Rend 0 but the Stardrake charges) explodes a bit less but still explodes. Anything with Rend 2 or higher is a real threat, but hopefully you're chunking them down a bit before they get there.

    Of course, this version is way more susceptible to MWs, so watch out for that, but a lot of the game currently has to do with bricks of Chaff and the Stardrake will drop them with a laugh.

    ah! thanks. i love the stardrake model so much, and im getting tired of evos end sequies! how do you get the objectives in those missions with objectives in the middle?

    Now this thread starts to feel like a bar! Nobody stays on topic, 10 conversations at the same time and people fighting over nothing 😂  cheers fellas! 🍻

    We're just missing that guy with one eye and a missing leg in the corner that conspiratorially whispers: 'I once heard that...' ;) 

    *tips up hat slightly* "GW model dev? *scoffs* i haven't heard that name in years" and spreading roumers? THAT'S HOW I GOT THIS SCAR!

    don't you have to pick one weapon? which one would you go for? I think I would put it on the Skitterboss's spear.

    i was thinking the crooked spears? it would be 10 attacks, that would be the most effeciant way right? and if you getthe re-rolls that might be alot of damage for an otherwise pretty bad weapon.
