    I think people are overvalueating anhilators. If they are 200 points, why would you take them over evocators? They only do mortal wounds if you get your charge, if not your points are pretty much wasted. Evocators do there mortal wounds if they attack so much more save output+ they are wizards. Only thing that’s better with anhilators is the save that makes them tankier but it’s still 15 vs 9 wounds.. I still see them at 150 points..

    I have to compare them to my Ironjawz Brutes. Honestly I hope they are 200pts.

  2. I decided to not take him... for now. The new box is awesome and I will have loads of stuff to try, paint, build, ...

     

    Right now he is so bad and I faced Morathi for the first time yesterday , and he would have been meaningless in a duel with her.

     

    So waiting for the new behemoth rules. I'm already playing my dreadmaw when I want a "liquid" list ^^

  3. Soooo... I played against Lumineth. It was... interesting.

     

    I was wiped out at the end of the second round and I don't really see what I could have done. With my list or any other list really. Maybe a gorefist to block his units for 3 turns and hoping to score enough. But I don't think we can hold three turns.

    Removing your model without almost any counter measure was a bit frustrating I admit.

    Guys "strenght from victory " megaboss ability stacks turn by turn? If turn 1 and 2 i kill a model, turn 3 i got +2 attacks and +2 wounds ? Thx !

    By the way guys, how many kill of "Strength from victory" were you able to stack ? I ended up with a megaboss on foot with 10 attacks recently! :D 

  5. I feel like I'm really lucky. Players in my area are really chill and all about having a good time while playing. I play Ironjawz and I win a lot. I think that Ironjawz is one of the best "average army" and even if my opponent play an army considered as the monster of the moment, they will play these armies without spamming the broken combo of the month. That's why I tend to win. 

    I try to bring unit from Underworlds to tone down my army some times, just so that these amazing models can see the table from time to time.

    To conclude with, we are not narrative players (I certainly would like so') and try everything we can to win while playing, but we just tend to leave the list building aspect of the game outside.

    They really did get neutered this last go around. those weapons are bigger than most infantry models and you're telling me they're rend -1... Pssssh.... Grot, please....😄

    I feel you!

    Did you use a file to wear the armour down to get that beaten look?

    I used a scalpel to remove plastic mostly. Lost a bit of my fingers on that, not gonna lie...

  7. I also dislike arboyz.

    They don't fit the Ironjawz aesthetic without a lot of work.

    And they are our best unit. I decided to forget about list building and play with a bit of every unit we have (aka not a lot^^).

    One of their downside is their weapon range 1" with their base. It's a big issue for me. Or against this new (stupid) allopex rule. It's a reason to try butes with 2" range for me.

    But even then : their warscroll is easier to read, less different weapons ! Ardboyz are even superior on that aspect ^^

     

    I need to proxy a Boss Fist, maybe there Brutes will have their place ?

    Edit : my custom ardboyz !

  8. I played a list with a lot of brutes on TTS last night. Against a Jaw of Mork list.

    It was close but I won. My brutes did the job, with Ironsunz command ability, mighty destroyer and a hand of gork, I moved surprisingly quickly, preventing the charge of boingrot bounderz etc ... And two times, a unit of 5 brutes almost survived a fight phase with a mangler (died at the moral phase without CP).

    Sooo I intend to try a Boss Fist at 2000 points next time. With two MK. What kind of loadout should I use on the second MK (I don't have the choice for the first one) ?

    Da Boss Fist isnt matched play legal anymore - See the GHB20 FAQ which answers this question. Basically if it is released prior to the GHB but not in the matched play points section, you cant play it. 

    Could you give me the page or a picture of that? I don't find it! :(

    Do we know if WD battalions are still matched play legal?

    Nothing in the GH2020 say they are not. :)

    I'm also working on that Da Boss Fist list, but I don't know about warchanter, I like having a second MK and one drop army...

  11. With this change, I'm thinking about "Da boss fist". A reduction of 50 points at minimum.

    I wonder if I should forget about warchanter to keep a one drop army. One warchanter is almost a brute unit. And with the battalion buff, they are even more a threat.

    @Warbossironteef Wyverns are just kinda rough to find, at least if you want the oldschool model. The boarguy is much easier to kitbash with a regular boar guy and then an Ardboyz upperbody and some banner from another chaos/destruction army. You also get a passive aura of reroll 1s to wound with the boar guy. ;) 

    The boar warboss is "legend" now , right ? If not, I'm playing mine again as soon as possible ! ^^

    I'm surprised more of the tourney list's I've seen don't include the Orruk warboss for Big Waagh.  Having access to a Waagh from turn 1 and being able to double Waagh later on seems super strong, and having a reroll 1's to wound bubble is never a bad thing either for a fairly cheap price.  Is the concern that he's going to get faq'd out once faq comes?  Because he's addable in the app, so doesn't seem like it was an oversight.

    Well, if we keep him, our battletome is really scary. Keeping the waaagh bomb with all the other buff we got... 

    I don't want to be the new slaanesh.

  14. @PlasticCraic Thank you for your blog, it was a great read ! Especially the part about Ironsunz counter charges happening after slaanesh locus... how could I miss that !!!

    A list without a MK can put a lot of wounds on the table but that model is so awesome that I want to do something competitiv with it.

    Well the good news is, Leo Rautonen recently beat Slaanesh to win Bloodshed (80+ player event) and you can watch how he beat them :D

    The video is really long and I'm not a good english speaker... could you sum it up for me ? Highlights of his list ? And of his gameplay ?

    @broche is saying that it's a great waaagh army, can you deny that ? It's written Orruk Warclans so ...

    Thanks, you give me hope ^^
