  1. A lot of people talking about stacking WoT - but other than the save modifier, it doesn’t stack, right? best you can do is -1 to hit, no save and strike last, which given that requires multiple 8+ charges and at least one 10+ is both harder to get and arguably worse than the old WoT where you could fight twice.
  2. Sorry if this has been posted already - isn't there a typo in the rules for the Shadow's Edge artefact? It says that it causes D3 MW if the wound roll is a 6 - but then says do not make a wound or save roll? I suspect it's if the hit roll is a 6, as otherwise it's a bit rubbish on a high rend D2 weapon! Could be nice on a Cairn Wraith.... Edit: In addition, Cairn Wraith has attacks equal to models within 3", but doesn't have to attack that unit. So an attack on a support hero, while numbering the attacks based on the models in their bodyguard unit could get quite nasty.
  3. Had my first AoS 3 game with my Nighthunt (sic - it's Wanderer themed) army. Vs a Gotrek Living City list. Somehow managed a win by dragging Gotrek into no-man's land, then popping up with From the Underworlds on the objectives my opponent had rather carelessly abandoned. Certainly felt like the list had no staying power or hitting power, but a lot of maneouvrability, such that you could force an enemy with only a few units to waste time chewing up your small units. Overkill is definitely our friend. If Gotrek spends an entire turn wiping out 10 chainrasps (doing about 10 wounds of overkill) that's a turn he's not doing anything useful. Couple of pictures of my favourite models.
  4. Slowly morphing my wood-elf themed night haunt into a wood-elf themed Soulblight army. First completed unit are these direwolves:
  5. My slight issue is that every model in my army is quite heavily converted, which makes horde units a bit of a pain. However, I have enough battleline units to run it as a NH force, and can slowly build up my other units to allow LoG or GHN allegiance in future.
  6. Thanks - I've ordered a copy of the Forbidden Power book off Ebay. Am I right in thinking that the only units counted as Battleline for LoG are those which are also Battleline for all other allegiances? So I'll need some skellies or lots more chainrasps to make up a legal army?
  7. So I’m almost finished painting a 2000pt Nighthaunt army. Looking forward to using them in a game sometime once lockdown ends. Looking to expand in a vaguely LON direction, adding one unit at a time - I’m a slow painter. This may be a dumb question, but how do I get a copy of the rules for Legion of Grief?
  8. E-Copies should have come through by now. Did yours arrive? Gmail threw a fit when I tried to bcc a whole load of addresses with an attachment.
  9. I'd particularly appreciate your thoughts. I struggled myself getting into Black Library type stuff at first, so I've tried to write something a little different that's more accessible.
  10. To celebrate the release of Cities of Sigmar, I have released a book of stories based around three new cities in the Mortal Realms, including a Wanderers-centric novella. (This is not an official GW product, so I will NOT be charging for it). I have a limited run of print copies, which I will send out free of charge. If these run out, I will send out audio/ebook extracts instead. If you'd like a copy, please fill in this form: https://forms.gle/59Yo2pyMpLMa9mhy6 In return, I would appreciate an honest review (details in the book). This will help me attract publishers/agents for future work.

  13. I'm amazed no one has yet suggested what seems an obvious solution - combine with this changing the roll to a 1. This means that units with autopass or special abilities on a natural 1 get a chance at this without using a CP. If this fails, you can change the roll to a 1 and boost bravery using 1 CP. This could save you up to 10 models (assuming a roll of a 6 and bravery 5 to bravery 10). Maybe even allow use of Hero's *unmodified* bravery? Or would that be too powerful?
  14. I really hope you’re right (and there’s no reason why you shouldn’t be). I’m just setting my expectations low so that new developments are likely to be a bonus not a disappointment.
