  1. Awesome to read about your success, and to listen to them talk about your list earlier today. Kairos + belakor in hoat D seems like an awesome control deck. I also love brand of the spirit daemon on the manticore. Interested to hear your ideas for host arcanum? I've been playing with the kairos+chost list that is being touted around the net, having allot of fun, another tricky control deck.
  2. I like the premise. Just a few things I would consider. Why pyrofane with knits of 10 acolytes? Duplicitous would give the loc a great trait and artifact, and the host ability is strong. Tzaangor shamen is weak sauce really. A better fit to support the tzaangor would be a fatemaster. But then you've got two ca's competing for competing for your points. The list lacks rerolls for casting. Blue scribes imo are pretty much mandatory in a tzeentch list. For its points that warscroll is probably the best in the book. Full of flavour and awesome abilities. But not bent.
  3. Maybe a skyshoal coven in host arcanum? Screamer battleline with tzaangor disk support? Could be fun. I run mixed lists all the time. I do well in my local gaming group, but would probably not do so well at an event so it depends on your definition of viable.
  4. Soul snare shackles triggers in the movement phase, lasts until the end of that phase, and halves the movement characteristic. So potentially you could trigger it on a 6, say on some ardboyz. The ardboyz would then only get to move 2.5 inches, but they would also get to move a full d6... What I'm saying is shackles has 0 effect on the d6 movement from taking damage.
  5. Agreed. Although seraphon are unlikely to be touched this ghb, I would imagine this had gone to print before or as the seraphon book was dropped. We'll have to wait until christmas for those changes. Totally agree with buffing the mortal side. And I dont think 20 points on flamers, pinks, and exalted flamers will kill them, but it will make it harder to produce a changehost, and it's the battallion that truly makes those things scary.
  6. I totally agree with what you're saying about horrors. I don't think they need to go up either, but they will. The issue is they're going to try and balance the book around changehost. Instead of balancing changehost. Which is what worries me. The points increases I think will happen. Maybe even higher than what I suggested. But I don't think anything in our book will come down. The tzaangor stuff has needed a reduction for a long time. The reason I've suggested 20 points is because most points adjustments are done in 20s.
  7. This. Loc/kairos, tzaangor, skyfires and enlightened all down 20 points. And then more than likely. Pinks, flamers, exalted flamers, changehost battallion up 20. Gaunts up 40. Personally I think this will leave is in a good place and people could stop hating on us. I think that's a dream world though. The fearmonger in me things we will be taken out back behind the shed and put down.
  8. So, I'm trying to build an isolation list that is A. Ghb proof to some extent, B. Not horrible to play against for opponents #friendlytzeentch C. Can win games So that I can get it all painted up. I've already started my painting obviously but most of what I have painted fits into the list anyway. So next the reason I think its ghb proof, most everything in the list, I believe, will not go up in points; Excluding the gaunt summoner, and the darkfire daemonrift. - I have 120 points of redundancy in the list I think, the 20 man acolytes squad can drop to 10 man, and the gaunt on disk can be a gaunt on foot. And the darkfire daemon rift can be traded for geminids, which means I still have a valuable tool, it just does a different job. So what do you think? If I get this painted up will I still be in a decent place come next ghb? Think its solid enough to take on some of the big boyz? Once iso is all over and the tournement season starts up, however that looks, I'm hoping to get out there and go to an event, for funsies. 👍 Thanks
  9. Anyone had any experience with the new blades of khorne? They have allot of anti magic capabilities now. Are they a hard counter to us? What about the hexgorger skulls?
  10. Looking forward to reading a write up for your games. Why did you choose ogroid over perhaps a shamen? Why did you choose the thermalrider cloak? I assume the gaunt was on balewind? Why did you choose witchfyre coven with only 2x10 acolytes? How did summoning go for you? How many people went to the tournament and sort of competition did you face?
  11. That would be incredible but can you imagine the points increase on him? If every game he bought a 200 point unit to the board? Then again. Flesh eaters do it. So maybe?
  12. I agree with everything averageboss and Asimov have said. I honestly think we'll just see points changes though. I just want all the endless spells and terrain features! Well of eternity for a terrain feature or summoned spell? Things that give us bonuses to casting? Deffo want a force multiplier. Yum yum. Force multipliers that effect the mortal and arcanites spell casters making them more viable.... And a book that actually means something. Not the thing I currently have.
  13. How do you feel about the limited number of units we can field? Once those units in the battalion are destroyed you lose the benefit. Units summoned do not gain the benefit. And the one thing horrors are good at is dying(Not saying that's a bad thing). The battallion list doesn't do anything else either because of the points investment. So all you have is chaff, chaff shooting and magic. No combat, which happens up to 10 phases in a game. Not trying to poo poo change host here, actually I'm hoping you can convince me it's worth the monitary investment because I'd love to run a list like that, but I'd also like to win games.
  14. I really just want to run acolytes as marauders, which I don't think is too farfetched. And my friends wouldn't mind this. But the fact that the base size is different bothers me to know end.
  15. Loc is also strong. Together they work well. My 2k list at the moment runs them both with blue scribes and pink horrors. I'm seeing some success. Trying to get back into after a 6 month hiatus. Honestly, if love the the rules/points to stay the same as far as marauders go, but I'd really like them to get a new kit, those models are bleurgh.
