In one of the AoS podcasts on the Warhammer Community YouTube they said that the designers build the models then the writers make the rules and battletomes after. So if the rumor is to be believed they have started work on a battletome, that means that our theoretical goat cavalry, anvil of doom, and big golems are already finished.
-
Yeah I doubt they will abandon them. But you have to think, Gloomspite, Skaven, FeC, beasts of Chaos (I think), Khardron, and Dispossessed are all in Chamon and it has been talked about and referenced heavily in the past couple weeks/months. I’m betting we see a campaign like Vigilus from 40k but in AoS taking place in Chamon. And what an end to that campaign it would be if the dwarfs get a release.
-
Ah ok that would suck then to have an ambus army.
-
I totally considered the chariots, but again, they look so bad that I don’t want to deal with them. You wouldn’t happen to have any good ideas to convert them? also what do you mean by Total Commitment?
-
Thanks again. I’m not too fond of the doom bull so I’ll probably just stick with getting rid of one of the beast lords. Although this does significantly detract from my initial plan for making nurgle bombs with pestilent battalion. I looked into it and yeah I’m going to get some marauder horsemen and God’s to make centigors. I will try all the bestigor configurations thank. the ambushing Ungor Raider unit and a hero with the horn sounds like it could really do some damage, but to do that I would have to get rid of either the eye or the mutated knarlblade. In a more competitive sense I would definitely go with the horn for the awesome ambush. But the whole thing is I’m trying to make a good nurgle list of BoC.

The Imperial Guard disagrees
-
I somewhat agree, a good few of the armies that have been released now are basically in the exact same spot they were in during Fantasy. Although many of these new armies few different ecausd their lore and backstories have changed massively. BoC are basically exactly the same as Beastmen, LoN are basically Vampire Counts with less emphasis on Vampires, and Gloomspite is just an all goblin army from Orcs and Goblins. I expect I’m missing a couple factions as well that haven’t changed that much. Of the armies that have changed I feel it’s not that they have changed more so that they have been split up and further expanded upon.
-
That makes me happy to see them listed as separate things, as well as them still being called Karaks.

@Grim Grudgebearer Do you know what your brother’s deepkin list is? Without any prior knowledge I would suggest to go wide though, warriors, and then some ranged support for the deepkin. I’m sure he’s bringing eels, so you won’t have to worry about getting into melee first.
-
Thanks for the feedback really appreciate it. - I had the idea to run the two beastlords up the board early to kill a bit then turn into spawn. I could give the second one an artifact but that takes away the eye allowing me to get more command points. Is that worth it? - I forgot you can summon spawn in, thanks for this - I would love to run Centigors but man they are such ugly models - I could definitely split the 20 into 10. Why are bestigors better in small numbers? Wouldn’t that just make them easier to wipe off the board? - I have heard people say that 40 unbor raiders can do a lot of work so yeah I was kinda putting them in a group to do some damage. I think I already have enough harass with this list.
-
Can I get a list critique?
-
Was there any specific reason why they conceded? But congrats on the win though, what army were you playing against?
-
Ye Olde Titanfall. Love it! -
Sorry if this has been discussed before, I’m sure it has, but how competitive can Gavespawn and the Pestilential Throng be? If I’m reading it correctly it looks like I can take a bunch of beastlords and really do some good damage by just throwing them at the enemy, then they die and turn into spawn, further tarpitting the enemy while my force gets into combat. Is this a good idea? Any specific things I can do to make it more competitive?
-
I knew I was onto something when the first Dankhold troggoth picture was released! And all these other statue and the banner. It must mean something!
-
What are the actual rumors of new elves? I keep hearing people say there are rumors of new elves, but I have yet to hear them? I have a feeling we might get something next year honestly. Whether or not we’re combined within a free cities battletome or get our own book, they’re running out of other armies to even update. Also I guess I’m the only one that hopes the warriors/thunderers/quarrellers stay? I agree they are aging, but overall I think they look ok, and if they all got removed than I think we would be missing some cool units.
-
Yeah this list doesn’t seem all that great, the battalion is not great and it’s a lot of tax for not much return. Drop the battalion and unforged, drop some longbeards, (why do you have so many) add some Hammerers most importantly.
-
@Walrustaco that list looks a little lacking in bodies. I know it’s all you own but you might try to buy a couple units more to get some more options. If you’re going for a 1000 points than you can add 10 warriors to get to the full 1000.
-
You say the Grudge book is full?! That’s another Grudge!
-
Black base looks much better, it was a bit too much red before, now it looks awesome!
-
Just our grumbling.
-
It’s settled, more flame throwers then.
-
That’s what I was thinking, of course I will be getting more of this kit in the future though. Is there really a set number people run breakers at?
-
Quick questions and need some opinions, I have 1500 points of dwarfs now and my most recent purchase was the Ironbreaker kit. I currently only have 10 Irondrakes. Should I build the new box as 10 more drakes or make a new unit of 10 breakers?
-
I might just be crazy, but I swear that looks like and Irondrakes statue head. This is the Dankhold Troggoth’s club head btw.
