Pretty sure the Know-wotz roll is just a fancy way for you to declare you're rolling a dice to do their ability

Has anyone had a chance to build Skragrott yet? If so how easy do you thing it'd be to swap out his head? I don't like using named characters normally, but he seems pretty tempting. Just not sure how easy or hard it'd be to convert him a bit.

Just a question;  although the Sourbreath Troggoths do not appear in the Gloomspite Gitz book,  they do still have a warscroll and points, so are they still a legitimate unit in game, simply without the Gloomspite Gitz keyword.  

They should still be legal to use for now. However it seems like GW is phasing them out, so I would expect them to go away come GHB2019

So Loonking being able to steal relics is interesting, making him the first named character I can think of that can have an artifact. Curious to see if it's permanently stole for the game, or if he just gets it for a few rounds. Also very curious to see how the 'passage of the bad moon' mechanic will work out.

Also on the note about some of the new models I wonder what kind of buff the Sneaky Snufflers will give. I do enjoy mass infantry buffed up to high heaven.

The Shyish relic that gives the Ethereal rule might be fun on an Arachnarok spider.

CP to make your Tzaangor blob auto pass a battleshock test.

The Cogs would seem like a no brainer (more spells is more better, especially for Tizz), likewise Spellportal is being hailed as the true auto-include (especially for Tizz), but I've been looking at the Geminids + Prismatic Palisade of late. Geminids do lots of damage and debuffs, while the Palisades offer some neat tactical plays and aren't predatory so don't give your opponent as much of a gift (likewise the Cogs).

Drop 10 Acolytes for the Alter-kin Battalion? Might be fun to get a few tzaangors here and there.

Thanks for the suggestions! Think I'll run the Alter-Kin Battalion. Gives me the extra CP to help my Tzaangor blob going, and it coupled with my Shaman has the potential to bring back 2d3 Tzaangor a turn, which would be quite handy. Plus this way I don't have to rush painting my endless spells just yet.

So getting ready for an upcoming 2000pt battle this weekend was probably  going to run this list:
Allegiance: Tzeentch

Leaders
Tzaangor Shaman (180)
Ogroid Thaumaturge (180)
Curseling, Eye of Tzeentch (160)
Gaunt Summoner (180)

Battleline
20 x Kairic Acolytes (160)
20 x Kairic Acolytes (160)
30 x Tzaangors (480)

Units
6 x Tzaangor Skyfires (440)

Total: 1940 / 2000

I'm kinda a budget player so I wont be summoning any Daemons, outside of a few brimes for the Ogroid, so I wanted to have plenty of bodies, and firepower to throw around. Not sure what Endless spells I want to use with the 60pts leftover. Probably Geminids? Thoughts?
