    It’s mostly just a habit because I almost always build for MSU. Since it doesn’t change the points should I make it a blob of 20 Besties and a blob of 10 CW? Personally I always prefer MSU as it maximizes my chances of attacking with everyone in the unit and provide more units to split across the table and grab objectives. I guess whenever I’m able to buy this army I can try it out in multiple ways.

    Here: https://www.games-workshop.com/en-US/Khorne-Bloodbound-Lord-on-Juggernaut if your store is an official Games Workshop store just go into the store. They should have a computer. Type “Lord of Khorne on Juggernaut” and this should come up. Put it in the cart and order it. Shipping will be free and it will arrive at the store pretty quickly. Pick it up next time you drop by.

    Well my battle report will be brutal but very short. At the end of the 4th round I tabled the dispossessed player. I lost a total of 4 brutes and 5 Gore-Gruntas. An overwhelming victory. I didn’t lose a single complete unit at all. I was able to make excellent use of smashing and bashing and took out his guns early. He also miscalculated removing some models which helped me rampaging destruction with my Maw-Krusha in the 3rd round.

    So.... do all my leaders fall under the Battalion or literally only the Battleline?

    The Lord of Chaos on foot or the Mounted one? Also, thanks for the feedback. I think I'll keep cogs and remove the rest. That'll free up 80 points but I don't know what to spend them on. @Greven How does this list look?

    I've got a game against some Dispossessed tomorrow. I've never played them before, and I also have no Endless Spells or the Fungoid Cave Shaman atm. I've got 40 Ardboys, 25 Brutes, the 15 I am planning on bringing are all dual-wielding but I also have 10 with the 2 handed weapons. I've got 9 Gore-Gruntas. I've only got 1 megaboss on foot atm and 1 maw-krusha, but I have 4 shaman and 3 Warchanters. This is the list I was going to bring, but I'm not sure which command trait or artefacts to bring. I don't actually know what dispossessed do at all really.

    I bought the Resin model from Games-Workshop. Last I checked it’s web order only but it’s still available unless I got the last one or something...

    I was taking the lord of chaos on foot so the army could run and charge with his command ability. Does that overlap with the battalion though? I picked Gors because they look the most like the Beastmen lineman from a Chaos Blood Bowl team and Bestigors were too expensive points-wise.
  9. Ravinsild
    So I love Blood Bowl and all I've wanted is just a classic Blood Bowl themed army. Just Goatmen, Minotaurs and Chaos Warriors. So I came up with this list. Is it absolute garbage that will never ever win a single vs anyone or could it actually work?

    What's the best way to run a Gorefist? Apparently this is now our go-to battalion as opposed to Ironfist? And/or Weirdfist. This is great though, more options and ways to play! I like Ironfist (bloodtoofs too), Weirdfist AND Gorefist. I wouldn't hate trying out a Brutefist just to see for myself why nobody uses it, and Ardfist seems like it has some potential for...something. Anyway: What's the typical Gorefist list look like? I've heard tale of 2 Maw-Krusha lists or ways to use the Fist of Gork Mr. Gordrakk himself? I also find it interesting how the beginning of this thread began with a lot of Bloodtoof lists with Cogs, and people were fairly certain that was the best way to go, but now allegedly Gorefist and Weirdfist are the best ways to go. What changed since then?
  11. Ravinsild
    But..my inquiry wasn't about how to defeat Tzeentch It was how to effectively use Chaos Knights and Chaos Warriors or any of the other Mortal Units with Khorne Bloodbound, including the Chariots or any of the leaders. They just have some cool models and I was curious about their place or viability within a Khorne army. As I understand it, Khorne is probably in the same place as Ironjawz: Middle Tier. Not the worst, but definitely not the best. Just somewhere in the middle, aka "fine". In other words: for an army that's already not amazing, do normal Chaos units offer enough to bring or in any way enhance our list to boost them and make them stronger, or is it more dead weight to an already weakish faction?
  12. Ravinsild
    I asked this in Slaves to Darkness, but I'll ask here, for all Khorne players to see and get their opinions: Is there any situation in which one might take Chaos Warriors or Chaos Knights? (Or any of the other dudes, like a basic Lord of Chaos, etc..) For me, personally, I'm having trouble figuring out Blood Warriors place in Khorne Bloodbound. I like the models a lot, I think they're really cool, but I find they're slow and often don't really make it into combat, and I'm not sure what to do with them. I've also learned to respect mortal wounds and things like Skaven with lots of mortal wound generation, the Chaos Warriors with their shields seem like a really tasty defensive objective holding unit. Thoughts or opinions on normal chaos boys place in a Khorne list as opposed to the strictly dedicated? (I don't play demons so I have no comment on any of the demon units.) PS: Is there any shooting or artillery units worth it for Khorne?
  13. Ravinsild
    Take my “advice” with a barrel of salt, however: in the lore and like 3 seconds of reading I’ve done because I really want to collect this army it seems like they fight with Bleakswords out front, Spearmen behind those and then Darkshards behind those. So maybe trade 20 Darkshards for 20 Bleakswords or Spearmen as a screen to block charging? You can still shoot into combat unlike 40k. It might help?
  14. Ravinsild
    Yes that was explained to me on my first game of AoS 2. As you can tell I have not played much AoS, mostly 40k but I like AoS more now. Between Khorne Bloodbound and Ironjawz I really think I’ve found my armies. Even though I started in September 2017 to GW Games starting with Blood Bowl table top, and I had an entire Khorne army, I only ever played 10 or less games. Now I’m trying to get Games in weekly because I just really love my Ironjawz.
  15. Ravinsild
    I've read this sentence several times over, but is there any way you could say it differently? I keep getting mildly confused. What I *think* you are saying is that now, models need only be within 1", and not base to base, for their 1" weapons to hit, so it is now easier to use 1" weapons? Base to base contact is no longer strictly required?
  16. Ravinsild
    That's a good point. I love the Mighty Lord of Khorne but using him would take me 20 over the cap unfortunately. However I could use a Bloodstoker.
  17. Ravinsild
    Yeah, I like Blood Warriors are "ok" but I have a hard time finding a purpose or spot for them. My Skullreapers just murder everything in literal droves and I adore them, and my Bloodreavers are weak chaff, but they get consecutive buffs and can at least lay down a bit of hurt and fuel my blood tithe, plus they can grab objectives. They're disposable but versatile. Chaos Warriors to me are appealing because of that mortal wound save and they just feel pretty sturdy. I do like how when Blood Warriors die they're allowed to fight anyway, so they never feel wasted per-say, but they also never seem to be amazing. Chaos Warriors feel like they bring a unique amount of defensive tankiness that Khorne doesn't exactly have. That's why I had my eye on them. TBH I have a theory crafted list like this: Allegiance: KhorneMortal Realm: AqshyLeadersLord Of Khorne On Juggernaut (140)- General- Trait: Violent Urgency - Artefact: Talisman of Burning Blood Slaughterpriest with Hackblade and Wrathhammer (100)- Blood Blessing: Killing FrenzyBloodsecrator (140)- Banner of Khorne (Artefact): Banner of RageAspiring Deathbringer with Goreaxe and Skullhammer (100)Chaos Lord On Daemonic Mount (140)- Mark of Chaos: KhorneBattleline3 x Mighty Skullcrushers (140)- Bloodglaives3 x Mighty Skullcrushers (140)- Bloodglaives3 x Mighty Skullcrushers (140)- Bloodglaives3 x Mighty Skullcrushers (140)- Bloodglaives3 x Mighty Skullcrushers (140)- BloodglaivesUnits5 x Chaos Knights (160)- Chaos Glaives- Mark of Chaos: Khorne5 x Chaos Knights (160)- Chaos Glaives- Mark of Chaos: Khorne5 x Chaos Knights (160)- Chaos Glaives- Mark of Chaos: KhorneBattalionsBrass Stampede (200)Total: 2000 / 2000Extra Command Points: 1Allies: 0 / 400Wounds: 151 I do not expect this to be the most competitive list, but I think it would look incredible as an all mounted force and might do somewhat decently.
  18. Ravinsild
    I’ve been keeping my eye on Slaves to Darkness models because I really love how Chaos Warriors and Chaos Knights look. Is there any place for them in a typical Gore Pilgrims Khorne Bloodbound list of mortals? Are Chaos Warriors a good replacement for a defensive wall versus Blood Warriors? How about Knights? Anything else of note that could help bring something cool or new to a normal Khorne Bloodbound Army?
  19. Ravinsild
    I can run this list if the GW store lets me borrow their endless spells, but I don’t think they have a spare Balewind Vortex. That’s also on my list to get.
  20. Ravinsild
    When it comes to demons I have no idea. I don’t own any and probably won’t own any except Bloodthirsters. For some reason I just don’t like the Bloodletters Aesthetic and no matter how strong they are I can’t bring myself to run any.
  21. Ravinsild
    I’ll do some play testing when I am able and see what happens. Really like Brass Stampede and Skulltake Battalions but I’m worried Khorne Bloodbound cannot function without Gore Pilgrims. I may be wrong.
  22. Ravinsild
    So I don’t plan on playing in any tournaments but I would like to bring a solid all-rounder list as my local meta is fairly competitive. Things on my to-do list are: Get a Baleful Realmgate as well as a Fungoid Cave-Shaman and Malign Sorcery for endless spells. I chose my realm based on my Waaagh’s personal lore, but I have no clue at this point what general traits or artifacts I should be going for, I also like Ghur because it’s where Ironjawz are originally from based on what I can tell in the Battletome. Right now this is about the best list I can manage. What do you think? Realm: Shyish Leaders: Megaboss on Maw-Krusha (general) Megaboss Weirdknob Warchanter Warchanter Battleline: x5 Brutes with Dual-Choppas, Boss-Klaw & Smasha, Gore-Choppa x5 Brutes with Dual-Choppas, Boss-Klaw & Smasha, Gore-Choppa x5 Brutes with Dual-Choppas, Boss-Klaw & Smasha, Gore-Choppa x3 Gore-Grunta with Pig Iron Choppa x3 Gore-Grunta with Pig Iron Choppa x3 Gore-Grunta with Pig Iron Choppa Battalion: Ironfist
  23. Ravinsild
    I had asked this earlier, but for the quick and short of it: Is it viable or worth it to run 2 battalions, mostly Gore Pilgrims + <insert Battalion> like Skulltake or Brass Stampede? Or would the points being invested in the 2nd Battalion most likely be wasted?
  24. Ravinsild
    I was watching the Stormcast Podcast about Khorne and the guy mentioned stationing troops around Gravesites to neutralize them or something?
  25. Ravinsild
    How do you guys feel about double Battalion lists? Are they worth it? I’ve got two lists I’m considering and I would like to play test them. List 1: Leaders Lord of Khorne on Juggernaut Bloodsecrator Slaughterpriest x3 80 point Aspiring Deathbringer Battleline: x 3 Mighty Skullcrushers x3 Mighty Skullcrushers x3 Mighty Skullcrushers x3 Mighty Skullcrushers x10 Blood Warriors x10 Bloodreavers x5 Bloodhounds Warwscroll Battalions: Gore Pilgrims Brass Stampede or: Leaders: Bloodthirster of Insensanate Rage Bloodsecrator Slaughter Priest x3 Bloodstoker Battleline: x10 Blood Warriors x10 Bloodreavers x5 Blood Warriors Warscroll Battalions: Gore Pilgrims Skulltake Other units: x5 Skullreapers x5 Skullreapers x1 Khorgorath
