  1. Interesting list featured in a BoLS article today: https://www.belloflostsouls.net/2020/03/aos-list-of-the-week-the-ogor-mawtribes-have-guts.html Looks like Boulderhead, and like nothing I've really seen before. Anyone have any insight/thoughts on this one?
  2. Long shot, but I'd be in for another set as well @Mitzy
  3. I'd definitely appreciate the list feedback to be honest. Unfortunately, Lord of Beasts needed to be on the Butcher since he's the general, and I needed enough battleline. The mortek crawler was definitely bad saves and bad fnps, but it's not as bad as you'd think either. He was able to trivially give the crawler an extra attack from arch kavalos every shooting phase. I'll definitely have a go at it today, and retweak for the next local tournament.
  4. I played in the Champions tournament today at LVO, and got absolutely destroyed (0-3 today). I had some really rough pairings, with my first match against the top ranked ITC player in AoS, and two OBR matchups afterwards. The first OBR matchup was nagash + petrifix, and the third round was petrifix + arkhan. Low moment of the matches was getting a stonehorn one shot by a mortek crawler at the top of 1. Any...general advice for me going forward? Feeling pretty bummed about finishing out my two games tomorrow. Here's my list: Allegiance: Ogor Mawtribes - Mawtribe: Boulderhead - Army Mission: Attrition Mortal Realm: Shyish Leaders Frostlord on Stonehorn (400) - Artefact: Ethereal Amulet - Mount Trait: Metalcruncher Frostlord on Stonehorn (400) - Artefact: Brand of the Svard - Mount Trait: Black Clatterhorn Butcher (140) - General - Cleaver - Trait: Lord of Beasts - Lore of Gutmagic: Blood Feast Battleline 12 x Ogor Gluttons (400) - Pairs of Clubs or Blades 4 x Ironguts (220) 4 x Ironguts (220) Units 2 x Leadbelchers (80) Battalions Butcher's Band (140) Total: 2000 / 2000 Extra Command Points: 1 Allies: 0 / 400 Wounds: 121
  5. Just wanted to chime in and say that these dice are BEAUTIFUL, and I'm sad that I only ordered 20. Should have made it 40 when I had the chance, lol. Any chances at other dice for Destruction, now that we've been basically updated across the board? I'd love to see some Orruk Warclan dice, Ogors, or a reprint on these. Thanks for all the work you've put in @Mitzy!
  6. Yep, that's correct. I remembered that the new combined greenskins battletome was on the way, and wanted to see what those looked like (if they do come out with dice) before committing to the Ironjawz ones. The ones you had made up looked great though!
  7. @Mitzy thanks very much, I've sent the money to mark@mitzman.co.uk for 20 dice shipped to the US. Let me know if there's anything that needs to be fixed or if you need any information. Cheers!
  8. Just confirming that there are enough for an order of 20 to the US? I'd be interested! And I'd actually be interested in some Ironjawz dice as well, if those are available.
  9. Are people not having issues with Squig Herds being lost fast to morale? I've played against a friend's seraphon's, and after 1 round of shooting from a single bastilodon, I ended up losing more from battleshock than the gun itself. It's probably user error (I think I have too few HQ's for the ignore battleshock command ability), but I'm curious what others are experiencing. A 60 man blob of stabbas w/ pokin' spears has been the mvp in most games, most of the time my opponents have ignored it due to the sheer amount of grinding it takes to get through it. I haven't actually had a chance to use my loonshrine ability yet. And what are people typically using command points on? Skagrott generates a ridiculous amount of CP. I guess battleshock immunity?
  10. Probably too early to tell at this point, but are there any standout battalions that people are seeing so far? Skulkmob seems great, just because "more free stuff" is always good, but I'm not sure that it's worth the "tax" of 3 units of fanatics. Also, any "must buys" from the new releases? I think I'm only leaning towards getting the Loonshrine and Skragrott for now, and working with my old moonclan models, but I'd hate to miss out on anything that's "too good".
  11. So obviously the Loonshrine is going to be an auto-take in ever GG list. How does terrain placement actually work in tournament/casual settings? I don't think I've ever played against a faction with their own terrain to place. Does the owning player get to place it, and just wherever they want?
  12. I could have sworn I saw it in this thread somewhere, but it's moving fast. Can anyone confirm ally options for gloomspite gitz or vice versa? Especially in regard to Ironjawz.
  13. Probably a stupid question, but I don't get to play as often as I wish I could. When purchasing a Bloodtoof battalion, do I also need to pay for the Ironfist battalion? Do I also get the Ironfist bonus/benefits?
  14. Had my first two games with my Ironjawz yesterday (1500 points), and I'm really feeling at home with the playstyle. That being said, one of the games I played was against Stormcast, and it felt like climbing a mountain the entire time. He had a guaranteed turn 1 charge against me after deepstriking, by using Sureheart's command ability twice (he bought 2 cp). dropped a 10 strong unit of evocators, and had a chance to do 10 mortal wounds to my MK boss top of 1, along with tying up a unit of goregruntas and brutes. A 20 man unit of evocators pushed up the middle, and basically ate 3 units worth of brute charges, with a 2+ save and full rerolls. After that, they basically grinded them out, I'm not sure I even killed half of the unit. Just....how do you deal with that kind of list?
  15. Bit of an open-ended question, but are there any examples/resources out there of tournament winning Ironjawz lists, for AoS 2.0? Can't seem to find anything available. How are people liking either of the big Forgeworld centerpiece models in their lists (Trog Hag, Rogue Idol). I'm looking to get one (or both!) of them, and I'm not really sure where they fit in for an army that's already as elite as ironjawz are.
  16. So what role do you guys see the Black Coach filling in your lists? Not quite the beatstick model that I was looking for, but it's certainly tanky, and can probably run the board safely on its own. Should I be using it as a disruptor/flanker with Hexwraiths and deepstriking it? Feels like with the ridiculous amount of speed that it has I can deepstrike out of charge reach, and get a turn 2 charge safely.
  17. What're you all enjoying for battleline units? And battalions? I'm not convinced that any battallions are worth taking at 1500 or below, but would love to hear your guys' opinions. Also, what seems to be a good ratio of heroes to infantry at 1000 points? 1500?
  18. Circling back to dealing with those big tanky models, the destruction player in me is a little disappointed that Nighthaunt don't really have a beatstick (though I know that isn't really the playstyle). Is our strategy at this point going to be horde it up, and fish for mortal wounds? I'd loved to have had a big centerpiece model to deal damage and hold areas of the board. Even the Black Coach doesn't seem to fit that role.
