  1. Eomer - Lion El Johnson (compared the Dilhoutte with the cover of the book) - Fabious Bile - sons of behemat? somehow this leaves me cold do far... mhm
  2. In Germany I've never heard of a tournament (except those taking place in a GW store) that forces you to take GW miniatures.
  3. I do. Yet it‘s mostly dead points since all the buffs are too specific and the damage is really meh. But it looks cool!
  4. @j0lt yes we have, there‘s even a separate thread for it. It can work (and it has for me!) yet you‘d better use it in a Ravager list to get the 18“ aura from the artefact on your karkadrak. =}
  5. It‘s 25mm. 32mm looks like this (Way more space):
  6. https://banduawargames.com/es/exclusivos-web/39878-6-acrylic-areas.html these seem almost perfect: If they had magical runes along the curvature of the rings then they would be perfect (the black dots are pretty immersion breaking)
  7. I had that idea when I first saw the box, but having both models I decided it‘d look too „meh“ and would not be worth the effort.
  8. Aos First reveal: Lumineth, 40k 8.5 Edition second reveal: Umbraleth (Malerion’s Aelves)
  9. @Kaime Take 3-6 vargheists and hide the vampire behind their wings (valid way of blocking line of sight). i quite often use a Vamp on foot or on horse and they‘ve never let me down.
  10. I remember now! thx! ^^ Edit: those rules are no longer available
  11. I‘d wish this was possible though I can see a major issue for all our ordinary bone boys: It‘d be way more effective for Nagash to simply melt all Skeletons into Bonereapers instead of having a Skeleton Army.... 😢
  12. Imo it is more of a list tbh. Though the highest up would be my pick: Stardragon - Huge cool model with no damage output at all. Feels like fielding a heavy cotton ball. This guy needs a melee damage potential of at least a Carnosaur mount to be viable (the Tauralon has quite a same-ish issue). _______ Liberators - Simply too weak in every regard + Edit: I‘d love to see more dynamic poses (kneeling, jumping etc.) and weaponoptions (spears/glaives?) for them as well. How about a Sigmarite Shield Wall ability? -Increases the armor by 1 when they didn‘t move or charge in the last movement phase. - As Long as the Champion is alive: Fulminating discharge: -1 rend when they charged. At a hit roll of 6 that attack gains -1 rend and +1 dmg (not cumulative with the charge effect) _____ Namartii - They just don‘t work due to design flaws (Range, Bravery, synergies) Namartii fix: +1 attack vs enemies with 2 or less HP. +1 damage vs enemies with 3 or more hp. ____ Soulrender- One Designflaw Soulrender additional rule: Namarti gain +1“ range while they‘re wholly within 16“ of a Soulrender. The soulrender also benefits from this effect if there is a Namartii unit wholly within 16“ of him. ____ Glaivewraith Stalkers - I Love the models but they don‘t do anything 3 stages of bonuses: At the start of the game chose a unit for each Glaivewraith Stalker unit on the field, at the beginning of each shooting phase consult the table below for each unit and apply the effect, these effects are not cumulative: 18“ or more inches away from the target -Stalking: add 4“ to this Units movement characteristics wholly within 12“ of the target- The thrill of the hunt: pick one unit that has any models that this unit has passed over. Roll a dice for each model of this unit that passed over the picked unit, on a roll of 4+ that unit suffers 1 mortal wound, on a roll of 6+ that unit suffers D3 mortal wounds. wholly within 6“ of the target - Murderous frenzy: every unmodified hit roll of 6 made by models in this unit deals D3 MWs and the attack sequence ends _____ Chaos Warriors & Knights - they feel like heavily armoured peasants, not warriors. Just add rend 1 for 6s to hit...or weapon options like the liberators have. edited with suggestions.
  13. Hello! I know there is a random Army Generator in the GHB 2019. since I am at my girl friend’s home I can‘t get home to my books (thx Corona...) so I can‘t use the GHB rules to play with her. So I wanted to know if there‘s any random army generator on the web? (I couldn‘t find any and I‘ve been searching for quite a while) cheers jack
  14. Same! though I am still having fun with this book. I guess a simple points update or FAQ which loosens up some restrictions (heroes for mark abilities) will fix this. Archaon is very good for his points. Currently we suffer from overcosting and too many restrictions which puts us at a handicap while being outnumbered and outdamaged. =}
  15. I‘ll add a horn to one of these warriors belt and the musician will be done =} : i am wondering about the wording though: can a model in a Chaos Warrior unit be the champion, musician and bannerbearer at the same time? 🤔
  16. Four Units can do it: Mammoth, Archaon, 40 Marauders and a Karkadrak with a -2 rend artefact on his axe. most of our damage comes from the Nurgle and his battallion. Sadly all of the rest is lacking. 😕
  17. Perhaps a Stonehorn-Mutalith Kitbash with some Greenstuff?
  18. BBC News - 12:16, 19th of March 2020: “Games Workshop, the World leading producer of miniatures and games, and creator of the popular „Space Marine“ franchise has been performing well despite of the Covid-19 epidemic. All of their retail shops within Europe had to shut down during the development of the crisis, yet their losses were dampened by a rise of online sales, as our sources claim. The company seems to be a rare exception in these demanding times and overall Games Workshop seemed to be fine, until this morning, when dramatic events unfolded: Due to a lack of workers and the pressure to keep the production going one employee accidentally overheated one of their machines, used for the production of plastic miniatures and caused a fire. Too late the fire was discovered, so it spread throughout the entire factory complex engulfing everything in flames. Yet the situation somehow got worse as a so called „Warpgate“ manifested right above the second production facility, demanding „Blood for the Blood God and Skulls for the Skullthrone“ - the perplexed firefighters and employees did not meet the Warpgate‘s demands in time it seems. A few more seconds passed then the Gate vomited forth a torrent of burning blood, incinerating the second factory building. In the meantime winged creatures charged out of the gate towards the GW headquarters. The mostly winged creatures fly out of the Gate in such numbers, that even the ground started shacking, just to be ripped asunder and burned alive by massive beams of lightning raining down from the skies until the Headquarter was surrounded by hulking gilded figures shouting out a Greek letter. „Sigma!“ was echoed a thousandfold by each golden hone - as a shocked worker told us. We had a chance to talk to the Lead Game Designer Jarvis Johnsson who only hastily answered with one cryptic Sentence: „I hope these Sigmarites don‘t roll as many ones as I do when I play them“! - He then continued, with renewed vigour, to hastily write down notes into an archaic leather-bound book“. Keep up to date with our live ticker. - All of this is Fake News, I just had to make at least a few people smile in these times 😃
  19. It hasn‘t been produced by GW. GW only granted a license.
  20. Just buy such boxes via the official GW Store if you were going to buy it from a GW directly anyways
  21. Yes he does since he becomes eligible to be picked to fight once an enemy is within 3“
