  1. Imo it should not be hard to make any army decent, flavorful. The same goes for warscrolls. Most people ask for nothing more. Instead we get a mess that easily could have been avoided. Putting out half baked rules, without a clear goal in mind is no longer timely. Especially since much smaller companies create way more engaging, fun, solid and interesting rules than GW. Yet let‘s be honest: GW mostly operates like a patriarchal, conservative business out of the 80s
  2. The quality is all o er the place, as it has always been since WHF. It’s frustrating to me that whenever a new book or model is about to drop one has to fear that the warscroll(s) might be utter garbage. Why is this the case? They have the resources, the manpower and the experience to guarantee that every Warscroll should be fine. Yet this is not the case. It‘s honestly a disgrace. How can a Warscroll like Black Knights be made and no one realizes that it‘s rubbish until it is too late? GW‘s rule designers are no school boys writing rules for fun, they are professionals. So HOW can such nonsense as bad Warscrolls still exist!? As a customer I expect a high quality product. This includes the design AND the content, especially since their rules are expensive and GW is one of the last companies that actually charges a premium for rules.
  3. Get screening units and spells/ranged threats that will clear enemy units. Also make sure you can heal him or make him tougher to kill with a prismatic palisade and all that. - Build around him. Edit: About the Slaanesh Twins they will really suffer even from very light shooting. How weak is Slaanesh when his offsprings are about as powerful as two Chaos Lords piggybacking. I‘d even argue that a KoS is stronger? 😂
  4. You don‘t need that. He kills, that‘s all Destruction wants, isn’t it?
  5. Oh boy this threat is fuming with disappointment I haven‘t seen Alarielle‘s Scroll, her 740 points might be justified? I also think that Kragnos is worth 760 tbh. You‘ve got to build around him so he can go on a rampage. If his points were lower he‘d be a no brainer.
  6. And what happens if a rule kills him instantly? That case isn‘t covered by his rules
  7. I like lost no. 1. I believe there‘s an issue with list no. 2.: Once the 20 GG and the Zombie Dragon are gone you lose the ability to kill key targets and the army will crumble. Maybe try to squeeze in 5 Blood Knights or another 20 GG?
  8. Take photos. E-Mail GW and you‘ll receive a new box without any issues.
  9. I disagree. I teach 3D Sculpting and I have a resin printer: It‘s really nice for bits and one or two custom models. Yet creating an entire unit takes way too much time to be considered being better than simply buying from GW. Even if you simply get models from a Patreon, those models might be nice, yet GW‘s designs are somewhat unique and their IP and worlds are strong. I am following 3 Patreons and I get a ton of awesome models each month for about 30 €/month. Yet I consider those to be cool DnD models and nothing more. They don‘t scratch the same itch GW does. speaking of 3D printing: I am considering to design Terrain that would go well with Radukar the Beast‘s base: An old mossy dark wood with lots of broken and dead trees 🤔, rocky plateaus etc. I only have to make those useful in an AoS game
  10. I like how they look: Mean. They appear to be the non-goofy, truly evil and cunning part of destruction.
  11. The new Gobbos can be seen in the video I think since the Stormcast wears the new armour
  12. That would make them worth taking over Vampires. Or simply improve the Reanimation Roll of skellies by 1 as aura. the mounted one could simply add +1 damage to black knights in the same manner as a Warchanter works for orruks.
  13. Summarized: 3ed Launch Box name: Dominion New Faction Name: Krul Boyz Name of one unit: Hobgobs Hobgobs are crafters of Metal stuff. They trade with chaos dwarves. Leader: Big Boss-esque dude riding a messed up Squiq-Pig-Wolf-Thing Also: Some kind of Gnorblar stirring a pot
  14. In my experience you will need at least one block of Zombies or Skeletons to soak up the damage and hold the enemy in place. Then you can make your more elite units shine.
  15. Judging by the rumours so far the new Destruction faction’s heads either consist of Living Tikki Masks or the army has at least a unit with those masks as heads.
  16. Yes! I'll add another list based on Vargheists as well
  17. Some Midnight Legion of Night list-brewing with Mannfred von Carstein: Changing topics: I just realized that Lauka Vai looks so much more coherent without her hip armor! (image taken from here) I am grrowing to like the model I guess
