Must be that kind of freedom where you allow some kind of shadowy entity to dominate your entire life, but at least you don't have to pay taxes.
Or worship Sigmar - WE BARBARIANS DO NOT LIKE barbarian THUNDER GODS

I got some value out of it once or twice, but I feel it fails a lot more than it succeeds. The timing is just kinda tricky: Since you only roll to consecrate an objective in your own movement phase, it does nothing for you if you get alpha'd. And when I don't get alpha'd, I usually have the Zenestra ward up instead.
I wish the rule was just "6+ ward on objectives you control while Steelhelm warpriests contest them".
that's what it should have been. Currently it adds even more mental load and an uneccessary dice roll.

Bre tt onia is just the German version

Btw. That smith Darkoath looks heavily inspired by the mandalorian smith

with their 6+ ward self buff
15 CoS games in I haven’t succeeded A SINGLE ROLL FOR THAT ABILITY. I brought Steelhelms in every single game and had them on objectives for several turns each.

Imo in this case A souldestroyer gun equals a setting destroyer gun since not even demons are safe - it’s also a level of power not even gods can achieve.
I‘d rather them to not go down that rabbit hole

Varghulf
speaking of Varghulfs. My Varghulf never does anything, it doesn't even have stomps X_x

They are the best, because You can take them in core. They are also great vs T3/T4 units. But T5 and monsters...they are lacking here very hard. I charged 16 of them with a single varghulf. and they all died. for real. But a great unit overall.
Mine shredd monsters due to poison + Har Garneth Banner (-1 Rend). So I'd even argue they excell vs T4+ due to poison

Good to know a khaine list is still viable, it was my go to list in the last days of 8th Ed.
Imo Wyches are the best unit in the entire book. They’re also the only non-monster melee unit that packs a punch, the whole rest has too little attacks to do anything (including Black Guards)
idk about Sisters of Slaughter - they don’t have poison and they have less attacks while being absurdly expensive. I‘d argue they’re just bad. Executioners are plainly overcosted imo.
The Hydra and the Kharibdyss are solid.
-
Tabled the Lizardmen after getting all my Executioners and my Sorceress shredded by arcane missles. So I won’t know if Executioners are worth it
He had his Slann left who he ket flee off the board on purpose
the Kharabdyss was solid, witches were brutal the (basically 3) bolt throwers (2 reapers + chariot) killed 2 krixigors, 4 Cold one Knights, a Stegadon with Skink and dealt 3 wounds to a bastiladon - super solid when one can place them on a wood!
Lizardmen really struggle against the high initiative of Elves.
Cauldron: This thing is just weird, in the last turn it basically couldn’t move due to only being 6 Wyches left. It’s just odd and clunky. The bound spell is bad (since everyone brings a lv 4 wizard). Idk if I‘ll add it again or if I‘ll just add another 10 Wyches/Executioners.
after this image I killed the Temple Guard, reformed. he charged his monsters, killed my wyches. I charged and killed the Dkinks + Bastilladon. His monsters were shot.
he had killed 787 points of mine. 570 of them in shooting (spells and Javelins)
All magical Vortexs in the game did nothing and either stayed on the spot or scattered away from enemies. (They never seem to do anything in every game xD)

You do strike first and all you need is one 6 on the to wound roll with the dragon slaying sword.
He has a 4+ ward so a 50% chance to survive.
I‘ve had (summed up) 16 wound rolls with monster slayer and didn’t score a dingle 6 🥲 (when I first fought that thing with two Bretonnian Blender-Lords)
Speaking of cheese: he places a cheap hero right behind one of his fighting units (block of skeletons) which stops them from giving ground and creates an endless grind in his favor.
There‘re some abusive builds with Khemri (already) which are incredibly hard to deal with.
@KingKull works against me as he will overkill that champ and my units will give ground and be prone to counter charges with big skeleton blocks which will bind them for the entire game.
His army is by no means invincible it’s just dripping with cheese
-
@Ogregut sadly the list would not work. Due to the rules for issuing a challenge he‘d pick off the dragons one by one.

Was a hard matchup. I would have lost easily.
The lack of monster slayer makes life hard for Dark Elves.
I faced a Tomb King on Dragon (4+, 4+, 5+) -> completely immortal
a Necrosphinx, two Scorpions, a Giant, 2 Blocks of Skeletons, each with a Necrotect, one mage Lv4 (hieropant), one mage lv 1, and a tomb prince
I can’t deal enough damage to deal with the skeletons, my DE dragon has no chance to kill his, even after killing the Hierophant nothing crumbles due to the King‘s LD 10 bubble.
Every skeleton unit is an elite unit with hatred and +1 attack. And he heals on top of it all while 3 units have both killing blows. It’s not easy to get rid of the Necrotects as well.
It’s savage honestly no clue what to do about it as DE except for spamming Witch Elves and pray
Any ideas?

I always satin varnish to make the color more resistant to friction.
Edit: Yet the red of my Chaos Warrior‘s cloak tips rubs off all the time x_X

I used to run my infantry 6 wide and units of 18. Not sure whether that still works now or not?
Actually 6-8 wide seems to the new go-to.

Disappointing, hopefully after all the launch factions get their day in the sun we'll see some kislev and Cathay
Pretty sure that’s the opposite of what they’ve claimed at the beginning (at least for Kislev)

Still imo such a weapons nullifies the entire setting by defacto being more powerful than the gods and even being able to permanently kill Deamons, Gods and just everything.
