  1. Enlightened always do more damage than Bullgors when using the clip-charge trick behind a screen.
  2. Enlightened are the hardest-hitting and arguably best unit in Beasts of Chaos at the moment. Skyfires are also very good, despite the nerf to their shooting. Summon Bestigors, Ungors, Raiders, Centigors, Warhounds, or Chariots depending on the situation.
  3. Gors kind of suck right now. Bestigors hit harder, and Ungors fill the horde and chaff roles much better. But I'm hoping that if GW has any sense then they will do something about the points to make Gors more attractive in GHB 2019. I would build one as a Cygor for variety. You probably wouldn't want to run 3 Ghorgons in a list anyway. Cygor is overcosted at the moment but I hope GW will fix his points in GHB 2019 as well.
  4. Killing off Tomb Kings and Bretonnia was dumb and just upset the fanbase. They should have just incoporated the models into larger factions, like Bretonnia into Free Peoples.
  5. Yeah Allherd is very good in low points games; I took them to a 1250 point tournament a couple months ago with Desolating Beastherd and Aetherquartz Brooch for extra CP, and got 3 wins, 2 draws. The artefact is trash so just stick it on whatever hero and don't invest any points into it (e.g. don't bother taking a Beastlord or Doombull).
  6. I'd much prefer games set in the Old World than AoS, personally.
  7. Also, the guy was asking about running Brass Despoilers in Blades of Khorne so he can't take Mutating Gnarlblade.
  8. Why would you want to omit the Beastlord from the Battalion?? There's really no reason for it. Having the Beastlord in the battalion doesn't prevent you from equipping him with the Gnarlblade.
  9. I doubt it since he lacks the mortal/bloodbound/daemon keyword. Probably need to give him a realm artefact instead.
  10. No. You can't pick artefacts outside of your allegiance and realm.
  11. If you're running them in Beasts of Chaos, I'd say Tzaangor Shaman, Shaggoth, Bray Shaman, Enlightened (on foot or disc), Skyfires, Tzaangors, Bestigors, Ungors, Ungor Raiders, Centigors, Dragon Ogres. Then for filler or specialized purposes you can find the following useful in certain lists: Razorgors, Warhounds, Chariots.
  12. Shaman isn't necessary though. Bestigors are already fast thanks to run+1 and charge. And Bloodstoker can buff their charge as well.
  13. You can't put wizards in your list with Brass Despoilers, so that's not an issue...
  14. Maybe Brass Despoilers from Beasts of Chaos will be more attractive now? Bestigors are very quick (especially if you ally in a Shaman buffing their movement) and do good damage. Also, Daemonettes really hurt the Bloodletters as well, since they force rerolls of 6 to hit. So looks like Slaanesh is definitely beating Khorne with the units in this box.
  15. Bloodletters are also screwed against Daemonettes, who forces rerolls of 6 to hit. So you will only have a 1/36 chance of triggering the ability per attack. Looks like Slaanesh definitely got the better deal in this box set...
  16. He placed 5th in the Sydney GT with a mixed chaos list, so he definitely knows what he's doing. He also qualified for the Australian Masters tournament this year, but couldn't go because it was his son's birthday.
  17. I believe the guy from Doom and Darkness is taking them to Cancon in January, which will be the biggest AoS tournament ever played.
  18. I'd suggest you drop the Chimera and bring that unit of Enlightened up to 6. Also drop one shaman for a Tzaangor Shaman, since +1 hit is huge and he's the best caster in the army. Lastly, put a defensive artefact like Gryph-Feather charm or Doppelganger cloak on the Shaggoth so he doesn't die in one turn. He doesn't have a great profile for offensive artefacts anyway.
  19. Has anyone had any luck running the Khorne Battalion from Beasts of Chaos in Khorne? Unfortunately Warherd are terrible in Beasts of Chaos due to lack of synergy and the nerf to the Doombull's command ability, so I'm thinking of running them in Khorne.
  20. Once you play a good Daughters of Khaine list you'll realize that they're just better in every way to Pestilens, unfortunately.
  21. You're going to struggle with battleshock in the first few rounds, so probably better to split most of those into 10-man chaff units, with just one or two 40-man units with spears.
  22. Why would you run Dragon Ogres without a Shaggoth? It's like running Enlightened/Skyfires without a Tzaangor Shaman. Even if you're not using Dragon Ogres, Shaggoth is arguably the best hero in Beasts of Chaos, and has the best command trait: Ancient Without Knowing. He's worth taking just for that trait.
  23. Brass Despoilers is a waste on Dragon Ogres since they already get reroll 1's from a Shaggoth.
