    Stormcast are ok right now. Not great, not really good.

    46% win rate suggests otherwise :)

    Are you kidding me? 80% of warscroll are useless. Today my fully buffed 10 evocators (reroll 1 to hit, reroll full wounds) killed only 5 of 10 heartguards... Combo for 780 couldnt kill unit for 240.

    Kinda sounds like your dice weren't in your favor :D

    More likely, we will see models from new chamber with fancy rules instead. Meanwhile the old warrior chamber will still be left to gather dust on the shelves, with further unnecessary nerf to their rules. Yes, I am looking at you Starsoul Maces.

    SCE Battleforce still sells worse from them all , I hope this shows them they messed up something. And money talks usually.

    erased by Bloodthirsters is not fun.

    If they bring monsters in 1250 point games, you can bring 3/4 ballistas and a lord ordinator, and castle up and shoot them to pieces. Remember a game has 5 turns not only one. But in general be prepared for many more losses as long as you don't agree with your opponent on a certain level of balancing. Good side of this is , it really makes you think more about the game and it's "inner" workings then the 0815 cooky cutter rofl stomp list, and will make you a better general in the long run.

    they might launch with multiple full armies.

    I think they will just do that. Kinda ready made game in a box for two persons. I think they also want to target the people who play the fantasy games on pc or console and ready made boxes would lower the barrier immensely.

    Hey guys,

    I'm supposed to do a rematch against an Ironjaw player pretty soon. Last time we played, it was before the Orruk warclan came out and I won the game.
    But since Orruk got a massive overhaul, I'm not sure that my previous list would as effective.

    He will outdeploy me because his battalions are great, i'm pretty sure he'll bring his beefed up Maw Crusha. So now i'm torn between bringing a list a bit like @Turragor 's but with a Sword of judgment wielding Drake Templar instead of etheral amulets to be able to  deal with his Mawcrusha.
    What do you guys think ?

    I played them twice, what I learned:

    IJ can move / charge or fight in hero phase , if he plays iron sunz you get a -1 to hit in 1st battleround. They also can counter charge on the end of your charge phase.

    Gore Gruntas are super scary,  hit/wound on 2+ on the charge combined with impact mortal wounds , rend 1 and 2 dmg with 2" reach ( screen correct ). So be aware of them. This also means if there are a lot of objectives he will usually control the pace of the game due to this mobility.

    The Cabbage is kinda a coin flip ,  if he catches a unit he usually kills it, so try to avoid that.

    I would try a LCoSD hyperbuffed with Staunch defender and Castellant , and the Mortal wound reflection artifact :) If he is dump enough and go atfter your drake, which will be immune to rend1 more or less, he will probably kill himself pretty fast. Or try to crash the drake in a few units of ard boyz. Kinda a big distraction unit and somehow grab objectives while he is dealing with the drake.

    Kill the warchanter(s) somehow , the +1 damage buff is just nasty.

    After spending last four years playing both 40K and AoS, I simply gave up hopes of GW freeing itself from the vicious cycle of power creep. I instead focus on painting models while having hiatus. Maybe I will start playing again when the new battletome is released.

    This. I also focus more on the hobby aspects for now. Will try my first narrative battle this week :)

    My time is too precious to be wasted on ret***** rule writers. I alos only buy after market at the moment. GW needs to earn my money again.

    Few questions to the more expierienced generals out there:

    1) How do we play against new IJ? They are super mobile, and their damage potential is insane. 

    2) Deployment - Should we always build a castle or spread forces out? If we spread - how to do it without loosing longstrikes asap ( consider @PJetski tips for proper placement applied )

    3) Can Aetherwings use their ability when they are in combat? I thinkk yes but not sure 100%
