    Really, the Seraphon should have weird celestial tech (in the way that the skaven have some wyrdstone stuff) instead of this primitive stuff. It really makes no sense. But I guess they want to keep it this way for old world reasons.

    Actually if you look at the new models, you have things like that : the saurus' shields for instance, or the Astrolith bearers and even some of the weapons with esoteric lines. And there are 2 types of Seraphons : the stellars that, indeed, should have this celestial tech (and I think with the appropriate painting you perfectly can give that aspect) and the cristallized that have more or less return too a sort of beast level : I think the new models can perfectly represent both ;)

    I mean there are points for a model that hasn't been released, that's what makes me say that, otherwise I would 100% agree with you!

    That is the reason why I think you could be right... But I keep thinking that is just a mistake, or maybe it is because we'll have a box such as Echoes of Doom with the new hero and that box will come one or two month before the BT (which means august, so closer to GHB release) : then I understand why the model's name appear in the GHB

    I do really wonder why Lumineth have gotten bigger points decreases than Slaanesh...

    Where are Slaanesh points ? Can't find them...

    That's the new points from the upcoming Battletome most likely.

    Not sure... The upcoming BT is for Automn, so... maybe october or the end of september but not before. I'm not sure GHB give points correpsonding to new warsrolls coming 3 or 4 months later... But maybe you're right ^^

  4. It seems very strong but before saying it is too strong, we'll have to see how many units can be in the battalion giving +1 damage vs all troops, same thing about the one to count as 3 models when scoring. And that also means we'll have to do choices between the number of poses, the second artefact, thoses battalions, etc.

    Some sylvaneth stuffs

    The dragonflies move really fast and hit like a truck. They are a bit fragile so you want to use the teleport ability to help protect them.

    Kurnoth hunters are great, all types.

    Woods still have some stuff with Los blocking and owning the actual kit is still beneficial Vs just using the overgrown rule.

    Tree revs can still deepstrike.

    The whole philosophy is to make the sylvaneth a lot more dynamic rather than just sitting in the woods. Think skirmishers that attack fast and then vanish.

    Skaven 

    I don't really know or care much, but die hard players should be happy. 

     

    GHB

    Nighthaunt and DoK are going to really benefit. Don't be surprised if BoC continue to rise to the top too.

    There aren't really any big losers, but a lot of those monsters that were borderline inclusions in lists might drop out. 

    Horrifying realisation bonus 

    IDK exist just to stop the shooting meta ever becoming too powerful. Because if a gun line army starts to go above 60% then IDK will rise up to counter them. 

    Quite interesting : can’t wait to see synergies, spells and warscrolls for Sylvaneth. It seems they really understood the DNA of the army (just like NH !)

     

    Interesting too concerning IDK : even if it is a very good anti shooting army, it’s also a very interesting and rewarding army on its own…

    I‘ve already seen people complain about her warscroll, maybe we can preemptively call her „lady of whines“. I‘ve also got some unrelated material to contribute! 😎👍🏻 

    Pfffff... We don't have allegiance abilities, we don't know the new synergies, we have new stuff, a new character that seems really interesting with usefull spell and abilities, quite good stats BUT it's not perfect (10 wounds, no nativ ward) so... COMPLAINING

    Sorry, just a bit annoyed by people that are ALWAYS complaining ^^

    Box up for preorder next week! That was a fairly quick turnaround, hopefully we can expect the book soon too.

    For Idoneth/FS and DoK/NH books were for preorder a month and a half after the box so wait and see

    In the new books warscrolls like hers don't have that line of text on the warscroll, instead its in the spells section in the tome.

    But in Morathi’s warscroll that leaked, there is that line on the warscroll. So it would be strange if it was not the case concerning Alarielle 

  9. Concerning Alarielle, I think the only nerf is that she will not knowthe whole lore : in the new Morathi’s warscroll, thé fact that she knows all spells is mentionned.

    Or it is a GW’s mistake but I don’t think so. But the rest of the warscroll is, I think, better so it’s not a big deal ;)

    Some Lady of Vines rules I got from the Sylvaneth whatsapp group:

    - 2+ once per game summon 10 dryads.

    - Units wholly within 6" count as in Forest.

    - Her spell give a ward of 5+ wholly within 12"

    If it’s true I find that interesting. 
    The summon is always very good, the spell seems golden (but wait and see concerning casting value : if it is for one unit, the effect is a bit worse than Protection of Hysh, and if it’s a bubble the lady’s spell is better, keeping in mind casting value of Protection of Hysh is 8+…)

    The count as Forest ww 6 is maybe a bit short to be efficient, but it will depend on which type of units benefits from that And what are the bonus (but combo Durthu + lady could be awesome !)

    so both auras getting reduced to 12" and not affecting mounts seems like pretty significant nerfs.. namarti spam seems to be the new idoneth indeed

    Ok concerning the size of the aura, but Volturnos’ ability works on mounts ;)

    And if I read correctly, Eidolon’s ability against heroes is buffed : depends on the points, but maybe the model will not be that bad ;)

    My LRL teclis idea:

    Zaitrec
    Teclis: 660
    Scinari Cathallar: 140
    20 Wardens: 240
    20 Wardens: 240
    20 Wardens: 240
    10 Sentinels: 140
    10 Sentinels: 140
    Soulscream Bridge: 80
    Auralan Legion: 120
    2000pts

    101 Wounds, 2 Drops, 82 bodies
     

    With this list you have 3 drops : in Auralan Legion Battalion, you can pick 2-4 Sentinels, and an equal amount of wardens : you're third warden unit cannot be in your battalion... (I work on a quite similar list ^^)

    I think it's" visible to the caster, halve the move characteristic until the end of the hero phase, then roll a dice. if the roll is equal to or greater, than that units move characteristic, that unit suffers D3 mortal wounds"

    Which sounds like a great spell. you can kneecap a unit of Mortek guard, and then pour salt on the mortal wound! 

    Maybe "until your next/the next hero phase"
