Just out of curiosity, since it states in AoS championship only games workshop models are allowed. Does forgeworld count as games workshop? And are there still places at the AoS event available for a few prople. Me and my friends wanna join in

Well I wouldn't be using a roster like that on friendly games but this is strictly competitive for tournaments. Just so I'm sure. Realm spells from aqushy lets say can only be used in the realm of aqushy right? And artefacts all through tournaments (that ofc allow them). On another note to those two command abilities. Now let's say, I'm fighting someone, kill him off, and I am further then 3" from my next target. Do i lose the exalted keepers command? If i can (after my opponent attacks somewhere) pile in from the small keepers ability and then my enemy is still alive, can the exalteds command work.

Rock Lobster You are exacly thinking the good way! Thank You for this interpretation!

Well firsty exalted keepers ability goes of first. Then the smaller one. I understand Your logic tells You "check if the selected unit has piled in twice..." but the words accually aren't phrased like that. Bear in mind keeper of secrets scroll is older then exalteds one! So when the keeper scroll came out, they phrased it the unit can attack twice, not it can attack again.. I for one still don't see any word saying it forbids you from attacking if the unit attacked twice. How to ask GW about this? Just email them? I'll gladly will.

Yep this also was problematic to decide on. The TO didn't know who to back. But it is logical, small keeper of secret has an outdated scroll. The exalted one is a new one. Exalted says that he can attack for a second time, right? What would you like the skill in the small keeper to say? He can attack 3 times? It say's twice not taking into account other abilities or skills. There is not a single word saying if he already did attack twice he therefore cannot attack for a third time! I learned one thing on the tournament if a rule says i can do something, until someone shows me a rule that i cannot specifically do it, im right. Bad example but my opponent says "you cannot add more daemonnetes to your unit over the starting value" (cause of a battleshock test i lost one added 3 or 4)... it says in the banner description add D6 models and thats it. He couldn't prove i'm wrong so i got over the starting units ammount. Backing up to this keeper abilities both say i can attack twice, or for a second time but they don't say "if you attacked 2 times you are prohibited from attacking a third time"

Hehe I'll also add my few cents here. First AoS tournament behind me, played at Time of Heroes at Waylandgames. I started age of sigmar like 2 months ago, so bear with me. Anyhow. Roster: Big keeper, little keeper, herald on exalted chariot , daemon prince, sorc lord and masque. 2x30 daemonettes and 1x hellstriders (these guyz never died, amazing unit). It was pretender host from aqshy. Big keeper had devotee, alure of slaanesh and termalrider cloak. 18"+D6+6" automatic pile in and 2-3 combats in one round is seripusly OP. 1st game vs Seraphon. Realm of aqushy. My enemy had a slaan, engine, oldblood on carnosaur, bestiladon and 1 more dino + few units of saurus and 2-3 veterans on foot. Scenario was relocation orb. My enemy went first, got 3 units of saurus, carnosaur and 1 more dino in the middle. My first turn. Big keeper gets most buff spells on him and uses both his and small keepers command trait. Goes in and kills everything. (That was accually the first time i used him like that... ? He accually can kill everything with aqushy buffs, and sorc lord spell on him. ) after that i just needed a turn to get into the slaan and engine to finish them off.. I did lose the exalted keeper to a bestiladon shot, but after everuthing i had 50+ depravity so i summoned him again. 2nd game was vs maggotkin of nurgle. Snail, harbringer, gutrot, sorc lord on mount and 2x lords of something and 25+ putrid blightlings in units of 10/5/5/5. Scary... all multiwound though . I'm still new to this game, so i thought i can use spells of aqushy even if im not in that realm, same as with artefacts. After the game i found out i cant so I did apologize for it but in the first turn i had burning blades on, and rushed into his full army, blade swinging with my big keeper alone. Outcome was slimax, sorc lord and 7 putrids (from the unit of 10) died. 33 depravity + the ones i got for my opponent returning attacks into my keeper. The scenario was 3 objectives we fought over them in the middle ofthe board, i managed to win cause time for round ended. If it was 2 more turns i would probably lose. 3rd game vs khorne mortals. His roster was 3xpriests, a hero who slays a model on 5+ ( i wanted to kill him before he can start killin my heores) a unit of 5 crazy guyz who make you attack yourself if one of them dies. Lots of chaff and 2 more hard hitting units. My tactic was simple and straightforward. Kill the priests and hero with axe (they were inside the crazies). I went with big keeper guns blazing and killed them and myself :D. Rest of the game was going perfect according to my plan. I had 60+ depravity and a daemon prince, sorc lord and chariot on board. Lost priority... my opponent summoned a bloodthirster near the sorc lord, with the rest of his force got into and killed the chariot and prince. Now it was only will the bloodthirster get 9+ on charge... he got it and all my depravity went to the gutter, cause i didn't have heroes from which to summon anything in, hence i lost :(. Next day 4th game vs karadron overlords. In short: tons of shooting! He went first, shot down my exalted, small keeper and sorc lord. I wanted to just give up (5 objectives on map scenario, karadrons are all together only on 1). In my turn good things happened. 2 deamonette units went into battle and started to slice and dice they're way into victory. Turn 2 was decisive who will get the priority roll - wins. I got it and at one point i felt sorry for my opponent. Luck was so much on my side that on 30 attacks 28 hit and still generate more ? and more... daemonettes just won the game alone ripping those dwarfs (sorry duradin) to shreds. I held all other objectives from turn 2 onwards while daemonettes finished everyone off. 5th game and the hardest one. First table. Oponnent - legions of Nagash. I heared that even if i win, my opponent is around 3000+ above me in smaller victory points. no chance for 1st place at that point! But i didn't give up! Tryed my best for second. His roster was lady vamp and necro in a big unit of graveguards. Second side of table 20x chainghasts (or what are they called hmmm big scythes and a bell) and in the middle of them arkham the black. Middle of the table 440 point etheral vampire on dragon with 3+ save. 2x dire wolfs aswell. We had a scenario with 4 objectives 2 on left 2 on right sides of map. He went first and threw curse of years on 30 daemonettes killing 1 (lucky me). Vampire charged my greater daemon and both of them didn't do nothing. Immortal guy to kill with mystic shield on. No can opener in my army (mortal wounds), so i didn't know what to do with him. Then comes my turn! And i remember something awesome! "My friend, i tempt your vampire!" He rerolls hits of 1, and i roll a dice at the end of combat. On a 6+ i kill him. Guess what happened... yes i ate his soul 1st time ever i used that ability and already worked and saved me. Turn 2 priority is mine and im already under his arkhan/scythe ghost guyz with both keepers chariot and daemonettes. Wiped that side. 2nd-3rd turn he cleared the other side of the table. And game ended with me winning by 1 objective point. ( this opponent had an amazing roster, and frikin summoning an already dead unit back just for one command point is sooo strong!) All in all 2nd place tons of fun, finally played first games in the UK and i love the slaanesh army! Can't wait for the next tournament. This time blood and glory in November! Fun fact. Never had I had a 6 roll for every other roll. Daemonettes every game had so many 6 it's unreal. I think it has something to do with slaanesh number. Oh ye a pick of my roster for laughs:

Hi guys! Quick check if i'm thinking correctly or not. 1st turn combat phase. No charges were declared, my turn. Keeper is within 6" with devotee. Pilles in and attacks. Enemy retaliates? Let's say i kill enemy outright, and from the command ability i go into a second unit, attack it. Does it retaliate or not? And another question. At which point i need to spend my command point for the keepers ability, in his rules it does not say if its hero phase combat phace.

That was my first plan. I already made some sylvaneth on snow bases. The problem is i want my slaanesh army to be from the realm of aqshy snow bases dont work well with this theme. On another note, i love your skin color on the daemonettes. How did You make it?

I know this is more of a rules/gaming topic but nontheless. I'm currently finishing assembling my army. I chose a painting scheme already (mostly pink and purple/ i know nothing original) but i am really looking for a nice base theme for slaanesh. Any ideas how to make nice bases? For hosts?

Enoby! There is a chance i could do that. Tell me though which other malign sorcery spells i could use. Except geminids i don't quite know what would be useful ( not chronomatic cogs)

I personally think realm specific items are better then the ones in GHB 2018. I found a new interesting one. +3" pile in (I don't remember the name). If i think correctly, it stacks with our 6" pile in. So we can accually pile in 9" and attack?! More then once per turn with command points. Or am I mistaken? No one wants to comment on my roster

What would You guyz think about a 2k roster like this: Exalted Greater Daemon + 6" pile in + allure of slaanesh + gryph-feather charm (440) Keeper of Secrets (260) Herald on Exalted Seeker Chariot (160) Slaanesh Daemon Prince (160) Slaanesh Sorcerer Lord (120) Masque of Slaanesh (80) 30x Daemonettes (270) 30x Daemonettes (270) 5x Hellstriders (100) Geminids (40) 2x Command Points 1900/2000

So You mean they cannot then The word play is tricky in this sentence, i played wfb for years, and i thought it works similar to the old frenzy. I understand it like "they must charge if it is physically possible".

Hello again. Another question on my mind. If i take the Seeker host, do all my slaanesh units 'have to' charge when im closer then 12" to the enemy? Even if i run with everything? Or if i run i cannot charge?

Thanks for the reply, I missed it in the core rules then. I'm hoping slaanesh will finally get a new book soon, so I'm just investing in the start collectors box and daemonettes for now.

Hello everyone! I just joined the forums, I'm starting to gather a hosts of slaanesh army. I'll share my roster later on but for now I am looking find out how daemonettes accually work. If they roll a 6+ (5+ if there is 20 or more models) they get an additional attack. Now i looked through the erratas and comentary notes and didn't find any mention if the additional attacks also create more attacks on 6+/5+ or is it one time only for the first attack rolls. Can someone clarify this for me?
