  1. Hi guys.

    I have a little local tournament next week (the last one using GHB 2019), and I want to know your opinion of this list. I'm pretty new with Ogors so all help is welcome:

    Allegiance: Ogor Mawtribes
    - Mortal Realm: Shyish
    - Mawtribe: Boulderhead
    LEADERS
    Frostlord on Stonehorn (400)
    - Artefact : Ethereal Amulet
    - Mount Trait : Metalcruncher
    Frostlord on Stonehorn (400)
    - Artefact : Brand of the Svard
    - Mount Trait : Black Clatterhorn
    Icebrow Hunter (120)
    - General
    - Command Trait : Lord of Beasts
    Slaughtermaster / Butcher (140)
    - Lore of Gutmagic : Ribcracker
    UNITS
    6 x Frost Sabres (120)
    4 x Frost Sabres (80)
    12 x Ogor Gluttons (400)
    - Clubs or Blades with Iron Fists
    4 x Ironguts (220)
    BATTALIONS
    Skal (100)
    TOTAL: 1980/2000 EXTRA COMMAND POINTS: 1 WOUNDS: 124
    LEADERS: 4/6 BATTLELINES: 3 (3+) BEHEMOTHS: 2/4 ARTILLERY: 0/4
    ARTEFACTS: 2/2 ALLIES: 0/400

    My main concerns are if a Slaughtermaster/Butcher is any useful in this list, or it would be better to use a Tyrant to give BS immunity to the big gluttons unit, and if it will be better to distribute the Frost Sabers 8/2, 8 in ambush with the hunter and 2 for a little screen or objective holder, instead of 6/4.

    Thank you in advance!

    My two cents goes for new legiones commanded by Vampires and Nagash at OBR with Arkhan. That's not what I want, but that's what I think they will do. 

    Greetings 

    I think the same as you. Maybe LoN is going to reconvert in the "old Vampire Counts" tome with some nice aditions like elite vampire infantry and some model updates like bats and blood knights (this is not going to happen 😂), without Arkgash and improved specific weight for Nef, Mannfred and Vhordrai. They can also rescue big names like Abhorash or Vlad.

    Maybe the Morghast are going to leave too with Nagash and Arkhan.

    I was thinking that since the prince is now only 20 points more expensive than a normal lord and that realm artifacts are not an item anymore there is little to no reason to pick up the vanilla dragon lord unless you are running both him and the prince (although i would rather have neferata or mannfred along with vhordrai)

    The points low of Vhodrai is good news, but he doesn't get the VAMPIRE LORD keyword, so he doesn't benefit of the Legion of Blood damage traits.

    I can't understand why in 2020, GW still doesn't give him that keyword when it's obvious he is THE vampire lord along with Nef and Mannfred.

    Great, thanks for clarifying. The buffs don't stack for the drums however so there's no point in putting 2 in a group of 10. Is says the unit gets plus +2 while it includes any drummer.

    If you want to use different unit sizes in different games is great. I try to maximize always the "special options" for that reason. In a 10 or 20 model unit it's the same because they don't stack, but if you want to use two or four 5-man units in another game you have a drummer ready for each one.

    I think for a unit of 10, it would be 1 leader, 1 drummer, 4 shields, 2 banners and 4 weapons guys. Correct me if I'm wrong. Also, the wording on their warscrolls is strange. Does this mean units of ardboys will come in 5 now?

    Also, does it also mean we can finally put 2 banners per 10 ardboys? The way it's written it says 1 per 5.

    It says 1 drummer in every 5 models. You can put 2 drummers in 10 ardboys. The only limitation 1 model per unit is the boss.

    And yes, you can put the 2 different banners every 10 ardboys.

  6. The thing I like the less is the "moral obligation" of having 2 shields for every 5 ardboyz. That's 1 banner, 1 musician, 2 shields and 1 "normal" (or leader unit) per 5. The unit is going to look WEIRD in caps.

     

    I prefer much more to have choppas or a big choppa on my models, they should have included the rule without the need of putting shields on da boyz :(

  7. Warscrolls updated on the web boyz! We merged into Orruk Warclans category.

    I want to know what is the best weapon loadout for MBMK and gruntas now we have bonus on charge with the hackas... and if Gordrakk is better than the MBMK.

    Hey guys, thanks for the replies. I’ll have to fish out my recipes for you both. Please drop another message in here if I have not done so within the next week to remind me. 

    In other news, I can’t wait to return to the Ironjawz very soon! 💚

    @Chris Tomlin message dropped. But don't be in a hurry, just post it when you can!

  9. Hi guys!

    I sold my old BoC army yesterday and decided to go all in with the IJ with the money!

    I ordered:
    -1 Maw-Krusha
    -2 SC boxes
    -2 Brutes boxes
    -1 Weirdnob Shaman
    -1 Ardboyz boxes + 5 from a vendor for a total 40 Ardboyz counting the 2 SC boxes.

    Did you think is a good starting point for 2k points?

    I will be pleased if anybody can advise me about the best loadout in the different units of the army. Thank you!

    Hello,
    I literally just build the mount from the kit (using Uasalls head as it is much cooler) and was going to ask the same question. After doing some research, it seems that Volturnos shines brighter with his larger range command ability, larger range re-roll ability and the weapon is also very strong. I just prefer the Akhelian King model with the helmet and perhaps spear much more. 
    Could I get away by playing Volturnos with a helmet on if I build rest of the model like Volturnos so I can build either Volturnos or Akhelian king at times? I'd imagine that I wouldn't get away with the spear. Don't want to buy another kit just to play both.

    I'm on the same boat. The problem with the Polearm is that Volturnos doesn't have an option to equip it. And I don't like the head of Volturnos, so I think I will finish using Uasall head and any of the helmet options and play the model as Volturnos or an Akhelian King with Greatsword depending on the list.

  11. Hi everyone.

    I bought the Akhelian King kit some days ago and I have some doubts about the best weapon choice he could get.

    Is there any kind of consensus about the Polearm vs Greatsword choice? Is it better to build him as Volturnos?

    Thank you very much.

  12. Hi everyone.

    With the recent changes to our points, is the Warpseer still the best verminlord option for a mixed/skryre list? I tend to use 60/80 clanrats, 40 monks, screaming Bell, arch-warlock, jezzails, WLC, acolytes/stormfiends, etc.

    Thank you very much!

    the battle-report will follow shortly tomorrow.

    Hi there @Seihoff I might be mighty and wise Gwendar, but I guess he has the same problem with spear as I have.

    well I guess you already know the reason why we don’t use the weapon option on 20rat units of clanrats.

    although they are perfectly fine in a unit of 40.

    there’s just one problem in it though, and will show itself as soon as you loose 11 or more of them do to battleshock or other stuff.

    So in the end you could say that clanrats are a bit better with the knives and swords, since they won’t get so heavily punished for loosing their ranks.

    still a unit with spears can be quit good if you buff them up with gnash gnaw on their bones and other abilities.

    think of how your foe will tremble in fear, knowing that your clanrats are his worst enemy’s.

    That's what I thought, thank you very much!

  14. Hi @Gwendar, I recently started a Skaven Skryre-esque army and I'm in the Blades vs Spears issue for my battleline clanrats.

    You said a few pages ago that you give them full Blades if you could at the moment, did you still think so? I have 3 units, 1x40 and 2x20. I am pretty confident to give that 20-rat units the Blades, but what do you think about the big blob of 40?

    Thanks in advance.
