    what to buy to start?

    in Warcry

    Posted · Edited by Kramig

    Hello! 

    1) are you playing home or at a club/shop? 

    If you play at the local club/shop, you can use mat and scenery from there, you don't need to buy them.
    If you play home, you need a mat and some sceneries. You can buy some kit (mat+scenery) from gw store, or you can make them by yourself. 
    I would suggest you the starter box (150€) only if you find it at its original price (150€, I don't know in $), otherwise it doesn't deserve.

    Anyway, you need to buy 2 books:
    - rulebook: core rules
    - tome of champions: there are updates for cards profile, missions, campaigns, etc.. . This book will be edited each year in December, it is like the general handbook for AOS.

    There is another book, which is "monster and mercenaries". It is not mandatory, but it is interesting if you want to add some mercenary (most are heroes) to your warbands, or you want to play in narrative way using monsters like chimera or giant spider from goblin.

    2) do you like creating by yourself scenery? 

    If yes, you can build sceneries and a mat by yourself

     

     

    There were 2 wave of warband cards release and some realeased in the white Dwarf magazine. 

    First: stormcast vanguard, Legion of nagash, goblin, ironjawz, bonesplitterz, daughters of khaine, idoneth deepkin, skaven, nighthaunt, flesh eater

    Second: ogre, khorne, slaanesh, tzeentch, nurgle, slave to darkness, beast of chaos, sylvaneth, kharadron, ossiarch

    White dwarf: fyreslayer, lumineth (#454)

    Cards of the first wave are now sold out, but you can find them in the book "tome of champions" 

    As far as the second wave of warband is concerned, cards should be still available

    Norse StD ideas and alternatives?

    Hello! 

    I am doing a project similar to your: a chaos army themed ice, snow and darkness 

     

     

    Also, now I am working on marauder viking style. Mierce are the top, they are fabulous! But they are very expensive... So I am converting mine

    I started from kairic acolytes as bodies, while legs come from marauders and head from dwarfs

     

    As far as vikings models are concerned, Victrix are affordable and well done, I too am thinking about them. The size should be right

    However now I bought "blood rage" boxed game and the 5th player expansion: model are awesome!

    The triple of the lady is strong imo

    Cavalry has the usual charge ability

    High sentinel seems meh to me

    Double ability of spearmen is interesting

    Hammers: the only with str4, but mov 3 is too low for elves

    Generally they have low strength; res 4 is middle range; they have not much life points. The cost is not high, but looking at the stats it could be even high...

    I tried this list with interesting results:

    Bloodletters hero

    2 bloodletters 

    2 juggernaut

    2 hounds

     

    Hounds and juggernaut are fast and very tanky, they have many wound and a nice damage. 

    The ability of bloodletters is very random, I would not rely on that

    I think I will try this list:

    Shaman 165
    Bullgor hero245
    1 ungor rider
    2 gor double weapon
    3 bestigor
    1 gor with shield

    Hi all! finally I tried this list in 2 matches: first one against Corvus and second against Daughters.

    Beasts of chaos are a fast and strong warband. The (double) core ability is very good: first turn you can reach 16" of movement! I think the key of their game is moving: you have to think how to move and in which sequence, more than with other warbands.

    Bulls are very strong and tanky, bestigor do a high amount of damage for their cost.

    I liked the rider, however it depends much on lucky

     

    The shaman is very interesting for its weapon (dmg 3/6), the ability is good but not always easy to play.

     

    I liked very much Beasts of Chaos, they are a very interesting and stimulating warband
