  1. Oh ****** you’re right yeah it was only one that’s the wrong draft
  2. Won my first game with Tempest Eye today! Beat back the filthy khazakidum of Slaanesh. I'll put the list at the bottom. Here's my thoughts: Celestial Hurricanum is BONKERS and absolutely an autoinclude. Pray to Valaya that they don't FAQ the portents of battle to be "wholly within 10" because +1 to hit for all units within 10 is awesome, Storms of Shemtek did major work on two Keepers of Secrets. Hammerers are also wicked good, a unit of 30 chewed through 5 hellstriders, two chariots, and finished off a KOS. Ironbreakers didn't do as well as I'd hoped, but maybe it's because I rolled terribly. Positioning with this army is going to be so key. I gambled with putting the irondrakes within 3" of the front line of breakers so they could shoot down an Epitome on turn one, but I paid for it when the KOS reached over and took out 10 with two hits. I've been contemplating using ten grundstock thunderers with their 18' reach and if you want to get some shots off on turn one, 16'" didn't really cut it. This army played like I wanted it to but it definitely leans into the deathball and I realized very quickly that I didn't have any units with a move of more than 2D6. Gotta bring some copters next time. Luckily I ended up being able to run the 5 remaining ironbreakers onto the third objective (Total Conquest.) My List: General: Runelord (trait: reroll ones to wound for shooting), artefact: the one that gives you a CP on 4+ Runelord Warden King Hammerers 30x Ironbreakers 20x Irondrakes 20x 10x Longbeards 10x Longbeards Thunderers I mean Freeguild Gunners 20x Steam Tank Hurricanum With Battlemage (Aura of Glory) 2000/2000
  3. I also would like an answer to this because i'm gonna get either a frigate or a clad to go with my one hauler and not sure which
  4. that's a great idea. Would the handgunners get to shoot before or after a Mawcrusha does his Destructive bulk?
  5. I am also extremely excited and plan to be incorporating some KO airships into my army, since they benefit from the buffs. I've never played KO before so which do we think gives the most bang for their buck? Also wondering about what we think are the best ranged unit options. We have: 20x Freeguild Handgunners: M5 6+ SV, 19 shots at +4, 3+, -1, 1, 1 shot at 30" 4+, 3+, -1, 2or 3+ of they don't move, and get to fire overwatch - 200 pts 20x Irondrakes - M4, 4+ SV, 19 shots if moved or 39 shots if still, 3+ / 3+ / -1 / 1 with 1 or 2 at 3+, 3+, -2 D3 - 300pts OR i realized that 10x Grundstock Thunderers are a great deal too: if all rifles, M4, 4+ sv, 22 shots at 18" at 3+ 4+ -1, 1 for only 180pts my starting list right now looks like Warden King 110 Runelord 90 Hurricanum with Mage 280 20x Ironbreakers 20x Longbeards 30x Hammerers 20x Irondrakes 300 20x Freeguild Guard 200 which comes to around 1800 pts or so...not sure what to use final 200 points for. Steam tank? Endrinriggers + gyrocopter? Organ gun i mean hellblaster volley?
  6. I love these ideas and I’m so happy to get a chance to incorporate some KO into my army without having to go all in
  7. I love I LOVE this idea. I'm fluffing my free city as a majority duardin fortress called Khazad Dal-Valai, founded to be a safe haven in the wilds of Ghur. The city keeps a strong airforce of gyrocopters and kharadron airships to cover ground quickly and keep the beast population in the surrounding areas in check. Unusually hospitable for dwarves, the worship a half-remembered conception of the old goddess Valaya and believe that someday she will return to be Sigmar's consort, who they also venerate. I'm gonna get some kharadron airships and run them with steam tank rules XD or i might just run them as airships with Tempest Eye rules, haven't decided yet.
  8. So I have an absurd idea for a list I want to try and I'd like some feedback. Do you think this could work at all or am I an idiot? The idea is to keep Dark Mist on Nagash and have him be an attacking powerhouse with immunity to rend, rerolling saves of one, with -1 to hit. GRAND HOST OF NAGASH Extra Command Point Leaders: Nagash 850 Neferata 380 Cairn Wraith (Aetherquartz Brooch) UNITS Chainrasp 40x 280 Dire Wolves 70 Dire Wolves 70 Dreadscythe Harridans 15x 240 TOTAL 2000/2000
  9. I am absolutely going to run my thunderers as freeguild handgunners and run the warriors as...something else and im going to stick a dwarf in my steam tank and I dare anyone try to stop me it really sucks they boned us like this but the resilience of the dawi will win out in the end yeah that was extremely uncool but I'm turning my dragon princes into blood knights
  10. then why why why WHY would you call it a legion and fluff it like it is????
  11. I am super psyched about getting into Legion of Blood and just ordered a Bloodseeker Palanquin. Looking at this list right here, what should I use the extra 100 points for? LEADERS BS Palanquin 300 Neferata 380 VLOZD 440 VL with Wings 140 BL: 3 10x Chainrasp Court Battalion 150 and 5x Bloodknights which puts me at 1850.
  12. I've been having a hard time coming up with ME lists for LOB because of how much of a drop in power it is for skellies at such small numbers. Perhaps chainrasps would be better, because they can reroll ones to wound, immune to rend, and can still be activated for Van Hels? I won an ME last week with the following list: Spearhead Vamplord, flying horror, ameythstine pinions dire wolves 5x MAin body: Vamp Lord on Zombie Dragon, Aura of Dark Majesty, Ethereal Amulets, Pinions Skeletons 10x Dire wolves 5x Rearguard: 5x blood knights
  13. Are you still looking for a high elf dragon? I have an unpainted one I’m trying to sell for a very reasonable price
  14. I was extremely excited for LoG when it first came out but now I'm just so frustrated with GW's lazy, half assed rules writing. Why don't we get access to any battalions at all? Why would you give Lady Olynder a legion and then block her from being taken by locking the key piece of it (the -2 bravery command trait) behind taking a random unnamed hero? Why are all the artifacts just variations of "do 1 (ONE!!!) mortal wound after meeting these requirements? I played a game last night against new IronJawz and got absolutely destroyed. I had all my squishy heroes behind a line of 40 chainrasps and it still didn't matter; he charged across the table with his insane +4 to charge, fired off 4 WAAGHs and gave his ard boys 7 attacks each, hitting on 2s, rerolling 1s to wound, and they just chewed through them like butter. Course I was rolling god-awfully but I don't know what I could have done to stop it
  15. What's your allherd list look like, if you don't mind?
  16. If this will let me play dwarf +ironweld soup competitively and fluff my own Karak I will be so happy
  17. ok this is the list I have concocted and list of Stuff To Buy, please let me know how you think it'll go Bray-Shaman Doombull Beastlord Dragon Ogor Shaggoth 20x Bestigors 10x Bestigors 10x Ungors Ghorgon Cygor Chaos Gargant 3x Dragon Ogors Brass Despoilers Wildfire Taurus 1990/2000
  18. So after some wheeling and dealing I have ended up with this starting army Doombull Brayherd Shaman Brayherd Shaman 20x Bestigors 2x Ghorgon/Cygors Chaos Gargant Endless Spells If I'm planning to paint them red and run them as Khorneskins, what is my next step from here? 10x more Bestigors probably, right? Small units of Ungors or Gors?
  19. Just to make sure, I can take a Herd allegiance AND the Khorne Battalion, right? Do people like the Khorne battalion?
  20. Guys, I'm torn between BoC and FEC. Can someone give me a quick run-down on how the BoC faction plays (keeping in mind I don't have any other chaos) and in general how is the faction doing these days? Or can someone link me to somewhere it's already been written? thanks
  21. Fellow bonemunchers, post armies! I am torn on what scheme to paint my court. I'm thinking about maybe a gray and purple shyishan tinge or red and purple to go with my Nagash? Help me with some ideas!
  22. With the addition of the 6 mortal wounds to LON terrorgheist do you think it’ll be worth it to take them now?
  23. Hello fellow corpse-eaters, I’m gonna be picking up a carrion empire half next week and wondering what are good builds to work up to? I don’t want to do gristlegore lol, what non-behemoth builds are people into these days?
  24. I do both, it's super fun. and I do recommend getting the newer, more expensive models if only because they are gorgeous models and look so cool painted up. this is absolute ******
