I'd like the give the FW a go but there two very big saggy obvious reasons I don't like that mini (I tend to play AoS with my kids so...).

I can totally get not liking that mini, but in my experience kids are a lot less likely to make a fuss about stuff like that than adults. To them, it's likely just gonna be *shrugs*.

Yeah, Clan Pestilens is the new DoK, it seems. Those monks really are insane.

If you are playing BCR you ain't innit to win it

Ain't that the truth.

Still, I think those rules needlessly boost armies that have easy access to casters (who are already favoured due to scenarios like Places of Arcane Power), and severely disadvantages others.

and even though Patrol was nerfed to the ground it is still one of the best battalions for us

I would agree (Ghoul Patrol or Royal Family), but the real question is: do we still despeartely need a battalion, or rather are we willing to pay so much for that?
Still not sure about that ...

Congrats on the result, though.

Is that your way of combining Bill Souza and Ben Johnson into one FEC super-person?

Pretty cool idea actually.

It's definitely an awesome boost to FEC with all their wizards ...
Not sure if armies like BCR will find that houserule just as great.

I also think perhaps one so focused on characters would be hard against alpha strike armies

Are there any hard shooting alphas at 1000 points? 'Cause against melee alpha that list should be able to insulate itself with ghouls and throne.

I think BoC won, and FEC came second, no?

- Trait: Bringer of Death 

For a Gristlegore Court, your trait needs to be Savage Strike.

Also, did you happen to play in Shyish, or did you get all the spells just because you hail from there?

[AoS 2 - Flesh-eater Courts Discussion]

But then, the GKoZD is the only only who can give you Malefic Hunger, which is really awesome, so I'd also run TG & ZD instead of 2 TGs, just to get that spell, too.

was wondering if anyone had any recent experience with it

At CanCon, one of the top players ran that combination, but I don't know how well he did (Liam something, iirc). Wasn't in the top ten, that could have had any number of reasons, though.

Does anyone have any thoughts on running a Branchwych bomb setup with that, instead of Cogs/Geminids etc?

Usually done with Balewind Vortex & the Portals. Could throw in that Sylvaneth item, from the Harvestboon battalion I think, to get extra range (wouldn't be Gnarlroot then, though, obviously ... ^^), but I think that's almost overkill.

Apart from usually one Varghulf, yes, it's SC or CE all the way ...

And I don't know if I should build crypt horrors or crypt flayers.

That only yourself can answer - both can be great (in the right list), and you can also do without both of them.

Total noob question. Is it a bad idea to take a Crypt Horror or Flayer courtier as your general just to unlock the battleline units? Especially Gristlegore which seems to have a really nasty command trait thing with the hitting first in combat. Just because mounted ghoul kings seem so great.

Yes, in Gristlegore that would be bad call and a waste. Everywhere else, where you can distribute traits freely, not so much ...

Is there any reason to have a hag queen on the cauldron?

There is if you can't afford both the slaughterqueen on throne and a separate hag. Also, the bigger base size makes it easier to keep things in the buff aura.

Either you click the little button underneath each post that says 'Quote' or you select the relevant part and then a little button with 'Quote selection' appears next to it.

I found +1 to prayers more preferable.

Well, I guess if looking for Great Plagues, +1 is better, but from a reliance point of view to get prayers off, rerolls are even better (albeit, not by much).

Cast once Noxius and twice Plague?

From RAW, this.

And it might not seem like a lot of benefit, but THEN I realized that with the Master of Rot and Ruin, that PP could potentially throw six dice at prayers every round (could also reroll successful ones, if he wanted), thus quickly (statistically in the first turn) triggering a Great Plague and getting Neverplague, which is gonna be really nice if you happen to have a second (or even more) Furnaces ...

For me, even this niche case would probably worth it, because being able to reroll prayers for all Furnaces throughout the game is gonna be really nice.
