  1. Wow, my entire Sacrosanct Chamber force (2500pt army) has gone the way of the squats.

    RIP my entire Stormcast Army. 

    I should make an army burning video, like when Fantasy ended (I never burned one). 

    Full circle.

    Can anyone suggest a good source for movement trays? Im in the US.

    I use warbases.co.uk for movement trays and my mdf bases.

    I am not US based, but in Canada. They are fantastic, and ridiculously fast to get shipped to the great white north from England.

    Oh no! Sorry to hear this. Hope everyone gets healthy or stays healthy!

    Thanks! My daughter and I tested negative, and my wife is feeling better now she is on day 5 of being stuck in our bedroom (days 2-4 were bad she said) while we have run of the house lol. Thank you for your thoughts!

  4. Well since my family is in isolation due to my wife having contracted Covid on her second day back to work from a co-worker, I am taking this time to try to paint my Nurgle theme Slaves to Darkness and finishing up my last few Stormcast before my Dominion box (now having to be shipped rather than pick up :() shows up.

    I've been working on building a list around chaos warriors and it sounds like it might work for what you have collected. I'm not sure if it's going to be competitive or not, but initially it seems to have some potential. 

    Allegiance: Slaves to Darkness
    - Damned Legion: Ravagers
    Mortal Realm: Ulgu

    Leaders
    Chaos Lord on Karkadrak (250)
    - Artefact: Dimensional Blade
    - Mark of Chaos: Nurgle
    - Ravagers Command Trait: Eternal Vendetta
    Chaos Lord (110)
    - General
    - Reaperblade & Daemonbound Steel
    - Command Trait: Bolstered by Hate
    - Artefact: Mark of the High-favoured
    - Mark of Chaos: Nurgle
    Chaos Sorcerer Lord (110)
    - Mark of Chaos: Nurgle
    - Spell: Spite-tongue Curse
    - Ravagers Command Trait: Master of Deception
    Harbinger of Decay (160)
    - Allies

    Battleline
    5 x Chaos Knights (180)
    - Cursed Lance
    - Mark of Chaos: Nurgle
    20 x Chaos Warriors (400)
    - Hand Weapon & Shield
    - Mark of Chaos: Nurgle
    40 x Chaos Marauders (300)
    - Axes & Shields
    - Mark of Chaos: Nurgle
    5 x Chaos Marauder Horsemen (90)
    - Javelin & Shield
    - Mark of Chaos: Nurgle

    Behemoths
    Chaos Warshrine (170)
    - Mark of Chaos: Nurgle


    Battalions
    Plaguetouched Warband (180)

    Endless Spells / Terrain / CPs
    Extra Command Point (50)

    Total: 2000 / 2000
    Extra Command Points: 2
    Allies: 160 / 400
    Wounds: 144

     

    The basic idea is to abuse the chaos warriors as an incredibly durable tarpit with the warshrine nurgle buff, harbinger command ability, and aura save from the shrine along with their native rerollable save. Marauders kick butt, horsemen grab objectives or screen the marauders, and the knights and lord on karkadrak look to hammer whatever the warriors have tied up. The list is very resilient overall with decent objective play as well, but is certainly strapped for command points even with the extra so you'll have to be careful about summoning.

    Thanks that looks really fun!

  6. Hello! 

    I have decided on StD as my second AoS army. I play Death Guard in 40k, so my love of Nurgle had me swaying between this and maggotkin. In the end, the newer rules and cool models made me choose this. 

    So I have picked up the following:

    2 Start Collecting (1 old and one new) 

    40 Mauraders 

    1 Chaos Lord

    1 Chaos Sorcerer 

    I intend to use one of the Chariot models as a different Chaos Lord. 

    I keep seeing a Shrine is a necessary pick up (also a suggestion for an alternative model for this as I do not like the normal one), but was wondering what else to get for my Nurgle theme StD to make up a 2000 point army, that will be semi-competitive. 

     

    Thank you!

    Hey guys, I'm a Khorne player who is interested in starting an OBR army, do you guys have any beginner tips for starting and playing an OBR army? I've been wargaming for a while but I figure I should come to the pros for tips on OBR.

    I also created a list just for the heck of it, let me know what you guys think:

    - Legion: Petrifex Elite

    - Artefact: Lode of Saturation
    - Lore of Mortisans: Empower Nadirite Weapons
    Liege-Kavalos (200)
    - General
    - Command Trait: Mighty Archaeossian

    3 x Immortis Guard (200)

    Battalions
    Katakrosian Deathglaive (80)
    Kavalos Lance (120)

    Endless Spells / Terrain / CPs
    Bone-tithe Shrieker (30)


    Total: 1990 / 2000
    Extra Command Points: 2
    Allies: 0 / 400
    Wounds: 105
     

    Khorne has pretty good battalions, so I'm a sucker for taking lots of them, I love artifacts and low (ish) drop armies. Honestly this list probably sucks because it looks nothing like any other lists I've seen for OBR but whatever. Obviously I haven't been able to play anyone with this list, or play any games with OBR at all, so I'm not really sure what strategy I would use with this list, I just put it together because I'm bored. I'm interested to hear if you guys have any advice  for a newbie OBR bone tithe collector. Thank you in advance for any advice!

    I can't help, but this looks VERY similar to the list I would want to play if I decide to go with OBR over FEC.

    Looking over the stuff as mostly a BCR player and a couple thing look good:

    Mournfang, looking legit now with the upgrades and the buffs we can get on them.

    Eurlbad battalion: Additional mortal wounds on 6s from melee attacks for the whole battalion, for 140. Yes please. This thing seems like a no brainer. All my initial thoughts have started there.

    As a new BCR player are you planning on using gargant hackers or other weapons now? I can't seem to figure out which is best now.
