  1. Although it is a bit difficult to get to Nagash himself when your opponent secures him with dire wolves or something similar, it seems to be the only way. Anyway, it's nice to have your wisdom!Yes-yes!
  2. Hello tree fellas! Got to see some of the contents in our new book after a long wait. Everyone would admit that it is pretty different from the old book and it is time for us to make some changes. We used to relay on our 1 drop battalions but now they are gone. Pursuing low drop counts seem to cost too much since the new battalions are not as powerful and cheap as the old ones. So, IMHO,maybe giving up controlling our drops would not just break the core of our new army, instead it may open up our mind to put in units and stuff. I came up with several lists: Not saying these are the best, just want to discuss some possibilities. Looking forward to your thoughts on some units and tactics.
  3. Brilliant for slow down fliers! How could I forget them! But what concern me is when facing Nagash, it might be hard to get my spell off because he can unbind 8 spells with +3 unbinding.
  4. But how about fighting Nagash or other LoN armies? Or even FEC that can fly over the spell?
  5. I have noticed that Big Rats list with endless spells went amazingly well at several tournaments, how does it work so well with such a low body count?
  6. @Riff_Raff_RascalOh I can see that how Deceiver+Corruptor combo works. That’s a baller.Thx again!
  7. @Riff_Raff_RascalThanks for all the tips!But there is one thing I couldn't understand. Doesn't the SOJ inflict MWs only to HEROES or MONSTER? How does it become killy anyway?
  8. Got a start collecting box for winning a local tournament so I want to start a Skaven army. I know that everything in the box is sweet and what should I purchase next? Currently considering 1-2 Verminlords and 80 clan rats. Are jezzails or Acolytes necessary? They seem pretty badass but also expansive in price anyway. Maybe Stormfiends can be a good replacement? What do you think? Any advice is appreciated.
  9. I am pretty much looking forward to some point drop on the Vanguard Chamber to make the big Vanguard battlion viable. It will certainly become super strong then.(Maybe a good way to sell stocked vanguard models for GW.)
  10. Sigmar didn't cast him out of the Pantheon. It's when the dead started attacking the Alliance at the Shyish Arcway did Sigmar found out that Nagash had turned against him. No wonder he would just hunt Nagash himself in extreme wrath.
  11. It's been a while since the Arch-Revenant came out. Has anyone got to try it in a tournament yet? Anyway, I am about to play this in the coming weekend: Allegiance: SylvanethAlarielle the Everqueen (600)- Deepwood Spell: Throne of VinesArch-Revenant (100)- Artefact: Acorn of the Ages Branchwraith (80)- Artefact: Ranu's Lamentiri - Deepwood Spell: Verdant BlessingTreelord Ancient (300)- General- Trait: Warsinger - Artefact: The Oaken Armour - Deepwood Spell: Regrowth5 x Spite-Revenants (70)5 x Spite-Revenants (70)5 x Spite-Revenants (70)5 x Spite-Revenants (70)6 x Kurnoth Hunters (400)- ScythesOutcasts (90)Dreadwood Wargrove (90)Soulsnare Shackles (20)Geminids of Uhl-Gysh (40)Total: 2000 / 2000Extra Command Points: 2Allies: 0 / 400Wounds: 88 Just to see what the Arch-Hunter bubble can do.
  12. So that's why I think aetherwings are needed.
  13. Reversing them to 80pts will make Prosecutors great again.
  14. Heard the rumors that Longstrikes will get nerfed as well as Evocators in GHB2019...... Maybe then a bug unit of Judicator(even with the VW battalion) will be another option for the Anvil list.
  15. Wow, thx for that,it's good to know where he is these days! Can't wait to see some updates with our dwarf fellas.
  16. The Knight Azryros is excellent who buffs both missile and melee. Castellant can be an option, you can get wrong bringing him in a SCE army after all, but I haven't tried it yet. A Knight vexillor or a Lord Aquilor can be useful, but the point of Translocation here is that the prayer is activated in your hero phase so you can teleport your Longstikes and still get to use the command ability on them to shoot twice. I have used the Hurricane couple of times since they can still get their bonus when you teleport them. But it turns out without rerolling, they can fail me quite often. How do people fix that in a Anvil list?
  17. It seems that Grungi had done a lot for Sigmar for ages. They look like close friends than just allies. It's a pity that this dwarf god is like completely absent at the current story.
  18. I believe I have just put it right above May underestimate what aetherwings can do in this list. It seems I have to play more to master the list.
  19. The tactic that charging your evocators to another unit and piling in to tap the Terrorgheist sounds brilliant, but without Gav Surecharge it’s less reliable. I thick the advantage of a Gav list is that you get to choose when and where to fight with surecharge and so is the GG terrogheists. In many cases it will be like this: you shoot the bat-like drogon down to 3-4 wounds, and it charges evocators, kill them all and heal with the Chalice spell So I think the key to counter the GG terrogheists is Knight Incantor rather than Evocators. Denying 5+fnp and the chalice means a lot.
  20. Well basically there are 9 Longstrikes Crossbow,10 Evocators, a priest for translocation, a Knight Incantor for her dispell scroll ,some cheap chaff like skinks and aetherwings in a typical Anvil list. And it takes stormhost Anvil of Heldenhammer ,of course, to use its CA to attack/shoot in your hero phase.
  21. Is Anvilstrike a solid build to counter FEC? On average, 9 Longstrikes with CA would generate 18 attacks which cause 6 mws and 8 successful wound rolls. Without the Amulet and its own magic getting through , it is almost a guaranteed death to the dragon. But if it brings the amulet and the spell is carried out, it becomes much more unkillable. We stand a chance, but not so reliable imo.
  22. Totally agree that every army should have their fighty weapons, but when it comes to a dragon can wipe your whole army, it becomes another thing.
  23. I would like to put Seraphon to the god tier because one guy sweeps my local meta and seems unbeatable..... It’s confusing that Seraphon didn’t do well in tournaments according to the statistics from HWG
  24. The DPs are gained by wounds or mortal wounds inflicted by attacks. Does it mean that some abilities, for example the Mutilating Blade and the Symphoniac of Godseekers, wouldn't be able to generate DPs when they inflict mortal wounds?
  25. To unbind a spell and a free gryph-hound I suppose?
