    Maybe I'm wrong but I think that Lauchon has wholly within 3", making some big-base units impossible to tp (Nagash, Thanquol, etc...).

    Thanquol is on a 90*52mm base iirc which is identical to the soulseeker. It could fit in.

    Actually I think Thanquol is the best wizard who can be transported with boat because there is no other wizard on such a small base (even if Arcane Tome considered) could fight as hard as Thanquol. Thanquol alone would make the soulseeker hilariously too good.

    This is an amazing ability, especially considering that the soulseekers cost like nothing (30p)

    I’m probably going to build some kind of a smaller warp portal, that can be used as the soulseeker.

    Yeah the soulseeker would be hilariously good in the new rules. I assume it is a typo and will get fixed soon.

    Initially, I did. My tendency to reuse the Order of the Fly was a minor bone of contention early on. The thinking was it would remind people of Bretonnia, which was (is) a sore point for many in the fanbase. BL wanted to avoid any accusations of mocking the fanbase. I argued that it showed the insidiousness of Chaos and Nurgle in particular - that even a chivalric 'good' society could be corrupted into something vile, but still functional as a society (rather than devolving into roving bands of nomadic cannibals, f'r instance). 

    This is making me mad at whoever objected this kind of settings. The Order of the Fly is still something that worth MORE stories in the AoS. IMO it is one of the most established Chaos societies till this day and you did it so well convoying your idea in the making of such an interesting good-and-evil concept. It should be discussed more in the AoS. Actually, do you think AoS is the most appropriate place in all these different Warhammer universes to discuss such a topic?

  4. I don't see Bladegheists as good tbh. They are costly, require certain sub-faction to become battleline. They have 32mm but 1'' weapon and don't do significantly more damage than dreadscythes or grimghasts. And since the whole army can retreat and charge they just don't seem to be "special" anymore.

    I think I'd need more info to justify taking them instead of dreadscythes or grimghasts...

    BTW banshees seem to be so good that they need a Faq.

  5. The incarnate looks great to me. A monster that would be a threat and unkillable for at least 2 turns.

    Even if the hero they are bonded to were slain they will still be highly in your control.

    Since most monsters are going to go drastically much higher in points, 400pts for a monster would definitely be a bargain.

    But here's the question: can they be bonded to special characters since they are "enchantment" according to the rules?

  6. More info about a rumour engine published earlier has been revealed on a Chinese social media account running by GW (don't know if they did it on purpose or by mistake), indicating it is a part of the model from Order factions in AOS. Any thoughts?

    Unless there are cards detailing allegiance abilities etc for the 2 factions?

    Like the ones we got in dominion?

    This can also be true. Then we might get to see some of the allegiance abilities before the actual new BTs come out.

    I expect it to be FAQ'd as it sort of makes the unit unkillable next to the harvester.

    Agree. And it does need a FAQ to explain that if Nagash can use all those universal CAs since he "does not benefit from" OBR's allegiance abilties.

    Maybe stupid question but what do u guys think we do about all the order gotrek lists? 

    How should we be able to touch him? Even 10 blightkings (they can't hit him at a time) won't kill him :/

    Disease dmg will be max 1 dmg on him due to his ability right? 

    I can't see a chance in the whole book to deal with him... Halve move and minus 2run/charge is our best bet and of course after successful cast within 14 you have to roll the 4 + :D can't believe that dumb rules after the casts to role another dice to get hopefully the effect of the spell... 

    We even lost cheap 5 PBs summoning for roadblocks 😆

     

    Stopping him from piling in with the bilepiper. I am happy that ability remain unchanged.

    -Overpowering Stench

    Festus-150

    Epidemius-145

    Bloab-300

    20PB-300

    Nurglings-105

    Nurglings-105

     

    Spellportal-70

     

    Looks viable actually. Using the models currently popular except Epidemius. But I really like the Tallyman now giving casting rerolls, which make casting more reliable for Bloab and Festus.
