  1. Good point. The tanks themselves are kinda weak.
  2. I secretly hope they don't nerf him down the road. I like the idea of a god-tier character who isn't an actual gargantuan model like Acheron, etc.
  3. My plan exactly: Gotrek, Warden King, Runelord, and battleline Steam Tanks.
  4. His points don't really matter cuz if you take him as an ally, you can ignore his points value (but you can't take any further allies).
  5. But it is an artefact and not a "spell or ability."
  6. So he can't be teleported. But would Ancestral Pick-Axe work with him?
  7. Given the soup nature of the Cities tome, allies aren't really necessary so I might try and take advantage of that to ally Gotrek in.
  8. He'd make a remarkable ally for a Dispo-centric Cities army as you wouldn't really need to take any other allies given the soup nature of the tome.
  9. Amen! The Hashut army is my #1 army, currently quite playable. Hopefully they will keep them in line with the evolving meta (like giving them the same extra wound that Fyreslayers got). So much of FW's stuff is cool as hell and really ought to just be part of the game and not a fringe element.
  10. I fear for our LoA with the upcoming FW changes. As well, if our Dwarfs don't get the same second Wound that the other dwarfs are all getting, that would really hurt us, imo.
  11. @Skreech Verminking Yeah, it is funny, in a bittersweet way. I think a game like AoS benefits from having a few armies like OD & BCR that are elite, low model count armies with a single tactic to perfect. Great starter armies.
  12. RIP, my Order Draconis army that I loved.
  13. Took down SCE with a 1K list yesterday: Taur'ruk, Smith, Castellan, 2x10 Fireglaives, 2x Magma Cannon, 1x3 K'daai
  14. Too bad what I have is High Warden, Reavers, and Swordmasters -- all likely on the chopping block.
  15. I recently acquired a Steam Tank, 1K Dispo, & 1K Swifthawks so I am excited for this tome. Hopefully the Swifts don't get squatted.
  16. I put up a ******-poor performance in my round robin tournament, suffering major losses to Beastclaw Raiders & Sylvaneth and a minor loss to Nurgle. Deployment errors were my biggest issue. I'm re-thinking my list and definitely dropping the artillery battalion, not worth the points.
  17. Wish I had a third Magma to take. I need the Shackles, I think. I can use them to block BCR charges, as well as zone out the board to prevent further Wyldwood summons.
  18. Have a round robin tournament this Sat vs. Nurgle, Sylvaneth, & Beastclaw Raiders. Here is my list: Leaders Bull Centaur Taur'ruk (160) - General - Trait: Grotesque - Artefact: Armour of Bazherak the Cruel Daemonsmith (100) - Darkforged Weapon Infernal Guard Castellan (120) - Darkforged Weapon & Pyrelock Pistol - Artefact: Chalice of Blood and Darkness Chaos Sorcerer Lord (160) - Runestaff - Mark of Chaos: Nurgle - Allies Battleline 10 x Infernal Guard Ironsworn (90) 10 x Infernal Guard Fireglaives (100) 10 x Infernal Guard Fireglaives (100) Units 9 x K'Daai Fireborn (420) War Machines Iron Daemon War Engine (180) Deathshrieker Rocket Launcher (120) Magma Cannon (140) Magma Cannon (140) Battalions Hashut's Wrath Artillery Train (120) Endless Spells / Terrain Soulsnare Shackles (40) Total: 1990 / 2000 Extra Command Points: 1 Allies: 160 / 400 Wounds: 108
  19. I'd hate to see FW drop LoA just to make AoS all plastic. No way they remake the whole LoA line in plastic. The army will get squatted and that's that, which is too bad as it is a near-complete line and competitively viable.
  20. I'd also really like to see some evidence regarding Blackshard Armor negating MWs. I don't think it does as the Armor Of Bazherak The Cruel clearly states it negates both wounds & MWs. The difference in the language leads me to believe that Blackshard does not negate MW.
  21. I'd like to know more about the Thermalrider on the Castellan. I was gonna give him Chalice Of Blood & Darkness.
  22. Why not? They are perfectly legal to play. The only reason would be if the model's keywords don't work for Matched Play.
  23. I'm reasonably happy with LoA in terms of model line and rules support. But I hate to think the line is stagnant and that we'll never get that K'Daai Destroyer or other cool things.
  24. If you want to generate CP, get a Magewrath Throne on the table and make sure your General is near it. EDIT: And I disagree that they aren't strong enough for tournament play. I've read tournament battle reports of LoA doing quite well. Especially with K'daai and Magma Cannon heavy builds.
