  1. I'll sadly miss that more then likely. Keep us posted....and all you venerable Longbeards, be sure to grumble about Dispossesed so they know we're itching for support!
  2. Just finished my very first kitbash. This here is my custom Warden King, Grom Graniteshield. I used a combination of Longbeard and Ironbreaker bits to make him
  3. Wait, don't don't Longbeards grumble and moan all the time? >.>
  4. I think this is stuff the owner has had a long time. He's been playing since fantasy. In fact, he used to be a Dwarf player. They have 40k terrain there as well. Yea, I feel you. Still, win or lose, I had a lot of fun. And I'm getting better with each game. One thing I will say though is that block of 30 Hammerers is SCARY. Especially if backed by a hero, they just refuse to budge
  5. Battle Report! I was at a doubles Tourney tonight. Played some weird tag teams and a casual game. I showed up and had no duo, so while the store owner tried to match everyone by Grand Alliance, I and another player had to make due wity the strange pairing of Dispossesed and Beast Claw Raiderz. Rules were 1500 points per person. My list was as follows: 1 Warden King 120 (Trait: Siegemaster) 1 Runelord 100 (Relic: Ancestral Pickaxe) 1 Runelordx100 30 Hammerers 420 20 Ironbreakers 280 20 Irondrakes 360 Total Points 1480 1st game was vs my roomate and another person lending him models, Nighthaunt vs Legion of Nagash. The objective was a moving one, and we managed to cap it before it moved to our side of the field. My roomate tried screening with Chain Radps, but even without rend the Irondrakes cleared them quickly. It was a slow slog, and sadly we ran out of time before my roomate coukd deepstrike with their Night Haunt elites. I tried teleporting with my Hammerers into the vampire lord but failed the charge even with the +2 to move and charge my partner gave with his endless spell. In fact, Dispossesed suffered no casualties Victory for Dispossesed and Beastclaw. 2nd round was Sylvaneth vs Grand Alliance Order with mostly Freeguild General and Crossbowmen, but also took a Hurricanum and a Luminark. Mode was 3 middle objectives with switching values. First time playing the trees and their terrain is a PAIN. This led to a slow but sure defeat ad our numbers were slowly hut surely whittled down and my opponents sufferes lityle casualties, as we had to deal with th e woods doing mortal wounds on very lucky rolls. Sadly after that I was out of the tourney, but my duo partner and I played a 2k game after. Same list as above, but I added the following: 1 Cogsmith 100 1 Cannon 160 30 Warriors 280 Game mode was simple: we both had an objective on our side of the field, and had to mstch forward to take our opponents. My opponent went first and managed to charge my Ironbreakers, who took the charge like champions and lost 2 men, killing one of his larger models in retaliation. From there, I marched my right flank of Warriors up, who screened my Irondrakes and Warden King. My Runelords buffed my Irondrakes and Ironbreakers before the one with the pickaxe grabbed my 30 block of Hammerers. The cannon sadly missed almost every shot, in one instance my opponent getting a lucky save on a 6 when I did hit. Next combat I charged his general with my Warriors screening him and locking him in place (This was right aftertye teleport). From there I hold the line, and my Hammers came in after I won the next turn, charged the units he had left on guard duty, and capped the objective by turn 3, winning me the game. Next post has pictures taken by the owner of the Silver Dragon Tavern of Miami Florida.
  6. Very true! I have to hold myself back a bit though. I've bought quite a bit, and I'm now trying not to just buy a whole bunch of Kharadron Overlords all at once to expand my Dwarfversity (I am not sorry) I may have to buy some Fyreslayers, but as a standalone faction they bore me. Whose bright idea was it to name the leader of each unit the Karl? Every. Single. One.
  7. I'd be curious to see the sales figures vs the amount of boxes produced for Dispossesed. The models seem to sell out quickly on GW, but it's hard to tell if people are buying large quantities or if it's just a small restock each time. It hasn't even been a full week since Longbeards/Hammerers, Quarrelers/Thunderers, and all their heroes restocked, and already the Runelord and Hammerers/Longbeards kits are unavailable again. Thankfully I'm all set for the melee front for now, though I would love to get a few more boxes of Warriors in the future, and I just ordered two more boxes of Thunders, which will put my collection at 30 for both guns and crossbows, and I have all the heroes I need.
  8. I actually bought a start collecting box, so I have that all set. To clarify, the two Companies would be at 10 men each? The Runelord would be an interesting pick, though sadly the only real use I would get from him is spell unbinding, since his buffs very specifically target Dispossesed. Maybe a Grimwrath Berserker if I don't end up buffing the number of Thunderers (Which more likely) Also, in people's opinion, are Skywardens worth it over Endrinriggers?
  9. I have a question for you all. I am a dwarf enthusiast who has been collecting Dispossesed models for some time now (I actually just finished getting my 2k list together). I'm mainly a Dispossesed player at heart, but I really like the overall look and concept for Kharadron Overlords. To start with, what would be viable to include in a 1k army? The faction seems a bit difficult to build around points wise for me.
  10. I also don't feel like sacrificing the flavor that is the Dispossessed allegiance. I play as someone righting grudges and seeking to reestablish my clan's hold to prominence. The "Free City" allegiance kind of dampens tgat for me.
  11. In response to a previous question I have no idea who my partner will be. That said I have thrown together a quick list. Warden King 120 Runelord 100 (Pickaxe) 100 Point Hero of Choice 20 Ironbreakers 280 30 Hammerers 420 20 Irondrakes 360 10 Longbeards 100 Total 1480 Plan is to just go elite, go straightforward, and use pickaxe to cap objectives. The role or use of pickaxe may change. The unnamed hero will PROBABLY be a Runelord, but I have an Unforged on the way and I'm toying with the idea since we do have a Chaos player as well as someone that runs Beastclaw Raiders
  12. I serk assistance from the Longbeards! I will be at a local Tourney next Saturday that runs 1500 points...with the twist that it will be 2 on 2. Any suggestions tactics and list wise?
  13. Fun fact, I just finished my 2k list for assembly and this is the EXACT list I'll be running. I was thinking, as an option, of swapping one Runelord with a Cogsmith for the cannon. Thoughts?
  14. I agree, though the base concept would be interesting. Perhaps we get these runes in place of spells? Something to help even the playing field or make us stand out a bit. Or maybe we get something that benefits ys whenever we fulfill a grudge on the table in some way?
  15. I uploaded this on reddit but I figured I would share this little guy here. His name is Sergeant Svenson. I wanted one of my Hammerers to looka little different, and act as a second in command to the unit fluff wise. I was thinking of digging out a tray from the Quarrelers/Thunders that I had laying around and giving him a pipe as well. Also still need to add his shoulder plate
  16. If no one else does I can do so in like nine or so hours when I get off work
  17. I see. Dropping a unit of Longbeards and about 10 Ironbreakers would put it in a good place. That way I still have three large infantry blobs to work with and plenty of support from the Runelords and Warden King
  18. A good point. I have Endrinriggers laying around from the KO Get Started Box, though I hope I haven't misplaced the little stands that prop them up
  19. The original list includes a cannon and a gun master, but doesn't have the warriors. What would be your opinion on an organ gun vs a cannon? I have a box that can make either that hasn't been assembled yet
  20. I've come up with a slight variation of the 2k list I've been planning. Lemme know what you all think. It foregoes artillery and focuses on a simple forward march. 1 Warden King 120 3 Runelords 300 30 Dwarf Warriors 240 30 Ironbreakers 360 30 Hammerers 420 20 Irondrakes 360 10 Longbeards 100 10 Longbeards 100 Total Point Value 2000/2000
  21. It certainly means that cannon I bought wasn't a waste of money
  22. Yea, it was a LOT of fun. The Ironbreakers in particular managed to hold a line better then they had any right to, dying to the last man without fleeing to protect their king as long as possible. It was an epic feeling, and the people unfamiliar with Dispossesed seemed to think they were pretty cool
  23. So I played for the first time ever this past Sunday...and got slaughtered each time. I was up againt Demons of Slaanesh, Stormcast hunters, and Ice Ogres. That said, the people that play in the store, as well as the owner, were all super cool people who offered a lot of advice. I feel I learned a lot about the game and how I need to play around my faction pick.
