Thank you sir. Ive been using spiders up to this point so have gotten used to rolling dice for no reason for my bows. That said, i did for wounds to kill a treelord last game....so somethings those extra wounds add up...

Another case where i have models painted so might as well try them out....your opinion is appreciated...

I have one painted and he has been on my beasts of chaos list a few times (a painted old metal one rebased). I think for his points he does fine....so whiffs and some good games...just like lots of units for this points cost. Of course you get to whip the chaos one which is nice....

And i thought you had crazy, strategic pland for those models...lol... Totally fair....ive been wanting to try a giant out as i have one painted...and think he might be a solid value for his potential...despite being unreliable...

So i like a lot of thinga about this list but have some questions: What spells for your 2 casters? I assume hand of gork for one... What role do you see for mollog and the giant? It seems like some more goblins to recyle and hold objectives might be useful...of course id prefer the 2 big guys from a troll list perspective but wanted to ask the question. How about the shootas? Home objective holders? It seems the internet hates the shootas so interested in your take...i like the idea that my cheap obejective holding models can shoot...

Thank you sir...thats some good context. I will be ready for March with 1000 points of trolls and hoping they are fun to play and give me a chance to win some games....

Thank you. I agree....i dont have the models to take objectives and i so need to remove as many as i can as fast as i can. Ive been playing all spiders to this point and will enjoy something completely different....

So i am in a slow grow league and we are up to 1000 points next month. I am going to run an 8 model troll list that was suggested on these forums for fun... Troggboss 3 rockguts 3 fellwater Troggoth Hag I was originally going to run the mighty blow command trait and Ghyrstrike on the boss to make him as killy as possible. As lossing models will be more killer for this list as i only have 8 models, i was wondering if i should go for a more defensive artefact. Just wondering what people think and how worried should I be about people killing my Hag too soon...

I like this list for the models and the need for 100 clan rats...balancing pretty big models with the footsloggers to hold the line and objectives. I might swap the cannon(s) and some of the cheaper heros for other guns...based on the models i have and not because they are more useful.

Thank you...i appreciate your thoughts...i'm working on my trolls right now and may give this a go...no matter how it goes having only 8 models seems fun...

Is this strong at 1000? I play fluffy mostly but i have a buddy who is pretty competitive and would like to have a chance against him...this feels fluffy and if its competitive even better...

Thank you sir. Very helpful. I think the scuttleboss will deminish usefulness as people figure out how scary he can be and how easily he dies. I also need to remember the spiders are light cavalry...i think that is a good perspective to have and not use them in the wrong way. I was thinking something similar for a list but would think 40 grots are better than 2 x 20.

What spells were you running? Was your scuttleboss the wrecker i think he is? Did your skitterstrand earn their points? Who do you feel was the star(s) of this list. Im 1-2 in a slow grow league...and i too am struggling with the finese side...different than my daughters of khaine who just run up and charge...

Like many i am sad that we didnt get any new models....but specific rules are nice and the more venom the better! Just got my first 500 points done just in time for the new book.
