Insensate Rage drops 4 mortals on a six to wound, gets 5 attacks, and can attack twice without buffs. Add two more, one of which gets to swing immediately after the other.
-
Really any khorne can push out enough mortal wounds to take that drake out unless it's reaver spam or something.
-
Khorne. Against all my other buddies it's a cheesy meme, but when three bloodthirsters go flying at it half the army is gone including the drake.
-
I have. Still gets wrecked by mortal wounds if there's enough of them.
-
Yup, I'm running sequitors as battleline. I played around with the stardrake version, and it's really powerful, but I didn't have fun with it and when it inevitably dies to a bucket of mortal wounds there goes a massive points investment. If the arcanum dies to mortal wounds then it's whatever, if he doesn't then he's a serious pain to remove.
-
Been playing around with an arcanum on dracoline with smoldering helm+castellant+staunch and it's been pretty memey. I think an arcanum on a gryph with that combo might be more useful though since the dracoline gets benefits from charging despite bounding leap helping me not to do so. The gryph arcanum can also heal which just makes him even harder to kill.
-
Thanks for that excellent write-up. The punch yourself Stardrake seems pretty fun so I might try that out sometime in the near future. Still currently trying to hammer out my Anvilstrike list though.
-
What exactly would the stardrake list look like? I'm still playing around with Anvilstrike, but I was also considering the stardrake as a potential list going forward.
-
As much as that's true I'm not giving my friend that much credit haha. Is there really any way to deal with swamp lists like that? I'm practicing for NOVA and I feel like I'm going to be seeing more horde lists than monster lists.
-
So I just experienced 160 bloodreavers today. Not fun lol. Anvilstrike didn't stand a chance.
-
Just played with this and it went pretty well. I forgot to use anvils twice though so rip me,
-
I'm still having trouble justifying a Knight-Azyros in my list. He's a throwaway 100 points for a single round of re-rolling 1s at best.
-
What's the most effective way to use aetherwings?
-
I was thinking about replacing the Azyros for a Castellant to give the Evos a 3+
-
This is the anvilstrike list I'm currently trying out. It's been doing pretty well, but I feel like I definitely need more practice.
-
Before the book the usual lists I'd die to are bloodletters being flung across the table turn 1, or the bloodthirster patriot missile. I don't usually run any aetherwings in my army, but I think I might depending on how things go with this new book.
-
How the heck can stormcast deal with khorne? Before the new book that just dropped my friend usually plays with a murderhost and wipes me turn 1. Now with the new book it seems like a large amount of their units just got stronger and in some cases cheaper, so I have no idea how to deal with them now.
-
Anybody running a chaos warshrine with their blightkings?
-
I don't play nurgle, but I have a friend that's trying out lists that consists of mostly if not all blightkings. Can anybody give any advice that I can pass on?
-
So with the things that I own (minus the longstrikes) I'm thinking up something like this, I'm thinking about dropping the Lord-Veritant for a Lord-Relictor just for the model looking cooler in the Anvils theme, but that extra dispel is nice. I'm not so sure about keeping the Knight-Azyros either. I also have 10 Liberators available, and a Castellant.
-
The single shot is 36" so it actually has longer range, but I do agree that they don't have the same reliability. On average 3 of them single shooting will be around 10 to 12 shots, with an Ordinator they're hitting on 2s which isn't bad and still a decent ranged threat. Worst case scenario though you get off 3 shots and they don't wound anything, but they're also a lot cheaper than 9 longstrikes.
-
This is more along the lines of what I'm thinking of. The ballista's provide comparable damage from range that the longstrikes without the CA ability do, but then just use the CA on a unit of Evocators or a big block of Sequitors instead.
-
I'm pretty interested in the Anvilstrike lists, but I don't have any longstrikes. Can this list work with the ballistae instead?
-
You would just use the rules from the sotrmhost you want. My guys are painted as Anvils, and i like using the rules for them, but sometimes I run them as Hammers or Astral
-
How do you guys feel about using the Anvils ability on units in combat? Rather than spending it on Longstrikes? I find that dropping it on 20 sequitors or evocators is pretty devastating.
