Thanks, that had totally slipped my notice. Easy fix tho, like you say. I was actually wondering if it was worth assembling some Skywardens from the models I’m getting, just for variety. This has made the decision easier. Any thoughts on the lists effectiveness?

I'm not sure it's either. From GW's perspective, Morgwaeth's blade coven has a warscroll if you want to use its models in AoS. Just because they are witch aelves/sis of slaughter doesn't mean that all witch aelves/sis of slaughter should match their base size, as they are in effect a unit of named characters. WA/SoS were already reboxed for Aos so doubt we'll see a change.

So, I mentioned planning a 1K list for meeting engagement. I’m getting into AoS and my plan is to have a few smaller forces. I have the Aether War set and will be getting a start collecting box soon so my KO list is based around that. Thanks on the heads up on the latest point costs! Barak Zilphin Spearhead; 3 x Endrinriggers, volley gun & drill launcher 1 x Gunhauler with MW on the charge endrinwork (Can’t remember name) Main Body; 6 x Endrinriggers, skyhook. 1 x Endrinmaster with dirigible suit and Zilphin artefact 1 x Gunhauler with compartments 5 x Thunderers Rearguard; 3 x Endrinriggers, volley gun & drill launcher Total 970 My thinking is spearhead rush onto objectives with zilphin auto 6 run or chip damage with longer range weapons. Then the main body can be a mini deathstar flying high and hitching to take on any threats. Lastly the rearguard to rush onto objectives late game. One drawback I can see is it doesn’t really making the most of Aether gold as the units are too small, but I think that’s just one of the quirks of meeting engagement. Any thoughts? Also, any else have much experience playing KO in meeting engagement? Any fun lists you’ve come up with?

Wow! They've changed again since GHB 2020? That's good news. I've been struggling with 1K lists.

@Ciotola & @Rahxephon I think your points are out. Frigate is 250, Gunhaulers are 150, Endrinmaster with dirigible suit is 220 in GHB 2020. Also escort wing is 140. Not sure if you're using warscroll builder but it's not been updated yet. I too am looking at 1K point lists, though I will probably be giving meeting engagement format a try so won't quite translate the same to standard 1K list building.

Yes, this is the way it works.

Yes

Very interesting! Thanks. My plans for hitching Fly High Endrinriggers (with Skyhook) +3” to charge is not dead yet then 😉

Was there any verdict yet on whether using soulscream bridge to teleport wardens would keep shining company formation activated? Technically it is a setup.

Thanks, that’s how I read it too.

Could Chronomatic Cogs be picked as a spell in a bottle? Ok, I know it could be picked, but could any of the KO characters actually manipulate it? Seems impossible RAW.

Yes, they can. It was confirmed in the KO designers commentary. https://www.warhammer-community.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/3agNbxKLGLQrAC29.pdf

RRP is £110. Think I paid £85ish new from Dark Sphere. £70 is a very good price!

Personally, I think it's fair to give your opponent the kind of information found on an AoS reminders printout (maybe even have a copy for them along with your list). Yes, they can look up the warscrolls but, unless they have the tome, they will not know allegiance abilities, artefacts etc. Giving them a printout wouldn't give away your tactics, just all the rules that apply to your army.

Not sure on the page number, but it will be in the Kharadron overlords battletome, on the points list. Skywardens/Endrinriggers have “battleline if“ in their unit entry. Actually, it’s also found in the general’s handbook 2020, pg 23 (of the points booklet).

Thanks, I suspected that might be the case!

I don’t have the tome yet, just piecing bits of info from online- is it possible to give the same ship upgrade twice in an army? Thought it would be cool to have more than 1 Gunhauler with transport capacity. I know you need a battalion for the extra endrinwork, but can you double up?

I'd like to be able to spend a command point to re-roll a cast/unbind. For when you really need that spell to go off, same as when you really need to make that charge.

So, I listened to the details on the LRL tournament winning list. It's a one drop list designed to maximise Sentinel shooting (see attached). Cast twinstones, cast spell portal, then cast lambent light through portal (for rerolls to hit with missile weapons against target you want dead), then power of hysh on the 4 units of sentinels, then go fishing for 5's & 6's. Ouch! Not sure on all the artefact choices. WarscrollBuilderList.pdf

Not had chance to listen to this yet so don't know all the details, but thought it might be of interest here. Reports of Lumineth winning a tourney!

Anyone foreseeing any issues with Shining Company and the use of movement trays? There can be a few mm between bases with a lot of mdf style trays. Mini mag trays are probably the best option for actual base to base contact. Anyone think this will be a problem?

I'm interested in playing some meeting engagements. I didn't pick up GHB 2019. Does anyone know if just buying the GHB 2020 will be enough? Are the rules for meeting engagements fully repeated in GHB 2020 or will I need GHB 2019 as well?

Think it’s been confirmed on a social media post (Facebook?) that it is a mistake. So unofficially official, he is not a wizard.

As long as they don’t take away access to all the warscrolls! It’s one of the things I love about AoS, being able to look up any unit in the game! Fair enough, pay for the extras, allegiance abilities, artefacts, points etc.

One exception I can think of would be an awakened wyldwood, where units with fly can see/be seen over the terrain.
