Make the owner of my local game store happy again!
Hi all,
I absulutely love the Harverster sculpt, though I´m not able to build an army around two of them that I really like. The needs are:
- 2 Harvesters
- 1000 points to 1250 points
- well balanced force
Can you help me to find a good list? The owner of my LGS would be very happy!
2 Harvesters is a lot for just 1000 points. I wouldn't recommend doing that. However at 1250p it would simply be adding another to my 1000p list so in my case it would look like this:
Boneshaper
Liege-Kavalos
20 Mortek Guard
5 Deathriders
Harvester
Harvester
Bone-tithe shrieker
You would even have 50p left for whatever.

I'll be laughing so hard if GW releases an AoS Apocalypse or Epic AoS that plays similar to WHFB.

Harvester because it's the best looking model of the range.

against a 5+ it‘s 111% chance.
(x) doubt
As long as you throw dice and there's even a tiny chance of failure it can't be 100% not to mention above 100%.

No I in contrast to you I don‘t accept every bs GW puts out and declare it as reasonable, good game design and absolutely needed, I am actually critical especially if the overperforming unit that can turn entire games on average happens to cost a small fortune - what coincidence!
I argue that the entire RULESET is bs, fun-robbing, generally unneeded and is just a means to sell an overpriced kit.
That‘s my last word on this discussion since you seem to run out of arguments.
kind regards.
Just because someone disagrees with you it doesn't automatically mean they aren't critical and are accepting every bs. You might want to take a step back and breath for a minute.

Really?
Jeff is a one man show, and spends all day making and designing bases. Real good ones, too - been buying off him for almost a decade. Can't help but be rubbed up the wrong way by that comment.
Not sure why you would be rubbed up the wrong way by that comment or what it would have to do with him as person. It's just what it is.

I've been using Dragon Forge Design for my entire Death Collection so far (Broken Wasteland set). I have an order in place for everything in the OB range.
Oh wow that's some ancient website "design". They badly need someone who knows how to do stuff this century.

Quite honestly: All instant slay abilities should just be removed from the game and granting it to a 200 pts model is just stupidly too strong.
if your enemy gets lucky he/she can oneshot a frakin‘ dragon. Who the Frakk thought that was funny OR a good idea?
„Ha I just killed your Vampire Lord on Zombiedragon!“ - SUCH FUN, INCREDIBLE! Almost as much fun as getting all your valuable models removed by hand of dust - what an utter design masterpiece, could it be that they slapped that on a model that costs 65€ on purpose? GW? Nah never.
To be honest, just like Mortal wounds on way too many things and rules and stuff that let people ignore anything to do with Bravery.
GW has a talent for circumventing their own mechanics and adding "gotcha!" kind of rules.

As much as I do cringe at seeing a prefix used as a word on its own (meta), I felt compelled to applaud you for being one of the few who accurately abbreviate Ossiarch Bonereapers as OB as opposed to OBR. Thank you.
Bonereaper is a compound word of bone and reaper, so OBR is technically not wrong either.

Why 2 scenery boxes?
You mean 4.

My initial wave of Bonereapers has arrived. Now, unless I want to stick with my normal plain basing scheme, I need to look for a company that does resin bases in the full range of sizes that come in this model range.
Anyone got suggestions?
It really depends on what kind of base you are looking for. Microartstudios has lots of great looking bases but you definitely should also look into Greenstuffworlds texture rolling pins.

Decorated horns or more likely tusks ... looks interesting.
The decorations make me think Slaanesh or similar however I could see it easily be a named character for a destruction faction that doesn't necessarily resemble the rest of the faction that much. -
Not interested in Morghast, not interested in the named character and not interested in Ogor models (even though I love them as an army). Easiest pass on a box for an army I play ever. 😅

Actually if you compare a top end computer or even a modern generation console - that's an army in cost before you can even play. In contrast many of the tools for wargames are pretty simple and cheap (even if you get them at Gw's inflated prices). Plus most (barring paints and glues) will last you YEARS. A new generation console might last you a handful of years before its replaced.
Of course in contrast a new game might only be the cost of a few models and you can argue that your home PC does more than "just" play games. However in general I don't think the price difference between the two is all that great if you're buying new products.
Heck I've got a harddrive failing (boo) and that's likely going to cost me as much if not more than a Great Demon of Slaanesh to replace.
One army? That's either pretty optimistic or thinking in the past. My new PC isn't even top end, just really good and I could've easily bought two 2k point armies for the price (without monitors and such of course, just the PC itself).

Considering how many people talked about wanting to do a cavalry list I'm kinda surprised that nobody has posted any yet. ^^

You are so right! And I can not really understand why GW is not doing anything about it. Why is there no warscroll builder for 40k for example? It is so terribly complicated to build an army in 40k with all the separate point costs and the beloved Battlescribe is the best thing we have, but it is not a good app in my eyes. There is plenty of more room to make a user friendly and easily accessible app which would give GW some additional moneys for a relatively low effort.
GW said quite some time ago that they're working on a similar app for 40k. Reality is that they bought a half-arsed webapp from an independent guy and ever since then nothing happened. In that time I could have coded my own app thrice from scratch to finish.
At least we got Battlescribe to help out with writing lists, even though it's not as hard as many people try to make it once you know your army well enough.

Physical copies to have at home in my shelf, digital copies for practical use.

Yeah that will definitely damage the plastic over time. ^^

Funnily all Ogor players I know are skinny and underweight. Odd.
And then we have the opposite, I'm a skeletons player and am overweight.
(also a Slaanesh player which arguably fits me being a lazy ass that rather enjoys life to its fullest than doing anything else way more) -
Yeah if you can't physically place your model, it simply can't go there. No matter whether it can fly or not.

If you don't care about competitive play, Nagash, Katakros and 2 boxes of Mortek Guard gives you 1900 points for 200£ and you are free to use any Endless Spell roaming freely in your house
I don't care about competetive play but I care even less about passing on models I want just to save money lol
(also before I get Nagash you'll find me quitting the hobby...)

Well, that is me, of course.
I thought there were noticable differences between Gotrek and the Fyreslayers, but those could well be solved already. If Gotrek names himself a Fyreslayer, I'm not going to tell him he's wrong. At least not in charging distance.
His charging distance has no limit, he just needs a bit until he gets there.
55 minutes ago, Overread said:Gotrek is very loud about the fact that he's a dwarf and not a Fyreslayer
Not at the end of the second Realmslayer audiodrama anymore.

My 2000p Bonereapers will cost me about 350€ when I order from a store with a 20% discount and that doesn't include the Battletome or terrain piece (but it does include the Endless Spell pack). Interestingly the first 1000p is just about 150€. 😅

Crawlers have 3 shots 2+/3+/-/5 That's 8.3333 damage per round on average before saves. It's very good output for the price and range, and even if they do take damage, you can heal them for 3 per turn with Arkhan/nagash/Katakros or boneshapers.
Compare that with a plagueclaw at 3+/3+/-2/d6 or 2+/3+/-2/2d6 vs units per round before saves, for 4/5 the price. A WLC only averages 3.5 mortal wounds per round, making it worse vs anything with a 4+ save or worse.
Rocket battery? 2 average damage per round at .65* the price at rend -2 -> nowhere near as good unless the target has a 2+ save (or re-rolls).
The flat 5 damage also means that a lot of hero models are extremely vulnerable to them. If 1 wound goes through, a 5 wound hero is dead, and with a 2+ hit baseline, they shoot at a 3+ even if the hero is benefiting from "look out sir".
While on full wounds, crawlers are quite probably the best artillery in the game, and with 12 wounds and a 4+ save, they're also pretty tough for an artillery piece, and their range means they often aren't even an option for your opponent to target until turn 2 or 3, because they can deploy on the back table edge.
Vs a unit with 3 or 4 very expensive models with a good save, like Varanguard or Stormcast cavalry, their cauldron ability is extremely threatening, as with 3 dice, there's a very high chance of killing one of the models outright and doing more damage than a normal shot. Though both of the 1 time use special shots are highly situational.
That might be true, however how is the damage per point? The Crawler is quite expensive and I'm not sure how expensive the comparisons are.
