I've been looking at something similar @Gibs I've also been looking at the buff Khorne list idea mentioned earlier in this thread. Going to playtest them moving forward under both ravagers banner and host of everchosen. I also think that a cavalry centric army might also have some legs with or without Archaon I am not sure yet. I feel like having Archaon is a must but maybe the ability to have more cavalry/units might be stronger. Either way I am not committing to any list for definite yet as we have an FAQ coming and what looks good on paper and what's good on the table top are two different things 😂😂

That's some super helpful info for tying in my old with the new, big thumbs up!
-
I have my book and it's as awesome lore wise etc and I had hoped for. Ignore the negativity from some users I think STD will be a solid adaptable choice in the upcoming meta. I would agree with @Sinfullyvannila and say while the new model is nice I would want to maximise my cavalry units from a look at the book. Maybe run a chaos lord on foot and a chaos sorcerer and have the DP as general spread your threats etc. 1000 points from my experience is about board presence, if you run an elite army you need a crippling hammer from people running swaves of units.

For me I am very excited while we might not be broken I have looked through the warscrolls and the minor improvements and for me this gives me plenty of options that won't feel like I'm self handicapping myself. If the battalions are varied and flavourful I think this is going to be on par with the Gloomspite, Ogors books and that's great!! I have pre-ordered the books and cards as I have 4000 points of chaos already built. Though I say this the new sculpts and cultists I am sure will tempt me if not the magic cat of doom and the crusher! Exciting times hitting the tables next year with slaves and big man. Anyone else notice Archaon is missing a command ability on the App. 'By my Will' is missing anyone know what it is?

As a huge lover of the StD range and chaos in general if they can get a book close to Gloomspite Gitz with everything at an ok playable level with a few good combos I am going to even more happy than knowing 40 CMs that I haven't finished are still very usable in the ravagers allegiance. It's starting to look alit like Christmas..... 😝😂😝 Can you tell I'm hyped.!
-
So this is amazing news Ravagers and an Archaon, or maybe Archaon my Varanguard and some knights.....all marked differently or all marked the same. I am a very happy customer right now, nothing better than a book that sounds stuffed with options for all my units. Here's hoping this is Gloomspite/Cities esk tome and not one subfaction to rule them all!
-
Oh I agree they need an update just an update I can still use the old models while I transition. Getting the dread axe means that they are dodgy lookalikes 😄 the untamed beasts is a great shout though @Charleston I am sure I have some fenrisian wolves laying about somewhere!
-
I don't mind any of this minus the squatting of my 40 mauraders....pretty please with sugar on top GW make them garbage but don't get rid of them 😂😂 Trying to convince them they are any of the warcry guys I might struggle....is there an Age of Conan warcry warband coming 👍🤞
-
I read that statement about old models and was happy as I like the old models and the new ones. I also took this as my 40 Chaos Marauders aren't going to be taken away before I have even finished them 😂😂 also I might even snap their heads off and put the new spare ones on some!
-
My wallet is sooooo ready. I finished my 10 Chaos knights and warriors ages ago when we were the guys wishlisting and people were setting my expectations really low 😂😂 Now it's time to get hyped! Also I noticed the wording of the warcry units as bloodspoil. So this is me being super hopeful that my 40 mauraders will not be squatted and still very usable. I might splash out and get my first limited edition codex bundle with the ES. Just to support the goodness of should I say Chaos!
-
Thanks for this so I haven't finished my GUO for this exact reason. So Rotigus would be better unless I was taking the spellportals interesting, I didn't know that. What weapon combos do you usually go on the GUO for the different builds? The mauraders were an idea but again I'm being patient as I know S2D is around the corner (I have 10 CK and 20 CW built and painted). I could always go plaguebearers or monks like the person posted a few pages back. Anyone had any success with battalions outside of blight/plague cyst?
-
Good evening rotbringers and plague slingers. Been reading for a while and the army has reached 1k and I'm looking at the next steps to a semi comp list (play at a club with various skill levels and go to tournies). List is in the spoilers, I have marked the already owned models. Loved the blades + Maurader combo highlighted here, so thinking of that and some of my favourite models. Big helper would be build for a GUO spell heavy or big and punchy?. Also what are the endless spells to take in Nurgle? Ps under no illusions the state of Nurgle in the meta but who doesn't like a challenge 😜

What @Smooth criminal says is on point with the current top performing lists. They tend to run 3 BT in Tyrants and Minimum Gorepilrims and then mongers to buff (see the top performing list from B&G). I run a 2 BT list (UF and Skar) and more mortals and while it is good it is definitely not broken and more of a mid tier list. Not run Skullmongers so I would lean on the more experienced players for that opinion. My new Khorne list will be double battalion mortals (Gorepilrims + bloodforged) and Skar. Gonna play test it and see what it's like next year.
-
Someone at B&G asked Warhammer directly during the preview event for new models etc regarding AoS and FW and they stated that "They are working on other projects" and that GW had taken the Warhammer teams in house. It was a very limited answer but the what you will from that.
-
So apologies if I am showing any ignorance but you mention synergies. Now Nurgle aren't killy at all by this forums admission, results and reading warscrolls. So what should I leverage synergy wise that I am missing DR? With Glotkin I though putting everything on a big blob and holding centre board would be a good idea? Again I totally understand the reasons to take BK -1 rend batallion or ally in Skaven blobs just wondering if their is any off meta choices experienced players have been thinking up. I just attended B&G and I saw a few lists that did alright and were 100% not on meta. Appreciate your advice @Crowvus
-
Haha that is alot of models. Seems funny though. I saw the Nurgle +Plaguemonks post on the previous page but not a huge fan of the idea of painting 80 rats on top of the 80 mauraders like you have, especially with the maurader models looking like Conan or the 90s show Hercules 🤣🤣! I was thinking of something like below but maybe I'm an optimist because I know from a few pages back Nurgle are in a tough spot and most run blight cyst or thricefold just seeing if there are any maniac lists I could jam! Allegiance: Nurgle Mortal Realm: GhyranThe Glottkin (420)- Lore of Malignance: Blades of PutrefactionOrghotts Daemonspew (240)Lord of Blights (140)- Artefact: RustfangFestus the Leechlord (140)- Lore of Foulness: Cloying QuagmireHarbinger of Decay (160)- General- Trait: Grandfather's Blessing- Artefact: The WitherstaveGutrot Spume (140)30 x Plaguebearers (320)5 x Putrid Blightkings (160)5 x Putrid Blightkings (160)Geminids of Uhl-Gysh (60)Extra Command Point (50)Total: 1990 / 2000Extra Command Points: 1Allies: 0 / 400Wounds: 127

Hello fellow rotbringers, I have been given a Glotkin as a present and have a urge to build a fun and crazy list around him after finishing my Khorne project. Do not care about super competitiveness as I will be the pilot!! Just want a list to have some synergy or cool little trick I can pull off. Something wild and out there I can build and win a couple of games at a big event if I'm lucky 🤟🤟😜 I'm sure you guys won't disappoint.

Yeah I would like the save upgrade! I have 10 CK so that would make a big help. Also would like to see the manticore have rend!!! The amount of times I chomp on someone and they go 'so 4 attacks what's the rend?' and I go 'oh he doesn't have any teeth it's all gums....no rend' 😂🤣 Then finally would be some unmarked loveliness or something for running them with Archaon as this is my biggest want. Just a middle of the road Archaon battalion that I can run Varanguard, maybe a Chaos champ, CWs and CK in a mortal managerie of loveliness
-
Thanks Smooth your observations are right the changes would be minor but I wanted to check as I value the dudes in this threads opinion. I really wanted to go mortal heavy but I've run out of money and time with work to get skullreapers/wrathmongers, more reaver's etc done in time.
-
So guys it's blood and glory list deciding time. Below are 2 lists, these are the models I own and have painted. I'll place a list of other units available to add. I have 0 dollar dollar so now more improving can be done for now. List one List 2 Spare models Any feedback or switches appreciated and if you do have a preference or change a reason why would be awesome.

I used him recently in a tournament while his extended pile in caught some people off guard he really was lacklustre with the same setup (hew, sword of judgement, Lance) I'll run him with friends still so hopefully he will do better for you love the model.

Demon Prince of Khorne + Ghyrstike/Amberglaive
Blisterfeet replied to Blisterfeet's question in Rules Questions
Yeah I am debating the realm artefacts and I am trying to pick between them. Thanks for the info though. -
Quick question if you give the artefact Ghyrstrike from Ghyran or Amberglaive from Ghur to a demon prince of Khorne which gets +1 to hit, does that make his hit rating stay at 2+ or does it become auto hit (1+)? I am just not seeing any stipulation in RAW with the artefacts but I'm looking on a wiki not the official book.
-
This is what I'm going to take at B&G. Running screened Skar, mortals in MSU blocks, shrine+brazen+killing frenzy in GP, with dog summons. This hopefully will make a durable objective fighting army with a bit of monster smashing punch. Now I wouldn't get your hopes up because while the plane might look impressive the pilot just got his licence if you catch my drift 😆 Mauraders having been getting a bit of a spotlight recently. Nurgle been running them, Khorne and a American GT was won with 40 as a order mercenary group.

Mini report from 1 day shop event. 14 players. Went 1 and 2 with what I had built as other Khorne models didn't arrive in time. Winner of the tournament was a shootcast list beating out a daemons of Khorne list in second. My list in 1st spoiler and report in 2nd for anyone who cares to read. As you can see this is no way competitive but I didn't know the club that well so had no idea the level of lists. Turns out pretty on par with the meta. Skaven, Ironjawz, Khorne, Fec, Cities of Sigmar, Sylvaneth + Gotrek, Shootcast.
