@Asimov That sounds interesting I redrew up my list last night (couple of times) still on the idea of a mortal/semi comp list after getting the book and was thinking of this. Question though - are the battalions worth it (other than changehost) or better to spend the points on something else?

So 3 games today at 1500 versus new Sylvaneth book. Game 1 was cut short while still close but Game 2 and 3 went to the gnarlroot list. Minor Victory and Major Victory. While the Major Victory was littered with mistakes from both parties. Game 3 was a tie and went down to kill points and I had been tabled in the last turn. Have to say I struggled with low drops, having the larger drop Sylvaneth counter deploy against my Terrorghiest/ZD. I tried to go hard against the double threat his army had, but the shooting from Dyrca and Hunters and counterpunch with reroll 1s on shooting and fighting were too much. I did whiff a little in Game 3 (failed charge with reroll on TG) have to say the new tree book was quite impressive. If you have any games against them please share any tips. I tried to deny forest space etc but seemed I just got whittled away at and the teleporting is so much more consistent now objective sitting seemed to never quite be enough if I didn't alpha and do something Lists we ran Versus

@Sumanye Thanks for this post it is really helpful. I love the enlightened models so running 6 seems good. Ogroid is another swap I'll consider. I'll be honest alot of the spell placement was a bit random but now I have the book I'll reconsider my lore placements. I'll go back to the drawing board and rejig the numbers around. @firtahl thanks as well.

Hey again, so I have drawn up my two lists. Looking for feedback on the better list for a semi comp list. I did not want a usual Daemon list or Change host so I know these below are not tier 1. As always open to suggestions, tweaks, constructive criticism. Would prefer a mortal list even though I know I am handicapping myself. Also I would have summons to spend fate points on. Depending on feedback I will be buying my first 1000 points today!!! ð

@Lightbox that is incredibly helpful. I know it's going to be a learning curve especially being a FEC player and in 40k playing mainly combat armies, but that is the draw of Tzeentch colourful and so different!
-
@Frowny @Lightbox thanks for those responses I think I am getting an idea of the list I want to build. @Lightbox Can I ask what list you run usually as you say don't run many demons and I do like the aesthetic of mortals! Do you have any favourite endless spells you take?

Hey everyobe, so I've just got from Warhammer world yeaterday and I want to start a 2000 point project after finishing my FEC! Could you guys help a total novice create a non dreadful list, only stipulations are the following; - Love enlightened disc models - Want to run Archaon (RoC just adore the model) Rest feel free to do whatever! Any help would be appreciated even if it is what to buy first or a list you have made.

Scenario FEC army with a GKoTG and 1 AAR who is general with Majestic horror, standing on a Charnel throne. 1 CP has been purchased and it is the end of the 1st turn movement phase. Summoning options off board are 20 ghouls, 2 Varghulfs, 1 Infernal Courtier, 3 Crypt Flayers. Question How many summons legally can you do (how much CP if any used) and can you summon into their deployment zone? The FEC book seems to indicate unlimited as long as legal units, old rules talk about distances involved (18inches) and online people say it is 3 as majestic horror gives a free one, the Charnel thrones let's you summon one with no cost and the GKoTG can summon the flayers. Thanks in advance came up in a match today and we just got in a right mess as we don't own every book.

Hi Everyone, Just finishing off my first 2 projects with FEC and Nighthaunts and was wanting to start my next project in the coming months (yup I am not that loyal to any Grand alliance!). I really want to base the army around Archaon and have Nurgle included. Would the below list be the right way to go about this or would there be a better way of doing so. Ignore the artefacts as I was totally guessing. The army does not need to be min-maxed but I would like it to be synergistic as this usually allows for more 'tricksy' plays. Any ideas appreciated though talk to me like 5 year old remember I play with ghouls and chompy dragons usually ð
-
Yeah as @XReN said the ghoul king has been raised. If you are summoning flayers/horrors @Erdemo86 then the courtier that matches those could be placed on the battlefield. Otherwise an Barricade and another 10 ghouls could be a choice, would be my suggestion.
-
So the everyone has had time to digest the FAQ see the landscape moving forward. For those who attend events or clubs what's everyone's 2000 point lists moving forward. Anyone jamming anything different? Are you sticking to your current list? or including an interesting ally or mercenary moving forward? Secondary question with Slaanesh doing well at recent events, how do you think you are gonna combat that?
-
@Honk this is the impression I am now getting that the small board, screening and limited numbers of troops (we have) you need to be a bit more tactical with how you attack/play. What list did you play against? Anything you thought afterwards you would do differently if you were to play today.
-
Ah I see your point @XReN as I will get free CP from throne so for redundancy sake if I make GKoTG have MH he can freely summon. Would there be any concern with making your GK the general? Or would the benefit of completely free summon outweigh possibility of your general being slain early game?

Hi @PraetorDragoon I have finalised my meeting engagements list for a tournament ,while I won't use a zombie dragon maybe it could be a help to you. Allegiance: Flesh Eater Courts - Grand Court: Court of Delusion - The Feast Day Mortal Realm: Shyish Spearhead Abhorrant Archregent (240) - General - Trait: Magestic Horror - Lore of Madness: Deranged Transformation 10 x Crypt Ghouls (100) Cadaverous Barricade (40) Main Body Abhorrant Ghoul King on Royal Terrorgheist (420) - Artefact: Ethereal Amulet - Lore of Madness: Spectral Host - Mount Trait: Gruesome Bite 10 x Crypt Ghouls (100) Cadaverous Barricade (40) Rearguard 10 x Crypt Ghouls (100) Cadaverous Barricade (40) Total: 1000 / 1000 Extra Command Points: 0 Wounds: 51 Summonable options in addition to list - 20 Ghouls, 3 Flayers, 2 Varghulfs and 1 Infernal Courtier. What you could do is drop the endless spell and take the AKoZD instead of the AKoTG. Otherwise the rules limit configuration unless you go Flayer/Horror heavy with the relevant court allowing them as battleline but the numbers might be rejigging. Hope this helps ð

That's fair and in no way am I dismissing alternate opinions. Merely stating a difference. ð I have started a bedsheets army and death players got to stick together! ððĶī

I want to caveat this with I'm not a nighthaunt player and I do not own the model but isn't the use of entitlement contradictory here. The model was special edition and limited availability, yes it had rules but weren't they intended for the product it was sold with? "the belief that one is inherently deserving of privileges or special treatment" Surely the fact that a minority can use this model 'officially' is inherently unfair in a tournament or even social club environment. While it is cool to have that model and you can still use it in an agreement or in a casual game in a matched paly environment it would be not consistent as access is not wildly available. While I don't agree with the limited availability causing scarcity, (I am a FEC player so trust me I understand this as I still can't buy an official AAR model without paying extortionate prices). I feel this move is a fair one while sad for the minority who own it.

FAQ is up and we have the following changes for the people who just want to know the cold facts AKoTG up 20 points AAR up 40 points Horrors down 10 points Endless spells Chalice up to 50 Barricade up to 40 Stampede up to 70 Expected rises. Had to rejig my meeting engagements list to get everything in. What's everyone else's thoughts?
-
Yeah I got in late to the FEC party so luckily my scene is not sick of playing them as most of us are new from 40k. I hope it is soon and I feel for you with skaven and FEC you are bound to have a shake up in lists if not both. Weren't you hoping to switch back to the rat god's? Or was that someone else.
-
I'm thinking Arkhan in my 2000 list and Deadwatch because I like flayers and don't play in ultra competitive scene. Also my mate has given me some nighthaunt unpainted so want to expand into LoG or LoN list. As for FAQ I'm thinking a day before the Warhammer meeting engagement tournament, with the last model just packed snugly in the box and me happy with my final list ððð

So, what do we think of the new Contrast paints?
Blisterfeet replied to Greyshadow's topic in Age of Sigmar Discussions
Just wanting to add to the last few comments with evidence. I am a complete beginner to painting and was disheartened by results with normal paints and eventually was *hangs in shame* a player who just played unpainted with friends. Since contrast came out I now finished my first army (without using far more experienced friends) and it was a breeze with much better results than I have got using a wide variety of normal paints. I used the contrast spray and paint combo the only thing I found was to get a deeper shade of the used colour multiple coats are needed. Other than that I was happy with how quickly I could finish them and how they dried.

@XReN @ReAnimate Studios just finishing my army (with 30 ghouls) with contrast paint. I have found contrast a joy to work with being not the most skilled painter and the end results once you get the hang of using it are quite good. I also like using contrast and then picking details out with base/layer on bigger models speeds up the process. Just got a AKoTG, 2 Varghiests and Charnel Throne to finish for GW tourny end of month.

Thank you for this, would you recommend any particular artifacts? Also would you say Fyreslayers with KO is a better mix?
