Hello green friends, i have a question for you. Does the spell "Breath of Gorkamorka" also double the run roll? e.g. I succesfully cast the spell on a unit of Savage big Stabbas, let's say i don't get a double so i just double the movement characteristic and make them fly, and roll a 5 to run them, do i double the run roll aswell and get a 20" inch moove (5"x 2 + 5" x 2) or just a 15" moove (5" x 2 + 5 run roll)?

A question, can we spend DPs for realms command ability? or we just can't use them at all?

I'm not salty, I apologize if I come off as such. I'm just pointing out that a lot of people had ideas about the state of OBR that are not supported by actual facts. I find it odd that those similar people often have no such concerns about other armies that share similar alleged "problems" such as IDK who has one valid unit, or HGB which are PE mortek guard except better in every way.
It's ok man you don't even need to apologize, maybe i expressed bad myself and my statement, i'm a OBR player aswell, has been my love since the release, and most of the times i'm well known as "that guy" just for playing it (think that i play the soulreaper and never played a single catapult so you can imagine). I agree with you that the petrifex era in general gave us a bad reputation, but luckily new tomes and those new realm rules (sorry for that again XD), as long as no more multiple fnp will change people's mind.

Of all of those lists, half of them were the build you were mentioning. 5/10 of them were not that build. That is not dominating the meta, it isn't even dominating inter-faction diversity. I mean if you want to call five lists out of 10 examples that did well at a few tournaments dominating the meta, that's fine, but it literally isn't true based on the very information you provided.
Can't understand your point and why so salty, well then i apologize for the form, had to say: petrifex + double catapult was a list a lot present in the meta pre nerf, not dominating, are you ok with that?

"Mmmh Petrifex + double catapult dominated the meta till the nerf in truth"
This statement is both completely false, and the part of your statement I interpreted as a complaint. If it wasn't meant as such, then it is just a false statement. However, my point still stands in that MP + Katakros + Double crawler will in fact be the new list that OBR plays.Where is it false? that's just a small example, btw you misunderstood, not complaining about nothing, i'm just happy about realm rules, for the third time XD
BTW enjoy the truth XD

This is just literally not true.. at all? PE had multiple different builds that had varying degrees of success, from Nagash to Cav heavy to running Kata and Arkan. Some even had stalkers and Morghasts. Furthermore, even if your statement was true, which again, it just isn't, the changes to PE has had no effect on catapult, which is the real source of your complaint. If anything, I welcome your compaints in a few months when you realize that the next best OBR build is Kata + 2 crawlers, so pretty much the same with less diversity.
Sorry but where am i complaining about something? I just said that i'm happy with the realm rules since help ppl shut down heavy ranged lists, soz if you took it personal but was just a statment about how happy i am about that change .-. (Why should i even complain, i just play local tournaments composed by the same 10-15 players XD)

If OBR had that kind of advantage their ITC rankings would have been significantly higher. Rather their tournament “win” ranking in general would be. LRL and Seraphon both already have means to ignore blocking terrain. Khadron mobility on sky-vessels and balloon-boys can lessen the effect on their shooting. So it’s rather convenient we have a broken realm that mostly effects older or basic books.
Personally I’m not a fav of adding another battlefield complexity set-up that is apparently forced by match play rules. That material should have stayed optional for when there is time and will to do it.
Mmmh Petrifex + double catapult dominated the meta till the nerf in truth. And personally i'm in favour of evrything that makes games and strategies more deep, and another terrain feature gives alot of deeps, since you are forced to build a list thinking about that aswell, and not only watching warscrolls etc. but that's only my opinion, and glad those changes happened.

If game options are that toxic then they aren’t worth playing with. WAAC Players are the worst.
Well i don't think it's toxic to give players the opportunity to mitigate the power of shooting meta, also if u spend all your fire force in 2 broken pieces that destroy evrything in 36" radius it's fair for an opponent to counter this.
-
i think the problem with crawlers now is that in a matched play you have a 50% to nearly autoloose if your opponent roll higher and choose ulgu.

Umm I don´t like Soulreaper´s, but the model is cool (in other army he can be a good wizard, but in ours...). But your list is great and you said that you have 10 kavalos, so win the tournament and tell us the battle reports!!
I´m using 1 soulblade for each 10 morteks always.
Tomorrow I will do the last battle report of the tournament, the big final vs Kharadron!! When I have it I will post the video here!
Thx for the good luck!
I know the soulreaper is not that great expecially for the point cost, but it's a model i really care about since it's a gift by my gf (but with new ghb i think he is not totally useless since being a hero/wizard could make him score some more point, in addiction i really like both empower nadirite weps and drain vitality so the possibility to cast both can be useful sometimes!)
I asked to my local club friends to bring some competitive lists for testing it out before the tournament, and thuesday will be OBR vs Sylvaneth, will write here results and sort of a BR :).
P.s. @El Antiguo Guardián, thx for all the reply and the hints, appreciate really much! And waiting for the last battle report vs the flying dwarves!

Yes, that´s probably better!!
At the end i'm trying something similar to your list and man, it's a real blast.
Atm i'm testig this and by far the most competing list i played with great results:
Mortis Praetorian
Katakros (general)
Soulmason (Empower nadirite weapnons)
Soulreaper (artefact -3 rend on wep / Drain vitality)
Mortek x 20
Mortek x 20
Kavalos x 10
Stalker x 6
Just one thing i'm concerned about, is it worth to run the 2 soulblade in the units of morteks? Or just go ith the nadirite weps?

I prefer all of them with spirit blades if your tournament is WYSIWIS (what you see...).
I though that you can use kavalos instead of morteks if you´re playing Petrifex.
Also I prefer bigger units of Mortek Guards: 20-40.
I think that one unit of Inmortis is enough for Arkhan, and I hate Morghast: each dice you fail is critic. I think you can do that work better with Kavalos and/or Stalkers.
First of all thx for the reply. I got 2 units of kavalos, and i like to play alot in the hero phase, do u think something like that would work better?
Petrifex Elite
Arkhan
Liege Kavalos General - Helm of the ordained
Soulmason Godbone Armour - Arcane CommandMortek x 20
Mortek x 20
Kavalos x 5
Kavalos x 5
Immortis x 3
Kavalos Lance battallion

Hello. I play in a semi-competitive local club and time to time we do some tournament aswell. I know Petrifex has been nerfed to the ground but what do u guys think about that 2k list?
Petrifex Elite
Arkhan
Liege Kavalos General - Helm of the ordained
Soulmason Godbone Armour - Arcane CommandMortek x 20
Mortek x 10
Mortek x 10Aegis Immortal Battallion
Immortis x 3

Morghast x 2

Guys what do you think about that list? Keep in mind that i play in a semicompetitive game club, and hopefully will start some tournament when the pandemic end.
Volturnos - General
Eidolon aspect of the sea
6 x Morrsarr
6 x Morrsarr
6 x Morrsarr
3 x Ishlaen
3 x Ishlaen
1 x cp
The other option is to replace aspect of the sea with the storm one and drop the extra cp, taking another 2 units of 3 morrsarr instead of ishlaen.

@Lionheart what is the argument for each priest not being able to attempt blood boil in the same turn?
The priest warscroll says "in your hero phase, this model can chant one of the following prayers...". No restrictions are mentioned for multiple models with this ability.
Page 76 of the battletome; Blood Blessings of Khorne; "In addition to any other prayers they can chant, each Priest knows one blessing... Each blood blessing of khorne can only be chanted once per turn, regardless of how many priests know that prayer."
So there is a specific restriction noted for the Blood Blessings (Killing Frenzy, Bronzed Flesh, etc), but no such restriction is noted for the warscroll prayers (bloodboil and bloodbind). Blood Blessing are done at the start of the hero phase, warscroll prayers are done during the hero phase. Blood Blessings are limited to khorne allegiance (i.e. slaughterpriests taken as allies in a different allegiance could not take blood blessings). Blood Blessings cause 1 mortal wound on a roll of 1, warscroll prayers cause D3 mortal wounds. The two sets of prayers are different and have different restrictions/rules that apply to them.
Finally the battletome designer's commentary (https://www.warhammer-community.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/age_of_sigmar_blades_of_khorne_designers_commentary_en.pdf) says; "Q: If a Priest knows more than one prayer, can it attempt to chant each of them? A: Yes, as long as no other restrictions apply."
So where is the restriction that says a priest cannot attempt bloodboil if another priest has already done so?
This is how it is played in tournaments and every battle report you can find on youtube so double blood boil away! In fact tell your friend to get a 3rd priest for triple blood boil!!!
First of all thx for the answer, it was great!! Btw they say that if u treat blood boil as a "ability" you can't reroll cause of throne, instead if u play it as a pray u can't spam it with different priests, we know that this is impossible, we saw alot of battle report, and for use the rule is pretty easy to read, but for them it's a subject to discuss evrytime (maybe they are being hurt by some 6mw bb XD). There is some battle report from tournaments i can show them?
-
Hello evryone, a friend of mine it's a khorne player, we both play from 3-4 months only and in our little community there is a big problem: they don't want him to use 2 times blood boil with 2 different priest per turn. There is something official he can show them? i can't find anything and they said he can't trust internet community or report on YT.
(Sorry for bad english and ty in advance for the help)

Hello everyone. I would like to know the guidelines for playing the Anvilstrike list, like the deployment (what to put in reserve and if put anything at all there), best targets for the raptors, which turn should i choose/hope for at the beginning of the battle, some general advice in short.
I'm playing a 1500 pt. version of the classic list (cause in my local store they play around 1500 for now, maybe september we will upgrade our lists to 2k) and it looks like that:
- 1 Incantor (general)
- 1 Azyros
- 1 Relictor (with translocation)
- 3 x 5 Liberators
- 1 x 5 Evocators
- 1 x 3 Aetherwings
- 1 x 9 Vanguard Raptors
- geminids of uhl-gysh

One prayer from the codex, Divine light for ex, and one of his personal prayer.
Thx for the answer, but there is an official source i can show at my local group? They want it =/

Guys one question: how many prayers can for example a Lord-Relictor do in a single phase? the one from the warscroll plus translocation for example or only one?
And if he can cast both of them (i know the 2 storm can't be casted in the same phase, it is written) where can i find an official rule?
Soz for bad english, hope u can help me.

Hello guys, need help with one question:
If a unit of Mighty Skullcrusher charge a unit of Vanguard Raptor (with the prime in it), wich ability have to be solved first, the one for the skullscrusher to inflict the MW on the charge or the one of the Raptors that inflict MW on the chargers?

Anvilstrike is arguably the best list in the game with seemingly nothing that can consistently counter it... but it is only as good as the general.
If you play it just right it seems like there's really nothing your opponent can do. Aetherwings stop melee, teleporting raptors win the ranged game, incantors stop magic long enough to let the raptors shoot, and evocators kill everything they touch.
The only truly hard matchup is the mirror 🤣
May i ask how is composed that list?

Especially as Anvils you want to combine the Longstrikes to one squad.
Oh u opened my eyes there, ofc it's alot better, now i understand! thx mate

Do u think it's better play it as knight-Zephyros? (maybe with the soul thief artefact)
42 minutes ago, Lucur said:Blacktalon's Shadowhammer has no points in the GHB, might be illegal?
So, at the end of the day, it's just better to play the celestant prime version of this list?
Really thx for the answer

Hello evryone! Sorry if my english is not perfect but i'll try my best!
I'm a new player of AOS and i just bought the SC! Stormcast Vanguard, and i want to slowly build a 2k list around that models, for the moment i aim to be atleast competitive in the local tourneys.
The list is:
- Allegiance: Anvils of the Heldenhammer
- Lord Aquilor: General, Deathly Aura, Wind Runner
- Knight Azyros: Soulthief
- Knight Venator: Luckstone
- Lord Castellant
- Lord Relictor: Translocation
- Neave Blacktalon
- 3 x 5 Vanguard Hunters (storm sabre?)
- 3 x 3 Vanguard Raptors with Longstrike Crossbow
- 2 x 3 Aetherwings
- 1 x 3 Palladors (Starstrike Javelin?)
- Battalion: Blacktalon's Shadowhammers
I saw lot of lists using the celestant-prime instead of the battalion, is it rly much better?
Thanks for the attention and for the help
(I did the math on the new GBH2019, should be an exact 2k points list)

Simply he cannot run 3 ballista at 1000 pts, the maximum number for artillery in a Vanguard matched play its 2
