    Can't tell on the riders but that's definitely the veiled woman there behind the archers.

     

    Can anyone do a photoshop on those hammer elves to move the bullhead down to replace their heads?

    Found that online.
    I have to say I don't like the whole new range. The bodies/pose/bits can make excellent basis for conversion but as is, it's major No-No for me.

    A small town in France, and the service is the normal delivery service of the post. It was marked as "delivered" by the post, so my conclusion is that it was stolen either from the post-box or "intercepted" at the moment of delivery. In any case, since the post says it was delivered, it is very hard to get a refund :(

    edit: let's look at the bright side instead. The second Stardrake, courtesy of ebay, arrived safely :D

    Ah la Poste. Never get something sent during holidays or stress intensive periods. That's when they hire temporary workers and the chances your items are gonna get missing increases. Whenever I can I always get stuff delivered to relay points. They can't cheat with those. Or you can be unlucky like me and have a stupid postman trying to shove an item that doesn't fit, into your mailbox, leading to your item not fully inside your mail box and thus anybody can take it!

    Pics of a book I ordered from ebay which luckily wasn't stolen :

    PS : Depending on the card you use you might get a refund from your bank ?

    oh really? I was expecting the delivery from GW (of lord Kroak, ofc) by the end of last week but still nothing in sight and I am already stressing that it got stolen (wouldn't be the first time, unfortunately :(). Maybe I can still hope if you are also experiencing delays...

    Stolen ? Where do you live ? What service do you use ?

    Spontaneously I feel like the Prime's weakness means it's a more risky list. It'll require more finesse than the comet recycling variant.

    Actually, the Prime can survive a bit more if you can place him inside a terrain and cast mystic shield on him. It's very situational though, but I had mine survive thanks to that. Bonus points if you get charged when inside a terrain with staunch defender on.

    I think that these accusations that double drake + kroak is going to be the new meta to be both baseless and foolish.

    After all, its the triple stardrake + kroak you have to worry about:

    Ex:

    Drakesworn Templar
    Drakesworn Templar
    Drakesworn Templar
    Lord-Castellent
    Lord Kroak
        ally
    5x Liberators
    5x Liberators
    5x Liberators

    Comes out to 2k points exactly

    Quick, buy your stardrakes now before they go out of stock :P

    This list is a risky proposition! Draksworn aren't tanks like LCoSD, but one of them can be 3+ imperious to rend with the brooch or 4++ with Ignax. But the two others can be dealt with "easily" if you face a rend heavy army.
    Kroak could give rr1 on one of them. Castellant shine his light (you can't heal with his ability cause you ain't got a 1+ [Staunch+ light].

    Plus It's quite sad to take Kroak without endless spells

    Thats why they shouldnt nerf it, ppl buying Stardrakes is a WIN

    Well, I was tired of asking my friend to lend me his Stardrakes, soooooo.
    DAMN YOU GW!

    I hate you for the incoming nerf!

    100% customers would give money and happily be nerfed again.

    I would like to know if GW read the stuff here, would be nice if they do.

    I woudln't count on that sadly. I felt like you too. I started WFB in 2014, just to see it crushed to birth AOS.
    I swore I would never play AOS because of what it did to the Old world, then in started to play last year, with SCE, because they were kind of cheap to get.
    I bought a batch of evocators/sequitors and bam, one month later, they got nerfed !!!

    But you can still have fun with you own, at smaller points level, vanguard are very effective due to their teleporting moves! Try against a frien of yours 1250/1500 games. Vanguard can be annoying to deal with ;)

    P.S.

    Apologies for long haranguing. I just couldn't find any half competitive SCE lists without Anvilstrike nowadays. Seeing the new Seraphon update simply added insult to the injury. Nevertheless I will try to be more open-minded regarding this topic.

    Then you haven't played Starcast.

    I dread to say Starcast might be approaching netlist territory (not the best or a guaranteed winner but there are a large chunk of armies that'll hate this)

    Will still be wrecked by 6 Frosthorns ^^

    Here is a list I would love to play someday 

     

     Allegiance: Stormcast Eternals
    - Stormhost: Anvils of the Heldenhammer

    Leaders
    Lord-Aquilor (180)
    - General
    - Command Trait: Deathly Aura
    - Artefact: Strife-ender
    - Mount Trait: Wind Runner
    Knight-Venator (120)
    - Artefact: Spellshield
    Knight-Azyros (100)
    - Mystic Light (Artefact): Lantern of the Tempest
    Knight-Zephyros (100)
    - Artefact: Blade of Heroes

    Battleline
    5 x Vanguard-Hunters (110)
    - Boltstorm Pistols and Shock Handaxes
    5 x Vanguard-Hunters (110)
    - Boltstorm Pistols and Shock Handaxes
    5 x Vanguard-Hunters (110)

    3 x Vanguard-Palladors (180)

    Extra Command Points: 3
    Allies: 0 / 400

    What's the point of playing Anvils with this list ? You don't benefit much since you've only got a 3 man unit able to use the CA.

  12. Just now, Marcvs said:

    Yeah but with the +2 you could use it 4 times to recast the comet everry turn. Does the +2 to unbind applies to dispelling your own spells?

    In all freaking fantasy setting, mages dispell, but GW thoughts it'd be cool to call the same thing with two different terms ...
    Anyway

    I see... Hm. And how do we know her point cost?

    My bad. No specific points for her now. But since she s a Knight Questor you could play her for 100points if your opponents fine with it. But she s not good honestly. She d need to have better rend to be reall effective against monsters. A 5 man protector unit is 180 points. If she had the same rule as them, giving -1 to shooting if she s in front on an allied unit, she d be moaaar useful, and still be 100points ofc.

    Hey guys, quick question!

    Larissa Shadowstalker. Is she worth getting? Is she even legal? She's not on any GHB list or in the Warscroll Builder... So, can you use her special rules in Matched Play? What is her point cost, if so?

    She is legal. I think she's 140 points. I don't think she's worth it.
