Hey quick question,
Chaos Marauders really are on 25mm Bases?
For the new Battletome I'm looking to Rebase mi Gor to be my Marauders.
In the Baselist they state 25mm but I wont believe it^^
This is what I’m going to do too! Look a lot cooler than the current Marauder kit.

Yeah he seems like a really tricky dude to balance. Which is a shame. Hopefully at the very least he’ll get better rend on some of his weapons.
-
I think he’s referring to the image they showed that had Varanguard in it. But that image was just a cool army shot, not the actual contents of the SC
-
Yeah I really hope you don’t have to spam support heroes to buff Archaon up to use him, and that he can be awesome and reliable in a StD army.
Also it’s only been a couple of days and I’m already getting impatient... I want my heavily armoured freaks to watch the world burn with!

Any info on a release date?
In the huge list of leaks posted a little while ago, these dudes are meant to be purchasable on the 14th of December. So far those leaks have been on point so I can see it being legit.
I’m super pumped for the new kits and the ability to play undivided!

Like yourself and @Tiberius501I will be getting 2 - those warriors just look so nice 😍
Yep, 100% agree. 😀
-
I can’t see any duplicates personally. Some that are similar, but they all have different details. That said, even if they are snap fit, I’m with JackStreicher in getting 2 boxes.
-
I just went all in with Sylvaneth and have been building on my Cities of Sigmar force just before then and now you gotta do this... *sigh* I can pretty much chuck the idea of having only a couple of armies out the window...
EDIT: My only concern is that they’re possibly snap fit, as it wasn’t mentioned at all that these bros will be released separately and seem exclusive to the SC! box.
-
Perhaps my lonely Archaon will finally get an army to despoil with!
-
Yeah I’ll go with cooler
allying them to an Anvils of the Heldenhammer army and Cities of Sigmar force as undead bros living with them.

If you're going 30 I'd probably say swords. With spears you can get 3 rows in but you'll be getting an extra attack from Sons and hitting on 3s with swords is a big difference.
Damn, I was hoping you’d say spears because they look cooler haha.
Now I basically just have to think on whether I want to go better or cooler looking. 🤔
-
Quick question; I’m thinking of using the Sons of the Lichemaster as an ally. Not sure if it’s any good, but I just have enough room for the Necromancer and 30 skellies. Would it be better to run them with spears and have them in a tighter formation or go 2 rows of 15 dudes with swords?

Hello my Stormcast friends, while I get into the hobby and consider yet another army already (already have 3, 1 of them only bought a few weeks ago :S) I was looking at doing possibly an Anvils of the Heldenhammer army with the Sons of the Lichemaster mercenaries allied to them for a cool looking force.
Leaders
- Lord-Arcanum on Tauralon (General)
- Lord-relictor
- Necromancer
Battleline
- 10x Sequitors
- 5x Judicators w/ Bows
- 5x Judicators w/ Bows
- 30x Skillingtons
Artillery
- Celestar Balllista
Other
- 5x Evocators
- 3x Evocators on dracolines
-
Awesome thanks for that! I’m keen to try these bros out.
-
Alright thanks. So with the changes it’d look like this:
Leaders
- Freeguild General (General) w/ Blood of the Twelve command trait
- Lord-Arcanum (Adjutant)
- Freeguild General on Gryphon w/ Twinstones artefact
- Celestial Hurricanum with Celestial Battlemage
Battleline
- 10x Sword Guard
- 10x Sword Guard
- 10x Sword Guard
- 10x Handgunners
- 10x Handgunners
- 20x Greatswords
- 6x Gryph Knights
EDIT: Also, what would be the best unit to be the General’s retinue?
-
Ah thanks for all the suggestions.
One thing is that I have in my fluff that the General on griffon is the emperor of my free city (going with my own fluff with hammerhal rules), but it would be nice to get the added bonuses of the small guy being my General, getting the bodyguard thing as well. Maybe he lets his General take over in battles so I can have the General on foot as my General as you suggest.
And the other thing is I don’t want to go too MSU, so could I split the unit of 30 into a unit of 10 swords and a unit of 20 spears to sit behind them and spear dudes when the line gets charged?
EDIT: And another quick question; are spears viable now? Or is the +1 save for the swords still too valuable?
-
Hey friends, while I paint up my Sylvaneth, I was thinking of chucking down my forces of humanity with the new Cities book and using Hammerhal rules for my own empire. Here’s my list:
Leaders
- General on Gryphon (General)
- Battlemage
- Tank Commander
- Lord-arcanum
Battleline
-30x Sword+board (perhaps spears?)
-10x Handgunners
-10x Handgunners
-10x Greatswords
- 6x Gryph Knights
Behemoths
- Celestial Hurricanum
Total: 2000/2000
-
Just to add to all the questions and army lists, I wanted to make people feel better about themselves with my list:
Reapers of Vengeance
Leaders
- Archaon
- Secrator
Battleline
- 10x Blood Warriors
- 10x Blood Warriors
- 20x Bloodletters
Other
- 10x Chaos Knights
- 3x Varanguard
Total Points: 1980/2000

Yeah, add a Secrator to that and he’s laughing... It feels a little dirty, but I’m tempted >8D

Wow, that seems bonkers good, Archaon attacking twice in the Reapers of Vengeance!

Hey blood crazed psychos and skull taking murderers, I have a dumb question because I’m sort of new to Sigmar. While I’m primarily an Order player, I do have the swish bang Archaon model and was wandering if he’d take on the Slaughterhost Keyword and get to reap the benefits. It says all dudes with the KHORNE Keyword get to be part of it, but I have a feeling that it’s stated named characters like him can’t join these kinds of things. I wanted to ask anyway though.
Thanks

Thanks for the responses guys, this forum is super helpful and nice, not sure why I’ve only just found you.

Treelord Ancient or Spirit of Durthu?

Thanks everyone for the replies. Thinking about it, I may not go the Outcasts anyway. It doesn’t really give me any faster deployment compared to my original list, and I’m not sure the additional artefact helps all that much compared to the extra bodies. I may try it out in the future though if I’m finding I need it.
And I’ll try out the bow hunters and Arch-rev buffing them. Potentially on the turn she needs to use the Kernel, with her speed, she may be able to fly up the board and get within the 18” range to use it. I’ll have to do some testing.

My only issue with the Warcry war bands being used is that if you want more than a box in a unit you have really obvious duplicated dudes for the special weapons and stuff. But they all do look sweet.
