  1. Well I have the results from trying out the Akhelian corps list at my local small tournament. Went 2-1 but should have been 3-0 (first match my opponent was rather slow in taking turns and we ran out of time at the beginning of round 3... I was fairly confident I would have beat him had we continued) First match was against High Elves. Focal points. This was the one that ended really early. Despite his dragon lord absolutely obliterating my leviadon in one turn and then getting a double turn going into br2 with the dragon still in my backfield, I was able to claw back, holding my objective ground with Ishlaen and then killing the dragon with a morrsarr charge . The morrsarr would have then been able to mop up the rest of his board but alas the timer went and he had me by 1 VP Round 2 was vs a pure Pestilens Skaven. Better Part of Valor. I held back and kept my objectives forcing him to run his way across the board to me. On turn two he left his back line exposed, brought in the morrsarr and deleted a unit and took one of his objectives. Burned all mine objectives (including the one I took from him) and he conceded — nothing he could have done to properly react to the morrsarr now in his backfield and the rest of my force able to now advance Without worry. Last match was against Gristlegore FEC. Total Conquest. Played cagey and then thought I was gonna be in trouble when he double turned me into round 2. But was able to hold off two zombie dragons with my two Ishlaen squads hugging a ship and supported by the leviadon, while my 3 sharks and king squared off against the terrogheists. Sharks killed one terrogheist and then the king on RTG killed off my king and the sharks. Morrsarr came on and blew up the gkotg securing an entire half of the board for me. Then it was just mopping up the zombie dragons which the ishlaen and leviadon handled alone, somewhat to my surprise but I was rolling well and the RR all wounds against monsters from dhom-hain was absolutely clutch. My opponent conceded on top of 4 (iirc) when we did the math on objectives and there wasn’t really any pathway to victory for him. Aside from the timeout on the first round it was all around a great day of gaming and I was pleasantly surprised with my list. Only thing that felt useless was my tidecaster, but she did fail to cast arcane corrosion probably like 50% of the time...
  2. Oh right haha, I knew I put him in there for a reason! Cheers. otherwise does it seem a good start?
  3. Hey all, thinking about getting into these naked bois and need some intro advice. I’m not new to aos but haven’t played fyreslayers before (for or against) and a lot of the lists online seem to be before the hearthguard unit size was reduced. Here is what I was thinking for an initial list: Am I on the right track? Any advice or alterations? Edit: Actually, I should probably drop the runemaster for a runesmiter on foot huh? Seems like he is just all around better... that relying on 6s from the runemaster seems kinda wack
  4. Oo that’s a good shout on cloud of midnight, could be a fun little trick
  5. Cheers thanks for the insight! Running corrosion is tempting, not like her one dispell is gonna really protect me much anyway. I also thought about going 6 and 3 with the morrsarr but the number of times my 6 man has failed to kill its intended target after the deep strike and then proceed to get bogged down the rest of the game has me itching for the killing power of 9. I would like to have the battalion but I worry about holding objectives with just Akhelians, though I have a lot of big bases to help zone people off them I suppose. wish I had time to get a couple practice games in to test the merits of one vs the other. Might end up just going full Akhelian for the fluff of it. Have to u had any issue with battleshock on the sharks? I was already planning on keeping my king around them anyway but it’s a shame to burn (or rather always save one) a cp on it. Could give the king lord of storm and seas (I think that’s the bravery buff one?) but it’s hard to give up those extra wounds. Any thoughts on a second artifact? I’ve toyed with wraithbow on the scryer for a rad bit extra MW threat when he comes into the edge... I’ve gernally found he doesn’t do anything at all once he deepstrikes so it gives him something possibly useful.
  6. Have a tournament this Saturday and thinking of running this list. Any thoughts? Anyone tried out the 3 shark unit yet? I could drop the thralls or tidecaster to get the Akhelian corps so I can reduce my drops, but I feel it’s probably not worth losing magic deny/the bodies. I know I ~should~ probably drop the leviadon but he’s new and I want to give him his debut!
  7. Not the best camera but the murder turtle is done!
  8. Thank you! I use magnetic transport so shouldn’t be too much trouble to move about (hopefully!). The flight stand and the turtle are magnetized as well to help in that regard. will post another once the turkey is done too
  9. Just finished up the base for leviadon! Stoked to get started on the turtle
  10. Thanks for the advice! The cygor is in there at least initially as I was basing this off an initial investment in 3 start collecting boxes (and I really love the model). I do think I would ultimately phase him out for something else -- perhaps bullgors as you suggest. Cheers!
  11. Hello all! Seeking some advice from you mighty beastlords! When I first was looking into AoS I was sure I was going to start off with beast of chaos, as I absolutley love the aesthetic, however for various reasons I ended up going a different direction. Now, two armies later (1 order, 1 destruction), I am turing my eye back towards chaos and wondering if this is the time to finally start what I wanted to at the beginning of it all. Now, I know BoC is not in the best spot right now, and while I don't need to win all the time, I'd love to be able to make the games interesting. My local scene is semi competitive, with a few folks bringing heavy hitter lists here and there (for tournaments especially). The following is what I was thinking for an initial list.. what do you think, is it viable? Is running straight BoC just plain inferior to running beastmen under one of the chaos gods (I'm looking at you Slaanesh!)? Any advice or insight would be great! Allegiance: Beasts of Chaos Greatfray: Gavespawn Mortal Realm: Hyish ** LEADERS ** Beastlord (90) - Artefact: Mutating Gnarlblade Great Bray Shaman (100) - General - Command Trait: Unraveling Aura - Artefact: Aetherquartz Brooch - Lore: Titanic Fury (or Tendrils of Atrophy) Great Bray Shaman (100) - Lore: Vicious Stranglethorns ** UNITS ** Bestigors x10 (120) Bestigors x10 (120) Bestigors x10 (120) Ungors x10 (60) - Mauls and Half Shields Gors x10 (70) - Blades and Beastshields Gors x10 (70) - Blades and Beastshields Ungor Raiders x30 (240) Ungor Raiders x30 (240) Chaos Spawn x 1 (50) ** BEHEMOTHS ** Ghorgon (160) Ghorgon (160) Cygor (140) ** BATTALIONS ** Desolating Brayherd (150) 1990/2000
  12. You need the gnoblar blast keg on someone unfortunately, so no ethereal amulet
  13. I feel like for the backfield threat to actually be a threat you need a bigger unit of cats. Actually just played around with this idea some more and came up with this list. Have no idea if it would work but I’m tempted to try it out some day: Allegiance: Ogor Mawtribes Mawtribe: Underguts **Leaders** Icebrow Hunter - General - Mass of Scars Tyrant - Gruesome Trophy Rack - Fateseeker Huskard on Stonehorn - Gnoblar Blast Keg - Black Clatterhorn (or Metalcruncher) Butcher - Lore: Molten Entrails ** Troops** - Frostsabres x8 - Frostsabers x 2 - Mournfang Pack x4 - Leadbelchers x4 - Leadbelchers x4 - Ironblaster - Ironblaster - Ironblaster ** Battalions ** - Skall 2000 points on the nose Ram the huskard and his mournfang escort up the middle of their lines while the Ironblasters and Leadbelchers blast away. Bring the big unit of cats and the Hunter in on their backfield to cause headaches. Small cats to snag loose objectives/set up quick screens
  14. This underguts + hunter/cats talk got me thinking... even fit in a stone horn... would be fun to try at least! What say you? WarscrollBuilderList.pdf
