And if range is removed, monsters are going to have a serious downgrade in utility.

The head's all wrong, the fangs are close but the structure is different, also the creature on this guy's back has no big crack, and has all 8 eyes, but the rumor engine one is clearly far more damaged. He'd need an option for a different thing on his back, and IIRC necromunda generally doesn't have a lot of options for things that aren't the main gangers (not sure what this guy is).

Great idea, eyes are not the same though

You two are probably right. But from some angles and squinting it almost matches.

As of about noon EST the FAQ and Download page are down. Maybe we get the AOS update today? 

Both are still working for me.

Just a few screen caps from AoS using ONLY 3.2 for context and ease of access

 

Whaaaat? When did Bonesplitterz get great?

And how many skaven players plan-scheme their next move, in your area??

Not sufficient-enough.

I've got several (4-5) Soulblight players in my area. But no Slaanesh players....

Where did you find that? The faq page still hasn't updated for me

Got it from Discord but apparently the link was briefly live.

Doubtful, 

But there are community generated apps out there like battlescribe that contain the AOS points and are updated regularly. 

Azyr was so much better than Battlescribe, imho. Guess I need to give BS another shot.

Doubt this, mostly because of the poor English in the supposedly quoted text. "Was inflicted a wounds". Sounds like something from a non-native speaker and not something taken from a GW book.

Allegedly it's a leak from an Italian book, so translated roughly.

GW is now offering 40k:Imperium in the States, what are the chances that they bring Mortal Realms here?

It wont be an elephant. it will have eagle claws and duck feet and a 36" reach, mortal wound causing squid trunk. 😝

I'd really feel for Slaves players if Lommies recieved a war elephant before them, like damn, straight slap to the face!! 🤣 

Who am I kidding though, that wont be till wave 7 of Loomies. 😁

Heh, in all seriousness though they do have some fantastic sculpts.

So excited for tomorrow!!! I've even been preplanning a paint scheme for the new bonesplitterz. 

Going with a "they tattoo themselves all black and less bright colors" scheme. Cant wait to get them under the brush!!👍

Great minds and such

It's always bugged me that the 1s digit in AoS is never used. What even have it?

Why don't we just say we are playing 200 point games. 5x Liberators cost 9 points. 12x Ogre Gluttons cost 40 points. Etc.

Because spending $600 on 200 points doesn't sound cool. 🤣

I’m hearing rumours about some communities working on their own faqs, with rule clearings and points changes.

Do you have any linkys on this? HeyWhoa once joked about rewriting the BoC battletome for Patreon supporters. TBH, I'd love something like this. 

[We Should All Be Thankful]

Mostly related to this, it seems like you can make an AoS army and submit it for the Battleforge promo contest. I would love to win a new AoS army for a 40k contest.

Hey guys, this is my first post 😃

I've only been back into the hobby for a few months but so excited about everything coming up, especially the Lord of Pain. How likely is it that I will be able to pick up this model on it's own, I have plenty of the other Slaanesh stuff in the S&P box. Do GW release individual models from boxes like this - eBay maybe? Thanks.

He will probably get released on his own, but that could be a long wait (the hero from Looncurse took about 6 months. There were heroes that took even longer). You'll probably be able to find them on ebay/miniswap/whatever but expect to pay a premium.

You had a Warpseer:/ the ultimate BS immunity tool. Should have saved the CP for the monks if you wanted to keep some around. Monks hugging a bell also helps.
What I would try out tho is the bell endless spell, BS immunity for any unit within 13", not wholly, so 1 pesty rat can be within with the tip of the base, and your immune, costs 40 points.

Well, I'm a dummy. I was thinking that the "Forth-forth, Children" ability was on the Clawlord, not the Warpseer. That's a huge mistake.

Double post!

[AoS 2 - Skaventide Discussion]

Oops

[AoS 2 - Skaventide Discussion]

So tonight I played against KO at 1500 points. I decided to try a non shooty list because I've always been outgunned by KO. 

Here's what I ran: 

Spoiler

LEADERS
Verminlord Warpseer (320) 
- Artefact : Suspicious Stone
Skaven Clawlord on Brood Horror (160) 
- General
- Mighty Warlord Command Trait : Verminous Valour
UNITS 
20 x Clanrats (120) 
- Rusty Blade
- 1 x Standard Bearers
- 1 x Standard Bell Ringers
20 x Clanrats (120) 
- Rusty Blade
- 1 x Standard Bearers
- 1 x Standard Bell Ringers
1 x Warp-Grinder (80) 
40 x Plague Monks (280) 
- Woe-stave
- 4 x Standard Bearers
- 4 x Plague Harbingers
ARTILLERY 
Warplock Jezzails (420) 

The KO player went first, used fly high and took out my Jezzails and 10 clan rats.

On my  first turn, my Warpseer took out a Gunhauler. I brought out the Monks and WG near an objective and failed my charge to get onto it. 

He won the next priority roll and went next. He flew high and then took out 28 Monks with shooting and I lost the remainder to Battleshock. 

So, I know that the Monks needed some kind of support (a hero would have been nice to pass battleshock), but not sure what would work. A Grey Seer and something to Skitterleap? Swap the Warpseer for a Deceiver and send the Clawlord along? 

Any other advice for handling KO? I tried to protect my backline (failed with the Jezzails, kept the Deceiver and Clawlord fine), but the range on those ships is brutal. 

Also, Warscroll Builder says that the Skaven Clawlord on Brood Horror is 160, Azyr says 180. Which is right? I don't see it listed in the Errata. 

Thanks!

Hi! I've got 20 Tzaangors to build, which I'll likely use as a blob of 20.

To sanity check my loadout, how does this look?

1 Twistbray w/ Savage Greatblade

1 Brayhorn w/ Savage GB

1 Icon Bearer w/ Savage GB

5 Normies w/ Savage GB

4 Mutants w/ Pair of Savage Blades

8 Normies w/ SB + Shield

Is there any reason to do more than 1 Icon or Brayhorn?
