  1. Let's agree to disagree shall we? I am borderline in love with the priority roll ❤️ and would probably stop playing if it was removed fully. Most of the new changes have me excited, and it looks to me to be a more dynamic game. Looking forward to see pitched battle profiles to get a better grasp on what the game will really look like 🙂
  2. Guerrilla Miniature Games is saying that you roll off, and lowest drops wins ties... Wonder what is correct?! 😮
  3. Obvious FAQ And the intent of the rule I like.. Guess 3.0 wasn't flawless after all (not sure anyone expected them to be though, except maybe GW themselves )
  4. In my opinion the biggest effect of this change, is going to be the fact that you have to spend more CP to buff all those small units now. Instead of mostly being able to buff up one big unit to smack face.
  5. I strongly disagree costing, lets say 20-30 points extra would hurt them alot. Maybe even 10 points would do it, but that is questionable.
  6. Happy that you, to my knowledge, are not in charge of deciding point values for this game 👍
  7. You forgot to mention broken artifacts, missing subfactions (in the battletome), a really weak spell lore and just a huge lack of command abilities and synergies in general..! (And I'm really trying not to mention how broken the Azyr app is in regards to Slaanesh (and a lot of other stuff)). God I hope the Twins and 3.0 is awesome! PS. I STILL prefer the new playstyle to the old one we had, so there is that
  8. I would in no world take Painbringers over Twinsouls.. Re-rolling the save only in melee made the call really easy, before that I was probably 85/15 towards Twinsouls... Math doesn't lie, 2" range, 8"move.. It's not even a contest if you ask me 🙂
  9. 100% legal until they omit it from the FAQ. By the logic of checking Azyr, for if things are legal, artifacts in Godseekers Hosts are no longer legal 😂 😂 😂 Azyr is a hot mess and should be taken as such.. Sadly..
  10. Interestingly, with the wording in the old book it wouldn't have worked. But in the new book I'm 99,99% sure it does 👍
  11. I bought the tome in app yesterday, still not updated though 😁
  12. 🤔 What book is that? Looks nothing like mine.. I started playing some 6 months after Slaanesh got their last book. Is what you have posted from before that? 🙂 (you literally wrote pre battletome, my mistake) 🤣 I can see how it is not clear at all from what you posted, I have just never seen that page myself before.. It has not been a that much of a problem post battletome though, right? Because I think that it is pretty clear 👍
  13. This is to my knowledge not correct. The wording was always "by an attack" or "a spell cast", so abilities and endless spells never worked with RAW. 😉
  14. Not really, so units I didn't use, that I don't see myself using basically ever is an easier question for me to answer Slaangors... (snip) Painbringers (maybe) Shardspeaker (maybe) Hellflayer Viceleader Contorted Epitome (maybe) This is based on how exciting and/or strong I find the rules
  15. Sorry for posting a lot.. 😅 .. But I guess what I really would like to get across, is that the game I had today with the new book, was honestly my most fun game with Slaanesh ever (started collecting them fall 2019). I'm overall very positive about the changes, but still sad/disappointed because they could pretty easily have made it even greater. So if you feel a little down about the new book, cheer up a bit and give them a go.. You might be pleasantly surprised and really like their new playstyle, like I do 🥰
  16. Not really, but they were between a rock and a hard place. Had 5 left when I got to attack with them (first turn he locked them in combat with morathi, so they retreated out and took the middle objective, hoping for the double). They killed 2½ Blood Sisters and did a few wounds to his Ironscale. He clutched like 3 6++ on the Blood Sisters and they where in their defensive stance He mentioned that he was very impressed he had to focus them with so much to kill them propper. He has been used to everything Slaanesh just folding over when he looks at it
  17. Lord of Pain did 6 wounds to Morathi, 4 of them from bouncing back Twinsould Tanked A LOT of his output in turn two (and died, but still) Blissbarb Seekers where as flexible as I had hoped taking points, doing bow stuff 🏹 My Keeper spiked hard and deleted 10 Blood Sisters after removing the screen with shooting, rolling 6s for both claws and having the Aqshy artifact and re-rolling to wound for his command trait. Dread Pageant lived up to what I expected, they are pure blenders for 120 points (also buffed them with Lord of Pain's command ability for even more fun) Sigvald I threw away with really bad positioning, so better luck next time to mr. naked butt 😂 Blissbarb Archers where fine, but lost a unit turn 1 and turn 2, so they didn't get to do a whole lot (also lost 1 unit of Blissbarb Seekers turn 1 to poor deployment) Only ever got about 10 DP because everything got blendered (summoned Seekers for some late game objective play), and locus had no impact in the game what so ever.. But as I said, I really really liked how the army felt like Can't wait for my models to get here so I can start to hobby, and get some games in that is not on TTS (it's just not the same having Eidolon of Mathlann as a standin for Sigvald ).
  18. Played Invaders Host Lord of Pain (general) Sigvald Keeper (general) Masque 10x Twinsouls 11 Blissbarb Archers 11 Blissbarb Archers 5x Blissbarb Seekers 5x Blissbarb Seekers The Dread Pageant Burning Skull EXTRA CP Played against Daughters of Khaine From memory he had: Morathi Ironscale Bloodwrack Medusa 10 Blood Sisters 5 Blood Sisters 5 Blood Sisters 10 Blood Stalkers Khainite Shadowstalkers Khainite Shadowstalkers Bloodwrack Viper EXTRA CP He took first turn and I never got the chance for a double. game was decided on the roll-off for turn 5 👍
  19. Had my first new book TTS game today, and overall it went exactly as expected.... .... Our new book is over the mountains more fun to play than the old.. Really enjoy the new possible plays you can make 🙂 Not only that, but my hot take puts us right about in the fat middle, which is perfect, because the game is better off bringing Seraphon and Co. down a notch, and Sylvaneth and Co. up a notch if I am asked.. If they had differentiated our daemonic warscrolls more, given us some new command abilities, spells and sub alligences, this book had been 10/10 Instead its a good book, but with several flaws that is probably sadly beyond FAQ fixing.. Still happy though 👍
  20. I was reaffirmed that both channels are for the casual audience only, and nice entertainment for when you hobby. They had no clue what they where doing playing poorly with poor lists and forgetting a ton of rules.. That should not be the basis for a discussion on if the book is strong/fine/fun or anything even remotely close..
  21. While a FAQ would be helpful, I really don't read the rules the same way. Rules as written states that you do not allocate wounds before all attacks by the unit has been made. So I know I will play it as still being good, unless they ****** it up in the FAQ 😉
  22. I wish I could see this the way you do.. But no, here are some of my problems with the new book.. Mind you, none of my complaints are aimed at power level. This is not a comprehensive list, but something I wrote last night off the top of my head: -Seeker/Exalted Chariots and Hellflayers not differentiated? -Daemonettes still have little to no synergy within the army? -Slaangors be Slaangors, let's not talk about those.. -Keeper weapon options not changed to be more engaging interesting or internally balanced between each other. -Twinsouls, a unit where not a single guy has the same loadout on the miniature has 1 weapon profile? -A large portion of the new mortal units have the exact same boring, and with very little impact rule of MWs on 6s to wound (some are not even in addition). -None to very little changes to old battalions which come off as uninspired. -Some small spell changes but none which are interesting (no new spells on old warscrolls). Syll'eske got more interesting though, cool This was just off the top of my head.. I'm sure I could find more, so while the new models are cool, and will spice up the look of the army, and our DP changes seem cool and way more simple to micro manage (count together).. I am very very very disappointed in the new book.. I suspect the FAQ team did the book tbh, they lacked data
  23. While I own some 2500pts of StD (Archaon drags that up a lot) I like this change We have enough warscrolls in our own book to look for answers now instead of going where the grass is greener for our juice (I'm looking at you Marauders). It still boggles my mind why the WarCom didn't think to spoil us with some of this info throughout the week, instead of us finding out this way
  24. Just woke up.. And this right here is my biggest question.... Like, What the F****** F*** where they thinking? ALL of this is AWESOME news and just reignited my lust for opening up that wallet!
