    I just want to add one thing after reading the disciples of tzeentch tome I think tzeentch is trying to find/free slaanesh. Possibly, going by this eldar release slaanesh should be "soon". 

    Also rumors pointed to a new N'kari. 

    I haven't been paying attention, what is  N'kari supposed to be up to these days?

    I don't see any of your concern in these models.

    The new guys incorporate more fantasy (lower case 'f') elements than any Eldar models we've seen to date + the Mistweaver could pass for a Farseer at a glance and if you told me the Tenerbral Shard was a Dark Eldar model I'd believe you.

    Er so I was just looking at my witch hunter warscroll did they change it at any point? I recall his special ability affected wizards only but now it's wizards and daemons. 

    Am I remembering wrong? Or could this be a sign of the future? 

    You're going senile Nagash. ;) They've been doing D3 wounds to wizards and daemons since the compendiums.

  4. Underdog gambits look great, and like a much better way to reward a weaker warband than the proven method of just chucking more gold and xp at them at the end of a game.

    The rule of three sounds like a good way of curbing AoE stuff that would otherwise dominate such small games. I'd maybe think about changing the name of your "mortally wounded" injury result to just about anything else so it can't be confused with the popular way of bypassing save rolls at a glance. Is cripplingly wounded still PC?

    The new scenarios sound very fun and hopefully I'll get the time to playtest them this time round!

    I'm Curious why there's hardly anyone talking about the "The Order of Azyr" and the "Van Helsing'ish" hand crossbow sneak preview of last Wednesday . I feel like this could a sort of Witch Hunter faction.

    It did get talked about. Last wednesday.

  6. The book's contents and some battalion info from BoLS:

    Quote

    Aether-eater Host: All Screamers, Discs and Chariots. These units heal themselves by unbinding enemy spells.

    Changehost : Identical to the version from Grand Alliance Chaos, Tricksy movement indeed. Moving on…

    Overseer’s Fate-twisters: Lord of Change and little daemonic heroes. They expand and allow rerolls from your Destiny Dice pool.

    Omnicient Oracles: Fateweaver and 3 LoCs. They really hate “1s” and pretty much re-roll any they don’t like.

    The Eternal Conflagration: The first giant “Battalion of Battalions”. Lord of Change can cast magic through Flamers like Warmachine Arcnodes. Enemies suffer penalties to hit Flamers in the Battalion.

    The Hosts Duplicitous: The second giant “Battalion of Battalions”. All wizards cast more reliably and know a hilarious spell that targets nearby enemy units and makes them reverse the results of all to-hit and to wound rolls (successes become failures and vice versa)

    Hosts Duplicitous sounds like a lot of fun!

    I've amended my post to make it clearer. I'm aware that Tzeentch is the unifying allegiance keyword. Big Archaon is coming out of his box in excitement.

    It's a relief destiny dice won't work on the Eye of Sheerian, they'll probably be scary enough with the Slayer of Kings alone! :D

    Or you could solve this by having the Disciples of Tzeentch style mixed keywords (Daemon and Arcanite etc..) in a single Allegiance with one Battle Trait (Destiny Dice in DoT, something new for Free Cities), but command abilities and trait depend on the choice of general.

    It's keyword Tzeentch dude, though I wouldn't mind them whacking a new keyword on units in a Free Cities book to unify them a little better and keep the legacy units out of allegiance armies.

    All this talk of a Free Cities/Azyrheim battletome makes me want to wishlist more:

    I am immediately transported back to my childhood.  I used to run LoC and those monopose beastmen.  I scrimped and saved for ages to afford that tiny $50 LoC back then and it was the most incredible thing I had ever seen.

    Now I get to run beastmen again and a LoC that makes me giddy all over again...for more than $50, but oh so worth it!

    I love this hobby so much I often ponder what I would do in an alternate reality where it doesn't exist.

    Same here.

    Spoiler

    I'd be rich
