My list includes 2 or 4 Rock Lobbas (unless I'm going Rogue Idol.

There's an FAQ answer in the original GHB FAQ on this - in relation to Sylvaneth as I recall - no Prayers, Artefacts or Traits - Battle Traits don't work on them etc..

No they cannot take Artefacts.

These abilities do look strong. The issue for Matched Play then becomes whether the Death or Destruction one is materially weaker (in which case they have a big problem as they have no choice). While the last two abilities have been very strong, they are about as strong as each other. One of them also deters alpha strikes, which is not the end of the world.

Anvilguard Rules are out: https://www.warhammer-community.com/2017/09/19/the-armies-of-firestorm-anvilgard-sep19gw-homepage-post-4/ Looks scary at first, but not as strong on reflection - could back fire vs small flying models (Valkia etc.).
-
It sounded like the attackers of the cities are also getting Traits too.
-
Weirdly they released the Forgeworld Herald of Nurgle again - but still same AoS rules - not Wizard.
-
Those look like textbook Clanrats to me. Clanrats have flails like that and Punch Daggers like that too.

Great bat reps as ever!

Good stuff! Hoping to see some Rogue Idol goodness on the table.

Great. Knocking my choice of units after I only played one game and just started to use them....I planned to paint my army as Urbaz, the guy with alchemists buffs...still going too but this will hurt.
I hate to say it, but if you're going KO in a competitive event, you need to go Zilfin.

Ok - that is odd. Astonishing if the Frigate doesn't go down. Admiral is expensive for 140 too.

Surely the Clown Car is frequently full of 10 Cannon Thunderers, otherwise why not just take a Frigate and pack that full of Balloons. It's deepstriking just as well as the Ironclad.
The small number of KO lists have tended to float into the top 5 at events.

So if i am to understand the warpstone spark rule right: i could now potentially make 12 mortal wounds with a warpfire thrower team?
Since DoT arrived, mortal wounds have mysteriously ceased to be damage - so no.

Brayherd buffs look good. I really hope that the anti-cover debuff aura counters Staunch Defender too! Gors look appropriately cheap too.

Actually a huge change to shooting. Thunderers have been hit with a big nerf - no 5 Cannons or 5 Thunderers - a great change in my view. This makes Khemist Spam far less efficient (as a 50% buff to pure rifles, not a 100% buff to pure Cannons). Also deletes Mortar spam! A great change.

Probably Order Preview. [Sorry memory of a goldfish today.]
-
All looking great.
What is your DoT list?

Really pumped for this. I've just made payment of the deposit for Only the Filthful - reassembling the team from Firestorm Fours:
Only the Filthful

That's very helpful! Cheers Chris.

Hi Chris - could you please post up the timings of the final round on the Sunday - sorting out transportation. I don't think I've missed them - but apologies if I have.
Many thanks.
-
Good stuff. What I should have suggested was that for Battleline only you could choose between the old minimum sizes (and not any discount) or the new larger minimum and discount. Definitely not suggesting dumping Battleline requirement totally. Prospect of painting 20 more old Chaos Marauders is a grim one.
-
There already are Battleline if "General is X" choices - many with themed armies in mind - Juggerlord, Herald on Tzeentch and Karanak for example.

The Order article is now up on the Community site.
https://www.warhammer-community.com/2017/08/04/keeping-order-in-the-generals-handbook-2017/
Stormcast can be allies of any other faction (I hope the reverse is not true).
There's still no mention of any lores.
Fyreslayers seem to be the big winners in terms of what we can see regarding traits. They have 6 once per game, army wide buffs and have to choose a different one each battleround. One of them is extra rend on melee weapons!
Dispossessed look like the losers at the moment as one of their traits duplicates their only Battalion.
Ominously there's no mention of new lores. Hopefully, that's because Soulblight and Darkling Covens (they are led by Sorceresses!) are getting lores, which is why they are getting specific articles on them.
