Well they eat them and eahcother. But it hardly makes an unique offering. If there was a lumineth force in the area I wouldn’t be satisfied with a gnoblar. Give me a elf ear salade as a bare minimum.
Yeah. They are magically cursed to always be starving though. They eat dirt and rocks when there is nothing else. Butchers will chop off their own arms and eat them.

They eat themselves all the time actually. Whenever there is a ritual challenge, for instance to become the Tyrant, the loser is eaten by the victor.

You could intentionally trigger this with with the Tyrant CA and a unit of gnoblars. Not sure if that would be worth it though.
You cant because the mawpot only refills when an enemy model is slain, not any model.

Its not a problem when review copies are sent because instead of half wondering and squinting at blurry leaks we actually have all the information.
This is some sort of weird hybrid case where we dont have any actual reviews of the content, and just have random pages from people that received the book early.

Hey guys,
Is there any information how often you can use the mawpots healing ability in one hero phase?
Since the healing is not at the start of the hero phase and only one slain model within 6" is needed to fill it up again, you could use the healing, try to kill a model within range of the mawpot with an ability in the hero phase (e.g. Arcane bolt, prayer, BCR trait,...) and use the heal again afterwards. You could repeat this as long there is a unit with enough models or you go out of damaging hero phase abilities.
Am I missing anything or is that legit?
I think that's legitimate. Probably doesn't come up often though

nah you dont get the realm spell, it only gets to use when you play a game on that realm
yes it did come after cities, so our points are unchanged on the book but will get updated on the pdf, so when i said our points get unchanged it was false.
Any changes to general matched play?

I think she is better as an ally to Ogres bc she compliments their weaknesses well.
Vanilla Ogre battleline troops have no AP and poor saves, so her spell is useful. Also it's nice to have a bit of range.

I think that's where we have a fundamental disagreement, I don't see tournament lists as "some sort of skew".
It's what I play against all the time, so for me it's the relevant frame of reference.
Well then you are going to have a bad time unless you pick a top tier meta army... most factions in the game cant deal with army wide 2 or 3+ rerolling saves for instance. It's skew bc you either have the AP or you dont deal with it.

I would confidently take a bet on which book racks up more 5-0s. As long as I don't have to bet on Mawtribes.
Yeah, bc we have no ways of dealing with top tier meta like OBR and Tzeentch when we have almost no AP, weak spell casting, and limited mortal wound generation.
In a tournament I'd rather have my Seraphon, but in a random pick up game I think I'd rather have Ogres bc their raw brute force is strong unless you are playing against some sort of tournament skew.

Wait until you see what Salamanders can do.
Fun Fact
Lord Kroak: 320 points
Huskard on Thundertusk: 340 points
Good luck !
I actually play Seraphon as my other army and this is a bit misleading.
Salamanders are definitely super good, short range not withstanding. They are in the same ballpark as stationary Leadbelchers though.
Kroak honestly is very good at hero sniping due to his ability to aim mortal wounds around, but he wouldnt have the best matchup vs. Ogres. His abilities spread out mortal wounds at a high efficiently against multiple units (which is why he is good at sniping characters), but would seriously struggle vs. big Ogre blobs where you have 3-5 huge wound soaking units. To optimize Kroak, you also need to also spend another 300pts+ on support, like a banner and Guard.
Seraphon are a super weird rock paper scissors match-up for Mawtribes bc the Coalesced 'take 1 less damage per attack' probably hurts us more than any other faction due to our prolific 2d attacks, but I think we have a great matchup vs. starborne, and leadbelcher / frost sabre lists dont really care.

Anyone else get the idea to use the LOTR goblins as Gnoblars? They are pretty cheap, and I think the more serious aesthetic fits my army better. They are also pretty much the exact same size.

Wow your gnoblars are tiny... I can’t even see them on those bases
kudos on the variation in skin tone. I’ve caught myself recently. so now adding more variation myself. 👍
After painting basically a wall of flesh I realized I wanted to mix it up hah. Lorewise it definitely makes sense that as a wandering band absorbing tribes from different lands and different realms they wouldn't all look the same. Also, painting black skin was cool skill set to develop.
They were all primed with ubashi bone. Then I shaded with fleshtone. Then for the dark skin guys I did a layer of katachan flesh, with 50/50 katachan / tusker highlights for a nice reddish black tan look. The white guys were just Canadian flesh + Kislev flesh.

It's really just the butcher variants and maneaters (which are super easy to kit-bash).
Tyrant and Hunter both got plastic kits, (i'll ignore the Gorger). There are a lot of things you can use for Sabretusks, I use Fenrisian Wolves.
I think this is becoming more and more of a problem. Case in point... Mawtribes. With so much D2, they pretty much lose to a faction like Coalesced Seraphon. Petrifex have a cake-walk against armies that cant throw out mortal wounds. A ton of factions that are reliant on 4w support characters now get them insta-gibbed by 3 or 4 armies. The new Lumineth spell that DOUBLES THE COST OF COMMAND TRAITS. Some of the things out there are just not beatable with certain factions.
