  1. Kruel boy spotted ?? The stromcast definitely looks like part of the new wave (and he looks awesooooome ❤️ ) Really loving the art style of this AOS animation !
  2. Thank you for your insight, while all you said might be true If you put this on a 10 "man" unit of bloodknights that's 30 wounds with a 2+ invuln to chew through with a 6+ fnp reroll 1 So this means with "high volume of attacks" you would need to do 180 wounds to pass the 2 up save... And then pass the 6+ reroll 1 fnp... Good luck with that ? again doing 35 mortal wounds (including the FNP) seems a lot of work to kill a 390 point unit... Especially when you can then do the same combo on another 3+ save unit that you have and kill whatever was able to deal that many mortal wounds sure the spell can be denied but with good placements or even with umbral spell portal or good rolls I think you can manage to make this combo work quite easily at least once per game
  3. Well if mystic shield goes back to +1 save (as rumored for 3rd Edition) it is only the cost of Neferata + the target unit and whatever cheap caster can cast mystic shield. Also Neferata doesn't do just that she also provides other things to the table than her spell So for a 365 points + cheap caster + target unit combo you get a lot more than just a 2+ ethereal save (and a 2+ ethereal save is already something quite strong in certain matchups) I mean with a bit of luck and a 9+ unmodified cast she could even cast her spell twice per turn... with seems likely to happen at least once per game ?
  4. So nobody is going to talk about the possibility to give a + 1 save thx to the coven throne (or the rumored new mystic shield) to a 3+ save unit ( like prince vordrai, blood knights or a vamptor for example) and then Neferata giving on a casting value 6 spell an ignore NEGATIVE save modifiers only ?? So we have a model that can have a reliable and relatively easy way to get a 2+ ethereal save ?? And people are complaining ??
  5. I don't know if someone spotted this already but this should please our very hungry friends !!
  6. Well I check this forum daily and I didn't know about primarised stormcast he specifically said something like bigger stormcast But yeah obviously a set with stormcasts against destruction was heavily rumoured already, I'm just so glad that in my mind it is almost confirmed then hehehe I got a laugh reaction by our divine oracle Whitefang ! That must mean something !! Right ?? Please ?? XD
  7. Guys (and gals ) I'm so ****** hiped !!! I was just watching the 40k stream on a live of one of my favorite warhammer youtuber / streamer and he HEAVILY hinted that what was coming for AOS was massive, massive enough to make 40k players play AOS... Basically he mumbled really quickly while faking to clear his throat that there was a v3 stormcast vs green skins set coming And hinted at "primaris" style stormcast.... (But it was very subtle so it's still not that clear to me) I can't assure you it's true but he is one the biggest warhammer youtuber in my country so he has like a 99.99 % level of credibility (for me at least) it sounds so ****** amazing !! I don't know about the primaris stormcast but a confirmed v3 with destruction is like super duper cool !! (I don't want to cite him directly because I don't want him to get into trouble with GW like the lumineth player that leaked the entire Battletome last summer just in case )
  8. Ahah Avalenor is a blast to play, him giving -1 to hit around him on top of other -1 to hit like shining company really is not far from OP Well the only thing able to crack this egg is doing 14 wounds of mortal wounds output... If you add one more egg into the same basket by giving him protection of hish for 5+ FNP there are very few things that can reliably take it down in 1 turn
  9. No I always take a stone mage with my war cow !! ( for keeping the cow at it's highest profile, I also really like the spell crippling vertigo or voice of the mountains to synergize with the cathallar signature spell ) I don't think stoneguards are an interesting choice outside ymetrica, being only a 5 man unit they can't really take objectives well and they are so sloooooow I wish they had a 3 up save or more damage output so they could live up the comparison to the wardens Wardens are just perfect in my opinion they take objectives, with a 3 inch reach they aren't bothered by their 32 mm base size, their base size even becomes an advantage for board control and closing choke points in units of 20. They have twice the damage output of sentinels when they get into combat, given the right buffs they can tank quite well and they are not a truly negative play experience for my opponent so a unit of 20 wardens ready to use their 2 aetherquartz for a 2+ save on 1 side of the board and a warcow with ethereal blessing and mystic shield for a 3+ ethereal save rerolling one on the other side really allows me to have 2 big anvils and some board control (Anvils that can become hammers veeeeery quickly if you speed of hishe the war cow or the wardens + power of hish the wardens )
  10. I would love to use Alumnia for extra mobility and run and charge on the generic war cows.. but Syar is so much fun and polyvalent.. need a + 1 to cast or a reroll to cast ? Need a +1 to hit to make sure avalenor maximizes his damage ? need to cast an extra spell because you messed up your combo ? Need to have a +2 save to blunt the charge of a big thing... You can have all that with Syar it allows you to adapt to your adversary and I really feels confortable to play With zaitrec while I love the fluff the + 1 to cast is good but will actually matter only 2 times every 12 casting results (If you roll just under what you needed to pass the spell or just under the unbinding roll of your opponent) I can have this + 1 to cast if I need it with Syar.. Yes Syar doesn't work on a unit with ethereal blessing but what I meant is if you give etheral blessing to a war cow and need also your unit of 20 wardens to tank you can have 2 very tanky units instead of 1 @LuminethMage I never played 1 sentinel in my life but 1 or 2 pack of 20 wardens and a war cow are always in my list for damage and objective control I don't feel like once per game +2 save is that much of a negative play given how skilled you need to be to have the proper timing and how fragile our army can be otherwise
  11. How would a cap to +1 save improve our units ?? In Syar getting Teclis or a unit of wardens to 2+ save for a turn was really good when you were about to get charged by a heavy hitter (provided you already casted the ethereal blessing on something like a war cow for example )
  12. Another 3rd ed rumour that may hurt us is the cap to +1 -1 modifiers.. In the case of -1 to hit it is absolutely a good healthy thing for the game, it is really stupid to put -2 or -3 to hit on a big enemy unit and while sometimes it requires a bit of skill to pull it off it is not something me or my regular opponent considers to be fun But we have so many ways to give -1 to hits... I just hope that some of those will be replaced by other tools in the future like -1 to wound or reroll sucessful 6 to hit so that we don't come up with a list where some of our bonuses just don't matter anymore more worrying is the hypothetic +2 save disparition...I found it quite balanced in Syar since it meant using a CP and it's only once per game so it required skill to do it a the right time. Without it I fear that Teclis may not be able to survive alpha strikes anymore or that syar may lose quite a bit in 3rd ed (although look out sir may have different rules in the future that would allow Teclis to be more survivable to alpha strikes we don't know yet !) Otherwise, if those worries of mine are adressed in a future battletome or in the new set of core rules I am really excited by 3rd ed, and the tactical depth that charge reaction may be bringing to our tables !!
  13. Where does that come from ?? Oo love the artwork ❤️
  14. Woooooah ! Well... I painted like 1250 points of stormcasts and like 14 sequitors and never noticed them !! I had to check on my models to realize that it was there and I completely f@#%ed up by painting the whole helmet in gold ! My life was a lie !!! Thank you for making me repaint the back of the helmet of my whole stormcast collection
  15. The one that puzzles me the most is the one with the leather straps at the back of his helmet, forefront on the far right !
