I would suggest finding some space for some more chaos knights
Yes, this. They're by far my favourite hammer unit now. They average 50 dmg against a 4+ foe with 3 easy buffs:
- Secrator
- The Knights of Chaos
- Undivided Warshrine blessing
But they need a screening unit. I would use Centigors, but their monetary cost is stupid and offensive:
Allegiance: Khorne
- Slaughterhost: The Goretide
Leaders
Chaos Lord on Daemonic Mount (170)
- General
- Command Trait: Hew the Foe
- Artefact: The Crimson Crown
Bloodsecrator (120)
- Artefact: Thronebreaker's Torc
Bloodstoker (80)
Slaughterpriest (100)
- Blood Blessing: Blood Sacrifice
Battleline
40 x Chaos Marauders (320)
- Axes & Shields
15 x Chaos Warriors (270)
- Hand Weapon & Shield
10 x Bloodreavers (70)
- Meatripper Axes
10 x Bloodreavers (70)
- Meatripper Axes
10 x Bloodreavers (70)
- Meatripper Axes
Units
10 x Chaos Knights (320)
- Cursed Lance
10 x Chaos Warhounds (80)
Behemoths
Chaos Warshrine (170)
- Blood Blessing: Killing Frenzy
Battalions
Dark Feast (110)
Endless Spells / Terrain / CPs
Hexgorger Skulls (40)
Total: 1990 / 2000
Extra Command Points: 1
Allies: 0 / 400
Wounds: 176

Have you had any success with it already?
Yeah for sure. Works great when battle lines have just closed in on each other. Some killing will have already taken place when I activate the magic cat, but thereafter my characters and MSU units can all have a crack at whatever unit I've neutered without fear of being wiped out in between activations. I really dig it.
Normally I'd use a Chaos Lord on foot instead (commanding 5 Chaos Chosen to attack twice before the mind-controlled unit gets to) but now that the Thermalrider Cloak is gone I'm finding him very hard to use effectively...

I find the magic cat is a gamechanger for Reavers. What do you guys think of this?:
Allegiance: Khorne
- Slaughterhost: The Goretide
Chaos Lord on Karkadrak (230)
- General
- Command Trait: Hew the Foe
- Artefact: Gorecleaver
Bloodsecrator (120)
- Artefact: Thronebreaker's Torc
Bloodstoker (80)
Slaughterpriest (100)
- Blood Blessing: Blood Sacrifice
40 x Chaos Marauders (320)
- Axes & Shields
10 x Bloodreavers (70)
- Meatripper Axes
10 x Bloodreavers (70)
- Meatripper Axes
10 x Bloodreavers (70)
- Meatripper Axes
10 x Bloodreavers (70)
- Meatripper Axes
5 x Chaos Knights (160)
- Cursed Lance
5 x Wrathmongers (140)
5 x Wrathmongers (140)
1 x Mindstealer Sphiranx (100)
- Allies
Chaos Warshrine (170)
- Blood Blessing: Killing Frenzy
Dark Feast (110)
Hexgorger Skulls (40)
Total: 1990 / 2000

Does anyone know when the app for the phone will be updated? i'm waiting for the right points to make a list
Dunno but FYI Warscroll Builder updated about an hour ago.

Someone remind me again what the argument is against Chaos Knights? These are easy buffs, and I want to build a Big Chungus®.

marauder horsemen (my favorite unit mind you) will now very rarely see game play...
I really love these models. Such a great kit with all the little add-ons like strapped javelins, chains, skulls etc.
It was so unnecessary and bizarre to hike them like they did. It's not like Ruinbringer chaff spam was sweeping the podiums, nor even featuring in that many lists. SMH.

Unfortunately Gorecleaver is Mortals only.
There are Not many good weapons for a Demon Prince
I'm an idiot. Sorry, I didn't read the post properly. Yeah, I think that the removal of the Sword of Judgement and Runic/Dimensional Blade are the final justification for me to just take the Crimson Crown on him every time, and armed with an axe. His command is just too good.

Gorecleaver is always a solid choice, especially when he's doing Damage 3 thanks to Hew the Foe command trait.

or just move only one on my hero phase?
Only in your Hero phase. The "their" in the rule refers to the player controlling the Judgement.

Why should we try? Why should social engeering be the right path?
Isn't just natural that different people, different genders, different nations focus on different things? Why would artificial parities be better than natural distribution?
GW is a corporation. Profit is their prime motivation. Opening the hobby to new cohorts of customers is just sensible. I would guess that's actually the main business reason for pushing inclusivity. If there are people there in decision-making roles who genuinely care about how sometimes excluded or marginalised groups of people actually feel about engaging with the hobby, all the better.
That said, do you actually lose anything in the process? Are you concerned about (eventually) becoming part of a minority group yourself? If so, that could be quite revealing in itself...

When using the "Bless weapons" prayer. On unmodified 6 to hit, another hit is generated. it doesn't say if the chain stops if the resulting dice is 6.
So does it stop ? I think I saw something somewhere about that but can't recall.The additional generated hit already hits the target. You move straight onto To Wound rolls after that. There's no chance of generating additional hits again.

I am leaning towards using celestar ballistas instead of longstrike crossbows for SCE firepower
In celebration of the throttling of Endless Spells and aftersaves, I was thinking of using both in quantity, with Liberators and masses of birds to claim objectives and gum up the board, but someone told me it was unfriendly. 🙂

lol they didn't even knock 10 off Blood Warriors, like Liberators and Chaos Warriors got. Someone just decided it was all perfect.

but marauder horsemen going up by 20? I don't agree with that at all
Such a bizarre and unnecessary points hike as they currently stand. Maybe a warscroll revision is in the works???

We know for sure that the battalion dropped 10 points? Cant seem to find that any where just yet
There's heaps of French leaks all over Twitter, Facebook and Reddit. 180pts.

The Plan is to buff the BoiR with the Hit Reroll from WoKB (both,one free because of Artefact and the other for 1 CP) than get the double attack from Slaughterhost on one of them.
I really like the Crimson Crown on that Thirster. It's gold. And I would just pump every CP into the Reapers command.

You're very thin on screens and units - hell, more of those quick Murderhost hounds would be good for screening and capping.
But it's low drops, super aggressive and rich in CPs. Looks like awesome fun. I reckon a lot of opponents will panic in some way.

will my plaugebearer unit get a DPR from disgustingly resilient, and the LOCA DPR from the allegiance ability?
Yeah, your get both saves one after the other.

Ok, another question. Is any unit with the Chaos Ascendant and Wizard keywords eligible to take spells from the Lore of Ruinous Sorcery? Even named characters? Excluding Horror units, of course.
Yeah it says every WIZARD in the army may select a spell, so I don't see why that wouldn't include Horrors. Every single wizard gets a spell.

@cbok yeah, I'd like to have both of those things, plus two units of Wrathmongers lol
But sacrifices have to be made, and that list is mainly about harnessing the Knights' raw linebreaking power on the charge with a very solid anvil. In fact I could give the Knights +2 to hit, but it's unnecessary overkill and I think I'll run the Warshrine with Bronzed Flesh for the Warriors instead.
