  1. Awww I didn’t know it was only the 1 spell you could dispel. That does change things. A fungoid and Skragrott could well cast out up to 4 endless spells. Gravetide, gnashing jaws, scuttletide, palisade and pendulum are all rather Cheap spells with large bases. I imagine you’d be basing your army around it though. defiantly a way of playing GG I hadn’t considered before.
  2. But you have a solid +2 to your disspell with Arkan and I have +1, +2 conditionally under the moon from turn 2 only. so y0u have a better chance throughout the game of dispelling my endless spells before they are even on the board than I have of casting them. Your magic is better than mine so maybe I could zone you out for a turn if I was ballsy enough to put my casters that far up the board AND was lucky enough to roll higher than your dice. Which throughout the game is less than a 50% chance. Obviously that’s depends on if you take arachan Nagash or not. oh yes, +3 making them a 7; which is faster than most battle lines. Then they could run or charge. So if your wanting to push me off those hard to reach objectives in the middle of the board you start off usually 12 away, -7 and all of a suddenly your only needing a 5ish charge. agreed OBR struggle if there is more than 3 objectives to hold. However their often aren’t. Otherwise they just slowly march up sit on whatever it is and don’t die and kill literally everything. You must admit the Mortek guard are under costed? A unit of 20 stabs is the same cost as 10 mortek. . Honestly I’m usually happy to lose. I play Gloomspite non optimally I’m used to losing. But I personally don’t enjoy losing to bonereapers so I’m not playing them.
  3. I play Gloomspite. I have no real shooting to deal with a harvester. Any opponent knows this and will just make a wall around their harvester and move that mortek Death Star forward. Which has the potential to heal as each model as it’s slain. so even if I throw my high damage glass cannons into that thing (which is always either currently sitting in an objective or going to be sitting on an objective the next turn. It’s not reachable and the screen in front of it is extremely hard to kill even with rend 2 weapons. Then they are also usually supported by arachan or Nagash who are non comparable to Skragrott magic wise. So I can’t challenge there unless it’s with endless spells for fear of my most valuable unit getting flattened by superior magic or the shooting of a crawler. Bone reapers are not slow. That discipline thing that makes them +7 movement is what separates them from Fyreslayer. I played Fryslaters this weekend also and they are similarly tanky but they are actually slow, have very limited access to magic and unbinds compared to Nagash And Arachan. ALSO IF YOU KILL A FYRESLAYER IT ACTUALLY STAYS DEAD. I’m aware Gloomspite are not a competitive choice and accepted that this was always going to be a up hill battle. Part of why I enjoy them so much, people enjoy playing against them, they have very obvious weaknesses which every army could exploit. I never felt I had to apologise to any of my opponent. However all bone reaper opponents felt the need to apologise to me multiple times for their army’s rules. You’re right though. They aren’t invisible. But as far as my faction is concerned they are. They are currently 9% of the meta with a %60 win rate; %10 higher than the following faction.
  4. I’ve played none reapers in a tournament environment 2 times now and 3 times casually. Broken. The only time they’ve lost is if the realmscspe heavily hurt them or the player was literally (I mean literally) a 10 year old child. my friend played them this weekend at beachyhead and didn’t even lose a total of 1K in kill points over the entire weekend of a 5 game tournament. I hate them. Nice players who I would usually enjoy playing had me sat down after turn 1 or 2 when we used to have fun. It’s not just that they are broken they are also boring to play against and frankly look boring to play also. in my opinion they are essentially an auto win. If this is the way AoS matched play is going to be. I’m out. sorry for the extreme salt. i hate these kind of rules and will flat out refuse to play them.
