Could be, but it's a risky manoeuvre. The moment you lose a single model, you no longer get the save rerolls for having 10+ models, so it's usually better to always try and run Warriors in blocks of 15 whenever possible.
Ahh, you are right. Might drop the Fomoroid and the 5 man unit of warriors, then i have 200 points on another battleline unit

2 units of 10 warriors is... kinda rough. I'd almost recommend running them as 5 and 15, so that at least one of these blocks can be more durable, and the other functions as a screening unit, or to leave behind on some objective.
No problem changing that, just though that it might be needed if there are a couple of center objectives.

okay, was thinking of changing the lances on the new knights to hand weapons.
But was more worried about, if the old models will look out of place together with the new models
-
Hey all,
Just ordered the start collecting! slaves to darkness.
Does anyone have some comparisons of the new and old warriors and knights together.
I might have a bunch of them in a box somewhere, and if they don't look too out of place among the new models, i might use them to fill out the units.
And is it possible to change up the weapons on the knights?
thanks

Also wanna do some darker bone color, maybe cygor brown or something grey/black bone. Not sure if you will be using contrast, or trying something else

Planing on buying some paints with my big order tomorrow, but not really sure about a paint scheme yet.
How are you all planning to paint your boneboyz?

A quick 1000 point lists:
Petrifix legion
Soul mason - 140
Bone shaper - 130
20 Mortek guards with swords - 260
20 Mortek guards with swords - 260
3 stalkers/1harvester - 200
Might change the soul mason for a soul-reaper, to fit in the screamer endless spell
Edit: another quick list:
Petrifix legion
Liege-kavalos - 200
bone-shaper - 130
20x mortek guard with swords
5 deathriders
5 deathriders
an endless spell

Isn't that a trait from Legions of Sacrament though?
There is a similar trait in the book

Only if you don't use a legion, as you have to take the legion specific trait

I see what you are saying, but as a balance between point costs and RDP generation, wouldn't it be better to take the LK in a 1k game?
- LK: 200 points and 2RDP (can get a 3rd on a 6+)
or
- Two heroes (lowest is 120 - so 240) for 2 RDP (can get a 3rd and 4th on a 6+ each).
Just my opinion, but an extra 40 points (at the very least) for the potential to get one extra RDP each round isn't worth it. And that is just if you take two Soul Reapers as your heroes.But you do get extra spells and resurrection from an extra caster. But i agree, now knowing that i get 2 from the LK, i might try to fit him in instead.

You get 1 for each hero, you also get 1 for each LIEGE(keyword), which is basically just the liege-kavalos, arch-kavalos, and katakros. So the Liege-Kavalos actually generates 2 RD points on his own.
I had missed that, thanks, an even better reason to to take a liege-kavalos. But kinda avoiding him in my 1000 list, as i wanted more small heroes to generate more RDP.

Sorry, this is apparently not so easy on a small phone😓

Well Arkhan is 1, you definitely want Liege-Kavalos, which is 2, then I suppose one wizard as a support and preferably a battalion. This puts you at 5 guaranteed. Good with Arkhan is that you have the option to cast the spell for extra D3 RD in case you really need them. Then with 8 units, which seems to be kinda standart, you are to recieve 1 or 2 with the rolls. I would be comfortable with that amount for the round.
Where do you get the 5th from? .. 3 from heroes and 1 from battalion, but I don't think you just get one, as you do with command points? ..

I seriously doubt I'd ever play Null Myriad, Ivory Host or Mortis Praetorians. I doublt I'll play Stalliarch Lords, but I like the idea of running awesome cavalry.
I could see myself run null myraids, if my local meta starts to bring a bunch of spells(cities of sigmar or stormcasts) as the command ability to ignore spells on a 2+ can really mess with them.
If i am running a cavalry list, i might even use Petrifex for them, and try to fit in the battalion instead, as the extra save and rend are really good for the cavalry

That is some crazy deployment rules for the nexus, makes it way better. thought it had to be in your territory.
But this makes the short range judgements much better, and the 'can't run and only charge 1d6" way more potent.
It is still wholly within, so the opponent can play around it, but can still really mess with objective grapping units

the nexus is huge 😮. fortunately, it is placed before any other terrain, even the normal one. anywhere on the battlefield, 3" from objectives and 6" from battlefield edge
How is it to assemble? .. can you take of the statue, or magnetize it, so it is easier to transport?

Re-looked at GMG review - it's 3 units
Dang it, was hoping to build around it, in my 1000point list.
and just in general, 3 units of guards seems like a lot, as they don't seem too viable in 10 man squads
-
10 minutes ago, XReN said:
Nah, it's really good for the points and an ability to cover up all your battleline and support caster needs is perfect
was thinking about it, but you can get another caster for 120, which also gives you a RDP each turn, as long as he lives.
Is it correct that it is only 2 units of guards?
-
what are your thoughts on the Mortek Shield Corps battalion.
caster, 2 x guards(is it really only 2, might be 3 units) to get the extra artifact, RDP and can use a shield wall for free each turn seems okay. But 120 seems a little high.

Are you feeling swords, or spears for the mortek in units of 20?
thinking swords, as i don't expect all 20 will reach close combat without losing any models. and with 25mm bases, that already fight in 2 ranks plus the rend is really nice.
But i do prefer the looks of the spears

trying to make a 1000 point meeting engagement list, this is my first try at a list:
Petrifex Elite
Bone Shaper with Empower Naditite Weapons 130
Soul Reaper with Arcane Command or Drain Vitality 120
20xMortek Guard 260
20xMortek Guard 260
Gothizzar Harvester or Necropolis Stalkers 200
Bone-tithe Shrieker 30
1000 point total.
any thoughts or suggestions?
-
Think the reason they don't have any allies is because of the RD point system, and they didn't want to think about that complexity.
The question still stands about how they work in a GA:death army. If you can still use command points on the abilities, or you just can't use any OBR abilities

Do we know if there are any allies for the army?
Maybe a big block of skellies if possible for some numbers is worthwhile.
They have no allies

lot of good feedback, thanks! .. will try to go with 1 unit of 15 or 20 warriors and 2 units of 5 knights, and drop the Fomoroid (thoughi really love the model)
and then find something else to use the last 100-200 points on.
About the warshrine, that was an error on my part, should have had the mark of nurgle.
