    SO if you buy the Fancy Endrinmaster you get another 6 skyriggers, which is nice, I would say that looks like a good evolution, you might want to buy another set of thunderers so you can do different loadouts for your ironclad's troops. Other than that looks great.

    Actually i  just buy the single modell on ebay.

    I am not sold on more Riggers and i would like to keep it cheap.😅

  2. Hello fellow Admirals,

    i am thinking of starting my own fleet and it as to include the ironclad. Just love this model!

    I take part in a CTL tournament at my local Warhammer store (1500p, 48x48 boards), so i want to build a competitive 1500p army. Maybe 1000p for the start.

    I just bought the battletome. My buying list would be:
     

    1x Arcanaut Company

    1x start collecting

    1x Ironclad
     

    So i will have a 1000p list for 210€, which is quite cheap i guess.

    The upgrade to 1500p would be another start collecting and the Thundrik Profiteers. And maybe an Endrinmaster in his fancy suit.

    so what do you think? Is this a good starting point? Any tipps? Suggestions?

  3. Hey Guys,

    i am thinking about getting into Nurgles little garden and wanted to ask for your advice.

    I love the Blightkings and Gutrot Spume and would like to build a 1000p list first. Later i would go to 1500p because we have a 1500p CTL tournament league.

    My question for you would be how competitive such a list would be? And how would it look like? Blightkings seem to be the bread and butter?
    I am on a budget, so your 45 Blightking list are not in for me.😅 I have Beats of Chaos and could field their Pestilent Throng Batallion?

    @Zorki hits the nail on the head. The extra range on the gargant hacker is a big deal imo.  So mine are equiped with gargant hackers and the four i'm building will be the same. And they look cooler imo. 

    Two models with Gargant hacker:

    Two with Prey Hackers

    Both vs a 4up save. So even at two Gargant hackers spike and fail a bit more. And if you can get your opponent to kill them in melee the Ironfists will do a few Mortal Wounds in return. 

    In units of two you can get a Skalg. But no Horn blower or banner bearers.

    If the option allows '1 in X amount of models' you can only take it if you meet that amount. So in a unit of 4 or 6 you're allowed a Skalg, Horn Blower and banner bearer. In a unit of 8, a Skalg, two Horn Blowers and two banner bearers. But in a unit of two only a Skalg is allowed.

     

    Thanks again guys!

    so i will build mine with full Command and Clubs. The Bannerbearer gets a pistole on his belt so i can play him as a Skalg too. The Hornblower will just be played as a normal guy.

    So i can play them both as 2x2 and 1x4.🤪

    Would the Skalg/Hornblower/Bannerbearer in a unit with Gargant Hackers still hold just Clubs?

    Is that okay ruleswise?

    Haha

     

    Let's talk about a new technical build x)

    Personnaly, if i have to go for 2 x 2 mournfang pack i build them with ironfist.

     

    If you go on 4+ mournfang pack gargant are more efficient (theory crafter will confirme to you exaltly).

    To conclude if you want to go on multi Small pack : Iron fist

    4+ gargant hackers 

    I guess that i will play them in 2x2.

    So should i built two Hornblowers and two Skalgs?

    And no Bannerbearers?

    I think the story is better (and cheaper) models ;) 

    perfectly acceptable proxy imo. 

    good luck! Curious to see how 48x48 plays out. We do that for 1K battles but play 1,5K on full 6x4 tables. 
     

    EDIT: @Archibald have you seen the fenrisian wolves btw? 

    Thanks man. So i will get some Dire Wolves soon.😎

    I have seen Fenrisian Wolves but  don't really like the minis. Can't point a finger on it...

    The CTL started in January. So i already had some games with my FEC (Ghouls).  It is because the store isn't big enough for more than one 6x4 table. It is still a ton of fun, but it definitely benefits slow armies.

    I just bought my first Start Collecting BCR and was wondering how to equip the Mournfangs. Gargant Hackers or Clubs? Full Command? 
    What would you say?

  7. Thanks for the replies.

    I forgot to mention that we play on 48 x 48 boards. Maybe that is important to know too.

    When the store allows to play again, i will test list 2 with a bloodgullet butcher (my army hat a frosty Bloodgullet theme).

     

    Oh, and i need some Frost sabers.😅

    I was thinking about using Dire Wolves. The story behind them would be that in the harsh enviroments of the Everwinter the hungry Ogors sometimes snack on their Frost Sabers because there is nothing else.

    What do you think?😄

    Has anyone tried using Greasus Goldtooth/Overtyrant since the book came out? Has he been useful at all?

    He is no longer part of the warscrolls in the Ogor Mawtribes book. So i guess you would play him as a very fancy looking normal tyrant.😄

  9. Hello fellow Tyrants,

    there would be a CTL-tournament league going on in our local Warhammer store right now. And i am theorycrafting some lists for my new (and finaly painted) Mawtribe. The pointlimit is 1500p. So it feels a bit odd because i always struggle to put everything in that i want. But i guess that is a problem at all pointlimits.😄

     

    I came up with three lists abf would like to hear your opinions. 
    Am open to any improvements and/or tips. Next time i will use the warscroll builder for a better list presentation...

    Ogor Mawtribes

    Bloodgullet

    Syhsh

    140p Gourmand-Batallion

    120p Hunter (Splattercleaver)

     

    Battleline

    I'm really hoping that the Sons of Behemat feature in the next Campaign book. Especially if its Order VS Destruction.

    Maybe they will break the gates to Sigmars Realm. 
    I mean one is already called Gatebreaker...😄

  11. Hello fellow generals and hobbists,

    after a nearly 3 year absence from the scene i came back with a bang. I had sold all my armies and stuff und thought i was finished with the little plastic soldiers. But when a friend of mine mourned around that there are no cool war boardgames i could resist to take him by the hand and show him a specific hobbist store a.k.a. Warhammer store around the corner. I always kept an eye on new models and espetially at AoS. He is a big fan of World of Warcraft and classic fantasy races like orcs, dwarfes and aelves. So it took not much time until we hand our hands clawed into our first start collecting boxes (FEC for me, Ironjaws for him).

    Long story short. This took place in October and now i am sitting here painting my fourth AoS army.🤪

    I will post pics of my progress and would love to hear your opinions on my works.

    So good wargaming and stay healthy. Maybe we will meet each other one day on the battlegrounds. WAAARGH!
