  1. The faqs per the update on GW site: Pages 46-156 – Khorne Bloodbound, Daemons of Khorne, Tzeentch Arcanites, Daemons of Tzeentch, Nurgle Rotbringers and Daemons of Nurgle These warscrolls are no longer used. They have been replaced with the warscrolls in Battletome: Blades of Khorne, Battletome: Disciples of Tzeentch and Battletome: Maggotkin of Nurgle. Also, the PTWB never appeared in the GA chaos book. Only in the Everchosen battletome. PTWB as we know it seems to be dead. I'm hoping that GW resolves this soon.
  2. There's been quite a bit of discussion about it. Whether or not the fact that the battalion is listed under "everchosen" makes it alliance specific to that. Meaning, of course, that all other factions without everchosen keyword would then count as being ally choices. GW is going to have to answer this in the near future. No problem, as far as I'm concerned in casual play. But it's pretty much been killed in the competitive (tournament) scene.
  3. Yup, the new GHB really put the screws to all demons lists across all alliances...... It appears that the new approach is to include them by summoning. You can definitely include the heroes', i.e. GUO, LoA , Slimux, etc and then drop units of PBs and single beasts, bases of nurglings near objectives and annoy the **** out of your opponent. Demon lists should always, IMO, include drones at the outset. Their speed and punch can't be left off for summoning. I also think that the garden and tall band can be made to work. Just not sure how competitive of a player you are. More experienced players will easily take those down.
  4. Yeah, he's pretty much a staple with the PTWB. I'm assuming that you're playing this in non-competitive settings. The PTWB only exists in the Everchosen battletome. Therefore, it is impossible to legally build a match play list as all of your units, excepting those with the 'ever chosen' keyword would count as allies.? Still, it's fun for practice games and 'just playing'.
  5. Looks pretty good. I just hate the idea of giving up all the Nurgle Alliance stuff......
  6. Well, yeah. I don't think it's competitive, but could be fun. I currently am a kind of "first hit's free" kind of guy at our local GW. I play a lot of noobs so I think it's list that would show a lot of the different demographics of the game. I'm afraid that it may even be a bit too strong for that role, what with all those drones.....

  9. That's the way I read it. The portal is the origin point of the spell. The caster is where you measure to dispel it.

  11. Depends on the scenario..... those kings are gonna mess stuff up and the drones are awesome. Let us know how it did for you.
  12. A speedy brutal list. Drones getting +2 attacks in melee and +1 attack from CLoDM in shooting phase looks pretty nasty.
  13. Depending on the alliance you're going with, I see a problem with the spawn and mutuality vortex beast, both of which are now exclusive to Tzeentch, unless you intend to ally them in.
  14. The only problem that I see here is that I, for one, don't really know if you can take artifacts from both the realm and the alliance. I had posted a question on here and got one response which said yeah you can. However, the consensus at the local store is that you cannot. The Malign Sorcery book seems to support this. See page 79 in the header for Artifacts of the Realms.
  15. Yup. I like the idea of having a tree that can't be denied right off the hop..... That being said, I still haven't been able to put together a list that I like enough to put him on the table..... is he really worth those points?
  16. I don't agree. He's part of the alliance.... just ally him in if you feel that you can't take him any other way. He's only 160.
  17. You don't have to ally him in if you can give him any mark, or if you're playing straight StD with no marks, you can still bring him..... he's listed under StD on the community war scroll builder. He can be your general, take traits and artifacts, whatever. If you give him a mark, he becomes a part of that alliance.
  18. Don't get too discouraged if you don't do as well as you anticipate. There's a lot of power gamers that populate tournaments. Use it as a way to learn new strategy, whats works'/ doesn't work etc. Remember, no one build is going to (usually) win every time in every scenario. Have fun! It's a game after all.
