Is this the boring truth, and all the ships are a traps?
To move the arme is going to be hard (but Fyreslyers also have 4 and they work) and going to have 18 inch shooting on the thunders re-rolling 1 to hit (on 3 units) and wound. and they also is going to be at -2 to hit.

I kinda see no point for the point sink that the Ironclad is when you can only put Arkanaut company in there. They are a pretty weak unit to garrison becouse they dont get to really shoot after sky high
Yeah my bad I forgot to add I have a unit of 10 thunderers thanks for the reply updated the list.

Hello folks just wondering if anyone has a 100% answer to this. forge brethren does it allow only 1 single unit to get +1 save or +1 per auric hearthguard?
-
Hello folks please let me know if this seems like a competitive list.
Tempest Eye
heroes
runelord - leader, aetherguard captain
runelord
runelord
runelord
luminark of hysh with white battle mage - ignax scales
luminark of hysh with white battle mage Battle line
hammerers x30
hammerers x30
longbeards shields x10
longbeards shields x10
longbeards shields x10
So the game plan is have 2 separated units of hammerers and give them 3 feel no pain saves of 6+ so they become pretty survivable. while priests stop magic and i cast a few spells and shoot with the luminarks. long beards protect my back lines and hold back line points. Tempest eye for +3 move and +1 armour first battle round.
thoughts?
-
Maybe a foolish question but can you use dispossessed rules still in the generals handbook and make a dispossessed army or only cities of sigmar? In the cities battletome the dwarfs still have the dispossessed keyword. apologies if this has been asked before.

Anyone have suggestions on Fyreslayers vs. Shootcast? Is it just a tough match without skewing towards it... adding extra underground Hearthguard, etc...?
Edit: For context, I am helping my Father-in-law as he is really getting into AoS. He's competitive by nature, but a deeply good sport, so I was surprised when his first 2000pt game at a store was against someone who brought the 9 Longstrike, all shooty Stormcast, didn't offer a handshake, etc...
On paper I would've been sure my Dad-in-law had the win. He was rocking the big Zerker blobs and foot heroes, and had a small unit of the shooter-Hearthguard as ablative wounds for his heroes. From what he says he thinks giving up first round hurt him as the army took out well above average numbers of Berserkers, which put him on a perpetual backfoot. No one ever got the double turn either, so it was just attrition.
Any suggestions I can offer him? I want him to know he didn't get a ****** of an army, far from, but that there are just plain good and tough match-ups in this hobby too.
firewall and runesmitters ability to teleport a unit. that should help with the shooting. not sure how many drops the storm cast player has but the list i use is 4 drops. this helps in picking who goes first. if you go first try to hold points and/or do a 9" charge his key unit. I run hermdar so at least if your shooting my runefather on mgamadroth having the -1 to wounds helps.
-
So anyone else think taking Drakes with living city battle trait to allow teleporting Drakes to blow up anything. Also seeing how the teleport doesnt count as moving (wording) they can double tap. So 10 dudes 20 shots 2 of which are cannon shots especially when attacking monsters its pretty cray. Now imagine 4 units of 10 popping up and basically deleting anything.
-
thanks for the response and as Azamar said 1 trait per battalion. Ill be running the list tomorrow. I have decent mobility so point takings should be okay and i can pack a punch. I hope the liat does well cause it looks so nice on the table

I've been sold hard by lots of Grimwrath Berserkers, a buddy of mines running:
Priest Leader
Banner
Banner
3x5 of the shooting dwarfs
11-12 Grimwraths
Using Lofneir so they all run 6's turn 1, and run and charge near the general, and have a 3+save and 5++ in combat. They fight twice, are aggressive and punch way above their weight class. Its super cool and oddly hard to fight again. But its also super fun. I think it really captures the spirit of the old 'daemon/giant slayer' heros.I think you mean vorstag not lofnrir. Grayfryed would be great to explore also getting 3+ items is dope but you can make a bunch of your heroes attack at the sameish time.

Which will ruin everything.
i dont think this will be faq im sure it was done on purpose seeing how the Doomseeker is also not a leader

i assume battletombe trumps app

With that many heroes wouldn’t Greyfyrd be a good choice of lodge?
i wad thinking that at first but that +1 army wide charge is so good or the -1 to wound being by the general and the take the first turn combat ability. the GWB will be used to charge a unit and keep it separated or used as speed bumps like the gyro copters in the previous edition (b4 aos)
-
Okay hell folks this is my fiirst attempt at a comoetitive (well i think its competitive but could be wrong) list. If I go vorstag game plan will be run down army. if I go Hetmdar a little slower rush down and more positioning
fyreslayers 1980/2000 pts
fyreslayer allegiance ability: Vorstag or Hermdar
invocation: fire wall
battalion: lord of the lodge
scenery: forge

I played two small games agaist my friends fyreslayers using the new rules, and hearthguard berserkers are scary! And the army as a whole has become a lot better. His list wasn't at all optimal but neither where mind.
he had
10 vulkite berserkers
5 hearthguard with the axe
5 auric shootydudes
And a whole assortement of heroes including a magmadroth with a keyguy on it.
My first list was throggoths and I won on objectives because my friend wanted to just test the damage his guys could deal and had we not played knife to the hearth that ended by turn 3 he would've tabled me hard.
my second list was a shooty/magicy stormcast list that really highlighted the weaknesses of the fyreslayers, yes the hearthguards could easily dispatch two groups of 5 sequitors worth double their points, but every turn he lost more heroes to my magic, longbow guys and ballista and by the time he was close enough to engage his heroes where dead.
he should have used the wall of block line of sight? I assume no preists were used but incantation will help againt sniping characters. Also since Grimwrath and doomseekers are not leaders you can take a bunch of solo speed bumps.
Also the runeson on mag is amazing if you have 2 close to eachother since they let you reroll all hits even the magmadroth which is huge
-
it would be nice to get new units but if the magmadroth is good i think the army would look sweet as a VB spam with droths. I think the new tombe will bring new flavour. Heck we dont even know if the VB will get their 4+++ just have to wait and see.....not gonna lie i hate waiting...

Ah smart thinking with the battalion.
Would it be wise to teleport into the starting forest to block it, or is that suicide?
... By Grimnir, I hate fighting Sylvaneth 😒
I have 20 but would like 30. Or two units of 20.
hmmm sounds like suicide to me. if you teleport your units in the right positions and conga line them then there wont be many optimal places for them to land. your main goals are the objective markers so if you can hold the line where needed ie reroll saves and 4+ save anything you may come out ahead. really depends on how you play.

Yeah the better save is nice too. Especially with the reroll from the battlesmith. ^^
On another note. Anyone got any advice against sylvaneth? I'm getting a regular beatdown in our firestorm campaign
Their wyldwood spamming and spells are annoying. And they feel about as tanky as my troops with their dryads. 😧
from my experience rune master does well against sylvaneth and LOTL gives us a chance to go first ie teleport your VB in good position to stop tree spam in specific spots.

the runeson I think is the now go to leader. cheap as hell with a great command ability reroll 1s to wound for all attacks shooting and close combat that is pretty big

I've been list building lately, I'd love some feedback!
Battlesmith
Runesmitterx3
3x30 Vulkites
2xHelstrom rocket battery, allies ironweld arsenal
It's your pretty standard fyreslayers tricks just with some ranged output allied in!
i assume you are teleporting your 3 units of vulkites so how will the battle smith keep up? id drop a runesmiter to keep 1 unit to protect your artillary. leaves you with 120 points to play with and maybe take a stronger character
-
that runeson on foot did his command ability just become pretty good? is he usable now as a cheapo leader choice???
so the lotl has a rule which allows us to seize the turn clearly indicated in the rules and people are saying they can't use it? the faaak are peeps on. sure MAYBE that rule will be removed but until it is removed its totally legal or gw would of updated it in the recent faq... also in the rule it clearly indicates and i quote "abilities take presedence over core rules" page 11 third point... so whats the issue here? what argument does someone have against that? the oh i believe gw is going to remove this so because i believe gw is going to remive this you can't use it.... If I was using lotl formation id use it seeing how its one of my abilities just like if i was playing against somone who has the rule i let then use it... just saying

in the tourney scene can you only take artifacts from your own book/ghb? or can you take land specific ones?
