  1. So the only thing that you get specifically for Bloodknights if you go with Kastelai is that Set up Rule and Blood Knights Battleline, am i right? The other ability is for all Kastelei Vampires.

    I think we have to see the other Bloodlines, because only for the Set up Rule its not worth going kastelei in my opinion.

    No, not exactly. Think of it like this.

    Turn 1 your unit of 10 Black Knights dies. We will call it unit A.

    Turn 2 you get to resurrect something. You choose unit A. You get 5 Black Knights.

    Turn 3 you get to resurrect something. Since resurrection does not "use up" a destroyed unit, you can just select unit A again and get 5 more Black Knights. Your previous replacement unit of 5 Black Knights need not even have been destroyed for you to do this.

    If one of your replacement units of 5 Black Knights dies (let's call it unit B), you get the choice of choosing unit A or unit B for resurrection. But since unit A will always bring back more models, you should always choose that one.

    You can think of it like this: The smallest size a resurrected unit can be is half the size of the original unit that you included during list building which got destroyed at some point. Because once they are destroyed, they remain a legal target for resurrection. Even if they have been previously resurrected and their replacement unit is still on the battlefield.

    Yeah you’re right, that makes the ability much better.

    This thread before Warhammer fest: GW HATE STORMCAST, NO REALES FOR 3 YEARS, GIVE ME ANYTHING, I WOULD LOVE SOME SPEARS

    After warhammer fest: I HATE THIS ARMY, WHY GW FORCE US TO BUYING NEW MODELS, NEW MODELS ARE UGLY, I'M SELLING THIS ARMY 

    wtf guys 

    Sorry but no one that I know and I didn’t read about it wanted specifically new Models. We wanted a Rework of Stormcast, a update of the old models, allegiance and so on. And not to buy new models!!! Stormcast have the biggest range of models and possibility’s but all are bad atm. So throwing out new models is the right way to handle it, you think?

    And i can bet with you that the new models will be way better than all old ones. And there will be no rework.

  4. Didn’t someone posted 2 weeks ago everything about soulblight? He said also Max unit size of skellies will be 20. Everything of his predictions seemed true till now. And it was before warhammer fest leaks. 
    edit: here it is: it was on the 30 of April!! This can’t be random luck.

    We could potentially see endless spells or terrain in the second wave but I for one doubt it. 
    Gravesites are still in and while 20 skeletons per box is great it also points to them being used in large hordes. 

    We may be closer to LoN than I thought previously. 

    Hope youre wrong

    You can play with Startcast that use mostly older units. What do you excepted from posterboys that stormcast are? That they wont receive new models? 

    I only said that i realised that stormcast are not the army for me.I like their style, their look and their Story. But i didn’t realised before that playing stormcast is like building a new army every 2 years. But now I After know it i will go a different way.

    Too bad that you are totally wrong xD. From Vanguard chamber wave only longstrike see play and birds. From Sacrosant only foot evocators and incators. Rest is good old warrior chamber xD. 

    Edit and balistas sometimes. The point is that SCE are best when you mix old with new. 

    And now to your post, you say I’m totally wrong but you say that After I have build a competitive list of 2000 points. I had to buy/paint

    - 9-12 longstrike+birds after vanguard

    - 10 Evocators and 1-2 Incantors, 4 ballistas and a Ordinator after sacrosant

     

    so what stays from your warrior chamber? 3x5 liberators?

    Ok,

    1. after vanguard was the only competitive list a lot of Longstrikes with aetherwings. 

    2. Before it was a lot of Paladins in a Hammerstrike Force or Skyborne Slayers

    3. after Sacrosant it was a big unit of 20 Sequitor (Till points got erratat)and Foot Evocators (till errata)with Gavriel Bomb.

    maybe 4 Ballistas and Ordinator too (till he got changed)

    Im looking at it from a competitive tournament view, so tell me I’m wrong? After each update you have to buy and paint a lot of models to be competitive again.

    to 1: Buy/paint 9-12 longstrikes, knight azyros

    to 2: Buy/paint 10 paladins, lord celestant

    to 3: Buy/paint 20 Sequitors,10 Evocators, Gavriel, 10 Evocators, 4 ballistas and Ordinator

    On other army’s you get a new hero or maybe a new unit but not that extreme. I have now over 5000 points of stormcast laying around.And guess what, we are getting new models with 2+ save? New battleline option that will be better than the rest, because else no one would buy it.

    and if someone likes it it’s ok, but I realized for myself that this is not the right army for me. I want to build my army and play with it, not change it every 2 years.

  9. Feels like you have to buy a new stormcast army every 2 years if you want to be competitive. I’m stormcast player since the beginning but now I decided to give up my stormcast and start a soulblight army. I’m very happy with my decision. I think even in the new battletome they won’t upgrade any warscroll, only make the new models better so they can sell a lot...(till they get a new errata) Goodbye my stormcast, I will miss you.

    i don’t want to spread toxity, only want to share my opinion.

  10. Really wanna see some warscrolls and rules, so we can start theorycrafting a little. Really wanna know if it will be a mass army or a more elite one. Hope there will be a competitive elite way to go. Like 2-3 big heroes and a lot of blood knights. Maybe some wolves as screen and/or 1 big unit of skeletons/zombies. And not something like 3x40 skeletons Style..

    I've been looking at the new mother of nightmare model, but I think she's not quite as big as some seem to think. That looks like a 60mm base at most. They cleverly hid the base and put it up higher, but when you compare her base with the 40mm base and 25mm bases in front of her, there's no way that's she's on a 100mm base.

    Just a small thing I noticed... This isn't going to be a mortarch sized character, let alone a Nagash sized one. 

    You forget that she’s staying in the back! Objectives more in the back automatically look smaller as they are. So looking at your picture, you have to take the measurement from Mini which has the Same distance.
