    Sylvaneth, which delayed the whole release by several month, and latest Horus Heresy Black Book where it was a "we have no clue where exactly the shipment is" kind of answer.

    AoS 3 - Maggotkin of Nurgle Discussion

    in Maggotkin of Nurgle

    Posted

    Hello,

    I want to get into AOS again and chose Nurgle for it, so after reading some stuff up I wanted to pick your brains to see if the list I have in mind is an okay list worth building up to.

    Allegiance: Maggotkin of Nurgle
    - Grand Strategy: Hold the Line
    - Triumphs: Inspired

    Leaders
    Lord of Afflictions (210)*
    - General
    - Command Trait: Overpowering Stench
    - Artefact: The Splithorn Helm
    Bloab Rotspawned (300)*

    Battleline
    5 x Putrid Blightkings (250)*
    5 x Putrid Blightkings (250)*
    4 x Pusgoyle Blightlords (440)*
    - Reinforced x 1
    10 x Plaguebearers (150)*
    10 x Plaguebearers (150)*

    Units
    3 x Nurglings (105)
    3 x Nurglings (105)

    Core Battalions
    *Battle Regiment

    Total: 1960 / 2000
    Reinforced Units: 1 / 4
    Allies: 0 / 400
    Wounds: 157
    Drops: 3
     

    The idea is to have the Plaguebears hold backfield objectives, while the Nurglings use Hidden infestation to generate summoning points and annoy the opponent. The Blightkings und Blighlords are there for marching down the field and spread the gift of Nurgle, while bashing some skulls in.

    I am open for any kind of advice and ideas.

    How all battleforce cost 160€???? Id vampires are 220€ in minis and slanesh almost 300€. Then vampires have 25% disccount only and slanesh almost 50%??

    This isnt fair lol

    It's not as bad as you say... the Slaanesh box is 247.5€ GW list price in value while the Soul Blight box is 230€ in value. Overall it doesnt matter how much you save if you dont plan on buying it anyway...

    First of all thanks for the input, the thing is that for the time being the two bodies that were supposed to be Leadbelchers from the Feast box are converted into the Butcher and Slaughtermaster (thanks to having bitz from all the available Ogre kits). That limited my choice in regards of the batallion.

    The whole thing is just an thought experiment at the moment (because I got my hands on the Feast box during Black Friday) "How can I get a side project to 2000p for cheap".  If I expand the list and collection there would be Leadbelchers on the "to buy" list for sure because they enable further batallions.

     

    Regarding your questions in regards of the mount trait and extra spells:

    Well I misread Metalcrunsher (one should always read the full text....) first so I discarded that choice, but on a second thought it sounds tempting, Clatterhorn... well I dislike the drop off, that's why it wasnt my choice.

    In regards of the extra spells I didnt spend much thoughts yet I have to admit. Like I said thought experiment (at least for the next week... before the greed for grey plastic awakens...).

    Hm I need some feedback for a cheap start for the Mawtribes. It's based on getting the half of the Feast of Bones box, a SC Beastclaw Raiders, a box of Gluttons, a box of Ironguts and conversions for the Butcher and the Slaughtermaster. It most likely isnt the best or most competitive  but it's only meant as a start.

    Allegiance: Ogor Mawtribes
    - Mawtribe: Bloodgullet
    Mortal Realm: Shyish
    Frostlord on Stonehorn (400)
    - General
    - Trait: Nice Drop of the Red Stuff!
    - Artefact: Ethereal Amulet
    - Mount Trait: Old Granitetooth
    Butcher (140)
    - Cleaver
    - Lore of Gutmagic: Blood Feast
    Slaughtermaster (140)
    - Lore of Gutmagic: Molten Entrails
    Tyrant (160)
    - Artefact: Splatter-cleaver
    2 x Mournfang Pack (140)
    - Culling Clubs or Prey Hackers with Iron Fists
    2 x Mournfang Pack (140)
    - Culling Clubs or Prey Hackers with Iron Fists
    12 x Ogor Gluttons (400)
    - Pairs of Clubs or Blades
    4 x Ironguts (220)
    1 x Ironblaster (120)
    Tyrant's Gutguard (120)

    Total: 1980 / 2000
    Extra Command Points: 1
    Allies: 0 / 400

    AoS 2 - Gloomspite Gitz Discussion

    in Destruction

    Posted · Edited by Vaux

    Hey ya Gitz,

    I am thinking about starting a new AoS army and want some input from experienced Gloomspite players. The whole idea is to take a slow approach and not buy a large amount of models and have them sitting around and be soon after forgotten about. So I just planed the first 500 points and an expansion to 1000 points.

    Without further ado here is the 500p starting list.

    Allegiance: Gloomspite Gitz

    Leaders
    Skragrott, The Loonking (220)
    - General

    Battleline
    20 x Stabbas (130)
    - Pokin Spears & Moon Shields
    6 x Squig Herd (70)
    6 x Squig Herd (70)

    Total: 490 / 500
    Extra Command Points: 0
    Allies: 0 / 200
    Wounds: 50

     

    And with an extension to 1000 points I thought about a list going into this direction, but I am unsure what to spend the remaining points on.

    Allegiance: Gloomspite Gitz

    Leaders
    Skragrott, The Loonking (220)
    - General
    Fungoid Cave-Shaman (90)

    Battleline
    40 x Stabbas (260)
    - Pokin Spears & Moon Shields
    6 x Squig Herd (70)
    6 x Squig Herd (70)

    Units
    10 x Boingrot Bounderz (200)

    Total: 910 / 1000
    Extra Command Points: 0
    Allies: 0 / 200
    Wounds: 94
     

    I am open for critique on both lists, if anyone has some ideas I am glad to hear them.

    I have to say... the new Beastclaw SC box is value... buy two of them for around 80 pounds, add another Stornhorn/Thundertusk for another 30 pounds and you are at a 2000 point army with some bodies on the table for just 110 pounds.  Good game GW for this one.

    It is absolutely real. It is from the new starter set. It is almost certainly coming out in July.

    Just out of curiosity... what new starter set are you speaking of excactly? The new Thunder and Blood set or a whole new one?

    The Black Sunz - Ironjawz - Update 28/02 - PICS! Whole new army painted!!

    Air Conditioning for flats/houses isnt that common in Europe compared to the US. And if you have almost no wind going to ease the heat it is horror.... Living in Berlin (Germany) I despair thinking about heat periods here (0 wind for several weeks in summer here).... Southern Germany had 38 degrees Celcius today... I pity those guys down there that have the same hobby as us.
