    How do we feel about the Kruleboyz killbow?

    I've been brainstorming spiderfang lists and it seems like a good fit for the army, it does lose the mortals, but its rend 2 and can take big chunks out of megas which is something we struggle with. They're not too pricy at 130 points each either.

    I think they are pretty good. Sadly I could only get 1 as I would always take a Dobbie for +1 to hit in combat Bubble. For 150pts its a no brainer for Gitz I feel atm

    The Bolt thrower does look tastey. It can really help vs some big monsters and yeah gives us a little tool vs Sons. I might add one also 

  3. Ok, So tried my list out last night VS Archaon and Blades of Khorne. 

    He Ran:
    Reapers of Vengeance
    Vendetta Grand Strat
    Bloodthirsty Triumph

    Bloodsecrator, General, Mage Eater, Skullshard Mantle
    Slaughterpriest, Blood Sacrifice
    Slaughterpriest, Resanguination
    Archaon the Everchosen
    Daemonprince, Crimson Crown
    3 x 10 Blood Reavers
    5 Chaos Knights
    Warshrine
    (10 Drops)

    I was running:

    We played Feral Foray and he made me go 1st

    I set up pretty defensive in case he went 1st and went for a hard push, but not too much so Id ****** myself.

    Rounds Went:

    Round 1: Dok (Ferocious Adv), completed, 4pts
    Round 1: BoK Ferocious Adv), Failed, 2pts. (One of his slaughterpriests was part of the adv, I got him to 1W from shooting then he killed himself with a failed prayer trying to heal himself)

    Round 2: DoK (Conquer) picking his far right obj. Took it and burned it for 6pts.
    Round 2: Bok (Conquer) Picked his other side obj and reclaimed it from me as I had stole it also, 4pts

    Round 3: BoK (Broken Ranks) 6pts
    Round 3: DoK ( Aggressive Expansion) 6pts

    Round 4: BoK (Savage Spearhead) 6pts
    Round 4: DoK (Savage Spearhead) 6pts

    Round 5: BoK (Slay The Warlord) 5pts
    Round 5: DoK (Slay The Warlord) 5pts

    I got my grand Strat but with killing Archaon he failed his, game ended 21 vs 30 to DoK

    The game went alright, I concentrated on clearing his army and grabbing the objs when I could, raiding his when I could. I managed to buff an avatar which held Archaon up for a whole turn (I had heart of fury, Sacrament, Mystic shield, hagg buff, cauldron buff) on it and he got 2 wounds even with attacking twice. However he used blood tithe in his hero phase to attack again where none of my buffs were viable (bar shield) and it went down over that turn (took him attacking 3 times that turn just to kill him)

    This gave me time to kill everything off by turn 4 bar some summoned blood letters, which went down turn 5 with Archaon

    Archaon getting to pile in and attack again for 1cp is nuts lol.

    So, what do the disciples of Morathi-Khaine think about the long-term viability of Blood Stalkers? Will they remain good should the Morathi interaction get nerfed, or are Sisters a safer bet?

    I think they are fine as a support unit to help snipe heroes or unleash hell

    I run 10 without Morathi-Khaine and they do fine. I dont think Id run more than 10 without her though

    Love the house. Looks very old school goblin-y, like Bakshi Lord of the Rings or Labyrinth, Are you making an entire display board of that?

    yeah I will be. Its actually based on the Goblin town in Labyrinth. There is a load of them, these are just the smaller ones that are painted. I have some floor tiles on the go also.

    I used them in a DOK game last night and look good. Only 1 in the pick. I am hoping to have another for SagaofDice recording on Tuesday

    Haven't been too impressed with the Bounderz recently so here's a list I'm toying around with that really leans into hoppers for the MW output. General strategy is to just fly around the board as much as possible capturing objectives and dropping bombs - hopefully getting some assists from the doomshroom and malevolent moon. Let me know what you guys think!

     

    Might try to find some room for Dobbie but we'll see.

    Drop 10 hoppers for dobbie. Well worth it and the 18" range will cover the manglers

    Awesome! Please keep us updated on how its working for you! 😁

    Will do, got 4 Games over next two weeks.

    I am actually thinking of dropping the SOS to WE and then dropping the Khinari to get me another HQ for some more prayer support. means I can try Heart, Sacrament and Blessing turn one. Might give her Curse and Heal. I feel Curse is a bit of a trap as it needs to be close and its a 4+ to cast (3 with avatar) but can be really good

    White Dwarf Leak:  (third hand rumor for me)

    No significant change to StD allegiance abilities.  (Blah)

    Cultists and Warqueen and Chieftain and Ogroid can take Marks

    Two StD Core Battalions?

    A few StD specific Grand Strategies and Battle Tactics

     

    Underwhelming....

    I posted the 3 pages I saw to @chumphammer on twitter

    Troggboss isn't bad in a Trogg build, but unless you're using him to buff multiple units of troggs and unlock trogg battleline I agree he's not worth his points.

    Rockguts definitely need an escort of some kind to be useful. Hopefully the new Sloggoth helps out a bit, but we'll need to wait and see. 

    Sloggoth is an auto include for me. 150pts for a 18" +1 to hit bubble is really helpful for Squigs

  10. So did my 1 day event. Went 1-2.

    I came 2nd (coolest looking) army which was run. missed 1st by 1pt.

    I outplayed all of my opponents but Gitz just dont have anything in the tank. No shinnaigans, no oompf. just generic damage and thats it. Will do more of a report but I rolled ZERO summon units in 3 games...and ZERO roars.

    Man my rolls were bad lol.

    Only got fungoing CP once.

    Bane of game 1 was Phoenix guard. Hit with Trolls/Bundo and Troggboss and just bounced.

    Game 2 was Gotrek. Avoided him but turn 3+ he got me. Also Played Veins of Ghur and 2 obj deployed his side of the table pretty much with Gotrek between me and them.

    Main thoughts other than Gitz need a new book:

    1: Rockgut Troggoths are meh. only attacks hurt when you cant buff 3's to wound
    2: Troggboss is NOT WORTH 250pts
    3: Bundo isnt that good. Without being a chunk of bodies like in Sons lists he is just a giant taget with a 4+ save. Maybe if you went all in on buffing him you would still be average.

    Oh well. Hopefully new book 2022/2023

    They do look good and I love the love the redeploy but Hexing Gotrek is going to be tough with 12" range and 7+ to cast.  Get the feeling our magic will be like Ogors: some great spells but hard to cast and not much to boost casting rolls.

  12. ill be glad to get stormcast and Orrucks out of the way. Seems they have been the only thing on show for months and we have nothing new after. Would love a gitz vs BOC set in Nov and a book update for them both as they are bottom of the armies atm from all the game data

    I like how you made some lists without Morathi and 15 bow snakes Chump, I am trying to figure out a list myself but I find my daughters hard to play and I have abit of a burn out because I lost the last 8 games or so with my girls.

    I really wanna avoid playing and all out shooting army with 15 bow snakes and Morathi

    I think I lost my 1st 8 games also when I first started. With DOK its keeping your heroes alive and keeping inside your bubbles.

    DOK feels like you wanna push it forwards and smash in turn 1/2 if you can. But realistically you want turn 3/4 (unless haggnar then can do 2/3) as thats when we get a good lot of buffs.

    DOK have a lot of good options, its just finding something which fits your style of play as how you play and how someone else plays can be totally different and what works for them might not for you.

    My list has a suprising amount of shooting, its all 10-12" effective bar the stalkers, but the 10-12 is my kill bubble. 

    Looking forward to trying my new version with the sisters back in as I played them all the time in 2nd. 

  14. So, with the nerf to cogs then its not worth it in my list. Could have gone for an artifact but decided to drop the SQ (Never got Orgy of slaughter off) and tbh I think changing out the witch aelves and using the points from SQ/Cogs to take 10 Blood sisters gives me some more unit clout
