  1. I really like playing 1250 points. It always feels like a more frenetic game, and each combat is intense for fear of losing a part of your smallish army. But it's still big enough to have a decent variety of unit types. Plus, the games are a bit shorter and the movement phase isn't deadly long for horde armies.
  2. Hi everyone, I'm looking for suggestions on an Anvilguard list that contains Darkling Covens and Stormcast units. A balance between the two would be ideal. My friend and I are going to be playing a game with me as Nurgle and him as Anvilguard. I have all the Stormcast units to supply him and he has the Darkling Covens and we're looking for a cool match up between the two. I was thinking about fast mobile units and footmen to surround the Nurgle forces and force them to run/die with the Anvilguard Alliegence ability? Any advice would be great!
  3. What I do is run Gore Pilgrims with 2-3 Slaughterpriests and use Blood Bind on units to pull them out of range of their buffs. A lone unit with no 6+ ward save, no +1 to wound rolls, and no rerolling 1s for hits become pretty vulnerable. If you pull them out of wholly within 12" of a hero with one priest you can then use Blood Boil for mortal wounds. And the ignore rend is pretty useless against large units of buffed Blood Warriors who don't have rend anyway.
  4. In my area people are just cool with additions like that, even if they're not on the model. Example; my friend has a Vampire Lord model with no Chalice or wings but we just say she is hiding one in her cloak and turns into a bat swarm when she flies. But ueah, modeling one put of green stuff would be cool and fun and totally okay.
  5. FAQ from July says you can use Whipped to Fury for both.
  6. Okay cool, so it's less useful on the Daemon Prince than I thought but awesome that it works for the Warqueen. Want to use her with the Secrator in a Khorne StD list.
  7. So I have some questions about the Mark of the All-Favoured artifact. Can a Darkoath Warqueen take it and gain all the keywords? It just says the model now has them all. Also, if I take that artifact with a Daemon Prince will he gain all of the abilities from all of the Marks?
  8. Right on, thanks for the advice. Definitely leaning way toward the Skyhooks for sure! Not sure what Sky Port to take yet but having 6 Skyhooks with a Khemist to buff them sounds awesome. So probably 6 Skyhooks in the 20 man unit and maybe pikes or the other special guns in the second and third units, just for fun and variety. I was also thinking along the same lines for the Grapnels too. Yeah, looked at the models in the sprue and they look fantastically detailed, I think they'll be a blast to paint. Thinking to lean into a Black/Bronze/Gunmetal and a touch of red and white theme to mix well with some allied Stormcast Anvils of the Heldenhammer down the line.
  9. Hello everyone, Just got my hands on some Kharadron Overlords today from 2 people in my area that were selling unopened boxes cheap. I've got Battleforce box 3 boxes of Arkanauts Ironclad 1 box of Skywardens/Endrinriggers Ather-Khemist Just wondering what types of guns and weapons I should arm my units with? Seems like there is a lot of options. Also, should I build Skywardens or Endrinriggers? Consensus on this thread seems to be Endrinriggers with Saws, is that the best option for all 6? Also, does the Ironclad come with multiple options? I've downloaded the recent FAQs as well and am going to pick up the book shortly. Anything else I should keep in mind? I know its not an optimal list but they were much less expensive than buying new and I'll be sticking with these models for quite some time, just want to know how to have the most fun and play the best I can with what I have. Thanks!
  10. So does that mean that Cycle of the Storm have a very very limited utility? Someone has to score the exact ammout of wounds needed to kill a model in order for it to actually come back?
  11. Unbelievable. This is so utterly fantastic, it somehow makes me love the hobby even more. Keep up the good work!
  12. Actually, about those examples, the rule of one that states that 1s always fail and 6s always succeed after rerolls but BEFORE modifiers are applied. Wouldn't that mean that after the modifiers are applied 1s to save for a Lord Celestant would work and 6s to hit against Neferata would fail? Or do Modifiers not matter for 1s and 6s? I am confused
  13. Hahaha that death model looks hilarious. Spikey purple baloon
