Played 2 games vs. Stormcast, she’s nigh unkillable with the charm and D6 Regen, my opponent stopped bothering trying to kill her after a while.

Yep, certainly how I played them, worked well. The models look amazing as well, great kit. They take an age to put together though!!

Both really, maybe I was having below average dice but having played another quick game today I think getting full strength units into combat will be difficult. Played Knife to the Heart and the 60 Grots giving the Boss Look Out Sir! was golden.

Yeah, Rage-Grip was your shout and it helped me turn a 1 into the 5 I needed both times, was ace. With the Troggs, that 5+ save is negated really easily and I found myself losing one model at least per shooting phase versus a Stormcast army with some shooting. 5 Bravery is really low too. If the meta does go to shooting to combat DoK etc. I can see Troggs finding it tough. Think MSU Rockguts worked ok, managed to get the boulder off a respectable number of times and that 2+ hit Fellwater vomit can do some damage, shame about the short range but beggars can’t be choosers. I’m determined to keep the list more or less the same for a couple of months to see how it goes.

Both really, my MSU Rockguts managed to get a couple of throws off but the 5+ initial save is too easily rended away. My unit of 6 Fellwaters got fed to a Stardrake unfortunately, it ate 2 or 3 and the rest were shot off by turn 3. I wanted first turn to control combat but I think if I went second I could Hand of Gork something of my own choosing into the Drake instead, probably the 60 Grots.

Brief BatRep vs. Balanced Stormcast: Battleline Troggs do melt away vs. shooting but hit like a truck in combat. The Batallion actually did some work for me today so that was cool. Hag with Gryph-Feather is godlike and the Rage-Grip combo on the Boss helped me take down 2 Dracothian Guard in one combat which was immense. Won Shifting Objectives by the end of Turn 4 but by that point only the Hag was left standing. The Cauldron is great and an excellent source of MW on enemies too once you get her stuck in. A blob of 60 Stabbas really helped in the end.

IT’S TROGGOTH DAY!! EDIT: And to celebrate I rolled 2 6s to wound with my Rockguts for 11 damage total in my first combat. Batallion doing at least some work then.

Hmmm, the app can be unreliable sometimes. While we’re on about the boss, how are we gonna paint that bad mutha if we want to keep the pale skin. Spray white, purple(?) wash and dry brush it up with something like Pallid Wych?

Yeah, having done some research I agree with you now, mainly due to the fact that the Hag’s ability is called ‘Hag Regeneration’, not ‘Regeneration’ as named in the Allegiance Abilities. That said, I do think the use of ‘or’ in the wording doesn’t stipulate that a roll must take place (though obviously it does for the new ability). Doubt they’ll FAQ it but it’s safer to not play it. D6 is loads unless you’re me and keep rolling 1s!!

Cool, though so, thanks. That’s how I played it in my game last weekend.

Does the Hag get the double Regeneration under the moon?

Hoping that the new IJ book that’s heavily rumoured consolidates IJ and BS into one Orruks book with some new plastic.

I am absolutely champing at the bit to get this Troggherd on the table. Game with the bases at least confirmed for Saturday. My Friday night fun will be writing out a cheat sheet so I don’t miss anything. The hype is real.
