    Remember that a model doesn’t only ‘earn its points back’ (if there even is such a thing) by deleting something that costs the same points. The value of a unit is much more than just numbers or its kill:death ratio.

    Pretty sure you just summed up the history of the internet.

    Also have a list, this one depends on the ships actually doing some work and the Rigger healing being good, but here we go. Should be thematic at least: Zilfin Balloon Hero 220 (maybe general - extra rigger heals trait, Zilfin +1 to hit artefact) Navigator 100 (rule of cool) (maybe general - +3” ship move, auto dispel artefact) 2x6 Riggers 2x200 10 Thunderers 240 10 Arkanaut 90 2x Frigates 500 2x Gunhaulers 300 (3x traits tbc) Escort Wing 140 1990 So it’d be 6 riggers per Frigate keeping it healed up and they could hitch when they moved. Balloon hero to oversee and boost the heals. Other stuff to shoot. Optimistic hoping that their shooting along with the boat shooting can take stuff down with the assorted buffs. Might give it a whirl at the weekend once I have the book.

    A man after my own heart.

    Does anyone have a list of all the new points anywhere?
  6. 5kaven5lave
    So Balloon Boys can’t ride in ships anymore, just hitch a lift? Guess you’d be running smaller squads to repair and protect / screen ships?

    Thought Jervis was the other one? Isn’t there also a third guy now?

    There’s only one way to solve all these rules conjecture discussions: MAN READS BOOK My soul is prepared.

    Was thinking a second LoA to be honest. Let us know if you get any games in!!

    Nice work on all the flies!! Maybe a second hero instead of 2 Pusgoyles (unless you want the narrative of the Lord of the Flies with his flying horde)?

    Mini batrep from my game last night with the list below: Allegiance: NurgleMortal Realm: HyshVerminlord Corruptor (280)- General- Trait: Grandfather's Blessing - Artefact: The Witherstave - Lore of Virulence: Glorious AfflictionsPlague Priest on Plague Furnace (200)- Artefact: Aetherquartz Brooch Lord of Blights (140)Gutrot Spume (140)Festus the Leechlord (140)- Lore of Malignance: Blades of Putrefaction5 x Putrid Blightkings (160)5 x Putrid Blightkings (160)5 x Putrid Blightkings (160)40 x Plague Monks (280)- Foetid Blades20 x Plague Monks (160)- Foetid BladesBlight Cyst (140)Balewind Vortex (40)Total: 2000 / 2000Extra Command Points: 1Allies: 0 / 400Wounds: 165 Won by 1 point on Places of Arcane Power vs. a Stormcast Stardrake list. Key headlines: The Furnace freakishly died in one round of combat to an Arcanum on Tauralon so my Brooch was down the pan turn one. Blightkings were brutal with the rend and well worth the points. New Monks warscroll is much more friendly and still lethal with Blades of Putrefaction. What basically won me the game was the cheeky 6 inch move coming down off the Balewind so Festus could run onto the objective. So great game and really enjoyed picking up Nurgle again!!

    MUST. HAVE. NAVIGATOR.
  13. 5kaven5lave
    Have I missed something? I saw the community article but not sure why so many people seem to be upset.
  14. 5kaven5lave
    Yeah, you can sympathise with people who love the aesthetic but didn’t like the rules fiasco though.
  15. 5kaven5lave
    Anyone else going to try and wait for the FAQ to drop before they purchase any plastic?
  16. 5kaven5lave
    Yep. Get ready to take off all those Skyhooks guys.
  17. 5kaven5lave
    Hopefully the army will become a bit more balanced and have some decent melee options as well as the shooting we love. And some decent gunboats. Not a huge amount of minis in that box though or is it just me?
  18. 5kaven5lave
    New hero, Tzaangors and a some Screamers in the new box then?
  19. 5kaven5lave
    @Zplash Grim. And nonsensical. Thanks for clearing that up, Witherstave is the go-to then.
  20. 5kaven5lave
    Also, is it legal to run that STD battalion inside Nurgle allegiance? Don’t know the ins and outs tbh, just wanted to be sure after Plaguetouched. @sal4m4nd3r are you sure that Foul Regenesis isn’t in the Lore of Nurgle? It is on that double page I think?
  21. 5kaven5lave
    Actually, are people even running Blades of Putrefaction anymore?
  22. 5kaven5lave
    I think an extra CP is always a win with those command abilities. Speaking of which, now Skaven is more fairly priced and that horrific Plague Monk warscroll is sorted I think some of my beloved Nurgle / Pestilens might be on the cards again. Gonna have a bash at this over Xmas I think: Allegiance: NurgleMortal Realm: HyshLeadersVerminlord Corruptor (280)- General- Trait: Grandfather's Blessing - Artefact: The Witherstave - Lore of Virulence: Glorious AfflictionsPlague Priest on Plague Furnace (200)- Artefact: Aetherquartz Brooch Lord of Blights (140)Gutrot Spume (140)Sorcerer (120)- Lore of Malignance: Blades of PutrefactionBattleline5 x Putrid Blightkings (160)5 x Putrid Blightkings (160)5 x Putrid Blightkings (160)Units40 x Plague Monks (280)- Foetid Blades20 x Plague Monks (160)- Foetid BladesBattalionsBlight Cyst (140)Endless Spells / Terrain / CPsExtra Command Point (50)Total: 1990 / 2000Extra Command Points: 2Allies: 0 / 400Wounds: 165

    Is there any way to include some of this new STD goodness in Nurgle allegiance then? Was hoping to include a Daemon Prince or the Shrine but the buffs only work on STD units, so... Marauders? Shame the models are so awful.
  24. 5kaven5lave
    Just building the first Sisters of my new army. Cannot believe how dynamic these models are. Absolutely fantastic sculpts, can’t wait to paint them up.
  25. 5kaven5lave
    Are they worth it in a unit of 10 chaps?
