@Kirjava13 Hopefully the name’s sorted now, I did notice but too late and you can’t edit titles or delete threads seemingly.

Now with correct name!! Here’s the new thread for our AoS 2 Battletome. Again, Skaven-speak optional but welcome. Old mini archive: https://www.scribd.com/document/325855280/Skaven-Collector-s-Guide-Revised-Updated?campaign=SkimbitLtd&ad_group=11082X693941Xef7d298153c11b726594c93933bff296&keyword=660149026&source=hp_affiliate&medium=affiliate

Yeah, I’ve heard it’s 100 from 2 sources. He is 18” for the rocket though, my bad.
-
I’ll be swapping my Engineer for a Bombardier purely for that rocket attack. Admittedly it’s only one attack but that 24” is better than the 9” pistol and it’s the same range as WLCs so he can babysit one or two and chip in with some damage as well. Same spell too. Luckily I have the Spire of Dawn Engineer but those old sculpts are fugly.
-
It does, but they get Masterclan artefacts instead and Grey Seers get a spell from their own spell lore.
-
Only one or two of Verminlords are unfortunately, check Warscrolls on the app. Also, I really don’t think the Clanrats thing is happening, it seems pretty much certain now. It’s a shame, but that’s how it looks.
-
They do have a role, I guess it’d just be skulking around somewhere near artillery pieces or something.
-
You can take any Masterclan hero as general and keep your allegiance. Happy days. A two spell caster with a great spell lore for 120 points is a massive bargain. Could do Thanquol for 400 too.

I think the Masterclan general idea is a nice getout, it’s stopped me from throwing my toys out of the pram at least.

Listened to the Facehammer podcast (at least the end bit with the Batallions), sounds like the Batallion is way too expensive and they’ve removed the 3” deep strike so I think I’ll just take more models. So here’s what I’m going to start with: Grey Seer as General, Arch Warlock, Warlock Bombardier 3x3 Stormfiends 3 WLC Doomwheel Balewind for Seer to cast Warp Lightning Vortex at 32”. 2k unless my maths is wrong. Put Grinders on the Fiends and bring them in close to objectives. Have the Bombardier babysit a couple of cannons while firing off his rockets so he can supercharge them when they have a wound or two to go. Use the Seer to cast the Vortex and irradiate an objective. Send the Doomwheel off to distract and cause chaos. Feedback appreciated!!
-
Yeah, sounds pretty similar to me, reckon I can get: Arch-Warlock, Engineer and Bombardier 3x3 Fiends 5 Acolytes 2 Cannon Some of the Batallion stuff (depending on points) Cheeky Doomwheel hopefully for about 2k
-
Probably yeah. I think we need to start a conversation about how we’re gonna get bodies if we’re going for the Stormfiend battleline route and we really can’t ally in Clanrats etc. At least with Grinderfists each unit can now deep strike if necessary and come in later to take objectives. I’ve bought 5 Acolytes today. I don’t think it’ll be enough bodies or wounds but it’ll do for a start. What kind of lists are people thinking? Warscroll Batallion? Wondering if units of 6 Fiends might work for bodies and menace. Have tried out the new Doomwheel and the shooting is pretty nice. Extra 2 wounds on the cannons is also welcome but we lose the +1 to save in shooting.
-
This looks amazing. Wonder if it’ll still be 100 points, I guess probably not with 2 casts and unbinds.
-
Double post.
-
There’s a decent chance they’ll remove the option to have 3 of one build in a unit of Stormfiends I reckon as they did with that KO unit I think. Points drop would be nice but they don’t seem to be doing many of those in new Battletomes, they just seem to change the Warscrolls to suit.
-
There’s surely no way that any army allegiance except pure Skryre is getting Stormfiends as battleline.
-
I’m damn well gonna try!! What I posted above was 1970 if your artillery was 2 cannons and a doomwheel (prays to the Great Horned Rat for an updated warscroll), assuming the new rocket warlock is about the same price as an arch-warlock. Think we will need a blob of bodies somewhere though, mine will be monks as I have 40 painted already.
-
This is true, I reckon we’d only get Stormfiends as battleline in Skryre though, else that would be too good I think.
-
Think I’ll go Skryre in the new book for my first few games at least. Rocket dude with a warlock and arch-Warlock, 3x3 fiends and some artillery, big blob of 40 Plague Monks as allies.
-
Holy ****** you guys.
-
So, that BloodBowl troll...
-
@Scythian Great work old boy!!
-
Thanks both. Have always played it like that, but you know when you have one of those moments when you wonder if you’re doing it wrong?
-
So quick rules question, if my Rockguts are hit with a -1 rend attack, can I choose the order I roll his now 6+ and the extra 5+ save?
-
Wouldn’t you just roll one dice for each effect? It reads to me like you can negate its effect on yourself and not dispel it or vice-versa.
