    I am not sure if that comment felt a bit snarky but i am optimistic that no change mean that Bonesplitterz or Ogors tome maybe coming before the end of the year or within the coming  months

    I think I got my hopes up to high expecting the new format of the GHB to change alot more, but youre right it was a tad too much

  2. Bonesplitterz and Gutbusters

    No changes here – your Bonesplitterz and Gutbusters armies are just as deadly as they always were!

     

    I dont know if I should be angry or happy. On the one hand it sort of confirms that we get a tome soon since we need some changes, but on the other hand it really annoys me that it could be a long time until we get the tome.

    "This year’s General’s Handbook also contains allegiance abilities for several factions, with expanded rules for Ironjawz, Seraphon, Wanderers, Darkling Covens, Free Peoples, Slaves to Darkness and Dispossessed. If you’re looking to make the most of these forces in your games, the book is a must-have."

    Seems that BT for Dispossesed is not yet that soon as some might have thought. 

    If they improve dispossessed I'm a ok with this. 

    I just talked with some tournament players at a local tournament and it looks like we don't ignore endless spells on a 5 up with the icon, since they don't have the "spell" keyword. So we can use the boat for more mobility.

    Gotrek.

    Ugh.

    Let him die.

    He's not a god, or even a super powered dude. He's just a really bad Slayer. He should be dead.

    He is kinda unique and special after what happens in realmslayer and if he brings me more stories about duardin he shall not die. Even if he dislikes it himself.😁

    Probably true. I don't know if this is, but it feels like the proper plastic has a bigger investment to design or cast or something because even they seem to acknowledge finecast has more issues. 

    but for me it's worth the extra effort when i go for it. Because I do avoid it... not like the plague, more like the sniffles, but stuff like mode to order is worth it in my mind. Just like this model will be. althoug, and this is separate from your argument, I more and more get the feeling the feeling the proportions are off. It might be to human like. The stockyness is gone because the legs are to high. But that might be impossible to say without a comparison model. 

    Your right he seems to have longer legs than most duardin compared to his upper body.

    He reminds me a little of the wulfrim irongrudge model I have. Personally I don't mind it too much since he is described as being bigger than most duardin.

    Anyone kitbashed a Rogue Idol? I like the FW model but I'm wondering if I can make something similar without dropping that much for one big rock boi. Plus, you know, hobby time.

    I saw some kitbashs online I'll try to find them again. There is a cool alternative model I might get, even though I got the original for cheap. 

    https://hexy.store/monsters/1304-ork-demigod-ahle-ghruda.html?search_query=Ork&results=16

    For me it fits the savage orruk look alot better than the original. I also saw a papo orc conversion for a gargant which I will do eventually as it looks far better than the GW model especially for orruks.

    The person did a really good job.

  7. If I finish my army fast enough, I will be able to participate in a 2k points tournament at my local GW. I intend to use my bonesplitterz and I will report back how it went. In my opinion bonesplitterz is still a really cool army and can be viable for competitive play as they are now. It isn't as easy as some of the newer armies, but we are better than most of the older ones. If you just use the huge amount of wounds to your advantage, you can win games with out tabeling your opponent like other armies.

    I really love the looks and lore of Savage orruks. If you are not about high level competitive play and like their esthetic there should not be anything to stop you from getting the green tide of  naked waaagh. 

    I will probably never attended any big tournaments anyway, because I don't like the mindset of some competitive player's, that play just to win.( Looking at the skink and Phoenix lists) 

    In my local area are people still playing their old stuff and some just using what they like the look of most. 

    I don't intend to speak against anyone here. I just want to point out that there is more to this hobby than having the best rules.

    I dont play my dispossesed anymore which is frustrating cause I love Dwarfs and have alot. They need SOMETHING cause atm their (debatably) free peoples with beards and slower.

    The new boatmen endless spell (with an allied wizard) may help with mobility

    The thing is if they don't change the runic icon rule we can't use the boat on a 5+. Taking the clan banner would be needed for consistency but the icon is just too good to give u IMO.

    If you take hammerers it should work since they can't take the icon.

    Okay. What would be a good starting list at 1kpts then?

    I think some people posted 1k armies in this thread. I posted some before but sadly I had no chance to test them yet. Just browse through the pages since last year september (some time after the ghb 2018) and the feedback of everyone on the units heroes and combos.

  10. Im a Dispossessed player and wanted to ask what units got better without allegiance synergy. So which units and combos got better as allies in your eyes? Maybe its still too soon to tell, but id like to use some to help my dispossessed mobility wise so probably a runesmiter with a unit of hearthguard berzerkers.

  11. So I'm going to play at my local GW soon for my first time and I'm currently building my orruks. 

    Can you suggest any 1000 points list?

    You can suggest anything as I have enough miniatures, even though some are not build yet.

    I thought of 

    1 Prophet

    1 Orruk warboss on boar with banner

    30 Savage orruk arrowboyz 

    2x5 maniaks 

    + Soulsnare shackles 

     

    Or swapping the arrowboyz for 30 morboyz and bumping one maniak unit to 10

    I'll sadly miss that more then likely. Keep us posted....and all you venerable Longbeards, be sure to grumble about Dispossesed so they know we're itching for support!

    Will do. Maybe we should send them a copy of a book of grudges and every day they didn't release a dispossessed Battletome since AoS gets an entry.

    Do we know for certain that the save is gone? After all, when Bonesplittaz got their second wound, their Warpaint save just moved from their warscroll to the Allegiance Abilities.

    If they keep their save a 10 man unit of vulkites will be at least 180 points, probably more. Bonesplitterz don't get a save after save.

    Well, my opponent's list was so full of mortal wounds that investing points in better saves would have been wasted points. I'm not sure it will be the case for every other of my potential opponent's lists, though. I don't possess Ironbreakers models though, nor Irondrakes... can I still had hopes of winning some small scale games ? (500-1000pts)

    Do you find Inspiring command trait more useful than Resolute from the dispossessed allegiance? If I want to play Order as my allegiance, I bet I have to buy that Order book... but will it still be a thing in the future? Or will battletomes and GHB get more updates than it?

    You don't need the order book, even the battalion in it for Dispossessed is now free in the app and the allegiance is in the core book now.
