I like it, and it's certainly less than Maatmag by Mierce Miniatures, but it's also out of stock. Boo!

From the pictures I've seen, a serving platter will work.

Finding a War Mammoth is the hardest part.

My Harbinger has arrived! Unfortunately he is just a little too expensive for my Affliction Cyst. Not like they need the extra save. I will work him into my future Blight Cyst list.

I admit, I may have some Skaven blood running through these veins. Here's my thought on dirty Death tricks at low point values... Festus and Rustfang (140 points). Land Curse of the Leper and Rustfang on the same skeleton horde. They go to a 7+ save and (assuming I read the FAQ correctly) stay at 7+ if they are returned to the battlefield. Non-rend attacks increase wounds by 50%. Daemon general + Pestilent breath/Bountiful Swarm (cost of the general). This one is more finesse, but attempts to break a bubble wrap. Pestilent breath is used to thin the horde, bountiful swarm kills a specific model to create a "formation gap." The goal is to kill enough models (that have to be removed from the formation gap) that someone can get to the hero. Any wizard (100+ pts). Set the cycle to 5 every turn so that it is 6 every round. Pick off the necros.

I'm pretty sure I didn't say that. Both PTWB and Blades were 2 excuses to bring Marauders. Now they aren't. The secret to fighting death is to kill the heros. If you bring no tools to get past the hordes, you will probably get stuck.
-
Now it is trivially stopped. Unbind at 30" really knocks the wind out of those sails.
-
My problem with the loss of Plaguetouched is the combined loss of Blades. What shall I throw on Marauders to justify their inclusion when all mortal battalions must now include 3 units of kings?
-
I reread this (p58 of MoN), you must pick one allegiance. If you pick Nurgle, you get to use the book.

Battletome errata is up: https://whc-cdn.games-workshop.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/age_of_sigmar_maggotkin_errata_en.pdf Cannot spam LoA, LoB, or HoD commands. No listed revisions for Everchosen battalions, except Grand Host: https://whc-cdn.games-workshop.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/age_of_sigmar_everchosen_errata_en.pdf It looks really official now.
-
I'm skeptical that it will continue to be. GHB18 seems to have removed all 6 battalions from Everchosen, though I haven't held the book personally. Everchosen only listed the 3 units. New warscrolls are imminent, removing summoning spells and cleaning up key words, for the new edition. That said, plaguetouched isn't completely dead even if it is Everchosen only. The penalty is heavy though... no Nurgle traits, artifacts, spells, contagion cycle or summoning. I can't find any evidence of Everchosen artifacts or spells...
-
Do we know what allegiance Plaguetouched is? I didn't see any of those scrolls under Everchosen on the video I watched.
-
Darnit, I think I have to name him Waldo now. But yeah, I like these trays because it gives a much more horde feel. I still can't make those Marauders survive, but I have a Harbinger on the way.
-
If you can get the Cogs on the table, those charges are +3. Edited to add a picture of my 4th game, first full 2k points/teamed up with Death. Please forgive the unpainted GUO.
-
There's the confusing wording about shooting a unit within 3" of another friendly unit. I am hoping that language is FAQd
-
Is there a more general ruling, or is it harby specific? Will the "+x" abilities stack?
-
I wonder about magic though. Is there any spell as important as changing the corruption phase? How much magic do we bring to manage it, and how much more do we bring to add an endless spell to the list? I'm worried even Glottkin + GUO isn't enough.
-
I played an almost identical 1k list twice (substitute sorcerer for Festus, 4 blightlords, 10 fewer marauders) and the Marauders did nothing. I'm thinking about moving to Blightkings.

The vampiress is from the coven throne. I changed up her hands to give her a more invocation pose. The sword is the black knight leaders sword, pinned to appear suspended in air. The horse is a spare hexwraith horse . The flames are green stuff. These may not be normal bits to have lying around, but I've been kitbashing this army for a while.
-
I have a vague understanding of the last few summoning releases to help with this. Take it apart as you wish. Legions of Nagash: new warscrolls for current models, no update for old/unrelated models (Tomb Kings, Flesh Eaters). "Legends" book(?) to take care of obsolete models. Summoning applies based on keyword SUMMONABLE. Maggotkin of Nurgle: Warscrolls for those in the book, some unlisted warscrolls (example: Exalted Great Unclean One) updated as well. Summoning is a point system, like Seraphon. Points for summoning are listed either in the book, or on the card. Seraphon warscrolls one way or another need to be updated to remove the spell. The points costs are in a table we have already seen. Any new model will probably have summon points attached to the warscroll.

TGA Ultimate Guide to Bases in Age of Sigmar
grungolah replied to Ben's topic in Age of Sigmar Discussions
I have finished my hell cannon basing journey. The answer is "depends. " if you have all the extra goodies (chains and piles), you want a 170mm oval. All the smaller bases mess up the chains I have seen bare bones hellcannons on much smaller bases.
-
As for expanding the army, after blood knights, you have your battlelines. Black coach, the throne, bats, dire wolves, vampire lords all fit the theme.
-
Using leftover undead bits, I put this general together. Honestly at this scale anything painted goth could be a vampire.

You youngin's and your newfangled "rage quits." Back in my day, we didn't have chat rooms to BROOD and shower our discontent on happier people. We were sad, lonely gamers, and we LIKED it! /grumpyoldman Yes, I'm doing a Dana Carvey bit. Who? hashtag exactly Back in the day, I dreamed of what every gamer dreamed of back then: a real job that would pay for my ridiculously expensive hobby. Well, I got my wish, and 300 miles I moved to get that money to buy those figs. To celebrate, I did something I only afforded once before... to travel to and enter Nagash into the Golden Demon '99. And that, my friends, was the last Games Workshop ever heard of me. In 2008, I found a figurine to paint. Not GW. In 2014 or so, I found a guy who wanted to play a tabletop game... wasn't WFB though... Years later, Nagash had been resurrected, and I had a new model to paint and a community to complain to. So yeah, 2017 .... "Rage restart"
