[AoS 2 - Spiderfang Grots Discussion]

I’ve been considering a Spiderfang army for sometime. I’m wondering what other units from the book people are considering to round out some of the weaknesses of the Spiderfang Force?

At least one of those poses is extremely Eshin like, and they've been specifically mentioned pretty heavily in the latest stories which leads to many people believing they'll at least get a DoK treatment and be expanded upon. 

Currently I'm looking to sell 80 Nightrunners/Gutter Runners that I've kit bashed from the slave/unarmored clanrats and have used witch aelf hands to make them all dual wielding. I'll buy actual ones if they re-release them, but that will depend on whether they intend to go more horde oriented with it or more elite, again like DoK having the choice between witch aelf battleline and melusai for a more elite low model count army. 

Those sound awesome. Do you have pics of the Nightrunners/Gutter Runners?

I have played Evocators several times now and they have rocked every time. I would not change them at all.

You're better off taking 4 Ballistas, and a Ordinator than all those Raptors I would think?

Hmm.... both of these seem...... underwhelming? Why should I take Solbright over a Lord-Arcanum on Dracoline? It doesnt look like she gets anything special besides her spell. 

At least Firestrike has a new command ability, new spell and 2 special rules that put him above a normal Lord-Arcanum on Tauralon (well at least what I assume to be the rules for one based off the Gryph-Charger variant)

After the seeing the Nighthaunt characters yesterday these are a bit of a let down. Firestrike I can see using, the other one not so much.

Has anyone had much experience with either festus or Bloab? Trying to fill out a spot for a rotbringer sorcerer and wanted to know if either are useful

I use Festus all the time. I think he’s worth the 20 extra points over a Sorcerer. I usually camp him by my GUO or Rotigus to give them some extra healing. His unique spell is pretty awesome too.

I’ve played a few 2.0 games by now and agree on the magic front.  Blades just isn’t something to count on now, or Magic in general outside of Dagger GUOs.

My other observation is summoning has very little impact on the game.  Even late game objective play is tricky.

As sad as it makes me I am pretty sure the top of the heap for us is going to either continue to  be Plaguetouched or maybe something involving Archaon shenanigans.

Really bummed out that Menagerie seemingly isn’t viable and the Maggoth Lords remain over costed.

I've given up on Blades pretty much completely(which in turn has turned me off to units that really need it to function, like Monks). 

I think Plaguetouched will still be really strong but I also think Thricefold Befoulment is also really strong. Plague Wind through a spell portal on a Dagger/Tome GUO should be pretty strong.
