    You can download it on Google play and sign in right now.

    It seems very good. If they make it so you have to sub to WH+ and pay to unlock the book rules as well then it will be trash. For now you can see all the rules and warscrolls on there for free. There is also a working army builder.

    They are absolutely going to lock it behind those paywalls as I’m sure you’re aware. Paywalls don’t make something trash.  
     

    The app seems surprisingly good thus far. I’m sure errors and bugs will be found though

    I think a rewrite would be nice but not necessary really. Raising GUOs to 380 and Rotigus to 400 though is pure insanity that will just ensure they never see the tabletop in anything remotely competitive. And not cutting points for pusgoyle blightlords and the new plaguebearer heralds is a missed opportunity.  And basically every battalion that isn't Thricefold. 

    Those point suggestions look like they came from a player who knows next to nothing about Maggotkin and got touched inappropriately by a Thricefold list once.

    Yeah, we aren't getting a new book anytime soon. Honestly if they just changed Blightkings to exploding on an unmodified 6 I'd be reasonably satisfied.

    Might be worth trying to find room for Festus. Allows you to apply “rend” from a distance instead of relying on the rustfang to do it more than once in a battle (before the LoB gets eaten by a star drake!)

    I don't really have much room. I do love Festus though. Fortunately the LoB can't be eaten as he has 7 wounds.

  4. What do you make of my list below? I've got a 1500 point game against Stormcast with a potential stardrake. The idea is to introduce some rend with blight cyst and rustfang for a potential -2 save. The GUO will hang around with the big blob of plaguebearers buffing their attacks and debuffing with favoured poxes. He will stick about for ages with endless gift fingers crossed. I'm a little concerned about spending so many points on a battalion in a 1500 game but it should work.

    Any thoughts?

     

    LEADERS
    Great Unclean One (340)
    - Bile Blade & Massive Bilesword
    - Artefact : The Endless Gift 
    - Lore of Virulence : Favoured Poxes
    Lord of Blights (140)
    - Artefact : Rustfang 
    UNITS
    5 x Putrid Blightkings (160)
    5 x Putrid Blightkings (160)
    5 x Putrid Blightkings (160)
    30 x Plaguebearers (320)
    BATTALIONS
    Blight Cyst (220)
    TOTAL: 1500/1500 EXTRA COMMAND POINTS: 1 WOUNDS: 113

  5. Sounds like the Celestant prime gets a buff in the new battletome. Starts on 3 attacks plus some other new abilities.

    Staunch defender now wholly within. I think it's the same range.

    Lightening chariot reworked and renamed to translocation. Now counts as a setup, 9 inches from an enemy model. The translocated model is -1 to hit for that turn (not sure if battle round).

    Really?

    I'd hate to see them pull a 40k with Battletomes.

    Almost as much as the suggestions that SCE should get summoning as well. (damn you ppl are greedy)

    Narratively Stormcast should absolutely get summoning. If they want to balance out everyone should be able to summon.

    A solid year to wait for a start collecting for Nighthaunt, an army that's coming in a month with revamped units, a new battletome and a new edition, all at once? 

    They don't do start collecting sets on new model releases. It'll probably be in just under a year. Most of these nighthaunts will be in the new starter set next month though so still a bargain if you can split it with a friend or sell the stormcast.
