The other great feature of the Astral Templars is the command trait that gives every unit on the table a free 6" move at the start of the game. Combined with Chronomantic Cogs and a Heraldor to run&charge, Evocators on foot can get a turn 1 charge after buffing themselves in the hero phase. 

Wholly within 12" of general not every unit

Gavriel lists are definitely not the only competitive list - they aren't even in the top 5 of what Stormcast can do right now. The problem with the turn 1 charge list is that it has to go all-in on that strategy, but that strategy is really easy to counter. All you have to do is put up a disposable screen around your good units, and then counterattack once he takes out your screen.

Astral Templars ballistas + evocators is probably the best SC list right now because it counters the big monster meta hard (you can kill nagash in one round of shooting!) but it can still deal with melee/horde armies because 10 Evocators backed  by Rend-2 shooting solves almost any problem.

Can you tell me more? Im more than intrested :P

The idea is to drop and charge with reroll ( thx to Vexillor ) and wreck them with LCoD with 8  attacks thanks to Thunder Axe and CV artefact.

Thinking about this list for the next tournament.  What do you guys think?

[AoS 2 - Stormcast Eternals Discussion]

Why no1 is using decimators in current horde meta? vs 25 mm bases ( witch elves, skeletons, ghost ) they attack like 7-9 each. Im not talking to taking them instead of Evocators but to take 1 pack extra.  Im gonna test them next time.

My mini report from saturday tournament!

 

So I finished at second place! Here is my list and short reports and conclusions.

Tournament rules:

Realm – Ghyran

1 Battle: Fecund Quagmire - Models cannot run unless they are able to fly.
2 Battle: Hidden Festering Corruption - At the start of your hero phase, roll a dice. Add 1 to the dice roll if your army has allegiance to NURGLE. On a 5+ pick an enemy unit that is within 1" of a terrain feature. The unit you picked suffers 1 mortal wound.
3 Battle: Lifesprings - Before the battle begins, each player picks a HERO from their army. Add 1 to the Wounds characteristic of the heroes that are picked.
4 Battle: Seeds of Hope - If a battleshock roll is an unmodified 1, then no models from the unit will flee. In addition, heal all wounds that are currently allocated to that unit.

We were playing with all malign sorcery and realm futures. Extra CA, Spells, etc!

First battle vs Nurgle: Major win for me: Scenarios: THE BETTER PART OF VALOUR

His list: Herald, 30 pluguebearers, 6 drones, 5 blightkings.

Nurgle without running is really really slow. He puts his drones ahead and failed charge. I annihilated them with ogres ( they strike REALLY HARD! ) and magic. Then it was really easy just to grab obj with numbers, lock blightkings and totally ignore slow blob of pluguebearers.

Second battle vs KO: Major loose: Scenarios: STARSTRIKE

His list: 20 Arkanaut, 10 Arkanaut, Khemist, 12 Endrigers ( 3 with grapnel )

Well, i disregarded grapnels and forget that’s a flying unit can see through woods. Due to this combined with very good rolls he killed my ogres and arch-warlock. Maybe if I position myself better I could win this.

Third battle vs Seraphon: Major win: Scenarios: TOTAL COMMITMENT

His list: 2x 20 skins, Skink starpriest, Stegadon, 6 ripperdactyl, Shadowstrike starhost ( battalion )

Rippers didn’t chew through 40 clanrats so I counter attack with my ogres and magic. On the other flank 40 CR runs to his Obj. Game was rather easy but my opponents is fantastic guy so we have lots of fun. Jokes around ancient hate of lizardman and ratman were present.

Fourth battle vs Legions of Nagash: Major win: Scenarios: BATTLE FOR THE PASS

His list: Nagash ( ), 2x 10 spooky ghost ( chainrasp horde )  and pendulum spell.

Well, this game was hard. With total bulshit which nagash is in this point format i manage to win by just grapping every obj I could with numbers ( and his failed charges ). He killed everything except few CR.

Conclusions: I would trade cunning deceiver for +1 to chaos AA which I forget about and I NEVER rolled for it in entire tournament lol. 

 

Cheers guys.

What do you think about doomwheels, ratogors and hellpit abomination?

[AoS 2 - Stormcast Eternals Discussion]

I think we receive buff in the terms on units/artifacts etc but battalions were nerfed hard into the ground

[AoS 2 - Stormcast Eternals Discussion]

Its me or all all ours battalions seems pretty lame and useless?

I like Aventis rules, make him decent wizard and mellee combatant, but Soulbright is useless. Her spell is totaly useless. Maybe if this was guaranted mortal wound...
