Thanks again for all the input, guys. Really appreciate it. I will try out the level 2 sorceress, and I've built a similar list that oncludes one. No RoH, no master on pegasus, but a dreadlord on the flyer instead. I do however not agree that playing with magic is the only way to play DE's. The buff...

Thanks for the input guys, just what I wanted. @Red...: I think you might've missunderstood (probably due to my lousy English). What I meant was that I plan to play w/o sorceress, not that I had a plan for surviving. I've not enough experience of magic in 8th to formulate a plan so far. I also agree...

So I've played my first game of 8th edition, a rather small game of 1600 points to get to know the system. I brought the level IV sorceress with dagger and lore of shadows, and the dominated the magic phase just as I thought she would, her opponent being a lever 4 nurgle sorcerer. I lost the game as...

Wanted to make sure of a thing I've thought about, and this thread kind of fits the question so I hijack it slightly.

Whip of Agony is a beastmaster's scrounge. This do mean that you get St5, +1A and AP, right?

Cool. I guess it orives the fact I haven't played for ages. Thanks!

Is it only me that find this statement kind of wrong? I wasn't aware of the possibility to put a death hag in a non-khainite unit.

I have another question about the CoB. Is it just me, or isn't the CoB much more vurnerable to cannons those days?

You use Ld instead of S for wounding.

Except executioners and GW-armed characters, which can make a big difference in combined combats.

Just a friendlly reminder, you can't choose lore appropriate to your opponent any more. You chos when you make your armylist.

They are ranked up in CC, just not gaining any rank bonus. You say the rulebook state that they make supporting attacks as normal, and then they do benefit from the horde rule too, as normal.

2 Arcane items?

I have been out of the hobby for a while, but find the new ruleset to my liking. Considering the following list, and would appreciate feedback. I'm not sure this is an in any way playable army, but it includes a few things that I've been thinking about. The sorceress will obviously use the eye to im...

And then the spell fail to new rules for bound items and he's toast anyway. How about the ward save though?

@Kheel: Var spelar du? Sounds as the guy is kind of imature, nothing much to do about that. The rest of the guys seem ok.

@Silver: We use the english rulebook, and I think you misunderstood. The rest of the players agreed with you, and told the guy off.

Shooting at enemies Corsairs < Crossbowmen Maneuverability Corsairs = Crossbows What you fail to see is that if you use crossbowmen in the same way, you lose your shooting advantage. If you want to keep your crossbowmen's shooting advantage, you'll lose their manouvrebility. In short, they fill dif...

1: St4 attacks are saved on 2+ most of the times, and at worst 3+.
2: Against St4 attacks, the PoK gives you the same effeect as a 3+ ward save. At St3 it gives you the effect of a 4+ ward save.

Hm'mm, that's not a bad idea. I might try that out instead of the crossbowmen. Problem is, that only give me 10 of them (incl FC).

Since the new book, most of my lists has been based on a Supreme Sorceress or, more rarely, a Dreadlord on Dragon. This list is something else, no magic at all and I'm looking for a rather friendly list (if not bad). So what are your thoughts? The local gaming climate means that I will not play agai...

Yes

Mordru wrote:The BSB on foot with the soulrender in the BG with the ASF flag is a good plan.

Couldn't agree more, but this BSB is mounted on a Dark Steed.

You should edit your point costs, they are against forum rules you know.

Why do you have Soulrender on your BSB? Granted it gives him AP ubt you only get +1S as he's mounted, and can't use his shield. Wouldn't Sword of Might, or Enchanted Shield and a mundane lance be better? Also, RoH and a High Sorceress doesn't really work together. You will be limitied in your moveme...

Both, actually.

I guess you mean "can only be used while mounted"?
