Re: Transformation of Kadon

Only a model on foot can cast the transformation and seeing as any monster base is incompatible with our infantry, the wizard would be placed beside the unit.

Re: Hellcannon and Ironcurse Icon

You actually got it wrong Red... War Machines and War Machine weapons are two distinct classifications. Any weapon falling into a war machine weapon category is one, regardless of what it happens to be mounted on. Cannons, stone throwers, flame cannons and bolt theowers are all war machine weapons a...

Re: any suggestions on how to quell a raging blood lust?

Play a two towers list.

Very few things can survive contact with a horde of frenzied witches with the cauldron or a borde of frenzied execs.

Re: Can Kouran make other characters unbreakable?

I think the crux lies in an answer to a question "what can change the nature of a unit?" To me, a unit of BG will always be a unit of BG plus potential attachments. Calisson believes that the unic ceases to be a unit of BG and becomes a less defined "combined unit" which would ne...

Re: Summoning Deamons? Oh boy....

Storm of Magic didn't allow to summon demons during the game though, but it does have rules to include demons in any army through demonic pact rules. Those demons you still have to pay points for and don't have to summon (but they can be banished by your opponent via a cantrip spell...)

Re: A question on steadfast

That's why you take a narrow, but deep, formation to withstand an onslaught from a stronger enemy unit.

Re: Now with 50% Heroes...

At roughly 100 points per model... bring it! An entire army consisting of... 30 models or less? My execs can handle that on their own.

The limitation is that warlocks generate two very specific spells. They have no option to change them for anything else.

Re: New FAQ - 50% Lords and Heroes now are a Part of the BRB

Already gave Malekith a shot in a 3000 points game... He was the least effective choice in my army (less so than even Scourgerunners) but the best cannon magnet I could've dreamed of.

I think for competitive play, sinking back into avoidance play until things settle down will be a safe thing to do.

Because as fun as it sounds, flying around proper tarpits is impossible in a well constructed tarpit army.

And if there are gaps, then the army is prepared to deal with anything attempting to exploit them.

So the first was a dwarf gunline... hmm, might have something to do with an ability to deal with expensive solo characters. So now people who lost to a dwarf of all armies will wake up and realize characters don't make an army. Why would three demon princes engage? Simple, otherwise they won't win t...

Yes, they will do it. Then they will realize it sucks and stop doing it. Herohammer this is not when any number of heroes can get bogged down in a unit of skavenslaves.

Ridiculous. so you could have lists with the 25% core requirement, and then the rest of the force just be characters all around. Whether that's good for dark elves as an army or not aside, I don't like what it does to the game. Yes you can, I wouldn't recommend it because you won't win and your opp...

Good luck with pegmaster spam once you realize you can't break any unit bigger than a few ranks. I've already been prepping for this. Lore of metal and lore of death will become my close friends. Yup. Can't say I'm too happy about the change in principal. In practice, I just won't voluntarily play a...

Re: Can Kouran make other characters unbreakable?

The resulted combined unit would be an impossibility in the rules so either the game would implode, or characters that are not Kouran would have to be forcefully ejected from the unit. You see characters in a unit as separate entities but they really aren't. As long as they're with the unit, they co...

Re: Can Kouran make other characters unbreakable?

It would, because characters that are not unbreakable themselves cant join unbreakable units. The point is actually moot if Kouran joins the Black Guard first - no other characters van join that unit afterwards. But any characters that were with the Black Guard before Kouran joined are not strangely...
