Have a look to the D.R.A.I.C.H.

You should find already plenty of ideas.
Still under construction.

Did anyone noticed the Web of Shadow hits are now AUTOMATIC, which they were not previously?
So it should make more or less twice as many wounds as before.
That would explain the price doubling.

Nothing in the CoB unit description can let believe that they are champions. Sure they do have the same name and stat-line as WE champs, but they are not part of a unit eligible to have champions. So they may be fluff-wise-champions, they are definitively not game-wise-champions. A champion is an up...

About Kouran and Tullaris, I see only negative mentions.
They are to be taken with their respective unit, to which they provide some interesting benefits, that can be cumulated with a standard. So you take this into account when you state they are overpriced?

In the army book, it is explicitly mentioned that the CoB is considered in all respects as a warmachine, even if the only way to have one (or more) is as "mount" for Death Hag. I saw nothing preventing any Khainite character to join it. Among Khainite characters: - the Death Hag taking the...

So, I see above that there is no consensual obvious conclusion that could be reached by all players (Druchii and opponents). Sure I'd love to allocate hits as I wish. But if my usual opponent objects because of RAW, I would hate to argue against that because it has some legitimacy. Clarification / F...

Was it specifically designed against VC, or was it an all-around army that happened to do well against VC but will be used in the same way against most opponents? Are you going to develop some anti-VC strategic guidance? That would be useful. Know your enemy ..................... Know your enemy ......

I just noticed in the Army Book: You can take Crone Hellebron along with another character as general. Hellebron would still act as general for Khainite units. There you have two characters with Ld 10 acting as generals in different places. Could be convenient! (especially with CoB-stubborned Khaini...

I am convinced that one of the most powerful use for CoB is to have a khainite army (everyone becomes stubborn) except one single über unit.

Q. Lokhir goes with the heavy armour in bestiary, plus its obvious he's wearing armour, but his armor is not in the army list. It is probably safe to assume he wears the heavy armor. Lokhir's secret

Very nice thread.
It is already included in the D.R.A.I.C.H.
