Sounds like its time to just go around the empire and raid his defenseless villagers, while he's hauling a ton of iron across country after us. After all we still move faster don't we? Yeah, its dice that make this game interesting. Anything can happen. If it weren't for dice the druchii would have ...

I have no problem with the same topics resurfacing. Not everyone is a veteran user, so it makes complete sense. Also, you can always choose to ignore. And I only use purple on my Sorceress. My main color is black armor with red robes. Totally truth. It's almost impossible to find something in a sea...

Ok I can see some problems here with either base. If I use the regular monster base, I would measure movement, charges, los, etc from the base, which is fine. It also gives it a lower profile from cannon, catapult attacks. However when making flame attacks, my mouth would extend far beyond the monst...

Check your rule books, you don't fear what you hate! Full stop, no Phyc tests for hatred, therefore not effected by fear.....still need to take a break test though! Dude, can you tell me exactly where it says "You don't fear what you hate." I have to know! All I found is where it says "like frenzy ...

Its so ironic, I was thinking of this exact topic today. I cannot find it clarified anywhere and was about to do something stupid, such as call a roolz boy... I discounted it, since I could get a 0 save but recently my highborn has been getting into some nasty combat with things like Vampires etc, s...

The metal head is gonna go onto the front of my O&G Boar Chariot (you know, like the bull's heads on the front of cowboy-Cadillacs and will be painet as a Green Dragon's head Yeeeehaa! Now that's very orcish, I like it. Was wondering what to do with my extra head... if only I could get it to sh...

I have been using a hydra for a bit now, but have found problems with line of sight arcs, ranges, and flank frontage. I think the fairest way to base mount her would be to include her heads, with one of those chariot bases. I don't want to put her on a regular monster base because I think it would b...

I don't use purple because everyone else does.

I found a nice glossy black and red paint in a model store that looks just like those plastic leather clothes. Witch elves, beastmasters, apprentices, and anything else with lots of skin showing look downright kinky that way...

It's under Hatred, it states that Like frenzy no psycology test is taken for hatred. Black Guards 1 redeeming feature, i have 20, but never used them! Thank you.... Oh well they passed anyway. I thought that the sentence where it said that was kind of screwy and actually didn't mean they were immun...

Langmann, forget Fear and Terror for Black Guard, they don't take either test! They are immune to both, so not a worry. Save the points for something else! it's just a pity the Hydra Banner isn't 75 points! Under stubborn does it say that? Or is it under hatred? I cannot find it because I am not wi...

Read your rules again. In close combat the apprentices cannot be targeted as they "use the hydra's bulk to deflect attacks." All attacks must be on the hydra. Unless there is no way an enemy can target the hydra, ie doesn't have a choice between bm and hydra, just bm. Hydras get 5 S5 attacks at WS4,...

Dark Elf spearmen can fight in two ranks even in a round that they moved/charged.


Would make Spearmen useful and nicely counter the High Elf 3 rank fighting rule for their spearmen.

How about just let us have cityguard as regular core. Then I'd be just fine.

Great stuff. Not to burst your bubble but.. Why take BG if you're playing undead. Stubborn would have little effect since the enemy will likely outnumber your 15 strong BG unit and autobreak them. Black Guard are great. I've never used them myself but have seen and heard good things (like this). No...

Well I finally did it and seriously played with a 15 strong unit of black guard, instead of just futzing around with them with no plan. I was playing against the manager of our local GW, who plays VC. He takes uber units such as 10 Black Knights and the Black Coach. Strigoi Lord with regeneration, h...

Great report! But, 7 attacks for a strigoi lord, that's impossible. A normal vampire lord has 5 attacks, a strigoi gets one extra attack but can't get any more. So that would be a maximum of 6 attacks. I am pretty sure he did 7, but I could easily be wrong! VC is one book I do not have and I am def...

Thank you very much! I see people do like the batreps this way after all (I know I like them when people write batreps with a story behind them!). I don't care what anyone says, the druchii have the most colorful army with the most realistic potential for stories containing moral dilemma and persona...

I wish I could paint that well.

- langmann very true i also believe i made a simalier point earlier about said horde armys. Saying that we need the likes of flank charging and such for us to win. However i also said (this is for whaledawg mainly) it is difficult to impossible to manovuer vs such armys due to the fact that with th...

You talk about Skaven as if they are Chaos Warriors in bigger numbers! I'd happily put a 16 strong Druchii regiment against a 25 Strong rat one. I know who'll come out on top. You don't need to run around Skaven and hit them in the side, but of course it helps! In addition, if you are playing on a ...

If you then equip them with shields and light armour, you lose fast cavalry rules. Isn't that a 5th edition rule? I don't think a unit loses the fast cavalry status, while they have a 4+ armour save. Bye Thanee Yep they lose it (the gobblin wolf riders do). Besides my points are still valid regardl...

Regeneration is overpriced. Should be 40 points at most. But it's that way in all lists, altho our armour is probably the worst of the bunch, as it also has the disadvantage of being a light armour! Bye Thanee Its more than overpriced, its a tragety, I don't understand it. It makes no sense to me w...

I agree with you, Thanee, our magic definately needs to be hit with the common sense stick. It needs revising. Some of our units kick and some are never used. But its often the same with many armies. However some, like the BG, I think need a better look at. I'd rather have, maybe its just me, less i...

Ok, I`m convinced that we need a new army list, for the sake of variation and fluff. But I still think we can be just as powerfull as any other list if used correctly. On a related note, there seems to be alot of comparision between Pistoliers and Dark Riders. I think these units serve different ro...

They are trying to be cute but I have ANOTHER one: Looking through our book, and trying to find a 4+ wards save, I have found what could be close... The armour of living servitude... 6+ save with ability of regeneration. 60 points. Now to get an AS of 4+ I can add a shield and cloak. The total cost ...
