I'm glad that the general tone is positive for 9th age, as we are working very hard to balance the game. As you may have noticed, we try not to deviate too much from the 8th edition base rules, to make it easier for new players who bought the rules to swap out parts, as described in the 9th age rule...

First off, nice casts. Second, congratulations. You have not had anyone rant you down about stealing anyones design (yet). I did the very same thing, al though with "instant monld" and green stuff when I did my squigs in a few months ago. Was a whole shiz storm about how I stole the GW des...

I am very interested in a tutorial on how to make such beatiful bases. Could you please post a step by step tutorial so I can copy your lovely concept in a diarama?

And what, £20 for 30 models is even cheaper than GW.

Man i love the free market

Are they metal or plastic?
If they are plastic, I may very well order a set of them. But need to confirm that they are plastic.

Ordered the pack of 30 yesterday. 35€ for 30 models when GW charge 45€ for 10... I just think I saved me 100€ on something that may be slightly harder to glue and comes on 25mm bases... I can life with that. Honestly. They look on par or better than the GW stuff, and now you don't have to put up wit...

My thought is that you're too close with your camera lense. Stay at least one meter away, optimal two meters. And use zoom functions to optimize. Your pictures should be much clearer when the lense can focus properly. When you're too close, pictures become blurry because the lense can not focus on o...

But against chaff, it's really good. I had a 3 wounds remaining hydra to deal with skinks, and when they fled I had a open flank on a moderate sized saurus block. Against WoC I took out hiw haunds and the last two marauder horsies for the VPs. I had no other tool at hand. In most games it does very ...

if he does, dance around the unit long enough for it to kill itself. One fighty character is not enough to win a game, and if it is, the opposing side made a lot of bad calls.

What is this?! TWO K-BEASTS! ARE YOU MAD SIR?!

I predict many awesomeness with this list, may the beastly K's bring you many victories

An army with only a mere 60 bodies worth of models... Yes please, I would love to go against this in my next tournament As a goof and a chill just-for-fun game, sure, this could be fun. Dealing with this force, you don't look for combat, you use magic and shooting to deal with it. When the fighty un...

I used it once on my dark riders and got them a 2+ armor and ate some smaller infantry units without any losses. Fast Cav with 2+ is nasty.

With that list, I don't think anyone is even remotely surprized he won. Without comp, the game is quite boring and only Demons, Dark Elves and High Elves tend to win tournaments. WoC come high, but they struggle with many misshaps that may happen during the games due to HC and nasty things that may ...

imho the best lore in the game for dark elves. Many synergies with rest of the units and it combines hexes, buffs and damage spells so well. I love Dark.

To be honset with you, your new list looks worse than the previous because of the following reasons: You don't need this many witch elves in one unit. It is better to run then as 28, that will give you a horde of 4 in depth which is enough. The rest of the bodies are a waste of points that could ha...

Since you know your enemy, hexwraiths are no problem for doombolt. Two units of 5 warlocks or one unit with a dark magic sorc is enough to deal with them. 2D6 St5 and (X)D6 St1 twice every magic phace, you will most likely get two magic phaces before they see combat, so make them count. Another thin...

The problem with this list is not a lack of main blocks. I usually have one or two main blocks. The problem is that there is far too few things that can help you prevent charges, get in the way of the enemy and end up giving you a flank etc. You will get out manouvered and out played with this list ...

As many stated, that warlocks are our new "hydra", it is in fact an auto include for most players. Similar to that statement of the warlocks being our new hydra, if you remember the Shade deathstar from the olden days. With the general and BSB in the unit with your warlocks, this is our ne...

Don't forget luck stone, one use only but still 5 points, can save you a wound which is important too. Combined with Charmed Shield, this combo may save a cheap hunter two wounds in a dire situation and have him survive and deal some more damage. But generally, Dawn Stone is the item to look for whe...

Rare Medusas has seen a lot of play time in local tournaments. Current meta is 2 medusas and 2 bloodwrack shrines. This makes orc and ogre players cringe. First time I heard about playing medusas in tournies. Would be interested in reading more. A medusa is usually considered to be very difficult t...

I don't think spears should be completely discounted. Being able to fight in 3-4 ranks depending on if it's a horde or not, throw in PoD and you have up to 40 WS4 S4 attacks. Spears can form a nice solid defensive anchor in an otherwise aggressive army. I agree with this. Spears over sword/shield m...

and he hasn't even mentioned shades! We are blessed with some amazing special choces. If anything, hydras should be rare..have they become that common in Naggaroth ? Reapers in special is a good balance, think of how crazy any of your lists would be with ~200 more points in special I don't use shad...

My five cents on our new book after using it for cassual games, and in the tournament scene. Characters and magic items. Only viable use of cloak of twilight is on a mage, as soon as a character with cloak of twilight is in combat, they pop and die. Use it on a level 4 on dark peg with mr 1. 3++ vs ...

When you use green stuff, it is important that you mix all of it completely, so the whole thing has the same shade of green. Otherwise it will not set properly, and be uneven in concistense. This being said, you can easilly make her chest nurgle inspired with open wounds and blood leakage. That woul...
