Speaking of mally, anyone noticed that his armor halves any wounds or mortal wounds he receives? Mortal wounds is obvious, but the way I read the core rules you do all hits, wounds and saves to see how much damage is done. With this wording, are you halving the wounds before saves, or the damage aft...

@fr0: in response to using 100 wounds, what would keep me from bringing say 4 of the incarnates, Malekith, Nagash, grim gore, and Karl franz say, and then filling whatever is left with vampire lords or some other such ridiculousness. I'd guess if you don't go with a similar build I would crush your ...

It seems that I am not the only person who sees how AOS is stupid, specifically the no points cost. Based on the sudden death victory conditions, if one side has one third models more than the other the they go to sudden death. So, here is how you break this game, if you go first put one really stup...

I know the tournament is over, but It figured I'd throw my experience in for the community at large. I have been mopping up my group with a 3000 pt eternity kings list. Here is the broad list: Malekith Hag on cauldron Whatever else you feel like for heroes. 10 silver helms 24 witch elves Whaever els...

I know the tournament is over, but It figured I'd throw my experience in for the community at large. I have been mopping up my group with a 3000 pt eternity kings list. Here is the broad list: Malekith Had on cauldron Whatever else you feel like for heroes. 10 silver helms 24 witch elves Whaever els...

That is an absolutely viable build, I just don't use it because the cold ones are not my main punch, but it a powerful build if you are wanting to go that way.

@ clockwork, I agree, I only field them in units of 10. So about 14 ( because of the dread lord) attacks usually rerolling to hit, and at s6 usually only failing to wnd on 1s so rerolling to wnd nets about 8 wnds depending on opponents save, then 10 s4 attacks from the cold ones is good for another ...

So here is my 2 cents No plan survives contact, so I like to build adaptability, resiliency, endurance into my lists. I find that COK are great as a second, more maneuverable can opener. Allow me to explain, I run a horde of WE with cauldron, and a horde of (sometimes frenzied) executioners. Now the...

I was under the impression that the core FAQ had ruled that if you have conflicting rerolls, for instance reroll ward saves and OTS, they canceled each other out. My concern would be that the chaos player would argue that since the OTS turned off the reroll of 1s that it would then be spent and not ...

so this came up the other day: what happens when you make a tzinch lord take a ward save and you have a the OTS. The lord normally has a 3++ and re rolls ward saves of 1. So does he loose the refill of ones and has to still reroll any 3+ he makes, or does he not reroll the 3+ and just loose the rero...

So, in an attempt to stir conversation, I would like to point out something I noticed with this last end times release. The new blight kings are clearly on ogre bases, which should make them monstrous infantry. However, I have the new glotkin release, and the troop type for them is simply infantry, ...

I'm not sure what the mm size is exactly, but I know that the base is the same one the terrorgeist and zombie dragon are on.

Ok so I just had a 3000 pt game using Nagash vs tomb kings and will post some sort of battle report soon but wanted to give you my thoughts on Nagash post game. Let me say first that I tabled my opponent, we'll not quite, he had one unit of 20 archers with a lv1 and prince left and the casket at the...

I am a druchii player and an VC player, and as such I have a few predictions that I think the community should be prepped for as it relates to Nagash. The biggest problems that I can see is that his large cost will be quickly offset with the discussing amounts of troops he will be able to bring. Btw...

I had my game with WoC today, and I decided to follow Dalamar's advice and kept the executioners as a can opener. I will post the full battle report In the right section, however I will say that I tabled him at the bottom of turn 5. I will also say that hellebron and the 438 pts of executioners did ...

Thanks for the replies, allow me to answer the questions you guys posed: My list is a lv4 and hellebron for lords, hellebron will go into the unit we are discussing. Heroes is a cauldron death hag rune of khaine, and a master bsb on cold one, kitted pretty standard 1+ as and ring of hotec Core is 15...

So I'm looking to squeeze the most out of every point I have. To that end, in my 3000 pt list I have a unit of 34 executioners in horde with full command clocking in at 438 pts. I was toying with the idea of instead running a unit of 20 black guard 7 wide with the razor banner which would be about 1...

Ahh, I apologize for the over site on the bsb, the master on the cold one is the bsb for stupidity checks. As for chaff, I figured I had enough with the dark riders, shades, and locks. I should have plenty of shooting so I can clear his chaff, and the intent of the big blocks is to be the scariest t...

So as for which lore is best I have to agree with Dalamar, dark is amazing. Word of pain makes daemon princes manageable, dragons and chaos and vampires impotent, and bladewind is particularly nasty against hordes or weak stuff, I hit 40 brettonian peasants with halberds I think with it, without wop...

Has anyone thought of this, a level 4 SS with dark and the book of asur, for + 6 to cast dark magic. I almost never give my lv 4 anything but a dispel scroll so it might make for a strong caster

Sorry for the poor original post, I had my 11 month old competing for my attention. I'd like to elaborate on the options I was considering. Option 1: Keeping hellebron, and losing the lv 2, with a lv 4 and warlocks I have enough magic, and hellebron will help keep magic off the executioners and afte...

Hello fellow druchii, I have been revising my list and have a few options I'm considering and thought I'd get everyone's opinion. I'll list the list list as is, which is 150 pts over, and then explain what I'm thinking for options. Lds: Hellebron, Lv 4 SS naked (probably dark or metal, depending on ...

I usually run my witches with cauldron and Mvmt banner and my cold ones with razor banner. I have had mixed results. How big a deal was it having the extra 1 Mvmt on the knights? Did it make that big a difference? I have been eyeing switching the banners to make the witches more lethal, but since th...

Somi just played a brawler bash style tournament today. For those who don't know, this type of tournament is scored using only the points you kill, so if you table your opponent you get 3000 pts, but if you kill each other to the man and in the last round of close combat you simultaneously kill each...

Ok, thanks for all the advice, here is the revised list with one last question at the end: Lv4 SS dark, scroll Hag, cry war, cob Tullaris Peg master with cloak of twilight 15 RXBs with mus, standard and flaming banner 10 RXBs mus 24 we full command, bann of swiftness 5 dark riders full upgrades 34 e...
