mantic forrest shambler models , any one seen then ?
so I was poking around mantics site , and noticed the forest shambler models , which would make great treekin or 9th age thicket beasts . The price is good , but i would have to order them in sight unseen as my local gaming store does not stock kings of war stuff. http://www.manticgames.com/mantic-s...

Mage on a unicorn in 9th
so I have always liked the idea of a mage on a unicorn but there has always been 2 problems , 1 in 8th a mage on a unicorn could not get protection from LOS and was thus a sitting duck , 2 a mage on a unicorn was not a model that was easy to find . now in 9th age a mage on a unicorn can join a group...

Re: Any more Asrai left in these woods?
I am waiting to see what 9th age brings , I think once that gets firmly established and people accept it as the standard rules set for fantasy things will pick up . there is alot to like about it , but it is a little unrefined at the moment . there background and fluff needs to be flushed out more b...

Re: ETC Openhammer
I've registered and plan on discussing some of the changes. Lots of good things and then some bad ones too. Here are some of the changes to WEs: Treekin S5 Dryads can skirmish for free Ambush is optional And then there are a few I don't agree with but might be ok when joined together with the other...

Re: "Age of Sigmar" speculations
the one hope i have in this is the whole free rules thing . maybe they will release 8th as an open gamming lisence to allow it to exist , now that they are not supporting it , or even put it up for free on there site .
that would keep their old customers happy and still allow them to support AOS

Re: HELP NEEDED Foot Based List-Theory Hammer b4 the Actual
so is the goal to not use any cavalry ? or just not max out on it ? There is a big difference , and do flying units count as Cav for the purposes of this list ? a unit or 2 of eternal guard as an anvil unit parked in a wood should be good . then for the hammer ; wild riders or if you don't want any ...

Re: Breaking the social contract

I think the main problem he is running into is that most wood elf players will be veteran players very familiar with the shoot and ...

Re: A rant against comp
I am going to take the opposite view and advocate in favor of comp . Further I am going to go so far as to say that I think GW should release an official comp adjustment every year , call it something fluffy like the tide of battle . It would keep armies from getting stale , and i think keep players...

a flock of eagles ?
so the great eagle stayed essentially the same as in the last book with one change . unit size 1+ we can now take a hoard of 18 great eagles or more . it would be expensive but would be something to consider . with fly the march of 20 inches , jumping over obstacles , you could with little difficult...

Re: Are we still an MSU army ?
interesting points , I had not considered them before . buffs on large blocks are more efficient , and the extra bows in the 1st turn or 2 could be critical .

Ok so i have the book , and i think it is awesome , I can't wait to try it out on the table top . I do have a few questions or observations , these come from reading the responses to the new book and the changes to it .

Re: Does the new Dwarf book make you worry for Wood Elves?
I can't see any data slate add ons. I'm pretty sure any 40k slates haven't involved new models. Even GW wouldn't expect us to carry around an army book and a bundle of extra rules on top. Wasn't that lawsuit ages ago? Sorry I'm sketchy on the details. I have no inside knowledge just personal opinio...

Re: Does the new Dwarf book make you worry for Wood Elves?
I think we will be fine , i think you need to view the new dwarf book as being the 2nd new codex released post lawsuit . as you may or not be aware GW lost a lawsuit against some 3rd party bits manufacturer . essentially what happened was that they were told tit you don't have a model for a unit or ...

i would not put a lot of stock in that rumor .

Re: Wood Elves rumours
Dwarves and wood elves make sense , they may get a bump from the new hobbit movie , the wood elves in the movie are very similar to our wood elves , . I remember watching it thinking , i have to go home and paint my wood elves .
