Re: End of Times Elven Legions
I can see Kornous being buddies with Khaine, random slaughter doesn't bother Kornous that much. Dude, after a hard days godding, listening to prayers, answering some in interesting and unexpected ways, and so on, Khaine and Kurnous hit the bar of the gods. Inevitably, they pick up the same millenni...

I thought you would only make a single Ward save and then roll a D3 per pg 45 but the item description does refer to "no armour saves" in the plural.

Re: Competitively speaking, which Treeman?
Personally, I love double Treeman Rare with Strangleroots. I still run 2 eagles and a unit of 5 waywatchers with them at 2800. Like all monsters, it's better when you take two. If keeping them alive is your focus, Lore of Life is awesome because you can cast Regrowth on them AND have them benefit fr...

Re: Help! Need new tactics!
Tomb Kings is still Tomb Kings. The fact that he never committed Arkhan to battle, nor his hierotitan might be saying something. Also, the fact that he didn't raise harder units like blood knights or other characters, probably adds to it. Imagine your opponent raising 500 points of blood knights and...

Re: Help! Need new tactics!
Well, after a few days of reflection post battle vs an Arkhan-led Tomb Kings army, I have decided that the End Times book is ridiculous. My opponent was raising 500ish points a turn, and I was barely able to keep up. Tactics-wise, I did really well, as well as a good, strong deployment phase. I used...

Awesome. Some great ideas, guys. Thanks! How do you guys usually deploy? Where do you place forests? For me, I'm putting all my Glade Guard in two rows, so I don't need them inside forests to take advantage of the shoot in three ranks, so I have more freedom for their deployment. I generally place f...

Okay, so I consider myself a pretty good general. I've studied war strategies and unit tactics. I've studied forums. I've put them to use in Warhammer games to great effect. I can't, for the life of me, figure out how to play Wood Elves as effectively as I do with my High Elves. I can win almost eve...

Re: On Wardancers - Experiences and tactical advice; Yay or
Templates and MM/DD spells are bad for wardancers. They will usually take out a whole unit at a time. Fortunately, they are only 75 for 5, so I'd rather have them be targeted than my other units. I like to park them about an inch or two within a venom thicket in a line 5 wide, and form a 'front line...

Re: All Forest Spirit Army Tactics
Bro. You need to read the rules. Strangleroots is Multiple Shots (D6+1). An average roll of a D6 is 3.5. 3.5 + 1 = 4.5 Second, I know that the BS is paltry at 4. Usually you'd be hitting on 5's if not 6's. I didn't say it was the best. I didn't say you should ALWAYS have it. I'm just saying you shou...

Re: All Forest Spirit Army Tactics
I definitely see the benefit of having Strangleroots. First of all, it's a 20 pt investment with an average of 4.5 S5 shots. Second, you shouldn't be putting your TA in harms way to begin with, so Stand-&-Shoot should not be the sole factor in deciding whether or not it is useful. If your TA is ...

Multiple shots doesn't stack. He either gets 2 shots or 2 anti armor shots. That said, I don't take it as mages don't wear armor So you don't have any WoC, Ogres, Vamps, or Empire players where you're at? The first three are some of the more populous in my current meta. My problem is that they usua...

That's all fine and dandy but two things suck in this scenario.

And two, your deathstar unit with Savage Beasts is going to get Eagle after Eagle parked in fr...
