Banner does work on magical attacks, but our arrows count as being magic weapons, which the banner does not work on.

I just want the monstous models to be smaller. And I still believe that a monster with a strength of five or toughness five needs to be smaller to refect that. I don't see why size is an issue. Should Dwarves be bigger then humans? They are tougher after all. What could stand some tweaking are cann...

The elves getting put together rubs me the wrong way though. Undead at least were an army at one point, they got broken up, and now are put back together again. Chaos were one army that got broken up, and now the opportunity arises for them to be put back together again. But elves? The elves have be...

Thanks!

We're doing a doubles tourney event this Saturday and then jumping to 2k points for the final 2 weeks.

Okay, 2 more games under the belt, the first was against Wood Elves (a mirror match) Lords Highweaver (Talisman of Preservation) Core 12 Glade Guard (Trueflight) 12 Glade Guard (Trueflight) Special 6 Wild Riders 3 Warhawk Riders 3 Warhawk Riders 10 Deepwood Scouts (Hagbane) Rare 10 Waywatchers Highw...

Luck was a huge part. Apart from the wounds on the Chimera, my dice failed me, and where they didn't fail me he was making his 4+ Armor Save on the Chariots. I only got 1 Turn to shoot at them before they were on me. If it had been battle for the pass I probably could have thinned it down more.

Bring back? I've been playing since 3rd edition and the WS To-Hit chart has not changed...

I would take High Magic for Nagash. Largely because Arcane Unforging will reduce Nagash to an overcosted monster. You Destroy his books and his Armor, and your army should be able to tear him to pieces, that's 2 castings of the spell.

So maybe Highweaver to replace the Treeman Ancient.

Even if they kill off every character in the fluff and said the world burns... that doesn't invalidate your army book. You will never go to play a game of Warhammer and have somebody go "No, that guy died in a story, you can't field him." Why are people getting so focused on characters dyi...

So, handful of more games at 1500. Sadly I only remembered to take a single picture. It's too easy to get caught up in the action. I first played against Vampire Counts. Lords Necromancer (Lv4, Dispel Scroll, Talisman of Preservation) Heroes Vampire (Lv2, Sword of Swift Slaying, Enchanted Shield, He...

What constitutes failing in combat? Only way I've seen characters 'fail' in combat is when they die... and that seems like a pretty big drawback. And Daemons are not that powerful, they are good, but everything is beatable. As to the scale, it's at the whim of the player. It can be 1:1 or it can be ...

They are just as evil, but it's not a rock and a hard place. Because once the two big evil forces clash, the pressure lessens for the forces of good. Imagine the Undead and forces of Chaos are Godzilla and Roldan. On their own, bad news for the world, but when they both show up they cause some colla...

The dead aren't the bad guy though. Chaos is. These battles are more like the skirmishes of armies that don't know what is going on. Think of it like the Battle of 5 Armies from the Hobbit. It's not until the big bad shows up that the independent squabbles get set aside. So in the next book when Cha...

will be really scary to those i play who dont posses cannons. How likely is that in your league? That is the big question. In my league we have 3 Dwarf Players, so flaming cannons abound, and I would say heavy treeman is a bad direction. But if cannons are more sparse, go for it. All in all, it loo...

frogboy wrote:Yeah go for it, her extra strength and toughness can easily be explained by magic. How will you get over the massive base size of Nagash, won't 54mm look a bit small on there ?

Perhaps, but that's what scenic base and dynamic effects are for!

I wouldn't say is better. Orion is a higher WS than Nagash (Ariel). Same attacks due to Frenzy. Orion has ASF. Nagash(Ariel) just ends up with Higher S, T, and can do D3 wounds. But also lacks the shooting that Orion has which can potentially fell anything in a shooting phase. Not to mention due to ...

I foresee Malekith dying, but him somehow redeeming himself in death. Like dying to save innocent Elves like the Hero he was considered to be in the past. And so he will drop out, but be remembered as a good guy in history. That way we get his redemption without having to deal with the idea that the...

Malekith confronts Bel Shanaar at the Shrine of Asuryan and depending upon who you talk to, the story diverges; These events are covered in Caledor though, book 3 of he sundering series, unless we say Black Library novels are exempt. That story states that the Phoenix Kings since Aenarion have all ...

This? http://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0034/6452/products/syl-iriah-heroic-paint-2-EN_large.jpg?v=1286412711 I am not fond of that model, it is TOO spirity for my tastes. I want something more evocative of the original miniature, but of better pose and if I'm putting it on a 100x150 it needs to be B...

In a couple weeks my local store is doing a Tournament that is allowing the End Times. Now I am not taking advantage of this fact, but I want readers to be aware that I may be facing lists that have 50% lords and the Lore of Undeath. Lords Treeman Ancient (lv4, Strangleroots) Highweaver (Lv4, Elven ...

It was not discussed beforehand, but the agreement the Escalation league came to by consensus through talking the various rules through is that on the Eagle they would use Gwindalor's T value of 4, but for the wounds, we decided they can't BOTH use his 3 wounds, so they were 2 T4 models with 2 Wound...

So today I played 3 Escalation games at 1500pts. My army is Lords Treeman Ancient (lv4) Heroes Naestra + Arahan (Gwindalor) Core 12 Glade Guard (Trueflight Arrows, Musician) 12 Glade Guard (Hagbane Arrows, Musician) Special 5 Wild Riders (Champ, Standard, Banner of Swiftness) 5 Deepwood Scouts (Hagb...

How about.. Lords Belakor - Daemons of Chaos Heroes Level 2 Mage (Dispel Scroll, Ring of Fury, High Magic, Elven Steed) - High Elves Core 18 Warriors of Chaos (Halberd, Shield, Mark of Khorne, Standard, Banner of Swiftness) - Warriors of Chaos 6 Ellyrion Reavers (Bows, Spears, Musician) - High Elves...

The Phoenix is actually pretty big, using it as an Eagle is going to be a very very GIANT eagle. Since you have to realize this... https://warosu.org/data/tg/img/0262/58/1374889757762.jpg is sitting on a chariot base. This is not to discourage anyone, just be warned that your Eagle is going to be en...

I have been less than impressed by Wardancers, though I really want to love them. I've found that my opponents either, remove them with a passing glance, or can often just avoid the slow moving infantry as they focus on more serious threats in my army. I suppose they might work well as a speed bump ...
