Re: Athel Loren needs help vs the Empire!

My bad advice: Ignore armor Sword (50 points). With Lore of beasts, will kill all knights and Stank. Very dangerous for Empire Characters to come into contact with. -> Also, submachine Gun. Only 4 shots, but he gets to be in a unit. Beasts is necessary (Sword, Machine Gun, Submachine gun) to make hi...

Re: So let's talk about Eternal Guards...

I no expert, but I've taken up the Obsidian Blade (no AS sword) on my highborn to replace his submachine gun for better defense (Armor of Destiny, or Talisman and Enchanted Shield, or Glitter armor and Fumblewinter Shard). If he causes 2 wounds (or more with Beast Weaver) they can hold the Monstrous...

Re: Way watchers and the Scout Kindred

Put the Scout noble in a Way Watcher unit. The unit has the debuff to BS shooting, so it protects the character too. Use the sniper to take out unit champs so a dragon/ancient doesn't get challenged to death. An alternative is giving the scout the Hail of Doom Arrow. On small units, its almost like ...

Re: How to Use Eternal Guard

Ok, you win I will admit my wrong assumption.

Re: Viability of the Rhymers Harp highborn

Once again, I humbly disagree: Wood elves are too expensive. I find to stay competitive you have to go line by line and cut any fat. We don't have the luxury of excessive spending on lavish things to make wood elf "killy" lords, only enough to do a job we bought them for. Other armies wil...

They had an army book in 5th edition (even if it was just a collection of WD articles), and a full line available in GW stores. They have had models (and rules) in the game dating back to the early 80s. What makes them 'not real'? They aren't on the Games Workshop website. I was vaguely aware of a ...

Statistically, Glitter Armor gives a better long term defense than the Annoyance of Nettlings (not everyone has champions/accepts challenges). On the highborn, most infantry (all WS3 or lower) will only hit him on 6's. Anything feared by the charge will also only hit on 6's. Did you know that most O...
