How's this looking for a changette going to run her as a Herald of Tzeentch on Disc? Wanted to go for a less scantly-clad barbarian furryslut look than normal and I think that worked out fairly well.
Rose in her hair is going to be replaced by a tiny mark of Tzeentch.
Might sculpt some bird claws in place of the boots and I'm not sure if I should lose the ruffled collar or add ruffles elsewhere on the mini.

The plan is to put all castellant buffs on the stardrake to give him +3 save and healing 3 wounds every time he rolls a 4+ to save. Mirrorshield and Relictor prayer help ensure stardrake survives focus fire. Even with Rend-3 the Stardrake still has a 3+ save that rerolls 1s.

Stardrake tries to engage the entire enemy army while virtually immune to regular combat damage. The concussors flank and raptors shoot key targets like buff heroes and wizards or anything that can deal mortal wounds to the stardrake.

I'm thinking a 4th Castellant might be the way to go instead of the Relictor.

Why are darkelves in grand alliance Order?

>>52137244
Unless your local store plays that point value alot, you wont see many games. 1000 or 2000 for those strictly using the book since those are what tournaments use. If you do find a 2500 game, its cause some tourney decided they wanted a 4 hr match per round.

>>52137405
Oh okay.

>>52137382
Congrats you've made a no fun list. He is still capable to getting mortal wound sniped. Skyre would remove him pretty handily with 6 stormfiends. Tzeentch could throw enough spells at him just to hurt him enough, and skyfyres could also lay some hurt into him.
Order wise, a hurricannum can do some damage to him.
Destruction wise, i think it won't die to him, unless you fight some spiderfang grots with momma spider who could get a 4+ do d6 mortal wounds.
Death... just trying to kill everything would be annoying enough. Again it's a bodies thing. A horde of zombies could attempt to tie up the stardrake for a long time.

>>52137451
Trust me, I feel ya though. I own roughly 3k points of destruction and I will never get to field it outside of a few games, and the only opponents that I know who can field that might, are sylvaneth players who are my worst match up due to their ability to modify saves and not awful range or melee.

Ok guys, I will be keeping this updated as they come along. Is there anything you can think of that I missed?

These are specifically the rumour engine teasers

>>52137475
Tzeentch.

>>52137531

Are chaos warriors, knights, etc. decent as tzeentch? I bought the Getting Started box set

>>52137543
They can take the tzeentch keyword and become tzeentch, providing synergy with that stuff in the disciples of tzeentch book

>>52137543
Tzeentch is stronger with its unique units, with the Slaves to Darkness stuff the playing field is a lot more even.

>>52137581

Can't I just take both? Or should I take Tzeentch unique stuff for some formation?

>reddit rats

>>52137615
Stop bullying Skaven.

>>52137581

Do chaos warriors with the Tzeentch keyword count as having Allegiance to Tzeentch?

>>52137961
They can take it, yes.

They obviously can't take Tzeentch and Slaves to Darkness allegiance, though.

I don't get this allegiance thing.

Can anyone explain?

>>52138070
When armybuilding, you get to take one Allegiance that corresponds to the build of your army.

Say I have an army of Bonesplittas. I can choose to either have them take Bonsplitta allegiance, or have them take Destruction allegiance. This gives them a selection of special abilities and items corresponding to their Allegiance.

>>52138070
It's easy. Let's say you want to build a nice mixed chaos army. You can use both skaven and slaves to darkness in one list because they all have chaos keyword. On the other hand you can't run stormcast + ironjawz army because first have order keyword and orruks have destruction keyword instead

>>52137079
What parts did you use for that? looks neat

>>52138070
Makes way more sense when you start looking at how stuff works in AoS using the keyword system.

>>52138135
>>52138141
Alright.

I want to start an FEC army and use Death Allegiance stuff for CTs and Artefacts.
Is my army now marked as Death and I can't use any FEC abilites anymore?

>>52138440
FEC can use both, but Death can't use FEC stuff.

Depends on the edition. Wood Elves were everywhere when they got their 6th edition Army Book. Then in 7th edition there was a time of Daemons of Chaos, then Vampire Counts and Dark Elves got their OP books. Also Ogre Kingdoms became pretty popular. Also Dwarfs were always popular because they were Dwarfs. But you might be right about the most popular one at the end of 8th edition.

>>52138440
If you use only FEC units you can use both death and FEC

>>52137530
I'd said that those unknown pictures are Death and Duardin.

>>52138852
I'm sure, I am just only putting up there what's been confirmed on release. I'm not doing assumptions or rumors.

>>52136805
Never probably, and I say this as an elf fag. Pretty sure they're all going to be progressively phased out in favor of Sylvaneth-equivalents.

I don't think the old elf armies will actively be shunned, but I don't see them getting any notable support.

That said, I won't say it's impossible. Normal elves have had some minor spotlight, such as the characters in Warhammer Quest and the Scourge Privateers making an appearance in City of Secrets. Plus, Bonesplitterz got their own battletome.

If they do release battletomes for the OG elves, they'll probably have to recombine and redesign some of their rules, since the synergy and unit count for most of them are absolute shit. Probably bring back the high/dark/wood elf umbrellas with new names, such as the initial compendium categories of highborne/exiles/wanderers.

>>52138230
Head, body, upper arms, and right hand are from the Coven Throne.
Forearms and staff are from Witch Aelves.
Legs and magical swirls from the IoB/SoD Aelf Archmage.

Reposting because not wanting to show off, but just coming to the conclusion of feedback from last thread and wanna make sure I've got the list right on things I need to improve on for the next mini.

>Be cleaner and use thinner layers of paint
>Don't let wash bunch up on shield and shoulders because it looks too messy
>Lighten up on wash on weapon in particular, as it looks too messy

>Be cleaner on gems

Any other things I missed? I'm genuinely trying to make sure I improve with each one. This guy will obviously be in the back regiments lol.

nope. pic related


And nothing else has been confirmed. We have yet to see the releases for the unlabeled teaser images.

>>52139196
>first one is Custodes vent form Burning of Prospero
im pretty sure the custodes were already released before they started the rumour engine teasers. and it clearly has a dwarf ancestors symbol on the original image, that one has been cropped for some reason
>no idea about spear
the spear and the coil thingy definitely look related
>gate looks like a token for board game
or a vehicle or piece of terrain. i don't understand why you think it's a board piece
>coil/engine thing looks orky (40k)
too clean. its either 40k or rumored dwarfs
>tombstone mite be either scenic base, token for board game or it could be part of big undead abomination
probably. im guessing stuff for undead in bloodbowl
>next thing looks like back of blood bowl player
i can see that, but not sure which right now
>bloodthirster vs no freakin idea, it's supoosed to be lookin in each-other faces, but it could be only shield/weapon/scenery
its been discussed a lot and pretty majorly agreed to be related to the first one because there is a ancestral dwarf symbol on it
>last one could be either part of board for another warhammer quest or blood bowl pitch
if they are doing an undead team for BB, i could see it being part of the pitch

>>52139196
> or blood bowl pitch
I hadn't even thought about that, I bloody hope not. It'd be nice for AoS to get some real acknowledgement, we've got some nice new releases but it feels like we've really been on the backburner

>>52139768
desu I'm not seeing anything dwarf-related in any parts you mentioned there. Those vents and that thaing that is fighting bloodthirster is not even close to models form dwarf range (like gyrocopters)
>inb4 another (3rd or 4th including fyreslyers) subfaction of dwarfs with whole new line of models
I would not put my hope in something like that

>>52139294
Yeah sounds about right. The level of wash you've done on the armor is a good shade wash if you do another layer or so of metal over it,leaving most of it in the recesses. Though I'd recommend a darker wash if you'd go that route. Keep at it though!

General extremis armor skew list tips


You'll find objectives a little difficult with such small model count

Dracothian guard are the real heroes of extremis, the star Drake is awesome but he's a distraction carnifex + artillery combo who can eat sergeants

The issue is that he doesn't really clear units, you need fulminators or more cuncussors to do that. The real issue with your list is that two cuncussors + 2 units of raptors won't kill enough.

You've got the tarpit, but not enough of a hammer.

Since I post it so often, I wonder if I should be a namefag?

I am a fan of AOS and WHFB.

Would you want to see GW throw WHFB folks a bone.

How would you want it to be done? Not gameplay wise but just lore wise?

My idea: Have random pocket dimensions of old world shit that in the explosion of the old world shattered off and froze separated from time/space only to be accessed by realm gates.

Maybe do a boardgame about exploring and salvaging shit from them.

>>52137469
Shielded by Faith gives the drake a 5+ ignore MW.

With a 5+ save against mortal wounds and good healing output it's not very likely to do 16 wounds to the drake in a single turn.

Stormfiends are a problem but the stardrake can easily outmaneuver them, even with Sayl buffing them, until the raptors can wear them down and get them low enough for the stardrake to finish them off.

>>52140204
>Would you want to see GW throw WHFB folks a bone.
They did. It's called total war: warhammer

>>52139984
So you mean I should go over it again with another layer of retributor armor and avoid the recesses where the wash is?

New to the game and here's my first attempt at writing a list, it's essentially based on what what models I thought looked nice, is it workable or in need of some serious revisions?

I think a Battles in the Old World supplement would be pretty good but lore wise I would be fine with a gate being found to another version of the old world.

Parallel worlds in WHFB are a long tradition anyway, with planescape going on in AoS it doesn't seem like a stretch at all.

>>52140232

Hey I'm that extremis player that gave some tips earlier: skaven are absolutely capable of melting your celestant with mortal wounds but you've got the tools to stop them before they ever get the chance (star drake meteors, raptors, judicator primes)


The stardrakes fun, I love him, but he's the party tank not the dps. Let your opponent think he's the big fucking deal when in reality it's your dracothian guard

>>52140172
Candle, good call.
I was thinking of shaving some of the details off the tabard and replacing it with the twin tailed comet talisman from the flagellants kit, But I'm not sure how sigmary i want her to be yet.Need to mess around abit.

I like to spread myself around...Like herpes.

>>52140204
There are little bits of the old world here and there. Mordheim apparently just warps in and out of the realms in different places, The flesh eater courts believe that they're bretonnians, And kislev is in the realm of beasts being rules by an ice queen.

>>52140338

Don't forget that the entirety of east Asia including the land of qin, ind and nihon exists in the realm of fire

>>52140338
Where can I read more about this?

>>52140235
Yeah. It's a bit harder with the large ammount of flat areas on it, But it think it's a good idea. THough i'd recommend a brown was for the next one, like reikland fleshshade or Agrax earthsahde. But give it a try. Can't hurt!
For highlighting i'd recomment something like Liberator armor and stormhost silver, but that's something we can discuss later.

>>52140367
It's all spread around the campaign books and novels. I barely read them but I do get told them by customers and by other staff who do read all the new releases. I'm pretty sure alot of it is in godbeasts or the novels accompanying it.

>>52140369
Currently, as is, it's got a wash of Biel-Tan green, then on the metal areas, highlights of Auric Armor and finally Liberator. Then I put a glaze of Waywatcher green on the whole thing to make it a bit of a brighter tint. The goal is to make the thing have that greenish tint. If I do the Agrax Earthshade/Reikland fleshshade, would I still be able to make the thing green overall?

>>52140355
Did not know this. cool.

(And then the fire nation attacked..And got raped by chaos.)

>>52140420
No using reikland or any other brown was if your goal is to give it a green tint is probably not going to work.
If you do a waywatcher green tint over the whole armor, i'd recommend thinning it, like 50/50 but maybe even something like 75/25 with lhamean medium as the primary thinning agent (Or glaze medium, or whatever medium-like you can get your hand on) Because currently it's a bit too thick and covers your highlight work, which sounds to me to be proper.

>>52137382

Here's my take on your intention with your list

Units
2 x Fulminators (240)
4 x Concussors (560)

Total: 1960/2000

You really don't need 4 castellants, 2 is fantastic and more than sufficient. 6 dracothians will fucking decimate whatever they hit and that list is surprisingly shooty

>>52133859
>Worded that they stack, I think from memory one is for wounds the other is for slain?

>Deathless Minions: "Roll a dice for each WOUND OR MORTAL WOUND inflicted on a Death unit from your army that is within 10" of your general or another Hero in your army."
>Wight King's Infernal Standard: "Roll a dice each time a Death model from your army is SLAIN within 9" of an Infernal Standard."

Oh yeah, that seems to be the case. So, Deathless Minions is basically a second Save, whereas the Infernal Standard is more like the Necrons' old Resurrection Protocols special rule. Thanks, anon.

>>52140469
Gotcha, so keep doing what I'm doing but thin the waywatcher green to those amounts and I should be good?

>>52140485
I think you need at least 3 castellants because Rend reduces your save roll, which counteracts the bonus to the save roll, which means rolling a 7+ is harder to do

If the enemy has Rend-1 you only heal on a roll of 6, and with Rend-2 it's impossible to heal in combat

>>52140204
Partly this >>52140234 which is a great adaptation of WHFB.

But I also like this >>52140309
>I think a Battles in the Old World supplement would be pretty good but lore wise I would be fine with a gate being found to another version of the old world.
Especially since I don't think full-on planets have been dismissed as existing in the Mortal Realms.

>>52140532
I must admit that i've never tried tinting, but i think it might help, since at the moment I think it's a bit too powerful.

If it doesn't work out you're more than welcome to blame me, though!

>>52140572
or rather; never tried tinting metals.

>>52140543

I see what you're getting at, but remember they FAQ'd it so that the castellants buff only heals wounds you've already taken (you heal all your 7+'s and then take all your wounds, in that order)

On the other hand the real benefit of castellants is that they're a GUARANTEED and unbind-proof arcane shield caddy that also stacks plus comes on a beefy hero for the same cost as most wizards.

A star Drake with a 1+ save rerolling 1's will be essentially immune to shooting and can tank -2 rend very easily.

Doing a Tzeentch allegiance army, are Chosen or Knights better for Tzeem?

>>52141158
Honestly, I'm not a big fan of chaos knights in general. I feel they need a lord on demonic mount to really work.

Tzeentch has enough options without them. But they wont be any worse in Tzeentch if you run them with a demonic mounted lord, than if they were in Slaves to darkness, they'll just be competing with better units.

What are people thoughts on 500 point games? I have found the game to scale really bloody well but i always prefer smaller games. I want something between hinterlands and full 1500 that I can play some light fluffy battles with but haven't tried 500 yet.

>>52141664
Have you tried 1000 point games?

>>52141783
Yeah, This isn't about me asking for the best size, I just wanna know if anyone has had any issues with running games at 500.

>>52141825
Some combos are really overpowered, usually defensive combos like dracoths + castellant

Theres just not enough damage available to punch through regular saves

500 point games are fine for casual games but you wont be able to do anything even mildly competitive at that size. If you have competitive players (or anyone that actively seeks out crazy combos) then I suggest avoiding this size game

>>52141886
I'm about as competitive as a grapefruit and make a point of playing in friendly circles.

>>52141825
> I just wanna know if anyone has had any issues with running games at 500
Well, not really. It's just Start Collecting: The format

>>52141664
I've thought about them myself. Figured if I ever ran a narrative campaign set at 500 points, I'd cut the Battleline minimum to 1, heroes to 1-2, and no Behemoths or Artillery (although good luck fitting them anyway, but just in case).

Was thinking about maybe doing that after my Hinterlands campaign, as a sort of minor escalation.

A semi-related question, if I made the lord on daemonic mount the army general and took the Arch-Sorcerer trait, does he gain the ability to cast the spells generated for him, or does that not work?

>>52142350
It wouldn't work i think. Since while he gets a spell he still can't cast it

>>52140570
please for the love of Sigmar no more fucking space marines

>>52142516
its gonna be space marines, not more sigmarines, but the rumored 40k space marine space marines

Makes sense.

Although now that I think about it there isn't a lot of reason to go Daemonic Mount Lord and Knights when I could just take more daemons and birds...

Bold choice, going red skin. If I were you I'd look at painted Khorne Daemons to get an idea how to highlight the red skin. I think yours could use another highlight.

I also would say the metal is a little too clean too.

Did any of you get Shadows over Hammerhal ?
We had lots of fun playing Silver Tower with friends and I'm curious about the mechanical changes (mainly the GM addition).

>>52144185
OK so a highlight on the skin, and dirtier metal, would drybrushing a light brown or similar dark colour work with that mabye? I tried agrax on it but didn't like the look of it, I have some evil sunz scarlet to highlight with, as soon as I saw ironjawz I was thinking red skin and steel armour haha

This thread needs less shitposting and more of Papa Nurgle's love.

>You guys like my converted Plague Lord?

I count the huge tumor as a Crown of Command and plan on placing a Nurgling on his back like a mini version of the Glottkin.

I'm debating adding one more highlight to the flesh before I paint the buboes. What say you /aosg/?

>>52144267

Don't dry brush it man I guarantee you won't like it. Try washing it with brown ink or black ink or both, then re-highlight the edges with silver like it's scratched and chipped.

The evil suns scarlet might do it for you! I've also seen macharius orange used as a highlight on red flesh, on the highest edges. But that could be hit or miss I think.

Thanks anon. I started with Bugman's Glow, layered on Cadian Fleshtone, then a layer of Rakarth Flesh.

The tumor I cut off of an extra Ethrac Glott I ordered from my favorite bits store. I turned it upside down and backwards and sculpted green stuff buboes to hide the seam.

The big sword is from the 40K Nurgle Daemon Prince model. It's one of my favorites too.

I'm so fucking tiered of these fucking teasers. Why the fuck do people put up with this shit?

>>52146536
I like them, builds hype.

>>52146570
Why is hype good? Because it dupes you into buying shit you otherwise wouldn't want? Because if you want to cuck yourself that hard you can just by KOW models and stick them on rounds. It's better value.

>>52144422
When I have issues painting, I consult Duncan videos.
If it's still not right I ask the FLGS painting gurus.
Why ask for ANYTHING on a site like this? I think one can know what to expect in return. It's the law of the jungle

>>52144422
And for the record, I compliment a LOT of the stuff I see here on aosg as well as hhg that looks GOOD. Good work deserves praise. Garbage deserves to be told it's garbage. I'm tired of the everyone gets a trophy, don't invade mah safe space, bullshit.

>>52146790
>>52146766
So what I get from you is that you can't paint, so you feel like putting other people down to feel better, since if you COULD paint, you could give a bit of criticism or advice along with telling someone something is garbage.

Just because you CAN be an edgy cunt who follows the "law of the jungle" on the internet because of your anonymity, it doesn't mean you should.

>>52146697
I would except I don't like shitty models.

>>52146766
>>52146790
By all means, tell him it's garbage. But give constructive criticism as well. Otherwise you're just being an unhelpful piece of shit. You want him to stop posting shitty models? Tell him how to get better so he can post good ones.

>>52147071
If you dont want your shit paint job critiqued then dont post it online

Nobody is entitled to constructive criticism, and nobody should be forced to be constructive.

>>52146697
>Why is hype good?
I like it because if I know something is coming that is in line with my interests, I can prepare or budget for it. It's more convenient for me than anything.
>Because it dupes you into buying shit you otherwise wouldn't want?
Whoa! Pretentious alert! I suppose we are all just cogs in the corporate machine, brainwashed into being controlled by the evil corporations with no independent thoughts of our own. Thank you for being there to guide us into the light!
>Because if you want to cuck yourself that hard you can just by KOW models and stick them on rounds. It's better value.
Not really. KoW models range from "pretty decent average looking vanilla minis" to "really embarrassing sculpts". It's like they are deliberately trying to be as vanilla and average as possible. I am just not impressed by any of their fantasy range at all. Nothing drives me to buy them because nothing sticks out to me. Of course that's the subliminal manipulation talking.

>>52147208
You see, you are holding onto a flawed strawman argument.

What you see, is us making the case that we should only ever complement work, whether or not it is warranted. And that we believe it is wrong to criticize.

When this is false. We encourage others to improve, we note improvements from previous efforts, and we also let people know when it is not good enough and could use improvement. You can do this without being a dick.

>>52147385
Nobody is ENTITLED to constructive criticism. If you post stuff on the internet then you should expect a people to be dicks. The internet is not your little safe space hugbox where people only say constructive criticism

>10 Black Knights
>5 Black Knights
>20 Skellingtons with banner, spears, shields
>20 Skellingtons with banner, spears, shields

Is this shit yes/no? I figure I could have more Skellingtons if I drop a spooky dead mage dude but on the other hand I can just keep bringing dead ones back this way and so long as the two heroes are near they'll be dead killy (ba dum tsh). The spooky horse bros are for flanking and mulching infantry and the stupid bats are just to distract or harass shit.

How do I combine Beastmen and Skaven, /tg/?

I can't pick between them so I want to have both.

>>52145706

Zombie and Plaguebearer bits are the obvious choice. The plaguebearer box also contains some nurglings, so it's a great buy for nurgle conversions. Also a green paintjob can be enough. Maybe look into to old hordes of chaos army book for inspiraton, it should be in the /whfbg/ op

>>52152911
Not playing a horde army is a generally good remedy for that issue.

I had considered some of those, I think the issue is that he looks quite noble and statuesque in comparison to the bloat and gore associated with Papa Nurgle.

Shit, I don't want to pay £35 for 16 skeletons when I can get 10 vamp counts ones from Dark sphere for £11.62.

I assume bits sellers still sell Khemrian shields though? Research time I think.

>>52155606
Dont listen to these tasteless plebs who say to color it
Leave it shadowy with grey or silver highlights
Kind of like this anons bark >>52145706

>>52156215
Self-reply, no luck there.

However, I think I will buy a load of shields from lots of other armies to represent the is of cultures my skeletons have been raised from.

Good idea? Or would it look horribly messy?

There is a lot of undead bretonnia out there to give you an idea how they look.

Agree with this. Very dark with purple edge highlights could be cool. Or go red if you want it to match the rest of the model. Dark but highlighted up to orange. Kinda like these swords.

Here's a second pic of something that could work. Dark ghostly things. Pick whatever color you think is best. But dark is definitely cool.

Can someone scan it?

Magical Samurai faction when?

>>52144791
This.
All I want is Malerion and some edgy fantasy (A)elfs. Also a story about how they kept out Archaon out of Ulgu.

Shadow Aelfs fucking when?

We FEC lead a hard life, but we do it all for honor.
>New Battletome changes and FAQ shortly after our release.

Hope they update us before GHB 3.0

>>52144102
I love it when people go for different skin colors. I painted my Orks blue, and am considering going either charcoal or red for my Ironjawz.

Could use more highlighting and wear 'n' tear on the armor, though.

>>52149018
How do you unironically dislike the Warchanter?

>>52144274
one of the best conversions of this model I have seen. And there have been many. Many.

>>52157770
It's a common model to convert. It's cheap, and easy to work with. And yeah that is a very good conversion.

I got the model so I could use it as the unit champion for my blightkings. I did this to keep my blightkings to 5 models because I needed one of them for my harbinger of decay conversion.

When the weather warms up around here, I will be getting some paint on these guys soon.

>>52157867
Nice, now get that shit painted and work a little harder to disguise the square bases.

To the man who told me to do Mortal Nurgle, thank you. I've had a ton of fun playing with Slaves to Darkness with the nurgle keyword, and painting them has been a dream. My only query is, should I get another slaves to darkness box or should I get a blightkings box?

>>52158014
I think you'll want blight kings, considering how much they do for the army with their aoe heal/damage.
Plus their models look so good.

>>52158014
Blightkings.

They look great and perform fantastically on the table.

>>52158008
Yeah when the weather finally warms up a little more I'll be able to prime my dudes then get some paints slapped on them. I planned on putting some sand and grime on the square bases because it was meant to look like ruined steps. However I am going to go a different direction with the basing theme instead of ruins and swamps i was originally planning.

>>52158014
Blightkings, definitely. It's a wonderful kit with so many wonderful extra parts. Parts you will use to nurglefy any future slaves to darkness kits you will purchase. Buy 2 if you can afford it. You can easily make 10 unique looking blightkings with 2 kits.

To me, the blightkings is the best kit to come out of End Times

>>52158417
>To me, the blightkings is the best kit to come out of End Times
me again, and the stormfiends is a very close second. Blightkings wins out on top due to bits variety and customization.

in old fluff, who were the Fimir friendly/allied with?

>>52158474
Nobody. Their story sorta tied with chaos, but beyond that they were always a wild card and never more than a minor faction.

>>52158474
They were Chaos, but no one really. They were swamp dwelling rape monsters.

>>52157395
Any Death armies except flesh eaters have little support for the same reason as elves, theyre tiny subfactions without all the tools for a army.

Just play Death alligiance, spamming bloodknights as battleline isnt the smartest idea when you have access to skeleton hordes. Just buy 2 SC! of either Death faction you like and get 2-4 boxes of ghouls/Skeletons and youve got yourself a nicely working 1500-2000 army for around 200 bucks. If you really want Bloodknights get any armoured cavalry Kit (ELf Dragonknights Chaos-Knights etc) you like and buy a Death-upgradekit and youve got yourself 5 bloodknights for ~40 bucks.

This is the List I am Running atm (1700pts)

Neferata
Vampire Lord
Wightking w/ Blade
20x Skeletons
20x Skeletons
20x Skeletons
10x Bloodknights


Possibly the best thing about pure-Death is that you can bring ALL THOSE models on your table and look at your opponent thinking which fuckers to summon in his face, without deviating from your main list you could summon Ghosts to deal with rend and high armour Zombies/skellies to tarpit. If youve got the Models and the wizards you can adapt to any opponent

>>52158497
Yeah. I think destruction is a good spot for them. They are wild and unpredictable but are not beholden to any of the gods, which makes them a shuin for destruction. Besides, chaos has too much already

>>52158558
Sure, their lore is basically that Chaos ditched them to waifu humans instead, so Destruction is perfect.

>>52155459
Looking good Tim, you sick fuck

Is 20 bloodknights too many? because i now own them

>>52158992
Cheers mate

>>52159035
It is not, but running all 20 in a single unit is. They are one of those units that performs better in small separate units than big blobs

>>52159035
better tell me you got them either from recasters or kitbashed them

>>52155606
no pics at the moment but I've had a go with a couple of ideas, I tried almost pure black with some EXTREME red highlights and it kind of looked like ass, managed to save it by just repainting the whole thing dark blue and working from there

>>52155606
subtle red to orangey red blended a little into the black edging with a harsh edge of full reddy autumn contrast, itl look good and help define the details in the black.

>>52159267
I would left it black with some shades m8, but I'm sure you will make it good - for now it's great

>>52159184
So like 4 groups of 5 or 2 groups of 10?

>>52159243
Nope, Old Metal ones and they are sweet

>>52159756
4 groups of 5. That way, even if you lose one in each group each turn, you would be getting 4 models back from your banners, as opposed to only 2 if you only did 2 groups of 10

War.

Are low point games (500 or 750) actually fun? I saw few posts about them but never have a chance to play with such small armies. Which factions would fit this format best?

>>52159184
15 is the max unit size.

>>52160018
*Drops 9 Necropolis knights on his face*

>>52157149

Someone WITH the booklet. I'm not fond of warhammer quest and 120 bucks for lore is a no-no.

>>52158514
I'm another anon. I'm actually building Vampire counts force. at 1000 pts, it will be:
3x5 blood knights
1 vampire lord on abyssal terror.

My girl friend might kick my ass with her sylvaneths lol.

>>52160163
I've had a lot of fun with Vampire Lord on Zombie Dragon with full kit and 2 units of Blood Knights, yeah it's under but you get that sweet once per game triumph, also, it's stupid simple and fun. even if you lose heh

Anyone know where I can get some good looking dark elve alternate models.

>>52158514
Why bother with the Wight king? You have a vamp lord, for the command ability, who is was better/more versatile than a wight.

>>52160163
That list is great I have good fun with it.
I use this 15 Blood knights + VLOAT + Vamp Lord for general

>>52143058
does nobody have sauce on this? those girls are delighfully thicc

but you gotta make sure they dont get wiped in a phase

in bigger games larger units can be safer or just hit and run
