You can't take Sylvaneth Wyldwoods as part of your army. You can create them with whatever abilities, but you can't take them like units.

They are also 0 points if you have the Sylvaneth Allegiance, so there is no need for you keep aside any reserve points for them.

KO hater from last thread back to say I may have been too hasty with my judgement on them. After looking at the battletome closely I can see that they aren't that bad at all. GW put in alot of work with the details on the models and the lore is actually interesting. They aren't as cogs and gears as I first thought and I guess they are pretty original. However I haven't changed my opinion on the shitty fyreslayers. In fact after seeing the KOs the FSs look even worse in comparison. They are ugly, uninspiring and lazy. Their lore is lame, their aesthetics are shit and their rules are shit. They are easily the worst army GW ever put out in fantasy.
>>
>>53061000
>>53061123
Oh, also, while you CAN take the same spell twice if you want to, you can only cast it once per turn in matched play, so you may be better off taking something else on one of the mages.
>>
Would it overly complicate/break the game to try and implement some sort of "push" mechanic in combat?
Like, say I have a bunch of guys in a shieldwall in melee with another unit. Something like instead of attacking, they can push everyone forward 1-2". Same thing with I wish there was a middle ground between "stuck in place" and "full on retreat". Like a tactical step backwards.

>FSs look even worse in comparison. They are ugly, uninspiring and lazy. Their lore is lame, their aesthetics are shit and their rules are shit. They are easily the worst army GW ever put out in fantasy.

This

KO's make Fyreslayers look even more embarrassingly shit and i didn't think that was possible.

Those flying things you posted look at as bad as the Stormcast angel dudes, i feel flying units that aren't daemonic just flat out do not work visually in AoS, but i gotta admit the KO troops and ships look good.

Add an arachnarok and add webs and spider tattoos and face paint to all the ogres.

>>53061000
Dryads don't get the bonuses at 10 so only take them in units of 20 or more. Like the others correctly pointed out, Wyldwood do not cost points if you are a Sylvaneth allegiance, which you are. My Gnarlroot Wargrove is similar to yours and I have success with it. For another caster, I'd take either a Branchwraith or a Branchwych, either is fine, they will likely be your Mystic Shield/Arcane Bolt caster.

The only thing about the Overlords I have any real dislike for is the ridiculous top hat on Brokk Grungsson. It's completely out of place not just in the wider Warhammer setting but even within the Overlords themselves; he looks like some terrible cogfop steampunk character thrown into the middle of Dwarfs that are otherwise surprisingly true to the traditional Dwarf aesthetic.

No, of course not. They have zero mortal wound defense and a lot of very fast flying stuff can get on them and tear them up before they do much.

Remember that no one gives a shit about the offensive ability of anything in your list except those hunters. They are going to draw hammerstrike retributors and vampire dragon lords, and stormfiends etc.

Hes not wrong, theyre pretty weak.

100 points for 5 1w models with no mortal wounds save is terrible. Thats why the eternal starhost is a trap formation.

And as a bonus they keep getting worse as more high rend or mortal wound units are released. KO have -2 rend weapons on the battleline infantry.

5 wounds on a single model. You know thats still better than 5 single models? Because you dont lose damage output when you lose them. Theyre also cavalry, 2+ vs shooting, 3+ standard, which guard dont have, have mortal wound output, a shooting attack, the list goes on. And thats before taking into account their bonus damage rolls.

Your comparison sucks.

High save single wound infantry just arent good in a game where mortal wounds are abundant. And theyre even worse when theyre as expensive as guard.

Like the rest of the seraphon list, they were better when aos first came out and got worse as the game evolved.

Agreed. Bow Kurnoths are studs but artillery can knock them down, such as Warp Lightning Cannons, Skull Cannons, Organ Guns, etc. Bow Kurnoths are the closest to artillery Sylvaneth will get.

For example, I play against Skaven regularly, some of the best artillery in the game imo. If I had that list, I would get murdered. I would yank your 10-model Dryad for another 5-model Tree Revenant since those 10 Dryads aren't going to last long against anything. Revenants can take down the artillery fairly quickly and reliably before your Bow Kurnoths get taken down.
>>
>>53064601
I'm supposed to make an exact comparison with the fictional unit that does exactly the same thing as saurus in the same way but better to avoid your nitpicking then. Fine well just only take into account raw stats and assign unidimensional roles. Everything in the game is trash except Storm Vermin, Skyfires, Stonehorns, and Plaguebearers. Everything in Seraphon is trash because something else does it better.

Nah, nothing interesting. These Anon >>53065114 probably get it right. We are very into BDSM so the safeword is a vital and necessary "feature" for us. She is pretty fucked up like me no tipping - we are just lustful so she never used a safeword, even when doing really perverted stuff. Somehow she was reacting very aversively to the any mention of warhammer. You know - highschool, bitchy nerds with greasy hair and shit. She loves tabletop games, play MtG etc but somehow every warhammer player she met in her life was just a huge dick. It took me a while to talk her into play few games with me and other people and sinking into lore inb4 le AoS lore meme but at least I started to understand what is the problem with females and WH.

Apparently it turns out that AoS was just a huge beta-testing for new 40k edition - GW copy-pasted like 50% of AoS rules into 40k 8th edition (magic, battleshock, 3 ways to play game and few other)

Uh, I didn't mean that it is something bad just to be clear. AoS turned out to be great game and I'm looking forward to see next updates and stuff. With new 40k rules it will be easier to make a khorne daemons army I was thinking about for a while

Most of my friends are female, the non gaming ones anyway. Ran an ultra-simplified version of Silver tower for them which was basically a glorified story where they rolled a couple dice. Just werent into it at all even though they asked me to find a boardgame to play. They were almost suprised by how many rules there were even though I cut out like 70% of the rules that werent move or attack.

Some people want to play games, and like the idea of playing games, but are just not interested in the actual playing of anything more complicated than cards against humanity.

Dragon Slayer/"Unforged"

Best dwarf model to ever exist, and it will never be topped. It is pretty much the pinnacle of miniature design.

But in-game it is terrible.

Unless you give him a relic blade and he is up against chaos. Then you can just buff him with your other characters and he will happily beyblade across the board, but that is REALLY specific set of factors.

A quick question about death. Please keep in mind I'm new to the game and might very well have missed some obvious info, in that case forgive me.

Acording to the general's handbook, death armies has the following trait:

Deathless Minions: The servants
of the rulers of the dead are all but
immune to pain, shrugging off wounds
that would slay a living creature. This
unnatural resilience is bolstered if their
lord and master is nearby, making
them even more difficult to kill. 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 from your army. On a
roll of 6 or more, the wound is negated
and has no effect.

However this looks alot like the Wight King's banner effect: Infernal Standard: Infernal Standards
are saturated with death magic, which
can sustain the undead. A Wight King
with an Infernal Standard has the Totem
keyword. Roll a dice each time a Death
model from your army is slain within 9" of
an Infernal Standard. On a 6, the magic of
the Infernal Standard sustains that warrior
and the wound that slew him is ignored. In
your hero phase, a Wight King can plant
his standard; if he does so, you cannot
move him until your next hero phase, but
until then the Infernal Standard’s influence
is extended to18".

My question is, do these effect stack or not? Seems really strong if they do.
>>
>>53067269
Its stacks roll for deathless then roll for the banner.
>>
>>53067367
Hot dayum.

With RotN thats stupidly good.

I don't get why people say Death is crap, this seems absurdly good with hordes and all the other stacking stuff.
>>
>>53062286
Don't forget the mustache gun
>>
>>53062286
If you pay attention to the hat, you will see that it has the runic icon of King on it. It is basically his "crown" to let everyone know he is the richest.
>>
>>53067419
Nah, I think they could get away with the moustache gun without the hat. The hat is just too much.
>>
>>53067387
There's a bunch of small problems with death that don't seem like a big deal until they start adding up.

In my opinion warhammer is everything that females don't like in tabletop games. You have to spend your time to make up a decent list, burn a lot of money (if you have no idea how to make it budget), the hobby itself seems to be messy and slow - most games look like dancing around the table. Pretty all my female friends prefer to play pre-constructed games or lcg with small card-base. If anyone of them (like my gf) is playing mtg or pokemon tcg It's because someone build the first deck for them and they are trying to improve it as long as they can. Most of my female friends are a fuckin beasts if we talk about boxed games like neuroshima hex, catan, munchkin and stuff like that but ask them to look for the cards on gatherer and build up their on deck and they will be bored as fuck. IMO most males are into hobby and collecting when most females are into playing pre-cons games

I think the gloss is a bit much. It does't really work on that sort of armour in my opinion. I think using pretty much any other shade will look better, as long as it isn't glossy.

Try to take a bit more care with the overalls as well, the shading and highlighting just seems random. Although I guess that is rich coming from me, looking at the Arkanaut I posted yesterday.

You have paint in the wrong place quite often as well, such as the gold on the helmet just above the eyes, and brown coming from his gloves onto his arm.
It would look better if you picked out the details, such as various belt buckles, the rivets etc.

Although I suppose those last two could simply be because you was testing the colours.

I'm working on the fluff to a slaves to darkness army but I'm struggling on incorporating the colours I want to the models.
My warband is an example of why chaos is so attractive; human warriors who are stronger and faster than the possible and achieve great feats. To the outside they appear like an army who have tamed monstrous beasts (see gore beasts and war herds) and have an ever growing empire. On the inside they're men obsessed with conquest who lose as much as they gain in their urge to own more new land.

The list is all mortal, with a few beasts around. I imagine peasants being awestruck as "tamed" Bullgors charge into an attacking orruk wave and save the day, backed up by legions of armed warriors. Displays of skill and suddenly these villages with no other aid are hooked.

My worry is how to get a white colour incorporated into the army. I looked at white army, but it can look bad so easily, especially on warriors of chaos. White cloaks work but with what armour? I've seen white on black before but that's more ominous than I'm hoping for.

Essentially, how can I get a good white scheme on StD
>>
>>53076465
>White cloaks work but with what armour?
Metallic with golden trims.
>>
>>53076465
Red or purple.
>>
>>53076497
I thought about stuff like that, thought you weren't meant to mix metallic though, I.e. have either gold or silver? After painting some fyreslayers I sort of see why people say that too yet some models look great with it
>>53076515
Red is a good complimentary colour but won't full red be too garish, especially for rank and file? Considering I want their excess to be slaanesh linked and use the old sigvald model as a dashing leader maybe I should look into purple a bit though yeah

just to add to what others have said, the "grand alliance" system makes taking mixes of different armies absurdly easy allowing even more flexibility to create whatever army floats your boat.

Archaeon is amaze-balls for sure but to get the most mileage out of him you really have to take max advantage of his command ability to let everyone else use their command ability and that is a pain in the ass to actually pull off.

So I posted a model yesterday and received a lot of horrified and memey comments about thinning my paints, mouldlines and so on. I did say it was a test model but only a few of you actually bothered to read that.

To the three of you that gave me helpful criticism, thank you. This is my second go - and again, it's a test model. Paints are thick from lots of layers, the highlights are too broad and I haven't cleaned the mouldlines properly. Looking for feedback on the colour scheme specifically - I tried Nuln Oil this time but I think it makes the armour too dark, going to try Carroburg Crimson next time.

Any advice on the stormcast unit sizes and formations? Given how they work, is there any benefit of MSU or big units? I was thinking just a bunch of little liberator units to stall till my Retributors or Star Drake can come in and munch them.

I would probably attempt to use either a less saturated red or beige. I think both of them at this intensity makes him look a bit busy.

What's with the "death is worthless" virus going around?

I just got into the game and got out my old Vampire army and, as far as I can tell, they seem strong as hell. big blobs with shittons of buffs, Deathless minion stacking with banner and so on.

I haven't even added any of my tomb kings yet and I seem spoiled for choice. Only thing that seem off is that Vargheist don't have any regeneration ability like the hunger or something, and that there are no smaller vampire option then "lord" when I wanna build a coven, and that's it.
>>
>>53082054
They're just an inversion of the Barak-Thryng colour scheme. I do like the red though, so that's probably staying.

>>53082086
I see what you mean. I might use a more desaturated beige like Rakarth Flesh for the undersuit. It's the metallics being too busy I'm concerned about - all gold or all silver looks too dull, but it looks a bit gaudy when they're mixed. I'll think on it a bit before trying my next one.

Have you considered an off white color or something like ulthuan grey? I'm not feeling the cream color that you have there. I'd put some lead Belcher on the toes of the boots to bring attention there as the black and brown looks really washed out (highlight black with eshin grey); it also achieves a steel-toed boot look which you'd expect from being a skydorf on an airship.

I'd also put some weathering on the metal bits but I like the worn, im-out-in-the-elements look.
>>
>>53082182
The gold silver should be fine if you just keep it as detailing, using the same bright silver on the edge for both helps to tie them together, whilst still keeping them separate.

Looks still better then skydorfs.

Big units of Libs can all get one lantern buff. If a Celestant is around with Staunch defender they are +1 hit and a 2+ reroll 1 save when they haven't charged. One big unit in a Vanguard Wing allows them to actually move around and keep up with Hammerstrike Paladins. With Bless weapons on a 15-20 blob and +1 hit they can actually do work.

I see no point in spending too much time on rank and file models when it comes to painting. They will be fielded by tens or twenties, and no one will ever look closer at them. They have to look good in group and that's it, and this is a perfectly adequate paintjob for that.
>>
>>53082165
Their mortal wound and -2 rend options are very limited. The Skeleton blob with 240 attacks is scary until they run up against a Tree Man ancient with stomp and 2+ reroll and literally 1 attack goes through.

No formations outside of FeC means you never have first turn choice.

A lot of points need to be blown on support heroes to make their units good. For instance Flayers to become good need a Nercomancer(120) Ghoul King(100) Varghulf(160) and the command ability from a VLoZD(440), and they are one of your only ways to project mortal wound generation somewhere where you need them.

They've got no range units and shit offensive magic. So something like killing a Bloodsecretor that is childs play for Stormcast or Tzeentch is really hard and annoying for Death.

VLoZD is the only option for offensive hammer behemoths since the Necrosphinx cost $300.

Most people decide to not bother actually making a Death army work and put 2-3 guys on the table and just summon Mournguls and Morghast Harbingers around instead since they actually function independently.

Thoughts on fluff for my scheme? Pic related. It was either gonna be that they paint their armor green to resemble the wyldwoods they plunder (they are inspired by how easily fire consumes trees, and so fight with the strength of a raging fire) or simply because they want to remind the other orruks that even with gray skin they are still the orkiest.

Saurus Warriors 100

I feel like building my Carnosaur as Oldblood was a mistake, didn't realise how expensive it was in points at the time.
I also own Terrain Riders and I think I can build a Scar-Veteran on foot

>>53075393
So I have bought a Spire of Dawn box with my friend - he took Aelves, I'm gonna stick with rats. Played few games and actually we like it more than expected.
We both want to play 1k games - our lgs community seems to be not very competitive so anything that is no auto-lose army will be ok. What should we do now? Buy and split a second box? If yes, what then? Buy a skaven start collecting for lightning cannon and bell? What about Aelves? Also shitty cosplay for attention
>>
So how does line of sight work? Specifically, would there be a block if units were in the way? I don't think that the rules specify so it looks like you can just shoot whatever you want.
>>
>>53083770
I'm not sure if oldblood carno is worth it, but I haven't used it so I'm not sure. From what I've read it seems like people think that carnos are expensive for what you get in general, but I'm not sure if that applies to scar-vets too. I've been wondering if I should buy a start collecting box so tell us how it goes I guess!

Played my first game of signature using that list and I got ravaged by Flesh Eater courts
Terrorgeist annihilated my Knights turn one
Courtier added 2 horrors to his unit of 3, who then charged and one turn killed my Carnosaur
Star-priest and Bastiladon held their own pretty well and warriors were just meat sitting on the objective so couldn't really go wrong

Terrorgeist are not for cuddling and summoning free models is not easily dealt with are the lessons I learnt. Oh and the Carnosaur is far squishier than expected

I know that the Seraphon Eternal Starhost is a trap, but if I'm going to be taking Saurus Guard anyway because I don't have any warriors right now is it really not worth it?

What armies are you facing and how much mortal wounds can they generate? If you are going against armies with lots of mortal wounds then they are crap. They are just too expensive at 5 wounds for 100pts + the battalion and warden cost. If you are facing something with only a few mortal wound then you can use something like a ripperdactyl to remove the mortal wound source then guards are rock solid.

Also keep in mind that with 20 liberators you have 4 grandhammers plus the extra prime attack as your front line which can do good work against other battleline.

In more realistic scenarios where not everyone in your blob can attack, this can really maximize your damage for your footprint. Plus they still get the reroll of 1 for saves if everyone else has shields.

If you're dead set on that particular red, try mixing a small amount of balthazar gold of leadbelcher into it to give it a metallic undertone or paint it as a non-metallic metal. The flat red paint makes it look like their armor is plastic or ceramic instead of metal.
