I want to play 1000pts games and do it as budget as possible. Which one will be better?

>>53111764
Good point.
Just thinking how would underwater creatures work on land maybe in the lore they could create a water magic were the creatures have a bubble of water around them powered by mages or some sort of magical trinket to let them breathe air? But then how would they move on land?

>>53111776
Sylvaneth gets you closer at 552 points for the contents of an SC box as opposed to Ironjawz at 440. The difference will be made up once you start factoring in other units, however. I would really, sincerely encourage you to go for whichever faction appeals to you most.

>>53111776
>>53111851
Also worth mentioning that Sylvaneth has a "hidden" cost in the ammount of wyldwoods you'll need to buy for them to work properly.

But as the other anon said, focus on the faction you want to play more,

What are razordons like? Haven't seen them talked about much

>>53111851
>>53111883
Well, with IJ at least I know how much should I spend to build an Ironfist. Sadly, have no clue how to brew a passable Sylvaneth list builded-up around the start collecting box

>>53111958
Ironjawz are much less common and more interesting on the table than Sylvaneth, imo, but if you're playing with one tight group of friends rather than going for pickup games at your LGS then that's less of a concern for you.

>>53112022
This will never happen, sorry GW already confirmed that they will stick to Death's alliance name and never produce a miniature for them again.
Now buy our sky dwarves god damn it!

>>53112062
It's bullshit, but I believe it.

>>53112050
Nice shit you just pulled out of your ass.

Starting a seraphon army because dinos and shit, where should I go after the sc box? And should I build a carny or a troglodon? I'm aiming for 1000 points first then I'll move up to 1500

>>53112250
There's one Ironjawz player in my meta compared to five Sylvaneth players, which is why I concluded my statement about what I find more interesting to play against with 'imo'. I also said that the impression he makes on the randos he plays against is less important if said randos are already his buddies.

You need 3 battlelines for 1.5k games.

>>53111920
>I'm not the only new Seraphon player
Hype.
Razordons are a pretty cool gun platform but they are very easily blasted off the table, which is to be expected for 60 points
Don't do much in $ per model but pretty good anti-infantry in points per model

>>53112270
Get another SC box, build 2 carnosaurs.

>>53112564
I thought it was 3+ for 2k up.

>>53112748
You take the stats of the next level up. So 1.5k will use the rules for 2k.

the most budget army to play is beastclaws.
With two boxes, even if they cost 40-50 euromoneys, you'll have roughly 800pts that you can complete with whatever you want

Progress report on the Klad Barag!

This guy is really coming together. I have the limbs left to do, and still some work on the legs, but I can get an idea of what this thing is going to look like overall!

>>53112270
Carnosaur with Scar vet is best bet, Oldblood is cooler and shooty but so squishy for its cost. Scar vet is choppy and a bit cheaper (260 instead of 320)
Honestly the start collecting is a bit mediocre, Knights are pretty good and warriors are 100 points for 10 wounds with a 4+ and immunity to -1 so they're alright at sitting on home objectives.
Get a Bastiladon, Stegadon, build the Oldblood on foot from the spare parts in the SC, maybe pick up a Starpriest because THAT BEAUTIFUL MODEL and 2+/4++ Bastiladon that ignores rend is an absolute cunt to kill.
You can also build the Skink rider, paint it's flute gold and call him Oxyotl for a really fun Leader (he's from the legacy scrolls). There's also plastic snakes you can use as Jungle Swarms (120 points, 5 wounds, 5 attacks, mortal wounds on hits of 6 and they're also Legacy Scrolls) if you have some extra bases around
Tl;dr you can squeeze 980 points out of the Seraphon SC if you want without overpaying for units by just adding 2 50mm (jungle swarms), 1 32mm (foot vet) and 1 25mm (Oxyotl) base
-Oldblood Carnosaur (320)
-5 Knights (120)
-10 Warriors (100)
-Scar veteran on foot (100, uses the Oldblood warscroll)
-Oxyotl (100)
-2 jungle swarms (120 each)

>>53114704
it's errrr models killed per game?

>>53114730
Why the fuck are you taking 20 chaff models for your opponents Archaon to chew on then?

>>53114788
idk man just built with lying around models.
and he needs a meat wall so he can swoop over and kill the other archaon in an epic dual

Someone can make a pure groots list with any chance of winning against battletome armies?

>>53114730
>Not playing beastclaw raiders

>>53114822
yeah i know but ain't beastclaw raider player looked down upon

>>53114730
It's either one of the following:

>you have no idea what you are talking about
>or the TO is the stupidest motherfucker on the planet

Determining winner by models killed would mean armies with low model counts, like beastclaw, would absolutely dominate.

Generally tournaments are more focused on kill-points (counting the points costs for all units you killed, and most points wins), or objectives (like most of the GHB scenarios)

>>53112912
It needs either a pair of small endrins or proximity mines between his legs

>>53114788
Archaon (700)
Blood warriors x5 (100)
Blood Warriors X5 (100)
Herald of Nurgle (100)
Leaves only 11 models for the opponent to kill, one of which is at least somewhat resilient. Not that I believe "models killed" is actually the goal. It'll either be points killed (in which case Archaon will be in every list that can run him) or objectives (in which case you'd be an idiot to run Archaon unless he's backed up by maximum Pink Horror spam)

>>53114847
wow calm down man it's just how it is

>>53114480
This would be better I think with double horrors, one with Arcane Transformation and one with Fold Reality. Then Treacherous Bond on Archaon.

>>53114862
and/or an anchor

>>53114868
>>53114874
ty guys could do that but idk
maybe could even not be part of a grand alliance would that work?

Hmm I wonder whats the best way to assassinate an Archaon? Sayl with double flamer Stormfiends?

>>53114906
What kind of tournament is this? Are you telling lies on the internet anon?

>>53114868

>>53114939
Kroak :^)

>>53111920
Great for clearing low armor units. Lots of shots for only 60 points, but wounding on 4+ is lame.

2D6 Rend-1 D1 for 60 points - compare to Bastiladon which is 2D6 Rend-1 D2 for 300 points. Razordons are definitely more cost efficient damage output.

It's easy to keep a squad of 2 or 3 near your front line to get that countercharge fire.

Combo with a Starseer to reroll the countercharge dice, and an Astrolith Bearer to reroll hits.

>>53114970
>>>/r9k/

>>53115025
nah it ain't got /aosg/

>>53114939
Any artillery unit works fine. Stormfiends, Longstrikes, Skyfires, etc.

>>53115008
Max damage kroak can do is 3D3 (arcane bolt + comets call + celestial deliverence). Not nearly enough to snipe Archaon.

>>53115022
Bear in mind that a Bastiladon's hard as nails though, you pay the points for the defense not just the shooting. Razordons are a great gunline though

>>53115063
I never said bastiladon was bad

Everyone knows bastiladon is good damage output, Im using it as an example to show that razordons are even better at doing damage

>>53115054
>Not going triple deliverance for 3D6
Pussy

>>53115054
Hypothetically in one turn with something people commonly would run. Archaon can eat 24 Longstrikes or Skyfires and still be sitting there.

so what army is everyone playing / working on now?
Im working on my skaven one now

There is no official way of running 1.5k, so it honestly depends on who is running the game.

I'm thinking of starting a Chaos army as a painting project but I still want an army that won't automatically lose every single game, I'd very much like to paint up the Keeper of Secrets from forge world, think it's better to go completely daemon or to have a mix of mortals too?

>>53117898

>>53120259
I wanna get some Warherd and Brayherd for narrative play. I like the idea of a big bull with a drum being the primary war instrument in a forward marching army.

I also have the headcannon of Bray/Warherd's primarily throwing their allegiance behind Be'lakor who's leading a faction of Chaos against Archaon, endorsed by the Chaos Gods to try to keep Archaon from becoming too powerful and challenging them.

Winged beastmen when? Do you think when they come out they'll just be gors with wings, or an actual separate faction of beastmen?

>>53120926
I like what I'm reading on the Be'lakor idea ---

>>53121083
Considering you sorta-have Skyfires for flying beasties, and they got rid of harpies, I feel like it's not super likely?
Related note, I wish there were more ways to debuff Bravery? I feel like it's a really underused mechanic; Bravery is what it is and is used for Battleshock, and that's it. Aside from Banshees screaming things to death and units finding ways to be immune to battleshock altogether, it feels like they don't really do much with it.
>tfw you will never design an army around stacking multiple Bravery debuffs and reducing Ld 10 units to the point they flee like Ld 4 Ungors from a single casualty

compared to what?

Hi guys, 40k player here (Necron, ork, Grey Knight, Chaos Space Marines and Skitarii), decided to finally dust off my preordered AoS starter box and get into it, because I heard it was pretty lax about creating your own army/ stormhost. Been looking around online, have an idea for a Stormhost and even a color scheme in mind, but I thought I'd ask you guys a few questions before I go any further than green-stuffing my Stormcasts mouths shut (I like the smooth look under the nose, makes them seem more intimidating).

My Stormhost is going to be fluffed as a mix between deathwatch and rubric marines; Stormcast who have been reforged enough to have lost almost all of their humanity and sense of self, becoming single-minded chaos-slaying machines that are given to the Stormhost to perhaps find a place they can still serve dutifully, as their dulled states cause tension in their original hosts.

After a few days of researching more of the fluff (I have the Battletome pdf, generals handbook, and the starter set book), I'm still left with quetions;

Exactly how many of each 'lord' can a single stormhost have? Can a stormhost have, say, three Lord-Relictors? I mean, freeplay notwithstanding, is there any specific rule that says only 1 Lord-Relictor per army? Same thing for the knights, are they too limited and I merely can't find the lore that provides the basis?

Do stormhosts have any other heraldry besides the chamber symbols? I vaguely recall having a photo where, upon closer inspection, the Stormcasts had unique little coat-of-arms on their unbeveled shoulder.

Can a stormcast be moved from one stormhost to another? I would assume that, given the lore, they are less bound than say Marines or Imperial guard to their core unit, as there is no genetic tampering or conscription going on with Stormcasts.

Sorry for being so new to this side of GW, too busy spending rent money of 40k factions to follow closely until about a week ago. Any answers would help!

So I've been trying to trade off my Seraphon SC box but haven't had any luck, so I figured I might keep it if nobody is going to trade me.

So where do I go from here with the box as far as next purchases? Slann? Starpriest? Temple Guard?

>>53123277
>Exactly how many of each 'lord' can a single stormhost have? Can a stormhost have, say, three Lord-Relictors?
My understanding is that stormhosts are basically space marine chapters, with chambers being companies. Difference is, I don't think there's any set number of chambers for each stormhost. So while a chamber may have a limited number of lord and knights, there could be any number of them spread across the stormhost as a whole. So on the table, there's nothing really stopping you from fielding a bunch of lord and knights of the same type other than your own narrative.
>I mean, freeplay notwithstanding, is there any specific rule that says only 1 Lord-Relictor per army? Same thing for the knights, are they too limited and I merely can't find the lore that provides the basis?
There is no rule limiting you.

>>53123277
you can bring as many hero (or lord) choices as you want (up to a maximum of 6 in a 2k list) unless the choice is specifically stated to be one of a kind.

Some Stormhosts have unique symbols, like celestial vindicators. And GW do sell upgrade kits if you want those.

I am pretty sure a stormcast can be moved from a host to another (I think there are examples of them being moved between chambers so it shouldn't be the biggest deal)

>>53123456
If you want to trade of your stuff i wouldn't continue with your army. Seems like you didn't have the motivation to start them and are only now continuing since 'it's laying around in my closet anyway' which I can tell you won't keep you motivated to paint your whole army.

Just cut your losses, or try to sell it later.

Epidemius is back in stock, but he's 30 fucking quid. Not paying that for finecast shit, how would you kitbash him?

I need him to be a Tallyman of Nurgle, but he doesn't have to look the same as I'm not fluffing him as THE Epidemius

I've been getting back into wargaming recently, and after my first 40k game in forever last week I feel like giving AoS a go as well.

I've still got my Ogre kingdoms army from 6th edition (I think, whenever they got their first army book), does anyone have some advice on a 1000 point and 20 point army list from the following:

>Tyrant
>Butcher
>18 Ogres
>6 Ironguts
>6 Leadbelchers
>40 (I think) Gnoblars
>Scrap launcher

I could have sworn I had more, but it was so long ago I can't be sure.

I'm also wondering whether I should stick with this army, or use this as a chance to start something new. Beastclaw raiders look amazing, as do those new Tzeentch dudes, but I don't know much about the millions of factions playstyles. I love my Sisters of Battle in 40k, is there anything that would be kind of similar?

>>53125081
You have everything you need for a good 1k list. Go with tyrant & butcher, 2x3 or 6 brutes, 3 ironguts & some shooters

..........Are you serious?

>>53125152

Cool, so you'd go with 3 Ironguts and 3 leadbelchers, rather than 6 Ironguts?

Also, since I'm going full Gutbusters, would it be viable to take Leadbelchers instead of Ogres?

>>53125216
Leadbelchers are pretty killy.

Three of them swisscheesed 14 of my 30 dwarf warrior block once.

I don't know dude, I have an Ogre Kingdoms army too and from what I've seen, I'm not liking it.

>Cuck owner of a wargame store in desperate need of selling units tells me with a straight face that I should consider Age of Sigmar and buy a couple of round bases.
>Be polite and tell him that I will consider what he said and look it over when I get home.
>Have an huge army of Ogre Kingdoms.
>Take a look at some of the free Warscrolls.
>Ogre Kingdoms no longer has fucking named Lords/Heroes anymore.
>Greasus Goldtooth was killed during the end times. He's not even sold as a unit anymore and no longer applicable for an Ogor army, unless you have such battered wife syndrome that you include him anyway even though he shouldn't even be in your army.
>Skrag the Slaughterer has turned into a regular ordinary Butcher. A Butcher who gets a extra trait cause of the pot.
>Bragg and Golgfag has turned into a regular ordinary Maneaters and can choose any abilities they want at random.
>Check out the 1d4chan page for Ogors tactics, and it's literally a desperate faggy attempt to appeal to old Warhammer Fantasy players using old Warhammer Fantasy Heroes and unit names.

What incentive do I even HAVE to fucking pick up Age of Shitmar?

>>53125374
>Buy round bases
While they are superior, why the fuck does he suggest that?

>>53125374
You can use your models to play a game with more than that one guy who decided to "stick it to the man" and moved to 9thAge?

>>53125417
Money of course.

>>53125374
It's free and you can use your old models again? Also even though your dude died he probably didn't, the end times fluff is basically some multi dimension time stream bullshit so that no matter who or what is in your army it's totally possible fluff-wise. (Aka the fluff is so shit it ignores itself most of the time)

They seem pretty good considering they don't cost that much more points.

I always wanted to use more of them since they fit my armies fluff (They worshipped the volcano they lived on in the mountains of mourn, and traded heavily with chaos dwarves)

I can never help but wonder what beastmen taste like. It's like... beefmen. Beef is flavourful and rich, human meat is supposedly tender, sweet and near-odourless. And then there's chaos flavour in there. What does chaos taste like?

>>53125374

that is it

>>53125633
I'd say mixing ketchup and brown sauce is pretty chaotic so maybe that?

Depends on the chaos god.
Nurgle is rotten. It simultaneously makes you terribly ill, and immune to all disease.
Slaanesh is just the most deliciousness ever imaginable and makes you a pervert instantly. Not the good kind of pervert, obviously.
Khorne is metallic, like blood, with extra calories, and anabolic properties.
Tzeentch warps your mind. The most hallucinogenic properties imagined and then exponentially more powerful effects than that.

>>53125767
Only if his base has an inscription spelling "Oxyotl"

Brand new to aos. Im playing chaos dwarfs and want to branch out to more chaos. I notice that chaos is all part of a grand alliance but everybody is in different sections like "everchosen" etc.

My question is can i just use whatever o do i have to stick to a particular section? I cant find anything in the generals handbook about it but i noticed in like battlescribe you can declare a particular faction like "legion o azgorh" but im not certain what that does.

>>53126303
you can use whatever you want as long as it has the chaos keyword (everything does).
So you can play skaven with khorne etc.

The only reason to get more specific is fluff reasons, OR if there is a new battle tome out that gives additional benefits for getting specific (see disciples of tzeentch , blades of khorne etc)

I was thinking of putting a force together but no individual army really does it for me so I have to wonder how bad it is to mix forces. I know you can but that doesn't mean one doesn't lose something for doing so. This is assuming point structure and not narrative play. I was thinking of either going with Ironjawz with Moonclan Grots or A combination of Chaos like Tzeentch/Khorne or Tzeentch/Slaanesh.

I love Warherds and wish that they were a bit more competative. Their pathetic 5+ save makes them pretty garbage in this ranged meta.

I'm using their battalion in a 1k list because it looks interesting. I wish that the bullgors dident have Warherd only battleline because they're too expensive to take as a beatstick in 1k.

How would you do a competitive Warherds army? Maybe take 2 bullgors and a doombull alongside some clanrats as tax and some skyfires? I feel shitty whenever I take battleline as a pretty useless tax but I don't know what else to take.

I am painting my bulls like black and white cows. Trying to go for a Diablo 2 vibe crossed with some dairy cow themes on them. Pic is the banner I have painted for them. It's still in the process of being cleaned up but I like how it turned out overall.

So I'm trying to figure out the AoS fluff for a Chaos army, and I've got a question that I can't seem to find the answer to. The Skaven are part of Chaos now, but how well/frequently do they actually work alongside the other Chaos factions? It doesn't seem like the other guys respect them enough to actually combine forces with them despite being ostensibly on the same side, with the occasional exception of Nurgle via Pestilens.

Asking mostly because I'm looking to put together a mixed Skaven/Daemons army (probably Tzeentch or maybe Khorne) and I hate having armies that don't work lorewise.

Guys does anyone actually know what the aether is? They keep talking about it in the stormcast and kharadron books but it's not clear if it's warp related or just some weird magic thing.

Stormcast having capes that flap in the aetheric wind just sounds annoying as fuck though.

>>53128439
In the new tzeentch tome it says he is most likely of the gods to work with skaven, using them as his pawns.
So yeah go nurgle or tzeentch if you want skaven

>>53128506
gay shit that only gay shit armies care about

>>53123277

>extra reforged stormcast who are basically put in a penal host to step on proverbial land mines

Totally fine.

>how many of each lord can a stormhost have?

Dozens, a stormhost is closer in size to a 30k legion than a chapter. Each warrior chamber is around 500 guys and there's no hard limit to how many chambers a stormhost can have. The Hammers of Sigmar deployed tens of thousands of stormcast Aline when they were first thrown into the realm of fire to open the gates to Azyr.

The only hard limit is that there is one lord celestant and relictor per chamber and only one lord commander (he doesn't have a model or rules yet) but chambers fight alongside each other plenty so it's not uncommon at all for there to be multiple relictors on the field.

There is no rule that against taking multiples of of the same hero and the Lords of the storm battalion actually requires it.

Stormhosts and even the individual chambers can have their own heraldry and sub section colors.

>can a stormcast be moved from one stormhost to another?

It's never been mentioned happening but there's really no reason it can't. It would be like a marine switching chapters: rare but not unheard of.

No worries m8 if you've got any other AOS questions we're more than happy to help

>>53128506
All magic is warp related. The realms were created by the winds of magic which come from the realm of chaos.

What if... Clan Skyre get their own new stuff?

Aetherburrow Sky Py-Rats

They hunt Aetherwyrdstone with.their blimps.

>>53128768
>Dozens, a stormhost is closer in size to a 30k legion than a chapter.

Not quite true.
Chapters are ~1k
Legions are ~100k
Stormhosts are max 10k.

>Nurgle via Pestilens.
Their alliances are purely convenience and the fact they resist each others plagues. During the war of life each side was ready to betray the other, especially the Skaven. their goals were different, but the enemy was the same

Pestilens value the quickest possible path to results, like all Skaven to pause for thought is to die or fail,. Nurgle followers actions are slower and methodical

Pestilens is a wandering plague that seeks to cover as much ground as possible, spreading itself wide if thin. Nurgle is more invested in the waiting game, planting itself roots and being a sickness you cannot remove.

>>53128601
The Horned Rat is essentially the combination of Tzeentch and Nurgle and shares some of their traits this is both "canon" and 100% character design influence as old WDs dev interviews mention.

it's worth noting the realm of the Horned Rat is Gnawdwell, located 'beneath' the Gardens of Nurgle

I've been looking into using Bullgors as my main hammer to an army and I think it's just about getting the right buffs on them. They're movement is good, have a couple wizards for mystic shield and that chaos Sorcerer Lord spell and they'll be okay for survivability. They're many wounds should put off mortal spam at them. Get some meaty warriors for straight mortal wound resistance to tar pit or defend, then some ranged to snipe heroes and it should work alright. I wanna use a chimera but I think Tzeentch sky fires seem to be the best chaos ranged unit atm, depends how you wanna fluff it.

I feasibly think some giant cows could easily intimidate some wizards to help them out

>>53129069

Demigryphs are B/B+ tier but greatswords are A tier, it's totally doable

How will Stormcucks ever recover?

I am making my first 1000 pts AoS army with a HE army I bought cheaply second hand. Since I am yet to make any game I would like some advice.

Currently I am planning to go with this:
1 Archmage - leader
20 Swordmasters
5 Reavers -battleline
5 Reavers -battleline

The swordmasters will be main shredder melee line, and I will use the archmage to cast his protection on spell giving them more saves.

The reavers are the battleline and mostly going to be used harass big things that I think can be threat to my swordmasters (heroes, monsters)

Now I have a bunch of points still left and I am undecided what to bring, either:
20 Spearmen for a light melee blob pit
or
10 Spireguard to use them as bowmen that can fight in melee
or
1 Repeater bolt throwers, mostly to support reavers on hunting big threats with it's bigger shot

Which one would be more advisable to take?

Literally all of those named characters have AoS warscrolls and points for matched play.

Not unless your entire army is MORTAL NURGLE, in which case your daemons disqualify you from that.

Bullgores have the word bull in their name.
Stormcucks are the cucks. Bullgores are the bulls

>>53131155
This reminds me about the stupid debates about whether it was okay to go 10/20 points over in a list. I presume that arguement stopped when tournaments started cropping up with 1000 as a hard cap?

>>53131261
>Other factions stand in the cuck shed, they're too weak for Chaos

Bulls

>>53131261
well aint the bull fucking the cucks wife which is like fighting the other mans fight and once your a bull for someone wouldn't that mean you can't return to a peaceful life?

>>53131281
If you're cucked by Bullgors will your wife's son be 1/4 cow?

So are Ironjawz any good? They look great and look like they rend like a mother fucker, but kinda slow and not very magic-y. How well do they actually play?

I'm considering getting into AoS having played 40k for many years.
The new dwarf dudes look decent., but how are they rule wise? (I dont require something strong, but I dont want to play something utterely weak)

>>53131351

They're actually incredibly fast with their ironfist battalion and destruction allegiance trait, they just lack any sort of non magical ranged and they rely on wound soak to tank things. They do hit unbelievably hard.

They're kinda mid tier, competitive lists will shoot them off the board but they do fine against casual lists.

Completely playable and have some great sculpts, don't go crazy with goregruntas though


>>53131028

Tbh they cucked you out of your entire fantasy setting

>>53131356

They're not weak and their core infantry are some of the best battleline in the game.

Very shooty, a little squishy. Fast with their blimps. Can deep strike

I'm just playing with my friends so 10 or 20 points over the points cap is no big deal

Hi! I'm new to AoS and I used to collect Khorne during fantasy. Is this list semi-ok? Going to play first match tomorrow!
I just wonder that can I, if needed, retreat with my skullcrushers and use bloodtithe to charge them in enemy command phase to possibly deal mortal wounds?

Allegiance: Khorne

game will be shit without objectives and some regular doods, but youll learn the rules.
Try to get 1000 points and play objective games for most fun

>>53131470
sorry man got dyslexia

Did anyone play WQ hammerhal?

Can you spoil the setting and the slaanesh stuff?
I hear it talks about how regular people live in AoS as well

>>53131487
With no HE experience I'd say:
Have you got ranged
Have you got speed
Have you got rend and a high damage base
Does everything not rely on a easily sniped hero / totem

Hit all those and you're golden. Not sure if phoenix models are HE but they were mentioned a few times as being really good if you've got points spare

Swordmasters.

Well Archmage is fragile but they key for the army is the swordmaster blob

>Not sure if phoenix models are HE
They are but do not not own any, The only things I have not mentioned in that post is 10 White lions and 20 archers

>>53131904
Looking at reavers warscroll, I'd say go for the bolt thrower. It'll either get focused and take heat from elsewhere or do work, where spearmencould end up doing nothing. That reavers move is insane

>>53132037
Yeah, I agree.

I was more inclined to go either blot thrower or spearmen. Bolt thrower seemed best but I was worried I might be bringing to low of a model count and my swordmaster core would get all the heat

Can anyone give me a quick rundown on how I can build a 1K Nurgle army without relying on the other chaos gods?

>>53132291
If you don't consider the great horned rat a chaos god, then do nurgle rotbringers for melee punch, and skaven pestilens for ranged.

>>53132291
Well you can buy the models or steal them and it generally requires super glue/plastic cement, a hobby knife and maybe some snips too.

Nurgle-marked Slaves to Darkness units are going to likely address most of Nurgle's issues to the best ability without going undivided fully. Chaos Warriors with Great Weapons give you a nice offensive punch, a Warshrine can help buff, Marauders on Horseback, Chariots and Knights can give you speed and range if you take the Javelins.

>>53132291
Put in some Nurgle Warriors of Chaos.

Current list build out of my old egyptian style Lahmira vampire army, mostly based on conversion work I wanted to show off on the table.

New to AoS so I'm sure there's room for improvements.

Allegiance: Death
Vampire Lord On Zombie Dragon (440)
- Deathlance & Shield & Chalice
- Artefact: Tomb Blade
Vampire Lord (140)
- Mount: Nightmare
Wight King with Baleful Tomb Blade (120)
Necromancer (120)
40 x Skeleton Warriors (320)
- Ancient Blades
40 x Skeleton Warriors (320)
- Ancient Blades
10 x Zombies (60)
3 x Vargheists (160)
Terrorgheist (320)

Total: 2000/2000


On a side note, in scrollbuilder I can't see options for selecting banners or shields for some models, such as the Wight King. Does it mean that a model gets everything regardless of holding a banner or not if it's on the warscroll or have I missed something obvious?

Who's the worst person you have played against and why?

>>53115955
What about the purple-blue shield?

>>53132291
Nurgle is weak until he gets a book. Everything he has is too slow and has no rend.

>>53112853
let's be real, it's only been 1 year since the turn around.

Hey guys, where can I find army composition rules for below-2k matched play armies? I am confus. Am I not supposed to take at least 3 battlelines to every game at 1000 points?

>>53133819
GHB p. 107 (Digital Version):

1000pts:
1-4 leaders
2+ Battleline
0-2 Artillery
0-2 Behemoths
Any # Other Units

Round bases or square for Darkshards and Dreadspears?

GUYS, can I still play with the Big Mob battalion in matched play? I've heard some rumours that they have changed that.

Supply and demand, idiot

I might be retarded, but I question about command abilities.

"COMMAND ABILITY In your hero phase, your general can use one command ability. All generals have the Inspiring Presence command ability, and some may have more on their warscroll."

Does that mean that only the general get to use a command ability?

>>53134605
Correct. Even if a hero model has a CA. Unless he is your general, he cannot use it. There are exceptions, like some battalions and Longbeards.

>>53134676
Welp..

That puts a downer on my Vampire army that is for sure.

Is there any point what so ever to having multiple vampires anymore then? Because I sure can't see it.

>>53134757
If you have 3 vampire lords, each one is a wizard. That means each turn you can cast mystic shield, and arcane bolt, and spirit blight. Also they are pretty good in melee.
