    3000 points Death-Bretonnia vs Chaos

    Multiplayer is always cool, AoS or not. It always takes forever to finish, too. I reccomend play it like 40k Apoc - play until a specified time, not turn, then end the game as it is and determine the winning side if you feel like it.

    Round Reaper says Salutations and Asks for Aid

    Welcome! The text below assumes you are going to play Pitched Battles (competitive, with point costs). Remember there are other modes of play. You can learn about all that in the General's Handbook. Spirit hosts you own are a good unit. Increasing their number to 6 can be worthwhile, but even 3...

    General handbook FAQ is out

    I would answer "yes" to both questions. Allegince is determined by keywords, not GH sections. At least I understand it that way. If in a future release there will be new units for existing factions (Stormcast Knight Veritor anyone?), they will not be in the GH, but will have the allegiance due...

    Aranei's AoS Mordheim

    I suppose that special deployment rules should be allowed. Remember that most (if not all) batallions cannot be used in my Mordheim since you can have only non-monster heroes in your warband. I would prefer fixing isues that arise as a result of playtesting, not trying to anticipate them. I...

    Age of sigmar

    I heared that Josh Reynolds has written a new novel about Nagash. It is called "Nagash: The Undying King". Exclusive edition will be sold during Warhammer World, starting on the 3rd of December.

    Death VS Sigmarines

    And I agree with you regarding the damage output. I can only recommend you to magnetize hands, so you will be able to swap them to keep acess to both units.

    Death VS Sigmarines

    Morghasts are summoned on a 7+. You don't need a 10.

    Death VS Sigmarines

    Sadly, the are no quality shooting in Death faction. You can try Screaming Skull Catapults + Necrotects. They are not very impressive, however, their main function being delivering -2 Bravery to enemy. There are skeleton archers too, but with no Rend, they won't kill much besides light infantry...

    Age of sigmar

    Wow! I'm going to ask to fix our broken artifact, the black amulet. Oppenheimer, this is a good opportunity to let them know your thoughts about battleline restrictions.

    The 9th Age 9th Age: The Rules Team wants our feedback

    I agree with you on this. I even wrote something like it in an another thread: ... ... https://www.vampirecounts.net/threads/the-9th-scroll-and-the-preview-within.30600/

    What do I actually need to start AoS? Rule wise

    General's handbook for sure. All the updated warscrolls for units can be downloaded from GW site for free. VC scroll thing is a bit outdated, but can still be used freely. You may also consider Death Grand Alliance book (thin, but cheapish) and the Flesh-Eater Courts book specifying the ghoul...

    best way to take out archaon?

    I'm sure that Morghasts can't be buffed by Vanhels, they are not deathrattle/deadwalkers/mordants.

    best way to take out archaon?

    I have encountered the new Archaon too, so I have a few ideas. Terrorgeists and zombo dragons (ridden, preferably) are not bad. My vampire lord dragonrider survived for 4 close combat rounds against Archy while dealing a good number of wounds in return. Do not ever let you 1-wound infantry be...

    The 9th Age Viability of Altar of Undeath (9th age)

    While I agree, I must point out that since the maximum casting bonus is limited to +3 in the 9th age, it used to not fully stack with wizard lords (2+2). They could make the tome only +1 to cast, but free, if they are adamant in their decision on casting bonuses limitation. I can't understand...

    Aranei's AoS Mordheim

    Since the beginning of the AoS 1,5 years ago, attempts have been made to create a ruleset for AoS-based Mordheim. None of them felt play-tested or finished however. This and other issues, some inspiration from Mordheim, AoS Path to Glory and Frostgrave, and a number of my own ideas caused me to...

    Bats In The Belfry

    I used to think like that until I played against stormcasts and blightknights (4+ save with re-rolls of 1 for order guys, 4+ with 5++ 'regeneration' save for chaos guys), and against Sylvanet (2+ save with healing). No rend means that they are kiling you much faster than the opposite. Believe...

    2000 pts - The Black Host

    I am participatinng in local regular AoS tournaments. While I'm not a sport-player really, for me the events are a great chance to play 3 games of AoS in a single day against extremely different opponents. Some may remember my earlier attempts to compile comething fun...

    Bats In The Belfry

    Bat swarms's shooting debuff can help against many armies, since almost every roster has shooting, with emphasis on it more often than not.

    Bats In The Belfry

    Hi, Necris Est! You see, it's not like we have any compiled tactica here, so bats are not the only units who lack any real coverage. Anyway, I generally agree with you. I must only add that, since fell bats have no rend, their many attacks won't help them much against units with good saves...
