I wanted to say something similar. Not long ago I painted highlights a bit too extreme and afterwards I had the feeling I ruined the whole model with it. Over some time (and some models) I reduced the highlights and stuff and came up with my current approach. I had the feeling that my miniatures...

Hey, guys! It has been a long time since I last posted a pic of a new model but at the moment I am working on a ghoul horde of 40 models and since I am a very slow painter this takes some time. Nonetheless I came up with this wraith. It was a gift from a fried who saw it on the internet...

When a thread is entitled like this, you might be expecting some useful information on how to use fast chaff. This time I hope that you can give me (and everyone else interested) this information. I am not entirely new and have played quite a few games and know by now how to use my black...

Lance is three models wide. You just need to be 5 models wide to get a rank bonus but otherwise there are no restrictions (just that every rank has to be the same width except the last one which can be smaller). The term lance formation comes from the Bretonnian Army Book. Bretonnian Knights...

Do you think you get this done, say, during the weekend? I see a few games coming in the near future and I would like to see some other opinions on the deployment and general behaviour of the units on the tabletop during movement. I always suck when it comes to deployment so any input would be...

For the most time your Blender Vamps and Lord will deal enough damage to make the +1 or +2 CR from your rank bonus seem useless but I don't see the point running them in lance formation (except when playing a bretonian themed list of course) for some reason. - First because of the rules for...

Hey and welcome, dude. I'm sorry to say and I really mean no personal offence but I love that everyone on this forum keeps their posts in a grammatical good shape. Unfortunately reading your post is a pain. I'm not a native speaker but like many others I try my best to write understandable...

Yeah, while posting this list I was thinking about the unit size of the knights. Since I just have 2 characters in it I think I will go with 10 or 11 knights and 6 wide. This leaves enough spare points for the MR(3) item. About the Charmed Shield: the description says, the first hit is...

This is my new llist, I want to try someday in the holidays. Here are my thoughts on this list: I wanted a fast key element in my army so I included the black knight bus and the level 4 Lord. I think you need a level 4 caster even if it is just for defensive matters. With this in my mind, I...

I think a level 4 (and a D-Scroll) is a "must have" for magic defense alone. I only take a Level 4 MN when I'm using a Ghoul King and then I don't use a knight bus. So, for me, a knight bus means a level 4 Lord. I've never thought if this costs me another vampire but I think I would stick with...

The statement that T4 and a 5+ armour save are equal is simply not true. It is equal just in the case that the incoming hit is S3. From S4 upwards T4 is better.

I agree with eggspr. If you're running a knight bus or CH (or something that is equally expensive and can be healed easily), a level 4 vampire caster ist a must have. Those knights are very hard to kill and to get back 5 of them in each of your magic phases is simply awesome. The most players...

Vampires and Necromancers just have a LD of 7, a Master Necromancer has LD 8. I wouldn't run a sniper death caster alone in a unit since you need a lot of luck to beat the LD of the most Lord level characters. I've used a lone level 4 death MN a few times and it worked fairly well. Of course...

I hope I have got this right: In the original description you used your current Leadership (not the printed one) only for the roll to wound, not for the subsequent armour save modification. Then they removed "when rolling to wound" so that the spell had an effect on the armour save as well but...

"Okkam’s Mindrazor is an augment spell with a range of 18’’ and lasts until the start of the caster’s next magic phase. Models in the target unit use their Leadership instead of Strength for all close combat attacks whilst the spell remains in effect (any Strength bonuses from weapons are...

I play it like everyone else in this forum seems to play it but... RFW says that no character can be targeted except stated explicitly otherwise. In other words there has to be the phrase "can be used to target characters" in the description. Neither tCoU nor IoN mentions this. So both...

Curse of the Undead says "models" because it refers to a single model even when it is part of a unit. But the word "character" is not mentioned in the text. A character not in a unit is, according to the BRB, a unit for himself, so IoN would target him. But like in the Lore Attribute, there is...

As I read your point of view I have to admit, this could be true. But I know that it is played otherwise all the time. Then again, why should the first paragraph of the RFW mention lone characters? Just because of the Lore Attribute? The description of the Attribute clearly explains that you can...

I included a Lvl 2 shadow caster Vampire in my 2000 points list for our next game and I hope to roll for PoS (if not, shadow is still a good lore). About death: I don't want to use a Lvl 4 MN in such mid-points games. I think it is much more important to field some badass Vampire Lord to kill...

Hey, guys! I had a game last week against Lizardmen with 1500 points. I lost. Not terribly I think but still. Since then, a few questions turned up in my mind and maybe someone could chew them through for me. So thanks in advance. - My ghoul unit of 30 was caught with a block of 20 saurus...
