or m as for unit i would go eiter with corsairs or spearman, the others get expencive very quick and what you want is a lot of lowstrenth attacks to get the benefit cold one knights cant as their base size (and the rules surrounding diffrent size bases in units) don't allow her to join following the...

Let me look at this, with just common sense. The shriek is an attack done in the shooting fase. So it would be a shooting attack. !! so stand and shooting with crossbows isn't a shooting attack, since it is done in the movement phase? The rules are clear its a special attack which can be done in th...

can opener, death hag, cauldron, rhune of khaine, obsidian blade

she's in my unit of 36 witch elves with the swiftness banner, and a death hag bsb withcry of war and rampagers standard, helps with 1+ saves, especially characters, and her points arn't lost if she dies

As I'm preparing for a battle with a single Metal sorc as my Lord choice, I was going through the itty gritty details of the Lore. I bumped into a few questions and would like to double check my reasoning. Plague of rust, the lore attribute, skullcrushers Some sources claim that plague of rust redu...

This also starts the fight often of that benefit of Khainites in unit giving the non Khainite stubborn for having the BSB there. I'd say yep to that too although purely RAW it would be no, as a mixed unit with a khainite model is not a khainite unit and a model in a unit is not a unit in and of its...

he is "only" 5 attacks, not to metion he will bein a unit of black orc's (its manditory. so definatly banner of murder, possibly hellebron (not in base contact with grimgor. ) hydra banner in unit. win throgh combat ress, buf with cauldron ward save. focus all attacks on the black orcs.

if one states that the weapon is a weapon of type X rather then a hand weapon (x being beastmaster scourge, great weapon, spear, lance,...) then I do believe it is otherwise stated. And I doubt anyone with a lick of sense would argue otherwise.

which is silly, why else would they define the type of weapon, i mean would they allow you to use crimson death onehander, because it doesn't have the halberd two hands requirement? would they they say you can't use dagger of hotek as a additional hand weapon even though it clearly states so? would ...

you're making a mistake with the stomps and thunderstomps, the other tricksters shard makes all models in base contact re-roll ward saves, it does not make all damage caused by your attacks to have their ward saves re-rolled. although it will rarely matter (except for deamons, phoenix guard and the ...

it begins with do bonus power dice a +d3 to casting result is not a power dice unless otherwise mentioned it isn't a powerdice, why they mention goblins is beyond me (i guess its because a d6 might be confused for a power dice, but then it does say cleary in the army book it isn't) a powerdice is a ...

allot of people work with a size chart, like a expanded chart similar to the system that warmachine uses, to make things easier. the most used form i believe is 0 swarms 1 infantry, warbeasts 2 cavalry, monstrous infantry, monstrous beasts, monsters, chariots, (i think monstrous cav as wel, but not ...

I also remember seeing 5 DR in its flank. So you can see how Steadfast might've been broken, okay first of all where talking 6 knights including a bsb and a champion yes?, and the bsb has a magical banner (hydra banner) AND the cauldron is giving them +1 attack so thats 21 attacks lets say 3 miss, ...

wel theres a few. skaven. gray seer on foot in a unit of 30 clanrats with a bsb with storm banner. 2 more units of clanrats, same size, all with a poison wind mortar. The grey seer would have 4+ ward and a powerscroll. then you have 2 units of slaves 40+. 2 units of gutter runners with poison. a uni...

huh, thats right, weird. then again, its not unmodified or anything so I guess it makes sense to have it distribute wounds, rather then hits.

If you want some real hate. Use squig herds without squigs and watch the oponent rage when the gobbos explode ;-) yes with a rule called the squigs go wild, you would expect people to not accept when there are no squigs to go wild. although appearently it is RAW, using it without squigs or having i...

when aiming shooting attacks at a unit with a bell (or furnace) you must choose the bell (or furnace) or the unit as target. its one of the bell (or furnace) rules. then you do indeed randomize your 1 hit 5-6 is the grey seer (or plague monk), everything else is the bell (or furnace). as a models ow...

So after a very angry discussion on Warseer where I was pretty much threatened (Oh Warseer) on the topic of Squig Herds, I've decided to go around the non-warseer forums to see what others thought. So far, Ulthuan and Da Warpath are also split on the subject but less against than those who "do...

But if you absolutely need to take 1 guy or 2 guys out to reduce the unit (say below US5) then the RBT may offer a more reliable outcome. Unit strength doesn't exist anymore in 8th ed. very true, although it is still somewhat relevant, rather then reducing unit strenth you could kill one or 2 model...

the beastmaster scourge is not a hand weapon. handweapons are the weapons that you get basic. otherwise all mundane weapons could give you a parry save (but its only with a hand weapon). hand weapons are explained somewhere in the weapon section.

following the rules for banners the faq. If a buff or debuff from a spell, banner, ... affects a unit, all models, including characters are affected, unless otherwize stated. following this logic the beastmaster could have a total of 7 attacks 3 + one for hydra banner, 1 for bms, 1 for cauldron and ...

So now we're nitpicking as to when a character looses his status as a unit? Okay, I'm tabling this discussion until we hear officially from GW. Because I can't see your point of view, and you obviously don't see mine either, and this is going to devolve into something less civil before too much lon...

no no, stop it. the character is still khainite the unit he joined is not. neither is the character himself a unit, if he joined a unit. the cauldron only gives stubborn to khainite UNITS. if the cauldron would give stubborn to khainite models, then it would work. but it doesn't. the assassin, when ...

you get the +1 bonus, although thats a annoying point i never got with mindrazor. you ignore strenth bonusses from weapons, and impale is a special rule, not a weapon. the thing that irks me is that you still get other weapon bonusses. like poison and additional hand weapon. even though you are tech...

thats not what its about either. character alone = a unit with the khainite special rule. character in a unit = a character with the khainite special rule=/= a unit with the khainite special rule. the cauldron only gives stubborn to UNITS with the khainite special rule. RAW you get no stubborn. The ...

no it follows the spell the steed of shadows, which exists in the newly updated basic rulebook. by that argument, every spell, every special rule and every reference to the basic rulebook, which was unfaqed, should be checked on in the 7th edition book, because thats when the rule was written. even ...
