Not quite sure, it also states in the FAQ that you dont take damage when having pod power when you loose control...

Question remains, when turned in toad, you can't cast anymore is that also loss of controll...

I would cut some corsairs, give them the normal ahw option.

and change the master in a cauldron BSB, Corsairs with killing bow jikes, or if needed mindrazor with 3 attacks a piece...

Cauldron could also give save to coldone Knights or buff shades for a supprise kill.

2 units of 20 really, full command shields, that is 80 shots each round, and with cauldron support they are above average combat troops. and i still play 2 times 5 darkriders and 2 times 7 shades for harrasment. I think the Rcb warrior are the most all around guys in the list. anyhow you just need e...

I would Consider Cold One Knights or Blackguard.

I'm also a bit puzzled at the peggy guy, dont het get killed to fast without decent save?

What about swapping him with a cauldron BSB

Shades are good to think you need more disruption than just 2 units of Dark Riders.

Huh, that would make it massively overpowered for its points. But since flaming is so current, i quess that counts

If i'm not mistaken Handlers do now have 4 attacks a piece?

2 base, ahw and +1 from the new beastmaster scourge rules in th erratas?

giving total 8+7+D6 stomp attacks to the hydra?

N'Kari

I'm not quite sure that is correct.

The handlers are never targetted so there stat would not be used, rules clearly state that when the handlers would be targetted the hydra is targetted in stead, and you are then obliged ot use the beasts its stats.

Guys, dont make it that difficult.... jee Shadowblade Bsb on peggy full mundane with sword of might, khaleath; charge unit with the bsb, reveal Shadowblade, place him next to Teclis. If opponent challenges you take on with bsb, and live; then shadowblade proceeds to kill Teclis. In this scenario, yo...

But not purple sun. So that is good riddance anyway...

T2 actually, but Caredhryan has MR 3 so giving him a 4+ Ward save against wounds.

Charge the unit with shades and challenge assassin in, then take flank with a dragon lord and use tricksters shard, he won't like that much. Make sure the assassin touches teclis, if he challenges, kill the challenger. and try and do some extra wounds, then beat on unit with dragon, breath, lord, st...

Lists over here have gone up to 2.2k points, thanee took the equipment of Sorc into consideration, so here goes: 1 Dread lord, Ha, Sdc, Sh, Co, Black Dragon Egg Crimson Death Pendant of Kaleath 1 Sorceress, Lvl 2 (Shadow) Tome of Furion Guiding eye 1 Death Hag, Cauldron 29 Crossbows, shields, Full C...

Hey, small discussion we came about, A Character on a chariot issues a challenge , I accept, so initiative order i start I announce using the breath. what do i need to do? Roll the dice and then randomiz between char and the chariot, or goes everything on the challenged char? What if this guys i a t...

Playing similar list, and building tweaking in a similar way. but first off some small problems.: if you play guiding, you need to put that sorcerer in a big unit, say 20+, i prefer to replace units of 10 rxb with 5 dark riders,rcb, muso to get to warmachines, vanguard is ace. secondly on your first...

Looks original but To many points in characters. Kairos is an absolute beast but one total power pit or sun will kill him almost 90% of the time (I1) and this is easy to achieve. Dunno how much points everything costs, but i really think that a 40 man horror block with loremaster herald, life magic;...

Busy thinking about armylists, and how to make them so you can reliably do scenario's and have a fighting change against all lists, without making one trick ponies. so here goes: Dreadlord, Full mundane, La, Cold One Black Dragon Egg Pendant of Kaleath Whip of Agony * will join the cold one unit, to...

Been working further on the idea of the list and this is the defenite list I will start testing, unless people think that it aint worth anything. So with this in mind I remade the list, with comments, thoughts on the choises and very brief tactic and playstyle idea here goes: 1 High Sorceress Lvl 4 ...

Thanee, Template weapons maybe, but some spells will rip to that unit like no tomorrow. Plague from the skavens, Dwellers not that effective but can still bring the pain. First metal spell will rip through it also. I think that with Dark Elves, it all comes back to small units, supporting each other...

This is one of the situation you can exploit when combo charging with a hydra and dark riders, many people fear the charge of that thing when it has not yet used its breath attack... Possibly mulitple flees can make more of his units panic. Intresting tactic to be used against gunlines, this can run...

Been to a first tournament of 8th edition, didn't play as i didn't have all models yet. What was there: High elves (5+), toting seaguard, Swordmasters, white lions, magic some using dragon, or chariots/Knights Lizardmen (2) playing Slann Bunker (one on 2nd place) Skaven (2) going on 13th spell and e...

Using this general, to it is either scroll on purple sun, or kill the opposing wizard with scrolled fate of bunja.

Using a Lvl 2 wizard as backup with shadow is worth the investment it think, altough part of me wants to take metal for some situations.

Can we have a positive answer on this from a judge or something, as this has been topic of discussion lately at our place to.

N'kari

@ Dalamar Dal I think you mat is slighly off: 7 power dice average, 2 or 3 powervorex, 6 or 7 channel, that will net him 12 powerdices almost every time, as due to the list there where 7 wizards on table. also Loremasters ignore the rule that you can have a spell only once, as far as i read the book...

Been toying a round a bit with the list this is the version i'm going to play: 1 High Sorceress Lvl 4 (Dark) Pendant of Kaleath Lifetaker/Powerscroll Dark Pegasus 1 Death Hag BSB Cauldron of Blood 1 Sorcerer, (Metal) Guiding eye 24 Crossbows, shields, Full Command 10 Crossbows, shields 10 Crossbows,...

What about this would this be any better? 1 High Sorceress Lvl4 Dark Pegasus Pendant of Khaleath 1 Hag BSB Cauldron of Blood 1 Sorceress Lvl2 Guiding eye 24 Rxb Full Command Shields 10 Rxb, Shields 10 Rxb, Shields 6 Shades ahw 6 Shades ahw 6 Cold Ones, Full Command Flaming Banner 1 War Hydra 1 War H...
